UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[swogerino]

What two lost games can make you in the Champions League regarding the Newcastle team,they were brought down from 1st to 4th and they now risk to not qualify at all as they are facing Paris and Milan in these last two games where they need victory at all cost in order to have a chance to qualify,for me this will be very difficult as Paris is in a really good form recently and most likely they will win the game of return and get revenge for that 4-1 lost game in St.James park in the opening stages of the group stage.

They may have a chance though to win against Milan and hoping to get third place to continue to Europa League,unfortunately most likely their journey here has ended.

I agree that this year there isn't this one team that everybody believes will win the Champions League. Manchester City is always a favorite, but compared to last season they are not playing as perfectly. Real Madrid has very strong games, but sometimes also underperform. It's difficult to compare teams based on their performances in the domestic leagues, but Inter Milan is doing very well and could once again make it into the final and perhaps win it this year. Bayern Munich is erratic and some of the other big favorites, too.

An impressive performance in the domestic league may not necessarily provide good results in the Champions League because the two competitions are very different. It will be very difficult to predict which team will emerge as champions in the Champions League because the competition has only just started in the group phase and there are other big matches that they have to go through after the group stage ends. Inter Milan are having a good season in Serie A, but in the Champions League they may not necessarily be able to reach the final because many other teams are quite strong this season with equal quality players in all positions.

If I could choose then I would like to see Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Manchester City playing in the final because the three teams have evenly distributed players in the squad. So the opportunities for these three teams will be much greater than for other clubs and I also see that their performance in the group phase is still quite strong even though the opponents they face are a little easier.

This is really important point to understand which is missing by many members as they are feeling domestic leagues have impact on teams performance into Champions League mostly teams are having good run in domestic league, but sadly they are missing this trick into Champions League with many are awful into domestic league but having good achievements into UEFA events which bring them to the top.

Currently, we still have long way to go for the final destination but currently few teams are giving their best and have enough chance for the staying at the top for the title race specially Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Real Madrid are hot favorite and Inter Milan can create another surprising entry into last fours as they have done in last season, so things are not clear as we can talk about better in mid-February which will give better updates about teams performance.

They have shown that Newcastle can play well  against big  teams. So it cannot be said that there is  no possibility of the team playing in  the round of 16 yet. Newcastle team  can surprise us all. Newcastle won by a  big margin against PSG. And none of us expected  them to put up such a good performance against PSG. The future  of these two teams depends on the  upcoming PSG vs Newcastle match. The team  that wins this match will  advance in the race to the Round of 16. PSG's performance is still erratic. This is why the match is likely to be competitive. Even PSG is likely to lose.

Despite getting an unexpected loss against Lens Arsenal are still going on nicely in the group stage. I assume we can say that they have qualified for 1/8 finals already. They would probably make it there as 1st as well. I really liked their performance against Sevilla the last time. They were in full control. However this might not be a very healthy example to take into consideration to believe in Arsenal for next stages.

They have shown some inconsistencies during the season. If we see that in bigger matches in the Champions League then they could say goodbye early to the tournament.

If Manchester United can able to beat Galatasaray and draw from Bayern Munich they will have 7 points total and this is not a safe points indeed because Galatasaray last match on group stage is more easy than them because they only fight against Copenhagen and Galatasaray will pushing to win even with big scores if possible and assuming Galatasaray lose from Manchester United but they can able to beat Copenhagen then Galatasaray also has points 7 points equal to Manchester United but most likely they will be qualified because Galatasaray is more good from goal difference

So Manchester United chances to qualified is very slim and they really required luck and indeed if Manchester United want to secured second place then they have to win all of the remaining matches and this is hard for them especially on 6th match Manchester United will playing against Bayern Munich

It will be a very tough games for M.United. I don't believe they will finish 2nd in the group. Galatasaray or Copenhagen will be 2nd in the group.

M.United management said that they are not looking for a new manager to replace Erik Ten Hag. A very good decision, I hope they will continue to lose.

As of now Manchester United is at the bottom of the group with having just three points and next game against Galatasaray in Turkey and after this Manchester United going to host Bayern Munich which is surely not easy games but still as they are improving their game against Galatasaray is important for them if they want to qualify for the next round then surely they have to win in this match even this is tough game but still they are having enough quality to beat them.

Inconsistency is their biggest problem with injuries are also hurting their cause but recently their performance is surely having good hope for their fans with this break can also bring some positive changes because few players need break which will improve their performance for the next games.

Group F is still open to every kind of surprise. Even the last placed team can finish as leader. I mean Newcastle by saying that. Because Milan were also doing really bad by not scoring a single goal but this PSG win made them start to believe in for last 16 stage. PSG are still not trustworthy at all.

Because the inconsistencies in their performance continues. They are quite dependent on Mbappe's score contribution I'm afraid. I don't see them playing good very often when Mbappe doesn't perform strikingly well. I don't know if PSG can make it to next stage by playing like this. 

I'm sorry for the Milan fans but I think that sooner or later they will have to abandon watching the Champions League matches and find another hobby since I think that Milan will exit the competition.
He did really badly in the championship.
Milan is fallen down down down..

Newcastle United are the bottom standings teams in Group F still have opportunity lead to next round depend their result two matches left, its looks excited with Group F compete until playing four matches there are not any teams have qualify to next round. Next match will see more closer opportunity for which one teams have chance to get place next round between PSG vs Newcastle United match and Milan vs Dortmund.

Poor result from PSG its not totally fault from Mbappe, although he missed score goals last match against AC Milan but inconsistency performance with defense make PSG have loss three points from Milan and dropped to 3rd standings position. Can't imagine for 16 round with PSG there but their opportunity not close yet with two matches left against Newcastle United and Dortmund are favorable get three points.

PSG will be in a lot of advantages over acmilan. Acmilan may be missing a lot of its key players like leao or even pulisic. PSG has not bigger probability to win against acmilan. Im not losing my hope caused by PSG is still having a chance to do that.
The result from this group is pretty hard to predict. In my opinion, I believe that both PSG and Dortmund have a good chance of qualifying for the top 16. Dortmund is starting to progress. I would like to see terzic and dortmund to face a strong club in the last16.

I have a strong feeling that both AC Milan and Newcastle United will be eliminated from the UEFA Champions League. Acmilan will be going down to the europa league to compete with several teams like brighton and liverpool.

Im not having faith in acmilan and newcastle. These clubs are having too many injured players. These will put its opponent in a lot of advantages caused by PSG and dortmund have only a few players who were injured.
Newcastle and PSG will get a very big pressure from the next match.

Losing against lens was not a problem as long as arsenal will able to get a lot of points against the rest of its opponent. I think that arsenal will be doing revenge once lens will be playing at emirates stadium too. Arsenal is not that strong but lens may probably give tough game for arsenal. The only problem owned by arsenal is about how to beat lens. Arsenal has very big probability to win the game as long as it will be playing at home. Arsenal has a very big chance to be a winner on this group.
The win against lens will help arsenal to secure a spot into top 16. Lens is under a big pressure. It has the same points as PSV. Unable winning against arsenal will put lens to be placed below PSG.
It will make lens goes back to the europa league which is not what team wanted. This is a huge challenge for lens caused by arsenal is very strong when it was playing away. Lens needs to be fully defense against it.

As long as newcastle know how to prevent mbappe and i think PSG may also lose a chance to be qualified for thelast 16. Anyone is in curiosity to know which club that will be qualified for the last 16. Any clubs in the group have the same chance to be qualified but this totally depends on the how bad or good their performance are. Newcastle and acmilan became the teams with lowest chances to be qualified for the last 16. I think that if anyone is also trying to bet on these matches with a lot of doubtness. It's caused by any clubs in this group were equal. It's pretty hard to know which team that may go to the last 16. Any surprises can come from newcastle and acmilan.
I would rather than pick save bet like double chance in these matches. The result is very hard to predict at this moment as any clubs have same chances.

It is quite hard to predict who will qualify from this group because it is still open for all four clubs. What I see is that any of these clubs that take their matches very serious and didn't accept to be defeated, stand a better chance of qualifying than the rest. Moreover, football is full of surprises and before you know it the least expected club will qualify. I think that Milan and PSG needs to step up their game if they really want to qualify to the round of 16. Newcastle lack champions league experience and I guess that is what is affecting them.

I am not agree with currently Newcastle United is facing internal issues with injuries and banned player surely hurt their cause for the progress into next round, and now I have feeling we are having PSG clearly at the top and AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund will fight for the other spot and here things are very tight between these two teams even AC Milan is not having good start, but now they can go through without any problem and this could be challenging.

No doubt Newcastle United lack of experience for the Champions League but still their performance was good in early matches but suddenly long list of injured players now having serious trouble which is also having impact in Premier League ranking for them as well at the end.

[red4slash]

It would be very interesting to see this confrontation. A confrontation between truly strong teams. But I think that this is possible, since people come from different groups and we need to get to this point and not get into trouble. Nowadays games have become so unpredictable that it is difficult to predict anything.

I see that predictions are still difficult only for group F, while for the other groups it is getting easier to make predictions about who will qualify and who will not. Everyone can see how far apart the strong teams in the group that I mean are, because a mistake by one team can make them fail to qualify and be a big benefit for the other teams to be able to qualify more easily. Meanwhile, for the other groups, it is not too complicated to make predictions about which team will advance to the next round.

With a difference of only 1 point from 1 team to another, and with 2 matches remaining, all teams still have a chance to get rid of each other. I don't know if after the 5th match the situation will change or get more complicated, I mean if Newcastle lose in the 5th match against Paris Saint Germain, it will make the situation easier to predict, otherwise if Newcastle win, then it will be more complicated and who will qualify will be more difficult to predict. The same goes for the match between Borussia Dorrmund vs AC Milan.

This is why the match is likely to be competitive. Even PSG is likely to lose.

speculating about who will win the PSG vs Newcastle match, there will definitely be a lot of people saying Newcastle will beat PSG and that speculation came after Newcastle beat PSG at home in the 2nd leg at that time but the problem now is that in the upcoming match Newcastle will play away from home while PSG will have big chance to win.
even so, I still agree with what you said, in terms of performance, Newcastle has a better advantage and if they can not win, it looks like it will only end in a draw, that the best way to get points rather than losing and if you speculate who will qualify, I can not speculate because of the group is very difficult to predict.

The most competitive club in group F is ranked 4th on the table, not encouraging result at all. Newcastle performance have been brilliant, but fail to grab three points. Newcastle will travel to Parc des Princes stadium to take on Paris Saint Germain in the UEFA Champions League second leg, a friendly reminder that Newcastle thrashed PSG at St James Park stadium 4-1 and that was pure humiliation for PSG. Luis Enrique and his players are looking forward for a revenge on Eddie Howe and his men after internationally break. I'm certain PSG will thrash Newcastle the exact same way they got beaten in the first leg.

There is a bit of doubt about Newcastle's fate in getting out of the hell group because losing several players who are injured or sanctioned will certainly be very detrimental. Moreover, last week they lost in the domestic league against a weak team that they should have beaten easily. I don't know for sure if details like this will make them underperform and I think before the group stage match starts, Newcastle will be ready with their main squad back. Eddie Howie, in his first season, brought Newcastle to Europe's highest competition and was immediately faced with strong competitors from various top European leagues, which certainly made it difficult for him and even if Newcastle ultimately failed to progress, at least we must appreciate his performance as a coach who has brought Newcastle to this stage.

Arsenal clearly favorite for the leadership of this group even they lost their match against Lens in France, but now they are going to host them at the Emirates which will be allowed them to have full three points and spot into round of 16 their performance it surely needs improvement but still they are much stronger in this group against other teams with Sevilla is also having better chance for the next round even this is early, but their performance is better than other teams.

PSV which is also doing amazing in their league with leading against few top teams, and they are also looking for the spot into round of 16 which is not easy but possible things are looking good but Sevilla challenge is surely not easy in coming match even they are going to play at home against Sevilla.

He did really badly in the championship.
Milan is fallen down down down..

Milan didn’t just collapse, it crumbled into pieces. Such a shame and disgrace.
They had everything in their hands, but they did not use it!
Football is not the same anymore. Not the same clubs as they used to be. But I’m generally silent about the players! everyone only wants fame, but where is the love for football?

This is why the match is likely to be competitive. Even PSG is likely to lose.

I am still surprised that Newcastle have not impressed us with goals since the season beginning of the season and their upcoming game with PSG will further help in determining their chances to qualify. Hence I personally don't see them winning. It is a dream for PSG to lead the table standing in the next championship league match they will play with the Newcastle.

I am more of the prediction that Newcastle will not be able to win that match instead it will be a more wins to the success of the PSG I think. The last time those clubs ever met was when Newcastle gave PSG a 4-1 but I don't see them repeating that win in this match. Nevertheless, let's see what happen on this very day

The same goes for the match between Borussia Dorrmund vs AC Milan.

As for me, the result of the confrontation between Borussia Dorrmunt and Milan will end in victory for Borussia. Based on the results of their last game, Borussia had more chances to win and was more progressive. Milan, in their own style, played sluggishly and unconfidently. Let's hope that the next match will give us more decisions regarding further forecasts in the standings. Well, of course it will put all the dots)))

I will be happy if your prediction comes true. Because personally  I like PSG team and Luis Enrique. I  don't want them to get knocked out in the first round of the Champions  League. I know the situation  of PSG team is not very good right now. But  Luis Enrique is trying to strengthen  the team gradually. And he has  managed to stabilize this team as well. Perhaps we will see more organized performances from PSG in the future if they qualify for the knockout rounds.

PSG lost the first leg  match against Newcastle  by a big margin. PSG's players will have to try  their best to avenge the previous humiliating defeat. And if PSG's players stay confident they have the ability to pull off a big win against Newcastle.

The Manchester United coach figured out that the entire normal lineup of players would run away from him.
Using the example of Jadon Sancho - whom Hag did not let onto the field because of his conflict with him. Second in line is Richarlison. but this is no longer a transfer by mutual consent. By disbanding the Manchester United squad, the rescue will remain with the broken core. The club is hanging by a thread before the abyss and Hag is only making the situation worse! It's time to kick this trainer in the face!

I think this is really true, Erik ten Hag has had too many issues with too many players that seemingly had not only to do with their performances on the pitch, but also with personal disputes. ten Hag would never confirm that, but this is what I think most people understood from what was said at press conferences and interviews that also the players gave. Some of them tried to be quiet, but you could tell from their wording that something is not going well in the locker room. He has made several decisions regarding the squad that I never understood. Maybe I have seen the Ronaldo vs. Ten Hag dispute in a wrong way back then. I thought Ronaldo is mostly to blame. NowTen Hag got the bill for his behavior in the Champions League.
