UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[TastyChillySauce00]

Manchester City lost a match against Arsenal in the Premier League so it is not correct to say that Manchester City has weakened a lot in terms of performance. Sometimes bigger teams lose against smaller teams and this is not unusual. Manchester City's performance this season is a little less than last season, maybe because some important players of Manchester City are injured and they could not play any matches for Manchester City this season, but the reserve footballers that Manchester City have are definitely good player. While Manchester City's performance in the Premier League has been a bit slow, their performance in the Champions League has been normal and they will do well in this Champions League season if they improve their performance gradually.

Manchester City were not being scored many goals last season the way they are being scored this season. Their group in the champions league is a simple group so their reduced performance showing in the premier league will not yet show in the champions league until they play a stronger team in the competition and we will see. Manchester City may not find it easy to win the champions league again this season. Manchester United on the other side of things will have to will their next game in the champions league which is Copenhagen again, if they are to maintain hopes of qualifying from their group.

It's really wrong, manchester city scored less compared to the last season. Haaland itself has made around 12 goals in UCL and 36 goals in EPL to win treble winners. How can you said that if manchester city was not scoring many goals last season compared to the current season?
It doesn't even make sense and you can even try to browse haaland's stats last season and you wiil be seeing that haaland's performance has been declining a lot compare to the last season.

Haaland has not scored a lot of goals this season. It's so easy to get the data about the current stats of manchester city to create a comparison to the stats of city current season. Manchester city's performance was not as good as last seasno caused by it was missing some important players.
I think that you need to take a look at the stats again. It's caused by what you said above was not true at all.

Haaland is still under perform caused by there's no great attacking midfielder that was helping in scoring as many goals as possible like previous season.

Haaland’s goal contribution cannot be overlooked because he has been a blessing to the team since joining from Dortmund last year. Manchester City are favorite to win the trophy again this season but I am convinced they will face a tougher test this time with many other teams looking ready and prepared for same challenge, teams like Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, etc. are all geared and ready to take the fight to City.

There is absolutely no doubt about Haaland contribution on scoring, last season in the Premier League and UCL, this handsome man was the top goal scorer, and this season there is also a possibility he could become the top goal scorer again. This man was an important key to Manchester City, with him the City club was able to get they first UCL trophy last season. Indeed, athough City are favorites this season but their job on UCL will not be easy, the clubs currently competing in the UCL are not easy to beat, especially Bayern Munich PSG Real Madrid.

Newcastle have seriously surprised many with how they’re taking the games and looking more like a proper club that is regular in the champions league. It will be a tough fight with Dortmund on the horizon but they definitely have the players to challenge.

PSG might seem to be a little bit disorganized after the departure of many stars like Messi and Neymar. This thing came about a new players signings like Ramos, Dembele, kolo Muani and the rest. This players seems to me more like a squad player than the others that left.

Dortmund are not a club that one can actually just back to get result against top clubs like them. Dortmund switch off easily and I wouldn’t be too surprised if they lose the remaining matches

UEFA Champions League competition is just starting, there are phases we are yet to watch. We are still at group level games, focusing on Group F because these teams are having challenging moments competing against each other, Group F is intriguing and full of tension. PSG is leading and the only team I believe will easily qualify, but the rest of the squad will have to suffer and work extremely hard in order to acquire their spots. I'm currently looking at Newcastle and Borussia Dortmund, who are both attempting to close the gap between them. However, AC Milan is unreliable and is likely seen as a mediocre team due to the poor performance exhibited by Milan players.

Newcastle who are playing in the UEFA Champions League competition for the first time in over 20 years were very unlucky to find themselves in a group that is believed to be the most difficult of all the group in the competition this season.
However, they've not been really poor with their results this season and after drawing their first game in the competition this season, they defeated the group F favorite team to win the group which is Paris Saint Germaine before they were narrowly beaten by Borussia Dortmund during this week. I think they're still very likely to progress to the next stage of the competition abd that they must win Dortmund when they host the German club in two weeks time to increase their chances of qualifying from the group.

Newcastle United hasn't done bad in their first appearance in the champions League for over 20 years. If you check there game pattern in this few champions League matches, you will cut them some slack. In their lack game against Dortmund, that played fantastically, even when their hit man Isak was injured, they displayed good football else the goal margin would have been more than one. Let's see how the return leg will look like.

Manchester City are favorite to win the trophy again this season but I am convinced they will face a tougher test this time with many other teams looking ready and prepared for same challenge, teams like Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, etc. are all geared and ready to take the fight to City.

I got to read a post that said Erling Haaland is a small game player. Could be that they don't watch football or what? Or they don't have a phone to go see his highlights on YouTube.
Manchester City have been a great side even before the arrival of Erling Haaland, but he made goal scoring easier and less for them.
They have lost sole players amd haven't replaced them well enough with the right players.
I can't make predictions on who wins the Premier League now, but Manchester City already going through lots witi the absence of some certain important players.

Manchester City is quite safe if Haaland is in his best form because he can score more than 1 goal if he is in his best form. In the previous match, Haaland also played a big role in bringing Manchester City to victory because the two goals he scored managed to make City win in this match.

So, in the Champions League this season, we have many attackers who are quite productive in terms of scoring goals, such as Mbappe, Harry Kane and also Haaland. So of course they have a bigger burden to bring their team to progress through round after round and win a trophy in the end.

Of course Haaland can score lots of goals this season and I hope he doesn't suffer an injury that could hinder his performance. And also for Harry Kane, he is quite active in contributing to Bayern munich, of course he has the opportunity to become the top scorer if Bayern Munich is able to reach the final this season.

As long as some key players will able to recover before the end of this season and it's possible for city to get UCL trophy again for the second time in a row. Madrid is the only team whois holding a record as back to back champion for three times in a row.
It will be so good to see city to dominate the UCL again this season. There have been many players are out from the club like gundogan, mahrez, etc. City have been also replacing them all with the quality players too.

Im also feeling very satisfied with the result achieved by manchester city even when the club must have played without some important players like those guys or most contributed player to the club like de bruyne.
I was feeling so happy to see rodri back again in EPL. this is also boosting the performance from manchester city in UCL as well. Im waiting for the complete squads to perform. KDB is the only player that has been awaiting by so many people.
Pep needs to make sure city will always be in a good condition to win the UCL again.

I have heard that if de bruyne has been rumored to join in al nassr. It seems like that pep is also looking for long term successor for him. I can understand it since he was 32 years old.

A small game player, seriously mate?    Above all else Haaland is playing in the most prominent league of Europe which is the Premier League. We all saw how incredible his scoring effort in the previous season was as well. When it comes to big matches I remember many examples of them in which Haaland scored goals and became even the man of the match. As a result I don't agree with you about his being a "small game player". It is true that sometimes he can't score against big teams but it is totally normal.

In the end not every star player is able to score goals in such matches every single time. Plus despite De Bruyne's absence Haaland has still been continuing to make a great contribution to his team.

What I mean by "small game player" in this sense is he hasn't scored against any big clubs this season. Granted, the season is still fresh and we are yet to see more of him but like I mentioned, he could be going through the second season syndrome and if care's not taken, he may soon be started from the bench because when you have the likes of Alvarez, Foden and to an extent, Rodri, we don't see any need for the Norwegian giant because in terms of clinical finishes, these guys are also deadly.
 It's a big thing to play in the Premier League and excel, I'm not disputing that but also know that eyes will be on you especially if you were signed with a huge amount. Haaland did that for us in the first season, wowed the fans and was the golden boy, but this season it's looking like he's losing his touch. And I'm here wondering if it's because those who fed him the passes in the first season are now more invested in getting the goals for themselves or what?

We cannot just say that a player is not a big match player, just because he is not being able to score in 'every' big match. This kid is definitely doing really well with Manchester City. Of course, every season is not going to be the same. And of course, every match is also not going to be the same as well. It is not good to have unrealistic expectations from any player. Now, is it realistic to expect 50 goals, or more from him in a single season? Probably not. But he cannot score more than 50 goals every season, right? I think the kid is doing well so far and he will be able to continue performing well if he can stay healthy.

We are in the early stages of the Champions League. The group stage games are not over yet. After the group stage games, the tough competition of the main stage will begin. The group stage games in the Champions League are very interesting because out of the 32 teams, 16 teams will advance to the next round and the remaining 16 teams will end their Champions League journey here. We thought that all the teams in Champions League Group F are very strong, but after three matches, we realized that AC Milan is not the perfect team for the Champions League. It was thought that PSG might perform poorly this season but after the first three matches, maximum points are in favor of PSG. Although Newcastle did well in the early stages, Dotmud are doing well in the last three games so the competition is still between the top three teams.

I think they're still very likely to progress to the next stage of the competition abd that they must win Dortmund when they host the German club in two weeks time to increase their chances of qualifying from the group.

In the next match, Newcastle will face Dortmund again. And I feel Newcastle will probably win the game. Because in the last match Newcastle actually played better. It's just that Dortmund's defense did look more solid in the last match. But I think Newcastle will find gaps in Dortmund's defense in the next match. And in essence, Newcastle still has quite an open opportunity in Group F. And Newcastle should be given appreciation for their performance which is able to look stronger and on par with PSG. Even though in this group Newcastle should not be the favourite. But now it is Milan who are starting to become unfavourites.

Some people don't believe or think that Manchester City is in bad shape because in the Premier League they have appeared during this season and have suffered several defeats but it is too early to assume that Manchester City is bad.

Since KDB was injured, it seems that Manchester City is not performing better in the domestic league, so they need someone who is right to replace KDB, at least providing mature passes for Haaland so he can score goals, because every time against a strong club, Haaland seems to have difficulty scoring goals, I think so too Guardiola should have placed another player on the front line to accompany Haaland.

So far Haaland has not performed as well as last season, he seems to have difficulty scoring many goals this season so Guardiola has to think about that at least so that this season Manchester City really performs well in the UCL and in the domestic league, as we saw in Manchester City's UCL didn't meet a difficult club in group G, but he will meet later against stronger clubs like Munich and Madrid, I think Guardiola has to set a good strategy to be able to make Manchester City play like last season, if you say it looks bad that's which I have seen since their last few matches in the domestic league have suffered unnecessary defeats

Yes, that absolutely true because when De Bruyne was injured Manchester City also experienced decline in performance even Haaland as the mega star there couldn't do much in attack different from last season.
Maybe that why Pep wants to replace De Bruyne with another player and this is decision that is not yet known whether it is right or wrong because previously De Bruyne was a good player in the Manchester City squad.

For the Premier League he is still one of the best players and for the UCL Haaland has not been able to provide much for Manchester City.
But Pep knows that Haaland is great player so he will put his trust in Haaland as the best player he has.

Haaland want to pull surprises this season. I thought Bellingham will succeed Cristiano Ronaldo in this season but it doesn't seem to be working right now that is why I don't want Bellingham to be overwhelmed with the clout which can make him carried away.

With the way Manchester City is pushing hard this season, it is possible to predict them taking this trophy. This competition will be between Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

Bellingham plays as a midfielder and he will not be able to freely score many goals because that is not his main task.
Haaland is still like last season and even this season he is becoming more integrated with Manchester City but he is still in the group phase and Manchester City have not yet met a tough opponent so we have not concluded anything yet but I will not underestimate Haaland because Haaland is a very high quality striker and In fact, I think Haaland is one of the best players in the world right now.

The following is a list of the top scorers of all time in the Champions League and with the addition of 2 goals in the previous match from Erling Haaland, making his name among the top 20 champions league scorers of all time with 37 goals. Erling Haaland is currently 23 years old and his career is still very long for this competition. Maybe in the next 4 to 5 years I think he will be at 100 goals if he continues to be consistent in scoring goals. Will Erling Haaland break the record currently held by Cristiano Ronaldo with 140 goals? If that happens, of course he will beat the achievements of one of the GOATs and also make his name even more famous throughout the world.

Yes Haaland brought luck to Man City, last season Man City did not score as many goals as the current season. Haaland's presence made Man City score more goals until Man City could rank second in the standings. Haaland is a talented young player and it looks like he deserves a high value price because his game is always maximal and slick. Even so they still have to fight to get more points in order to be at the top of the standings. So they must maximize all upcoming matches.

Apart from that, there are Arsenal who are under it with a thin difference in points. Arsenal also in my opinion is a strong team this season, however, they still have to chase points to be able to shift Man City. and Man City will face the Red Devils, Manchester United, of course this is not an easy thing for Man City. Although Manchester United had experienced a slump yesterday, now Manchester United has started to rise from its slump yesterday with players who always make blunders. But this will be a tough match for Man City, of course Man City must prepare everything to fight the red devils who are currently starting to rise again to winning ways.

Yes he is one of the successful transfers that Manchester City made last season, in his first season he was able to bring Manchester City to win the Champions League title last season, and also he became the top scorer in the English League and also in the Champions League, it is a very good record, especially he is a very young player, so his abilities can really develop again.
Every season the clubs you mentioned are regulars in the Champions League title race, so it's no surprise that this season they are also part of the equation. This season they have also done something that makes them improve, so certainly the competition will be even tighter.

[Sakanwa]

United looked like an average team in both Copenhagen and Galatasaray matches. I would like to see a more obviously dominant game from Manchester United. They cannot perform this game. There is a possibility that they will lose points in the Copenhagen rematch and Galatasaray matches. It won't be a surprise if they don't make it out of the group.

Looking at the dominance of Manchester United not only in the Champions League but in domestic competitions as well they are still very lacking but as long as the results are positive for them I don't think I have a problem for this because in the end regardless of the dominance they get it will be very bad if in the end they lose and again so it is better for them to improve their finishing rather than relying on dominance.
Indeed it is also a good thing to do because as a form of excellence only when they try to dominate more it is their defense that will be at stake and this is risky for Manchester United so I only expect a win for them regardless of whether they can have dominance or not it doesn't really matter.

If Manchester United are grinding out wins,it does not mean they are dominating,because as far as I know,they find it very difficult to win the games they've won,no game as been so easy for them to win,and I see them fumbling when they will face a strong side,and that strong side is Manchester City which they will be facing this weekend.It is going to be a very strong derby because United won't want to drop points again,they are fully aware that if they get a point here, it will definitely boost their confidence level,but I don't think Guardiola's men are going give them that chance to be able to score them.I predict a 2:0 for Manchester City in this derby.

I don't know if Haaland will be able to beat Cristiano Ronaldo's record of 140 goals, but being only 23 years old I think he could do it, only time will tell! Gia certainly has a record that few can sing about, he has more goals scored than games played, a goal average of 1.12 which is very high, and if he maintains this average for many years he could destroy Ronaldo's record without too much effort

Yes, the strongest candidates to win the champions league title this season are Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Manchester City. I think this season Manchester City will win the trophy again in the champions league because they still have Erling Haaland who contributed greatly to winning the champions league title last season but It doesn't seem like it will be easy for Manchester City, because several big clubs such as Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have bought star players who will bring them to perform optimally in the Champions League matches, for some reason I focus on Bayern Munich, they have a great striker who was brought in from Tottenham I think Harry Kane will bring Bayern Munich to the champions league title this season.

[Jody.Drummer]

Yes he is one of the successful transfers that Manchester City made last season, in his first season he was able to bring Manchester City to win the Champions League title last season, and also he became the top scorer in the English League and also in the Champions League, it is a very good record, especially he is a very young player, so his abilities can really develop again.
Every season the clubs you mentioned are regulars in the Champions League title race, so it's no surprise that this season they are also part of the equation. This season they have also done something that makes them improve, so certainly the competition will be even tighter.

In my opinion, this cannot be separated from the performance of Manchester City players, which is quite even in every line, making it easy for Haaland to adapt and being able to immediately show or demonstrate Haaland's qualities which enable him to make a big contribution to the Manchester City team.
It cannot be denied that Haaland is a quality striker, but his presence at Manchester City makes everything easier because of the great support from other players.
Manchester City is still the same as last season, they will still be the favorites to win the uCl and Haaland is still their mainstay in the front line, I think nothing has changed in the Manchester City team.

That's right, the support of teammates cannot be separated from Haaland's outstanding performance, because as a team he can't just play alone and there will be a very important role from his teammates.
The evenly distributed squad owned by Mamnchester City really helped him adapt well, and not only that, the foresight of a Pep Guardiola was something that played an important role in making him play optimally in every match.
Pep, who used to implement a strategy without a pure striker, changed the strategy when he came, and it was very successful in bringing Manchester City to its best game.

[legendbtc]

So far Haaland has not performed as well as last season, he seems to have difficulty scoring many goals this season so Guardiola has to think about that at least so that this season Manchester City really performs well in the UCL and in the domestic league, as we saw in Manchester City's UCL didn't meet a difficult club in group G,

Do we expect Haaland to score in every match, and this seems impossible? He faces pressure because he played so well last season. He was criticized for not scoring in five consecutive matches in the Champions League. For example, when Haaland did not score in Man City's final match on the way to the Champions League title last season, there was a lot of criticism around him. Haaland also appeared unlucky when he missed good opportunities.
But we should look again. Striker Erling Haaland has 37 goals in Europe's most prestigious club competition. After just 33 games, he became the youngest player to reach this milestone - surpassing Kylian Mbappé's record. And in addition, he is humble, a highly professional person as well as a highly competitive player. We shouldn't ask too much of him, as the season still has a long way to go.
