That's true PSG were just lucky against Arsenal to have won their second champions league and I doubt if they'll be that lucky this season again. From the start of the season PSG has been struggling although the season is just getting started and there's enough time to get things back in order but having a slow start might have an effect on them. We are in a new season so everything would be different definitely, I can't say for PSG yet but Arsenal still very much in good shape and it makes me believe they can go all the way this time rather than PSG winning their third champions league trophy.

Paris Saint-Germain were very lucky, that's clear, but is not that they were exactly bad, they were lucky enough to have some advantages but i doubt they can repeat that this year too, that's clear, now they have to move on and see what happens but if they were to meet Arsenal again i doubt they will repeat that.

If you say that PSG was lucky to win their second UCL title last season, I disagree with you. Because usually luck only happens once, but PSG did it two seasons in a row. In winning their two UCL titles PSG also started off badly in those two seasons they had to go through the playoff rounds and they also beat EPL teams in both seasons, which is how they were able to win their second consecutive UCL title.

Why will someone in his right state of mind think that the win that PSG had in their last champions league outing is a product of luck? PSG of al teams? if the likes of Chelsea that just got into the champions league won, we can ascribe to be possible luck but not a team like PSG that are not just the defending champion but that are at the same team one of the strongest and the most intentional team in the last season. apart from barca, no other team comes close to PSG in the way they take the champions league seriously not even the most talked about real Madrid.

Manchester City have started the season well under Maresca and are unbeaten, they will definitely do well against PSG. However, I have some doubts whether they will be able to beat PSG. PSG can perform quite strongly against big teams, but now it is a question of how Maresca will sustain the team against PSG based on his experience. However, it is not easy to stand up to Luis Enrique's style of play, but since he has previous experience, the match will not be easy for PSG either. Now it is a question of how well Maresca can apply his strategy in the new season against strong opponents. The first match against a strong opponent under Maresca was against Arsenal, where they lost, and now they will face another strong opponent and this will be their second match against a strong opponent, because the teams they have played against before have never been as strong as Manchester City, but PSG are different from everyone, and so I don't think Manchester City will win this match easily, this match could also be a draw.

It's a very difficult match to watch and predict, because they are two extremely strong teams and two teams that can provide unexpected twists. Manchester City has started the season very well and is certainly ready to face Paris Saint-Germain. Paris Saint-Germain, for their part, has started the season poorly, but in head-to-head matches they always prove to be a very tough opponent.

PSG usually perform very strongly against the big teams, PSG did not start very well in their domestic league, but that does not mean that they will be the same in the Champions League, they are definitely different here, they perform quite strongly. Last season they reached the final by beating Bayern Munich in the semi-finals and there they beat Arsenal to win the championship, these teams are very strong teams but PSG were very good against them. And so in the same way I think they are not a team to lose very easily against Manchester City. I would not say that PSG has a very good chance either, but now looking at the chances, both teams are equally strong, and so anything can happen in the match, now we just have to wait and see.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Accordingly they look set to put up a tough fight against Manchester City, who are at the top of the Premier League points table this season, in the UCL match. Having won UCL two seasons in a row, PSG has a lot of experience and as far as I can see this team also managed to win their first match so maybe they will be able to play with more determination in that match against Manchester City.

City shows great promise, and having a Haaland who can make a difference alongside Enzo is everything. On the other hand, PSG's Luis Enrique is a wily veteran, a man who analyzes every detail. He's incredibly meticulous and has an excellent understanding of the game, which is PSG's greatest strength. They also have Kvaratskhelia, who, in my opinion, is perhaps the best player and the strongest contender for the Ballon d'Or (even though he's not officially nominated).

I think PSG will be a major player, but we'll have to wait and see, because all the teams in the Champions League are very competitive and their level is truly high.

City have two strong games in a few days' period, so it will be fun to see how they will battle all of it, plus you have the 114 charges that are upon them. So I think that this will be the deciding factor to put into calculations. My money is slightly on PSG, but no matter what, City have a rough time on their hands.

It is not a difficult match to watch but rather a very indecisive game because the outcome is not certain that a particular team will win. Paris Saint Germain has not be performing as expected this season and they have lost and drew some of the matches they were supposed to win freely yet it doesn't mean Manchester city is going to win them because anything is very possible especially in game like this, Paris Saint Germain can start their good football from this game who knows.

[cande86]

Arsenal's performance this season isn't certifying, they don't look too good like they were last season even though they still have their players and has also signed more players, they will need to do better before we can believe them this time because we have more competition this time. Barcelona is here and other teams are also here now and worth winning because they have good team.

As for Paris Saint-Germain, I wouldn't call it luck, since they've managed to make the difference both in the league and the Champions League. They're a well-oiled, experienced, and obviously very strong team. And these are the characteristics that have allowed them to win the Champions League twice in a row.

The pressure Manchester City are facing is real from all directions. But because this is a consequence that they must accept, at any time it can affect the spirit of the players in going through the match. Even so, it is possible that Manchester City players will start to feel the need to take steps to try to consider moving to another team, if the sanctions imposed later really happen.

In winning their two UCL titles PSG also started off badly in those two seasons they had to go through the playoff rounds and they also beat EPL teams in both seasons, which is how they were able to win their second consecutive UCL title.

When we beat Arsenal in last season's final it wasn't just luck it was mostly due to the mentality that Enrique had built. Penalty shootouts are indeed about luck, but without the right mentality, that luck wouldn't exist. But if we're talking about PSG having a chance to win a third consecutive trophy, I agree with you. Looking at how other teams have developed compared to PSG so far, I'm also doubtful that PSG can go further this season especially since it's really hard to maintain consistency for three years in a row.

I agree, Paris Saint-Germain hasn't been lucky. They've been trying for years, and when they should have been lucky, they haven't. This team, which has brought the title to Paris twice, is a ready, effective team that plays in unison with an extremely dangerous style, and has deserved to win the Champions League twice.

Why will someone in his right state of mind think that the win that PSG had in their last champions league outing is a product of luck? PSG of al teams? if the likes of Chelsea that just got into the champions league won, we can ascribe to be possible luck but not a team like PSG that are not just the defending champion but that are at the same team one of the strongest and the most intentional team in the last season. apart from barca, no other team comes close to PSG in the way they take the champions league seriously not even the most talked about real Madrid.

You don't have to blame any one that comes with such talks because everyone has the right to analyze the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City to be a luck game which favored Paris Saint-Germain, because if you should ask me, i will suggest that it is only some Manchester City fans will say such, because in that Paris Saint-Germain really played out their best to win and also Manchester City quickly try the best too but it happens that Paris Saint-Germain works so hard for the victory and even as Paris Saint-Germain is the defending champion, it doesn't mean that they are more much better than other teams, I'm not seeing Paris Saint-Germain as the strongest as a whole, they are can be strongest when it comes to French league, i will not argue with you about that one but once it comes generazation, i don't think Paris Saint-Germain is the strongest.

Why look down on Chelsea like this, is it because of their current poor form that is not encouraging? Don’t you think that any club that makes it to the finals of the champions league and won the trophy was not because of luck but because of their dedication and commitment throughout the competition. Even the season PSG won their first champions league trophy, it was very clear that they did not get their by luck but was deserving of the trophy.

We should learn how to appreciate clubs that have done so well to have reached some certain success level, they should be encouraged more and not be spoken against. Every team must have to put in a lot of effort because it is only with that they will get to win, that the luck will even come for them. The champions league is not a small competition that we see just any team winning it, if they have won it, then they have definitely fought for it and deserved it.

You are right, winning any trophy is a product of the teams commitment,  dedication and willingness but not based on luck because it it where based on luck all the teams would have becomed champions. When Chelsea did it back in those year's,  they appeared among the best teams in the world then and where ready to do more if they have the opportunity,  so don't judge them based on their performance today because they can still gain something if they try

Do you think Chelsea are not trying to play well, they are performing poorly on their own, if you think so, you are wrong. Because Chelsea are trying hard to improve their performance and after spending so much money, no one wants them to perform poorly. Every team's goal is how they can perform well and how they can win trophies.

Chelsea are trying hard to get back to a good position from this bad position, they may be able to get back to a good position slowly but it takes time. Hopefully, we can see their performance improve before the end of this season and we can see them in the UCL next season.

That is certainly the case, as Chelsea remains a team capable of achieving success. In my view, their biggest problem is their failure in the transfer market they sign numerous players but consistently fail to get the expected level of performance and quality out of them. Many players have been signed only to be sent off to other clubs. Perhaps what Chelsea really needs to change is the team responsible for handling transfers.

[bastisisca]

Barcelona must be very upset to hear this news, as Raphinha was in excellent form this season and was the team's greatest hope for goals. I believe the duration of his injury is not yet known I hope it doesn't turn out to be a long-term one. Furthermore, many players have suffered injuries during pre-season matches in Europe Mbappé being one of them. With so many players getting injured in international matches, clubs will likely become reluctant to release their players for them.

Given how he's started the season and the number of goals he's already scored, this could have been a real breakthrough year for Raphinha, who has now suffered an injury of unknown severity. But we undoubtedly hope for a speedy recovery and a return to scoring, so he can continue on the path he's already taken.

Every Arsenal fan or otherwise a supporter of Arsenal will say that PSG won the champions league trophy by luck. But Arsenal really played well that day and dominated the game too but the pressure from PSG was too much for them that they could not resist then and they eventually equalised and took the game to even extra time and lastly penalty shootout. PSG won the game and it was not due to luck, they were the better team and they won the match in the end. PSG will be preparing for their third champions league title and I am hoping that their performance will speak well for them this season.

I think last year's Champions League final was played exceptionally well. In my opinion, it was a game played very well by Arsenal, but one that Paris Saint-Germain managed to turn to their advantage. Even though it didn't end in regulation time, it was a very close match and one that could even be repeated this year.

[giorgione]

Win can be achieved by luck, but it can happen suddenly, but it cannot be said that winning twice in a row is due to luck. In football, not everyone supports a team. Not everyone's support will be for the same team. That is why it is normal for a person to not be able to tolerate someone's success. It is also a personal matter to label the hard work of the opposing team as lucky and make it worthless. But honestly, the real truth will not change because of someone's criticism. PSG is a hard-working team, they devote themselves completely to achieving a specific goal. In this, even if one of the giant teams stands in front of them as a strong obstacle, they overcome that obstacle with patience. Since other teams do not have the ability to withstand such pressure, fans of other teams often want to underestimate them as lucky. But I think there is luck in football, but with hard work and patience, it is definitely possible to get good results.

I believe luck comes from the opportunities a team fails to capitalize on or manages to capitalize on, and from how certain dynamics unfold. However, I believe a team that deserves to win will ultimately succeed, and that's what happened for two years in a row with the Paris first team.

[changaa]

No, I don't agree with that. Arsenal fans cannot claim that Paris Saint-Germain won in the Champions League by luck, because PSG played a far superior and higher-quality game. Arsenal took an early lead but couldn't hold on. In my opinion, PSG was the side that truly deserved the title after 120 minutes they secured a well-deserved victory via the penalty shootout.

We agree on this, because while Arsenal is a strong team and even played well in the final, Paris Saint-Germain is no different, especially because they knocked out a truly fierce Bayern Munich side, who were determined to continue, and Arsenal managed to beat them at home. Despite beating them and having some difficulties, they managed to reach the final and play a noteworthy final.

[banana33]

It has been reported that Raphinha picked up an injury in the friendly match against Australia. The severity of the injury is not yet known and will be assessed later. If it turns out to be serious, Raphinha's participation in the match against PSG could be in doubt. I hope it's only a minor injury, because otherwise PSG would have some advantage over Barcelona if Raphinha is not in the Catalans'starting lineup.

I also hope it's a minor injury, not because of the Real Madrid match, even though it's certainly a crucial one, but simply because he's a player who's started the season perfectly, and I'd be disappointed if he were to miss out due to injury. So I wish him a speedy recovery.

Why will someone in his right state of mind think that the win that PSG had in their last champions league outing is a product of luck? PSG of al teams? if the likes of Chelsea that just got into the champions league won, we can ascribe to be possible luck but not a team like PSG

If you could argue luck on PSG trophies why believe so on Chelsea if they should win?, you need to understand that there are some stages in a league that shouldn't be seen as a luck, so actually in champions League is even very difficult for some big club to win there quarters finals so if perhaps Chelsea was able to be getting victory from beginning to quarter finals and semi final till they became the final team is definitely a performance that' shouldn't be mistaken to be luck because there isn't how a luck would take a club that far if they're meeting renowned champions of the league, actually even a club was an underdog before but so long as they won a league that's comprises of many club who are well known to be stronger than them are not supposed to be given such sentiment.
