    Gotta disagree about Barca. They beat Atletico pretty handily in the league twice, and are ahead of them, so they should at least be considered on their level. I don't think they'll win it, but they're also like 10+ games unbeaten atm, and that's with a lot of injuries. They definitely aren't first tier, but are also definitely not last tier.

    As a Dortmund fan, I can say it's kind of a weird year. We've been maybe on one of our worst looking Bundesliga teams we've had in a while, especially since this has been a pretty bad Bundesliga season. Excluding the win against Bayern Yesterday. A lot of the season has been us looking like crap against some of the worst Bundesliga teams, usually not losing the games, but looking horrible in the games, and usually tying or giving up a very winnable game.
    But then there the champions league, I haven't been able to watch too much of the champions league games for BVB this year due to them going on at a bad time for me, but the ones I can watch that Dortmund team looks like a whole entirely different team. They play amazingly, they actually look like a world class team that can compete against the world's best. I have not clue where that team goes during most of our Bundesliga matches, it's like it just appears in Europe and disappears in the league.
    It almost feels like night and day watching most of Dortmund's Bundesliga games this season, and just about any of our Champion's League games this season. I wouldn't be surprised if we make the final, but I don't want us to keep Terzic around any longer, nor does any other BVB fan. But if we make a final, not even mentioning winning it which we won't, I'm worried that'll mean we'll have to keep Terzic longer.

    Barcelona have higher chances of winning the champions league than atleti. You give too much hate to barca, if you'd actually watch their matches and pay attention to what's happening at the club, this is not the club we saw at the start of the season. The players have found their groove, the entire locker room has this new mentality. Not only are they contenders for the UCL, they still have a chance at laliga. I'm not just being a delusional barca fan, it is obvious that we are in this. "It's time to dream," Xavi said. It is necessary to be delusional. Only dreamers have the ideas to make their dreams a reality. Real Madrid's chances drop to zero when they have to face off against pep. The power of friendship doesn't win matches, and you can't buy good mentalities for your players.

    I see people are triggered that Barca are labelled pretenders. They are more likely to lose to PSG than win. Of the eight clubs, Barca and Dortmund are most likely clubs to get knocked out. And that makes them the easiest pretenders.

    All the teams in Pretenders and Sleepers are in the same bracket, so one of them WILL reach the final, so I think logically some of those teams need to be higher up the list, and some from the other bracket need to be lower down (to account for the probability of them getting through their quarter final matchup)

    I kind of agree with your take on most teams current status if looked at overall (even with calling Barcelona pretenders, a lot of people are saying they won the league last year but the truth is this year they've been pretty bad, I would have probably put PSG on sleepers though), the thing is, because of the way the bracket ended, one team between the 3 pretenders and the sleeper is actually going to reach the final against one of the "top 4" ones.

    I disagree that Barca are pretenders
    They are contenders
    And definitely better than atletico who they have destroyed twice this year and sit above them in the league
    Barca for me are favourites to be finalists
    Also the best thing for me is watching good freakin football and this year there are only 3 teams delivering it in the top 5 leagues
    Barca, Man City and Arsenal... and I'm a Spurs fan (we've also been entertaining but not as much)
    And Barca does a lot and should boast and brag about their young talents because they're seriously a joybto watch
    A 16 year old Yamal humiliated Napoli and Brazil recently
    He already has like 20 years experience as a 16 year old
    Who cares about goals
    When I watch Messi I don't watch him for the goals
    I watch him for how he plays
    I can see why he's the GOAT
    So what if Yamal doesn't score?
    He made a chokehold on La Liga
    He owns the league already
    And Barca is La Liga's Man United? 😂😂😂
    Yeah ok
    Ever since Franco died, Real Madrid lost its grip on spain
    Barca has been dominant in spain for the past 50 years and through thick and thin they've been winning la liga titles again and again
    Also saying thay Bellingham, Mbappe and Haaland have more potential than Yamal is crazy 😂
    Endrick and Yamal are the future of football
    Watch how they play
    The only player close to their potential is Mbappe

    Let me see if I understand you sir, being 2nd in Laliga and winning last season is a Pretender and being ManU for signing a player who produces a goal every 88 minutes, but a team beaten by 3 at home by such team, being now 5th (outside of Champions) is a sleeper? Dude I know we aren't favorites against PSG (60-40 I'd say) but you smoked some crack
