Topic: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season - page 1255. (Read 141744 times)

In this transfer season, almost all clubs that qualify for the Champions League move significantly in releasing or taking football players for their clubs with the aim of preparing for the upcoming Champions League.
I don't think Barcelona will have the chance to get the chance to reach the next Champions League final because they are not strong enough to get rid of another strong enough team like Arsenal or Manchester City.
From some of the research I've done, Manchester City is still the only club that still has a big chance of winning the 2023/2024 Champions League again.

Manchester city coach has done a great job in this season, and I believe he still have more to do that will make the whole world to celebrate him by winning champions league title next season and other titles which is the major target of the coach. I don't think Manchester city will fail next season because there are potential players in the team, and they are very ready to showcase more skills that will make many people to believe that they are the best team in the champion league competition and premier league competition. Since Manchester city coach is still worry about their defensive, I think he will use this summer to bring in a potential defender that will join the team next season.

PSG weak point so far in the Champions League is because the chemistry between the players and the tactics used by the coach is not well connected. The quality of the players that PSG has should be that they can survive to the final or win the UCL title for the first time. But because the tactics used by the coach cannot be understood properly by the players, it makes it difficult for them to compete with other elite clubs.
An accomplished new coach needs to fill the PSG coach's chair to lead players who have so far failed to bring home the UCL trophy to France. The club must act immediately and give freedom to the coach in order to maintain the chance of winning the Champions League.

Here we have too much talk about PSG and their tactics in Champions League which are not working, and they are facing problems which is surely needs to be fixed if they want to have better results they have too many stars with not good manager is also problem which create mess-up and players are not able to understand chemistry of the game too much interference from the management is also problem but now as they have very good and experienced manager and big stars are also left this club hopefully now its good time for them to have understood all things and allow new coach to work with his strategy which bring good results and improved performance.

The UEFA Champions League is one of the most competitive leagues, with clubs competing for high-level performances. Manchester City is the current champion after defeating Inter Milan in the finals. I believe it was not chance that carried the city residents this far, but rather consistency and hard work put in at all stages of games. Pep Guardiola cannot make the UCL his favorite league, where he will reach the finals every season, because there is more work to add for UCL to become his favorite place. Pep will work on his weak spots in his squad, the defendlines would be sorted out in the transfer window.

PSG still didn't succeed in the champions league last season even though their squad last season was quite strong. But yes they failed to show their best power in last season. Even Neymar had to be absent and that was one of the deficiencies that might have greatly impacted their performance in the Champions League last season. For next season I think PSG is still very much counted as the strongest team in the Champions League. Mbappe has found a new front line duel for next season after Asensio joined in this season's transfer window. I think Neymar will also stay with PSG for next season so their front line is still very strong for next season. Even though Messi has left, PSG still has a pretty good sharpness on their front line. PSG only needs a coach who really understands to lead them to become the strongest team in the Champions League next season. After Galtier was fired it looks like Luis Enrique will become coach for PSG next season after Fabrizio Romano confirmed that PSG had reached an agreement with Luis Enrique.

There is always a time and season for everything and Manchester city are certainly in their prime time and I won't be surprise if they could go on secure the champion league once, although it will be difficult but I know its not an impossible task and I certainly believe pep guardiola to be a man to achieve this feat again. Currently Manchester city are the just on fire and guardiola will do everything in his powers to maintain this form if only injuries to vital players doesn't have a different opinion to their next season campaign.

Manchester City are working on new big transfers to maintain their level in the Champions League from now on. Guardiola has finally reached his target with the team here and now the main target would be to maintain this level as much as possible. They already have a solid squad of course. But there are still some areas that can even be stronger.

Defense line is an example for that. Gvardiol deal is about to be completed. Other than that we have Kovacic transfer. In case of losing Bernardo Silva to PSG they need to find a good alternative to him as well.

Who will most likely win the UEFA Champions League in 2023/2024? My support is with Barcelona. Who are you with?

That's true, in the last season Manchester City performed very well and that's mostly because of their coach Guardiola but the fact about this team and other teams is they are changing over time and there is a possibility to say for the next season the champion league we are going to see another team winning the league and surprise us, however, the Manchester City we saw has even the potential to shine in the net season.

That's what I mean. I think most people would agree that objectively Manchester City is the best team, but that doesn't lead to a Champions League title right away. This is why these KO competitions are so much fun as weaker teams still have a chance to surprise the favorites and catch them off guard. Manchester City has suffered from those bad surprises quite often in the past few years, but this time it didn't feel like they could make a mistake, but during the game I thought that it is this expectation everyone has that Manchester City will not make any mistakes that in turn put so much pressure onto them. They didn't play as well in the final as they played most of the games before. But they deserved it and are once again the favorites for the upcoming Champions League season.

Without a doubt, PSG will not be the same, because they no longer have Messi and no team can be the same without Messi, because he is the only player that I consider to be irreplaceable, but since PSG has a lot of money, I don't know what movements he can make, I am sure they were after Kane, but Kane said he wants to go to Bayern, but really here the race is being won by one of the strongest in Germany, so how can they do it? I don't know, maybe they have to look for players who can complement Mbappé, I wouldn't hesitate to give Neymar a lot of permission so that he doesn't leave, but it's difficult, apart from the fact that Mbappé doesn't continue to work with him.

Mbappé now does have the team he wanted, well now things are the way he wanted them at one point, without Messi, without Ney, just him and the team he wants, let's see how he can do this season with a PSG that needs Quick to go well, because I think that even in the same league it can have problems.



Of course yes, a technical director is very essential in a team, for me he is the fundamental piece, you can have a team of stars, something like Real Madrid was in the era of Zidan. Beckham, Ronaldo, Figo, they were pure stars, they had a great coach, and yet sometimes there were many failures but they managed to get ahead, it's something like what happens at Chelsea, they have great players of a great stature, but no director The technician has been able to decipher them and last season was a total disaster, I don't know but sometimes there are technicians who have to be very special for this type of player, not everyone can direct them, now PSG seems ideal to me that the one who would manage it was Zidane, but as I have said many times, the Sheikh is the one with the money and is the one who decides.

Now, I would like to see almost all the matches of Ligue 1, of the UCL and see the teams that are currently forming in a great way, because there are tremendous teams, especially PSG I want to see how they are going to settle, since Messi's giant hole is not just anything.


When it comes to the best players in the world, the best coaches in the world, I think that here we have to make a parenthesis and salute one of the most outstanding, and if it's Zidane, I remember that he was one of the players who played the most I liked his style, because his movements are different from those of any player, it is a style that shows elegance, it is as if he worked magic, for a reason they called him "Harry Potter" on ESPN, that he won the 3 Champions yes It is a fact, he is one of the few players in the world who have achieved that, in addition to being a player who at the time when it came to arbitration well adhered to the regulations.

I cannot speak ill of Zidane, not even when he hit the Italian in that controversial final, when the Italian messed with his sister, I think every man would have reacted like this or worse, it is of great respect, only the gesture was seen very badly.

Manchester City for a fact is the best team not just in Europe but also in the world at the moment. Their possessive style of football which has been very difficult to stop is the main reason why they are currently the best.

However I don't think it'll be possible for Manchester City to replicate the same feat the did last season and conquer Europe again. City without doubt will be the favorites to retain the UEFA Champions League title but they surely wouldn't win it again

I think that when it comes to football,Zidame has the luck and quality of a good footballer and a good coach,all these put together made him able to win UCL three times. If you look at him he has that spirit of self determination and to stay focus on his goal.

Mistakes are bound to happen and this is why we are human because we are imperfect being. So I don't see any reason why we should use our mistakes to judge our achievement. FIFA has seen these mistakes several times and that was why VAR was implored to football to correct most of this mistakes done by human.

Maybe there were no "decisive" mistakes against Real, since Real turned all the mistakes against themselves into insignificant by winning with a convincing score? 
Believe me, I am very familiar with the topic of refereeing mistakes (opinions of various fan bases), I know such terms as Evrebelona  and others, but I see no reason to discuss all this - mistakes and even conspiracies are part of football.
And in this imperfect football, Zidane won the Champions League three times in a row. When someone appears who can repeat this, it will be possible to compare their “purity” or some other secondary indicators, but now Zidane is one and this is a great achievement that cannot be underestimated.

PSG's main problem is not only about not being coached by a great and experienced coach, but they have not built up their squad depth perfectly so far. You can compare PSG's squad from season to season, they are always constrained because not many experienced players in the Champions League have played with them. Last season Messi, Neymar, Mbappe helped, but their midfield was so bad that even Marco Verratti couldn't do much.

I agree the coach is one of the important parts, but another important thing is good squad depth. If PSG have these two conditions, then I think they have a chance to win their first Champions League in the next few seasons. Manchester City have proven that with Guardiola and lots of quality players, so they should be too.

In your opinion, PSG is shooting itself in the foot with their unbalanced team and rumored internal dysfunction despite having a star-studded lineup. A similar analysis that claimed PSG's tactical deficiencies rather than its talent deficiencies has come to mind. A strong team should excel throughout, not simply on the front lines. Isn't this a necessary condition for having a strong presence in the Champions League?

However, it does appear from the sidelines that PSG's game has descended into a tactical wasteland. It's similar to watching a boat in a storm without a rudder. Does management not understand this? Or do they decide to remain silent? This criticism is aimed at the puppet masters rather than the actual actors. It seems to be a criticism of their strategy, doesn't it?

But what led you to the differentiation to say that PSG is "one of the best clubs in Ligue 1" instead of saying that they are the best and by far the richest club? That is the issue that is the most severe in Ligue as there is one team that has access to unlimited resources whereas other teams don't have the same resources, which often leads to a imbalance in the league at least in the long run. Someone will now say that Newcastle is richer and didn't win the Premier League, right, but that is why I said in the long run and Manchester City also has access to unlimited resources due to being owned by the City Football Group. Imbalances in the access to financial resources can and will create less competitive environments unless clubs meet on eye-level because they are also financially supported. That is what we might soon be seeing in the Saudi Professional League.

This can be one of the reasons that makes sense actually because looking at the current condition of PSG they don't seem to have a condition that can be proud of in terms of their management which makes the money they spend seem to be useless.
Even though we know that the Champions League is not a place that anyone can enter but should be with PSG's finances they can talk more than now.
They always focus on ready-made players is also one of their tendencies to struggle a little because they always buy old machines like Ramos or Messi, which even though their names are unquestionable but their qualifications are clearly reduced due to age.
In addition, when the competition factor is also lacking in the domestic league, I think this makes their conditions more difficult when they are in tough competitions because if you look at other competitions such as La Liga or EPL it can be said that the competition in Ligue 1 is much easier which makes them accustomed to competitions that are not too difficult to make them fail to adapt to high competitions such as the Champions League.

Guardiola believes in a balanced team, and he gives a lot of importance to the midfield area of a team. Midfield is the heart of the team. Without proper supply from the midfield, the attacking line is going to have a hard time scoring. But PSG did not realize that. They thought having a great attacking lineup is going to be everything for the team. Almost all of the goals that were scored by PSG had to be built up from the midfield. And the buildup had to be done by the editors almost half of the time. That was obviously not ideal for the team. Dst was also not able to maximize the performance of the players. Which obviously Manchester City did very well.
