My opinion remains the same: the games in the new format in the group stage mean much less than in the old format, so we will see a lot of unexpected results as teams understand this and prioritize in favor of national championships. By the way, were you not surprised that City and Inter played a draw? After all, Inter at the beginning of the season looks much weaker than last year, and City looks scary. I think it is for the same reasons.

A new format in Champions League group stage no longer gives two clubs home and home away matches to play against each other. They only have one chance, a home match or a home away match, and it is risky if Manchester City lose to Inter Milan or Inter Milan lose to Manchester City. If they lose that match, they will have no chance to find 3 points from this opponent in group stage, and will have to move on with other opponents in the same group.

This format makes big clubs are fearful in their direct matches and they will aim at a draw, before looking for better chances of getting three points from weaker clubs in the group.

Honestly Arsenal are try their possible best all over the years to win the league title, but not yet happened which I’m hope for them this season that with way they make their performance very standard they might win the league, up now all Arsenal players are still a great players; like the Saka that you mentioned the guy is a better squad he always make the arsenal fans happy when ever they get match. Therefore, Arteta will fine a way out to create a chances to those wings players so that they can able to win every of their matches.

Arsenal have been trying to win the Premier League trophy for two decades.
This season, Arsenal will remain the main competitor for Manchester City, the draw in yesterday match, indicates that Arteta squad is very ambitious to end the title drought. Of course, it is not easy to make it happen, because Pep Guardiola squad is still very consistent and shows no signs of declining performance. The depth of the squad built by Arteta has increased Arsenal chances of winning the trophy, while breaking Manchester City dominance which has lasted for four consecutive seasons.

In my opinion, Arsenal only lacks a quality striker like Halaand, in other lines Arteta already has very good players. The competition for the trophy will be more difficult if other elite teams are involved, Liverpool also have the chance to put pressure on Manchester City this season. Overall, if Arsenal fails again this season, Arteta will likely be evaluated at the end of the season.

Last year Lens beat Arsenal 2-1 and then only Bayern were able to stop Arsenal. We are not saying that Lens is a strong team. Atalanta is a good team, but they are not even close to the pool of teams that play for the title among themselves. Only a very rare set of circumstances can allow Atalanta to claim the title (something like Dortmund reaching the final). Bookmakers estimate Atalanta's chances at 1 in 51.

I was wondering how Atalanta was able to handle Arsenal to the finish with a draw but I was also not too surprised considering that the Atalanta side is in good shape and could have worked hard to hold the Arsenal team tight enough. Ademola Lookman amongst other top strikers have always been players to look forward to whenever we discuss Atalanta of today and how well they're performing. I didn't really expect that they will hold Arsenal to the point of gaining more possessions than the latter but it is always good to equally establish the good efforts and hard work of the manager too.

Arsenal signing Gyikeres again? I don't think they will do that even next season, What will Arsenal use him for? Did you know that Arsenal currently has two strikers, Arsenal has Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havatz who are very strong and good in terms of scoring goals, did you think Arsenal's problem is from strikers? For me I don't think striker is Arsenal's problem because Arsenal has two best strikers on the team, Arsenal is not lucky when it comes to winning trophies but we always see Arsenal's performance every season that they play well in every game, the only thing arsenal lack is how to create a chances and score goals against big team's, Arsenal know how to play against big team's but to score goals is their problem and I think the problem is from the wing player's.

Arsenal needs a winning player who can dribble into the box like the way Vini Jr and Rodrygo are doing in Real Madrid, Dribble into the box also brings goals to the team but Saka and Martinelli are not good in that kind of style, Arteta needs to let those wing player's dribble and also create and chance to win games, I'm not arsenal fan but I want Arsenal to win the league title this season because the team has tried since many years to win the league title.

Those are not that frequent and I think getting someone like that is a very hard one. Saka is not really that far away from them, I think he is a good player and he is doing fine on his own side, so it is not really that crazy but at the same time we are going to see them do much better eventually so it is not really that complicated to see this.

The best thing to do right now for Arsenal is to get a striker like others said, because wingers aren't that easy to find at that price range, they can't get anyone that great, it is 100+ million purchase at least. They can try to find a great potential player, like not expensive right now, but could be great at Arsenal type of potential, but I do not think that it would be easy to find that player neither, would need greater scouting.

So far, Arsenal's obstacle is a pure striker who can be relied on by the team, unfortunately Arteta has not brought him even though he is actually their need. Talking about Arsenal in the Champions League, I don't have much hope. However, if Arsenal's players recover from their injuries as a whole. I am quite sure that every team that meets Arsenal will have a hard time facing their resistance. Although, they do not have a very qualified number 9 player. Uniquely, Arsenal is that every player is allowed to take the opportunity if they have the opportunity to score a goal. Like in Arsenal's front line, their three front strikers always rotate, open up space for their teammates, then try to penetrate the opponent's defense and create opportunities. As for Atalanta, several teams that are their opponents in the group stage are tough opponents. There is Stuttgart which I think is equal, Real Madrid and Barcelona. We all know, it is not easy for Atalanta to win the match.

I still have not heard the reason why Arsenal refused to get a good striker in the transfer window, after losing Eddie Nketiah in the summer and knowing what is at stake this season. It is about that time Arsenal bring in a prolific striker to the squad because they are lacking a very good finisher to lead their attacking play and guarantee at least 20 goals per season for the club.

Arsenal has two strikers available, Havertz and Gabriel. They don't mind adding a new striker. They think those two names are enough to help them this season. They are focusing on other positions, not the striker position. They scored a lot last season. It's probably their reason to feel confident enough with their available strikers. And they decided not to sign a new striker.

It all depends on the coach and what he wants, I think Mikel Arteta is satisfied with the performances of both Havertz and Gabriel Jesus hence may not see a reason to bring in an extra hand to assist in that role. Arsenal finished in second position last season behind their bitter rivals Manchester city with lots of goals and assist from Havertz, Gabriel, odegaard and Saka all contributing to the tally, I believe the coach has no doubt in his front liners and would rather seek to strengthen his defense which was why he brought in Riccardo Calafiori to help in the defense because the team had a lot of issues in that area last season and they conceded lots of goals so I think more defenders and more midfielders should be brought in rather than bringing more strikers.

Regional transfers would be the best for the team. Blindly buying strikers is not right at all. If the area that is lacking is defense, it will be necessary to send a player there, but if they still transfer players to the forward area while there are problems in defense, this would be a wrong strategy on their part. I think Arsenal has built a more settled squad than last year and it seems like this will continue in the race with City.

There is a wish that comes from the mind and there is a wish that comes from hope and right now, the wish I am seeing from you is wish from the mind because I can't see any serious tying Arsenal has displayed in this Champions League so far. Their first entry with Atalanta ended as draw, it was even a game that was supposed to be a goal for Atalanta but it was cancel and Arsenal couldn't improve it's short on target games neither were they defending.

If they are going to win or plan to win the game, it has to start by now and that's by doing something Bayern Munich are doing right now, kill any teams that comes your way and make your way into top after round 8 otherwise you will dump because alot of teams are going home right after that round. If they don't climb early, it might too late to win the league.

Arsenal may get that Gyokeres striker from Sporting, that feels like it would be the very perfect addition without a doubt. Dude is the purest striker you could ever see, there is no doubt about that, even Mbappe can play left wing, but this dude is just a pure goal scoring machine nothing more.

Plus, he has been to premier league before, Brighton and all, so he knows the system there and he has 11 goals in 8 games so far this season, that's unreal and he should definitely be bought. Many clubs will want to buy him, there is no doubt about that, but Arsenal has deep pockets and they could definitely make it happen, just pay like 100 million if you have to and get him, Arsenal should have that much money without a doubt. That would fix their troubles without a doubt.

How come Arsenal failed to secure the signature of Gyökeres from Sporting in the summer, could it be his transfer fee was too expensive or was the player was not ready to leave Sporting at the time because Arsenal showed serious interest in getting Gyokeres signed to the club. Maybe in January they could try again, I doubt they have moved on from the deal. I would like to see him come to the premier league in January, Gyökeres has some amazing stats in Sporting, I’d like to see him replicate that in the premier league.

Arsenal has the intention of signing him before the summer transfer window, but along the line, they failed to reach agreement between them and the Sporting Cp because Arsenal were thinking that they can get another option that will be cheaper, but unfortunately, they failed to sign any striker and it has started to show in their performance especially in their Champions League match agaist Atalanta.

Arteta is also a problem in this signing of a striker aspect. He have personal trust in Havertz, and he think that the team can rely on Havertz because of his last season's performance which is very wrong because everyone knows that Arsenal need a reliable striker to win the League. I wish they will bring him January.

It is not about dribbling into the box but it’s about the strategy used by the coach that will tell how well the players can apply that into the game. If dribbling into the box works for Real Madrid, it doesn’t mean it’ll work for Arsenal when they use the same method for it. Every coach has their own style of play and if he decides to copy Real Madrid as you’ve seen it as the most reliable way for them to win, they may end up not getting anything from it. Arteta has a strategy and if he can use it well for himself, I’m certain he’s going to win big with the team.

You are right, every coach with their own football strategy because Real Madrid is playing a different pattern of game from Arsenal. Arsenal is an entertaining team that love tapping the ball even when they are in your 18-yard box in order for the to make a clean finish I think Arteta knows the kind of players that he wants to fit into his game plan. A dribbler might not be able to cope with his game strategy.

If you look at Real Madrid from onset, they like buying wingers that knows how to dribble his way out from difficulties and that is working for them because that is what matches with their game pattern. Also, Real Madrid loves taking shots from outside the 18-yard box of their opponents but Arsenal does not like that pattern because they love taking shot from inside the 18-yard box of their opponents.

You see Celtic and Stuttgart; those two teams should not be underestimated, especially Celtic; they are also not weak, and they can also beat Atlanta, as you said. I cannot deny the fact that Atlanta is good in the Champions League, but still, these teams that we think are weak can put in too much effort to see that they draw, or probably it will be difficult for Atlanta to beat them, as we are saying. For the semi-finals, you know, their other top teams that are tough and doing better than Atlanta, so those teams will bring Atlanta down; they will find it hard to go to that stage.

I also see Celtic as one of the best teams to not underestimate, you should not underestimate any team, the clear example or the analogy with Glatasaray seems perfect to me, so in this sense I think that any team in the Europa League, I never imagined that Galatasaray would win, that is something that wow seems incredible to me, so the Europa League has been one of the best competitions to see how some teams improve according to their wishes, obviously the UCL is the one that everyone dreams of, but the Europa League has a very, very high level.

Last season that Atalanta was able to win Europa go and check out their performance, they were in form compared to this season and they are also playing a bigger league and not the same as last season. It is possible for them to qualify to thw round of 16 if the clubs in their group are weak but they will not survive the round of 16 because they will meet a strong team.

Atalanta's performance in their next 4 Championship League matches will tell how their limit to the Champions League would be because they are to face Shakhtar Donetsk(away), Celtic(home), VFB Stuttgart(away), and Young Boys(away), before facing Real Madrid and Barcelona next. However, I support your stated fact that they won't survive in their round of 16 because Real Madrid and Barcelona are in the pipeline of the tough teams they will face. There is no way they will defeat the mentioned teams. I considered Atalanta to have some defeats before they would kicked out at the round of 16, from the race for the Champions League title.

If you look at Atalanta's eight matches in the Champions League and Atalanta are also the defending champions of the Europa League. Actually, their chances of qualifying for the last 16 are very wide open because out of 8 matches only Arsenal, Real Madrid, and Barcelona can ensure that Atalanta will lose points.
The match against Arsenal has passed, and it can be said that it was a pretty good result because they were able to take home one point from Arsenal. So in the next match Atalanta can steal points from Shakhtar Donetsk, Celtic, VFB Stuttgart, and Young Boys. I don't think those four clubs are weak but I see those four clubs have the same quality as Atalanta so Atalanta's hopes of stealing points in that match are very possible.

However, that scenario could happen if Atalanta continues to improve the team and continues to increase its strength. Because lately Atalanta's performance has been below standard, in the domestic league alone they lost to the promoted club Como. If there is no improvement in performance, it is likely that this scenario will fail and it is certain that Atalanta will not qualify for the last 16.

The 2nd of 8 Champions League matches will be played in early October, but it seems the outcome is likely to be predictable. Many favorite teams face fairly weak opponents, but that doesn't mean they can be underestimated. Only the Arsenal vs PSG match is the toughest match in my opinion based on squad depth and team rating, while many others such as Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Inter, Liverpool, Juventus and Atletico Madrid favorite to win. Milan and Leverkusen are other matches that I consider tough, but Milan is also a favorite in my opinion. So do you agree?

Arsenal vs PSG is a tough match that is difficult to predict, but Arsenal has home advantage which might be an important factor in their efforts to secure 3 points in the second match.

For Arsenal to share points at home to Atalanta is certainly not a bad result being able to withstand the onslaught of the hosts makes its own advantages. David Raya is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, in Arteta hands his quality continues to increase dramatically, the saviour at the spot 2x is not easy, it's only fitting that Arteta prefers to discard Ramsdale.

The result may not be bad. However, I could not be satisfied with Arsenal's performance in this match. And if Arsenal perform like this, they won't do very well in the Champions League.

Atalanta were strong opponents. But even then, Arsenal should have tried to dominate the match. Arsenal players managed to make only 6 shots in the full 90 minutes. We definitely don't expect this kind of gameplay from a top tier team. Atalanta's aim was to share the points in the match. That's how they managed to do it. Arsenal should change their match tactics. At the same time the forward players have to perform better.

Not bad but not optimal because they could not get full points in their first match, because 3 points in the first match are very important considering their next opponent is a club that is also not easy to beat.
But all this has happened, they don't have to think about this, because if they think too much about what happened in this match then it will affect their mentality, it is not healthy. It is better for them to focus on preparing themselves to face the match they will play next.
Paris Saint Germain is the opponent they will face, of course this will not be easy for them, even their chances of losing are also big in my opinion.

Next week we will have some interesing games.
Leverkusen Milan and Arsenal PSG are indeed the top 2 games of the day on the paper.

If Milan will lose, and it is possible vs Bayer their situation will be already critical with 0 points in 2 games.

For the next turn we will go back in two day schdule and not 3 day like the 1st week, weird.

18 games in 2 days, with 7 games at the same hour.

They lose so much money from tv in this way...

Here I agree with you about this as we are having next schedule for two days, so UEFA is going to lose huge funds because having 7 games at the same time are never been ideal they needed to work on this as they increased number of games and bring new format, but things are getting problematic for them as well so if they are not sorted out this most chances they will be lost good amount and also have few other problems like workload for the players as well.

After first round games things are going tense for few teams like Milan because they are looking for first win which is not easy against Bayer Leverkusen as they lost badly at home against Liverpool which is currently in the best shape and now this second opponent is also challenging Arsenal vs PSG is going to be interesting game with Arsenal will have good advantage as they are playing at home and PSG was not good in first game against Girona at home.

Atalanta's performance is not good in their domestic league but when they play in the UCL they can make it difficult for big teams, like yesterday's match they were able to hold Arsenal to a draw, of course that was a good start for Gasperini's squad to collect points, and looking at the schedule you wrote Shakhtar Donetsk, Celtic, Young Boys, VFB Stuttgart.
This match will be maximized by them with a target of full points or at least holding a draw because of course the next match when facing Madrid and Barcelona Atalanta's chances are very small, referring to all that I think Atalanta can qualify for the last 16 directly or through the play-off round.

Well, their draw against Arsenal in the Champions League should have been a good asset for them when they returned to Serie A, but in fact it had no effect at all and they had to suffer defeat from a team that had just been promoted this season, Como. In my opinion, Atalanta's consistency has not been formed well, so they still show something that is beyond predictions, even when the advantage on paper is on their side. Interestingly, when facing a team that is considered stronger, they will be able to show a good game, but when they face a team that is considered weaker than them, they will actually have difficulty in that match.

Now this is what is difficult to guess, is it because the instincts of the UCL and Serie A games are different? If we judge it should be easier for Como opponents to win at home but instead Atalanta lost it was hard with the last goal.

Whereas against Arsenal the home team almost won if their penalty did not fail, by holding Arsenal's draw it was better not because we predicted Atalanta could lose even at home because the opponent was a strong English team.

I believe that the Champions League matches are different, because some of the competition is fierce and some players have confidence when they have competed in the UCL.

Arsenal is not the only club who wants his services, i'm sure there are many clubs bigger than Arsenal who want Gyokeres, it's just that we haven't seen any further rumors regarding Gyokeres' transfer. Arsenal are by far the most suitable team, they lack strength up front, and with Gyokeres, i think their squad will be perfect.
