22:46 As a Sporting fan, thank you for helping us correcting people with the name, I think this year people will know the name better than ever, we might upset some people like we did before but now we are strong as never been. SPORTING SEMPRE 💚
The schedule looks like: - 1 really strong team - 2 strong teams - 2 pretty strong teams - 3 teams that are too weak for the UCL Barça MUST be in top 8
@@Flowerkool You are spot on. I think Michael knows we, the nordics, unfortunately have more to look forward to in the lesser tournaments. So I'm just wanting him to hurry up :)
@@thetiklipsegod my team Bodø/Glimt is in EL and Michael's team HJK is in the Conference. I bet he will have some attention to those tournaments as well :)
I think At Real Madrid there is now the talk to win 4 CHAMPIONS leagues in a ROW. Amazing. They want to break their own record of 3 champions in a row. It won't be easy as there are powerful teams this year ..Bayern, Barca Inter , psg, etc.. Tough season for all. Unknown new format too.
Real Madrid will still beat Liverpool, even when the game is played at Anfield. Last time, they won convincingly 5-2 in what would be Jurgen Klopp's last Liverpool game in the Champions League at Anfield (at that time). Bayern Munich vs Barcelona was such insane, especially when you see the fact the current aggregate scoreline is 19-2 for Bayern (in the last 5 games).
So...a few observations: 1. You ranked both Atalanta and Sporting quite high, based on the fact they can both get a result (maybe a draw each) at home against Arsenal. If that holds true, then Arsenal should be ranked lower, especially with the away game against Inter. So you either downgrade Atalanta and Sporting, either downgrade Arsenal. 2. Real Madrid to get "23 to 26 points"? 😂It's 8 games, a maximum of 24 points. Math isn't mathing there 😂 3. The threshold for top 24 is more likely to be 8-10 points, not 10-12. P.S.: Yes, as a Dortmund fan, I could not be happier with the draw we got. No expectations for the away match to Madrid, at least a draw against Barca is way within reach playing in front of the Yellow Wall, and the other matches are by no means easy, but fairly winnable. We can expect 17-19 points.
As a Benfica fan, I think we maybe get a win. Bruno Lage came back, but the transfer window exposed the board and Rui Costa, very poor from them and the fans are demanding a change as we get closer to the october 2025 elections. No one seems convinced with the choice to bring Bruno Lage and there's a lot people leaving Rui Costa's board, so it's very messy right now. If I'm being honest, I think we won't win a single trophy this season, get third place and Rui Costa will lose the elections if a suitable candidate appears (I hope so)
Bruno Lage is back, Michael! I still don't know how good we're gonna do in Europe but I'm very happy since I always dreamed that him could be somehow our Alex Ferguson. One particularity about him is that he'd rotate the team in european competitions actually so we will see. Benfica's squad is much better than last time he was the coach, we can have a good eleven with subs so I have hope. The championship, tho... will be very difficult since sporting is too good now
In my opinion this new champions league format does brings the clubs more money, but it also takes away the chance for cheaper teams to make a run to playoffs. Greetings from Serbia, great video.
Arsenal are third no doubt. There is not a single team in the league stage aside from maybe maybe PSG who will give them trouble. In the knockout stage only Madrid and city can Challenge them
@@Captaint54 i am not so confident about it.. .lets come back next year and see if my prediction come true.. i had bought 500 quid for arsenal to either finish 6th or 7th....
@@jeremykoh4115 that is fair. Maybe can make a case that Arsenal is at same level as Barcelona Bayern and Liverpool and PSG behind City and Madrid. So can see 6th. Asides from them no one though
@@jeremykoh4115 Arsenal will have very favorable knockout stage as the league will be easy for us. Again asides from PSG the rest of the league will be easy wins. In the group stage once further along maybe Barcelona and Bayern along with obviously Liverpool City and Madrid can challenge us
Already looking forward to Sporting v Arsenal content from AFTV on which Portuguese Liga Nos side is butchered in pronunciation after 'Rio Avenue'...somehow I think Arouca is tailored made to be a leading contender. Got Sporting on 5 wins 1 draw 2 defeats= 16 points.
First off your math is wrong it’s 6 games not 5. Second of all half of those are friendlies and the only official games you’ve played against was Ulm a team in the second division. Then Wolfsburg and Freiburg were bottom 10 last year and you barely won against Wolfsburg. Season just started but saying Barca can beat this Bayern is not crazy.
@@Banegas88 I didn’t know that’s what you meant to be honest. I thought you meant Bayern last 5 games. Also what does that matter? The current Bayern isn’t the same Bayern.
18th for villa? I know thats gets to the knock out stages but are you actually mental? Villa will finish ahead of arsenal for sure in the league stage. My reasoning is 2 fold, one we are generally better than them, they only beat us recently with a massive slice of luck and before that we won 3 of the last 4. And reason 2, we have emery, the last time he was in the champions league with villareal, he got to the semi finals with a team far weaker than villas team. Just compare that with arteta who has only got past a quarter final in europe once ever and guess what he was knocked out by, emery... Emery has 4 major european trophies. you logic is flawed. Not so much about the other teams I do not know all that much about them, but I know villa I know emery and I know arteta and villa are far stronger than arsenal in europe.

Leipzig is a way better team then you think...just unlucky that they are always matched with city of Madrid in group stage and at round of 16th

Barça MUST be in top 8
It’s impossible to get 23, 25 or 26 points. If you wall your games you get 24 points. If you win 7 and draw 1 you get 22 points
CL is soooo boooring. The same teams who are going to the knock-outs every season. Waiting for the EL and ECL predictions.
No one forced you to watch
Let me guess, Scandinavian? Good luck playing Hearts.

Watch in a few years UEFA finna increase the teams in the UCL to 48 just like the world cup
Technically, the 48 teams format is used to happen before in the Europa League between 2009/10 and 2020/21 season.

They aint getting shitt against arsenal bruv
@@Coyg04-69 Maybe they are, maybe they aren't, point was, all 3 of them are very unlikely to reach such a high position at the same time.
The maximum points you can get is 24! How the hell real can get 26😂
yeah I was tired at that point....
Never underestimate Benfica!

I really don't get where all that confidence in Barcelona and Flick comes from? 6th or 7th place, mark my words!
I used to pray for times like Barca getting praise again🥲
This is exactly why I wanted Flick last season. I asked for him even in November
Finally a positive video lol. Just don't lose to Bayern again
Barca will still there true colors in UCL
Only dumb ones believe in Barca in 3-4 games

And Real Madrid slapped Liverpool 5-2 when the latter played at Anfield.
