This season has not been one of the best for Real Madrid and they have struggled to stay relevant in the league which in the end they lost to Barcelona. How they managed to stay strong in the Champions league is a mystery but yet again Manchester City took advantage of their weaknesses in a humiliating defeat in the semi final second leg at the Ethihad stadium. I expect improvement in the coming season, I want to see a bounce back for Real Madrid.

Surely Real Madrid fans also expect the same for next season. Real Madrid was eliminated due to a lack of regeneration in attack and midfield, that's what made Real Madrid can only hope for a miracle even if this season they could qualify for the finals, but it seems that just getting to the semifinals is already a pretty good achievement.

Real Madrid's management and coaches must understand that they cannot continue to rely on Benzema, Kroos and Modric because all three of them are getting old and in terms of stamina they are no longer strong enough to compete with other young players. I think a big buyout will have to be made in the summer and for sure the club president Perez will really want that.

Real Madrid have struggled this season because they still relied almost entirely on last season's squad. Los Blancos setbacks began to show in the middle of the season and some of its players like Benzema have been struggling with injuries very often. Madrid's management should have bought new players in the mid-season transfer market to refresh themselves, but in fact they were adamant not to carry out any activity during the transfer window. In my opinion there is no one to blame with such a situation including Ancelotti.

The defeat suffered by Manchester City must be an evaluation material for Madrid's management. I predict Real Madrid will struggle again in the Champions League in the next few editions due to being late in. regeneration process, unless Perez re-builds his project galacticos.

Well they were successful last season, they won both the CL and the la liga, thus i don't think the hierarchy at Real Madrid would be annoyed with how things panned out this season, at least they didn't end the season trophyless, they won the Copa del rey. Real Madrid would definitely be back next season, they are a giant club, thus they are always there every season competing for trophies. Ancelotti has confirmed that he will be their manager next season, and with the potential arrival of Jude Bellingham and other players they'll get, i am pretty sure they'll be very competitive next season.

As for Pep Guardiola, that will be a decision he will make. The reason is when he is successful with a club and brings the title they have always wanted, he decides more to leave the team, I understand that because of course he will try to find new challenges for himself. He doesn't want to stay in his comfort zone and keep wandering between one club and another. If Manchester City want to stay with Pep Guardiola, they must be able to convince this one coach. But again it will be completely Guardiola's decision.

Seeing how Pep enjoyed his journey with Man City, in the next 1 or 2 seasons he will still be with Man City. The reason is that without Pep Guardiola I am not sure that next season Man City will win the same victory. The management of the team under the control of Pep Guardiola is very structured and indeed the quality is adequate.

The only club that can take Pep Guardiola under any circumstances is Barcelona that's what Pep had said. His beloved club calling will always be fulfilled. And for the future at Man City as a whole, he will be extended. Don't just because Pep Guardiola has fulfilled Man City's dream doesn't mean he will just leave.

Guardiola has been managing Manchester City successfully for a while and has amassed reputable trophies. I'm actually impressed with Manchester City's performance, even if you're not a fan, you'll undoubtedly be impressed. The management of Manchester City has also been impressive for some, and they really did well, so they truly did work for it and they deserve it. Guardiola has actually provided manchester city with the best fulfillment. so good luck to other clubs next season they should learn and do better than manchester city.

Playing league games and Copa competitions it's different. I can understand why Real is better in CL they have some older players which can not keep up to play so many games so they focus on more important games. Real needs a coupe of new players so they can keep the the level of play they delivered past years.

Real Madrid needs more powerful players to join their team if not, I believe the upcoming season could be worse than the current one. This is because Real Madrid has always relied on three players, Benzema, Kroos, and Modric, but these players are getting older and less effective, so I believe Real Madrid needs more powerful players to play more stronger in the next season.

Real Madrid played poorly on that day, and I think Manchester City took advantage of their weaknesses to defeat them in the second leg of the semifinal match. Real Madrid's coaches need to realize that they cannot rely solely on these three players to score goals; they also need the help of other players. If other players are providing assistance but these three players are not strong enough to score the ball, I fear that they will continue to lose.

Barcelona will improve also, and I'm tipping them to do better both in the Champions League and also in the Spanish League likewise.
With one or two incomings, they can retain the tittle, I do not see them slacking down for Real Madrid. Once again, Congratulations to Barcelona.

Real Madrid will have to get replacements for Luka Modric, Cavajal and also Karim Benzema, they had issues which for myself are very obvious, they need younger and talented player's to fill in for these players, not to forget ( Toni Kroos )
Manchester City deserves the Champions League, i would love to see Erling Haaland winning the Ballon d'or in the Premier League that can only be possible if he wins the Champions League against Inter Milan.

What's the mystery? Haven't you also noticed about Sevilla this season, is that still a mystery too? Nothing is a mystery when a team is not optimal in the local league, but has good results in other competitions. Because after all, when they have bad results in the local league and still have a good chance in European competition, they will also maximize European competition but unfortunately, Real Madrid are not as lucky as Sevilla if we compare them in European competition this season.

Also, Real Madrid has won a lot of titles in the Champions League, so I expect another team to win the Champions League. Because, I think it will be boring if Real Madrid continues to be the winner of the Champions League, after all, every club certainly has changes in the team every season. So yes, it will be natural and interesting when every Champions League season has a new winner.

I don't think it was a mystery because after all Real Madrid is still a very strong team and we have seen that in the beginning of the second half against Manchester City. That was some of the best soccer they have played this season and you could literally see how Manchester City had trouble to defend against it and regain control over the game. That was only possible because De Bruyne scored that spectacular goal.

But until then Real Madrid eliminated Liverpool in the round of 16 with a total of 6-2 goals. Afterwards they took on Chelsea with 4-0 goals. One difference compared to other seasons was that both Liverpool and Chelsea haven't been in good shape, but still the way Real Madrid solved both those problems was very convincing. They also demonstrated their strength in the second leg against Barcelona in the Copa del Rey. But they found their masters with Manchester City in the second leg and that was not surprising. You could feel that Manchester City would confidently finish them off.

I won't say too far and not because I don't believe it, but if Man City can beat Inter Milan and get the Champions League title this will be a new history in the UCL world after Real Madrid failed to become the defending champion this season. I agree with your statement that if Man City is successful in winning the title in the champions league, I think City must retain Guardiola as the best coach in history who can help Man City become EPL champions and champions league.

Inter Milan has to just defend Manchester city initial attack then play them on the counter to get just one goal then park the buss because if they try to play man for man with Manchester city, they'll lose.

I'm pretty sure the manager of Inter Milan, inzaghi would be under no illusion that they can attack city the way they like and match their force equally, if they do that the game will prolly be over before the 45th minute. Thus it is pretty obvious what Inter's tactics is going to be, they are definitely going to sit very deep in their own box, i don't even think they would be looking for too many counter attacks, they will hope they can take the game to penalty shootout, but i doubt this, the quality of this City side is unbelievable, and no matter how deep Inter sit, they will find an opening and punish them.

Inter really need some good level of luck against Manchester City as well. Because only their effort might not be enough to become the champions. They would have really difficult times against Manchester City throughout the match in my opinion. Manchester City would like to dominate the whole match just as they did against Real Madrid in the rematch. There is only one thing which seems reasonable to do for Inter side here. It is to defend like hell. Because there is really no other way out for Inter in this.

None of us can deny the fact that Inter are highly underdog side here and the only way they might stand a chance is to try to wear out the players of your opponent. However I have my doubts about their defending against a this much strong team. We all must have watched how they played against Napoli in the Serie A recently. I think Manchester City are highly likely to destroy them if these defensive weaknesses at Inter can't be solved.

Manchester City has advantages from various sides, starting from the performance of the players, squad depth, to their enthusiasm which is still on fire after winning the EPL title. Because of all of that, I agree that the only way for Inter Milan to beat Manchester City is to play defensively until the penalty shoot-out.

Apart from that, this assumption is also supported by the betting market for this UCL final match. Based on what I saw on Rollbit, if the bettor chooses Manchester City to win, they will get @1.41 odds, as opposed to Inter Milan who get @7.4 odds.

pep Guardiola is already a legend coach of Manchester city, the has broken records in Manchester city, being the only coach to win three premier league in a row, is a good achievement for him and the club at large.
Winning the champions league is possible, Inter Milan isn't Manchester city match in champions league of recent. Like I Said, Earlier, whosoever win Real Madrid is already the title winner. It's just time that's keeping us, from celebrating Manchester city champions league trophy.

Pep Guardiola deserves all the praises and accolades that he is getting. No doubt this is one of the best season's in his career as he is set to win the treble. I can gamble that Manchester City will win the Fa Cup and Champions league to add to the EapL title. It will not be a bad gamble.
But, personally my respect for Guardiola will reduce if he loses the Champions League to inter Milan.

Manchester City will take their time to win this match which after they will go and lift the FA cup again.

Manchester City are resting key players in their team already ahead of their Champions League game. In their last premier league game against Chelsea they rested some key players and as a result of that, they did not win the game as expected with many goals as they usually do. Inter Milan will be practicing seriously too for this game, and this game can only be won for them with the help of tactics from the coache. Manchester City have played difficult games before qualification for the finals, so they know how to deal with pressure. There will be no second leg, so both teams will play really well in the time they have.

The Manchester City bench against Chelsea was filled with players worth more than 500 million euros, it was really scary to see these players on the sidelines. Even so, Chelsea still couldn't beat Manchester City, who appeared with a starting line-up containing second-tier players.
It can be seen that Inter were also not that serious against Napoli in last week's match in the domestic league. Inter preferred to stay and didn't want to tire their players too much. The match is still long enough for these two teams to reach the champions league final and I hope both teams appear with their core players, especially avoiding injury is also very necessary before that day arrives.

Manchester City got a good chance to win the companions League for the first time in their history because they are in a good situation and winning this game can't be hard for them
Also, this can be a great achievement for Guardiola to help Manchester City win the champions league for the first time also he is going to win the champions league for the third time. The best thing to do for Macnshter City is to extend its contract with Guardiola.

I think it's foolish to think that Manchester City will win easily. The performance of the Inter Milan team may be somewhat erratic. But this group should not be considered weak by any means. This group is quite strong. And because of their strength, they were able to qualify for the Champions League final.
Manchester City should not forget last season's nightmare. They were defeated in the final against Chelsea. The Chelsea team was not very strong either. The city was unlucky to lose. So Manchester City must perform very carefully if they want to win against Inter Milan. Otherwise, they won't be champions.

50:50 is not realistic. Most people and bookies already thought that Real Madrid won't be too much of a problem for Manchester City. Now saying that this is a 50:50 game is a bit too much even when I definitely agree that Inter can't be underestimated at all. There are 11 guys on the pitch who want to win the title more than anything else and in those situations in sports players are able to show a better performance than ever before. When Manchester City lost against Chelsea in the Champions League final, that was also a result that not a lot of people expected.

All football always has surprises, because many factors influence it. Under normal conditions I am very confident with Man City they will win. But in poor form for Man City, Inter might make a surprise. But I feel very confident 85% of Man City will dominate the game and win. Looking at the game, the player statistics, Man City's strength is very convincing. But 15% I also know Inter have strength, they might be able to emulate Roma who defended absolutely and confused Leverkusen and ended happily for Roma even though they were poor in the game.

85% is probably too high a number I think. I would more go towards 70-75%, meaning that they would win the game in regular time about 7 times out of 10 games. Even that is quite high, but I think it is realistic. We shouldn't forget that Inter isn't some amateurs club, but they are still very competitive and dangerous if they get their chances. They have several players who are strong at converting chances into goals on some days. On other days they are not effective enough, but nobody can tell whether the Champions League final will be one of those days where they hit the ball in the right angle every single time. I can imagine all kinds of results. It could be another 4-0 for Manchester City, but it could also be very close till the 90th minute and even end in a draw. But the least likely outcome is an Inter win in regular time. I can't imagine how that would happen.
