Champions League 25/26

[Maradona37]

I seriously dislike them but I have Arsenal winning the CL, if not PSG. Their style is suited to European football more than the Premier League. They've got the strength in depth now that they never had before for a long time, plus some insane youngsters like Nwaneri and Dowman to further boost the squad.

I see why you would think that, but they have never won the European Cup (despite having better teams than they have now) and consistently fail when the pressure is on.

They're the perfect example of a club where logic says they will do well, but they'll let you down when it counts, every time. Was the same last season. People always predict them to win stuff, and they never do.

21 years and counting since winning the title, too.

Why are you speaking for him?

What is this a classroom?

He's not wrong.

Arsenal will be eliminated by a team like Dortmund or Inter

That's some pathetic trolling.

Barca job will be open in 2 seasons max, Camp Nou finished. Time to bring him home in 2028.

Cant see it unless he wants away from PSG more so than wanting that job.

A big advantage for PSG is the league they are in.

They can rotate players and keep them fresh and have little chance of not winning the league.

Bayen have that also.

EPL teams and Spanish teams cant do it nearly as much. EPL particularly as Barca/Real should be able to beat the dross in La Liga with rotation really.

It goes both ways. When you have a very strong side like they do now, they'd probably prefer to play in a top league.

Arsenal v PSG game last season was fairly close tie and Arsenal have improved.

PSG wont cake walk teams like some think.

EPL teams and Bayern are fit for them.

I can't stand them so would love to see them fail again. But making out they're shit and don't stand a chance is just childish patter.

It’s going to take a seriously off night or crucial injuries at a bad time to stop PSG. Half their squad is in its mid to late 20’s, going to be the team to beat for a while.

Think Man City or maybe Bayern on their best day can beat them. But yeah, apart from the thing about it being difficult to retain the trophy, they should be big favourites.

Nah they were dead against Super League etc.

Being in France winning and easier focus on CL suits them.

Arsenal look strong, but if you score first against them... they struggle. They play nicely when on lead.

That's how PSG made it easy for them. Always were in front on the board in the tie except for 9 minutes.

 

[Jair Ventura]

That's some pathetic trolling.

Dortmund and Inter have been to multiple finals since Arsenal last reached one

Do you follow football?

 

[MonteCuler]

Napoli lost 6-2 holy shit

Every team finds it harder when score first v them.

Arsenal will largely play the same way regardless.

Nice strawman - where did I say they were 'shit' and don't stand a chance?

I even said logically they should do well, implying they're a very good team. But it's a mental block they have. Plus I am consistently proved right in backing against them.

It doesn't seem like reading comprehension is your strong suit. Neither is not being brutally biased to anything that is English.

Bayern is class, City isn't on our level.
