UEFA Champions League 2026/27 Season

So don't be surprised with it because Arsenal had greater fan base compared to the PSG, but in the end it's the team and coach that meant a lot in the end. An elite squad owned by PSG was winning last season UCL, then they're having a plan to make the third next season.
It proves how money can buy you trophies.

The thing that impresses me the most is that PSG doesn't even normally have the strongest squad in Europe in fact. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have technically better squads than theirs. 

But what's absent in them? Their game isn't as good as PSG's... This has been the same for 2 years. This proves one thing again that you don't actually need to have the best squad in the world to win the CL.

I'm not saying it like PSG have a weak one of course. You know what I mean.

You need the best composition possible and that doesn't mean you need five Ronaldos. That is where PSG is best, quality is well distributed within their team. Although I think that a winger like Chwitscha Kwarazchelia would improve every team. He is a hard worker and he contributes to defense. If I had to choose him or Vinicius, I would go with him. PSG has an outstanding midfield with players like Vitinha.

If you average the quality of all players of all lines on the field and then add them together and further add the quality of the substitutional players, I think PSG is ahead of all teams. It is a bit of an experimental thought, but it could explains the outcomes of the last two seasons.

Base on the star players and strong players Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have a better players than PSG but base on the tactics and playing as a team to win a game PSG have a good squad that is better than Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, PSG have young players that need a coach to guide them on how to win every game and they listen but a team like Real Madrid that have players who see themselves as a star players will find it difficult to do some certain things the coach ask them to do.

If we look at Real Madrid and Bayern Munich players they have a better players than PSG and even with their market value Real Madrid players market value is higher than PSG players and that shows how good to have a team that can follow the coach tactics and win games, if Real Madrid players play like a team they can defeat any team in Champions league, Real Madrid performance was bad last season and they perform well against Bayern Munich that everyone think they will beat Real Madrid easily, Real Madrid should be one team we should never doubt in the Champions League and with the Jose Mourinho back to the team is going to be a big challenge to every opponent Real Madrid will play against.

From your comment, it’s obvious you’re not an Arsenal supporter so why are so bothered about it. Let the fans celebrate their players and their victories how they like, you can talk about your own team.

Neither I'm  I a PSG fan but I've already mentioned it earlier  that  for the particular  game , I supported Arsenal and I don't  still have any problem with them really losing it. I'm  just saying the fact that not every fans will really just take that miss to be normal which it is in the first place, saying " we " feels weird but you are right, it's  none of my business.

 It quite obvious the fclub I belong , I should be focused on why we didn't even made it to the semis 

[Jaycoinz]

If anyone is to be blamed it have to be Mikel Arteta for delaying the subtituion. But Artea won the league for Arsenal after 22 years. So far no one has the right to insult him or say vague words about him. However, if only he had subbed off Mosquera after Mosquera had a yellow card. Saka who would have helped him reduced the pressure on that flank also got a yellow card. The pressure was too much so Mosquera committed a foul.

Cristhian Mosquera was under pressure because it was not easy to check Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. But I thought Mikel Arteta pulled him out after he got a yellow card. In my view, Arseanl did very well defensively and was able to hold down PSG. The only mistake was  Mosquera lunging recovery challenge which misseed the ball resulting to that penalrty. I am not blaming anybody in the Arsenal side because they gave their best.

PSG are a good side and the both flanks of their wings are working quiet well and that's why they have won the champions league twice now and to say the truth, I still won't be surprised if they are actually going a way to do it again because as it stands now there are very little team that can meet up to the standard of play and commitment of this PSG side. It would get to a point when PSG style of play would be understood and it will be really hard for them to cope because I don't think they will allow them to dominate for another year again in the competition.

Arsenal will have a big opportunity for next season because if they can maintain the consistency they have shown this season and the strategy that Arteta has taken the team forward, it won't be difficult to achieve great success.

If Arsenal's players maintain their winning mentality, yes, but they need to make some signings, because Arteta has to make Arsenal a consistent team. As they are, they're not bad, but they lack that consistency everyone is looking for, and Arsenal has everything they need to achieve it. But based on their current form, I don't see them doing that well. Yes, they reached the Champions League final, but PSG was superior. Arsenal is missing that something extra, so they have to start running.

[sokani]

Before the last champions league tournament ended in favour of PSG all where confident enough to say it belonged to arsenal because of there consistent performance at the beginning of the tournament but how everything ended against them is what I can't tell till now.

To be frank, I wasn't carried away Arsenal unbeaten run in the champions league. I knew they would lose the final. But, I'll admit that they played well against PSG. They made it difficult for the Parisiens to find the back of the net and if not for Cristhian Mosquera reckless tackle on Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the penalty box, Arsenal would have won in fultime.

but one thing sure is arsenal may end up winning the champions league next season.

It took a club 22 years to play the champions league final and you think they will win it the next season? It's okay.

Yes. Arsenal performance this season has been quite good especially when defending as their defense is very solid. This is why they were able to win the EPL trophy and reach the final. Even in the final they lost with their heads held high on penalties a matter of luck.

As you said, if Arsenal can maintain their performance and maintain their mentality, they can compete again next season and even win trophies. However, they need to bring in new players, especially up front. Currently, Arsenal squad is nearly perfect, with only a weakness in attack, which is less productive in scoring goals.

There are rumors that Mikel Arteta really wants a player like Vini and has asked his team to make a move and try to sign him from Real Madrid. For Arteta, Vini is not just an attacking option but a dream target, perfecting his tactics, which have made Arsenal's front line a nightmare for opposing defenders. Because, if you look at Arteta current tactical approach, a player like Vini will clearly change Arsenal game next season. So, the question is will Real Madrid be willing to let Vini go, or will Arsenal be able to afford him if Madrid asks for a high price?

This is the first time I am hearing of this rumor. I understand there is some friction between Vini and Madrid because of his wages. But I don’t think Vinicius Jr would move to Arsenal, neither do I believe that he is a good fit for the club plus Arsenal cannot afford to pay 400k per week.

I totally understand, it's not by have all stars in your, the question is can you utilize them to give you exactly what you want? I can still remember this same Paris Saint Germain had the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Messi, and Neymar, yet they failed, so it's not always having the best of squad, for example let's keep banter aside, if you take a look at the Real Madrid team and the Barcelona team you will get to understand that even Real Madrid has a better squad than Barcelona but because of poor management they couldn't do nothing, so it's not always by good players sometimes.

The way Real Madrid fans and staffs really like Vinicius I don’t think they can leave him to another team that will be very difficult. And I think Perez as even said it before that mbappe, Vinicius and Bellingham are untouchable in the club so talking about Vinicius going to Arsenal I don’t think that can happen easily but anything can be possible but for now Vinicius jr will probably renew is contract with the club. If Vinicius want to leave Madrid they have start looking for a striker that will replace him but nothing as change in the information.

[SmartCharpa]

I actually already said there were 6 PL teams in the Champions League in the 24/25 season. If you read it carefully I said there were 5 teams this season which is one less than the previous one. 

Besides you are actually wrong about one thing here. There won't be 6 PL teams competing in the CL next time. Bournemouth are going to the EL not CL... You can see it if you Google it quickly.

You’re right, there were six Premier League teams in the Champions League last season, and we will have five Premier League teams in the Champions league last season,m. The Champions League could have secure six spot in the Champions League, but Aston Villa that won the Europa League also finished fourth in the league, it prevented Bournemouth from being able to qualify for the Champions League.

So don't be surprised with it because Arsenal had greater fan base compared to the PSG, but in the end it's the team and coach that meant a lot in the end. An elite squad owned by PSG was winning last season UCL, then they're having a plan to make the third next season.

Arsenal fans were very confident that they would win the Champions League last season. PSG have been more consistent than Arsenal throughout last season, but it was Arsenal gas who believed that they could win the Champions league. PSG was able to win the Champions League last season due to their hard working since last two seasons, everything is possible, they can still win it for the third time next season.

Oh no that’s a big fat lie, PSG have better squad than Real Madrid and there’s also a big squad depth. Oussmane Dembele being the Ballon D’or can be substituted at any time and you wouldn’t even feel his absence same thing goes for Kvicha Kvarashkelia, their team is packed full.

Bayern have a good first eleven but once they start changing players you begin to see the team crumble. PSG is a strong technically gifted team who play as a unit and that’s their Superpower.

PSG are the best team currently in the Europe and any club that face them will surly no that he face a tough team even they get lucky to win but that can’t be a easy thing to do with how PSG are in a good shape they will always do there best and continue wining trophies season by season. PSG have be lucky with a good coach and that is why they we wining trophies every season let see how next season will be and know if psg can do it again and win the champions league and break Real Madrid record next time but I no he won’t be a easy task for psg to achieve the ucl title again for now.

Oh wow! That’s some news and I’ve not heard of it certainly. Vini moving to Arsenal or the premier league, I don’t think that move is going to happen. At most, he would be moving to the Saudis from Real Madrid due to the pay rather than the other way round.

His friction with Real Madrid doesn’t really go above a pay raise for sure and probably, with Mourinho after the Benfica incident but, that’s the much I could see creating any turbulence here.

Arsenal is missing that something extra, so they have to start running.

Arsenal have shown a great challenge and this has given them the chance to make it far in the competition and even reached the final of the champions league. PSG is a very different team entirely and they’ve been playing a more serious game than before since Luis Enrique took over as the head coach. Next season in the champions league is going to be a great one and I think that we will have a more competitive game from them both. For now, PSG remains the superior team to Arsenal, unless we get to see a more tougher and vigorous performance from Arsenal can we say that they will stand a chance against them next season.

but one thing sure is arsenal may end up winning the champions league next season.

It took a club 22 years to play the champions league final and you think they will win it the next season? It's okay.

That has nothing to do with them not winning the champions league next season. If they can reach the finals this season, then they can win the trophy next season. This is something practical and from their performance, they’re really showing that they can do it next season again if they try.

It’s too early to go the Saudi Pro league because of money. Moving to the Saudi means he is no longer interested in winning the Ballon d’Or. According to the rumors, Vini is unhappy with his wages and wants the same wages as Mbappe. I don’t think Mourinho’s comment back then will cause problems for him at Madrid. If he had a history of not being able to work with black players then I’d see reasons why this would be a disaster.

At first I was enjoying how Arsenal made their defense tight for Paris Saint Germain because PSG found it difficult to break through. But immediately PSG got the equaliser goal, the match wasn't tough again because Paris Saint Germain were in the better side, they controlled all the possession in the game. As PSG started dominating Arsenal that is when I realized Arsenal mistakes for defending one goal lead from the early minutes, they should have net two goals first before defending.

This is strange because there are many reasons against giving Vini a promotion. He is an asshole as a person and therefore harms their reputation, he is not as good as Mbappe and he constantly gets into the focus of racism discussions more than any other player and I am sure you would agree there have been other good players of the same skin colour, but just with better character. Let him leave, let him go to wherever he wants. Nobody cares if he is gone because he is replaceable for Real Madrid.

If a guy who came from Brazil some time in his life to make a fortune in Europe still thinks that his current salary is too low, what is wrong in their heads? Maybe other players are worth more? Are better negotiators or more likable? He is already among the top earners in whole Europe. The dude needs some teaching in things like what it means to be blessed, whether you boycott a ballon dÒr gala because you didn't win, whether it is right to call everything racism, and many more things.

I'm not saying it like PSG have a weak one of course. You know what I mean. 

Yes, the point is that PSG doesn't have popular players, because basically, PSG players' popularity is clearly below that of teams like Barcelona or Real Madrid. So that's why PSG clearly seems like just an ordinary team, even though their team already contains extraordinary players in terms of their teamwork. Because basically, that's what I think is most important in a team to be great. Because having famous players won't be a good thing if they can't work together well on the field.

So that's why Madrid or Barcelona are willing to not become champions in the Champions League this season, it's because their teamwork isn't as compact as PSG's players, that's why the two big teams lost to PSG. So,, the point is, PSG is indeed a very great team at the moment, it's just that the popularity of its players is not as flashy as players from other top European teams. So, that's why we shouldn't be fooled by the popularity of the players alone,, because that doesn't determine whether the team they support can become champions in a competition like the Champions League.
