Wagering on pre-season games is definitely not what we expect to happen, in positions to forecast accurate predictions. In preseason games, elite clubs mostly lose to average clubs, that's totally understandable, and it doesn't even surprised me, ready to face the outcomes of these games. In pre-season games, it's consider not important and players do participate for fun. On the other hand of the coach, he utilized his players, giving gametime opportunities for every players in his squad, also a means of selecting the first XI when the season begins.

Not that we underestimate the game right? depending on which perspective you look at it. if only from the pre-season context, everyone knows that it won't have any impact, but judging from the perspective of the readiness of new players, backup players who will be needed later when core players are injured, stability with each other and much more so that we are wiser in assessing it. I understand what you mean, but when you see an elite team like the one that entered the Champions League losing that match, at least you can make notes or evaluate to improve the gaps that are easy for your opponent to penetrate. See Bayern Munich against Man City, Barcelona against Arsenal and Madrid against Man United, all aiming to improve results in training to be better prepared for next season.

Under Luis Enrique coaching PSG formation and strategy are clearly very different and can be a good change point by not relying on one player, Enrique still has time to emphasize the individual skills of each player and by improving these skills at least the ability to play gives more confidence. Currently, the center attack is not very effective, when clubs like Man City first showed the skill of individual players evenly and the results were quite good. Maybe that's what Enrique wants to implement at PSG, considering that when Mbappe was still around, the game focused more on him than expanding the attack on all sides.

Friendly matches are not a worth to see games, they were played without fierce, and we see so many tries of players and tactics.

Some games are played with subs players and the one with starters are played without the real energy of a game, no one its gonna risk a injury. Thankfully its gonna end soon this part of the season called pre-season.

Back to UCL, next round qualy its gonna be a good one.

The aim of the changes made by PSG is to be even better than last season, but everyone will probably see it next season, because one of the strikers that PSG relied on very often last season will not be seen again next season. So that PSG must be able to replace the vacant position with another player whose talent is not bad so that it can be better suited to the striker who will still survive next season, namely Neymar.

Pre-season matches cannot be used as a benchmark for team performance when the competition has started, but it cannot be left out that pre-season matches between big teams are very entertaining and provide an interesting spectacle and we can also assess the team's strength a little for next season.

Currently there are several top European teams that have started to rise, especially teams that will compete in the UCL next season. I also believe that next season's UCL will be much more fierce, but yes, it is certain that teams like Real Madrid and Man City will still be the favorites to win. in the next season but do not rule out they will get tough opponents.

So far, Real Madrid and Manchester City are the top favorites to win the Champions League. In the next Champions League season, we may not see any new team to become the champion, the known teams may win the Champions League title in the next season. Real Madrid's performance against Manchester United was really impressive. Real Madrid secured a 2-0 win against Manchester United in their last match and Real Madrid's performance against Manchester United will inspire them to do better in the next matches. There is no main striker in the team, but the performance of this team is so good, if there is a main striker like Mbappe in Real Madrid, then Real Madrid will be a strong team in all aspects.

I think so. The only problem of gorets shall face olimpija away. gorets was not able maximizing a chance to get good aggregates as preparation for the second leg. Im feeling doubt if gorets will able to win against olimpija very soon. The match gonna happen away and this is disadvantage for gorets. It surprises me that gorets was not able to win against olimpija while it has more advantage over olimpija. My guess if many people were being trapped by this match. Some were doing multi bets must be stopped here.
We will have so many matches to come but i think that the result from second leg is certain at this moment if olimpija gonna win the game.

At least this will be a pretty interesting picture, and Man City is considered Bayern Munich's handler. I know it's only pre-season but seeing how these clubs are playing seriously shows a challenge for next season. Man United had to submit to Real Madrid Bellingham's game and Joselu appeared as a hero for his victory. And what was even more surprising for Barcelona against Arsenal was that this result was not what Xavi expected, Barcelona defense looked so easy for opponents to penetrate.

This is not easy match for Ludogorets but indeed both teams has displayed good performance that Olimpija ljubljana surprisingly can able to dominate the match which make Ludogorets a bit difficulty to develop the game even Ludogorets have to conceded first by Elsnik goal that he has made fantastic goal from outside penalty box but Ludogorets didn't panic that they were several times to threaten Olimpija ljubljana defense from counter attack strategy and luckily Yankov can able to equalized the score and save Ludogorets from loses but second leg will be more difficult for Ludogorets because they have to playing away at Olimpija ljubljana home ground and i haven't seen the odds yet for second leg match but i am sure Olimpija ljubljana will be the favourite this because they have good records for home matches and since April Olimpija ljubljana still unbeatable in all competitions

After watching the friendlies, I realized that the majority of these elite clubs are underperforming. Manchester City and Real Madrid are still my favorites to win the UEFA Champions League next season, and their performances in recent games suggest that they are not holding back. Pep Guardiola and Carlo Ancelotti knows their supporters expects and they guve good out solid results. The losing clubs must improve their performance and address their errors. The UCL is a premier league, and every club is planning and signing players to compete in it next season.

Watched all of the friendly matches made me feel like i were watching UCL match. It's caused by so many clubs participated in the UCL were facing each other.

Barcelona - Arsenal

Madrid - MU

Bayern - City

All of great matches already happened. It likes those matches were giving me a clue which club that will become most favorite club to win UCL. Manchester City and Real Madrid are doing well by beating Bayern and Manchester United, while Arsenal is also doing well by beating Barcelona.
My prediction if the upcoming UCL will become very competitive. It's great to see so many big matches happening on the same day.

Im not even tiring to watch it. This is a great day.  

There's now way that Kylian Mbappe will extend his contract with a club that he's lost the passion to play for and when there's a club he wants to commit his future to because if he extents his contract with Paris Saint Germaine, the club might just regret the decision because he won't give his best on the pitch of play.
PSG I think should accept the fact that the boy wants to move to Madrid, negotiate with Real Madrid and let the Frenchman join his preferred club and save themselves from all these drama

what is certain is that Mbappe will leave PSG in the short term and all that I don't need to explain is that the issue that was problem before was between Mbappe and his own team.
every day we talk about all this but in reality there is no definite news about any of this and we can only speculate where Mbappe will go and when he should leave PSG. everyone may have different thoughts and I speculate that there might be a slight chance that Mbappe will be extended by one year or will only go to Real Madrid.

Why did Mbappe announce his plan very early for PSG? Is there any term in a contract that he has to tell PSG whether he signs a new contract with them or not in this summer and when?

If there is no such term in the current contract, Mbappe's early announcement is suspicious that he planed something with that announcement.

I don't question where he will go next after his contract with PSG expires. It's Real Madrid but because of PSG pressure and warning that they will not use Mbappe if he won't sign a new contract, and with very big offer from Ah Ahli, Mbappe has another good option to consider.

Now the question is not where he will play one season after the coming one, it is surely Real Madrid, but the question is will he accept the offer from Saudi Arabia after 31 August? Because PSG will not increase salary and repeat their past fault, Mbappe will only have Ah Ahli to choose if he wants to play in coming months.

I also think that people think the same as me, what does Mbappe really want to do so that he doesn't want to extend his contract with PSG and his contract will end next season so that makes PSG feel worried about feeling a loss if Mbappe leaves with free agency, that's why PSG is trying to bench Mbappe but it doesn't look like that will sway Mbappe's decision.

Mbappe's attitude makes many people wonder where he will go next, people always associate him with Madrid, but if there is another club he is aiming for besides Madrid, of course it will be a surprise to everyone where people expect Mbappe to go to Madrid but it turns out to be another club. apart from madrid. but from here people continue to speculate that he will move to Madrid and replace Benzema, I always wait for news about Mbappe. I think Mbappe's relationship with PSG is getting a lot of attention in the media nowadays.

If such thing happens I'm pretty confident Ronaldo would postpone his retirement plans if there is any.    He can start to play more competitive than before surely. He said that he believed the Saudi league to become a much more prestigious league in the future. It looks like he is likely to turn out to be right later on.

Considering how Saudi teams are strengthening their squads they might even be competitive for the Champions League title in the long run maybe who knows. Because they are paying a really huge sum of money for the players they sign and they can increase the bonuses a lot for winning the tournament as well to be more competitive.

But for now this is all an assumption of course. Let's see if UEFA will really do this then.

Chelsea had supported the Kyil Mbappe from long,being a part of the team Mbappe had won many cup to the team.Chelsea also help the Mbappe in his many tough situation financially.Al Hilal trying to get the Mbappe at any cost for the Saudi Arabia League.Because they want to win the cup this time without any hesitation.It may seems to be a selfish move from the Al Hilal,but they are ready to take the top player like Mbappe.

Real Madrid was the core for the Mbappe to play on the Madrid City.Real Madrid had allow the Mbappe to take the decision on own for the future.Al Hilal try to get the most talented people into their team to win the Saudi Arabia League this 2023-24.The Saudi had huge wealth and Saudi ministry itself helping the Saudi Arabia Club.Because the Saudi government also give importance to the sports is the big example to the other countries.

Although Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are at the end of their careers, they have gone to the Saudi League or America for a permanent period, but the Saudi club Al Hilal has made such a big offer to get Mbappe in the team for only one year. Since it is almost certain that Mbappe will go to Real Madrid next season, if he plays in the Saudi League for one year, I don't think it will have a bad effect on his performance. Since he has been offered for one year, Mbappe should consider this offer.
If Mbappe had extended his contract with PSG, he would not have damaged his relationship with PSG. If the contract is extended for another year and Mbappe wants to move to Real Madrid next season, PSG will accept the transfer fee from Mbappe, which will make his plan useless. If he wanted to pay the transfer fee to PSG, he would have joined Real Madrid this season. Since he does not want to pay the transfer fee to PSG, it is believed that his contract with PSG may not be renewed.

Considering Chelsea one of the clubs for Kylian Mbappe to settle in is something you're not suppose to do. Al Hilal has brought up a convincing offer for Kylian Mbappe but still, he's not ready to discuss personal terms with the club. Its alright to say he's not interested in the move despite all of the tempting offer from the Saudi's.

Real Madrid are speculated to have agreed a fee with him already but nothing has been said by Real Madrid President. I'm also convinced that would be his final destination regardless of all these big clubs parading and flaunting wealths around the most talented youth in Europe.

Patience is a Virtue, So I do believe it's a good time for Real Madrid to wait until next season, if the Kylian Mbappe really wants Real Madrid, then it'll be much easier for him to achieve. Godspeed with whatever decision he makes.

There is no evidence of Mbappe and Real Madrid having a deal already, Psg just want to use it as an excuse to chase Mbappe out of the club. The club don't want to let Mbappe go on free transfer next season, that's why we are witnessing these drama from both parties, to be Frank it won't be good if Psg allow their best player go fas free agent, it's a poor business  for the club.

Mbappe has refused to accept the huge offer from the Saudi Arabia club, and he is willing to sort things out with Psg. I believe Mbappe will sign a year with Psg, because he want to play in the champions league again.
