UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

Atletico Madrid played really bad against Feyenoord today, i was expecting to see a easy win from them, but they have to defend until the last minute, and when i see the Feyenoord goalkeeper going to the Atletico goal in the last minute i think "it cant be twice".

About Newcastle game, what to say, its a non sense team, against Milan they play really bad, and against PSG they were really good.

I disagree because first game which Newcastle United played was their first under coach Eddie Howie, and they were under pressure but still they have done good job which helps them for having confident and now against PSG they were right on spot which helps them for having result like this mostly where feeling we will have 2 or 3 goals but at the end they were able to expose PSG defence and done impressive job with now leading the group as well.

Milan playing defensive games on road with in last night they still have a match which ends without any goal mean they are doing just OK job for having acceptable results because they can do much better at home against these teams for having better results which will help them for having good chance for the qualifying into next round.

Can't just explain what went wrong with Les Parisiens but it seems that the players are not fit or suffering from fatigue. They were relatively outsmarted and bulldozed by the Newcastle player. I know Mbappe can't wait to leave this club because he needs to chase his dreams somewhere else.

PSG is lack of good players, there are still many mediocre players in their club. Take a look with Newcastle where they don't have any super stars, but all their players are in good quality.

I disagree for Mbappe can't wait to leave PSG, if he want to leave PSG, he wouldn't renew his contract until 2026.

PSG will not able to win Champions League as long as they only focus to sign star players.

PSG fans shouldn't be dreaming of their club winning the Champions League trophy this season. There have been good quality players in other seasons and it's fine to dream about them but to dream of winning the Champions League trophy with the players we have this season is like dreaming.  

PSG won the first match against Dortmund because Dortmund's performance has been very poor this season but we predicted before the match that PSG's match against a team like Newcastle will never be easy. At first I was a bit hesitant to bet for Newcastle but then I bet for Newcastle and I won that bet.  
Not only did Newcastle get full points but they beat PSG by a huge margin.

PSG does not lack players, some famous players are already in the squad so there is actually no need to doubt, it's just that sometimes their strategy is not so effective when competing in UCL, in contrast to Newcastle, this team was able to rise from adversity with makeshift players now Newcastle looks stronger and was even able to beat PSG last night.

Hearing the news about Mbappe will extend the contract, the chances of him moving clubs are getting smaller because the management continues to convince Mbappe.

The problem is in the UCL competition which PSG is still unable to pursue, when it comes to the domestic league I think it's different, but when in the UCL the players look difficult to win.

PSG is famous for signing star players, but sadly they have never been able to use this option for the better results many coaches around here for them but still mostly are unable to bring positive results which is surely miserable for them in this team we have few quality players, but sadly they have no strong mentality and soccer chemistry which helps them for having good results here now time for the management and coach to sit and talk about these issues because without solving them most chances they will be struggled and not able to have good results.

Mbappé saga will be on until he is here because it's the good masala for the many media houses which are creating feud and have every time different news about this even right now issue is PSG performance not his transfer as he is already announced he will stay here until his new extended contract ended.

In this season with this performance things are looking not easy for the PSG because they are fail to have good results in Ligue 1 and now this big defeat creates too many rumors how things will be settled nothing is clear.

Interesting how everyone here is discussing the PSG game last night... But to be honest, I'm not surprised that Newcastle were able to destroy them... PSG have a lot of problems now, while Newcastle are playing their first season in the Champions League and have already managed to make a good result... Seen jokes about Newcastle being the new Man City this season...

Newcastle had almost two decades without playing in such a prestigious competition like the Champions League is,of course they were much more motivated than PSG which has a lot of problems itself,in front of their home crowd Newcastle simply delivered yesterday night and what a delivery I would say,total destruction of a team like PSG.

As for them being the new Manchester City this joke I am afraid will only remain like that a joke,it takes ages for them to become the new Manchester City.

[SOKO-DEKE]

A very impressive victory for Newcastle United, they were the most doubtful team to qualify from this most difficult group but what they showed against PSG slowly changed their status into a team to be reckoned with and this big win proves that they can play in the Champions League this season is not only because the strong teams in the English Premier League performed poorly last season but because they have the ability to play in this prestigious competition.
However, the results of other matches in the same group put Dotmund and AC Milan below Newcastle and PSG. Dortmund not being able to get 3 points against AC Milan at their own home will put them in an even more difficult position compared to the other 3 teams in the group.

Seriously, Newcastle played very impressively yesterday, and they really performed more than my expectations because I never expected them to gain three points against PSG because of their reduction in their performances in their domestic league. Again, I see PSG as a very big club that Newcastle will find hard to defeat, but surprisedly, Newcastle won the game 4-1, and that was a crazy surprise I received yesterday. Currently, I can't say what will happen in the group, but with this performance, I will say that Newcastle have started creating ways to qualify for the next round because, as I view it now, Newcastle will try their best with any team in the group. If they can win, they will try to draw, but let's see how their next match against Dortmund will be.

English teams had bad results in the matches before yesterday, but they are in a very good place today. Manchester City and Newcastle United continued their claim in their group with two good wins. Especially Newcastle wiped out Paris from the field. They played great. They used free kicks and corners very well.

this group appears to be very balanced, although Newcastle appears to be a fourth tier team they managed to beat the strongest of the group i.e. PSG, I believe that Milan will have to do much better in this competition if they want to pass the group, in two matches he didn't manage to score a single goal, and scoring goals is very important for the league table. now they will have the double match with PSG who aims to win the group, so if they want to continue their path in the Champions League they will absolutely have to win against PSG

I never thought that PSG was a scary club, they don't have players who are good enough to play in the UCL therefore I never thought they could qualify for the final or semi-finals of the UCL, the clubs that are more respected in the UCL at the moment are Munich, City and Madrid, of course, these three clubs are more favored than PSG, Mbappe will never be successful if he stays at PSG.

I believe Mbappe needs a new club to make his name big again, if he joins Madrid it will certainly be better because Madrid will be full of talented young players so Mbappe can win the title he wants, apart from that Newcastle's victory cannot be said to be like City , because they have not met other great clubs, winning against PSG is not something great

It is true with what you said that PSG lost good high-quality players this season in contrast to Newcastle who are slowly improving their performances even though only with their players it could be said that none of the top players are that popular.
Previously I thought PSG would be the group leaders by winning every match but this was a bad match because losing 4 - 1 was a humiliating defeat.

I don't know what happened but in the last few matches Mbappe doesn't seem very enthusiastic about winning every match in fact he is usually the most dominant player now only doing his best to keep up with the movements of his teammates.
If they continue to experience conditions like this for longer time in this season maybe for League 1 and UCL they will not get anything and there is no hope that they can have anymore.

Yes it true I also not sure PSG will be able to win the UCL if they still don't make any progress.
At the start of the UCL group phase match I thought PSG could be better but in reality it was all just a dream that was difficult to come true.

Newcastle are considered to be the most inexperienced team in Group F. This team is new to the Champions League platform. However, they are now top of the table. They got a great win against PSG. I thought the match might be competitive. But in the match we saw the dominance of Newcastle players. After sharing the points against Milan in the away match, the team got a great win in the home match.

However, Group F has become more competitive. Milan have drawn both of their matches. On the other hand, the Dortmund team is strong but they have earned only 1 point in two matches. Milan and Dortmund will surely battle it out in their next match to climb the table. Every match in Group F will be very competitive.

I think one of the reasons PSG lost was their match strategy nothing els.  Their youngster Luis Enriue wanted to control the match with possession of the ball.  They have placed more emphasis on ball possession than attacking more.  I would say this match strategy only applies to La Liga, why? You do not have to be a coach to understand that, it is very difficult to win in the Champions League or Premier League with such tactics.

Because you know Premier League teams usually play very fast right? they attack and counterattack quickly. And I think that's why they lost. Luis Enrique's team is not doing well. At the same time his match strategy is also weak. I don't see any future for PSG in this Champions League.

There is something more important to this win and that is the margin by which they won. If they end up being equal in points with PSG and they share rank 2 and 3, the direct comparison will decide which team will advance to the next stage in the Champions League and which team will be relegated into the Europa League. Winning 4-1 can be so important because PSG would have to beat Newcastle at least 3-0 to then have the goal difference decide about the order in the table. I think that's one reason why this defeat is really bad for PSG. It raises the pressure even more for the next games.

I couldn't understand what you mean by PSG's young star Luis Enrique. Luis Enrique is the coach and is responsible for giving the right tactics to his players. Paris Saint Germain could not play well. They are also going through difficult times in the French league and with Mbappe's performance far from last year, Paris is getting bad results this year. If there is any success here, it is the success of Newcastle United.

Newcastle were on a roll from the very beginning of the match, and a quick goal also added strength to their further assault. PSG’s mistake was to allow Newcastle to play so close to their goal, then there was a controversial moment that was considered for a long time by VAR, there was also a handball, which was obvious, but the goal was counted and this is another moment that ruined the game for PSG.

Newcastle were stronger and they proved it in the second half, PSG did not know how to act, they rarely face teams that press them so actively, and besides, the effect of the stadium was simply stunning, Newcastle fans miss the Champions League.

Each of the teams in Group F is strong with each team enjoying a competitive game. Newcastle United have a great win over PSG with a huge 4-1 home win for Newcastle United. Newcastle are new to the Champions League but they are in great form and every player is fantastic attacking, every player has a different style. Newcastle United had a strong attack against PSG and it was a really good match at their home ground. Newcastle won the match and moved to the top of the points table with four points for Newcastle, while PSG moved from first position to second with 3 points. All four teams currently in Group F are extremely strong, with Milan and Newcastle United being particularly strong.

You are right. PSG lost by a big margin. And in this they may face problems. PSG lost the away match by 4-1. It is unlikely that PSG will win the home match by 3 goals. As I have seen Newcastle's gameplay, it is very difficult to beat this team by 3 goals. Because even when Newcastle play attacking, they never leave their defence vulnerable. The team has not been in good form in the Premier League at the start of this season. Even then, they conceded only 7 goals in 7 matches.
However, I think Newcastle and PSG are more likely to qualify for the knockout rounds. I had higher expectations from the Milan team. But their performance is a bit slow. They probably want to focus entirely on Serie A.

Yes it true I also not sure PSG will be able to win the UCL if they still don't make any progress.
At the start of the UCL group phase match I thought PSG could be better but in reality it was all just a dream that was difficult to come true.

PSG making it to the finals is something by this time we should know that it's almost not possible because they are gradually loosing the form required to get such results because the champions league is a very volatile and competitive one moreover if they make it to the round of sixteen, they will have to face even tougher teams which will means they will crash out probably at that point.

Mbappes reluctancy could be traced to the fact that he is gradually becoming wary of the team and will at any opportunity leave to a better and promising team, he has recently had some issues around the team and the team has not really been at their best recently although they started their local league on a good note but are gradually experiencing a decline since the fourth to the seventh weak of the league game.

The loss they suffered against Newcastle was really humiliating and will be spoken about for a long time probably till the week ends and I'm sure it will have some effect on their moral meanwhile Manchester city had it easier wining as compared to Newcastle although the winning margin differed so well but I think Newcastle and Manchester city both had a deserving victory.

Milan's performance will be at a level that can increase over time. Even though they seem to be a little behind for now, they still have a chance to get out of the group. The Newcastle matches will be decisive for them. They drew in Milan in the first match, but they must beat them in England. Milan is also a team that can win against PSG. They just haven't shown their strength yet.

In my opinion, PSG failed to read the true strength of Newcastle United, they thought Newcastle's strikers were very strong, who deserved special attention like Mbappe et al, of course this was wrong, look at Newcastle's midfielders and defenders, they are the real strength. has been hidden all this time. Just look at the four goals, three goals were scored by them, one goal from midfielder Longstaff, two goals from defenders Burn and Schar, the rest was the result of the collaboration of strikers Isak and Almiron.

Newcastle United's defense is one of the best in the world, the central or midfield sector is currently inhabited by great players, just look at the complete formation, Tonali + Bruno + Longstaff, it's difficult to penetrate this triumvirate, let alone mention backups like Joelinton, Willock, (Anderson ). Not to mention the defenders, even though Botman is absent, there are still Matt Targett and Lascelles, the main ones are Burn, Schar, Tripper, Selling, Newcastle's midfielders and defenders are very aggressive and dare to play hard, supported by their bodies which average over 186cm, and Burn is only 201cm which is not surprising for set pieces, his header fights always win and score goals, also Goalkeeper Nick Pope is really cool, worthy of being included in the England national team.
