Does anyone actually realize how slim the chances were for Real Madrid to become champions last season? Everything is always easy to nuance in retrospect, but in the games against Manchester City and PSG they already seemed to have no chance of progressing to the next round. And they also won against Chelsea in London through a spectacle by Benzema. You rarely see such comebacks. Liverpool's path was considerably easier last season. And now they are playing against each other again. I think Liverpool will definitely win revenge on last year's final, but Liverpool are not in good form at the moment.
Of course, there weren't too many who favored Real Madrid to win last season, but they can show that they deserve to be champions. And most of the matches, they beat their opponents by making amazing comebacks. Liverpool will definitely hold a grudge against Real Madrid, because Real Madrid has stopped their steps in the Champions League several times. The problem is now that Liverpool are experiencing a decline in performance which will make it more difficult for them in this match.

DAZN will continue to broadcast Champions League matches until 2027. SKY has no chance. There will be a special offer and maybe €5 cheaper per month. DAZN will show 186 of 203 possible matches. All matches on Wednesdays and almost all matches on Tuesdays will be shown. Amazon will also broadcast a few games, so exactly 17 games per season.

Liverpool's odd to reach the quarter finals is 1.60 while Real Madrid's is 2.20 now. But I think this is no more than a trap by bookmakers. Because there isn't anything clear about this matchup. Both of these teams have had a great run in the group stage. Liverpool surprised people by their performance here despite their poor effort in the English Premier League. However we shouldn't forget about another fact that Real Madrid are the last champions in the Champions League. They made it to the title even when they weren't like the biggest favourite or so.

They are still like a secret favourite team for this title now. Liverpool will need to play extra carefully if they really want to eliminate them. We all know what Real Madrid did to the biggest title contenders in the previous season. They are even stronger now with some additions to the team. Benzema is also back after having an injury.

But for Ronaldo who is still ambitious to play, then maybe this will be something different later.

the reality is that cristiano ronaldo has not been performing well on the field in recent months, i would say that since the new manchester united coach came in he is no longer the same cristiano ronaldo, his performance has dropped a lot, his presence on the field is almost non-existent you can see how in the past, his way of playing is more similar to how an ordinary player plays, in the past cristiano ronaldo when he caught the ball he most of the time managed to lose the opponent and shot for the goal that went into the goal, today cristiano ronaldo when he takes the ball he makes a pass to his teammate who wastes opportunities, that is cristiano ronaldo is playing differently and this is making him equal to ordinary players

In that sense, which team will hire a player who doesn't score goals? all teams want to have a better striker, no team wants to have a striker who doesn't score goals, real madrid already has benzema, what cristiano ronaldo should do in my opinion would be to retire and take care of his family and business because he will hardly get any good team, he will have only two options:

1 - retire

2 - go to Qatar and Saudi Arabia to play and be forgotten

Seems misunderstanding about Fabrizio Romano update Cristiano Ronaldo in Real Madrid training center, haven't rumor and agreement deal with Real Madrid want to sign Ronaldo just have attention with training only after he has new team. Real Madrid have complicated player composition right now and Cristiano Ronaldo not at the top level, I think Carlo Ancelotti not try for signing Ronaldo.

Ronaldo has bigger ambition and seems not happy if can't get regular position at new team later, I don't with Real Madrid want speculative to sign Ronaldo due his over age and haven't consistency performance.
Right now, things looking not good for him in UEFA because most chances he will be not able to have any suitable offer from here and his next stay could be in MLS but still we have to wait for his engagements and other activities here in this region because every thing in possible with any club can go for temporary transfer as well with we still left good time into end of this season and many big teams are facing issues with injuries and other things specially Real Madrid is also having not good situation with Karim Benzema injury because with this they are facing trouble even they also have few top quality players those can change things for them but still he is the quality player and have few good seasons in his career which can bring good changes in any team but as we were having rumours about Chelsea but now suddenly he is training at the Real Madrid even just training but still interesting.

Ronaldo will find a club, that part is for sure but I do not know which club, if he wants to keep playing then there is no way he would stay away. Just the idea of Al-Nassr and 500 million euro is good enough proof that even if it is not a big club, it could be biggest pay day any player has ever seen. I still think he should accept it, way too much money to reject.
The Al-Nassr deal is still on the table, I also still think he should accept it, but Ronaldo still wants a prestigious event CL, is not easy to persuade. In his old age, he rarely suffers serious injuries because of his discipline in maintaining his body. He can be a good role model certainly for the Al-Nassr squad, his experience will be very useful for this saudi team.

A player like Ronaldo still belongs in the CL with his level, right? It's not as good as it used to be, but it's still good enough for certain teams in the CL. I don't think Real Madrid will want him back either. If he starts playing football in Qatar, he can play in the Asian CL. Also a nice level, but you don't have to see full stadiums there. I don't think Ronaldo is going there yet? Could he also consider going to a club with a slightly lesser status such as Chelsea to still play CL?

The club president will never be in approval of such
They have promising young players who are eager to represent the club
Ronaldo to Real Madrid will never happen again
It's better if you are reading the news again and real madrid just let ronaldo to did private training on its training center. WTF was wrong with you? Perez already confirmed ronaldo would not be going to the real madrid as perez already rejected ronaldo's proposal but giving a special permission for its former of player to train on its training center was good enough. Ronaldo has ever given some trophies to the real madrid and is that something wrong with you?
I advice you to read the news again before try to commenting about that.
There are a lot of people who "hoped" for such thing, and there were a lot of people who didn't want such thing, so as you might imagine in an online discussion not all facts are checked and just people say their own ideas, with their own opinions of the subject instead of talking about facts.

In all the years that Real Madrid have won the title, they have not been the strong favorites to win the title in my opinion. And especially not last year, when PSG and Manchester City were the favourites. A check with the bookmakers shows that Manchester City is the absolute favorite for the title, but that also has to do with the draw. If PSG wins against Bayern Munich, the ratios will come back to about 1 line in terms of odds. Man City will have an easy game against RB Leipzig.

Are you sure about this? I have no data but it seems to me that in those years when Real Madrid won the Champions League three times in a row and Ronaldo was in the prime, Real was the clear favorite to win. City are the favorites this year (as they have been in previous years) but let's hope that, as always, there's a team of character to send them home. As for PSG, Bayern should beat them.

It won't make sense for a team like Real Madrid to bring in Ronaldo at this time, it will result to nothing. Ronaldo is a good player but the things he can easily do in some years back he finds it difficult to do them now. Ronaldo has made name and he still remains a football legend,  but right now I think he is not the best Real Madrid needs.
The club president will never be in approval of such

Real Madrid story with Ronaldo has ended, there is no continuation between the two. Real Madrid already has a solid squad, it's impossible for them to want to bring in Ronaldo, especially at his old age. Now Real Madrid is making improvements in its squad to replace senior players such as Benzema, Modric and Toni Kroos. Real Madrid, who are struggling in the Champions League, need a younger player to replace the injured Benzema, Ronaldo is not in their plans.

Yes, Fabrizio Romano has also confirmed this, indeed the media now always reports what Ronaldo will do, even though it is only training at Real Madrid's headquarters but everyone has assumed many things, including if later Real Madrid will sign him, but it seems that it will not This might happen because Real Madrid already has good players and Ronaldo is on the bench if he really returns to Real Madrid.

It is true that there is no end to talking about these two GOATs. Messi and Ronaldo have had such a big impact in the history of football and the two of them have managed to break new records every season, but now indeed Messi is superior to Ronaldo in terms of hunting for goals or individual titles. With an age that is 2 years older than Messi, Ronaldo seems unlikely to be able to keep up with Messi in regular competition or the Champions League.

Even if it's true, CR7 will return to Real Madrid. I still believe CR7 can still achieve, he just needs confidence and support from the team and coach, he will rise.
This can be seen in the first season he returned to MU, he was able to become the top scorer at the club with 24 goals. This did not happen in the second season and the Portuguese national team because there is an enemy in the blanket like Bruno Fernandes. This is just my opinion.

Liverpool are the favorites to beat Real Madrid, according to bookmakers. I see that differently. Last year in the final, Real Madrid actually won without any problems and if you look at the players that both teams have, then maybe Real Madrid has a better selection at the moment? The match PSG - Bayern Munich is not 50-50. the bookmakers think Bayern Munich is a lot better and has a better chance of going through to the next round. It is remarkable.

ya.ya.yo!
I don't see that because regardless of anything even though in terms of conditions last season Liverpool were very attacking but still during the last few matches, especially for their 2 Champions finals, Liverpool were always in a losing position so in this case I don't see them as favorites too with its current performance it's like chicks that have lost their mother because they are always confused when attacking which always fail because they are still constrained in terms of goal productivity.
Liverpool are in a fairly good position in the Champions League. Everyone in the team plays with a lot of responsibility, Mohamed Salah is the best hope of the Liverpool team at the moment. His great performances are driving Liverpool forward.

I guess bookmakers knows something we don't? Is it just purely made out of "most people bet on Liverpool so that is why they have a lower odd" type of thing, or is there like a personal opinion involved as well. I know that a bit of the odds are decided based on what people bet, if you bet heavily on just one side that means odds of that will be like 1.40 or even lower, seen even no bets allowed on a teams win because it was too obvious. However, I am not entirely sure if people would bet on Liverpool who is 6th in premier league over Real Madrid, last winner of UCL, that doesn't really seem reasonable.

I dont see it honesty,even if the bookies said that Liverpool are the slight favorites i think Real Madrid has a big chance winning at home and in the away match at Enfield. Real Madrid knows how to play in the champions league and has a huge experience in this kind of matches
Real Madrid has a formula every time they face Liverpool, and they showed that in their previous 2 meetings. I won't be surprised when Liverpool also have many chances to beat Real Madrid, but I'm the same as you that Real Madrid has a bigger chance than Liverpool in their game this time. Not without reason, and I think we will realize the reason why Real Madrid is the favourite in this match.

Liverpool lost Mane to Bayern Munich,and ever since then,they've being like a Shadow of themselves in the premier league.They have lost the strength in attack that they used to have when Mane is on the field.They haven't being doing well for sometimes now and if they should meet a team like Real Madrid that is much inform,they will win them.They can't be favourite to win in that encounter.Real Madrid are much more better than them at the moment,and except there should be injuries to Madrid's best players,that Liverpool can win them,if not,they won't even see a draw.
Nevertheless,the encounter will be very interesting,and I can't wait for champions league to return after the world cup finals tomorrow.

I have not seen any official statement from the Bayern Munich management and as a result, I am not sure whether Sadio Mané will be available for the match or not.

As his injury was quite bad, I am not sure if Bayern will be getting him for the match against PSG. But even if they don't get him they have really good alternatives for him.
Maybe they can play Thomas Müller as the striker and play Jamal Musiala right behind him and I guess Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry can fill the Winger positions.
Overall I am really excited about the thrilling match.

Even if Sadio Mane has to be absent in the round of 16 match later, Nagelmann still has many options to rotate every player available. after all, Kingsley Coman has proven he deserves to be in Sadio Mane's place. the absence of Sadio Mane and Manuel Neuer will certainly be a bit of a problem for Bayern when they face PSG later, Bayern's sharpness and last line of defense will certainly be reduced due to the absence of these two people. Of course, no one is happy about the situation. The reason is, PSG is one of the candidates that is predicted to shine in the Champions League. even so, I'm pretty sure that Nagelmanns already has a way to prepare his troops later when they face PSG later.

On the other hand, I don't believe that the absence of Sadio Mane and Neuer will have any impact on PSG.  the reason, even though Sadio Mane was not injured. PSG, very ready to face Bayern Munich later. for sure, we will look forward to this match as soon as all the leagues are back in rolling.

You can even check it on some sites. Bookies put more odds for real madrid as bookies believe if liverpool will be winning the match. that makes me feel so confidence to pick real madrid over liverpool in the continuation of champion league in february.
he has said based on what already given by the bookmakers and i were also seeing it as well. I didn't know how bookies was picking liverpool as more favourite compared with real madrid.
It's always like that the bookmakers wanna create a trap. Real madrid was in so many advantages over liverpool. The performance from both were having very huge gap.
Liverpool always have poor records from Real Madrid so sometimes i was wondering why the bookie always provide high odds for Madrid when these teams meet each other and it was happened several times before this season even on the latest final also the bookie placed Liverpool as the favourite more than Madrid however Liverpool is not in the good shape to faced this match and injured strom has been resumes even they have to losing Luis Diaz for next several months so this is bad news for Liverpoool and it would be a good choice if you pick Madrid as your betting purposes because they have good chances to win the match and probably will qualified to quarterfinal

Real madrid just let him to train in madrid and it doesn't mean real madrid interested to give him another chance again. Real has a very good relationship with him caused by CR7 was a former of important player in madrid. that's why real madrid was giving a special place for him. The fact that if so many teams already abandoned him as he has no value to be offered in the professional football. The only chance for him to make sure if he will able to get into the club that may pay him less than his normal rate.
Ronaldo must think sometime he will be coming to the end of his career and he shall continue to be another role for the club just like a professional coach for the club.
