Imo this is just setting up for another late-season-collapse by the main challenger of the season. If Bayern are 3 or fewer points behind with 3 matches left to play, they will again snatch victory from the jaws of (relative) deafeat.

I am not so sure about that. This Leverkusen team is a lot better than last year's bvb.

You guys dont know how happy I am. :D
Yesterday confirmed so many things I have been saying all season!

- Bayern got a lot of points in the first part of the season and I was the only one really saying that their performances sucked and Kane just kept bailing them out.
- Tuchel is so bad for loaning out Stanisic because he didnt rate him (surprise, surprise Bayern bought 2 emergency players this winter for covering their defensive line)
- He also decided to play back 3 for the very first time this season with half of the players not being good enough to be first team starters (Boey, Dier, Pavlovic) and also starting a not fit Upamencano while benching quality players in De Ligt, Kimmich, Müller, Guerreiro
- Xabi Alonso while also changing his shape did not sacrifice his idea of football, again proving how good of a trainer he is
- Müller has been of the best players of Bayern this season and Tuchel doesnt rate him at all

if leverkusen dont win this year then the bundesliga is doomed. 2 years in a row where teams would throw their chance to clinch the title against a very vulnerable bayern side.

Ivory Coast are about to win AFCON.
That's having finished 3rd in their group, with a 4-0 loss, and having sacked their manager half way through the tournament.

Well bayern is due to lose someday but it will be priceless if it is this year when Kane joins :D


The way this season started out to this. Remember when Kane scored like 2 goals a game on average?

i thought wirtz would be behind on the development stage given he tore his ACL two years ago but wow he's exceeded all expectations

also speaking of world class talent, did moukoko's development just stall ever since haaland left? or was his talent exaggerated because he was just bigger and faster than everyone at the younger age groups and now that he's playing senior football, is being exposed.

He strikes me as the latter, but it’s still early doors.

There’s an interesting tidbit about Erling Haaland in that he is a physical monster now, but actually was rather a late developer in that respect. So when he was younger he couldn’t just coast on his physical gifts and developed a lot of other gifts, intelligent movement and whatnot to compensate.

So the theory goes anyway.

The ideal footballer is probably someone who developed while being a physical midget and then grows to be a monster physical specimen. It’s like playing with the underpowered race and being good enough to compete, then switching to the OP one

All CL games today and tomorrow should be a given IMO

FC Kopenhagen - Man City 0:3
RB Leipzig - Real 1:2
PSG - Sociedad 2:0
Lazio - Bayern 0:1

Why is Sociedad losing 2-0 a given? They are playing really strong football and PSG is not a juggernaut anymore

You want a source for that or what? xD
Betting sites have Leipzig - Real a lot closer than PSG - Sociedad for example. In my book, Sociedad winning this is an upset. If you see it different, that's is fine with me

EDIT: Bayern also don't play top notch football right now and have some unrest with Tommy Tuch. I still don't see them losing this. Odds are about the same as PSG - Sociedad

Given is a bit too much but it is super likely that the games go in the way Harris1st said. If any of these teams would fail to deliver, I would pick PSG too but the rest...its easier to predict.

Man City are favs.
Real is in top form and Leipzig sucks as a whole concept.
PSG depends on egos and mood but should win this.
Bayern will win even due to luck. I dont know anything about Lazio though.

On paper none of these matchups are particularly close. Lazio is a mid table team this season and while Bayern has had a recent dip in form, overall their results are totally fine this season. Copenhagen might be able to squeeze out a decent result from their home game but there's like a 2% chance tops they're actually advancing. RM looks great this season and should handle Leipzig comfortably, Sociedad hasn't scored in either of their previous 4 matches and while 3 of them ended 0-0 I don't think they're gonna keep PSG from scoring. Sociedad-PSG still probably the closest one (at least on paper) because PSG is notoriously volatile. If you look at City, RM and Bayern, they're notoriously consistent.

All 4 are 70-30 or more for the favorite team imo. The other 4 matchups are a bit more even, although I think only Inter-Atletico is anything resembling a tossup.

Note that Sociedad's results the last few weeks are to be seen with a grain of salt - Kubo, their best player has been away with Japan

Is this another one of those season where Real should be eliminated every round but somehow is still in via luck and paying refs...? Come on

Interesting article from the Athletic talking about the extra Champions League spots up for grabs next year:

The Athletic article

At this stage, it's actually going to be Germany and Italy that get the bonus CL spots, not England. Mostly because Man United and Newcastle bombed out in last place in their CL groups. Spain are also in with a chance still. It all depends on how deep the surviving teams in each competition go.

When it comes to the remaining European competitions, Man United fans are incentivised to barrack for Liverpool and Man City, Spurs fans are incentivised to barrack for Arsenal
