UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[rahmad2nd]

Asides of the reining team of Manchester City i dotn see another team in that level to be a contender for this Champions League, maybe if Real Madrid with Bellingham still in this apce can have a chance, but they need a real number 9 you cant play with Joselu in this level.

In other words, Madrid is also not what you say City is. because the problem is, Madrid doesn't have a number 9 player. As for Joselu, he is not at the level capacity that Madrid needs. If I misinterpreted your post, I apologize for that. but for us, there are actually several candidates even though they haven't shown their true performance. At least, let's just see until the last 16 stage of this competition. some teams are quite strong, even though their mentality and performance have not gone well. It is possible that, along the way, some of the teams included in my category list will begin to display confidence and impressive and solid play. We'll see, because after all this group phase isn't over yet.

And speaking of City, Pep Guardiola's squad still has a high probability of retaining their title last season. for sure, they have a chance for that. although currently, Pep tends to prefer to experiment with systems, patterns, rotations, in several matches played by his squad. It would be very natural, considering that several of their players were injured. Now, only De Buryne still needs to recover. The rest have been confirmed to have returned to join their teammates. But whatever it is, we should just enjoy what this competition presents in the Group phase before heading to the round of 16.

I mean it wouldn't be the end of the world for them to go back to Europa once again. Last year they just got unlucky and lost, and not like going further with the UCL would bring them any success neither, if they had trouble in this group then it sounds like they might lose first game out, that means if they go to Europa then there could be a better chance for them to do better.

I feel like that should not be a big deal for them and could be doing fine. I believe that we are going to end up with something that could be all that better for them. This would allow them to have a period when they are not doing all weirdly and should be something that could bring some help for them and do a lot better on the long run as well.

You will be shocked then.

Real Madrid are the only team in the Champion's league history to retain back to back champion's league titles. No other team has ever done so, even when they were so strong and unbeatable… Not Pep's prime Barça that won the sextuple, Not Ferguson's Red hot Manchester United or Mourinho's dominant Chelsea, Not Robbens and Frank Ribery's Bayern Munich. There are so many things that could happen, but the chance of Manchester City getting a back to back UCL title are very slim.

Last season it's Midfielders that won Manchester city the matches where it mattered most and not the number 9 who would be silent in most minutes of most matches.

Real Madrid is never a team to underestimate, yes sometimes they play badly but they are always dangerous and always the favorites.

M.City are the favorites for the cup this year too, but I think they are very unlikely to win it.

This time I don't think if Real Madrid has too much chance to win the Chnapnios League with the current situation they have in their tams because they only rely on Bellingham more than they should rely on. This can definitely damage the team and if something happens for Bellingham they will have problems and this can show us Real Madrid can't have too much chance like they had before.

With their current performance and the squad at Real Madrid, it's absolutely possible for the club to finish the 2023/24 campaign with the UEFA Champions League trophy.
For a fact, Jude Bellingham has been the club's best player since the start of the season but that doesn't mean that the club solely rely on him. Players like Vinicius Jnr and Rodrygo are very capable to win games for Madrid and are big threats to any defense because of their pace and dribbling skills. Bellingham is not a player that's probe to injury and is very likely to finish the season without a major injury and that'll will definitely make Real Madrid one if the favorites to win the UCL this season

I don’t think Real Madrid are dependent on Bellingham to win matches or he is the only player to always take the team to victory. They are just lucky that he is always at the right position to kick the ball inside the net easily and win a goal. If they begin to depend on him, then it will be the beginning of Real Madrid mass failure. They should just remain focus and work on their forward players in order to produce more goals for the team.

Bayern Munich and Galatasaray are gonna progress at the expense of Man United and Copenhagen.

It could be wise to take Manchester United out of the picture, in terms of teams that won't qualify in that group, but in my opinion, I can't specifically say that Galatasaray and Bayern Munich will only scale through and take Copenhagen for granted. So for me, both Galatasaray and Copenhagen have an equal chance of qualifying in that group alongside Bayern, regardless of which team is ahead of the other in their group table.

It's too early to say if only Bayern Munich and Galatasaray will be able to qualify for the next round, maybe if Bayern Munich is certain they will qualify, however for Galatasaray, Manchester United and Copenhagen they still have enough opportunities to get point because they still have 4 matches to play were in the Champions League, so Galatasaray, Manchester United and Copenhagen have to compete fiercely in the Champions League so they can advance to the next round with Bayern Munich.
Its shame that Manchester United still got 0 point in the Champions League, I am little  worried if Manchester United can not catch points in Group A because currently Manchester United is not in its best performance whether in the English League or the Champions League.

that's just speculation. but that could become a reality if the performance of the Ten Hag team does not improve. Ten Hag is having problems in the team and until the next transfer window he will not be able to do anything except improve the performance of every player he currently has in the team.
Many fans hope that MU can get a ticket to qualify for the round of 16. But there are also many who have doubts about MU's performance which they feel is still far from good.

This is not a matter of luck, but indeed Bellingham's contribution to the Real Madrid team is quite large at the moment and apart from several crucial goals scored by Bellingham to help Real Madrid achieve victory, overall Bellingham's performance is quite important in Real Madrid's midfield.
It is true that Real Madrid does not depend too much on Bellingham, but it is likely that there will be a slight decline in the team's performance if Bellingham is absent, as has previously happened on Real Madrid's front line when Vinicius was injured.

And regarding the speculation about UC champions, I think it's still too early to say that, what is certain is that the teams in the UCL are the best teams in Europe which can do everything during this season to be strong or vice versa, so according to I am very unfair if we say about champions at this time.

that the reason why Bellingham is currently recognized as very reliable because he has the talent to dribble the ball or can always look for an empty place to score and his kicks are also accurate even though he does not always score. but even so, I would not say that Madrid relies too much on that player because before Vinicius returned to the field we could see how other players like Joselu and Rodrygo, who are currently attacking players for Madrid, even after Vinicius returned, he also performed very well.
from the depth of Ancelotti strategy, I can understand that Real Madrid is not like other teams when competing, relying on just 1 player, but the coach always relies on all players to play an important role in scoring and securing victory, as we know from the past, Madrid is a very strong team. and is famous for its very strong player collaboration and Toni Kroos is also still a key player who can be relied on.

Yes, it's true that it's still very early to discuss the strength of each club just by looking at their defeats in the domestic league and others, sometimes we can't predict the final result, it always gives us all a surprise, so I think predicting is enough for the matches and meetings, there's no need to discuss who who deserves to win the UCL this season because I don't think it's that important.

Many clubs have fought hard to get UCL tickets, of course they play as well as possible, better than what they play in the domestic league, therefore there are always surprises in football, so what we think is that team A is strong does not necessarily mean that team A will win the UCL, it can So team B won the UCL title this season. The strongest club last season is not necessarily better this season

If you take a look at Real Madrid games so far in this season you will see jude Bellingham plays a good role in every games which sometimes he even scores more than a goals,  I think he puts in more effort in the game. No doubt if anything happens to Bellingham it will really affect the performance of the team because no one can be of good replacement if he gets injured. Bellingham is a key player in Real Madrid is presence is very important in every game, I just hope nothing happens to him for Real Madrid to be able to achieve better in this season.

Real Madrid are among the number of favorite teams that has potentials to grab significant winnings in elite competitions, they can stand any competitive opponents without fear because they're the best leading team when it comes to major titles contenders. They signed an extra incredible player this summer, who fits in all rows given to him. Jude Bellingham have grown to become an important player for Real Madrid in just 10 appearance for the team, he has nets 10 goals. Remember he's just 20 years and already performing like a professional on the pitch, he has more years to exhibits the extraordinary qualities he possess.

Bellingham was not a lucky guy but he is a genius guy who is always know how to positioning himself in the right position to receive the deflected ball. If bellingham was lucky and he will not even repeat it for so many times. It sounds non sense to call 8 goals as only lucky goals from him.
Real madrid can still win the game without him but bellingham made the club to perform even better than before. It's time for real madrid to find the right straiker to replace benzema.
I hope that mbappe will come as soon as possible and it will also strengthen real madrid. El real needs to find someone who can replace benzema's role after he joined in ittihad.

It is absolutely true that UCL cannot just rely on one player to win and get closer to the championship trophy because it really requires very strong teamwork even in terms of the game when only playing individually it will only be detrimental to the team.
If we talk about Bellingham which always dominates Real Madrid games until it manages to have many wins it is only in La Liga and we certainly admit that this is very different from UCL where the competition is very tight and is only participated strongest teams from all leagues. After all Bellingham is only a midfielder is not pure striker so relying on him to always be impressive in attack is not good choice.

It is indeed better to always prioritize Vinicius Junior, Joselu and Rodrygo to appear as attackers for the Real Madrid squad.

Asides of the reining team of Manchester City i dotn see another team in that level to be a contender for this Champions League, maybe if Real Madrid with Bellingham still in this apce can have a chance, but they need a real number 9 you cant play with Joselu in this level.

You will be shocked then.

Real Madrid are the only team in the Champion's league history to retain back to back champion's league titles. No other team has ever done so, even when they were so strong and unbeatable… Not Pep's prime Barça that won the sextuple, Not Ferguson's Red hot Manchester United or Mourinho's dominant Chelsea, Not Robbens and Frank Ribery's Bayern Munich.

You have explained and interpreted the situation very well.
Real Madrid is never a team to underestimate, yes sometimes they play badly but they are always dangerous and always the favorites.

M.City are the favorites for the cup this year too, but I think they are very unlikely to win it.

Manchester city is trying so hard with all their current performance at the UCL and Premier league, discussion hey have caught people's attention so much that they are gradually becoming the favourite for most people both in the UCL and premier league but then until after the knock out stage then I could possibly say for sure if they do have a chance at the UCL again this season or not.

It's true that it's been rea  history to find a team getting the UCL title back to back, but it doesn't mean it's not possible, it's very possible and Manchester city may really want to do such but then this UCL is very competitive at this time with the likes of Arsenal who won them in the premier league if they should meet again at the UCL they are to encounter another difficult moment, there are so much to fave this season of which if they can get through, they could possibly make history with the UCL. Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Arsenal and other bigger teams have to exit before Manchester city can be sure again with the UCL.

I think the opposite honestly. It is the truth that Bellingham has making the biggest contribution to the team when it comes to goals. However he doesn't score all the goals in the end. I still like the team play of Real Madrid now. Bellingham can't win all the matches by himself in the end. Real Madrid's form has been really solid.

Besides Real Madrid are playing more different when it comes to the Champions League. They can actually always be considered as the secret biggest title contender of this tournament. 

Because they won this title 5 times in the recent 10 years and they still keep the same mentality here.

If City could win the Champions League again this season it would be a great achievement and I'm sure Guardiola would really like to achieve this goal. But it’s not so easy to do, I see how strong Real is now, I think that if the lot allows this to happen, then Real can meet City in the final and it would be a great final. As for Bayern, Arsenal, Barcelona and other teams, they all have weaknesses that I think will not allow them to reach the final, although the example of Inter in the last final shows that sometimes a luck can allow not the strongest team to reach the final (but Inter were good).

Man City under Pep leadership will definitely improve everything to make them strong in the two EPL and UCL competitions, the spotlight currently on them cannot be separated from two consecutive defeats in the EPL. I think that's a natural thing, because everyone is wondering how big a chance Man City has of repeating last season success this season. What is clear is that the opportunity is still wide open for Pep squad at the moment, I feel that Leipzig, Youngs Boys and Red Star are not a cure for Pep headache. Man City is too superior in group G and have a great chance of progressing easily. At the next stage we need to see who their opponents are in the last 16 to predict Man City chances of going further.

Pep Guardiola has the ambition to win the UCL in a row with Man City, like Zidane once did with Real Madrid. There are still four matches left in the group phase, and I think now Madrid, Arsenal and Munchen are fighting to ensure they qualify for the last 16 first. After that we will get an overview of the opportunities depends the top 16 draw, sometimes the favorite club can turn into a mediocre club and that often happens and we see it often.
