Who else is folding arms and believing Real Madrid to eliminate Arsenal from the UEFA Champions League this season? Well we should give Gunners every benefit of the doubt as we've already given Real Madrid from the very starts of the UCL. Carlo Ancelotti is centered on capitalizing his goal and that's winning the UCL trophy for side.
Me. I don't see a reason for Real Madrid to lose from Arsenal. I think no more doubt for them as they're just getting better. I know how good Arsenal in term of set piece compared to them, but we have Ancelotti and good squad. No more doubt on them if we're truly madridista.
As for Arteta, he's is a good coach, and have enough creativity in tactical creation. However, he's not comparable to the Ancelotti who is tactically geniuses. Impossible for him to compete with Ancelotti who labelled as GOAT of manager.
Yes, we will see Real Madrid will give a surprise in UCL when facing Arsenal, Real Madrid will likely win by defeating Arsenal. I think Real Madrid players do not need to doubt that they have many great players and also have Ancelotti, a coach who has a good career in UCL. The team's performance in healthy condition, there is no doubt that Real Madrid will be superior. Discussing Arteta, he is a good coach, and has enough creativity in organizing and making new designs for a team that is almost equal to Ancelotti, I also see both of them as the best managers and both have different tactics.
