Im feeling pessimistic for PSG in the new format of UCL. Though PSG has unlimited money, Enrique is still struggling to find the right mix for his squad. It's getting worse after Mbappe decided to leave the club. And as a football fan, I'm skeptical about PSG's performance in the new UCL format. It requires them to play longer than last season. If Enrique can maximize the squad's talents, they will do better than last season. However, we must admit Mbappe's huge contribution to PSG last season. So, I have lowered my expectations for PSG.

I can't really expect Goncalo Ramos and Kolo Muani to have big contribution like mbappe. This is because Muani and Goncalo's total goals are still far below Mbappe's total last season.

So far PSG is still moving to get some players they need in the summer transfer window, although there is no name of the right front line player for them to recruit. As many people say, PSG needs a player to replace Mbappe. I am quite sure, Enrique and the club are trying their best for their squad in this window. Not only focusing on the front line, but PSG is trying to add strength in several positions. They have got young talent for midfielder, Joao Neves is predicted to be a key player in the PSG squad. Several other positions such as defenders, PSG are trying in this transfer window. Maybe, after this they will try to find a striker that they can bring in. We have not heard for sure which striker PSG is targeting, because several names that have been linked in advance have not yet reached an agreement. At least, Enrique can work to maximize his team even without Mbappe. After all, Mbappe has left and PSG must be ready to prepare his team to remain competitive.

Tomorrow we have some games and I intend to bet on these games:

Qarabag FK - Ludogorets Razgrad

Qarabag FK will play against the Bulgarian champions, this will be an interesting game because in 11 years they have won 10 titles in the Azerbaijan league and in the last game of the European Champions League Qarabag FK beat Lincoln Red in the first leg by 2 - 0 and in the second leg by 5 - 0, it was a very good performance that Qarabag FK had in both legs and we cannot forget that last season they were very close to reaching the final of the Europa League, they drew in the first leg against Leverkusen and were very unlucky in the second leg, while Ludogorets Razgrad has been a team that loses when they play away from home in this competition, for that reason I bet on Qarabag to win.

AC Sparta Prague - Fotbal Club FCSB

Sparta Prague performed well in the last game of this competition, they won in both legs, while their opponent struggled in the last game of this competition in both legs, they scored few goals although they conceded few goals too. FCSB is a team in the last games, they have also shown to have a good defense in the last games, but I believe that Sparta Prague will come out with a victory in this game. That's why I'm going to bet on Sparta Prague to win

seeing this post just boost my moral as I have already staked this particular two games with a staking power of 50$ with an inclusion of the Iceland giants virkingur included in the betslip. Although this money and selected games is kinda risky if you look at it from an angle but that's gamble for you 😁. Although the fun thing about this I staked is that the money is actually one I won of freebet so am not afraid to risk it and see how it goes.

It is simply pure stupidity to criticize Harry Kane for not securing championships at Bayern Munich. In 45 games, the guy scored 44 goals and had 12 assists. That is insane! Soccer is about the whole team; it is not a one-man exhibition. If the rest of the team isn't clicking, Kane cannot win the trophy by himself. And it's the team that didn't prepare it properly

Not solely Kane's responsibility; Bayern Munich has lately experienced some problems. The team has to decide on its tatics and approach as well as maybe bring in a fresh manager. One could find the solution in Vincent Kompany. He is an excellent coach; he may be the one to enable Bayern Munich to once more be glorious

Let's be nice to Kane. He is performing at world class and is doing all he can. It is the team that has to get moving to help him

The fact that Bayern didn't win a title is definitely not Kane's fault. As you wrote, he scored a lot of goals and actually did his job well. Bayern Munich had a lot of injured players last season and constantly had problems because of that. I'm sure that they have a very good chance of winning a title this year, at least in the German Bundesliga, but winning the CL will be difficult.

Although many people think that the curse on Harry Kane continues to apply wherever he plays in a big club, whether it is true or not, many people believe that it always happens to Harry Kane. Honestly, I am not so convinced by the curse. I hope Harry Kane can prove to everyone that he can win the German Bundesliga title this season. If we talk about the Champions League, nothing is impossible for a club like Bayern Munich, even the smallest club can do it if luck is on their side. Even though many clubs have the most expensive players, if there is no luck, it is useless to have expensive players.

I agree with you on everything that you said about luck but the problem now is that the only team with such luck is Real Madrid and no other club again. The reason why I said so is because if you watch out Real Madrid in their group stage matches, they hardly take it so serious and sometimes they qualify to the round of 16 by luck.

Whenever Real Madrid reaches the finals, they must win it because luck is more on their side in the league than another league or club. The added advantage is that they have world class players who are capable of making their luck to shine.

Here is the draw for Champions Path and League Path:

Galatasaray have drawn Young Boys. The winner of it reaches the league phase. The thing is Galatasaray couldn't start the season well after a huge defeat in Turkish Super Cup. But they are lucky that it is the same for Young Boys too. After a couple of weeks they are winless in their domestic league. The first leg match is 2 weeks away. I think Galatasaray will manage to eliminate their competitor.

Another Turkish representative Fenerbahçe are going to have an easier draw in the last stage before league phase interestingly. Lille are way more difficult team to defeat than Slavia Praha / Union Saint-Gilloise. If they get past Lille, I think both Turkish teams will reach league phase.

Predicting this game will be a bit difficult because both of the teams have chances of winning the game.
Based on current form, Qarabag is a team with the highest chance to win the match because they have won almost all their last five matches, while Ludogorets lost two matches out of their last five matches, and based on how they played to qualify in their last matches I am also giving Qarabag hope of winning; but when we also consider their last matches between the two teams, Ludogorets won one and drew one out of their last two matches which means of record or history will repeat itself, then Ludogorets should win.

Based on the statistics you shared, this will be easy to predict just that the match might not give much goals since both the teams are not too good in scoring goals.

But firstly, all teams are in the same conditions (more games for all teams), and secondly, PSG has an easy home championship (unlike Spain, England, Italy and now Germany). Wouldn't that give them an advantage over the pool of main title contenders? In my opinion, at least PSG hasn't suffered from the new Champions League format.
As for Mbappe's departure, for example, after Ronaldo's departure, Benzema reached a new level, maybe this will happen to one of the PSG players in the same way.

I don't see any reason clubs should be complaining because they are displaying what they are good at and as far as you are a player you must answer to every call for every game except on special occasion, or you are not among the top 11 then you have to be benched aside that your duty must be performed as a player. PSG don't have to much competitive competition to play in compare to the English clubs. Even Spain and others are not as tough as the English leagues. And for psg to sustain a very good position in the champions league will not be an easy one at all because they need to gather more champions league experience, for them to be able to defend well when playing the champions league. But for now we don't know who is going to pick up after mbappes departure, what if what happened in Madrid does not happen in psg you never can tell.

Like Asensio, Dembele, they haven't managed to find their best but I admit they haven't experienced a decline in their performance either. Indeed, PSG needs a stronger driving force since Mbappe left for another team and for this reason, PSG will plan to close that gap by bringing in Osimhen.
But for now there has been no success regarding the progress of Osimhen's transfer because the final terms regarding price have not yet been reached. If you look at Luis Enrique last season, of course he managed to maintain the team's performance by retaining the Ligue 1 title, but in the Champions League they were unable to compete.

Now we are going to have new era at the PSG after exit of Kylian Mbappé many players are having quality, and they were living under shadow of Mbappé, but now they will be having chance to give their best and have things at another level in this club there were rumours about big names are again coming into PSG but now look like we are having nothing luxury like this and Qatari are going to have lived without this dream of winning Champions League in near future.

After arrival of the Luis Enrique, we are having some improvement in team, and they can bring better performance under this experienced coach because he is having good technique and strategy, but now this coming season is going to be important for them because now they need to be give their best for having success in all leagues.

There is no such thing as a curse on a player. I don't think Harry Kane believes in a curse based on not fulfilling the dreams his fans want for him. He might be fulfilled but we expect much for him or more trophies in his career as a passionate fan we are but let's not forget he has the right to make decisions and be comfortable with his decisions at last.

He can win the Bundesliga, but a man does not make a forest. If he plays well and his other teammates are not performing well, of course, he won't win the league because he needs the help of his teammate. Meanwhile, his career looks more promising in Bayern Munich compared to when he was at Tottenham.

BTW, tomorrow there are several matches of the third qualifying round. From several matches I only took a few matches to put in the betting slip. Honestly, I rarely bet 1x2 but this time I tried to believe and try my luck.

Sparta Prague and Qarabag seem to be the strongest candidates to advance to the next round.

Of all your bets, there is one match that bothers me, namely Slavia Prague against Saint Gilloise. Isn't it too risky to place this match with the BTTS (No) betting option? because I think both Slavia Prague and Saint Gilloise will definitely return goals and this could thwart the bet that you have designed so neatly.

As for the match on the other slip, there is no problem and I think it will be an absolute victory for Qarabag and from one of Lille and Fenerbahce. I want to see this Champions League qualifying round full of drama and of course it would be very fun if there was a dark horse team that continued to advance.

Why do you say that and isn't it the coach who sets the strategy before playing and isn't the coach who replaces players who are not playing optimally in that match. The coach shows the direction of the game and because the coach is the one who makes the club more successful although it is not ignored that the coaching staff and players also have their respective roles. If a player makes a mistake then it is appropriate for the coach to take action to replace the player and I think the coach is important because his presence creates the strategy or substitution of players needed.

The name of a team must indeed include more parties in it such as coaches, assistant coaches, players and also other parties in the team because football is not an individual sport but a team sport so that each has its own duties in the team even though when the match is in progress the coach has more authority in terms of removing players and putting in players if there are those who play half-heartedly in the match. And I think what you said is also very clear that the coach is the person who directs the players and who continues to give signals to all players in order to get good results after the match is over.

Yes, the coach will direct the players to implement what kind of strategy and the players must be able to implement the strategy well so that everything goes as desired. The coach will always be the first person to be blamed when they can't win or show poor performance, because that is the coach's risk. We can also see what's wrong with the club, whether it's their coach who doesn't have a good strategy, or the players who can't implement what the coach directs. The coach will also bear criticism because he is considered unable to choose players according to his criteria.

I will give an example of a coach, namely Ancelotti. Most people must have heard that Ancelotti is said to be a coach with minimal strategy, but in reality he is one of the most successful coaches in the Champions League. This happens because he can give good instructions, and his players can execute them very well.

In Harry Kean situation people are just using coincidence to draw the conclusion that he is cursed. There is really nothing like that, it is just hard luck, but if he continues to remain with Bayern Munich, he has a better chance to win a trophy. Kean has most of his career in a club and country that has never won a trophy for decades now, far long enough before Harry Kean was born.

In terms of winning the Champions league, I don't think luck can get any smaller team to win the league, because there are so much quality teams involved and these teams boast of quality players from different leagues, so it will be extremely difficult for small team to winning it, in this modern era. Look at the winners for the past 20 years, it has been big clubs of this century. There is a limit that luck can get you to, but from there it is your quality and experience that will see you through.

The curse of Harry Kane is really famous in the world of football, especially among football observers. On the other hand I also know that the curse is a myth, but when I see Kane fate, which until now has always made speculation that the curse is real. Regardless of the gossip about the curse, no one can break it except Harry Kane himself, as long as he has not won a trophy the nickname of the curse will stick to him.

Maybe with Tottenham it still makes sense that he is unable to lift a trophy in any competition but if it is with Bayern Munich, of course there is a greater opportunity to prove that Kane is capable. I'm just worried that when Kane gets older, it will be more difficult for him to play productively and in the end he will have nothing to prove to us about the curse.

PSG must successfully bring in several quality players if they want to survive longer in the Champions League, Mbappe departure is a big loss for PSG because they have to look for other top players to replace his position. In fact Luis Enrique is an experienced coach who has achieved success with Barcelona, but the current situation is very different, he is handling a team that does not have the ability to compete in the Champions League.

PSG must be more aggressive to increase the sharpness of their front line, Luis Enrique must also focus on the defense sector so that they do not concede many goals. Top players may be unveiled before the transfer window closes, Now PSG is still moving to find other players who can fulfill the coach's wishes, maybe PSG is preparing a big surprise in the transfer market this time because the Champions League trophy is their only target this season.

Tomorrow in the qualification we will have several very good matches, Dynamo - Rangers is very difficult to predict, I think these teams are quite equal, and let Dynamo's confident victory over Partizan not be misleading, the match with Rangers will be more difficult, but I hope that Dynamo has enough strength to win the first match.

The second no less interesting confrontation will be Lille - Fenerbahce, the main intrigue in this match will be whether Mourinho will be able to lead his team to the group stage of the Champions League or not. He did not have much time to prepare, but he has no other option, if he loses, he will be left without the Champions League.

Another match Leipzig - Twente, I think that the victory of the hosts is obvious here, and I am even a little surprised to see the odds 1.7 for Leipzig's victory, it seems to me that Leipzig's victory is obvious here.

Sparta Prague and Qarabag seem to be the strongest candidates to advance to the next round.

This is even a good time to place a bet on 1×2 because at this point what most of this team needs to qualify and advance into the league is one of the options to either win or loose to their opponents as draw will not make much impact enough for them. Sparta Prague has really been good since this season and their performance too aswell is something we can write home about as they have been oof good performance so it's a good one to pick them of having a possible chance to win, since they need it to be in the league as the season begins.

If you look at Luis Enrique last season, of course he managed to maintain the team's performance by retaining the Ligue 1 title, but in the Champions League they were unable to compete.

Sometimes it’s takes time for a player to fully adapt to a new team na dit might be what Dembele and Asensio are going through currently, no doubt they are good talented players but we no to see thier performance this season before we conclude on wether they are declining or not. With Mbappe gone they still need some more players to try fill the void, Dembele and Asensio and Kolo Muani cannot be relied on that’s why adding Osimhen will be a huge boost to their squad but it seems they will mot proceed with signing Osimhen because of the price tag in him.

No matter the situation at PSG whether they are short on quality players they will still be able to retain the Ligue 1 title because their is no team that can compete with them yet but winning the Champions League will be difficult.

Luis Enrique is a winner manager. Therefore I understand people who are believing in him. He won the Champions League title with Barcelona in the past you know. Wink

However he has a really tough job to do now. He isn't managing prime Barcelona anymore. PSG also has really talented players of course but they are still not ready enough to go for the title in this tournament. As of Mbappe's departure, we don't know how they will perform in the Champions League yet. I don't want to mean like they will be worse of course. Because it is all about having a good team play. Then not having Mbappe won't matter that much.

Im feeling pessimistic for PSG in the new format of UCL. Though PSG has unlimited money, Enrique is still struggling to find the right mix for his squad. It's getting worse after Mbappe decided to leave the club. And as a football fan, I'm skeptical about PSG's performance in the new UCL format. It requires them to play longer than last season. If Enrique can maximize the squad's talents, they will do better than last season. However, we must admit Mbappe's huge contribution to PSG last season. So, I have lowered my expectations for PSG.

I can't really expect Goncalo Ramos and Kolo Muani to have big contribution like mbappe. This is because Muani and Goncalo's total goals are still far below Mbappe's total last season.

Enrique quality, experience and ability in training a club to become champions is beyond doubt, Barcelona is a team that has succeeded in winning trophies under his coaching so far, so far PSG has won several domestic trophies under Enrique coaching but even so the domestic trophy is not a true trophy PSG target all this time, PSG, which continues to change coaches and bring in many star players, has made the UCL trophy their main target all this time, but unfortunately Enrique still failed to get it in his first season of PSG coaching, If you look at the duration of Enrique contract, which is only two years, it can be said that the season Next is his last season at PSG, so like it or not of course he will try to maximize PSG performance next season for get the UCL trophy to maintain his prestige as a great coach , Right now he certainly has a very big burden at PSG, especially since Mbappe departure will indirectly reduce the quality of the squad they currently have, however even so, PSG, which have strong finances, will of course try to bring in several other players who are able to improve PSG quality and mentality next season in the Champions League.

PSG must successfully bring in several quality players if they want to survive longer in the Champions League, Mbappe departure is a big loss for PSG because they have to look for other top players to replace his position. In fact Luis Enrique is an experienced coach who has achieved success with Barcelona, but the current situation is very different, he is handling a team that does not have the ability to compete in the Champions League.

PSG must be more aggressive to increase the sharpness of their front line, Luis Enrique must also focus on the defense sector so that they do not concede many goals. Top players may be unveiled before the transfer window closes, Now PSG is still moving to find other players who can fulfill the coach's wishes, maybe PSG is preparing a big surprise in the transfer market this time because the Champions League trophy is their only target this season.

Almost all PSG players are quality players, but unfortunately many of them have not been able to show their best quality. Like Asensio, Dembele, they haven't managed to find their best but I admit they haven't experienced a decline in their performance either. Indeed, PSG needs a stronger driving force since Mbappe left for another team and for this reason, PSG will plan to close that gap by bringing in Osimhen.
But for now there has been no success regarding the progress of Osimhen's transfer because the final terms regarding price have not yet been reached. If you look at Luis Enrique last season, of course he managed to maintain the team's performance by retaining the Ligue 1 title, but in the Champions League they were unable to compete.
