Not all league games go as desired. [s]Didn't City lose at home to Crystal Palace and draw away against them? Are you now going to say they'll lose to atletico because of that?[/s]

Just like your first sentence, not all games go as desired simple.

Agbegbaorogboye:


A Daniel has come to judgement

What mistakes if I may ask?

Playing defensively the first leg.
Granted Carlo has never had in his tactical bag all out attack but that is in the DNA of Real Madrid.
They defend by attacking and the present first squad is entirely geared towards that.
If Real Madrid will not play its game against Chelsea, it will certainly lose.
Unlike PSG, Chelsea has way too much experience in defense.

Agbegbaorogboye:


Chelsea don't have any creative player and they struggle in front of goal. These two qualities RM have in abundance presently. Chelsea only have the luck of being able to be on their toes for 90 mins doing the same thing of pressing the opponent and pushing the ball around. They post no serious threat to RM.

Instead they should be worried about RM's explosive forward. The game will certainly be different from last season

that was how we player last season and we scored them 3!! Like I have said chelsea will trash them as usual..... We will see..

Agbegbaorogboye:


Sorry sir. Two players shouldn't make a team. Madrid won PSG without Casemiro and Mendy, two very important part of the team.

Different leagues but tough opposition nonetheless.

League performance is a pointer to the reliability of a team.

You just set a trap for yourself. Two players shouldn't make a team as said by you. Agreed! But do you know some players show more impact in a team than the other.

If Vinicius and Benzema, you are idolizing, are not part of Madrid's Squad, what will be the status of the team?

Agbegbaorogboye:


This season, Vini. The stats don't lie


Howver, Sterling is not a Chelsea player so I don't see why he is a part of this convo

What I am trying to point out is that if James could pocket Sterling who was very hot last season, then who the heck is Vinicius? Remember, the same Vinicius had faced James and Chilwel before.

Agbegbaorogboye:


Your false nine is Kai Havertz who is himself not such a pleasure to watch any day

So forget all this talk of being unpredictable. Where r you on the league table with your unpredictability

Not such a pleasure to watch! Your comment is very laughable! It is obvious you are being sentimental in your analyses. Undermine Kai Havert at your own peril!
This Month premiership player of the month winner if there is no conspiracy.

The reasons behind Chelsea's current position are very obvious.
1. Our best wingbacks are absent
2. We bought a striker thinking he would end our attacking problems but reverse has been the case. If we had chosen the false 9 formation we used last season when Tuchel took over, we could have a competing points, if we re not at the top of the table.
3. Chelsea is facing lot of crises now.

Totally agree

But I'm sure you can forgive Don Carlo for being so conservative against PSG. Who wouldn't with the vast array of talents at their disposal

Besides, it was a thin score line that gave us life at all coupled with removal of the away goal rule

However, I'm sure he knows Chelsea too much to be so careful with them

Last season, you only had to worry about Benzema in attack. This season, you have to worry about Vini, Benzema, Asensio and the impressive Rodrygo.

You'll see

The team will suffer definitely. But it should not be an excuse for losing. The team is made of 25 players not 11

BabaIbo:

And what's special about them that Liverpool can't handle them?

They are not even formidable as they were few seasons ago.
They were defeated last season, they will be defeated this season.

You can only tell that to teams like arsenal, Man Utd, Barça and Co, not teams like Liverpool, Man City, and even Chelsea.

Okayyy

Ooh I see. Sterling was already on the bench last season before Pep did the unthinkable by drafting him into the starting lineup for that final. It was a mistake on Pep's part as it gave away his ace for the game.

Vini is not like sterling though. He is enjoying his best moments and very high on confidence. James pocketed sterling because sterling felt the pressure of being drafted into a final match as an obvious answer to the drubbing his team has been getting from same opponent that season.

Vini does not have such weight on his shoulder. if anything, he is just enjoying himself and contributing as he can.

So don't expect Vini to be a walk in the park for your James who is at best average with speed like Kyle Walker

Villareal can't knock out Bayern in case you must know. Not Liverpool, City or Bayern. Maybe Atletico, Benfica.

loll Villarreal are well drilled but bayern might do them just by having better players

Exactly! Villareal can only win by a small margin or by a hare's breath. Only Juventus got embarrassed by them.

Havertz?!! What exactly does he do anyway?

I don't think he can compare with Bruno, De Bruyne, Diogo Jota.

At best he is just an average player doing his bit

I agree. That's why I said football at that stage is more about experience and mental strength which PSG lacks. Chelsea at this moment cannot boast of being better than Madrid at the two don't you think?

Bro Chelsea go beat Madrid, moreover Tuchel has never been beaten playing Madrid, go and check the stats. What crises do Chelsea have? Chelsea have won all games straight since Abraham saga and you are talking about psychology.

Agbegbaorogboye:


I agree. But it is doable

Very doable.

Very very and it will take a top tactician like ancelotti to do it.Madrid will have to either win at the bridge or avoid defeat

noble2faith:

It is easier to pocket sterling than vini.sterling is one dimensional, predictable while vini is not

How many times has he played Madrid?

Where was Tuchel when Madrid was wining back-to-back-to-back UCLs

� Thomas Tuchel has faced Real Madrid six times as a manager and never lost

� DORTMUND 2-2 Real Madrid
� Real Madrid 2-2 DORTMUND
✅ PARIS S-G 3-0 Real Madrid
� Real Madrid 2-2 PARIS S-G
� Real Madrid 1-1 CHELSEA
✅ CHELSEA 2-0 Real Madrid

You can check the stats yourself, all these argument and quoting people up and down I promise you Chelsea will qualify and please if I call you out that day make sure you respond because I remember you did the same last season.

Well, Zidane was coach on the three occasions. He will face a different team this time around. Last season, I don't remember saying Madrid will win last season. I'm standing by my prediction. Bookmark this post and quote me
