UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Abbatty]

Mayor of ogba you are right, some people are just saying inter Milan don't deserve to go the final that they should have allowed Barcelona to go to the final, inter Milan is a great club they did there best to make sure they reach the champions League final if Barcelona was that good they would have defeated inter Milan but they couldn't do that, so how are you people sure if it was Barcelona and PSG that played the final PSG won't score them goals more than they scored inter Milan.
PSG is a very strong team and we are seeing it now, and I believe they will still reach the final in next season champions League, and in this club world cup that is going on now there's every possibility that they will still lift it, because they are very inform right now.
As for inter Milan they are strong we can't say they are not because they lost the champions League title this season they tried there best and for the fact they defeated Barcelona to get to the final shows that they are strong and inform.

The fact that you just keep concluding already that PSG will lift the club World Cup and will still be in the next season champions league just have me mouth wide open. This is football and we have seen teams who qualified as best loser went on to win the tournament and we have also seen teams who is the least Infoam team in their domestic league went on to win the champions league. All I’m trying to say is that you can’t conclude in football.

PSG are doing well in the club World Cup and they are amongst the favorites to win it but I can’t say if they are going to win because there  are several big clubs in the tournament who are also favorites to win the tournament.

Looking at the squads that PSG currently has on ground, I think they can still be favourites for the next season champions league title also. A team full of young players is a team with big potentials. After winning the last season’s champion league, they will be on top of their game and want to have another win again this season. All eyes will be on them but if they really train hard and work together well as a team, they will turn to a force no team can be able to counter on unless they face a defeat.

We will have other favourites for next season as the season will start and see their dominance in their respective league games, but since the champions league competition is different, we have to wait to see their performance in champions league also before coming to a decision on the most preferred favourite teams for the champions league title. All preparations at the beginning of the season will be on how to escape the group stage by all teams involved which is very important for the success of each team in the competition when it begins.

I also think that they can still be the favourites for the Champions League title next season and obviously for the French title
Unfortunately we can't tell things as they are, ok i am a fan but i am also honest and i am also a gambler
So i still see them as the favorites

[Hanadawa]

PSG won the Champions League title last season and it seems that they are ready to fight next season with the same team they performed with last season but my question is will PSG be successful next season by competing with the team they competed with and succeeded with last season? The big teams could not do well last season for some reason but those teams will perform well next season which will make it difficult for PSG to win against those big teams with the current team they have. I think PSG does not need to change many players in the team but they should buy some players. If they recruit some players to their club then their team will be stronger next season than last season and in that case they will be able to compete against any team but it will be tough.

When a team successfully wins the UCL, it does not mean that they will be able to do the same thing next season. PSG is not necessarily able to beat the same team that they beat last season. If this were Ligue 1, I am sure PSG would be champions again. They are too dominant in Ligue 1. But it is different with the UCL where the contestants are elite European teams who certainly have great motivation to win the UCL. Many teams have made player purchases to cover their shortcomings in the previous season. And this is a sign for PSG that they will not face a team with the same composition of players as before. I don't know if buying new players is the right decision for PSG because for this season I think their squad is perfect in all aspects.

If we’re talking about PSG, we know they will likely go far in the upcoming UEFA Champions League. If for nothing else, they will want to prove that it wasn’t by luck they made it to the previous finals and even won the trophy. So, even if it’s just for the sake of proving themselves, they’ll have to go far in the league.

From all indications, the coming Champions League will be more competitive than last season’s. But let’s wait and see what happens.

Like you said, yea they may but next season will likely be unpredictable because the likes of Manchester city and other teams may improve in their performance and you know what that means, your points are very right, no doubt PSG will want to show case a better performance in the champions league next season to make people believe that the were actually the defending champions of the competition and that they didn't become the champions on a platter of gold, they worked for it but the truth is that we wouldn't actually know the actual result they will be getting in this competition in the upcoming season, as for the UEFA champions league being competitive next season as you said, it may but if am to say my mind as it is, I will say that it will be nice for it to be very much competitive after all it is worth it

With the new season, of course, the situation of each team will also be different. We can start to calculate it if the season has started. And we will see teams that have changed to be stronger and will compete in the Champions League.
There may also be teams that will be willing to not focus on their domestic league and choose to focus more on the Champions League. That shows how important it is for teams competing for the Champions League trophy. PSG will not be easy to win against again next season. Their competitors must also be getting stronger.

[Mayor of ogba]

i am definitely on the crest of a wave now, in fact i give PSG a positive outlook and i think I'll make some bets in the French championship when the matches start again.
In a certain sense, adding a PSG match with odds of 1.2 does nothing but increase the profit of my multiple bet.

Just be careful how often you add 1.20 odds to your bet slip because betting companies use it as a trap to cut gamblers games since they know a lot of gamblers will play big clubs to win a game when they are given small odds. Small odds have cut my game several times, and I have decided not to add them to my bet slip so that when my game cuts, I will know that it is big odds that cut my game.

I have no doubt about that bro, however for me the most likely to win even the Ballon d'Or would be Vintinha, because he is the player who won the UCL and also won the Nations League, what PSG achieved this season was sensational, I would like to see a PSG and Barcelona game, it's a shame they can't see each other at the Club World Cup.

Winning the Ballon d'Or come with a lot of PR. This is the reason why I consider Barcelona fans lining Lamine Yamal up for the Ballon d'Or to be highly delusional. Vitinha I don't doubt had a great impact for PSG and also for Portugal during the national league competition but he is far from being the winner. This is organised by French media and Ousman Dembele is French, there's no way they're not giving him that award asides that, he deserves it.

There are lobby jobs behind the scene but Ballon d'Or can be biased by international journalists and their votes. There are times in Ballon d'Or history that winners are very controversial and like a half of world consider the winners are not deserved this award. Yamal is very talented and with his excellent performances for Barcelona and Spain, he only needs luckiness to win a title with his national team and Champions League with Barcelona in a same season in order to be voted by most of journalists and win Ballon d'Or.

I believe that it is only matter of time until Lamine Yamal wins his first Ballon d'Or award and even wins it very convincingly. Yamal has enough talent and consistency to win this award in convincing way, not in controversial way.

[JeffBrad12]

Defending much more difficult than winning, yet i believe PSG still have the same chance to do the same next season. I remind you they have been leaving from a star player centric team to the a collective team. Kinda wrong when you assume they have no chance to do the same thing for twice.

defending is not easy, but I'm not saying that, very strong coaches say that
the most complex problem is that, attacking at the end has its difficulties but you just have to score

the defense must neutralize and if possible start a counterattack

Those things owned by PSG this season. They scored a lot, and had strong defense compared other participants in UCL. They have it all. Enough reason to still favor them become the most favorite for UCL next season.

Unfortunately we can't tell things as they are, ok i am a fan but i am also honest and i am also a gambler
So i still see them as the favorites

Yea, whoever wins the Champions League is always considered as favorite in the next season. A lot of people will always say this, after it has been proven wrong in the last four consecutive seasons. I don't see PSG as favorite next season in UCL because this is not Ligue 1, and we have some strong clubs that will stop them from defending the title successfully.

I think you've literally pointed everything as far as Ballon d'or selection is concerned. The Journalist involved in this selection are literally humans, and we've seen them made a decision that has raised questions several times in different award year.

I just realized that this Yamal-Dembele's Ballon d'or debate is slightly similar to that of last year's selection. Rodri had enough talent and also won trophies, but Vini won the trophies that we usually use in predicting the Ballon d'or winner. A slight bias from our angle, but the voters made the decision.

I think same question might also rise up again if Yamal ends up winning it. Of course, he did exceptionally well and won trophies as well, but we all are still interested in using certain trophies to make our own predictions, and the Champion's league happens to be the major trophy. To everyone right now, Dembele is already the winner. And as for Yamal who is just 17, he has so many years ahead, and he looks very much like someone that can be consistent.

After what you saw, do you think Inter performance deserved to enter the final at that time?

I know Inter Milan didn't perform the way we expected in the UEFA Champions League final, but that shouldn't make us forget the effort and hard work Inter Milan put in to beat their opponents in the UEFA Champions League competition and set up a final with PSG, so I am saying Inter Milan deserves to be in the final.

Inter Milian made the UEFA Chiampions league final so boring for us to watch, to an extent that most fans became disappointed while some even wishes it could have been Barcelona reaching the Final. If it was Barcelona vs PSG in the UEFA final,I bet you that game would have been the best finals of the century.  Truly Inter Milian played very well to reached the finals but what went wrong on that is still difficult for me to comprehend. The Inter Milan team all of a sudden lost confidence on themselves that they couldn't maintain and control the ball very well, it was as if they saw something in PSG that   got them scared and they start playing football like amateurs. With all their efforts to reached the finals, Inter Milian ended up disappointing the whole of football fans.

I don't see PSG as favorite next season in UCL because this is not Ligue 1, and we have some strong clubs that will stop them from defending the title successfully.

Defending the title is more difficult, especially since we are talking about the UCL trophy, where this competition is filled with giant teams in the top leagues, only one team has successfully defended this title and that is Real Madrid. PSG is still considered a favorite and may be able to maintain what has been obtained but it is not guaranteed. Madrid, Liverpool, Man City and Bayern Munich have made improvements so that next season the fight will be even more difficult for PSG, including Barcelona with Hansi Flick of course will try to win this title as a top priority.

I have the same opinion with you about Inter Milan performance at the final of UEFA Champion League final make us boring after easily defeating by PSG over 5 goals. Indeed Inter have performed well success qualifying to final by eliminating many top teams but their performance at the final very unexpected after can't scoring any one goal yet and have losses 5 goals. Currently at the final match, both teams not get problem with their main players but Inter how easily loss and become the first Champion League final team losses many goals.
Forget the bad final result in Champion League this season, Inter have opportunity upcoming season by performing quite well with new tactician after Simione Inzhagi leave Inter and join with SPL team Al Hilal. Wish new Inter Milan manager Christian Chivu giving huge impact for Inter Milan performace exactly at Champion League and perfectly if can qualify to final round back to back.

Those clubs they you mentioned above can be called favorite too, because they have all won UCL in thw past and would love to win it again. PSG will be carried away with anxiety and they'll not be able to put in much efforts like they did this season before winning the league. Don't forget that PSG has been fighting tirelessly so see hoa they can win UCL and it cams to pass. I believe another team will fight to win UCL next season

In last 25 years, only Real Madrid won 4 titles in 5 years with 2014 to 2018 during this time they beat Atlético Madrid 2 times Juventus and Liverpool so for me its never been easy for any team to defend title here in Champions League.

PSG won their first ever title which is good but if they are going to defend they need extra energy and good strategy because now may teams are already done their work for having better results which is surely going to be challenging for PSG which just lost their first ever game in FIFA Club World Cup. Many wills became in front as this is completely different, but things have surely never been easy for having wins in big events while all teams want to win and have honour at the end I am expecting Barcelona, Liverpool and Bayern Munich could be big challenges for PSG in coming season hopefully they could be able to keep their consistency and quality for having better end of their next season.

This is organised by French media and Ousman Dembele is French, there's no way they're not giving him that award asides that, he deserves it.

It's a certainty that someone from PSG will get the award, I think that's the most non-controversial thing. Yes it's a French award so it's expected that a player from a French team will get it, PSG won the Champions League after many years and had an incredible season. It's not expected that someone from another team will get it.
Who was the most important player at PSG, Dembele or Vitinha? I think Dembele's name stands out a bit more in the answer to this question. Without Dembele this team wouldn't have won the Champions League, yes Vitinha is also a very important player and has contributed a lot to the team, but I think Dembele is the one who stands out

Yes you are right, it will be very difficult for PSG to retain the Champions League title in the upcoming season. Because the other teams will not let them do so. The favorite teams like Barcelona, ​​Liverpool. Arsenal, Manchester City and Real Madrid are preparing themselves for the upcoming season and making themselves stronger. I believe that success makes a person lazy and failure makes a person stronger. So I will rely on the last season's failed teams who are the favorites for the UCL title.

I don't know if buying new players is the right decision for PSG because for this season I think their squad is perfect in all aspects.

It is very rare for a team that is successful in the UCL league this season to win again in the next season. Because many factors occur, as you said, each team has made big changes and has a greater motivation to win the UCL league. And it also often happens, in the next season the team meets the previous team can win, but in the following season usually loses. I also always have faith, winning the title is difficult but defending the title especially in the champions league is much more difficult.

Moreover, the motivation of PSG players is no longer as enthusiastic as last season when playing in the UCL league because their dreams have been achieved. The motivation of each team in one season always changes and is different, believe it or not it always happens. Just look at PSG just lost to the Botafogo team in the club world cup.

[Lida93]

Still too early to make any solid predictions but I assume the usual teams will be in the latter stages of the competition. The likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, PSG, Inter, Bayern Munich.

I hope Liverpool do better this season in it, we only lost on penalties to eventual winners PSG. We will be stronger now with Frimpong, Wirtz and Kerkez signing. I think we will sign a striker too. Arne Slot means business.

Due to all the surprises that I witnessed last season I wouldn't want to conclude on whom might get to the finals anymore or make any comment concerning any team but would rather wait to see how all the teams would fare, especially the new teams that would be participating in the UCL this season and I expect Liverpool to compete very well due to their recent signings which is aimed at strengthening their squad for next season.
