UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[Lidger]

Most likely preparing the ground to face Man City in the Domestic League, at least holding Atalanta to a draw at their home is much more than enough and most likely, Arsenal will beat Atalanta at Arsenal's home, so this tactic and strategy is what Arteta uses in maintaining the stamina of the players, so that facing Man City at home all the players are in their best condition because we know these two clubs are tough competitors in their League so whatever the result is is a strategy so that Arsenal's points are not lost too much.

I think their tactic is not to hold Atalanta to a draw. On paper Arsenal are more favored to win this match. Although Atalanta were UEL champions last season but that is not enough to make people think they are on the same level. I am not underestimating Atalanta but in terms of individual quality I think Arsenal are better here. This season every team must be able to rotate players because of the tight schedule. I think Arteta tried to rotate by focusing on players in their best form in the match against Man City and still aiming for a win in the match against Atalanta. A draw is not good for both teams. Arsenal will play as hosts in the next match but I think if Arsenal are not in their best form the next match will also be disappointing for The Gunners fans.

The way Arsenal competed against Manchester City we naturally expected Arsenal to pick up full points against Atalanta in the Champions League but they failed there. Arsenal held to a goalless draw in their Champions League match against Atalanta. Even if we discuss the details of the match, there is no chance to keep Arsenal ahead. Throughout the period it seemed as though Arsenal were perhaps the weaker opposition to Atalanta and they were more focused on counter-attacking than attacking. If the opinion is given about the ball possession between the two teams, then we have clearly noticed that Atalanta have more possession in their favor than Arsenal.

Arsenal drew this match and have their second match in October against PSG where they will hope to win.

Nketiah scored 5 goals in 27 games last year. He wasn't a very productive forward. Crystal didn't start the league very well this year either. Arsenal actually lacks a forward like Haaland. The last time they didn't have a forward was probably during the Thierry Henry era. They must be an unlucky team because they've been feeling this lack for a long time. I think they need a forward like Haaland. Haaland scored 100 goals in 105 games for City. A statistic that could make them champions on its own.

Every player in the front line must have the instinct to score more goals because their job is to be able to finish well when there is a pass from their own team mates. While Arsenal's front line players are not like that although I also don't think they are bad because for this season Arsenal is still quite good in the domestic league and also in the Champions League. So they only need a few new adjustments to be able to increase their strength in the front line even though they don't have players like Haaland who always get more support from their teammates.

If we look deeper into comparing Arsenal and Man City, it's not actually a problem that Arsenal must have a striker like Haaland.
Now let's look at it logically and take examples from other league teams like Bayern Munich and Leverkusen.
Last season we all know that Munich had Kane with his scoring machine achievements and made a big contribution to the team. We even have predictions that Munich will be stronger last season. But the facts say that Leverkusen won the bundesliga title. While Leverkusen does not have a player like Kane.

Well, the conclusion is that Arsenal does not need a player like Haaland because Arsenal performance is actually very good. But what Arsenal needs is strong consistency.
If we look at Arsenal at the beginning of the season, they always give extraordinary performances both domestically and in the UCL. But at the end of the season they lose their energy and their performances are inconsistent.

I still have not heard the reason why Arsenal refused to get a good striker in the transfer window, after losing Eddie Nketiah in the summer and knowing what is at stake this season. It is about that time Arsenal bring in a prolific striker to the squad because they are lacking a very good finisher to lead their attacking play and guarantee at least 20 goals per season for the club.

In the summer transfer market this season, Arsenal was linked with Victor Oshimen. I think Arsenal's management is serious enough to recruit a striker who can strengthen their front line, but unfortunately it's just a rumor. Arsenal is not really serious about bringing him in, even though Victor Oshimen is a productive striker. He could be a rival for Haaland in the hunt for top scorers. Arsenal should consider recruiting a striker so that they don't lose another opportunity this season. Their only weakness is the front line so that they can continue to compete with Man City and Liverpool.

In fact, Arsenal also joined the hunt for Osimhen in the last summer transfer market, but an agreement failed to materialize because Napoli asking price was considered too expensive, Arsenal was reluctant to pay Osimhen release clause which reached 100 million pounds. Arsenal are a good choice for Osimhen, he will develop into a fearsome striker under Arteta. Maybe they will try to negotiate again with Napoli in the January transfer window to add strength to the front line after not bringing in a single striker in the summer transfer window this year, his arrival could also help Arsenal go further in the UCL. However, Arsenal are not the only EPL club that wants to bring in the Nigerian player, Chelsea are also very interested in bringing him in.

The sale of Nketiah to Crystal Palace is one way for Arsenal to get rid of less productive players, he is one of the attackers born from the Arsenal academy but unfortunately he is unable to compete with other attackers because of his inconsistent performance so far, the only regret of Arsenal fans at the moment is the absence of new striker recruitment made by Arteta in the transfer market last summer and it clearly gives has a bad impact on their front line, indeed so far Arsenal has an attacking line that is indeed quite productive by relying on their two wing lines but obviously without a central striker it will hinder Arsenal in the fight for the championship trophy, Arsenal will face a tough match in the Champions League and also the domestic league and if they continue to force Saka and Martinelli obviously it will leave both players vulnerable to injuries which will ultimately cost Arsenal later, after losing Thiery Henri and Van Persie, I dont know why so far Arsenal have had difficulty bringing in a central striker who does have a fairly high goalscoring instinct?

However, Arsenal are not the only EPL club that wants to bring in the Nigerian player, Chelsea are also very interested in bringing him in.

Two biggest barriers for Arsenal in a transfer: Request of expensive transfer cost from Napoli as that club never want to sell their players at cheap costs. Request of Osimhen with a lucrative salary as the player will not be ready to receive not too good salary offer from Arsenal.

It's impossible for Arsenal to break their player salary ceiling just to satisfy Osimhen and get this player in a paid or free transfer. Years ago, they refused to satisfy their captain Aubameyang who was important striker in their squad. That contract and salary conflict forced Aubameyang to leave Arsenal and it's not too far. Arsenal are ambitiously in building up a more competitive squad, especially in their attacking with a focus on striker position, but I believe they will not do this with all possible costs.

Breaking a player salary ceiling is always bad in long term and I doubt that Arsenal are ready to make this club policy break.

if you had watched that game very well you would have seen that Atalanta where the better side against Arsenal, don't even go to say that Atalanta is not strong as Arsenal, Atalanta played without any sign of weakness in that game, you might want to rate them not being on the same standard with Arsenal but every club that has qualified for the champions League came as a champion especially Atalanta that won the Europa League. I still blame that young man that went to play the penalty for Atalanta as he would have allowed ademola lookman to take the penalty kick,  maybe by now you would have understood that Atlanta came prepared if they had won that game.

I believe Atlanta is one of the good teams in Serie A but here we also need to understand they are having unpredictable nature which make things tough for them while one day they are having impressive performance then in next game they are having terrible performance as we have them against Como in last night game with things were completely favourable for them, but they have gone down and out of the game and give them first win of this season.

Atlanta having favourable fixtures in early rounds of the Champions League which are surely going to have good positive impact on their performance for the next round, and they can bring good changes as well because after few matches surely things will be developed, and they will be able to have good improvement into their performance which will give them good booster right now any prediction about their future is surely not going to be correct.

They are actually one of good teams in Serie A because if you look at their endings in latest seasons, you will see that they usually completed these seasons in top of Serie A from top 4 to top 6. Last season, they won a first tile in Europe in their club history, the UEFA Europa League title. They won the title by beating a most impressive club in Europe last season, Leverkusen, and they beat that opponent with a big result, 3 - 0.

It's enough to call Atalanta as one of best teams in Serie A, not in the league history, but in recent seasons. They don't have good start in this season but they can improve their performances and rank as the season has many match days, 33 more.

We have to accept the fact that Barcelona did not perform well in the first match of the Champions League and that is why they lost. If Barcelona could have played their normal game in this match, they would not have been defeated in this match. Barcelona may have forgotten the last time they did well in the Champions League. Other teams try to do well in the Champions League or Europa League tournaments but we haven't seen anything like that in Barcelona for a few seasons. I understand that they have financial problems, but it cannot be said that they do not have good quality players in their club. With the players that are there if this player can be planned properly then I think good things can be done with this team.

It was a different kind of brilliance below the regular since this season that was exhibited by Barcelona in the champions League and that wasn't enough to give them a decent start, anyways they could get better after it was kickoff so many games are still ahead with which they can make up for the first time mess. The issue of quality players isn't something I think is of a top credence in Barcelona now as they have good players who in their domestic league is giving excellent results and need only some extra efforts to do better in the champions League.

Every team in the Champions League has just started their journey, so every team still has many opportunities, but Barcelona should not be compared with other teams. Barcelona should have won against the team they lost against. Maybe I will skip the discussion about the match that has gone but there is no guarantee that Barcelona will not repeat this performance in their future matches. Barcelona will have to change tactics. La Liga and Champions League tournaments are not the same, the opponents here are different strengths, so Barcelona has to play with different strategies for different tournaments. If Barcelona can plan and play according to the plan before each match, they can do well.

Personally, I don't expect to see a good performance from Barcelona in the Champions League because Barcelona recently had many financial issues and they couldn't have a strong team while the results they get are mostly because of their coach and because of using younger talents while Barcelona can never race with this young player in the tournaments like the Champions League because they don't have the enough experience for it as they have in the other teams like Manchester City.

Not all clubs want to experience that, but seeing Barcelona's enthusiasm to fix their financial problems in the last few seasons has started to improve even though at this time they rely on young players and even that is considered successful this season, after no longer handled by Xavi Barcelona really rose slowly whether or not Barcelona can compete in the Champions League let time answer all that because no one will know what Barcelona will be like in the future when facing tough European teams.

[lixer]

I actually think the opposite of what you are trying to say because I mean haven't you seen Barcelona play of recent, I mean they have improved their gameplay alot and for now the goals are actually coming in and that's the good part although they lost to Monaco which was a surprise to me which I know the red card also had some impact to it.

Barcelona managed to have good start of this season with things are surely going good and chances were high for them to stay at the top, but suddenly they lost their goalkeeper ter Stegen for the rest of the season as injury is going to have long time and things are surely now on wrong side for them because they were right on target and having good performance even lost against Monaco were criticized but still things were going good and having 6 wins from 6 La Liga games were also impressive for them.

This injury is surely going to have huge impact with they are looking for replacement which is surely coming soon but still this is going to be not good for them and their season they are having plenty of time for giving best in remaining fixtures, and they can bounce back from this defeat as well which could be give them good chance for going into next round.

[hyudien]

Arsenal has two strikers available, Havertz and Gabriel. They don't mind adding a new striker. They think those two names are enough to help them this season. They are focusing on other positions, not the striker position. They scored a lot last season. It's probably their reason to feel confident enough with their available strikers. And they decided not to sign a new striker.

I also think that it's not a problem for Arsenal when they don't recruit a new striker, although it wouldn't be wrong if Arsenal wanted to recruit another new striker to replace one of them if they get injured during the season. However, the reason you said could also be very logical because Arsenal also thinks more about other more important lines such as the midfield and defense so that the opposing team will not easily break into their goal when competing in any competition.

Havertz and Gabriel alone are not enough to go through a tough season in the Champions League or the Premier League. These two attackers do not have high ambitions in scoring goals, plus so far they are not one of the attackers who are included in the goal-hungry category. The Gunners need a new breakthrough in sharpening their attacks on the front line. Havertz is the type of player who waits more to get a ball pass. Unfortunately, Arteta is not interested in having an ambitious attacker on his front line. Meanwhile, if you look at the giant European teams, they almost have them in order to have a sharp spearhead. Arsenal players are like a king who has great soldiers but does not have a commander in carrying out attacks, only relying on the natural abilities of his soldiers.

Barcelona starting the league very fantastic and is still undefeated , but the impressive performance in the league was not accompanied by good results in the Champions League earlier this season, the defeat to Monaco was one of the big losses for Hansi Flick in the Champions League considering that Monaco is actually one of the weak teams that they should be able to beat,   But indeed Monaco who appeared spartan in the match were able to take advantage of the advantage in the number of players to be able to get the first 3 points of the Champions League this season, I think maybe Barcelona was quite unlucky in their first match of the season, because seeing their next opponents who are relatively weaker (except Munich and Dortmund) clearly gives greater hope for Barcelona to qualify at least to the round of 16 playoff,  Indeed, Barcelona currently has losing Ter Stegen as main goalkepper , but if Barcelona manages to lock in a deal with Szczesny in the near future then it is clear that Barcelona's weakness in the goalkeeper sector has been resolved.

Except for a sense of incompetence at any point, i don't think Arsenal will be needing to add more strikers to their team as that which they have got already is really doing well and supposed to be considered enough until the end of the season probably when any of them eventually wants to move then they can be replaced by scouting for a new replacement for them. Gabriel have been of a very good brilliance that i consider him doing well as well as Havertz so probably till next season Arsenal may not be needing any new strikes. The midfield should be their point of focus and attention now.

Arsenal should consider recruiting a striker so that they don't lose another opportunity this season. Their only weakness is the front line so that they can continue to compete with Man City and Liverpool.

If we talk about Osimhen, it seems like Arsenal was serious at that time. Because, Fabrizio Romano had reported that Arsenal had submitted a proposal to Napoli. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, Osimhen's agent had held a meeting with Arsenal. Unfortunately, Napoli insisted on the clause they wanted. Maybe Arteta and Edu will consider recruiting a pure striker in the winter transfer market. Talking about Arsenal in the Champions League, I only hope they can qualify from the group stage, at least Arteta's seriousness is proven by bringing Arsenal from phase to phase as far as they can. In the Domestic League, Arsenal still has a chance to win the trophy, especially in the match against City, they were able to produce a draw. Next, Arsenal's opponent is Paris Saint-Germain. It seems like it will be an exciting match and worth waiting for.

However, the reason you said could also be very logical because Arsenal also thinks more about other more important lines such as the midfield and defense so that the opposing team will not easily break into their goal when competing in any competition.

Arsenal have a good attack, but they are having problems in defense this season. For example, in the Premier League, they made 5 games and conceded 7 goals. That is not good. Because usually the teams that become champions are because they had a good attack but also an excellent defense. In the European Champions League, Arsenal's attack was inefficient. When they played against Atalanta, they failed to score a goal. Note that Atalanta is not doing well in Serie A. They were an opponent that Arsenal could have beaten. Arsenal's next game:

Arsenal - PSG

This will be a very difficult game for Arsenal. The chances of them losing are high. So, in my opinion, Arsenal will not do well in the European Champions League. It seems to me that they have not managed to be the type of team that aims to win European competitions.

[khiholangkang]

If considered wisely, it is true that Atalanta with its potential is quite strong in the Champions League, even though many people have one eye on Atalanta but they really prove themselves quite well and the results they show are their true strength, without denying themselves that Atalanta in the Europa final really conquered the team that many people praised there, then what exactly do they see about Atalanta? Whether it's the lack of popularity or the lack of star players that make people think that way, the match against Arsenal showed that they can keep up with the top teams in the Premier League.

[junder]

Nketiah scored 5 goals in 27 games last year. He wasn't a very productive forward. Crystal didn't start the league very well this year either. Arsenal actually lacks a forward like Haaland. The last time they didn't have a forward was probably during the Thierry Henry era. They must be an unlucky team because they've been feeling this lack for a long time. I think they need a forward like Haaland. Haaland scored 100 goals in 105 games for City. A statistic that could make them champions on its own.

Every player in the front line must have the instinct to score more goals because their job is to be able to finish well when there is a pass from their own team mates. While Arsenal's front line players are not like that although I also don't think they are bad because for this season Arsenal is still quite good in the domestic league and also in the Champions League. So they only need a few new adjustments to be able to increase their strength in the front line even though they don't have players like Haaland who always get more support from their teammates.

That's a little bit of Arsenal's shortcomings, not having a pure striker like Haaland who is able to maximize opportunities to become goals, Arteta just needs a little polish to strengthen his team, the puzzle must be found immediately to make Arsenal stronger. Even so, I don't doubt the strength of the Gunners at this time, they are still a threat to other clubs, especially the players show their compactness in creating opportunities and one more thing, opponents must be aware of Arsenal's dead balls, they often create goals from corner kicks.
I hope Arteta can take Arsenal further in the UCL this season.

Whether it's the lack of popularity or the lack of star players that make people think that way, the match against Arsenal showed that they can keep up with the top teams in the Premier League.

Indeed, Atalanta in the UEFA League cannot be underestimated at all, because although Atalanta is an unstable team in Serie A, but Atalanta always has a chance to make a surprise  in the UEFA League. Moreover, for the next few matches  at least Atalanta get opponents that are not too difficult like Shakhtar Donetsk, Celtic, Stuttgart, Young Boys although indeed, I also do not underestimate these teams. But, because we consider Atalanta who have good success when playing against seeded teams, then when Atalanta play against non-seeded teams it can be a great chance for Atalanta to win.

However, I also believe that teams like Celtic and Stuttgart also have a good chance of being able to beat Atalanta, and any result is at least still possible. Thus, at least Atalanta still has a chance to qualify for the last 16 but for me, Atalanta will not be able to advance further like to the semifinals, it seems that to get to that round Atalanta is still  not strong enough.

There is no doubt that Atalanta is good in European competitions but I doubt if such will happen this season in UCL because this is not Europa that have more of weak teams compared to UCL. Atalanta is still on a poor form because they lost their domestic match during the weekend and I don't think any magic can be performed in UCL because it is survival of the fittest.

Last season that Atalanta was able to win Europa go and check out their performance, they were in form compared to this season and they are also playing a bigger league and not the same as last season. It is possible for them to qualify to thw round of 16 if the clubs in their group are weak but they will not survive the round of 16 because they will meet a strong team.

Arsenal put up a great performance against Manchester City. Of course, it would be logical for them to want to replace injured players, but Arsenal seem to be fully prepared at the moment. They have not been defeated in the league yet and drew with a goal they conceded in the last minutes against Manchester City. They were going to beat Manchester City. This shows us how well they played. Arsenal is a dangerous team this year. They will continue to be competitive in the Premier League until the end of the year. They can also be one of the teams close to the final in the Champions League, as long as things go well. Their squad is suitable for this.
