UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[hahay]

At the moment,  is becoming clear that Manchester City will still take the trophy in that season and the reason being that,  the club have been on a run up in all measure matches since the last 9games and that to a large extent is going to tell have the club performance is going to be in the next few matches to come,  this is what we have to look out for in whatever discussion we have and at whatever time.

Even though there have been a few pockets of decline in performance in the last few days,  it still seems that Manchester still maintains the most formidable team and also can deliver at each of their matches.

Can you be specific here? You mean the Champions League or the Premier League? Infact, they're favorites in every Competition they play anf also having Pep Guardiola as head coach makes football beautiful and easy for the to play.
They also have special players in the club even if they do work as a club to get whatever they want. Players like Kevin De Bruyne, Doku, Erling Haaland and Bernado are all mentally intelligent players.

In the Champions League they've done well, and topped the group well! I'm the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur might be playing perfectly well but I believe they're another bottlers in the Premier League. They have a good coach but they stand no chance still against Manchester City.

Basically, Manchester City will always have a chance to win titles in any competition, because the point is Manchester City has good management with Pep Guardiola as head coach there. Therefore, Manchester City this season also still has a chance to advance further in the Champion League, or maybe still have a chance to be able to play in the final match. Although indeed, sometimes Manchester City also fails to continue to win in every match, but because Manchester City has good management, this factor will make Manchester City easy to recover quickly. At least that has also happened so far this season, after Bruyne was injured Manchester City's performance decreased but did not take long, in fact at this moment Manchester City again has a promising performance in every match.

We concede goals very easily. Both goals were scored very easily.
I agree about bakambu. He was bad in all the matches, but this game was the first time he played well.
Rashford will not play in the Galatasaray game. This is good news for us,, I think we will beat M.United.

I think Galatasaray and Copenhagen are both very lucky this season in the Champions League because they are in the same group as Manchester United while this team is not in good form at all and they easily take points against Ten Hag and his players.
Also, both teams Copenhagen and Galatasaray got a high chance to be in the next stage however I think considering the recent games we saw, Galatasaray got more chance than Copenhagen to be the second team.

After looking at the results obtained in the fourth match of the group phase, Galatasaray is in the leading position compared to Copenhagen and Manchester who will accompany Bayern Munich to the knockout stage. The two remaining matches provide opportunities for Galatasaray, of course the condition is that they must be able to get 6 points.
One of the matches that Galatasaray will play will be against Manchester United, Manchester United's unstable condition makes Galatasaray the superior team. The final match will bring Copenhagen and Galatasaray together, this match will be decisive for Galatasaray to qualify for the knock out round.
Copenhagen also has a mission to qualify, this match will give the feel of a final because both teams want to get three points to determine their fate in the Champions League.

Checking the current situation of Galatasaray and Manchester United that's to say Galatasaray got a good chance to be the second team of this group going to the next stage because Manchester United is not in a good situation at all and they are not in a good form have beat a team like Galatasaray.

Copenhagen are currently second in the table in Group A. I was quite surprised to see this. Galatasaray and Copenhagen are now level on points. And the Manchester United team is behind by 1 point. And so these three teams still have a chance to qualify for the Round of 16. I'd say the team that wins Galatasaray vs Manchester United in the last week of November will qualify for the Round of 16. The Copenhagen team is second in the table but I don't think this team is very strong. My guess is either Galatasaray or Manchester United will occupy the second place in the table.

For the last two seasons,  Manchester City have been on a winning trend and that has shown in the number of trophies they're left in the last two season,  like the last season when the new head coach took over the management of the club, there have won both leagues in two consecutive times and that goes a long way to show how Manchester city faith will be and what will become of them, most importantly when and how to properly manage whatever comes out of the current season where Manchester City will and is doing well again and all point to them and the strongest club in both premiere league and championship in this season and even beyond.

Although there are some other,  clubs that may possibly put up a strong resistance against them but then in the end,  Manchester City will still come up with a winning formula that will still lead them to the ultimate winning in the end.

It's nice to find that Real Madrid have ensured qualified to the round of 16 without a hitch. Napoli, Union Berlin and Braga have already been beaten, so now it only gets easier for them to maintain their group top spot. I hope Ancelotti can give several opportunities to players who rarely appear, including giving a debut to newly arrived Arda Guller. He has recovered and he is ready to go out and prove his abilities. Who knows if he could be as good as Bellingham, but I hope it's worth it.

Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Real Sociedad have also confirmed themselves through to the next round, Leipzig has also done it. I hope Madrid can ensure that they can win all their group stage matches even though Napoli don't want to lose in the second meeting this season.

The team was used to playing with De Bruyne and it took some time to get used to playing without him. Guardiola always repeats that there are no irreplaceable players, and in the case of Guardiola, the important thing is that he is building a team that can win, without being tied to any one player. De Bruyne had become an important player and his absence was felt, but now their play had leveled off, and he was one of the most important players in the team. City still look very good and I think they are capable of reaching the final.

These are the six teams that have been confirmed to qualify for the round of 16 and their journey will definitely be easier in the remaining group stage matches. Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Inter, Leipzig and Manchester City are regular teams in the top 16 and perhaps seeing Real Sociedad's struggle so far in qualifying with this strong team is certainly a good record for them after being absent from this competition for so long. Real Sociedad managed to eliminate Salzburg and Benfica from Group D competition and they succeeded in placing themselves at the top with the same points as Inter. Real Sociedad's performance in the domestic league and champions league is equally good and they deserve this result.

Real Madrid and Manchester City are my favorite team, I've full confidence in these teams mentioned, they have a brilliant squad and competent coach to lead them to path od glory. These are not only the teams, there are more teams that are fighting really hard to qualify. They're up and ready to kickoff in UCL round of 16. They sacrifice enough work to make this work, consistency in outstanding performance and they're heading into a qualified phase. These teams are competitive and strong on the standings in UEFA Champions League.

Not really all that shocking to see which teams have qualified so far. I mean it's been 4 games only, and the yare already qualified, that means that they did get the most out of the group stages.

This means that they can rest their players until last 16, that's a good thing, they could lose the last two games and rest, and that would be as good as it gets. I get that sometimes it doesn't look like that and we look at something and think that they have to still take it seriously because there is money in the end, but most of these clubs are rich too, they do not need the money that they get from wins, they could just rest their players and not risking any injury feels like that would be a better situation for them in the end.

Pep Guardiola's ultimate goal was to win the Champions League title. Because it was the only big target they couldn't achieve until the previous season. Guardiola finally reached his target in that season. Now I'm just wondering how much longer he will continue to do his job at Manchester City.

The reason why I'm wondering this is that I remember a statement made by him in the past. It was indicating that he would think of leaving Manchester City in the near future.

But for a long time I haven't heard such saying from him. Even though they won the Champions League title as well he still looks determined to go for more.  

[Jody.Drummer]

Let alone talking about Erik Ten Hag's dismissal, I haven't heard any rumors until now. Their 3rd Champions League defeat should have made the management open their voices about Erik Ten Hag's future at the club, but as we can see they have been silent until now. I don't know what relationship they have with Erik Ten Hag and it's possible they have more than what's written in the cons. Or it could be that they are moving in silence, by which I mean they are starting to approach other coaches but in a quiet way.

This is very likely to happen, considering that management does not want to get pressure from fans if their plans are known in advance. On the other hand, maybe Ten Hag has a special agreement with United regarding his dismissal, this can only be done when Ten Hag loses by a predetermined amount. Everything makes sense, including if the Red Devils management fires Ten Hag in the middle of the season, then they will have to pay a certain amount of compensation. So maybe these considerations made the management and club officials reluctant to end the employment contract with Ten Hag.

What is most unfortunate is when Ten Hag does not change his approach with players, which makes the club only pay their salaries without being able to get a contribution like in the case of Sancho. For me, that is detrimental to the club, because after all, an attitude like that has absolutely no benefits for the team.

There will be losses felt by the club either by keeping ETH or by firing it. If they fire it then there will be a financial loss there, and when they keep it it is something very risky. We are talking about something very bad now, if they keep ETH on the pretext of not wanting to lose financially, then they have to take the risk that they will decline further, it's a difficult choice but they have to choose. There is no guarantee that by bringing in a new coach they will improve, but at least there is new hope.

Exactly, but Real Sociedad and Leipzig are certainly surprising. I thought Benfica was much more convincing than Real Sociedad at first, but Benfica's performance was beyond expectations even though they were very consistent in the Portuguese League. Real Soicedad and Inter have been able to rest some players without underestimating the other teams fighting for the Europa League, but fighting for the main position in the group stage is also important to avoid many strong teams in the other group.

Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich are not surprising in my opinion, meaning they have been favorites from the start. The three teams are favorites for the title this season, but it is all but certain as their toughest challenge will be winning the knockout games. Manchester City have a chance to retain the title or at least go to the final this season, but of course that really depends on how they maintain their best form later.

Checking the current situation of Galatasaray and Manchester United that's to say Galatasaray got a good chance to be the second team of this group going to the next stage because Manchester United is not in a good situation at all and they are not in a good form have beat a team like Galatasaray.

There are no better hopes for Manchester United in their current condition in the Champions League, because Galatasaray will continue to exert their abilities to get second place in the group standings to ensure they qualify for the next round. Moreover, Galatasaray is also quite aware that Manchester United's condition is not in good condition so Galatasaray will continue to take advantage of this in the next match because Galatasaray has the same number of points as Copenhagen in the current group standings.

I've not observed any team that will withstand the pressure of City this season both in EPL and UEFA ChampionsLeague. Manchester City will undoubtedly win a trophy this season, and it will be a major one. Manchester City will continue to outperform their opponents in league games because they are always one step ahead of them. Pep Guardiola is the a mastermind behind the Citizens' spectacular victory, and he is continually planning to break Champions League milestones. Manchester City are the reigning UEFA Champions League champions, with outstanding game outcomes.

Manchester United still have a chance to qualify for the knockout rounds if they win against Galatasaray. Kenna Copenhagen and Galatasaray got 4 points and Manchester United got 3 points. So the Manchester United team can go to the next round if they win the next two matches. But the problem is that Manchester United will play their last match against Bayern Munich. And now it is difficult for United to beat a strong team like Munich. This is why Galatasaray is now considered the favourite for second place in the table.

Manchester United have become the team that any team can bully in the competition. All their opponents understand their current weakness and vulnerability and are taking advantage of it, so they have confidence that even if Manchester United score first, they can still loose the game because they are very bad defending their goals. Manchester United do not deserve to qualify to the next round of the competition, they will waste the chance if they somehow find a way to make it through with Bayern.

Copenhagen, Galatasaray and Bayern Munich, united have lost against all these clubs. Manchester United gave everyone hope and didn't come through when everyone expected them to triggered winning results. One thing Erik Ten Hag must know is the relenting efforts from his players, underperforming weigh below their expectations. Manchester united messed up big time, the second leg against Copenhagen was supposed to be a winning game but  they screwed up everything. The Red Devils will be looking for a must win in UCL next game because that's the only way to stay put for the purpose to qualify for next round.

They got so close and lost to Real Madrid. I must say pain, loses and failures are also good for one to accept. You have to be a beautiful loser at times before you finally win.
I was happy he was winning the treble only sad he did it with Manchester City  . Aside Manchester United, they're now the other club in the Premier League to have joined Manchester United in doing same.

Congratulations to him, he should turn the Premier League to a famers league successfully if he eventually wins the Premier League once again. Lol.
He has plans winning the treble once more this year, that would be difficult but not impossible to achieve. It's Pep Guardiola off course. ( The Perfectionists )

I'd love to see him managing the Spanish National Team or The England National Team. Which ever country he represents will have a chance of winning the next FIFA World Cup Competition.

And now it is difficult for United to beat a strong team like Munich. This is why Galatasaray is now considered the favourite for second place in the table.

Manchester United opportunity qualify depend on the winning two matches later against Galatasaray and Bayern Munich beside they have waiting with Copenhagen matches result. Current standings they have remaining one points from realistic target as qualify with finish on second standings position if next match take three points from Galatasaray opponent and another match Bayern Munich defeated Copenhagen. Its will be excited but still not guarantee if the scenario or result above is true depend last match Manchester United have face Bayern Munich on last match.

Seems have favorite for Galatasaray qualify in Group A with Bayern Munich depend their matches left against Manchester United and Copenhagen, if can win next match from United will make it easily to next round and make United will eliminate from Champion League.

Pep Guardiola always likes to improve his goal. After his successes last season, he wants to experience the same successes again and achieve this repeatedly. If it was any other man I would say it would be difficult but since it is Pep Guardiola it is possible.

I would also like to see Pep Guardiola in charge of a national team. It is easier to be successful in clubs than in national teams, but it is not easy to be successful in the national team. Pep Guardiola can set himself this goal.

There are eight groups in the Champions League which are very interesting to discuss on their journey to qualify for the round of 16, but group A is in first place because there is Manchester United. We all certainly understand the scenario for United to qualify from the group phase, and it is indeed a little more complicated than before. Galatasaray have already beaten United at Old Trafford, however they will try their best to win for the second time, and make Ten Hag and his team suffer and cry over their fate.

On paper United are actually superior in many ways, but the mentality of Ten Hag squad is now full of question marks, due to the series of bad results they have obtained. So I'm not favoring United when they visit Turkey this time, I am surprised that Copenhagen is in the runner up position now, even though previously they were not at all considered to be superior.

Manchester United are one very top team in England not just on paper but in terms of past glories, them having just 3 points out of 4 outings in their group is very worrisome. Ten Hag has a lot of job on his hands because the team is going down the drail and out of most competitions, they've already been kicked out of the Caraboa Cup which they're the defending  champions which is very bad.

ETH has a lot to do if he wants to scale through the champions league group stage, currently bookers will give Galatasaray the better odds to defeat Manchester United because Galatasaray needs this win also, Erik Ten Hag has a lot to do on both team spirit and team's tactics, Let's see how things go in the coming week for this derailing Manchester United side.

[CLS63]

In the fifth matchday match, I'm pretty sure Dortmund will be able to overcome Milan even though the match will be held at the San Siro. I wonder, what if Dortmund was able to win the match, what would happen to Milan. Well, I think there is a big burden on Pioli's shoulders to overcome Borussia Dortmund later. Moreover, this match will be watched by Rossoneri fans at their headquarters.

Meanwhile, Terzic will prepare strategies and ways to understand AC Milan's style of play. This match will be an exciting and interesting fight. Dortmund will be more careful, but every attack they build has a more effective level of danger than Milan. well, this is just my personal opinion and assumption.

As for PSG, it seems we agree that they have a higher probability of overthrowing Newcastle in the next meeting. and if so, that means Eddie Howe's squad has no chance of qualifying even if they win the match against Milan later. let's just calculate the difference in points between these four teams, and the fifth matchday will be the deciding factor. which means, if PSG wins against Newcastle and Dortmund beats Milan. These two teams have the right to advance to the next phase. btw, correct me if I analyzed it wrong.

I'm not so sure about Milan to lose to Dortmund in San Siro to be honest. Because they have gained some momentum finally by the important win against PSG in San Siro. These 2 goals were the first ones Milan scored in the group as well. However I think these goals will motivate them to be better at finishing in the remaining matches.

I must admit that Dortmund have been the best team at defending here so far. They conceded only 2 goals which were both against PSG. But I don't know if they can show the same away performance against Milan as they had against Newcastle before.

As a reminder Newcastle wasted many goal opportunities in that match as well.

Pep Guardiola always likes to improve his goal. After his successes last season, he wants to experience the same successes again and achieve this repeatedly. If it was any other man I would say it would be difficult but since it is Pep Guardiola it is possible.

We really understand how ambitious but realistic Pep Guardiola is. Because of that, he always tries his best in sometimes brilliant ways to bring his team to always be at the forefront. Man City's success last season made him rise again and he is believed to be a professional and experienced coach. And of course this season, Pep also certainly has quite a heavy burden, namely defending the UCL title and hopefully being at Man City again. And not only that, Pep certainly wants his players to also score more goals in every match. Because scoring more and more goals at UCL also provides an achievement in itself. If one of his students becomes a top scorer again, wouldn't this also be a proud struggle and achievement, especially in a UCL class, right? What's more, this is UCL, where Man City was the UCL title holder last season. So of course Pep also wants to present his best performance with the team this season, hoping to defend the UCL title and surpass last season's goal tally.
