I personally will not always be fixated only on Ancelotti who managed to get five Champions League trophies because after all, Ancelotti also only succeeded when he was the manager of top teams like Real Madrid and Milan. But, when Ancelotti became the manager of other middle teams and some were also still top teams in different leagues, but in reality Ancelotti did not even succeed in improving the quality of the team in other teams in different leagues. Therefore, I think whether Real Madrid will succeed or not in the Champions League this season, it still seems to prioritize team performance first and cannot rely on just a few parties or players.

But indeed, when it comes to the Champions League and Real Madrid it is like something that is difficult to separate. Because after all, even though Real Madrid did not have good results in the domestic league but in fact, Real Madrid always managed to get good results in the Champions League and even, managed to get the trophy too. But I think this season might be more difficult, because with the implementation of the new format then of course it will make teams like Real Madrid also get different challenges, so there is still no guarantee for Real Madrid to succeed this season.

Real Madrid just changes whenever they are playing in the Champions League, at least that has been the case for the past few years. Whatever happens in the league or other games, they just turn up by a notch in the UCL. Well, a lot of people did question Ancelotti's tactics, but it wins them games, right? So as long as you are winning trophies, all these questions just die down.

Actually, Ancelotti is a manager who has been really lucky at times, all the comebacks that they had, there were a great amount of luck involved in them. Yes, in football you need luck, but to get lucky every time your team is behind? That's some voodoo shit bro.

If you ask me about the upcoming season, I somehow think that they won't get lucky this time around. Something will happen, and they will go out from the UCL without reaching the finals. I can be horribly wrong, but I tend to believe they really can't make it.

Seriously, we don't know how lucky Real Madrid will find themselves in lifting the Champions League this upcoming season. It's hard to say whether they continue their winning streak of lifting the Champions League trophy again, as they have been known for. For the record, Real Madrid has been known for lifting the champions consistently; it all started in 2013/2014, till date; it was only in 2019/2020 that Chelsea denied them the lifting of the Champions League trophy, but every other season, they did that.

For this upcoming season, who knows whether Real Madrid might find themselves lucky to repeat the same thing since they have Mbappe to strengthen the team formation.
