Indeed, there is still a month before the first games of the Champions League playoffs and let's hope that, in the worst case, a new wave of the epidemic is now at its peak and then everything will go downhill.

It's a good thing we won't have Champions League games for a month.
Because this month of January, because this will certainly be the worst month of the pandemic.
In that sense, maybe in February the main players will be out of this situation.

Out of curiosity, Bayern lost this last game, to the Bundesliga.

I also agree with you. We can say that this period has been the year in which the pandemic spread the most all over the world, especially in Europe. It was influenced by football. It's a good thing the champions league isn't for a month. In such organizations, people want to watch both teams on the field at full strength. The opposing team can gain an advantage with players who will not be on the field as the coronavirus has affected. Let's see if the coronavirus cases will drop until the champions league matches start.

most likely the main goal of the president of psg recruiting messi, because psg wants to lift the prestigious league trophy, because psg if in their own match they are satisfied with lifting the league trophy, but they want to lift the champions league trophy, they expect messi to bring miracles in the champions league, if messi succeeds bringing psg to lift the champions league champion, it is certain that messi will be considered as a bringer of luck, and they will definitely extend messi's contract at psg..

Is it only Messi who is nicknamed the star there ? because what I see there are a lot of star players at the PSG club and while Messi is at PSG his performance has not been good, whether it's because he is 34 years old or because of other factors, what is clear at PSG is that there are already many stars now and not only Messi just.

It seems PSG signed Messi because of the Champions League. But, they have a great squad full of talented and experienced players. They shouldn't depends mainly on Messi. Rather, they all have to be cooperative if they want to beat Real Madrid. Although, Madrid is probably one of the most stabled team, their performance at the group stage showed how great the club is. Am also looking forward to watch the PSG Vs Madrid match, because the game will be super tough and interesting.

Messi is not a prodigy who has to depend on him but this requires cooperation from other players who are still experienced in the champions league and the PSG squad is not lacking in that regard, it is even said in the news that Neymar is ready to recover when the champions league has started because at this time it is still in his rehabilitation stage.
Certainly interesting, of course, this is a giant team from Europe that has a myriad of great players, how many people are looking forward to this match.

I think the most comfortable draws are Sporting - Manchester City, Salzburg - Bayern Munich and Chelsea - Lille. Because Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Chelsea all are highly favoured in these draws. And these teams are one of the candidates to win the title also. They would just like to put on a great show in these ones and threaten the other teams also. Chelsea are the last champions but I don't know if they can compete at that level once more.

Most lucky team on 16 round Champion League because get easy against because they will pass to next stage with weakness team, Manchester City will guarantee to next stage because faced with Sporting Lisbon, Bayern get lucky faced with Salzburg and Chelsea completed team get weakness against with Lille. Except Madrid will faced with PSG and Liverpool against Inter Milan as most competitive match because both team have the same chance to pass next stage. I think still have one month for all team to prepare for 16 round of champion league and everything could be happen with player composition later.

The PSG vs Real Madrid game is really an interesting encounter to look out for, considering the amount of valuable players to be present on that match day. But in term of game play, Real Madrid will have the upper hand undermining the PSG players, Real Madrid have a very great squad as well with young good talents, they old experienced players in the competition and a good coach to go with. PSG is a good team as well but in terms of performance and overall Real Madrid should be up there.

I love the champions league football so much, it’s unpredictability is insane, whenever there is a fixture, you know you’d be expecting exciting drama, and for me I think Real Madrid are in the best position to win it. They are a good team with a great manager and good players with a lot of champions league experience. They know what to do at some certain point in time, the likes of L. modric and T. Kross (midfield mastero) are familiar with playing UCL competition

Well, Real Madrid has a very good line-up for now, and the players are understanding each other, this is something beneficial for the team, it is a pity that their lifelong rival cannot be at the level, as before, however the UCL is growing its level, Spanish football is having a good face thanks to Real Madrid, its midfield is excellent, although I miss Real Madrid where a Sergio Ramos and a CR7 commanded him so they could reap more cups. If Real Madrid hires Mbappé, I think he will become one of the best in the world, ranking from 1 to 5 best.

Not only Mbappe but also Real Madrid have issues and rumor will get Haaland from Dortmund and become the next galaticos for Real Madrid in the next season, but need to focus on this season although Madrid success lead as first position on La Liga they faced PSG on champion league. There are not easy how to defeat PSG have many star player from Messi, Mbappe, Neymar and Ramos. But here mentality is talking more and Madrid always success defeat PSG trough champion league group stage and knock out, I see Madrid have potential for defeating PSG on champion league 16 round because with full team playing Madrid have chance to win.

Well, Messi is a star player and even though Messi left PSG I'm sure there are still many football clubs who want his services. Also, even if Messi decides to end his career that will also not be a problem, but if Messi still wants to play then it will be easy for him to be signed by other big teams if he still wants a new challenge in a different competition. Regarding the PSG match against Madrid itself, I still believe that Madrid will win, but it is also possible that PSG will win because both teams have players with a winning mentality.

As far as I understand, the new strain of coronavirus is more contagious and many clubs, including Bayern, have become victims of its infection, but it is also much easier to carry. Indeed, there is still a month before the first games of the Champions League playoffs and let's hope that, in the worst case, a new wave of the epidemic is now at its peak and then everything will go downhill. Therefore, it may even be for the best that there are so many infected football players now, as cynical as it would not sound. But then everything should be much better and the number of infections should be much less when the main part has already been ill.

unfortunately, the evil of these years has been the coronavirus
not only did it kill so many people but it changed our lives
if you remember in 2020 the championships or the Europeans have not been played
a real drama for those who work in the sector, but now the worst is over

Many players in Bayern Munich's squad have been infected with the coronavirus. However, I think they will be able to return to the squad before the Champions League match.

Yes, some of them were infected when they were on vacation including their captain, Manuel Neuer, and some other players. Even it has happened several days ago and they are being quarantined, it doesn't close any other possibilities of other players being infected.
I am sure that the club has their best ways and strategy to avoid this thing happening again, for we can see from several months ago, several players were infected.
The club should decide maybe such kind of more strict rules to the players and all management regarding the probabilities of Covid-19 effect, moreover, right now, there are several new variants that may be more harmful and easily spread.
Fortunately, the next leg of the UEFA Champions League is still about 1 month later, so the players should have been recovered and not quarantined again. But once more as you said, not only for Bayern but also for other clubs, this covid pandemic is still around us and they must be more careful not to be infected by the virus.

^ As long as a chain of new players doesn't get infected with the by variant, I think that Bayern will be able to get the full squad available before the next CL game.

As far as I know, their next match is in about a month and I think that's long enough for the players to recover from the infection and train and warm up enough before the game. Recently they had some unfortunate results and the COVID can be a valid reason for such result and I hope the COVID won't have any more effect on Football and the whole world in general.

I would say it did shake them up a bit. They are not suddenly a bad team, they still have the offense very well and they are doing fine but I would not say that they weren't shaken even a slight bit. In the end they are such a great offensive team that most teams do not end up attacking all that much, if you play offensive against them then you would be getting scored a lot and that is a risk most teams do not take against them.

Sevilla for example has like 5 goals less scored on them, even Barcelona which we have seen as a "bad" team this year got only 5 goals more scored on them. So I am assuming that they are not doing as well as they hoped for. Champions league however is a different area and Real Madrid is a team that knows this all too well. They won it more than any other team and they are just a great tournament team that ends up winning when it's elimination game.

If it was at the end of the season, It would be much easier to put up the defensive stats in games the Varane and Ramos played vs this season when they were away to get a clear picture.

The positive things that I recall Ramos brought in were team leadership and being a record goal scoring defender. But he would also often get booked, sent off sometimes. Real Madrid would also rarely get clean sheets.

Ramos' and Varane's departures don't seem to have shaken up Real Madrid a single bit. Maybe for Barcelona. They have been doing so badly they even had to end up in Europa but let's not rule out other brilliant side like Bayern Munich, Defending champions Chelsea, Liverpool etc

And when it comes to the Salzburg v Bayern Munich matchup, we can already consider Bayern Munich as the highly favourite side very clearly. Bayern Munich shouldn't have much difficulty in destroying Salzburg in both matches of this draw. Bayern Munich are even one of the most favoured teams for the Champions League title too. They gave their best against PSG last season but they still were eliminated. But this time, they might want to revenge on them in case they get a draw against each other again.

I agree that Bayern Munich is the big favorite in the next round against Red Bull Salzburg. At the moment Bayern is missing like 12 players or so because of Covid and the Africa Cup but we still have almost 5 weeks to go until the match vs Salzburg happens and until then those players will surely be back. The only question is if Bayern can prevent from now on to have more Covid cases. I think even if they are missing 4 to 5 key players against Salzburg for whatever reason then Bayern should still be able to advance, but once they are in the quarter- or the semi-finals they really need all their good players. I think Covid is definitely a big factor in this years tournament.

Many players in Bayern Munich's squad have been infected with the coronavirus. However, I think they will be able to return to the squad before the Champions League match. However, if a new player is infected with the coronavirus, Bayern Munich will have problems. However, Bayern Munich will win against Red Bullet Slazburg even if they play their second tier team. Bayern's second tier team is also strong enough. So Bayern Munich have nothing to worry about with this match.

The increase in positive cases of covid is likely to produce a lot of results that might come as a surprise and therefore, if Bayern Munich's situation is still out of control due to covid I think Salzburg can take advantage of that moment well. But anyway, right now we can admit that Bayern Munich is a strong title-winning candidate with Manchester City. I just hope things get more under control, because only then will we at least see every team able to play their key players.
