I agree. Bayern Munich’s weaknesses have just been exposed by Bayern Leverkusen and Aston Villa and like I said before in another thread, other opponents will now have the courage to face Bayern Munich without much pressure. I hope Vincent Kompany is able to change this impression in the coming games either in the domestic league or in the Champions League tournament.


Bayern Munich could not even win Leverkusen and I underestimated that they have known  exactly the pattern that bayern Munich is playing and thT is why it was very easy to match up to bayern Munich even because of their latest development and Leverkusen scored first but could not even manage the score that they have scored and Bayern Munich did not want to also let down their guard. Day by day everything is getting more interesting.

The match will actually give them more courage to be able to face them it is true and now bayern is doing very great at the moment. Kompany surprised a lot of people and am sure he won't be baking down from any club even after what happened with Leverkusen.

It was a pretty interesting Champions League week with quite many surprising results.  Smiley  Emery's success over Bayern Munich, Benfica's shocking 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid and the unexpected loss by Real Madrid...

This makes the tournament more fun though. Because the competition gets more heated. Even the biggest title contenders struggle against smaller teams. We don't see any of them in top places after 2 weeks. We see teams like Dortmund, Brest, Benfica and so on. I know it is early but who knows maybe one of top contenders won't make it to top 8.

By the way next matches are going to continue as of October 22 because of the national break ahead.  Wink
I was against this Champions League new format before, but as I have started seeing the outcomes if the games, and I am beginning to fall in love with the new format because we will see a lot of competitive games in this group stage before the round of sixteen, and we will see a lot of surprising results in the group stage because we have started deeing after just two weeks in the competition.
Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and some dfeats yesterday are surprising, I never expected any especially these two; this reason has made me to give more attention to the Champions League this season because some teams that we are expecting to go far might not go far.
I think I’m loving the Champions League format, it makes the competition even more interesting and tougher. Previously when the draws are made, some clubs always get to play against three mid clubs in the home and away format but in this new format you get to play top teams which makes it even more interesting from the group stage.
With this new format will certainly look more competitive because there are many teams competing at UCL today and the team that looks weak actually gives a surprise like yesterday's match. But for me like that defeat is common because every big team like Madrid and several other big teams has the right strategy and is able to qualify for the next round.
Currently it is still in the second match of 8 matches and later when the match enters the 4th period, surely the big team will begin to rise with a successive victory.
However, with this new formula it doesn't seem to change much in terms of competitiveness. In fact, with all these "mattress" teams taking part in the competition, I would say that it doesn't bring anything in terms of competitiveness. Teams like Bologna who have had an excellent championship are not teams that they bring nothing to the competition but this is the new standard and therefore we must stick to this!

Barcelona against young boys bern was a super one for the Barcelona's.
In this match fans were excited how their Players Played the match I see this their new coach has changed the players in their velocity .

Barcelona as a team having young players like Lamine Yamal, Ferran Torres in their front, Gavi, Pedri, Dani Olmo in their middle and Jules kounde in their defense with this their new coach Hansi Flick.

It was a kudos for the Barcelona's team ended the game on 5-0 against Young boys despites how good the Young boys team were in the game.

After that bad start by a Monaco loss, this was really needed. Barcelona were overwhelming their opponent on paper already and they showed it in action clearly too.  Grin  Hansi Flick era is just awesome!



There were really surprising results last night. I don't know from where to start...

Aston Villa really gave Bayern Munich an upset.  Grin  Emery magic continues! We didn't see Lille win coming either. Real Madrid are really unstable these days. Of course, it wouldn't be good to finish without mentioning the destruction by Benfica. 4-0 against Simeone's Atletico? Just incredible when you think Benfica weren't doing amazing in the Champions League for a quite while.
Football is full of surprises and last night games were full of surprises and a lot of gamblers lost their bet because no one will ever believe that Lille will win Real Madrid the defending champion and Benefica would humiliate Atletico Madrid to that extent.

Bayern who has never been beaten since Kompany took over a manager was defeated yesterday by an average English Club Aston Villa. It was a memorable day for Aston Villa as they were able to win Bayern who they have not being able to win in the past 46 years ago. I think the new Champions League format is kicking some clubs off their feet until they get adapted to it.

I was really surprised last night how Real Madrid and Bayern Munich could not even draw their match in the Uefa Champions League competition. When I saw the odds of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich in the Uefa Champions League competition, I was afraid they would find it hard to win their match in the Uefa Champions League, so I had to double chance both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, but to my greatest surprise, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich could not even play a draw with their opponent in the Uefa Champions League, and both matches spoiled my bet ticket.
Champions League is a different football league game where all the champions of Europe clubs are to play each teams.

It should not be a surprise to me if Real Madrid and Bayern Munich loose. Besides the two teams were away where they suffered their lost and home teams are almost the stronger teams than the away teams and it is eleven mans game where both teams are potential to win.

So let us recall that this a football and a champions league of investable.

The results of Aston Villa's match against Bayern were indeed popular even though the resulting score was only 1-0 for Aston Villa's victory, but of course the victory was very meaningful for Aston Villa, but yes, Bayern at that time played very well and from the perspective of ball control, Bayern was certainly better. control the ball a lot. but yes, in the match between Aston Villa and Bayern, the Aston Villa goalkeeper (Martinez) was so good that it made it difficult for the Bayern players to score goals.
This win of Aston Villa can be a big shock to Bayern Munich and many football fans in Europe but it's not surprising too much if you usually watch Premier League and Aston Villa matches. In the last two seasons, they grew up a lot and it's not coincidence and pure luckiness for them to be eligible for Champions League in this season.

The win against Bayern Munich is a strong voice from Aston Villa that their club quality is increasing as a sweet result of their good development strategies recent years. They don't stop and are continuing it as you can see their high standing in Premier League this season.
The win is a big one for Aston Villa and a huge morale booster for them. I was not expecting that win because they have limited champions league experience besides Bayern Munic seem to be very determine to win a trophy this season so they were expected not to lose such important match. That is why it is football and the side that took advantage of their opportunities won. I just feel pity for Manchester United that will be meeting Aston Villa next because they might still lose again and this may not go down well with their supporters who are already depressed by the poor performance of the Red Devils.

I think Ten Hag was lucky against Porto because we saw Manchester United play with a weaker performance against Porto and, to be honest, I was expecting to see Porto win this match even with a better result but Manchester United didn't lose it and they got a 3-3 result.
The interesting thing about the game between Manchester United and Porto is about Harry Maguire. He scored the third goal for his team and saved his team in this match and he also saved Ten Hag from getting fired.

The match of the night for me was the loss of Bayern Munich to Aston villa, I mean I never really expected Bayern to lose to Aston villa and I don't know if anyone also was in shock like me. Well if it's was for any reason then it will be for the reason that I actually played that game in my betslip giving Bayern a win and over 2.5 goals but it was a total opposite of what I predicted.

Aston Villa did impressed me in their match by standing strong on their feet to win against the Bayern Munich making them rise up the table ladder significantly with the three points gathered. Torres did a great job by putting in the effort of assisting Duran in netting of the winning goal. I honestly didn't see that coming after both clubs had spent over 70 minutes battling for goals.

The Bayern Munich guys also put in their pressure but that was nothing to write home about since they couldn't penetrate the 18 yard box to score a winning goal for the Aston Villa. I also went further to check on the ball possessions and it showed Bayern was greater in performance.

Villa's only goal was purely Neuer's fault. He too often left his position. I don't know what the heck he was doing, but it's really bothering me to see that. He should just stand up, then wait in his position instead of always leaving his position.

Bayern Munich did a lot of pressure on this game. But, Villa's keeper excelled and reduced it.  They're so damn unfortunate in this game. Their player, Gnabry, got several chances to score, but he was so awful by missed it all.

I was happy to see Bayern Munich getting that win against Dynamo Zagreb but I knew that was a mid team and enough folks on here gave enough praise to Vincent Kompany after that game. I wanted to see him against a tactically sound manager and he didn't do so well against Bayern Leverkusen and now Aston Villa ( Xabi Alonso and  Unai Emery ) sometimes I feel like he's not a good replacement for Thomas Tuchel but, enough games ahead to see if he'll be able to win the Bundesliga League Competition. Bayern Leverkusen and Aston Villa has just shown the world the weakness of Vincent Kompany..

But they were 2 goals ahead before the second half, I guess they were just relaxed they won it already because I know leipzig they are always a team that stays hard to win especially  when they are leading in a particular game. They've always been a major problem for clubs even Real Madrid and Mancity had a tough time playing with them last season besides i think that was what knocked Leipzig out early(they played top club in the last UCL, somehow repeating it self again though Smiley)and I've always noticed they don't go for huge win they just maintain it once they have a lead(maybe that went wrong aswell in their last game). So far they've lost their 2 games in the early opening of the UCL,I guess it gonna be tough for then this time around.
In my opinion this season Leipzig might have difficulty to qualify for the last 16 after I saw their 8 match schedules in UCL which are against quite tough clubs such as:
1) Atletico Madrid playing away (lost)
2) Juventus playing home (lost)
3) Liverpool playing home
4) Celtic playing away
5) Inter Milan playing away
6) Aston Villa playing home
7) Sporting CP playing home
8.) Sturm playing away

Among the 8 clubs, only clubs like Celtic, Sturm and Sporting CP are in my opinion not more difficult than the 5 clubs that I did not mention, they are elite clubs and are strong candidates in the Champions League, especially Aston Villa who just beat Bayern Munich so if Leipzig only wins in 3 matches, it is likely that they will not qualify for the last 16. It is very unfortunate that their opponents are so difficult in the 3rd match against Liverpool later, it seems that Leipzig will also experience 3rd defeat.

Leipzig was pursuing a major win in a big match for a while and they gave a huge chance away. Probably a bigger chance. than they will ever get again. I was sure they would take home the victory after that tough red card and after theVAR penalty, but yet they failed again...
Whatever Leipzig does to compete in the UCL this season, I think it will be in vain, the only chance for them is to survive and be able to participate in the play-off round because I am not sure Leipzig is able to occupy the top 8 positions and above to be able to advance directly to the next round.
Look at the two UCL matches that Leipzig played against team that cannot be underestimated, Atletico Madrid and Juventus made them suffer defeat and could not have single point, on the other hand in the future there are several team that will be nightmare for them and that is match that is difficult to win.
Liverpool, Inter Milan, Aston Villa and Sporting will be the team that will certainly make it difficult for Leipzig to win and when these 4 team managed to beat Leipzig, they had total of 6 defeats and of course Leipzig position can be said to be no longer safe.
Honestly, I never expected much from team like Leipzig in the UCL competition and they will only be the team that suffers more defeats.

The new champions league format wasn’t what people don’t like because of it is increased number of games and this has nothing to do with making the league better. This for monetary reasons and not for the sport alone, this new feature though has big clubs dropping points to lower clubs.
One could argue that this unexpected result can happen with the old format too. IIRC Madrid lost to Sheriff in the past in the group stage too, so it should not be a surprise that a top team makes a mistake once or twice in the group stage. Liverpool also lost three times in the group stage when they won the Champions League iirc, so it's not that rare either.

That being said, the new format does offer more games to watch, which is not a bad thing to have as long as the players are still healthy after that. After all, watching a top team play like a third-tier club due to fatigue is not enjoyable either, at least for me. Sadly the biggest motivation for federations is money. CMIIW.

The greatest shocks in football happens often when a small teams beats the bigger one after having more possession than them throughout the game. Bayern Munich was definitely the better team and they have the better chance to have won the game in the early stages of the game but luck was not just on their side. For Aston Villa to be able to hold them to the 70th+ minutes and also were able to defend the one goal scored after that time, shows how readily prepared they’re for this competition.

Bayern Munich didn’t see this coming just like we also didn’t see it. This should not make them weak of their performance, they’re still amongst the best teams in the champions league and this can happen to any big team also and not just them. The Bayern Munich team is a very great club and have shown every quality of being one. I still see them as a title contender and also going to make the playoffs in the next round of the champions league after the first round standings.
Currently I already get rid of that thought that thought  Smiley, yeah! the thought of thought of smaller team in UCL... they all played to their best before they could make the Uefa Champ. Lea. list  though we might have some category based on the performance and how well known a club could have been in their domestic league or even champions league  and true most times we always expect a win from the top team but I don't put my mind too much to their winning and at the same time I don't get too surprised  when they lose to  their opponent.
Thus, even domestic league are getting more competitive  these days and top teams getting humbled recently(I guess everything seem to be changing). The game between them could have ended draw actually but Aston villa defence was too strong to breach besides,  Aston villa isn't a small team...

We may all eventually realize that the aim of changing the format of the Champions League is to improve this competition for the better. Some people were against the decision to change the format, including some of the participating teams, but in the end they will enjoy it.

Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​PSG, Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, Milan and several other top teams have lost. They were all favorites in this round, but the competitiveness of the match has forced them to lose. But the next match will be difficult for Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​as well as for their opponents. Dortmund vs Real Madrid, Bayern Munich vs Barcelona, ​​are really tough matches for these 4 teams.

The new champions league format wasn’t what people don’t like because of it is increased number of games and this has nothing to do with making the league better. This for monetary reasons and not for the sport alone, this new feature though has big clubs dropping points to lower clubs. And many top matches already have drop points already, so the last six matches would be a battle to watch.


I was surprised to see that Bayern Munich lost to Aston Villa, although Aston Villa was playing at home, but replay, I did not expect Aston Villa would be that good. Their way there playing a defensive game was really surprising; everybody already put hope that Bayern Munich will easily win that, although even though Aston Villa was playing at home, I did not think they will be this strong until I see that match end up like that. It’s really, so I hope this should not be a sign that Bayern Munich will be a weak team again this season. I want to see them as

Yes it was surprise mostly because almost everyone was expecting a Bayern Munich win, this is a team that hasn’t lost any game this season losing in such manner was just poor performance. Aston Villa on the other side are not just any team again since the arrival of Unai Emery they have been doing well and I see them upsetting even the top clubs, with Martinez the goal keeper making the statement that they want to go all the way in the competition we witnessed that against record 10 times Bundesliga champion were also not able to get past them so i expect them to go higher with least prediction been the last 16

You were not the only victim of the champions league wonders that happened this midweek. Many people, especially accumulation bettors lost. This is because if you Bayern, Madrid will catch you and if you manage to escape Madrid, ATM will hold you. It was just unexpected and the worse of it was that both Madrid and Bayern Munich were unable to score just a single goal. This new format of the champions league is really interesting and could give us a different outcome from what has been in the champions league.

Sadly this is what majority did predict, Bayern Munich as been dominating with goals this season, everyone would have thought they would have won against Aston Villa but this would have been the case if they played as a team and some wasn't selfish to get a goal though about all Martinez put up an hell of a performance while Manuel Neuer would be disappointed for the goal because he was relatively at fault for coming out that far from the post and John Durán did well to capitalise on that with a fine finish.
Seeing that game, you will agree with me that even Bayern Munich  did looked very promising, they were very offensive to the point you will agree they are definitely goin to win that game or get a draw at least before the game ends, loosing that game I'm sure would have come as a surprise to even the Bayern Munich squad as they too had taught they will at some point be able to get the ball behind the net before the end of the game because they had put in the effort and it was assumed their opponent were going to be compromised at some point but hopefully in the retuning leg Bayern Munich will do better.

Obviously everyone talks about unexpected results, but one bad game from a team doesn't mean they are bad or they will do badly. Real Madrid losing to Lille was obviously disappointing, but that doesn't mean they are a bad team. The greatness of Ancelotti comes from the fact that they have so many superstars, they had like what 5 ballon d'or candidates? They still didn't had any issues which is what they do, man management is next level for Ancelotti and nobody better exists on that talent.

However, one thing I can say about Madrid is that they have some problems thinking about how to score as a team, they play too individual, because they have talent they still win, but they are obviously not winning as a good team, they win as good players.

I tactical avoided that game, maybe because I wasn't too sure of what the outcome will be, but I wasn't too surprised About what the outcome later became because I already new Aston villa will want to prove a point, if you've been following up lately how they play, you will notice they have that firepower, they can technically defeat a big club that tries to undermine them, unfortunately Bayern Munich took them for granted. Another club with similar firepower like Aston villa in this champion league without much credit is Atalanta, Atalanta can actually pull a serious stunt on a big team that is not properly prepared.
Aston Villa's improved playing style has been very difficult for their opponents to predict, so the victory achieved by Aston Villa when facing Bayern Munich, I think is strong evidence that they are now much stronger compared to the previous season. Bayern Munich certainly does not consider their opponents weak, but in that match Aston Villa's performance was much better in terms of building attacks and in terms of defense. The combination of their game is increasingly interesting because every gap they already have players who are ready to make a big contribution to their duties.

Coach Unai Emery is a great figure but he still has many obstacles in the Champions League this season because this is still the early stages and requires consistency to be able to reach the next round. And also we watched the game from Juventus, they have rediscovered their identity as a strong team in the Champions League, they have succeeded in achieving maximum results which made the spirit of their players grow to be able to bring Juventus to victory in the next match.

Sadly this is what majority did predict, Bayern Munich as been dominating with goals this season, everyone would have thought they would have won against Aston Villa but this would have been the case if they played as a team and some wasn't selfish to get a goal though about all Martinez put up an hell of a performance while Manuel Neuer would be disappointed for the goal because he was relatively at fault for coming out that far from the post and John Durán did well to capitalise on that with a fine finish.

But eventually what counts is that you score one more goal than the opponent. I know this sounds simple and not worth to be mentioned, but this is a matter of fact and Aston Villa scored the goal. Interestingly, Bayern cannot allow for a next defeat. It would put them so far behind. Kompany is already under pressure.
