I think they should get the League and UCL title this time. Last season they failed and lost to Lille. With the current players, they should be able to do that. But I don't know if they can? Besides that I think the arrival of these great players is a business factor. They seem to get quite a lot of income from sponsors and jersey sales. Honestly, I'm curious about Pochettino if he can make PSG solid and winner UCL this season but looks like this is his first experience playing at UCL. If im not wrong.

It is not his first experience in UCL, dont you remember that he was able to bring Tottenham into UCL Final in 2018/2019?
He has the most expensive team in this world with so many talented and popular players, it would be ashamed if he cant get at least a title with his expensive team.
What I doubt is about his experiences in managing a big team like PSG as he has less experiences in managing big teams.

I think this draw is what paris saint German -PSG- needed, I will be relaxed with players like Leonel Messi, mbappe, neymar, de Maria, sergio ramos and all their stars, that I would think am untouchable. But right now club brugge has humble the star stubbed PSG, in gambling I think almost every one would look at PSG to win a supplement to there game for higher odds, it now a wake up call for Mauricio Pochettino, the stars weren't bought to win the French league but to bring to paris the UEFA champions league.

Haaland is really unstoppable now. He scored one goal against Besiktas yesterday also. Dortmund got a nice 2-1 win against them last night. Actually, they would have scored more goals but after making the score 2-0, they tried to secure the win. Besiktas got some chances and finally scored in the extra time. But it was not enough for them to get a point here.

Erling Haaland scored again and he has 21 goals in Champions League. 25 goals totally in Europe and 21 goals are from Champions League. He will beat Nisterooy, Inzaghi, Raul soon in top scorers of Champions League

He is too young now and has a long career. Moreover, he will join bigger clubs and score more goals there. He is a superb goal machine in any club, any national league and even in Champions League.
it is a fortune for dortmund to have a player like haaland, besides being young and talented, haaland is also a player who is able to see gaps in creating goals against the opponent, of course it is very natural for haaland to be a target from big clubs in the transfer market this season even though he is priced with a fairly high price, yesterday goal against Besiktas was Haaland ninth goal for Dortmund this season, and also it was Haaland 21st goal, in only 17 appearances while playing in the champions league, I think if haaland can continue to be consistent in scoring goals Of course he can surpass Ronaldo's and Messi goal records later.


from the statistics that I read on espn, in fact Halland's goal achievement in the champions league is still much better than lionel messi and ronaldo, that's because halland has managed to score a total of 21 goals in the Champions League and amazingly again, Haaland only needed 17 appearances to reach the total these goals, while Lionel Messi was only able to score 6 goals from his first 17 Champions League matches, as well as Ronaldo who didn't even score in his first 17 appearances in the Champions League and this clearly shows that Halland is much better in terms of scoring goals in the champions league compared to ronaldo and messi,
I think he will be a strong candidate to get the ballon d'or.

Although Mess-Neymar-Mbappe seemed to be very strong players, they were not very effective. Together they could not adapt themselves. In yesterday's match, I expected a better performance from Neymar. But he was almost inactive. However, this is the first match of these three players together. They need time to stabilize. Maybe they will play better in the next match.
Messi-Neymar-Mbappe need time to build a strong chemistry so they can connect well. Like when Neymar and Messi were still playing with Barcelona, At that time the barcelona front line trio known as MSN needed time to understand each other. Until finally MSN became the scariest trio, They were able to carve out a new history for Barcelona as the most prolific trio that Barcelona had ever had.
Yes, facing Club Brugge is their first appearance playing together, so they need time to work together well on PSG's front lines, with the experience they had (Messi and Neymar) while still playing at Barcelona, it will be very easy for them to become the most feared strikers when Messi-Neymar-Mbappe play together.

We had a few surprising results. One of them was the draw between Paris SG and Club Brugge.

Yes, I was quite surprised by this one. PSG should beat just about every team in the world, and only really be challenged by a very few, the likes of Man City

I don't really think that PSG is the strongest Team in the world of football at the moment. Yes, they have an amazing offense with mbappe, neymar and now also messi but 3 huge names do not automatically equal a world class overall team. While i think those 3 players are definitely great and if all of them are in good shape and motivated then every team in the world will get problems, defending them.
Those 3 players will almost do nothing at all to support their own defense though and if you have a team where 3 players are not defending at all, then it is very hard to play successfully against strong teams.

However I have to say that the Man United result is a bit of a surprise, but not a huge surprise. It was inevitable that Ronaldo would score, he always does... but Man United have weaknesses, and the signing of Ronaldo does nothing to address them. He's a great goalscorer, but he doesn't contribute much outside that... his general lack of involvement is well known, and will likely be detrimental to Man United as a team. I understand the signing from an emotional standpoint, but logically it makes little sense. I don't think he makes them a better team.

Liverpool - Milan was a really great game, full of good goals and excitement. Liverpool was way better and fully deserved their win but Milan took advantage of the brief moments they had and scored 2 really nice goals.

Regarding PSG - I watched a part of the game later and they were horrible. Poch said that building a team takes time and he is correct but when you play against a team whose whole defence is worth less than Messi's 6-months salary you simply have to show that the individual quality alone can win you the game.

We all have huge expectations from PSG for this season and they will have to show much better performances to still be considered among favorites to win the CL.

After the matches played yesterday in the Champions League, the scores were revealed. We had a few surprising results. One of them was the draw between Paris SG and Club Brugge. Another was Moldova team Sheriff Tiraspol's 2-0 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk. The most enjoyable match of the Champions League was undoubtedly the Manchester City-Leipzig match. There were 9 goals in the match and Leipzig's Nkunku scored a hat trick. The excitement will continue with the matches to be played in the European league.

Another very competitive match of the night was Liverpool v Milan. They have a really great history in this tournament against each other. After so many years, they played against each other and they will play again in San Siro. And we watched a great match which I should admit. Both sides got ahead in the match but Liverpool were the side which won the match 3-2. I still like the performance of each side.

What an insane performance from Manchester City tonight! They finished Leipzig by a huge 6-3 score. Leipzig got a late red card but it was not very affective on the score. Manchester City deserved every inch of this win. And the result didn't surprise me actually as Leipzig were demolished by Bayern Munich 4-1 before this match also. They were already out-of-morale.

Matches like these are the perfect show for football fans, but a nightmare for both teams' coaches. I think it's obvious why this is a nightmare for the losing team, but for the winning team to concede 3 goals in a home game from an opponent considered to be an average team is rather unpleasant. I don't think that after such matches the goalkeeper and the defense of the winners feel completely good.

Goalkeeper Courtois was instrumental in Real Madrid winning the match. Moreover, the defender's Nacho and Carvajal played well. The Inter Milan players have made a lot of good attacks. Courtois has successfully saved all of them. I also like the gameplay of young Vinicius and Luka Modrich. However, Real Madrid has played very well against the strong Inter Milan. This is certainly admirable. Coach Ancelotti has done his job well.

I slightly agree with this. Courtois has saved many good attacks. However, the players of Inter Milan have performed better and attacked more than Real Madrid in the entire match. Rodrygo's goal in the 89th minute was excellent. But I expected a little better gameplay from Benzema. I did not like his performance in this match. The team expects more from him in such an important match as he is the only regular scorer of the team with this.

Yes, it is very difficult for Leipzig. Because they have also lost to another top team in the Bundesliga (Wolfsburg, who are currently in first place).
But still Leipzig played well yesterday and didn't give up. After all, they scored 3 goals themselves against Manchester.

I totally agree with you. Club Brugge played great. And they deserve this point. However, despite collecting all the star players in the world, I still can't say that the PSG team is strong. Everyone is the best in the world as a player but they are not as good as a team. Mutual understanding between the players is not good yet. If there is no good understanding between the players, it becomes difficult to win the match.
Brugge played exceptionally well, dominating the expensive French cub. Every PSG player should feel the same. To PSG, this match is just a nightmare. It's too bad this team, which had Messi, Neymar, and Mbappe, couldn't win. As a side note, Club Brugge lost their crucial two points. Meanwhile, PSG team has not been found where it is supposed to be.
To be honest, I didn't watch the match, because I thought it would be a very easy match for PSG, especially now that PSG has a squad filled with the best players in the world, but I was wrong in judging it, from the available statistics PSG controlled the ball almost 64% during the match, but unfortunately Club Brugge was more able to create many chances by taking almost 16 kicks with 7 shots on target and this is very different from PSG which was only able to create 9 kicks with 4 including shot on target, of course it was really a bad first game for PSG.

Erling Haaland scored again and he has 21 goals in Champions League. 25 goals totally in Europe and 21 goals are from Champions League. He will beat Nisterooy, Inzaghi, Raul soon in top scorers of Champions League

He is too young now and has a long career. Moreover, he will join bigger clubs and score more goals there. He is a superb goal machine in any club, any national league and even in Champions League.
It's good to know that but I personally don't really care about it so yeah, I think regardless of the number of goals a player gets the most important thing is the record for the winning team. Having a high number of goals or a lot of goals will certainly be good to improve the player's career itself but not necessarily he managed to provide consistent achievements for the team, at least that is my view and I think it can be important or not. Anyway, Haaland still has a long career path that doesn't necessarily mean he will continue to get physically fit, because every player will certainly be prone to injuries and hopefully Haaland can keep his performances good and safe.

I watched Beşiktaş-Dortmund match yesterday and felt bit bad about Beşiktaş. Beşiktaş started the match exceptionally good. I mean match felt like it could be competitive and I even thought Beşiktaş could win. But Dortmund obviously had better players, Beşiktaş defenders except Rosier aren't on Champions League level. Because of injured players like Vida, they came up on pitch with sub defenders.
Also Atiba which is really old now showed his age. He is too old for high level football.
I congratulate Dortmund but they will have tough time with Ajax for sure.

Besiktas started the match very well but the opponent is Dortmund here. Their team is enough stable and they have a talented strikers. I expected the match to be one-sided. Dortmund led 2-0 until the 90th minute. But the players of Besiktas have performed very well. At least played better than my expectation. Although they could not score more goals, but they made some good attacks.

I think we've seen time and before that stars don't just win you everything. In fact, PSG already know this. They splashed billions and yes, they got the league titles and cups but champions league, this is the prize they want so badly and they only reached a final.

Poch knows already the deal, he needs time to glue the stars together, he said it also himself post match.
