UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[KTChampions]

I doubt if Arsenal will be able to continuing playing in this form during the knockout stage. That is when we are going to know whether Arsenal are fully ready for what it takes to go for the champions league crown since they have won it before.
There is a big task ahead for Arsenal and I hope it will yield an achievement this time.

Much depends on how the preliminary playoffs and subsequent draw go. Let's say Karabakh, Olympiacos, Monaco, etc. won't be able to get into the 1/8, but there will definitely be some of the clubs ranked 24th to 9th. Who can compete with Arsenal? Atletico, City, Barcelona—I don't see anyone else. And there are a number of clubs that are significantly weaker than Arsenal, meaning it's safe to assume Arsenal is one foot in the quarterfinals. Then, they're literally just two steps away from the final.

No one knows for sure why Manchester City will perform so poorly against such a weak team. But I had high hopes for them that they would do well in the next few games. Guardiola is working hard to get the team in a good position and he is experienced but most of the players in the team lack confidence as we saw in the match against Manchester United. Despite having almost 70 percent of the ball in that match, they could not get a shot on target. It was a big surprise that they could not break down Man United defense.

Manchester City's attack, defense and midfield players are also doing badly. Especially the players in the attack line. They don't have any major injury problems, but they are still suffering defeats. Maybe because of lack of confidence or because they are tired. I don't blame Pep Guardiola, because he is an experienced and tested coach. Even in his presence, Manchester City is facing a disaster, it is very disappointing. They must play the qualifying round to ensure the playoffs.

Barcelona's victory yesterday helped them move up the points table. If they can win by a large margin in the last match, they may be able to qualify for the playoffs directly from the top 8. A defeat or a draw may force them to play the qualifying round.

Nobody is underestimating Arsenal this season. Mikel Arteta is doing a good job for Gunners this season. He's not relenting and coming out for the bigger win is definitely something to go with. Arsenal have been competitive this season, knowing everything they know now, they're up and running for major trophies. The uefea champions League is not for newbies but for the main competitors. Arsenal will up their standards and winning all round games with ease.

In this season, Arsenal cannot be underestimated, they always dominate every match, Arsenal this season is very fierce, no matter who their opponent is, 7 matches, 7 wins, 100% win percentage, in the English league they also dominate but lately their performance has decreased even though they have not lost they have got a draw

Arteta has taken the club to another level, they're the best in the Champions League currently, best in their domestic competition and still in several other competitions, I wonder what would make them win a trophy this season, if they fail to then Arteta has to more excuse and it won't be unfair it the board sack him.

 As for the Champions League, they might be doing pretty good but am not yet convinced of whether they'll win it, but with how strong their defense has become, they look very promising in that tournament.

This UCL season, it seems Arsenal is quite lucky and strong. Up to week 7 this week, they have not lost a match. Arsenal is currently in first place in the temporary standings. It looks like they will extend their unbeaten record until the playoffs. Arsenal will be playing against Khairat in the last match, and they definitely need to win. However, looking at the points between 3rd and 8th place, the difference is quite narrow. This situation means the teams that directly advance to the playoffs will still be determined in their last match. Another thing about Arsenal, they are very strong in this league and have not lost. In your opinion, are they the favorites to win the UCL this year?

I love how everything is now about Arsenal because for a very long time now we have been looked down upon and now we are popular that everyone is looking upon and this are reason why I'm just happy how everything is just playing out because I'm sure nobody imagined Arsenal to have come this far, and even me personally i did not expect arsenal to have maintained a good unbeaten record and arteta took is time to build that club and if eventually we win this trophies then that man needs to be celebrated with thinking twice because he has worked really had and his a smart coach also and its good that the management did not lose there trust in him it world have been worst for them because the club looks okay to me now.

You are talking as if he is at Real Madrid, where they win major trophies on the regular basis, and not Arsenal who didn't win the major one (not counting FA cup among them) for more than 20 years.

So no, even if he fails to win anything this season, I don't think that board will sack him. And if they do that, they are crazy because who can they bring that will get more out of that team?

[bastisisca]

Manchester City may have qualified but those losses mean that they failed to make it to the top 2 or top 4, which has an added advantage of playing the second leg at home.

Let me quote this, if I may

I think it will be Pep Guardiola's last year if he doesn't manage to get the team going well
He's been making promises for many years but hasn't been able to keep them, so i think both the team and the fans are tired of promises that aren't kept.

I want to be wrong but we are not in a good position

In this season, Arsenal cannot be underestimated, they always dominate every match, Arsenal this season is very fierce, no matter who their opponent is, 7 matches, 7 wins, 100% win percentage, in the English league they also dominate but lately their performance has decreased even though they have not lost they have got a draw

Arsenal has indeed performed better this season. At least this season, Arsenal's performance in the UCL is as good as their performance in the Premier League. in previous seasons, arsenal sometimes failed to maintain their best performance in all competitions. But this time it's completely different. because Arteta seems to be maximizing every game in all competitions with almost equal strength. What's truly impressive is that in the UCL this season, Arsenal has yet to suffer a defeat or draw. seeing Arsenal at the top of the table makes me think that this season, Arsenal truly deserves to be considered a favorite for the UCL title as well.

I picked some matches I wanted to play yesterday, but on second thought I decided not to. Tuesday's matchday results made me have a change of mind. Felt like it we might see another shocking results but it turned out to be different. Although, I am happy I didn't place the bet because I would have lost it. Atalanta was among the teams that I thought would win, and they lost to Bilbao.

You are saved from week 1/7 in UCL because not betting in this week many matches do not match in the sense of their predictions especially some favorites lose to underdogs.

Fortunately, I bet a small amount so even if I lose it doesn't matter because the small money lost doesn't burden my mind --- week 1/8 will be interesting as it determines several other teams to qualify, and I think other big teams are confirmed to qualify for the next round.

[Umulala-alala]

The first eight matches of the Champions League are almost over, with seven matches played so far. Let's look at some statistics after these seven matches. League leaders Arsenal have won all seven of their matches. One of these was against second-placed Bayern Munich. Bayern only lost to Arsenal and won the other six matches. Arsenal are the team with the fewest goals conceded in the league, having let in only two.

 In the list of top scoring teams, three teams have the same number of goals. Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich, and Arsenal are at the top with 20 goals in seven matches. They have achieved an impressive statistic with almost three goals per match.

In the top scorer rankings, Mbappé is at the top with 11 goals.

At the bottom of the league are Kairat Almaty and Villarreal.

The uefa champions league is a game of the champions, Arsenal has successfully played unbeaten also won the most inform club this season who are also playing unbeaten in their league which is Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich is still my favorite club to the title i see them as the most consistent club now, Mbappe will win the top scorer of the competition Harry Kane will finish second. Villarreal and kairat Almaty has nothing to offer.

[bastisisca]

Arsenal's mentality is being built to be resilient. And the benchmark is the Premier League this season. If Arsenal can stay at the top of the table until the end of the season, then Arteta's work will be a success.

Exactly, in my opinion he will be able to win the Premier League with ease, but more importantly he will be able to focus better on the Champions League, which is the current topic of discussion.
Iam convinced he'll go to the final, but i can't say whether he'll win the Champions League or not, it depends on the opponent.

Galatasaray will face Manchester City in their next match while Atletico Madrid will face Glimt. This will be interesting as Manchester City just lost heavily to Glimt. Will City be able to bounce back against Galatasaray? The Atletico Madrid vs Glimt match is also worth watching to see if Glimt will repeat the same example as when they defeated Manchester City.

Manchester City just needs to be at the top of the game when they play against Galatasaray in their final game in round one of the competition. Just how Galatasaray are in need of a win in this match, it is the same way that Manchester City are also struggling for a win. It will be a very fierce game but in the end the team with the best performance will win. Glimt have done well and I know that they will want to replicate same in their next game which may not be that easy but still worth trying for them.

Nobody is underestimating Arsenal this season. Mikel Arteta is doing a good job for Gunners this season. He's not relenting and coming out for the bigger win is definitely something to go with. Arsenal have been competitive this season, knowing everything they know now, they're up and running for major trophies. The uefea champions League is not for newbies but for the main competitors.

Arsenal are showing a very great challenge for the Champions league title and that didn’t made them to relent in their fight for the premier league title as well. Arsenal as a team have been very dominating this season and this is what is commended by anyone that sees Arsenal’s performance. The champions league is indeed not for the weak teams, and Arsenal are proving so badly that they’re not a weak team but a strong one that can get what they want by all means if they put in the effort needed for the game in order to prevail amongst others.

In this season, Arsenal cannot be underestimated, they always dominate every match, Arsenal this season is very fierce, no matter who their opponent is, 7 matches, 7 wins, 100% win percentage, in the English league they also dominate but lately their performance has decreased even though they have not lost they have got a draw

Arteta is a talented young coach who is behind all of Arsenal's current strength. although he has not yet managed to bring Arsenal to the pinnacle of glory, I am convinced that for several seasons now, all teams in Europe have realized how strong Arsenal is. The only thing lacking in this team in recent seasons is luck. Because Arsenal has consistently faced unexpected failures or losses in matches they should have won. However, this season, I agree that Arsenal has improved significantly. And yes, I hope they have better luck this season.

Barcelona has successfully defeated Slavia Praha with a score of 2-4. The Barcelona players worked together really well and were finally able to defeat Slavia Praha. Slavia Praha will likely find it difficult to advance to the playoffs because they did not win against Barcelona, but it seems that next season there will still be an opportunity for Slavia Praha  to participate in the Champions League again. In this match, Slavia Prague scored first, but Barcelona eventually responded with goals of their own, ultimately securing the win. It was unfortunate that Lewandowski accidentally scored an own goal, but fortunately, he also scored a goal, so even though he scored an own goal, it wasn't an issue because he also scored a goal. Olmo and Lopez scored well, but Rashford also performed well as he provided an assist in the match.

Now Barcelona must strive to play even better to secure a good ranking, as finishing in ninth place would not guarantee direct qualification to the Round of 16. Therefore, in my opinion, Barcelona must win and score many goals in the upcoming matches.

Eventually Barcelona have won the match and keep their hope alive for next round qualifications. Anyway the match was quite interesting because initially Slavia Praha were to strong and continuously putting a heavy press on Barcelona players and even got a initials lead but in second half Barcelona took the control of the match in his hand and after that they slightly rise their lead into 4 goals. Robert Lewandowski, Fermin Lopez were the two guys who dominated the entire match with pretty awesome performance. Fermin Lopez scored two stunning goals as well as Robert Lewandowski scored two goals 😅 one for Barcelona and other for Slavia Praha....

Now Barcelona have eye on their upcoming schedule and definitely it is very crucial match for the Hansi Flick side because it a matter of UEFA Champions League competition, and qualification is necessary.

What a finish of this round we just had yesterday, is gonna be the best last round since this system is active from past season, i mean do you look the ammount of teams which are gonna be playing for something in the last round? Almost every single team has something to play for in the last round, only a few teams are out and only a few more like Arsenal and Bayer are already solid on top 8, all the other ones needs the points and goals to climb positions.

We have seen some surprises in the 7th match yesterday, some top teams could not finish the match with a win. Next week is the decider, I'm looking at 16th to 24th, we can see only 3 points between them, they'll be fighting tooth and nail to keep that spot, not only that, 25th to 32nd still have a chance to qualify for the play offs, as I recall last season wasn't this tight. Seriously, for next week we have to be careful in choosing bets.

[Shineup]

We just hope Arsenal can sustain this performance till the end of season. Their chances of winning multiple trophies is increasing but we know how unpredictable Arsenal can be especially when the heat of the season sets in and coupled with the fact they are trying to grab multiple trophies at the same time. As it stands Arteta needs to be more calculative than he has ever been in previous seasons because he has the force he needs to win as much trophies has he can imagine. He should reduce the pressure against Kairat in their next fixture because those ones are already leaving the tournament so they might not play to win because they know it will not change anything their focus might be to injure has many players as they can just to reduce Arsenal chances of the winning the CL

I believe that they will succeed very easily, Arsenal is a team that will be able to do its job very well, clearly this is the result of decisions that have been correct over time, and all the fans who believe in them also know this well, Everyone knows this and this is important

They are now guaranteed to be among the top eight teams, and their final match will be against a very weak opponent. Perhaps the manager can use reserve players in that match. This will mean they play fewer matches in the Champions League, because the playoff teams will face two tough matches. Arsenal, on the other hand, will continue the Champions League qualifiers with less fatigue thanks to the advantage of being at the top of the group.

If I compare all the teams that are performing at the moment, then Arsenal is the best team this season. They are able to perform quite well in both the attack and defense departments and are in the last place. So if Arsenal competes with any of these teams, it is pretty sure that Arsenal will win, so the gambler will bet on the team. So I think Arsenal is the best team this season.

No doubt Arsenal is actually the more formidable team across Europe this season but Manny still seems not to agree to that fact I just hope they keep to this amazing form till the end because I really want them to win multiple trophies this season if possible a treble is not bad , but the problem here is can they keep to this performance to the finish? Because we've already known them to always drop form at the dying minutes of the league and another fear I'm having is the way Barcelona has improved in form I think that again will worry them no doubt.

[Adiljutt156]

Surprisingly, last night, Manchester City was truly embarrassed by a team like Glimt. Because in this match, Manchester City had to admit Glimt's greatness because they had to lose with a fairly flashy score of 3-1. I also don't know why Manchester City's performance could be like this, because basically in this match, Manchester City's players looked quite promising. Because in this match, Manchester City also played with their full main squad, so they should have been able to win this match.

But strangely, everything turned out to be the opposite, because even though in this match Manchester City really dominated the course of the match, but they were unable to capitalize on all of that well. Instead, they always made mistakes when Glimt players counterattacked, which ultimately gave Glimt an advantage. So, I personally quite regretted this result, because currently, in my opinion, Manchester City's position is threatened to be shifted and out of the top 8. Because the teams below them currently do not have a big difference in points.

Everyone was certainly surprised when they saw the final result of the match, but if we look at Manchester City recent condition, they have indeed experienced a significant decline in performance, this is due to many injured players. Of course, Pep Guardiola was very disappointed with this result because they were unable to win at Bodø/Glimt's home. But with so many injured players who could not appear in this match, plus in this match Manchester City had to play with 10 men due to Rodri's red card, it was very difficult for Manchester City to catch up on the goal deficit from Bodø/Glimt. The last match against Galatasaray was a decisive match for Manchester City to qualify directly to the round of 16, and I hope Manchester City does not waste the opportunity to win.

Bodø/Glimt football team played very well in the last match as they did 3 goals in the last match and stats of that team was not brilliant in this match but still they won this match at the end. The shots of  that team were low in this match which were only 8 and 5 shots were on target and possession percentage of that team was 35 percent in this match and their passes were less in this match. The shots of Manchester City football team were more in number and these were 15 and their possession percentage was great in this match and they tried to hold the football for more time but they could not do more goals in this match which was flop performance by that team.

Arsenal have been competitive this season, knowing everything they know now, they're up and running for major trophies. The uefea champions League is not for newbies but for the main competitors. Arsenal will up their standards and winning all round games with ease.

In this season, Arsenal cannot be underestimated, they always dominate every match, Arsenal this season is very fierce, no matter who their opponent is, 7 matches, 7 wins, 100% win percentage, in the English league they also dominate but lately their performance has decreased even though they have not lost they have got a draw

Definitely, this season Gunner is absolutely phenomenal. They are just pushing harder and harder for every single match, whether it's in a league competition or in a UEFA Champions League competition. Honestly, their performance smells terrifying because they beat the big team so easily. It is the last ever opportunity for Mikel Arteta to show up his competency otherwise Arsenal will think about his replacement if he didn't win any trophy....

Besides that here I will also mention that it is obvious that Arsenal performance is absolutely phenomenal, but in the UEFA Champions League there are also many other teams who still have the ability to compete for title such a PSG, Real Madrid, Barcelona etc. I think besides Arsenal these team also may consider as favorite candidates, but anyway, let's see what happens next.

[Humblevirus]

No one knows for sure why Manchester City will perform so poorly against such a weak team. But I had high hopes for them that they would do well in the next few games. Guardiola is working hard to get the team in a good position and he is experienced but most of the players in the team lack confidence as we saw in the match against Manchester United. Despite having almost 70 percent of the ball in that match, they could not get a shot on target. It was a big surprise that they could not break down Man United defense.

Honestly, it is really so hard to figure out what is going wrong at Manchester City that is leading them to perform like this sometimes. At the beginning of the season, we thought that Manchester City were not in good form because Rodri was out injured. However, recently Rodri is back, but they are still not performing like they did in the last three seasons.Even last season, when Manchester City were performing poorly, we thought De Bruyne and Rodri were the main problems. But when De Bruyne came back from injury, Manchester City were still not at their best; they just improved a little, and the same applies to Rodri.

To be honest, Manchester City have a great squad that deserves to be winning all those matches they have been drawing and losing recently. In their last Champions League match, I didn’t even think Manchester City would lose the game, especially after losing their domestic match before it.I am not sure if the problem will be fixed soon and if they will return to their best form, because this started last year. We expected everything to be fine this season, but they are still facing the same problem, and the problem is still unknown.

[SmartCharpa]

Arsenal are currently the dominant club in this competition, with an impressive series of 7 wins in 7 games.
However, the fact is that it is much easier to play games in the group stage, where even a few losses do not mean much, than the knockout stage of the competition, where 1 worse game means elimination from the competition.
The question of all questions is whether Arsenal can continue to play like this in the knockout stage of the competition?

I doubt if Arsenal will be able to continuing playing in this form during the knockout stage. That is when we are going to know whether Arsenal are fully ready for what it takes to go for the champions league crown since they have won it before.
There is a big task ahead for Arsenal and I hope it will yield an achievement this time.

That is the problem with Arsenal, no matter how well they play in the group stage,many people will still doubt if they will be able to maintain their performance in the next round. Arsenal has performed well since the start of the Champions League, and they have the mentality to win the trophy. Arsenal is one of the teams I believe can beat any club in Champions League this season, but they can disappoint whenever you trust them too much.

If Arsenal can still maintain this performance, I’m sure that they can go far to the final, but if their performance declines in the next round, I don’t think they will be able to win it. Because they have strong squad this season, Arteta rested some of his key players in their last game against Inter Milan, and they were able to win.
