UEFA Champions League 2026/27 Season

No one is planning on selling Vini because he is among the best in Real Madrid. Perez said that these three players Mbappe, Vinicius and Bellingham is going nowhere, because they're players that any club will love to have in their team. So, no one should assume selling Vini because he's irreplaceable. Vini was the one who shouldered the responsibilities of winning UCL last two seasons for Real Madrid.

Imo, I think this matter is a bit complicated than what the public actually thinks. When a player is a bit reluctant to renew his contract, and an offer has been presented a long time ago, then it's obvious that he's not ready to settle for that. And the crazy thing is that Real Madrid are not willing to go beyond what they've already dropped on the table, so it's either Vini to accepts or decline.

No doubt, the player wants to keep playing for the Club, and the Club would also like to keep him, but settling for a contract that will keep both parties happy is actually the problem at the moment. Let's not forget that has just one more year left in his contract. And for a player that is as important as Vini, do you think any club will take the risk of waiting till the last year in order to renew his contract?. Regardless, I think they will still compete in the UCL next season. The Club needs to just put everything in order before the start of the UCL season, so they don't have a rough and confusing start.

Real Madrid need Olise in the squad and if they get the player to the team they will be the best in the laliga competition and Madrid will go far in all the competition they are into. Bayern Munich knows what olise can contribute to the team and that is the reason why they don’t want to lose it, and if Madrid get the opportunity to get olise for them next season Madrid will be a strong team again and they can come back to there best prime. Let just see how the season will goes next months because I get the believe that they can get olise with the way Perez is pushing in the negotiations.

I remember before Mbappe join Madrid, many said this same thing, that they are going to be the best team in La Liga and even the champions league, but it has been two seasons and we know what the fate of Madrid has been, i will take exceptions that since we have a better coach now, it may be different, but if we are to go by the records of last two season, we will not be saying Olise will be the solution to Madrid.

I hope for Madrid that they succeed at this Olise deal and let us see what will become of them having Olise and a coach as Mourinho.

And I don't even consider it wise to sell these three players you mentioned, because if they do who will be forcing the attack in the front? So this is not something they should even think twice of doing because it will be a very big mistake they will ever make and they can not get players that will be as good as them in seasons to come. I think all these players needs now is coming to an understanding and working together to achieve a common goal instead of fighting and disrespecting each other.

Real Madrid problem isn't their attackers but midfield and defense. This was why you see that Mourinho sharply signed Cucurella, Dumfries and Bernardo Sylva which I believe will be a big impact on the team performance next season. This is why I think, it's useless for anyone to think that One of Real Madrid main attackers should be sold.

Real Madrid has already started their important work, since a good coach has been given the responsibility to completely organize their team, the team will definitely come back stronger. If a player like Michael Olise comes to the team, the team will definitely become better, and since there are still good players in the team, they will use them in the right places. Mourinho will definitely put the team in a good position with his own strategy, he is an experienced player and has enough knowledge and strategy. Moreover, since Mourinho was in charge of the Real Madrid team and he is a successful coach, he will put the Real Madrid team in a very good position this season. I think the Real Madrid team will become stronger this season and they will play with their best performance in La Liga and the Champions League and will be worthy of becoming champions.

Even if Real Madrid are unable to sign Oliseh, Real Madrid will still be in a strong position. Many believe that the chances of Oliseh joining Real Madrid are very low. However, it is expected that Mourinho's skills and experience will be able to improve Real Madrid a lot. But if Mourinho is not able to solve the problem of communication between the players or if he does not take action in this regard, then we may not see an improvement in Real Madrid's position. It is being heard from many places that the lack of good relations between themselves is responsible for Real Madrid's failure to win trophies.

But if Bayern munich to sell hime out to Real Madrid seriously things would be better than before for Real Madrid. Olise is one of the most relevant player that has great talent in both assist and creation of chances. Bayern Munich might need to keep him first for now because of his previous performances in the 1026 FIFA world cup matches.

Also, if probably the Real Madrid get an opportunity to signed him, I can imagine how Jim and Mbappe would move Real Madrid to a great higher level in the next season. So signing Olise would definitely be a great advantages for Real Madrid. Moreover Real Madrid must have seen his great experiences shown in just concluded FIFA world cup tournament, I just hope thier interest would be picked/ considered.

Real Madrid don’t need Olise they already have good players in Real Madrid and if they can use them very well, they don’t need another attacking player anymore, the reason why Real Madrid has not been doing very well. Is not because of the players. The reason why Real Madrid has not been doing very well is because of the coach but right now they have signed a very good coach who has done a lot of great things Real Madrid before and I believe since he came back, his going to do more great things for the Madrid, the new coach is someone that will be respected by the players and they will follow his instructions, from this season you will see that Real Madrid we do very well they don’t need to sign Olise because they already have wonderful attacking players.

Is there anyone here who has started paying attention to the competition in the qualifying round?

There are several games taking place today (in my time zone). From all the upcoming games, the one that interests me is the match between Iberia & Slovan Bratislava. I'm confident that even though Slovan Bratislava is playing away, they will still win the match.



What about you broski, did you also place bets on any of today's four matches?

Just wanted to provide an update on the Champions League qualifier I placed a bet on, Slovan Bratislava is currently leading by two goals in the first half. I was surprised to find that people in this thread are focusing solely on the big teams & overlooking the qualification process. I finally realized that not everyone here truly wants to have a high-quality discussion about the competition.

Olise is a very good player that every team may wish to have in their squad, based on his great performances last season and even in this World Cup. However, I can't say that if Real Madrid are able to sign Olise, they will become the best team in La Liga because having Olise will not solve all their problems.From my observation, Real Madrid still need a great defensive midfielder and some strong defenders. I'm not that satisfied with Real Madrid's defensive line. They are not that bad, but seriously, I don't think those players are good enough. In fact, even if they are good, Real Madrid still need strong defenders to provide backup in case any of the current defenders get injured.So, I don't think that Olise is Real Madrid's main problem at the moment. However, if they sign Olise, he will definitely add value to the team.

As the World Cup demonstrated, the duo of Kylian Mbappe and Michael Olise is outstanding. If Olise moves to Real Madrid, it could strengthen the team significantly, and the player himself has expressed a strong desire to join the Madrid club. However, Bayern Munich's stance on their key attacker remains firm—they have no intention of selling him. So, Mbappe will likely be left without his chief playmaker from the national team.

There are still chances for Manchester city to still dominate premier League even without pep Gaurdiola. Manchester city still has a great squad that if Enzo can be able to use them well , definitely they will still contend for the premier League trophy with Arsenal. Although with Pep Guardiola not been Manchester city I can't say with all certainty that the club will be a rival to Arsenal with Areteta still there as the manager because I can't say much about Enzo Maresca.

I think this Champions League will also be won by an English team, they are becoming far too dominant over everyone else with all the money they have. Perhaps Barcelona and Real Madrid will give them a run for their money, but otherwise they’ll win it. I don’t know whether it’ll be Manchester City, Manchester United or Arsenal, but the fact remains that they can spend hundreds of millions of pounds in every transfer window without any major problems.

We can't predict the winner of Next Season UCL we need to wait to start the tournament. Every team are preparing themselves to try hard to win the next season UCL and doing transfers to strengthen the squad not only Premier league team. We can see Barcelona and madrid are already confirmed alot of players before the transfer window even started.  So they all are prepared for UCL but the team who control the pressure and didn't do any mistakes that team can win the UCL you need to physically strong and also mentally strong .

Shamrock Rovers’ second-round opponent is Ararat Armenia. Ararat Armenia had eliminated Riga FC to advance to the next round. Shamrock Rovers, meanwhile, put on a show in their home match against their opponent and managed to advance to the next round. In this matchup, Armenia is obviously the favorite, but I think Shamrock Rovers will be the ones to advance. If Shamrock Rovers manage to draw in this match, they will win at home and advance to the next round.

Riga FC football team played very well in this match because they did 3 goals in this match and opponent team did 2 goals in this match. The match was two sided because both teams played very well in this match and they gave their best to win this match and in the start of the match, Siqueira was a person who did first goal of the match and he did this goal at 14 minutes and he gave good start to his team and after that goal , Ankrah did second goal of the match and he did this goal at 23  minutes and match was looking impressive but after that opponent team players got opportunity and they did back to back 3 goals in this match and Shaghoyan was a person who did goal for the team at 46 minutes and after that goal , another player did goal in this match. Lime did second last goal of the match and Score of both teams was equal in this match .Ramires did last goal of the match and he did this goal at 94 minutes and that goal was at penalty.

And also there defense there defense have become weak and they need to do better that what they are doing currently and even if we have high expectations for real Madrid at least we should know that is not Everytime that we are going to be getting the same results from a particular club and another thing is that the way there players were acting they were acting very unserious and that is why they are doing what they are doing and I don't maybe because they have won a lot of trophies in the past and that is why they are not that interested also because we know Madrid to always be one of the competitors in the champions league and look at what they have turned there self into now.

Sabah has been drawn against KuPS Kuopio. Frankly, I think it’s hard to predict who will advance in this matchup, but Sabah is considered the favorite. Sabah is a team with the potential to win at home, but the Finnish side, KuPS, is also a good team in my opinion. Even if Sabah wins this match, I think they’ll lose on the road. It looks like this will be a matchup where the team that scores more goals advances. I see KuPS as having a slight edge.

Sabah won their first leg of Champions league Qualifications round 2 by 1-0 against kups. First half started both teams tried to get an early goal and in the added minutes of the first half Sabah's player Simic scored a goal 45+1 and gave them a lead. First half ended 1-0 ro Sabah fk. The second half started Sabah tried to keep possession and no goal was scored in the second half. The match ended 1-0 to Sabah. Now Sabah will go on to the 2nd leg with confidence and one goal advantage anything can happen in the 2nd leg. For keeping the dream alive for the Champions league both teams have to give their 100 percent to make sure they qualify for next round.

But leaving this aside I think that Olise is not worth 200 million euros. He is great at giving assists, but his qualities to finish attacks are some of the worst if he is out of shape and that's a big downside in my eyes. Even if an outstanding player has a bad day or a bad month but still plays all the time, some goals must be scored regardless. That is why they are worth what is being paid for them.

Well, let's be honest, I think Olise would be a great acquisition for Real Madrid. If she arrives, it would be the best thing in the world. Now, if she stays at Bayern, that's fine too. I think players who come to Real Madrid should come because they want to play, because they desire it, and because they truly feel like Madridistas. If that's the case, she'd leave Bayern quickly; otherwise, it's better that she stays at Bayern.

Why are you saying all the time that Olise is a woman? When you wrote "she" the first time I thought you made a typo, but you are calling Michael Olise a woman from the first sentence to the last. This is weird.

It is not up to Olise whether he can leave Bayern or not. You think he can quickly leave the club only because he wants to, but I am sure you have heard about a piece of paper called "contract" in real life. There it is written that Olise goes nowhere unless Bayern allows him to go to Real Madrid. It will all be about the financial suffering that Real Madrid is willing to accept because no matter what, Bayern will make this as expensive as they can.

Fenerbahçe won tonight, but in my opinion, a 1–0 victory isn't a good result against such a weak opponent.
They dominated the match for the full 90 minutes but couldn't score a second goal. It was the kind of game that should have ended with a 3–0 or 4–0 scoreline, but they struggled badly in front of goal.
I expected Fenerbahçe to put the tie beyond doubt in this first leg. Instead, they'll head into next week's match with some uncertainty, because a 1–0 lead doesn't guarantee anything.
Hopefully, they'll earn a comfortable win next week and secure their place in the next round.

One of the biggest challenges of Real Madrid getting this deal done is that Bayern Munich are not a selling club like the other small clubs in the Bundesliga or in other leagues. Real Madrid cannot use money to intimidate this Bayern Munich side, i would have said that it will be an easy transfer if at all the player is actually just having few years left in his contract for example like a year or two and has indicated that he wants the move then instead of losing the player the club would then be forced to sell but right now he is not actually having those years left, he currently has like three years left if I am correct.

Another route Real Madrid would have wanted to take is the buying off of his release clause but currently his contract doesn’t have a release clause that they can trigger which means for the move to happen it will be Bayern much actually setting the price and we all know they would request and outrageous amount if Real Madrid continues to mount pressure, best for now is for Real Madrid to simply walk way from the deal

Real Madrid need Michael Olise but after his great performance in the 2026 FIFA World Cup I think Bayern Munich might not want to sell him because he is a great player for the upcoming German league club. Honestly if Real Madrid can add this French player to their squad then I think they will go far in the upcoming La Liga and Champions League and will be able to snatch some trophies. However, we can see that Madrid manager is pressuring the German club to add this player to their team because if they can add Michael Olise to the team then this team will become strong again in La Liga and will be able to return to their best form in the upcoming season.

The World Cup didn't increase his value. He had dozens of chances and didn't score one goal. I know that he broke the record for the number of assists he served, but scoring no goals for a player like him is rather decreasing his value than increasing his value.

Bayern Munich never considered selling him and this has nothing to do with the World Cup. The rumor about Olise and Real Madrid was going around for quite some time now and as far as I know, the Bayern Munich officials made clear that he is not for sale regardless of what Real Madrid is willing to pay. 

Frankly I think every player can be bought if the offer is good enough, but Real Madrid probably has limits. I don't know where those limits are, but if Olise goes to Real Madrid, I think we will soon find out who the new most expensive player is.

Do you think Bayern Munich needed to see Micheal Olise's performance in the world cup before they can recognize that he is a player that they desperately need.
Olise since joining Bayern Munich has proved himself consistently and the Bayern Munich hierarchy knows how important he is, for me I think based on the fact that he did not score a goal in the world cup he actually had a decline from what we have come to expect from him based on his performances in the Bayern Munich jersey.
But I won't right off Real Madrid, they have a way of getting players everyone thought it would be impossible to get.

[snipie]

Fenerbahçe won tonight, but in my opinion, a 1–0 victory isn't a good result against such a weak opponent.

The game took place in Istanbul and Fenerbahce was indeed expected to win it by many goals.
Fenerbahce is the second team in Turkish league which is superior to the Polish league. In addition, Fenerbahce consolidated its squad. Talisca scored the only goal here and Fenerbahce should avoid to be kicked from the competition when they will face away Gornik Zabrze.
By the way, even Dinamo Zagreb result wasn't good. They got only a draw away. Shamrock Rovers lost against the Armenian team.. Otherwise the other results were expected.
