For the first time in 20 years, the UEFA Champions League will not feature either of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. It's surely the end of a glorious and very exciting era in European football. Never in the history of the competition has there been two players who have been as consistent as the duo.
That being said, their absence will give room for younger stars to emerge which I think we already has some names that many are banking on to become the next stars of the competition. The draw for the group stage takes place later today in the hilly and beautiful city of Monaco and we can't wait for the return of club football's most prestigious competition.

They're at the end of their careers, so it's only natural that if there aren't two of them at UCL that we've enjoyed their games the last couple of years and that the best games compete perfectly.
Young stars will continue to emerge and believe me with the new era of the new generation we will also see exciting games and competitions UCL is the most exciting of other leagues and this is a lot to wait for.
Please do not miss the draw that we as football fans should not miss her. Tongue

Even though there is no Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi anymore, this will not reduce the popularity of the Champions League. Since last season the Champions League stage has found new competition from quite great young players such as Haaland and Mbappe. This season, the feud in the UCL might also give birth to new champions with the rise of traditional teams such as Bayern Munich, AC Milan, Inter Milan or Barcelona. Yes, it will be very interesting for us to wait for the results of the group phase drawing soon.

Cristiano Ronaldo made his debut in the UCL in 2003, while Messi made his debut in the 2005-2006 season. That being said, they have dominated Europe top leagues for more than 15 years. It is true that their era has ended in Europe, and they are enjoying a new role in a different league. I think all players will have the opportunity to be like Ronaldo or Messi, but will not be able to surpass them.

That's right besides the Champions League group draw, there will also be an award for UEFA Men's Player of the Year.

The group stage will not be the same as the qualifiers, and it does require a very good mentality to be here. There is still time for them to improve their game, and you're right they won't be able to talk much when they can't improve.
In this group stage it's possible that they'll meet clubs that don't have any luck, I mean usually they (even the big clubs) always struggle in the group stage. and I think they should make good use of that. But that's not enough, because they also have to be able to play a good game to make that happen. But let's see.

That's right, the European Champions League demands something very basic, namely a winning mentality. Every club that wants to go further must have him, even if the squad is star-studded, that is not necessarily enough. I'm very impressed with this, just look at Pep Guardiola building the Man City squad to have the mentality of being a European champion for seven years. Finally they were able to win it last season, it was amazing I thought.

In line with you, sometimes even big clubs find it difficult to secure points in the Frup phase and qualify for the round of 16. Despite the fact that they are champions in the Domestic League who qualify automatically, by the way congratulations to Galatasaray.

From Manchester City, many clubs should learn that having a good squad with a solid foundation is a long process. 7 years is not a short time and it paid off when they were able to become champions for the first time, beating other favorites who were there.
I'm not going to undermine or say a club that has just joined or has a squad of mostly new players and also a new coach doesn't have a chance to get achievements, but again we have to look at the whole in this case including the progress they show. Whether it happens quickly or by increasing slowly.

PSG have been top of Ligue 1 for a while now and automatically qualify for the Champions League group stage. They had the best players in their squad - Messi, Neymar, Mbappe. With such a squad they couldn't win the Champions League. As for Manchester City, they won for the first time last year, before that they had bad seasons like PSG. Now they need to try to confirm the title.

Royal Antwerp, Copenhagen and PSV advanced to the group stage after beating their opponents in today's game and now there are 32 teams that will enter the group stage of the champions league season 23/24. Of course we can't wait for the results of the draw for the group phase and if I'm not mistaken the draw will be made tomorrow. Can't wait for any team to be in one group and maybe the most awaited thing is that there will be a group of hell in each season. But what is clear is that this season will be an exciting one after last season many newcomers managed to get a place in the champions league zone.

Not seeing Liverpool on the list is quite strange to me, and out of the 4 Premier League clubs, Manchester City is the favorite, Arsenal and Manchester United will probably qualify from the group phase and play in the knockout stages, but Newcastle's presence in this tournament will probably be doubtful because they don't have enough experience here.
Sevilla, who qualified because they won the European league last season, are also one of the clubs that are in doubt because in Laliga they have performed poorly so far.
Bayern Munich is back to being a more competitive club with the arrival of their new striker Harry Kane, and it is a dream for the English player to be able to continue playing in the Champions League which he sometimes did not get at Tottenham.
And waiting for surprises from the teams that qualify from the playoffs in this group phase.

I also feel like that especially since the absence of Juventus also adds to the strangeness of the Champions League this season. Grin

Even though Newcastle have little experience in this competition, I think Newcastle might be one of the teams that will surprise the other teams considering they have been consistent until now. There is nothing surprising about Sevilla because after all, everyone has already guessed where this club will go next if it falls in the Champions League. Well, I agree that Bayern Munich will be the strongest challenger for this season because they managed to get their dream striker after going through a rather tough negotiation round with Spurs and we can be sure that Harry Kane's chances will be much greater to win the Champions League title if he is with Bayern Munich. Anyway, the draw for the group stages will start in less than an hour and we can watch it on the official champions league instagram account.

UEFA Champions League comes with much excitement and actions from elite clubs and football lovers. Exercising patience for UEFA Champions League draw today, definitely ongoing to stream it live. Focusing on the club's that didn't have a good performance in the previous season in UEFA CL probably they will out time for their terrible display. Barcelona have a long way to go this season and they will be relenting more on Xavi Hernandez formation and strategy. The bluagrana ultimate targets is to reach the crucial phases in the competition, getting high rank points and lifting the trophy is their dream.

This is every team's dream, not just Barcelona's. The main difference is that each club is aware of their own level of competence and how far they can advance in the competition before being eliminated. I have high hopes for Barcelona to advance in this competition this season, but it will also depend on the club they are grouped with in the group stage. After the group stage, the competition becomes more fierce and predictable than it was before.

After the group stage to the elimination stage of the competition, coaches can strategize more and have more time to strengthen their squad to play a specific team, unlike in the group stages where they must face multiple teams within a short period of time. I’m actually hoping that Xavi will do better this season with his team in the champions league and also in the La Liga.

Snip.

Adjusting the strategy based on the opponent's strategy that will be faced is what Xavi has in mind for Barcelona. Of course, Barcelona still has great difficulty scoring goals against a team that dominates its defense well and only uses counter attacks, but this season Xavi must think of a solution so that Barcelona doesn't fail again like last season.

Barceloana is one of the favorites from La Liga for this season's Champions League after Real Madrid was in first place. Xavi has had some problems due to player injuries, but I believe he will do his best so that Barcelona can reach a good level season after season.

Xavi really needs a player who is able to execute free kicks perfectly, after Messi departure, Barcelona does not yet have players who are reliable in executing free kicks. When facing an opponent with a stronger level of defense, a backup strategy is needed to find goals, one of which is by using free kicks.
So far, Barcelona has always been overwhelmed when facing teams that are more focused on defense, of course Barcelona players will find it difficult to penetrate the opponent's defense due to implementing a bus parking strategy. Xavi must be able to apply a precise strategy to go further in the UCL, last season's failures need to be evaluated to keep Barcelona's journey in the UCL this season smooth.

we are facing a new season, several teams have revamped their squad. Barcelona may be one of the teams that is currently quite strong in the Champions League. if they are in the hell group, of course it is quite difficult to fight for a place in the next round like last season.
last season Xavi focused on their achievements in La Liga. and it worked. Now if Xavi is targeting the Champions League, I think they have to prepare their team and strategy when facing strong teams. Xavi clearly knows the weaknesses of his team, and when they meet a strong team they can't just rely on ball possession. especially the team that has a stronger defense.

Adjusting the strategy based on the opponent's strategy that will be faced is what Xavi has in mind for Barcelona. Of course, Barcelona still has great difficulty scoring goals against a team that dominates its defense well and only uses counter attacks, but this season Xavi must think of a solution so that Barcelona doesn't fail again like last season.

What is certain is that we only have to wait a few more hours before the draw is made.
The 32 clubs are now complete and we're just waiting to see how the draw is made.
Last season Barcelona didn't get a good group which saw them eliminated in the group stage it seems they are hoping this time is easier than before because when they were in a difficult group again even though Barcelona have changed for the better still the skepticism towards Xavi who led Barcelona to fail to pass the group stage for the last 2 seasons makes this complicated.

Barcelona will once again await its fate during the draw for the Champions League group stage. The five-time UCL champion is indeed in pot 1 but it's not certain that they will get an easy opponent but it could make them return to the group of hell like last season, how come Xavi Hernandez will still be a strong opponent who comes from pot 2 like Manchester United , Arsenal, Borussia Dortmund and Inter Milan. Then in pot 3 there is AC Milan and Newcastle in pot 4. If the draw results again fall into a strong group then Xavi has the potential to move down again to the Europa League.

But I have another record for Barca this season, for this season the Blaugrana seem to have found their true level of play again. Xavi has really done quite a good job so far and this has been proven by him last season by successfully winning back the La Liga title. For their chances in UCL this season, I predict they will go far.

In today's match of PSV vs Rangers team, I enjoyed a very beautiful match between two teams. However, the performance of the Rangers team players was very bad. In this match, the goalkeeper of the Rangers team performed very badly. The players of the PSV team performed well on the field from the beginning to the end. PSV Team won this match today by 5 goals. I expected PSV team to win this match by 3 goals but PSV team scored 5 goals in game. Today's match was amazing.

PSV owned the match. The club is actually dominating rangers. Rangers can do nothing in this match, unlike the previous match when ranger was able scoring the goal against PSV. Ranger can still play in the europa league even though it was failed in the playoff against PSV. I wonder what grup PSV will be placed. I can't even wait till the draw is gonna happen soon. It's likely rangers will be facing strong clubs. Numerous people were picking rangers as the second leg played in the PSV's home.
Ranger has no mentality in facing the club away. It is not so bad to see that PSV destroying ranger caused by i have picked over 2.5 goals to happen in that match.
PSV and young boyz have been meet my expectation before the match. Im very happy to see the good result from either of clubs.

It's likely barcelona gonna face arsenal. There are some clubs that have become my concerns now, especially barcelona. This club always could not go to the play off.
barcelona was always failed in passing the group stage. Xavi will be coming with so many changes in the new squad. It's pretty interesting to see barcelona to play in UCL soon.

Whatever the lottery result, of course it is the best. From the way of the draw, maybe Barcelona can be in the same group as Arsenal because Barcelona and Arsenal are in different pots, Barcelona is in pot 1 while Arsenal is in pot 2.
Barcelona, which failed to get past the group stage due to poor performance with various problems faced, was not due to its presence in a group occupied by other big teams.

This season, I am very curious about the achievements that will be obtained by PSG and Barcelona. Teams like Newcastle United as newcomers this season are also the center of my attention. Are they able to go far or are they just participants who take part in enlivening the match in the group stage?

Currently I would put Barcelona ahead of Real Madrid. Because all the players of the Barcelona team play the match with great responsibility. On the other hand, if Real Madrid has a dedicated striker, I think the team will be complete.

Everyone can have their opinion, but I think that Real Madrid being ahead of Barcelona, and even if it is only slightly, is more a fact than anything else. Though I would admit that the injury of Vinicius Junior might close that gap a little bit between them. But this is only for the moment. If Barcelona can find their best shape, things could be looking differently. But Lewandowski is not quite there yet and I see a few positions that are really not filled that well.

Galatasaray have gained a special achievement by qualifying for the group stage also. Now the number of times they have qualified for this stage is the sum of the number of times each one of the other Turkish teams that did it - 17 times. This must be why Galatasaray are the most known Turkish team in Europe.

But this achievement isn't satisfying enough for Galatasaray of course. They have weaknesses to improve as you have also indicated. Signing a defender or defensive midfielder seems like a must for them now. There are still around 2 more weeks for Turkish teams to finish their deals. It must be more than enough time for Galatasaray to get ready for group matches.

Good performance from Galatasaray to make sure that they win against Molde. Galatasaray was able to win both matches against them. But the task is not over. They will still have to perform consistently in the competition.

But of course, congratulations to them for winning but it’s not going to be a really big achievement for them to be honest. They will still have to go further in this competition. I said that because it does not matter which team you are, the group stage competition is not generally taught to be a great barrier for any team.

The draw will be today, so soon we will know all the opponents in all groups. It's funny to see Newcastle in the fourth pot, apparently the group where Newcastle gets will be one of the most difficult. Actually, it's not worth guessing now, we just need to wait until the evening and we will know what the Champions League groups will be like this year. By the way, Sevilla is just as strange to see the first group, especially considering how they started their season in La Liga.

Newcatsle United got an amazing past season which brings them to Champions League this season, but it is their first appearance there after many years. By that, Newcastle United are stepping similarly like Manchester City years ago. By starting in Pot 4, they will face with risk of falling in very tough group and meet very strong opponents from other leagues. It takes Manchester City a few seasons to improve their perform in Champions League before more stably appear in knock-out phase.

Sevilla will likely to drop from Champions League to Europa League again as with their super poor performances in La Liga, I have no belief that they will be able to complete group stage well to go to a first knock out phase.

Quote from: Cryptmuster on August 31, 2023, 03:00:58 AM

if we talk about Barcelona chances in the UCL it will be difficult after the financial woes from last season which caused Barcelona to find it difficult to bring in quality players or talented players. Im not saying that Barcelona does not have top players, but its impossible if Barcelona only relies on Lewandowski while the defense also needs high quality players.

They are on their ways to improve, first improving in La Liga two seasons ago, won it in the past season. We can expect them to repeat such improvement in Champions League. They were deranked to Europa League last season so let's hope they will not be deranked after the group stage and even can go a bit far in knock out phases.

We had a bit more expectations from Barcelona in the last season of the Champions League, but I don't know why Barcelona failed to give their best performance in the last season's Champions League. According to statistics, Barcelona took the lead from Bayern Munich last season but ended up losing 2-0 to Bayern Munich. Also, against Inter Milan, Barcelona created a chance to win but ended the match with a draw. Barcelona could have finished last season's Champions League well if they could have drawn against Munich. Despite performing worse than expected last season, Barcelona have a chance to do well this season, but to do well in the Champions League tournament, Barcelona's defense must be strengthened because Barcelona's defense has not been strong so far to me.

Barcelona have bad trend in UEFA Champion League last two season in a row after failure qualify from group stage, they have been eliminated in group stage last season after loss fighting with Bayern Munich and Inter Milan. For this season still waiting with drawing group stage and will possibility for Barcelona get difficult group?

Not optimist with Barcelona chance qualify to next phase if the same group with Inter and Bayern Munich because get bad trend actually against Bayern Munich never winning yet in last several matches. Last season, Barcelona defense is solid in domestic league with teams conceded fewest goals but playing in Champion League they are most weakness defense.

if we talk about Barcelona chances in the UCL it will be difficult after the financial woes from last season which caused Barcelona to find it difficult to bring in quality players or talented players. Im not saying that Barcelona does not have top players, but its impossible if Barcelona only relies on Lewandowski while the defense also needs high quality players.
Honestly, Im waiting for Barcelona to rise from this downturn to be able to recapture its glory days but its very difficult when top teams from other leagues also have very significant improvements such as Bayern Munich who just got Kane or Man City who still have Haaland from these two teams. it is clear that Barcelona will be very difficult to compete with other top team.

Congrats, PSV was just destroying rangers after it was lost in the first leg. Playing home or away matters a lot. It surprises me how PSV destroyed braga with very big scores. It's very interesting to know the result from the UCL group draw.
Young boyz was also performing differently compared with the first leg. I hope arsenal gonna face a strong team soon. It will be so good to see madrid to get easy group. I will be very happy to see that.
