UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

You can't be serious 

Endrick was a striker to Real Madrid but not a good replacement for Mbape, not even a reserved player. I will pick Rodrigo to play Mbape position than for Endrick to be the second guy. Although, the guy is a potential, other players that are doing well today like Vinicious all had heir place in Real Madrid, he would have been better but there is no time for such display of show off and it's better off for him to go for loan than to remain unused in Real Madrid.

There is no any way Real Madrid us getting out of Manchester City claws though, there is something they do call luck but I mean just because you played and win a jack pot one time doesn't mean it will keep happening all the time. There is no way Real Madrid will beat Manchester City in this time of the day even if they had a rough sketch in their domestic league. It's not possible and at the serious scenario they can't win the League, this is sad truth we all must accept.

Maybe you are missing something. Rodrigo has played for Real Madrid primarily as a right-winger. Yes, he is versatile, but this might be his best position. While Endrick has been played as a centre forward, making him a better replacement for Mbappe.

Manchester City is not in perfect form. This season Pep Guardiola's side have been inconsistent, losing or drawing games that they were the favorites.

This is a 3-leg multi I'm thinking of betting on for Tuesday. Total odds: 3.71

Tottenham are likely to relegate in the Premier League but things have been good for them in this tournament. However their domestic league should be their main focus when it comes to player choices.

I think Atletico Madrid would beat them by benefiting from playing home as well. Bayern Munich should also be able to win against Atalanta in the first leg already. I didn't want to trust Barcelona directly but I guess they would draw at worst.

Manchester city are not in their best form. But if we compare them with the current situation of Real madrid, then Manchester city must be ahead. Real madrid got a win against celta vigo after defeats against Oosasuna and getafe. But their performance was not satisfactory. More importantly, Bellingham and Mbappe will not be in the squad against Manchester City. Anyway , these two are the most important players in Madrid's squad. Mbappe is the top scorer in the champions league. Not having Mbappe in the squad is a big loss for Madrid. And this is why Manchester City is considered the favorite.

Bayern Munich should also be able to win against Atalanta in the first leg already. I didn't want to trust Barcelona directly but I guess they would draw at worst.  

It looks like we’re thinking the same thing. Atalanta probably won’t be an equal opponent for Munich. That’s not to doubt Atalanta, but overall Bayern’s squad is just much better and full of high quality, talented players. So I also believe Munich will still win even if they play away

And as for Barcelona, of course we can’t immediately be sure about the result because it’s an away game for them. On the other hand, teams from the EPL are never easy to underestimate, especially since Newcastle will be playing at home and could have a good chance to hold the game to a draw. Also, some key players seem to be injured, and I haven’t gotten the latest update on whether Lewandowski will miss that match or not.

It seems I would prefer to bet on other options that have lower risk and bet in the second half with a single bet.

[el kaka22]

Real Madrid might be a big team, and surely they are still a good team, not like they are some terrible team, but they are not looking as good as some of the other teams tis season so it is normal that people would expect them to lose.

Even if they somehow get lucky and beat City, which I think they will not be able to do, that still doesn't change the fact that they are going to end up with getting a win over anyone else, City will be a loss for Madrid, but if not, another game will be, they are going to not win the title this season. There is no scenario where they recover and start doing better. On top of that, Mbappe seems like he will probably out for a long time, maybe even whole season, thats not going to be good neither.

If not for the fact that gambling is not even 50% guarantee i would have say this is a very nice prediction and indeed it is a nice prediction but this things are not to be trusted, and despite that is still strongly believe Barcelona is winning this game fluently no stress because this is not really the dangerous Newcastle of last year, and for Atlanta vs Bayern Munich truth be told Atlanta doesn't stand a chance be it home or away Bayern Munich is winning the game and for ATM vs Tottengham it's quite a complicated match Tottengham is not really good in the English premier league but they have been quite amazing in the champions league but in as much i will still give it to ATM.

]Personally, I think Real Madrid problem was sacking Ancelotti without considering if Xabi will meet up to their expectations. I believe that assuming Ancelotti is still their coach, they wouldn't be having an unbalanced performance till this time. It's a norm for injury to ravish a team when they have limited players on the bench. It was Ancelotti that converted Mbappe into a finisher. He understands these players already and knows how to work with them to get the best results.

I don't agree. Sacking Ancelotti was not the wrong decision. His team were playing very badly. In fact, Madrid were playing better under Alonso than they did in Ancelotti's last season. Ancelotti's Madrid couldnt press at all. Whenever they lost the ball, they allowed the opponent so much time on the ball. It wasn't so under Alonso, even though it wasn't very effective. I don't believe Ancelotti would have changed anything if he had stayed.

Mbappe has always been a finisher since his Monaco days. He has never needed converting. The person Ancelotti turned into something else was Vinicius. Before Ancelotti, Vini's end product was awful, but Ancelotti turned him around.

Under Ancelotti Madrid played the way they're playing under Arbeloa. They rely greatly on individual quality. The difference is Ancelotti was more experienced and command more respect and desire from the players. I think a few good players and a good coach will solve Madrid'd problem. It's not a big issue to fix. The problem is, they too do not have all the money in the world to do it because of la liga restrictions.

[Dreadboost]

The club wouldn't have let Endrick leave on loan to Lyon. That young lad would have been a good option since Mbappe is injured. Now he is doing just fine in the French League and I know that Real Madrid will want him to return at the end of the season.

In the case of Gonzalo Garcia, he has not been given enough playing time to showcase his potentials. The club seems to be relying solely on Mbappe that other players don't have the time to play. Gonzalo needs more time to improve.

Well I do agree with you about endrick,
I don't think he is useful presently in real Madrid, and him staying in the bench all matches will only kill his potential bit by bit, so I do think him going on a loan will make him better since he will be performing, and will also get more experience as well.

But on the other hand you say that there is no way real Madrid will get a win to Manchester city is actually not a wise thing to say in my point of view, Real Madrid is also a strong club and they are good as well,what they do lack is consistency, Manchester city too lack consistency as well,

This is a mach that will be pretty hard to predict a winner, the both teams are good, and the both teams are also not in form as well so we await the results.

There are only 2 days left to start action in the CL again!

I can't wait for our game vs Liverpool home... We are also having a really tight schedule just as Liverpool have been through. They are used to having such a tight calendar more than us surely though.

I hope we don't mess up in the 1st leg. Once again we have a chance to win I believe with the help of a great atmosphere and of course a decent performance also.

Are you sure you know the condition of the team at that moment. What was the cause of Real Madrid poor performance sinvelast season. Injury made the club looked like shit and Real Madrid turned their eyes away from the cause of the team poor performance and made the wrong decision. Why are you saying that Alonso improved thr team performance and got good results than Ancelotti. It means that you are new to football. Did you know how many Laliga titles and UCL trophies that Ancelotti got for Real Madrid. Don't downgrade the old man with the highest experience for a baby coach.

Real Madrid is still finding it difficult to be consistency in winning their games in this champion league, because they have some little challenge in the defense level, which is what is making the club not to display what people want from Real Madrid. Since Manchester city is well organized than Real Madrid in this season, I don't think Real Madrid will reach the level they reached last season before they where lock out from the tournament.

If Mbappa is out for a while you think the remaining players can move the Real Madrid to reach final, because the remaining clubs in this champion league tournament are Strong clubs that are in a good position in their tournament trying to show their strength in this champion by winning the trophy. There is nothing that will make me bet for the favour of Real Madrid, because I know Manchester city will not allow them to beat them for any game in this season.

Real Madrid’s problems are escalating every day, and to me, I don’t think they will find a better solution this season anymore. Just take a look at their performances, they don’t seem to be the Real Madrid that we all knew. They are just playing something different. Still, injuries are affecting them, and they lack coordination, which Arbeloa can’t manage. To me, I will even say Xavi was better than him.

You're right, you can't defend the indefensible. They won the last match, and it was a hard-fought one. I think the players need a lot more desire they must have a lot of problems in the locker room. The situation must be difficult. Now Arbeloa is relying on the youth academy because they're easier to manage than the professionals. He's not doing badly, but I don't think it's the time to experiment. There are a lot of injuries, but even so, if you're playing for Real Madrid, you have to leave everything on the pitch, giving it your all.

I don’t know what gave Arbeloa that hope that the academy players will be able to give him what they need in Real Madrid currently, because this is just a try and error strategy, as no one is sure that it will definitely work. We know that youth players are easy to control, but Real Madrid need solutions, not experiments. And if the experiment doesn’t work, it will affect them even more.

All I will say is that let’s watch and see what will happen as the outcome of Arbeloa’s decision.

Real Madrid are currently in a position that they would need to try out anything possible for the chemistry to work and looking at the injury sustained in that club anything is possible and experimenting and hoping it works is just the move remaining for the manager because aside from that he doesn't have much options because even when the players are complete they still struggle to win.

Their match is one that's quite intriguing to me, I don't know if Galatasaray can return to their impressive form, as in their last meeting, or if Liverpool will exact revenge. But one thing's for sure, this match won't be easy, after checking the betting market, Liverpool odds are quite high at 1.84, compared to the previous meeting odds of 1.61 (as far as I can remember), indicating that the bookmakers aren't underestimating Galatasaray at all.

All of that is already in the past and I also think there is no comparison for it, and now the most important thing is that we have to look at the current condition of the Real Madrid team, and Arbeloa is a problem for everyone because since Arbeloa's arrival it seems he has not been able to improve the team's performance, even getting worse, so I think Real Madrid's management no longer needs to look back and they now have to focus on moving forward in developing the team, and if we look at the current condition, indeed, there is quite a lot that needs to be fixed.

I hope the actual team that you are speaking of, and you are in support of, to face Liverpool in the Champions League match is Galatasaray. Galatasaray and Liverpool haven't had so many meetings. In the first meeting they had in the Champions League last year, Galatasaray won at home by 1-0 against Liverpool, and this is Liverpool's home, to make sure they win against Galatasaray in the second leg. Let's see how the match will turn out anyway, because both teams will be in full preparation for the match

Real Madrid are currently in a position that they would need to try out anything possible for the chemistry to work and looking at the injury sustained in that club anything is possible and experimenting and hoping it works is just the move remaining for the manager because aside from that he doesn't have much options because even when the players are complete they still struggle to win.

Real Madrid have played 10 matches in this year's champions league so far. They have managed to score 24 goals in 10 matches. The interesting thing is that Mbappe has managed to score 13 goals and one assist in 8 matches. If he had played 10 matches, he could have scored 15+ goals. Even then, Mbappe has scored more than half  of Madrid's total goals. This shows how much Madrid depends on Mbappe.

So, it is naturally challenging to face a giant team like Manchester city without such an important player. City boss guardiola has already identified the weaknesses of Madrid's defense  and has also prepared his own match strategy. So it will be very difficult for arbeloa to resist City at the Bernabeu. I do not expect Madrid to win at all. City's chances of winning  are high. If Madrid plays defensively, the match is likely to be drawn.

[Arenga pinnata]

Maybe you are missing something. Rodrigo has played for Real Madrid primarily as a right-winger. Yes, he is versatile, but this might be his best position. While Endrick has been played as a centre forward, making him a better replacement for Mbappe.

Manchester City is not in perfect form. This season Pep Guardiola's side have been inconsistent, losing or drawing games that they were the favorites.

I think both Real Madrid and Manchester City are actually performing at a similar level. neither team is in their best form this season. Both teams often make mistakes in matches that shouldn't be a problem for them in their respective leagues. so I think the outcome of the match between these two teams will be very difficult to predict. Because both teams could play at their best. Or the opposite could happen. however, I believe that the home advantage will be more beneficial for one team. for example, in the first leg, Real Madrid might win, but in the second leg, Manchester City could win in regular time. The number of goals will ultimately decide the outcome.

Almost all the fixtures in this phase of the champions league is very interesting.
The most interesting one to me is; Manchester city vs Real Madrid. I would like like to know how that fixture will go.
Also, Chelsea Vs Psg is  another interesting match and I wouldnt want to miss that fixtures.
For Liverpool Vs Galatasaray, I'll look upto Salah Vs Osimhen, just that Osimhen team mates don't like passing the ball to Osimhen. I don't know why, the coach is supposed to caution the players.
