UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Roseline492]

Currently, Madrid players have a lot of talented young players, which is why Manchester City might consider their meeting in the UCL this season, even though in the UCL match last season Manchester City beat Madrid with a landslide score, it doesn't mean that this season their meeting will get the same result.

Yeah of course real Madrid has a lot of young and talented players and they may likely win the trophy this season, and however we cannot consider the performance of Manchester City last season with there performance this season because the difference is clear because there last season they were able to beat real Madrid and win the trophy but I don't think there performance this season is enough to win the trophy again because the major clubs that has the best chance of this champions League currently is real Madrid and Bayern Munich but with the poor performance of Bayern Munich lately I doubt if they could last long if they are not able to peak form again and however even if Manchester City should manage to scale through the finals they will not be able to win real Madrid.

All coaches need strong support from management to bring in players who suit their coaching characteristics, Pep Guardiola is a coach who has good qualities and he also has experience, Pep Guardiola has shown enough proof and no one doubts him anymore.
Likewise with Xavi Hernandez, who brought Barcelona out of its downturn when he first arrived, but now what is happening is not entirely Xavi's fault because management is not providing sufficient support for Xavi to bring in quality players.

We shouldn't just look at the results that Barcelona got, but overall their performance has really decreased compared to last season and I think with Barcelona's current quality and performance they are not worthy of competing in the UCL this season, I think Barcelona will not go any further in the course of the UCL this season.

Different conditions make the way of working and the results will be different too. Pep is supported because they have unlimited resources until now so Pep can do whatever he wants to Manchesrer City including reshuffling again and again but the difference occurs with Xavi here where he is indeed supported but his resources are inadequate so that his support is only what he can from Barcelona because they do not have enough resources but the demands of the fans and management are always excessive actually for Xavi because he is demanded by the fans and management. have sufficient resources even until now their financial situation seems very lacking but the demands of the fans and management are always excessive actually for Xavi because he is required to perform perfectly in improving Barcelona's performance with minimal financial problems that make him unable to do much to make the changes he wants.
This is a differentiator that makes the results will also be significant in the end and I agree with what you said because with this seeing the situation that happened Pep and Xavi cannot be compared just like that because even though they are both coaches of big clubs but the current situation is very different.

Guardiola has a lot of experience... in defeat  If I'm not mistaken, he is already a record holder or close to first place among coaches who reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Moreover, he always did this as a favorite and almost always lost, hehe. Therefore, I don’t know how good he is in this regard, as paradoxical as it may be to say that he (or his team) does not have a champion’s mentality. I will always remember the season before last when Real beat them and it was clear from the faces of the City players before extra time that they understood who would win.

Pep Guardiola holds the stronger hands this season. Reaching the quarterfinals does not appear challenging for Manchester City; they are the most significant club in terms of performance, constantly rising to the top and refusing to stop until they have finally hit the jackpot by winning major trophies. Manchester City has risen to prominence as the UCL's reigning champions. Pep Guardiola has a distinct ratio with his opponents, who have been awarded with good scores. Pep Guardiola is the best coach in the EPL, having led Manchester City in the past and current.

Nope. Not even close. Guardiola has the usual average result of a random coach. I think that with the financial and cheating capabilities of City, dozens of coaches would have achieved the same result (and most likely even greater if we take into account the Champions League). To prove at least something, he must achieve results with at least an ordinary top club like Liverpool/Chelsea/Milan/Atletico, etc. I'm not talking about making something out of nothing, but at least with an ordinary top club. If you give me Bayern (+budget) I will also become the champion of Germany, although I have not coached any club before

Pep Guardiola has made his name as a coach who has a brilliant history as a coach at Barcelona and also as a former Barcelona player. He has contributed many trophies to Barcelona during his time as coach there. So it is impossible for him to dare to return there because it would potentially ruin his own good record there. Because being a coach at a club that has financial problems is not an easy thing. Only a handful of coaches are able to bring a club that is in financial trouble but can still win a championship trophy. And actually Xavi is also a good coach. But we know that even Xavi has to hold back to be able to get good players. Even the condition of Barcelona's front line is not good enough after Lewandowski aged and was no longer productive. So Barcelona could only borrow a player from Atletico Madrid, namely Felix, to cover this problem. And yes this is not an easy thing for a coach.

As a coach who has had great success like Pep Guardiola, it is unlikely that he will return to Barcelona if this team is not supported by good financial support. Barcelona has big problems as a team that has history in La Liga and Europe, but they have been hit because their finances have not improved. Of course they are struggling to solve the problem and several approaches have been taken, but still they cannot solve it as quickly as expected.

Xavi arrived in the midst of Barcelona's dire financial condition and he fought and did everything he could. He was successful in his second season, especially by winning two titles, but Xavi was under pressure to maintain his team's performance in the third season. This season, many people want him out, but it feels unfair to fire the coach who has brought Barcelona's performance to where it is today.

The most interesting fact is all of the favorite teams e.g. Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan are currently not stand in the first position in their respective domestic leagues. I guess it will be unpredictable, but both of Manchester City and Bayern Munich have a big gap points difference, unlike Real Madrid and Inter that are behind one point.

Since I want to see a new name, I hope Inter will become a champion lol.

Manchester City and Bayern Munich are still struggling to catch up with the points deficit from their rivals to reach first place in their domestic league, while Real Madrid and Inter Milan can still return to the top of the standings because they still have one match remaining. Even though Manchester City and Bayern Munich are not at the top of the standings in the domestic league, it will not change their status as favorite teams because of their very good performance in the UCL.

These teams must continue to be at the top of their performance to maintain their chances of becoming UCL champions. Inter Milan really wants to become champions this season after failing in last season's final. Inter's journey is still difficult for its competitors in the domestic league, making it a team that its competitors must be wary of.

[Patrol69]

Manchester City is the defending champion they will want to retain the title again, Real Madrid could not win the Champions League trophy last season they will definitely try their best to win the Champions League trophy this season.  On the other hand, Bayern Munich have made several changes to their team in order to win the Champions League, they will not let any team down.

Mancity and Real are names that are mentioned a lot for this year's UCL championship, but I personally think that the team that needs the most attention this year is Bayern Munich. They are in extremely stable form this season, their players are in extremely good form, especially Harry Kane - a player who is a terror to defenders. It can be seen that Bayern's playing style is less dependent on a specific individual like Mancity or Real. Their midfield is also formidable with Kimmich and rising young star Musiala, giving their midfield depth and good support for the attack above.

As I mentioned Bayern Munich have made quite a few changes to their club this season. There must be reasons behind the fact that they brought in Harry Kane from Tottenham for a significant transfer fee. We are seeing a more positive change in Harry Ken's performance coming to Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich is performing very well this season. Bayern Munich is performing well this season which is why we expect and include this team in the list of favourites. Bayern Munich have potential but Real Madrid will be a big obstacle for Bayern Munich. Real Madrid has relied more on young players this season so there are good expectations for Real Madrid this season as well. Any team that does well in the Champions League must fight hard against a team like Real Madrid and then do well.

[QueenVera]

Currently, Madrid players have a lot of talented young players, which is why Manchester City might consider their meeting in the UCL this season, even though in the UCL match last season Manchester City beat Madrid with a landslide score, it doesn't mean that this season their meeting will get the same result. Madrid's strength is quite good this season, which is why I don't expect Manchester City to meet Madrid in the UCL quarter-finals or semi-finals this season.

I think it would be better for them to meet in the UCL final because it determines the strength of both of them better. I still see Manchester City looking quite good since the return of their players from injury. That's what makes Manchester City come back into consideration now, but if in the future they will meet again in semi-finals or quarter-finals, of course Manchester City will have difficulty against Madrid this time because as far as I can see they have performed very well in several matches, even in the domestic league, with talented young players who have been put forward to be quite a good force in terms of stamina and performance. I am sure that Madrid and Manchester City will win the title this season, no other club is the favorite.

Real Madrid vs Manchester City will be one tough match at any stage of the Ucl but will be more fun to watch in the final where it’ll be a single leg match. Yes, City were able to go past them last season and we must credit them for that performance. The difference is clear now that Madrid has real improved and would be a hard nut to crack for City. The talents in this Madrid side are purly on another level and you’ve got to require more than talent to beat them. To defeat them you’ve to be on another level.

 For this match, it’ll be one fierce encounter and I’m very sure Madrid will come out top of this encounter. Madrid has improved so good that they didn’t lost their UCL group stage matches which has Italian Champions, Napoli in it, they’ve won 2 El Classicos this season already and the Spanish Super Cup and are currently sitting ontop the league. The talent, and experience of these Madrid team will be a hard force to reckon with if you want to go past them in the UCL.

[bering]

Barcelona are in a complicated situation now. Xavi is having really tough days and he lately had an argument with the players about their performance. I don't see Barcelona as a serious title contender either as a result. We all saw what Real Madrid did to them in the Spanish Super Cup. Barcelona are staying weak against strong opponents. 

I even expect Barcelona to get eliminated against Napoli with this performance. I'm saying this even though I know Napoli are worse than last season.

Do you think Barcelona can eliminate Napoli by playing like this?

It has been discussed before because basically Barcelona and Napoli has similar problem that their performance at their domestic league doesn't really good especially for Napoli because previously they were suffering several defeat which make their position is dropped and currently Napoli even have to out from top 4 at league standings and several days ago Napoli too has failed to gets their first trophy this season because they were lost at Super Coppa final match from Inter Milan so i think if we compared between these teams Barcelona is slightly better than Napoli because at least their position is still at top 4

But indeed Barcelona owner didn't accept the failure because if Xavi want to secured his position as a manager so he have to bringing Barcelona to eliminate Napoli because if Xavi unable to do that most likely he will be sacked and for European competitions Barcelona under Xavi still hasn't displayed good performance even last season Barcelona have to play at round of 16 for Europa League because for Champions league group stages Barcelona have to finish at 3rd place and about this match first leg will be held at Napoli home ground and if Barcelona can able to not lost from this match i think there is a chance for them to advances to the quarterfinal and Napoli records during group stages also not impressive because Real Madrid can beat them twice so Barcelona have to utilized this record to at least get draw result at Napoli home ground

[ancafe]

I hope that closer to the final, Tuchel will change something in the team, because Bayern now does not look very confident, from poor defense to unstable play.

Why do you think City won't reach the final this season? In my opinion, the ideal final would be Real - City, at the moment, these two teams seem to me the most worthy contenders for winning the tournament. And I would like Guardiola to be able to win this tournament twice in a row, this would be an excellent achievement for such a coach. But Real also looks very strong now, so the chances of these teams are equal.

Maybe because you look at the results of their last match when they were defeated by Werder Bremen so you can see how unlucky they were in that match even though they were playing at home. But for me this doesn't make any assumptions because sometimes we can't predict the outcome of a match according to the scheme implemented by the coach. Anyone deserves to be in the final but all of us have different views and although Real Madrid and Manchester City are the ideal final this season.

I see how it will be quite difficult for the defending champions to survive to reach the final for the second time in a row, unless Real Madrid has the ability to do it and Manchester City does not have the same ability as Real Madrid. I prefer to see the final between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich because I want to see how these two representatives fight again to win the title.

[hahay]

Inter Milan really wants to become champions this season after failing in last season's final. Inter's journey is still difficult for its competitors in the domestic league, making it a team that its competitors must be wary of.

We can't see what happens in the domestic league to these top teams, in fact sometimes they are more concerned or more focused on the UCL compared to the domestic league so they will play it all out here.
In terms of strength, Manchester City and Bayern are above the average of other teams so they should not be underestimated and should not be looked at by what is happening in their domestic league.

Yes indeed, their position in the domestic league standings does not have a big impact on their performance and results in the Champions League and ya, ofcourse these seeded teams will still have a good chance in the Champions League this time . After all,it seems like these top teams at this moment also have their own obstacles, such as key players who are injured and also need some recovery in their performance too . So ya, at least for this reason, it seems that the Champions League knockout phase competition this time has a balanced level and/or is not much different for the top teams that are predicted to qualify for the next round.

[Jody.Drummer]

Real Madrid's domination is just enormous though. The year is 2024 and they are still competitive in the Champions League as always.    They are the most consistent team here. However I wonder whether this can change in the future. Because there is especially a threat like Manchester City for the upcoming years including this one. They became the champions for the first time previously and they are going for a back-to-back now.

What do you think about Real Madrid this season? Can they stop Manchester City from a back-to-back title? Or do you have another favourite in your mind to win the title?

The most interesting fact is all of the favorite teams e.g. Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan are currently not stand in the first position in their respective domestic leagues. I guess it will be unpredictable, but both of Manchester City and Bayern Munich have a big gap points difference, unlike Real Madrid and Inter that are behind one point.

Since I want to see a new name, I hope Inter will become a champion lol.

It is possible that Inter Milan can exceed what they achieved last season, last season they became runners up because they had to lose narrowly to Manchester City, this season they have the opportunity to surpass that and become champions. This season Inter Milan are also playing better than last season, I think we all here feel the same way about the development of the performance of Inter Milan, so that makes them very likely to win the Champions League this season.
But we cannot deny that the journey to get there will be very tough, they have competitors who are no less good, especially big names like Real Madrid who have a very good mentality when in the Champions League.

Do you think Barcelona can eliminate Napoli by playing like this?

How did they play against Real Betis over the weekend? Impressive? Luck?¿!

Despite the poor performance of Barcelona this season, Napoli believe me this season is not that side to defeat Barcelona. As I'm certain to say that Barcelona will successfully win and qualify for the next round.

Speculations can go around flying and swinging just so he could be sacked and also so they the media could get them clicks from such speculations and news.
That might just be a rising tone and they'll decode a wrong information to the public. Xavi Hernandez is currently being backed by the management of Barcelona, he won't be sacked. Surely, he'll defeat Napoli and Walter Mazzari side.

The UEFA Champions League title have to be revived by the main competitor, Real Madrid. Carlo Ancelotti have built strong pillars surrounding Real Madrid. Winning matches was seen to be the routine of elite clubs but currently, mediocre teams do anticipates into fitting into the standards of elite clubs. The scenario we have watch Girona topping the La Liga table is no pure luck but a well strategized game brought them this far and they won't give up. Real Madrid have become competitive in all round competition, they deliver best results in every game fixtures, not backing down in performance other than giving 100%.

Possibilities or not for Inter Milan repeat their achievement lead until final stage depend on drawing matches after 16 of round, last season Inter most luckiness without have to face top team such as Real Madrid and Bayern Munich in quarter until semifinal round. But I doubt will Inter Milan have enough compete if the final match have to face with Manchester City or Real Madrid. Actually Inter Milan's performance in domestic league have better than last season, managed top position standings and won Supercoppa Italiana last match Simione Inzhagi have motivate his team for winning many tittles left in this season.

Left two week before facing Atletico Madrid in 16 of round, Inter Milan have very difficult domestic league matches against Juventus and AS Roma, which one match will priority by Inzhagi will make rotation in domestic league for his team get more focus in Champion League or without rotation yet but get potential some players will injury.

Pep Guardiola has made his name as a coach who has a brilliant history as a coach at Barcelona and also as a former Barcelona player. He has contributed many trophies to Barcelona during his time as coach there. So it is impossible for him to dare to return there because it would potentially ruin his own good record there. Because being a coach at a club that has financial problems is not an easy thing. Only a handful of coaches are able to bring a club that is in financial trouble but can still win a championship trophy. And actually Xavi is also a good coach. But we know that even Xavi has to hold back to be able to get good players. Even the condition of Barcelona's front line is not good enough after Lewandowski aged and was no longer productive. So Barcelona could only borrow a player from Atletico Madrid, namely Felix, to cover this problem. And yes this is not an easy thing for a coach.

But, it would also be something that would put his legacy up there with Sir Alex Ferguson as the best managers in the world. He won a lot with Barcelona first, then won "some" with Bayern, nothing major, then he turned City into the dominating football monster that they are right now. If he somehow returns to Barcelona, the possibility of him ruining his legacy is possible, but if he somehow turns the team around and makes them win the league and the ucl within a few seasons, then it would be unreal.

The problem is that, right now at City he has unlimited money, he buys whoever he wants, they may even get punished for financial fair play regulations reasons, that's how much money they spent, if he goes to Barcelona, that team has debt, so they can't get anyone he wants and could be a trouble.

[uchegod-21]

If for example Pep Guardiola returns to Barcelona, I personally believe Pep Guardiola will be able to restore Barcelona's performance. But yes, if for example Pep Guardiola still fails to restore Barcelona, then this will be proof that Pep Guardiola can only succeed at a club that has good finances . Therefore, it seems like it would be interesting if, for example, Pep Guardiola dared to return to Barcelona because yes, if Pep Guardiola managed to restore Barcelona with financial chaos like this, then Pep Guardiola would be the greatest coach of course . Because yes, basically Barcelona still has a squad that can be said to be good and therefore, if for example Pep Guardiola returns to Barcelona, I personally still believe Pep Guardiola will still be successful.

Pep Guardiola has made his name as a coach who has a brilliant history as a coach at Barcelona and also as a former Barcelona player.

I do not even know where the rumor of Pep Guardiola returning to Barcelona emanated from. Secondly, Pep Guardiola has nothing to prove to anyone about his career. That man is specially outstanding and he has proven it time without number. So, going back to Barcelona and becoming successful dear for the second time is never a yardstick to measure his success in coaching. If I were Pep Guardiola I would also not return to Barcelona, instead, if I am tired of Manchester City I would go to national team and possibly retired from there. It is not every coach that manages average players to get results, an average coach would have to manage average players. But a coach like Pep Guardiola obviously needs world class players to make football a good thing to watch. I am not in any way saying that Pep Guardiola cannot achieve results with the set of Barcelona players currently, but I am saying that making such a switch or taking such a decision at this stage of his career is really not necessary and would not be as appreciated by his personal fans.

Do you think Barcelona can eliminate Napoli by playing like this?

Eliminate Barcelona from the UEFA champions league is impossible right? Every team have a weak spot and Napoli new coach, Walter Mazzarri can easily spot the big difference between his opponents and his team, afterall he managed Napoli and basically knows the buttons to press inother to grab good points in matches. There's something we all should believed regarding the status of Barcelona, they might not be in good shape in La Liga and struggling in other tournaments, but when it comes to UEFA Champions League, we're aware how tough and important the tournament is, winning becomes a priority.

[kawetsriyanto]

Only a miracle or a few bad choices can make another champion of this CHampiosn LEague asides of Manchester city or Real Madrid, i really dont see any other team in good form to be a contender this year, maybe and only because they are good in head to head Atletico Madrid, but we already know they are not so solid this year.

No doubt if Man City and Real Madrid are 2 favorite teams to win the UCL title. They are the teams that look play consistently and have strong squad. So most people hope the final UCL match will be Man City vs Real Madrid. However, we don't underestimate other teams such as Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Inter Milan, Atletico Madrid, and Barcelona. These teams also have good squad and they play quite well during the group stage. We also know that UCL often surprises us with unpredictable results.

Yes indeed, their position in the domestic league standings does not have a big impact on their performance and results in the Champions League and ya, ofcourse these seeded teams will still have a good chance in the Champions League this time .

Agree. The position of the teams in domestic league won't always describe the chance to win or lose in UCL matches. Last year, Inter Milan was very struggling in Serie A, they were only in the 3rd place. But they could go far in the UCL, they reached the final round against Man City. They even made Man City was quite difficult to win the final. So, sometimes the position in the domestic league doesn't mean a lot!

[QueenVera]

Barcelona vs Napoli in the UCL Round of 16, is one fixture that’s seen as 2 last season wonders who’re a shadow of themselves this season both competing in a match. Napoli are the pretty bad side when you compare these teams because they’re already out of Top 4 spot and will find ot difficult to get to that spot, because recently they’ve had series of losses and funny enough even lost out in the Super Coppa where they lost to Inter Milan. Barcelona are pretty better, the only issue is that the Barcelona squad isn’t clinical as they ought to be and that’s one big worry, the defense of this Barcelona side can’t be trusted as they’re not able to withstand a very good attack. Well to Xavi, I think his job is on the line especially with this fixture; he needs to get Barcelona to attain European success.

 This as easy as it may seem is quite a heavy task especially as he hasn’t been able to achieve a nice European success in his time as head coach of Barcelona. He also has to make sure they’re not finishing beyond 3rd in the league and that’s still under pressure because the team isn’t balanced yet. I think Xavi will have to do everything to make sure the first leg at Napoli’s ground ends in a draw or go in his favor else I think he’ll be without a job soon.

[rahmad2nd]

It is possible that Inter Milan can exceed what they achieved last season, last season they became runners up because they had to lose narrowly to Manchester City, this season they have the opportunity to surpass that and become champions. This season Inter Milan are also playing better than last season, I think we all here feel the same way about the development of the performance of Inter Milan, so that makes them very likely to win the Champions League this season.
But we cannot deny that the journey to get there will be very tough, they have competitors who are no less good, especially big names like Real Madrid who have a very good mentality when in the Champions League.

To be honest, I don't follow Inter Milan's developments in their Domestic League competition. however, referring to their ranking, it seems that Inter has experienced an increase in performance. or, the teams that are competitors in Serie A, experience a decline. for example, Napoli is currently ranked 9th. Milan performed quite well in Serie A, but its performance fell apart in the Champions League. Juve is quite interesting at being top of the standings, but they don't have as tight a schedule as last season.

Now, let's talk from Inter Milan's side. in fact, so far, Simone Inzhagi is still implementing his mainstay pattern, namely 3-5-2. however, Inter is the most productive team in terms of scoring goals in Serie A, a plus point for Simone Inzhagi and his team. one of the players who is quite productive in scoring goals is Lautaro Martinez with 18 goals in his 20 matches. however, Inter were not very bright in the Champions League, especially in the group D phase. 3 wins, 3 draws, with 12 points. with opponents, not a team that can be said to be elite in this competition.

Referring to what you said, does Inter Milan have a chance to exceed what they achieved last season? The answer is yes, but we'll see first whether Inter can beat Atletico Madrid in the two legs of the match. Well, at this point, we will first see how Inter defeated Atletico Madrid. If Inter is able to do this, the team that will be their opponent in the next phase will be a tougher opponent. So, let's just enjoy every match that Inter will play in this competition. Can Inzaghi bring his team back to the final match, or will they fall in the round of 16.
