UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

Do you know how long Kevin De Bruyne have been away for Manchester City? If I'm recalling correctly, he's been out Injured since the Super Cup finals against Sevilla and during that game he didn't play for too long, no direct contact was seen from any player and someone here be saying we evil for giving our own opinions on matters. If they're not mature enough to ignore things, they should try not to become a prick.

For long term plans, I feel like they should plan ahead for a possible replacement. Check the performance of Erling Haaland, is it same as that of his first season? He has the best passes and combination from Kevin De Bruyne. He be still the leading goal scoring player but has seen a drop also struggles with his goals and contributions.

Even top teams with big finances are not always able to play at the highest level, recessions are a normal phenomenon and this is normal not only for the team but also for the players. Haaland showed excellent results in the previous season and set many records, do you think it’s so easy to exceed your achievements every year? Don't worry, Guardiola is a great coach and if he needs new players he will find them.

Well of course him being injured is going to have an effect on his performance. But at the same time it is also true that his performance has dropped quite significantly. And it is definitely time for Manchester City to look for a replacement. Because he is already starting to get injured. Who knows for how long he will actually be able to compete?

So yes I think for long-term plans, Manchester City should start thinking about a replacement. Maybe get a young player and shape him up to be a good replacement. Or maybe just go and get a player who will be another great one. They can afford it in my opinion.

I completely understand your perspective. A major concern is the lack of clarity surrounding De Bruyne's condition. However, I don't think City needs to move quickly to recruit a replacement. They have a really strong roster, and Mahrez and Gundogan are capable of filling in for him. Not to mention the magic Pep can perform with the team. He has a knack of putting on fantastic performances even in the absence of important players. I believe it would be wiser for City to hold off on making any snap choices until after De Bruyne has healed. Regarding purchasing a new star player, they certainly have the means to do so, but money isn't always the deciding factor, is it? Team dynamics are invaluable

Real Sociedad progress in the Champions League this season cannot be underestimated, they won group D which contained Inter Milan who were finalists in the UCL last season, PSG qualified for the knockout stages by finishing second in Group F. Luis Enrique who serves as PSG coach, is no stranger to Real Sociedad, he previously faced Real Sociedad when he was still coach of Barcelona. Sociedad also has several players who have played for the Spanish national team in the Luis Enrique era.

This is a difficult match for PSG because the improvement process carried out by Luis Enrique in the PSG squad is not completely perfect, they are still having difficulty bringing out their best abilities in the UCL even though they managed to top the Ligue 1 standings. Luis Enrique experience against teams from Spain is very important for PSG, especially now that they are in the knock-out round, a small mistake in the first leg can have a big impact in the second leg.

Yes that's right. PSG should not underestimate Real Sociedad, even though PSG is materially superior, that doesn't mean Real Sociedad won't give a surprise in this match. Apart from that, Real Sociedad is one of the best home teams in La Liga but their biggest strength is their performance away from home.

They are not afraid of anyone and are good enough to play their style anywhere. Based on two matches in La Liga this season they managed to beat Real Madrid and Barcelona, the score was 1-2, and beating Real Madrid 2-0 at the Bernabeu was not an easy thing. So considering Real Sociedad an easy opponent is a big mistake for PSG, I think PSG must be careful with Real Sociedad's game.

I'm keeping steady tater tots and relaxed at home, hoping to enter the new knowing confidently that Les Parisiens will qualify to the next UCL phase which is the round of 8. There's experience and there's action, better to engaged in both because that's the only way to build up good connection for the matches that ought to be played. The UEFA Champions League Round of 16 have be classified easy for Paris Saint-Germain but they can also messed things up for everyone, we know how vulnerable the club can be and I've solid idea of Real Sociedad becoming one of the underrated club and that's good points for Sociedad to implement and strive for good spot.

Of course PSG must evaluate well so that they can advance to the next round because the match will be more difficult than we imagined in the round of 16. Real Sociedad cannot be underestimated, they are one of the teams with strong ambitions to become champions this season, even these two teams have never met before, so it will be quite difficult to predict the final result. Even though PSG has quality players in their team, if they can't make the most of the first leg then they will have difficulties in the second leg.

Even in the Champions League this season, several teams that have qualified that cannot be underestimated are those who can surprise the big teams. The teams from Laliga performed better in the Champions League this season so PSG must think carefully about being able to beat Real Sociedad in the first leg. Maybe I see this is a bigger obstacle for psg when they meet a team they have rarely played against before.

Sociedad is indeed one of the dark horse clubs at the moment, not only in the Champions League but even in the domestic competition because who would have thought that they would top the table in their first debut in the Championd League beating Inter, Benfica and Salzburg which if we talk about strength and experience then Sociedad is behind these 3 clubs.
Now the last 16 seems to be a bit favorable for PSG because they don't meet Madrid and Manchester City just like the previous few seasons but when looking at Sociedad of course this can also be a concern because after all with the achievements that Sociedaf has got in the group phase this will make them more motivated.
PSG is definitely the favorite again but I don't think it will be an easy match especially since PSG's curse of the Round of 16 still persists. I expect something more from Sociedad in this because if they are able to qualify this is really a good achievement for them.

It looks like nearly all of the teams whose names have been called with the European Super League have rejected to play under this format. There are rumours about only Barcelona and Real Madrid to be okay with that but surely this format won't work with only these 2 teams.    As a result I don't expect UEFA to face any competition in the near future.

There are only two teams who are still participating in the ESL> It's a failed project initiated by perez. Real madrid and barcelona are the only clubs that will be playing on the super league. Super league is just a way for spanish team to gather more money caused by were unable to received more.
We do know that how spanish teams have very big debts compared to the team from other league. It's very good to see that almost all of teams were rejecting to join in the ESL. They do know that so well if ESL will not give them all the advantage.
Perez wants more money, and this is why he was initiating such idea. The club shall not force their play like machine.

By the way UEFA president Ceferin said that football was not for sale. I understand him about why he used this sentence considering these speculations. However this statement is normally not much sincere to tell the truth. Things can really change a lot when organizers are offered a lot of money. 

Just try to take the fact that if almost all clubs have been leaving to participate in that competition. Glad to see that ESL is officially failed. UCL is the best competition in european competition even the world.
There must no be a new competition and this is only disrupting the current system. It's very good to see that all of teams have been withdrawing themselves from ESL. They were caring more to keep their participations in the available competition instead of risking themselves to go to the ESL

[Rengga Jati]

Napoli and Barcelona may not be in their best form, but Napoli are no more experienced in the Champions League than Barcelona. I believe Xavi can get his team to play better from now on and win more games, but he has to be very careful against Napoli. After all, Napoli still have great players who can give Barcelona suffering until they fail to qualify for the quarter-finals.

Currently both of them are not in their best performance, we can say that both Barcelona and Napoli are experiencing a little difficulty in optimizing their performance. However, fortunately, Barcelona has a coach who is actually quite solid at Barcelona, ​​while Napoli is still in its early days with Mazzarri. So maybe Barcelona should have a better chance. But, Napoli also have great players, so this will be interesting..

[tbterryboy]

If we compare PSG and Real Sociedad, I think PSG still has a better chance than Real Sociedad of winning and qualifying for the quarter-finals. Even though it is true that Real Sociedad also won group D, leading over Inter and only goal difference is the difference, but that doesn't mean Real Sociedad is better than PSG.

Because after all, playing in the knockout phase of the Champions League clearly has different pressure too, what's more PSG is a team that has good dominance in Ligue 1 . Also, basically Enrique is used to facing or against La Liga teams and with the experience Enrique has like that. So ya, of course Enrique really understands the right strategy for playing against Real Sociedad later and thus, of course PSG has a very good chance of beating Real Sociedad.

Yep. In theory, PSG should be superior against Real Sociedad. PSG has better quality players and they have more experience in UCL. PSG should be easier to deal with the pressure to win the match in knock-out phase. PSG also has a good squad depth, specifically for the attacking line. It is a bit different with Real Sociedad, they have no many quality players, their squad depth can't be as well as PSG. However, it doesn't mean PSG is impossible to surprise us.

Another advantage of PSG is they have an experienced coach for UCL competition. Enrique is very familiar with UCL because he ever won it with Barcelona in the season of 2014-2015. He also won UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club world cup in the season 2015-2016.

It's not all about theoretically I have feeling in ground realities are also PSG are far ahead from the Real Sociedad, and they can bring them down for the spot into last eight even for the real time game we have to wait for the many weeks, but mostly things are favouring PSG for the having better spot they are having few top quality stars and their current coach is also one of the best who is doing this for long time and also understand how to enter into ground against teams like these but still as we all know soccer and UEFA Champions League is never been easily predictable so for the result we have to watch for the match.

PSG which is giving his best for years and never have any success in this season mostly were feeling they could be again going down and have no enough chances their knock-out start is good and with this now I have feeling they can jump into last four as well which could be huge success for them in this season.

But, Napoli also have great players, so this will be interesting..

It seems like there is a gap between players and coaches for this song and indeed Barcelona is slightly ahead because they have a coach who has been irreplaceable in the last 2 seasons. Meanwhile, Napoli have a good squad but not their current coach. I think the match will be full of surprises and we can see that these two teams are at the same level. However, this is the first time for Barcelona to be in the last 16 after two consecutive seasons they failed to reach this round. Apart from all that, I am curious whether Barcelona will win the two legs against Napoli or have to return home after the long journey they have been on since the last few seasons in the Champions League.

[TelolettOm]

Since PSG will play against Real Sociedad, I'm very sure that they will have a good chance to qualify for the next round. It is true that PSG didn't play consistently during this season, they sometimes got surprising defeats or draws. However, I believe PSG has much better quality squad over Real Sociedad. PSG still have some stars players in their squad, they have a special advantage in the match against Real Sociedad.

When the draw for Uefa Champions League round of 16 where made I knew that Paris Saint-German would win against Real Sociedad because PSG had more experience players who had played in the Uefa Champions League than Real Sociedad, and that will help PSG best Real Sociedad.

That's the mean.
This is a match in a prestigious match, UCL, of course all clubs will try their best to win. So here, PSG and Real Sociedad will definitely not give up easily and will compete optimally. But of course, there are several factors that we discussed earlier that give PSG a greater chance of continuing to the next round. This is not meant to underestimate Real Sociedad, but to calculate the chance based on their lineups.

It seems like there is a gap between players and coaches for this song and indeed Barcelona is slightly ahead because they have a coach who has been irreplaceable in the last 2 seasons. Meanwhile, Napoli have a good squad but not their current coach. I think the match will be full of surprises and we can see that these two teams are at the same level.

Unfortunately, even though Napoli have strong players, they are not as solid as before and especially because the coach is still new. And it seems like they are not very strong given the current conditions. They still have several challenges that make Napoli unable to play optimally. So, here Barcelona should be able to take this opportunity to excel. Xavi must develop tactics that can take advantage of all available opportunities, because this is a match for prestige also in the UCL.

PSG is a great club with great potentials to achieve great things though luck has not been on their side for some time now as they haven't been lucky enough to win any European title since they were taken over by the Qatari owners some decades ago but I think with Luis Enrique in charge as coach and with his philosophy and style of play we do hope that PSG will get it right this time and break the jinx and bring the UCL to Paris.

Real Sociedad is clearly still too far away from becoming champions, maybe their targets in the Champions League are a little different, at least Real Sociedad may want to show their existence first to the strongest teams. Because this is UCL where there are still candidates such as Bayern Munich, Man City and Madrid, of course Real Sociedad is aware that their current strength still cannot exceed that. So for now Real Sociedad will try to risk everything against PSG, so if they are able to beat PSG until Real Sociedad finishes in the top 4 then they can become a promising candidate. But it all requires support that is not small, conquering the UCL is not just about ambition but about the mentality of the players that a club has.

But, Napoli also have great players, so this will be interesting..

These two teams both won their respective league championships last season but now both teams are not performing well, of course this will be an interesting match.

But for me what is interesting about these two teams is Batcelona because this is a big test to show how ready Barcelona is to compete in the best club competition. This is a weak Napoli team compared to last season, If barcelona can't overcome it, this is a big sign that Xavi may not be the coach who can take Barcelona forward.

When Xavi first came to the club, the team's week to week performance was spectacular, but now it is very poor. As a coach, over time you want to improve, not the other way around, where you start off good and then go bad.

I completely understand your belief that PSG will make it to the round of 8 in the UCL. It looks like they'll win because they have a strong team and Mbappe is dedicated and talented. However, I must say that Im somewhat concerned about what follows. While the quarterfinals are a completely different game, PSG hasnt always done well in important UCL moments. Premier League teams like Real Madrid and Manchester City are playing very well, and it doesnt look like PSG will be able to beat these big teams. Although PSG wants to show me Im wrong, I have a sneaking suspicion that their journey might come to an end in the quarters.

But, Napoli also have great players, so this will be interesting..

While it is true that you have Xavi on your side, the burden of paying off debts for your club may force you to sell a significant number of players. This is also becoming another problem for barcelona. According to the latest news report, it has been stated that Barcelona intends to put as many players as possible on the market for sale.

This is the main problem that may not able to be solved by barcelona. Debts is always become a nightmare for barcelona right now. Xavi needs to prepare a new strategy as he will be losing a lot of players. Barcelona is in the race with the time caused by the club has short term debt that needs to be paid by the club.
Barcelona was rarely able in buying the good player due to the financial condition.

[Weawant]

PSG would have had a chance with the UCL this season and ofcos they are still in the race so it's not like they are totally out of the way yet but then they don't have the form that looks very promising enough to appear like a team that will be able to win the champions league title this season.

PSG seem to have a problem with been able to win the UCL because at a time they did had all the stars that would have helped them an that was last season butter they were unable to win the UCL, they need to build on their team work and next season there are chances mbappe may leave which will make things more difficult for them, if they are able to get a good team spirit just like Leverkusen I'm very optimistic it wouldn't be long they will bring their dream of the UCL to reality, because even in the presence of the stars, if they don't have good coordination and team spirit, they will most likely not be able to win even in next few seasons ahead.

Maybe I see this is a bigger obstacle for psg when they meet a team they have rarely played against before.

Real Sociedad was one of the strongest teams in the Spanish La Liga last season and that's why they were able to finish in the top four of the league. But they've not been as impressive as they were last season in the league and that's why a lot of people are thinking that they'll be easily beaten by Paris Saint Germain.

Paris Saint Germain are without doubt a better team in terms of quality of player  when compared to Real Sociedad and would definitely want to play their best I the two legged tie to make sure they reach the quarter finals of the competition  but that doesn't automatically mean that they're gonna easily beat Real Sociedad.  The Spanish team will surely not want to be sent our of the competition in a humiliating way and would also give their best in the tie. I'm optimistic that Paris Saint Germain ate gonna win that tie but that'll only happen if they don't underestimate the strength of Real Sociedad as gge Spanish side has the capacity of pulling up a surprise I'm that tie

But, Napoli also have great players, so this will be interesting..

Experience sometimes affects their performances in the Champions League, because with experience their mentality will be more tested. Last season Napoli performed very well, but in the Champions League they performed mediocre and even they were eliminated by a team that also came from Serie A. Their mentality has not been created very well, because the atmosphere in the Champions League is very different from the domestic league, even though their opponents also come from the same league.
But considering the performances of both are still not able to show good consistency, so it is difficult to predict this match.

Of course PSG must evaluate well so that they can advance to the next round because the match will be more difficult than we imagined in the round of 16. Real Sociedad cannot be underestimated, they are one of the teams with strong ambitions to become champions this season, even these two teams have never met before, so it will be quite difficult to predict the final result.

But it all requires support that is not small, conquering the UCL is not just about ambition but about the mentality of the players that a club has.

Compared to other teams including their opponents this time, Paris Saint Germain, it is clear that Real Sociedad is still below Paris Saint Germain or the other teams you mentioned here. But I agree with you that their target may not be a title, but reaching the semi-finals is already a great achievement for Real Sociedad, so there is no reason Real Sociedad can be underestimated in the Champions League.
Real Sociedad are one of four teams from La Liga to make it to the last 16, and if we look at those four teams, Real Sociedad are the weakest. But again I say that doesn't mean with such status they will be easy to beat.

Of course PSG must evaluate well so that they can advance to the next round because the match will be more difficult than we imagined in the round of 16. Real Sociedad cannot be underestimated, they are one of the teams with strong ambitions to become champions this season, even these two teams have never met before, so it will be quite difficult to predict the final result.

Even in the Champions League this season, several teams that have qualified that cannot be underestimated are those who can surprise the big teams. The teams from Laliga performed better in the Champions League this season so PSG must think carefully about being able to beat Real Sociedad in the first leg. Maybe I see this is a bigger obstacle for psg when they meet a team they have rarely played against before.

I don't know what your assumption is to make real sociedad the favorite to win this season. Although that is not impossible in football but in the Champions League, We know that other team still dominate the Champions league as favorites to win, Such as bayern munich, Manchester city and also real madrid. I will not refer to the improvement in performance of a team in the group phase and that is a strong reference that they will be able to become one of the teams included in the ranks of team that are candidates for winning the title. In fact, I think that psg will be able to stop real sociedad performance in the round of 16 because psg is more experienced in the Champions League and also has a better performance compared to them.

You can see the strength of other teams such as Bayern munich, Real madrid, which are able to perform better this season, Even these two teams are not only strong in the champions league, They also appear impressive in the domestic league. Therefore, I am sure that Real Sociedad will not be able to go further in the Champions League this season.

Even though both of them don't look very good at the moment, Barcelona's performance in the Champions League cannot be underestimated, while Napoli experienced a much worse decline compared to Barcelona, but at least both teams still have a chance to qualify for the next round. If both of them are able to perform the best and surprising I myself really support Barcelona because in terms of squad and experience, Barcelona is further ahead of Napoli, so I might favor Barcelona more, but that doesn't mean I underestimate Napoli, it's just that this match is a little difficult for of us to predict.

Of course PSG must evaluate well so that they can advance to the next round because the match will be more difficult than we imagined in the round of 16. Real Sociedad cannot be underestimated, they are one of the teams with strong ambitions to become champions this season, even these two teams have never met before, so it will be quite difficult to predict the final result. Even though PSG has quality players in their team, if they can't make the most of the first leg then they will have difficulties in the second leg.

Even in the Champions League this season, several teams that have qualified that cannot be underestimated are those who can surprise the big teams. The teams from Laliga performed better in the Champions League this season so PSG must think carefully about being able to beat Real Sociedad in the first leg. Maybe I see this is a bigger obstacle for psg when they meet a team they have rarely played against before.

PSG is a great club with great potentials to achieve great things though luck has not been on their side for some time now as they haven't been lucky enough to win any European title since they were taken over by the Qatari owners some decades ago but I think with Luis Enrique in charge as coach and with his philosophy and style of play we do hope that PSG will get it right this time and break the jinx and bring the UCL to Paris.

They don't have that squad yet to challenge for the Champions League, it'll definitely take them this season to organize the players who will fit in for that. They would qualify when they face Real Sociedad it not so sure how it'll be in the fixtures ahead. I know amf love Luis Enrique, he is a brilliant coach he will definitely infuse whatever he has Into this players. That club has long for the Champions League and they'll get it.

Barcelona will definitely beat Napoli, Walter Mazzari is not even the man for Napoli, this are just try and error coaches, for long term, you need a better and tactical genius for that club.
