I don't know... Whether Kane is in the wrong place or he has a curse like others say but I don't fully believe in myths and looking at Kane's performance is much better, it's just that he was unlucky again when he moved to Bayern Munich and did not feel lifting trophies for him.

Next season for Harry Kane can feel the title ...

Even if Bayern Munich reach the final, the goal is still the final match and win it, it's just a little more difficult for Kompany as a new coach, of course he will experience great demands because Bayern Munich is a big club so 1 season must be able to win a trophy whatever it is whether Bundesliga or Champion League.

Kane is always at the wrong place at the wrong time and that is the problem with him. Imagine to be in a club that has being winning for long and that season the club didn't win the league. However, I still believe that Kane will have his best moment soon because Bayern Munich will win the league.

I don't think that it is good for us to underestimate Kompany coaching skills because he is with a different club that is strong compared to when he was coaching an average club. Bayern Munich might still reach the semifinals next season because they have experienced players in UCL and they are use to the league.

Actually in this case I am someone who does not have beliefs about superstitious curses and so on, but for Kane he seems to be quite unlucky because after all by being at a big club like Bayern in a season that should be easy for him to get a trophy but instead must experience the same fate as at Tottenham because Bayern did not get a single trophy when Kane was in the squad.

Btw, the third round has some matches that I think are quite interesting because there are some clubs that we already know where they have also been several times in the Champions League or Europa League such as PAOK who will play Malmo, Salzburg who must prepare to face FC Twente and the match I want to see the most is Fenerbahce against Lille.
For the previous rounds I didn't really follow because some clubs I didn't even recognize but for the third round this time I think it will be quite interesting to see how some clubs that can be considered quite big compete for a position in the Champions League.

After last season, saying or wondering whether Bayern Munich would return without a title for a season was on many people's minds. Usually we say that they will get at least one title, namely the Bundesliga after they have dominated the Bundesliga for many years, but now things have changed. Next season will be a difficult one for Bayern Munich as they have to reclaim the title they lost.
They are with a new coach now and actually this is a big question too, because with the new coach we haven't seen how they will perform. Will the new coach make them better or vice versa. But on the other hand, we are looking forward to seeing what will happen next season, the competition will be even more competitive than usual, which is what we want to see in the 2024/2025 season.

Bayern Munich really ended their dominance in the Bundesliga last season after Leverkusen appeared quite surprising, but next season we cannot deny that perhaps a new era for Munich will also begin with Kompany as their new coach, Leverkusen retains almost all of last season squad to compete in next season, but there is no guarantee that they will be able to repeat the miracle they did last season, there are many experiences that have happened in the past and Leicester City or Napoli can be an example of how difficult it is for a surprise team to be able to maintain their performance in the next season after humiliating the other teams dominate in the league so far, when last season Bayern Munich were able to reach the semifinals even though their performance had slumped, then why should we doubt that they would can not survive in the Champions League next season?
Munich has improved the quality of their squad by bringing in several new players so that it is possible for them to be able to continue to compete in next season, apart from that we cannot doubt Bayern Munich mentality in the Champions League so far and in my opinion, they still deserve to be a favorite team in the Champions League.

Well , the fact that Israel teams cannot play their home games on home soil , make the game difficult for them because basically both games are being played in away and that will affect the team no matter how great the players are. We saw this with Maccabi ( where FCSB managed to score and qualified further ) and we also saw this in Europa League with Petach Ticva but we almost saw Haifa being eliminated in Conference but lucky for them managed to qualify at penalties. So yea , overall , it's not a great with for Israel football clubs when it comes to European competitions.  

The dynasty that Bayern Munich built in the Bundesliga has just come to an end, luck is not with Bayern Munich as Leverkusen performance continues to improve. Maybe this season Bayern Munich will be without a title again because Leverkusen still maintains the squad that managed to achieve success last season. On the other hand, the increasing competition in the Champions League makes it difficult for Bayern Munich to survive longer, one of the factors of doubt in Bayern Munich ability is the presence of Kompany who has no experience in handling a big team and has never led his squad in the Champions League.
The Harry Kane curse is still just a myth, there is no certainty that Bayern Munich failure was caused by the curse of Harry Kane who has difficulty winning titles. If Bayern Munich form does not decline under Tuchel management, perhaps Harry Kane will win his first title.

Maccabi Tel Aviv has dropped significantly in quality and I don't know what caused them to be like this. Even though they can sometimes make it through the group stage quite certainly but what can you do every season other teams also work hard not to continue to fall behind and Petrocub is one example of a team that never gives up.

If we know that Maccabi Tel Aviv cannot win at home then we can bet on Petrocub but sometimes it is also so doubtful when a team is not familiar with the wider competition in the champions league. Well, I think with results like this it makes our betting experience increase and sometimes everything has to be in the right portion so as not to lose money in betting.

You must be kidding me. I agree that Real Madrid and City are the top favorites due to the fact that they dominate their domestic leagues and have a very good squad depth. But why do you put Munich between them and claim that Munich is the top three favorites to win the UCL this season? I think even Dortmund and PSG are better than Munich. I would put Munich as the favorite to win the title after some other strong teams such as Madrid, City, PSG, Arsenal or Inter Milan.

I don't believe in curses actually. Kane is a great striker but unfortunately he always fails to win trophies. I doubt this season Munich will win the Bundesliga. They have a new coach and I see Kompany has not proven anything. I need to watch some games to see if Kompany can really make Munich back into a title contender.

DFB Pokal is just a cheeseburger trophy, Harry Kane isn't a player that never get trophy, he won Torneio Internacional Algarve U17. What most people expect is he need to become a champion in domestic league.

I'm not really sure if curse isn't a real thing because we all know how Bayern Munich dominate the league and how good Harry Kane is, but Bayern Munich winning streak is gone after Kane's arrive.

I speculate that Bayern Munich will not become a champion in this season.

Bayern Munich has a strong tradition of winning the Bundesliga title, i agree that previously they were unlucky because the performance shown by Bayer Leverkusen continued to improve in every match. Harry Kane's curse is not a real thing, there is no such thing in football, i never believed in it. In the next season with Bayern Munich, i'm sure Harry Kane will get at least 1 trophy, at least the DFB Pokal.

Kane has spent part of his career at Tottenham and I don't think we can blame Tottenham for Kane failure to win the championship trophy so far, all the teams in the English league and other leagues have had the same target namely winning the league, but Tottenham problem is not being able to win the league is of course because they are no better than other teams, apart from that, hasn't Kane developed rapidly so far at Tottenham and Tottenham is a club that has made a big contribution to his career so far, Kane failure to win may be attributed to a curse or bad luck happened to him especially since he also failed in Munich last season, but in my opinion next season is an opportunity and proof for Kane that he really deserves to be champion and Kane, Bayern Munich and Kompany should perform optimally to do so both in the league and the Champions League, Kane has spent almost throughout his life to play football even without a single championship trophy that he got, so I'm quite curious how he will express his joy if he gets his first Bundesliga or Champions League title with Munich?

I was also surprised by the performance of Maccabi Tel Aviv I thought they would qualify for the next round because when playing away they were able to equalize the score should have played at home it would have been easier for them to give attacks to their opponents but instead they were defeated at home this must have been very disappointing for their fans who expected a win, I myself did not choose one of them to win but at least I predict both teams to score but unfortunately it did not match my prediction.

I can see it that Manchester City has 24% probability and this is much higher than Real Madrid which only have 19% probability but this is only a prediction because it could be missed and if we see from the squad i think whether it Real Madrid and Manchester City is equal but indeed if we see from the achievement Manchester City so far only gets 1 titles and compared to Real Madrid which have 15 titles obviously Real Madrid is much better than Manchester City

But i do not understand how the bookmakers determine the favourite teams for each season because in the last several season they always putting Manchester City into first favourite although in fact Real Madrid is the most successfull team in this competition besides that this season Real Madrid has got Mbappe from PSG so technically they are much stronger than last season because we all know Mbappe is world class player and he had ambition want to gets the trophy from this competition

Real Madrid can win champion league title 6 times since 2014 so clearly they are really dominate this competition so they really deserved to called as the first favourite of this competition for next season and for Manchester City so far they only bought one player from Girona Savinho even for pre season matches Manchester City still hard struggling to find their shape and so far Manchester City has poor records because they still unable to in form and they also haven't gets the winning results from 3 latest matches

I think Mbappe will have a big influence on Real Madrid because it is clear that he is a talented player and by joining Real Madrid this is certainly a good opportunity for him to prove that he has a brilliant talent that must be shown. In addition, I think Mbappe will contribute well, because he is surrounded by quality players who are clearly also under the guidance of a coach who is no longer in doubt.

I still think that Real Madrid and Manchester City will compete fiercely in the Champions League, and I think they have their own big challenges when they are in one match, where Real Madrid is a tough opponent for Manchester City and vice versa with Manchester City is a tough opponent for Real Madrid. but not only them, of course there are other teams that will definitely compete fiercely because they want the Champions League Trophy. although it is certain that Real Madrid has a great opportunity to dominate the Champions League again, it does not mean that they will easily pass everything just like that.

I think I would be much more careful about any Mourinho judgments so early on. He hasn't been a great coach recently. Beating Lugano is not like it was a masterpiece by Mourinho who put the team together in a perfect way. Fenerbahce should beat Lugano no matter what the name of the coach is. The truth is that Lugano controlled most parts of the game both at home and away from home. It is the Mourinho way of playing football that I don't like. Results are always close because he doesn't like offensive football. But at some point he will once again pay the bill for that style.

Roma was the same problem, he forced a team with great attacking potential to play more defensively. Nobody understood why.

I think it was a bad match for Fenerbahçe. The team started the match very badly and conceded one goal. If Lugano had been able to take control, it could have been a different score. Jose Mourinho showed his difference. He brought Fenerbahçe together with his interventions. That's why Fenerbahçe pulled themselves together later and managed to win the match 2-1. I think it was a match that Fenerbahçe should have won very easily, but they had a hard time. They may not be so lucky against Lille.

If we want to be more polite we can say that Kane was unlucky and that was in relation to both when he played at Tottenham and Bayern Munich. But if you look at his contribution, he played well and even became the top scorer at Tottenham and Bayern Munich. Kompany will be tested because he has to restore the dominance of the best form of play at Bayern Munich because previously they failed last season and did not get any trophies. Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga should not be difficult for Kompany because there are only a few clubs that can compete with them.

But if we talk about the Champions League, it is difficult, besides having to have experienced players, the coach is also very decisive and I doubt Kompany will be able to bring Bayern Munich to compete with other teams until the semifinals. Not to underestimate Kompany's skills, but I see that he does not have the opportunity for that now because there are many other coaches who are much more experienced.

I agree with your statement, so far Fenerbahce has always lost to Galatasaray in the domestic league, Mourinho's recruitment is expected to improve Fenerbahce performance to return to its best form and break Galatasaray dominance. Mourinho who is very experienced in handling clubs, will certainly get Fenerbahce out of the problems it is currently facing. Regarding the Champions League trophy, it is clearly not his target because it is very difficult to compete with other teams that are much stronger.

Competition in the Super Lig is their main target at the moment, but qualifying for the Champions League can also boost the players' confidence because they get the opportunity to play in Europe's elite competition. A team like Fenerbahce still has difficulty competing with other strong teams such as Manchester City, Real Madrid and Liverpool. Qualifying for the Champions League is enough for them, but hopes of winning the title are still very far away.

Because the load is a question mark, then for me it is not necessarily true regarding Harry Kane who has never won a title. What I mean is not because of Tottenham Hotspur, Kane failed to win the championship trophy. Kane's curse will end with Bayern Munich even though last season as his first season he still couldn't lift the trophy.

Last season before Vincent Kompany was appointed as head coach, Kane and his friends were unlucky, both in the Bundesliga and in the Champions League.
Luck will be on their side next season or the 2024/2025 season to take back the Bundesliga title from Bayer Leverkusen even though some people doubt Vincent Kompany.
