Instead of 2-0, Arsenal won against Monaco by 3-0. Saka scored two goals, and Havertz scored the third goal. Arsenal has advanced to the third spot in the Champions League table because of the 3-0 goals victory against Monaco. Arsenal would face Dinamo Zagreb and Girona in their upcoming matches, although that will be by next year.

Arsenal cam for business and said it's now or never, it's really sad that Arsenal don't get what they really wish they could have, there are is this team that you just know by their performance that they are not winning this and that's the vibe Arsenal usually display in most their matches, not that I don't want them to progress but they are not taking the trophy.

It's very common for teams to struggle to get to the highest place so they don't get caught off by line but they are struggling and you can't struggle in Champions league this way and win the trophy, no way.

It was a dominating win for Arsenal as they over came As Monaco by 3:0 at the Emirate stadium in London yesterday night to move up higher at the champion's league table, it was a convincing win as they put back their weekend draw back to winning ways I really saw it coming as Monaco currently can't go toe to toe with Arsenal in their current form congratulations to Arteta and his boys as the forge ahead in the champion's league this season

It will be really difficult for Barcelona to go to the signage Iduna park  to win against Dortmund of all clubs because Dortmund at home can be difficult to beat as they have made their home a slather ground for many teams even Bayern Munich finds it difficult to beat Dortmund when they are at home,

Well, this is not an easy match for Barcelona. However, finally Barcelona can do it well, get a win at Dortmund's home, this is a very good result, Barcelona is very consistent in UCL and now in 2nd place, cool.


Dortmund actually managed to equalize the score 2-2 initially in the 78th minute, 3 minutes after Barcelona's advantage. However, this time Torres made it very good and ended the victory with another goal from him in the 85th minute.

Personally speaking I didn't really saw it coming as Barcelona over came all odds to go to the signa iduna park at the home ground of Burissia Dortmund with their intimidating fan's to win 2:3 away from home this is really commendable as this kind of results don't come often, This win has moved Barcelona to second place on the table it's really looking good for them at this season champion's league campaign. I think Dortmund deserved a point from this game but this is football so is who takes their chances that wins the game and that is what Barcelona did yesterday night they created allot of chances from the midfield I think the inclusion of yamal back to the starting line up made the difference for Barcelona in this game

No Arsenal fan would want to hear that I can understand that they do not give that commanding presence unlike other big teams in Europe but it's too early to conclude don't you think? Although we usually see the huge favorites take the trophy but we've also seen surprises before.

Lately Manchester City has a performance that often makes them have to swallow negative results, and that happened in their Champions League matches.

In the Champions League itself, this is the 3rd negative result in a row that they have achieved, and if we go to the English League, they also got it in the last few matches that were unable to achieve victory. Pep Guardiola must rack his brains to restore his team's lost performance.

Manchester City has only gotten 5 points in their total UCL matches. It is true that Thebes club is not back to its feet and the players are getting demoralized with their poor performance over and over again. I don't think that they will have hope of qualifying to the round of 16. Juventus is not that consistent but they were able to defeat City on a clean sheet. I don't understand what's wrong with City because most of their injured players are back.

Their morale is disturbed by the series of negative results they get, and like it or not, it will certainly affect their performance in the next match.

I don't think they will be this bad this season, because in terms of squad, they are actually not too different and also still with the same coach. However, one of the influences is the absence of their mainstay players, that's what I think is very noticeable.

I don't know about Girona, but Dinamo ZG are in pretty bad shape and haven't beaten anyone in the domestic championship or CL for a long time - so I imagine they will be easy prey for Arsenal. Although with this format of the competition there are a lot of strange results and perhaps we shouldn't write anyone off in advance.

Guardiola's squad is like a deck of cards, missing the aces but still in the game.
City is playing this season without Rodri, It's a tough situation without key players like Rodri.
The team can not play well without elements that made it possible to outsmart others are no longer avail
It's a big challenge for any team to cope with such a significant absence

So Pep Guardiola shouldn't have to rely on Rodri even though he is an important player there are still other reserves who can fill his void, what about De Bruyne? Although he is not a defensive midfielder.

This is the mess that Pep Guardiola is in, he still can't overcome it maybe he is still trying hard to get his team back to the way it used to be, but right now it is indeed in a slump.

It's not about Rodri but the entire team because the team currently lack creativity, motivation and hunger to play and win games pep has to try and bring hunger to the Manchester city team that was once dreaded by other clubs to come against there is something fundamental wrong with the team or maybe the players are tired of pep and they want him out of the team that is why they are playing this way, if not I don't see the reason why one of the best teams in the world just turned into a team where small teams can comfortable beat

[Rruchi man]

I don't see the reason why one of the best teams in the world just turned into a team where small teams can comfortable beat

I am thinking out loud here because if Manchester City are out of the race and Real Madrid are not looking very convincing, which team do you think is in more of a position to win the competition even though it is too early to start spoeculating?

I am thinking Liverpool has a pretty good chance.

Liverpool is a safe bet. That being said I'm not really impressed with the way the play in the last 2 games. Not sure what's the issue but Slot also comments that their standard has dropped. It's definitely too much to ask them to play like the way they play against City every week, but I'd expect more from them. Maybe some players have issues with their confidence, or maybe the fatigue gets to them, but who knows? I believe they have a much better chance compared to Madrid and City as of now though. Hopefully they'll improve.

About Liverpool I think there is no doubt. But we have to remember that every season there are always surprises. We sometimes favor teams that look strong from the start. But in the end, the one who makes it to the final is sometimes not the team we expected for one of them.

The only interesting phenomenon in the UCL this season is what happened to the 3 big clubs who found it difficult. Namely Real Madrid, Man City and PSG. For some reason, these three teams are currently struggling to qualify for the playoffs and are not one of the teams that have been confirmed to qualify for the next stage. This is a strange phenomenon this season.

Well some people say KDB is the key to Manchester City's game, and that's true because when they lost this player, Manchester City slipped a bit. But in a short time they were able to overcome it.

However, when Rodri was lost it was more pronounced, I don't mean to compare the two, because they both contributed. However, some people started to say that Rodri was the key to Manchester City's game.

Both player's are exceptional player's in Manchester city but let not compare because kdb has been the main engine room of Manchester city and I don't personally think that it's because of any of the players that they are currently struggling yes they players have there influence in the team but looking at the city situation critically I can say that they have been in their peak for a while and it's natural that they will experience this kind of situation so it will take a while before they will get back to their former glory, because even  if Rodri come back today Manchester city is going to still struggle

The team is not currently in form, that's the reality.
City’s depth is their strength, without the key players, even the best can struggle. Once those key players are back, City could go on a run. Pep's always been good at making comebacks.
A top manager like Pep doesn't give excuses, he gives solutions, and we all know the City team when all the players are available.
