I think that not only the board but also the supporters are contented with Newcastle's work in the Champions League in general. I mean that of course Newcastle were quite inconsistent in the Dortmund matches. But still they are only 3 points away from the leader while there are still 2 more matches waiting to be completed in the group.
Newcastle don't have an amazing squad now. Despite being one of the richest teams in Europe they aren't able to build a dream team yet. But even with what they have in their hands they are doing pretty good job here and in the EPL both.

As Manchester United stands now, the team won't even qualify for the Europa League. The team is at the last position in the points table. Manchester United team failed to win the away match against Galatasaray. It is highly unlikely that they will win the next match against Galatasaray. On the other hand, they will play against the mighty Bayern Munich in the last match. Manchester United will not win this match either. Bayern Munich will top the group or its table. And in second place will be Galatasaray. Copenhagen is more likely to be in third place. This team is playing very well. Manchester United should now fully focus on the Premier League and try to stabilize their performance.
If Manchester United fails to qualify from the group phase and cannot even get third place in group A, of course that is very disappointing and also quite embarrassing for a team like Manchester United because in that group they are predicted to qualify with Bayern Munich because of course it will be different if they are in a difficult group like group F.However, my prediction is that if Manchester United don't make it through the group phase, at least they will get third place to play in the European League playoffs, and if it is true that they fail then Erik Ten Hag's fate will be very threatened at that club, there is a big chance that Ten Hag will get fired and ultimately Manchester United, like several seasons ago, continued the competition with a temporary coach before finally choosing a new coach.
That is a possibility and could happen, Galatasaray will play both, and if they win United and tie Copenhagen, and Copenhagen loses to Bayern and ties Galatasaray, that means United will be fourth and gone. I am not saying this will happen, there is of course still a chance that they could go up, but that doesn't mean that they may not as well, there is a very real possibility that they could be fourth and gone, and that's not good for them at all.

How the teams will perform after the international break is a bit difficult to predict. But the PSG team is in pretty good shape right now. Most of the players in the squad are fit and have adapted well to Luis Enrique's match tactics. I am looking forward to watching PSG vs Monaco in Ligue 1. If PSG can play well in this match then I think they will also win the home match against Newcastle. It is a do or die match for PSG as well. PSG may not have the chance to qualify for the round of 16 if they fail to win this match. PSG need to get 3 points in this match.PSG plays Monaco at home, as well as against Newcastle. I think this is an opportunity for PSG and their coach to get a home win despite the opponent's good performance. You are right, if PSG wins the match against Monaco then they will have good morale to win the match against Newcastle in the Champions League.

Lets see how Newcastle come back from this international break, they are a very good team, the issue they have this last times were they are short on players so they started to feel really tired, and this impact so much in their performance, with this break some players can rest so lets see if they can turn the tide.
All the teams first game will going to be a tough one because, their blood of international training is still in their blood and it will make many players to improve for their coach to see some things new in their system. Newcastle will play well both champions league games and premier league game to encourage their coach because they have what it takes to take a victory from Chelsea game because, they will not allow Chelsea to use all those tactics they use to beat some big teams in this season to beat them easily to increase their points than to use their international tactics to make the game difficult for them to win. Newcastle will do well in this game, if their coach can release all those young players in the bench to test their ability because anything can happen in the football game that will make the players people think they cannot play well to be the players that will score goals to help the team to achieve victory.

PSG match against Monaco in Ligue 1 will be valuable capital before meeting Newcastle. It would be very embarrassing if they lost for the second time to Newcastle, especially in front of their own supporters. I think it is true that it is very difficult to predict the final result of the match after yesterday break, we can only see the scenario for PSG to qualify for the round of 16.In fact, it's not just PSG who are facing a tough match in this week, Newcastle will also face a strong team in the EPL against Chelsea, so both of them are forced to field the best squad without any players being rested. I think armed with the experience that Enrique has, he can take his squad through this challenge, yes through the UCL group phase.
On paper PSG should be able to create a points gap in the group F standings, considering that they have a fairly expensive squad at the moment. however the squad reshuffle that occurred in the previous transfer window meant that Enrique did not have much time to make preparations according to his wishes. the effect is that currently they are having difficulty because they still have to face a life and death battle.
Previously Newcastle were able to beat PSG at home now PSG who will host Newcastle will be very heavy they will definitely take revenge from the defeat in the first leg and the second leg will be to secure points if PSG wins, on the other hand Newcastle must play hard because if they lose then the opportunity will be further away to qualify.
It also depends on whether Milan are able to beat Dortmund at home? If YES then the chances of qualifying are likely Milan, it's just that there are still two matches left so the rest of the matches must be able to snatch points in any match about the group will be very tight.
It should also be taken into consideration that Newcastle had a great day when they defeated PSG. It was for a very long time during the game that Newcastle didn't have that many chances, but the ones they had also resulted in goals. It isn't that easy every game and beating PSG at home is a totally different story. I think PSG will take the three points here and if Milan does not win, PSG is qualified for the knockout rounds as PSG has the upper hand because of more goals scored in the two games against Milan. It also depends on whether Milan are able to beat Dortmund at home? If YES then the chances of qualifying are likely Milan, it's just that there are still two matches left so the rest of the matches must be able to snatch points in any match about the group will be very tight.
Yep maybe I will think the same that PSG can take 3 points with their current advantage of playing at home, it is also the favorite team in this match so PSG's winning ratio may be much greater, but sometimes surprises are always at the end of the match.
As a result of defeats to Newcastle and Milan, PSG had to fight hard if they wanted to qualify for the round of 16. Losing six points was not expected by its supporters, but PSG had to accept the consequences of its inconsistent performance. Now PSG only has two matches remaining to determine their fate in the UCL, those who will host Newcastle at the Parc des Princes stadium must take advantage of this match to increase their number of points. The final match in the group stage will be tougher for PSG when playing at Dortmund's headquarters. The match must be completed perfectly to ensure a ticket to the round of 16.
Dortmund who have the same goal as PSG, will never waste this opportunity, the home match will be a place for them to rejoice in their success in qualifying for the next round. There is still a lot of drama that will happen in group F, whoever will qualify will be the best club in group F, so far it is not certain who will qualify because all four teams still have the same chance.
PSG now have to be relentless in their efforts to securing a win in their last two UCL faceoffs. They need these wins to be certain about their qualification, for Dortmund their home chance to seal their victory will be taken so dearly, both teams have good chances of qualifying, and Ac Milan and Newcastle still has a chance to meet up the pace and also qualify to the knock out stage.Dortmund who have the same goal as PSG, will never waste this opportunity, the home match will be a place for them to rejoice in their success in qualifying for the next round. There is still a lot of drama that will happen in group F, whoever will qualify will be the best club in group F, so far it is not certain who will qualify because all four teams still have the same chance.
PSG and Dortmund are certainly the two teams of the four that are in their toppest form currently, Newcastle on their part are suffering some injury set backs so their possibility of scaling through to the next round isn't so certain, for Ac Milan, we have to see them give in their best because the struggle at this point won't be made so easy for them, all teams will pave solutions and measures to be at their highest level of performance, the final result from the group stage games is so much anticipated.
Lets see how Newcastle come back from this international break, they are a very good team, the issue they have this last times were they are short on players so they started to feel really tired, and this impact so much in their performance, with this break some players can rest so lets see if they can turn the tide.
Newcastle is in last place in group F and they have to beat PSG and Milan if they want to qualify. It's not an easy matter but they will try as much as possible to secure a ticket to the round of 16 this season after being absent from the Champions League for so long. I see it as a team that is ready to penetrate this group stage and it remains to be seen whether everything goes according to Newcastle's expectations or whether they have already lost against PSG. 
All teams have the same chance although if you look at their chance percentages sequentially it is Dortmound, PSG, Milan and Newcastle.
Yeah, i think this is the only way you can look at it for now, at least until the penultimate game is played this Tuesday. This group is so hard to call and i think everyone's going to agree with that. Newcastle would be kicking themselves because they were once on top of this group, but then they lost twice in a row to Dortmund, which pushed them to rock bottom on the table. If i am to predict, i'd say Dortmund would qualify, they are just one win away from qualification, and i think they'd get that win against Milan on Tuesday, i cannot guess the other team that would join them in the RO16, and TBH all the other 3 teams have nearly equal chances to make it.I also think like that, that Dortmund, PSG, Milan and Newcastle have the same chance to qualify, because their points are also still close together. But, because Milan got a lot of key players injured and also, it seems that Newcastle do not have stable results at this moment. So yes, with these factors then, because Dortmund and PSG are currently in positions 1 and 2 in the standings, then it looks like Dortmund and PSG will maximize this moment as well as possible to stay in that position. Indeed, I also think anything can still happen and I realize that, but I also consider from their results and stability so far also in their respective local leagues that it seems that it will still be difficult for Milan and Newcastle to be able to qualify for the round of 16.
Looking forward to the clash at the Parc de Princes between PSG and Newcastle.
The PSG fans will definitely be coming in with a lot of energy to spur the team to success and will have at the back of their mind the experience their team went through at the away fixture.
Both teams are playing tough matches this weekend, against Monaco and Chelsea and will have to commit energy to that before refocusing to the Champions league, PSG have the benefit of playing a day earlier, we will see if that plays a role in Tuesday's fixture.

It is possible that if Newcastle succeeds in improving its performance, perhaps the runner-up position will be very realistic to obtain. But overall I think the Magpies' strength is still difficult to compete in the Champions League, Eddy Howe's troops on average still don't have a good enough mentality to be at the highest level. Realistically I see Newcastle will only be able to compete for 3rd place to enter the Europa League play-off zone. Maybe with strength like that, Newcastle is better suited to compete further in the second caste competition.

Group F has a very slight difference in points. PSG will play Dortmound and Newcastle, and Dortmound will play PSG and Milan. All of these matches are big matches and will be very interesting to watch. Newcastle in 4th place is only 1 point less than Milan and 2 points from PSG and in my opinion their chances of qualifying for the next round are very big. All teams have the same chance although if you look at their chance percentages sequentially it is Dortmound, PSG, Milan and Newcastle.
Yes, the points difference is really not big, but I think the potential is bigger with PSG and Dortmund, who are performing very well... Milan are having a hard time and Newcastle have only been able to play well once... I think Milan and Newcastle are outsiders in the group...
It is still too early to say that Milan and Newcastle are the outsiders of this group, there are still 2 matches left and anything can happen, obviously unlike Dortmund and PSG they must win both of their last matches to qualify, a different matter however for Dortmund and PSG who just win against Milan and Newcastle in the next match to ensure mathematical passage to the next round

Getting another win is enough for dortmund to qualify for the next stage, Acmilan and newcastle have their last life. Losing agianst newcastle and acmilan will make dortmund and PSG will have smaller chance to qualify.
Newcastle is not in the best form. You shall not expect a big thing to happen with newcastle. Look at how many injured players will not be able playing against PSG.
Eddie howe is really confusing to think about how to rotate its players against PSG. we do remember that how strong PSG is. Mbappe will become the main threat for newcastle.
There's no good defenders owned by newcastle.
Advancement to the next stage of the competition for Dortmund will be very much easy because they've been able to gain enough points to keep that at the spot they are now. Just another 3 points and they're good to go, for Milan and Newcastle, they still have to struggle and the struggle seems like a tough one and even tougher for Newcastle but at this point, they have to battle through with the players they have available as a result of injuries in the squad. Newcastle is not in the best form. You shall not expect a big thing to happen with newcastle. Look at how many injured players will not be able playing against PSG.

Their progress isn't certain and is even more shaky because, they have to battle our PSG with a team short of good players.
The threat posed by PSG is enough to detail them and currently they're standing with their heads low, the journey has been extra smooth for PSG because their players quality pays off for them.
Will Newcastle survive through this? We've got to look out for the outcome of the next UCL fixtures.

It surprises me that some here think Milan is in a bad position. They are still able to make it into the round of 16 if they win their game at home against Borussia Dortmund. Since they were able to beat PSG at home, I think they are also able to beat any other team and definitely Dortmund. The thing is if Milan wins this game, their average position turns into an excellent position because they are either ahead of both PSG and Dortmund if PSG loses against Newcastle or gets a draw, or they are ahead of Dortmund only. Either way their chances would go up to like 80% or something because Dortmund plays against PSG in the last game and they will steal points from each other. For AC Milan it is all about this one game at home against Dortmund.
The PSG team has fallen behind after defeats against Newcastle and Milan. Fans expected PSG to win both these matches. But PSG disappointed them. PSG's defeat against Newcastle was not expected at all.
Milan players are now confident after the win against PSG. However, Milan's performance is somewhat erratic due to the injury of several players in the team. However, Milan's players are fully capable of winning against Dortmund. And in the match of Milan vs Dortmund I will call the home team Milan as favorite. Milan's players resisted big teams like PSG in home matches.
We will be watching UCL after this international break, there are tough fixtures to watch. UCL Group F have been consider the toughest group in UCL this season. There's enough actions to experienced and we keep watching unexpected inconsistent results from these teams. Paris Saint-Germain are ranked second in UCL table, doesn't it mean anything? They have probability of qualifying for the next round. I'm pretty sure Les Parisiens boss, Luis Enrique will make amends for the previous points he lost against his oppositions, this is the time to step up the game.Milan players are now confident after the win against PSG. However, Milan's performance is somewhat erratic due to the injury of several players in the team. However, Milan's players are fully capable of winning against Dortmund. And in the match of Milan vs Dortmund I will call the home team Milan as favorite. Milan's players resisted big teams like PSG in home matches.
How the teams will perform after the international break is a bit difficult to predict. But the PSG team is in pretty good shape right now. Most of the players in the squad are fit and have adapted well to Luis Enrique's match tactics. I am looking forward to watching PSG vs Monaco in Ligue 1. If PSG can play well in this match then I think they will also win the home match against Newcastle. It is a do or die match for PSG as well. PSG may not have the chance to qualify for the round of 16 if they fail to win this match. PSG need to get 3 points in this match.
Dortmund who have the same goal as PSG, will never waste this opportunity, the home match will be a place for them to rejoice in their success in qualifying for the next round. There is still a lot of drama that will happen in group F, whoever will qualify will be the best club in group F, so far it is not certain who will qualify because all four teams still have the same chance.
