UEFA Champions League 2026/27 Season

[Cityhunter34]

Some people just talk without knowing what they are saying. Every team has its own challenges. For Real Madrid not to have a smooth season last season doesn’t mean they are not a better team, but some people just judge based on what they feel, not what is really happening, which is not how football works. For anyone to say Real Madrid is not a better team, I will say he doesn’t know what he is saying. Because for this coming season, I know many people will be surprised by what Real Madrid will show on the pitch. It’s just a matter of time; everything will come to pass.

I think it's not a new thing anymore because fans are not always the same. They can take a small thing and start condemning a team that is well known as a strong team. To be truthful, Real Madrid didn't do well last season, but that doesn't mean that they will repeat the same performance this season.

So we don't have to conclude early because football doesn't work that way. Real Madrid still hold the record in the Champions League, so I think everything is going to be fine with them next season because nobody can easily predict what will happen next season.

The games being played in the last few days haven't appealed to me because they involve teams I don't know, which is why I haven't been betting. But in 12 days, interesting games will start because they will involve teams I know. For example, Fenerbahce will play against Gornik Zabrze, and Fenerbahce is seen as the favorite, with odds of @1.27, so I'm going to bet on that game. I believe Fenerbahce will win by at least 2 goals. There aren't any more markets for this game yet, only the 1x2 market. I'm waiting for the over goals market and the Asian handicap.

It is certainly not the best period for the Champions League, in fact it is the most boring period.
Then considering that the World Cup is also involved, all eyes are on there in my opinion and no one has any interest in seeing the boring preliminary matches of the Champions League.

Real Madrid is actually the best club in the world, they have the most champions League and they usually have good players that are always ready to play for them, every player usually wants to come to Real Madrid because they are the best in the world, I'm very sure that by next season Real Madrid is going to improve greatly and they are going to contest for the champions League title and if possible they can actually lift it next season, they have a very good coach right now and I don't think anything can stop them from lifting the champions League next season because they also have very good players who are ready to play for the club.

At the moment i really don't think it is the best club in the world, it is true that in the past it has won a very high number of Champions League cups and that it has good players, but this does not mean that it manages to make them play well together and make them be a real team.

Gamblers are focused on the World Cup more indeed. Besides betting on qualification games the Champions League is extra risky to me. Especially in the first round...

Because there are so many teams that I have no idea about and probably the same for so many people. I will wait for a couple of more rounds to start betting on this tournament.

Even the World Cup has been quite unpredictable though, I accept that!

What you said is absolutely true. When we mention Madrid, what comes to mind is the most successful team especially in the UCL, and they're even considered the "kings of the Champions League." So, when a club experiences a decline for two seasons, it's certainly a major problem. Perhaps one season is forgivable but if it lasts two seasons it puts pressure on everyone including the president.

This is also why, during the recent Madrid presidential election, a rival emerged and challenged Perez to run for president, even though Perez ultimately won the presidency. I mean, the turmoil of a club with no titles for two seasons for a team as big as Madrid is certainly problematic. This is also what prompted Perez to undertake a major reform by recruiting Mourinho. So far, four new players have been recruited and there are still potential new players coming. So, it can be concluded that with the changes Madrid is currently making their goal is simply to get back on track becoming a team that every opponent fears.

Really certainly won many cups in the Champions League, a very long history together with Milan in Italy, but times have changed and having a history behind it is not enough to be able to do well.
They have to roll up their sleeves a little bit like Milan have to do.

The team may need more time as new coach José Mourinho has recently taken charge of the team. He will evaluate the players and add new players to the team. He will have to analyze how to use the existing star players such as Mbappe, Vinicius, Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham more effectively. After the start of the season, it will be seen whether his tactics are working properly or if he needs to add more new players to the team.

Real Madrid have already signed several players, mostly to secure the defence. It may not be right to predict right now whether Real Madrid will be able to win trophies in the upcoming season, but the team should perform well under the experienced coach.

You'll see, Real Madrid will recover with the care that Jose Mourinho will be able to give them. He is great at managing emergency situations like the one at Real Madrid.
Surely some player's head will fly off, since he doesn't admit these things.

I don't even have time for Champions League because the world cup is currently, at its peak and needs full concentration. I love watching interesting games in order to enjoy my bet than following up boring games in the Champions League qualifiers. I would have time for the Champions League when the world cup is over.

They are trying to better from the last season. They sign new managers new player so there is no doubt they are not a better team but thr question is where the dressing issue solved with this new players and manger I think it's not because there is some kinda of big star in the dressing room and that everyone want to be the main men for Madrid and that's kinda issue create alot of mess in the team I don't know how the manger mourhino can solve that's. I just think on the superstar can leave the Madrid squad so the issue can solve otherwise it's will be same Madrid as we in the last 2 season.

Real Madrid is not a terrible team, i think you don't understand how strong this team has become, now i honestly see their path much better and their future brighter than how they started last year, now with Mourinho they can really hope to become great.

Real Madrid were great even without José Mourinho 
Obviously, with him on board they’ll certainly have an extra gear, but I wouldn’t be so sure! He’s not the José Mourinho he was 10 years ago and he might end up letting us down.
There are high expectations of him and I hope for his sake that he lives up to them all

Though Jose Mourinho may not be as he used to be in the previous years or season especially because football of then is not the same as now, the football we used to know have really evolved to another thing entirely and I believe he has been upgrading to meet the demands or the expectations that the modern football is all about. Coming to Real Madrid, he may not be able to meet our expectations and may still meet our expectations, to me it's a 50/50 chance and I believe in the side of him meeting our expectations more because I know he has the ability to control his dressing room and also make the players obey his instructions. Though he may want to enforce some things, he still needs the players to support his ideas and play with enthusiasm for the club because we have seen the problem with the team previously with other managers. Jose Mourinho may bring something different to the team this time around and it will affect the team positively.

Absolutely, football is unpredictable and one poor season doesn't erase everything  a team has achieved. Real Madrid so it's too early to conclude people are often too quick to judge , every season is different and a club like Madrid has the quality and experience to come back stronger.
Criticism is part of football but it's better to wait and see how the new season will  look like before making conclusion . Real Madrid have proved so many individuals wrong before . Sometimes fans tend to overreact after a disappointing season.

[martinom]

They have stayed for two seasons without a single trophy and it has become disturbing to them, bringing Mourinho is a means for them to salvage the situation and among the trophies they are hoping to recover soon is the champions league, clearly,  they are looking to have the champions league along side the LaLiga, these are two major trophies we hope mourinho help them achieve.
The dressing room too, has not been in very good shape before now and they are trusting mourinho to get that fixed, he is known to be disciplined enough to get that done, all expectations are on him to see the rebirth of Madrid in the new season.

I believe that Mourinho will help them win the next matches, this is what I believe will happen, he is certainly a very ambitious coach, and I don't think there is the possibility of finding stronger players than them, today they are truly a very strong team who make the difference

[bastisisca]

Real Madrid is one of the biggest teams out there, there were not their best last season but that doesn't mean they won't be able to do better, they simply have to play better and with someone like Mourinho in charge I'm sure they will.

They certainly know they have some problems and they chose Mourinho to fix them.
As a great team they tried to find less drastic solutions but since the problem didn't resolve itself (who knows why) they decided to tackle the situation head on.

I'm quite convinced Real Madrid might surprise us this season, because I'm seeing them to be a great contender for the UEFA Champions League come next season, I have been hearing many football fans saying that Kylian Mbappe will not win the UEFA Champions League title with this Real Madrid team that he's a bad luck when it comes to UEFA Champions League, but I'll only laugh because I'm very much certain Kylian Mbappe is winning that trophy with this Real Madrid team because you never can predict Real Madrid when it comes to the UEFA Champions League issue, I just believe that their reason of them not winning it all this while is because of their differences in the team.

[M47AK16]

When you mention Real Madrid, success and quality come to mind for everyone in the world. Of course, this is no coincidence. The club's reputation is that of being the best in the world of football. However, they have been far from that success for the last few years. Now, it's time to turn that around this year. I am hopeful for Real Madrid. Real Madrid can win the Champions League this year, provided the players are fully motivated and avoid any serious injuries.

There is of course no doubt that we are going to see them have a good chance, because Real Madrid is the most winning team of UCL and they won the most, so of course we should never ignore them.

But at the same time it has been 2 seasons now where they won absolutely nothing, no league, no cup, no UCL, they won nothing. And that is why people have doubts and on top of that Mourinho have not won a league for ten years or so now if I am not wrong, and he has not win UCL for at least as much as well.

They are just qualifiers and trust me a lot of people are actually watching those qualifiers because my country will also have a team playing in early quali phases and world cup or no world cup , my entire country will watch the game.

I think the world cup will leave a void in sports for 2-3 weeks or even until Serie A , Bundesliga , EPL and LaLiga will start which is late August.

This is really annoying. I know  very few people are interested in watching the matches in this round. Yet these matches are being held  during the World Cup. I can't bet or even keep up with the matches properly. And the first  qualifying round matches could have started  after 2/3 weeks. UEFA is in a big hurry to fix their schedule. And as usual , no one is interested in the matches. Maybe after the world cup is over, the gamblers  will be interested in it.
In this round, I am only  a little interested in the matches of Kairat. Because I do not know any other teams except this team. We saw this team in the champions league last season.

[banana33]

This might probably become another opportunity for the Kazakhstan club to play in the champions league for the second consecutive time after last season's encounter where they made their first attempt in the competition for the first time in their history.

They  got a late winner in that game which seemed like a relief after a hard fought battle but in reality it is more like a sham considering the fact that they played at home without scoring much which could be very bad if they end up conceding more goal in the return leg.

I don't think that these players have problems finding a team to play with, in fact i believe that matches are needed to unlock them, so they have to go ahead and make them play in order to find good players ready for important occasions and he is one of these, but i realize that it's not always possible.

I wouldn't have known that the Champions League qualifiers had started if I hadn't seen your posts. Champions League matches are really boring at this crucial time of the World Cup. Maybe no one is keeping track of those matches or maybe many people don't know. Maybe there would have been some traffic if the round started after the World Cup. Now only the players and their families will support them. Honestly, I haven't even heard of any other club except Kairat, so there's not much to say about the teams' matches. I still want to be interested in the World Cup.

[cande86]

Fenerbahçe who are going to start the qualification phase soon hasn't still made a big progress on their transfers. Especially the striker transfer is still ambiguous.

Mason Greenwood is their biggest candidate but Atletico Madrid is also trying to intervene... There are only 12 days left for the first leg for the Turkish side.

Turkish teams already open every season quite late. If they don't handle their new season transfers in time also then they could struggle a lot in this phase already. 

Turkish teams always have that strange charm. Fenerbahçe is one of those teams that is always unpredictable, it seems to me that the Turks always start very late but then they always get into the game but then they always try to recover, in fact i always find them at the top, i like how they play.

At the moment i really don't think it is the best club in the world, it is true that in the past it has won a very high number of Champions League cups and that it has good players, but this does not mean that it manages to make them play well together and make them be a real team.

At a time they were wining the champions league at a very close interval and so it made so many persons saw them as the best team at the time, but if we want to consider a team as the best in the world, there has to be a standard of measure to check, that they are the best team in the world. But then it is no doubts that they are actually a very good team by many standards.

If they're not then which club is, they've won the most Champions league, 15 times for the record and only club to have won the trophy three times in a row and you still doubt they're the best? Maybe because they've not performed well enough for the past few seasons, people now underrate them but you can't write off their history.

 Why they didn't play well together is because of international issues between players and previous manager but the management is trying to organize the team this season so they can improve and go back to what we know them for. Real Madrid still remain the greatest club in Champions league history, it's undebateable.
