La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[hahay]

The Catalan press is saying 5 players for Barcelona are about to.make the return of Fati,Dembele,Pedri,Aguero,Alba from injury. "Koman now has all the players during October," .
Outwardly, good news for Koeman, because he can play the way he wants, but in his heart there is "the horror" because the failure in October has no excuse or justification!

I think  that with tge current financial situation for Barcelona they are going to have to keep up with Koeman despite not achieving tge bare minimum results awaited from him.

Yes, instead of wasting more money to replace Koeman, I think it's better to give Koeman more time or at least until his contract runs out. Achievements can still be earned over time and I am aware of the current situation of Barcelona with a key player left and the crisis going on, this case will certainly have a negative impact on the team but that doesn't matter. Barcelona just need to accept the harsh reality during this process, I'm sure they will improve this situation again and achieve the expected achievements over time.

I am really surprise at Barcelona and their form this season,I never thought the departure of Messi  will have so much influence on them to that extent,I just felt they will be missing him,but not to the extent of this poor form and loosing matches this way.

The return of those players we are talking of,we are not yet sure whether they will be able to change the situation at the club right now,but let just hope that they are able to play well as a team,and make things change for good at the club.

Good news for Koeman because October waiting for many important match exactly on champion league stage where Barcelona should win left four match if want to pass knock out group. I think enough with many bad result from Barcelona and now they have to wake up and play well on every match. Still have chance for Koeman right now to keep his position on Barcelona because many rumors Xavi Hernandez will return to club replace Koeman position, if Koeman still failed just waiting time for him kick out from Barcelona.

Like it or not, Barcelona must keep Koeman this season, because Barcelona's deteriorating financial condition will certainly get worse if they have to pay compensation to Koeman for the dismissal, besides Barcelona will be very difficult to get a good coach quickly this season and reportedly Laporta  will give Koeman the opportunity until the end of this season to be able to lift Barcelona performance again.

I think that Koeman will stay. Because as we know that Barca is in great financial trouble and sacking Koeman and getting a new coach, all of these require a hefty amount of money and I don't think Laporta is ready to spend that amount rather save that for getting a new player in the next transfer window. But it is good news for Koeman as he will get all the players and now he can try new tactics or strategies and have a look at what works best. Ansu and Aguero could be the solution to Barca's goal problems.

Barcelona boss Laporta finally put an end to the speculations about the probability that Ronald Koeman is going to get sacked after getting very disappointing and embarrassing results. Laporta said that whatever the situation is now, Ronald Koeman will remain at the club. This must be really surprising for Barcelona fans especially. Because everyone was expecting the board to decide for Koeman's being sent away. However, Laporta made a statement that was indicating completely the opposite.

That is the right of management and Laporta, but I think many fans will be disappointed with his achievements. I think Koeman's initial move was wrong, by selling a lot of core players. Their sale was the cause of Barca's poor form earlier this season. If this is their decision then the fans can't seem to do much. Because I also agree that achievement takes time and can be obtained with money if management is able to pay for it.

Yes, it seems that you have to be patient for the Barca fans, maybe when they will bring in a star player in January.

I agree that it was really bad for Barcelona to lose their most important players. But on the other hand, they needed and still need a lot of money to make their financial condition normal. Otherwise, really big financial problems are waiting for them in the future and they may come across unexpected consequences too. If Barcelona weren't in a terrible financial condition, they would have a really strong lineup and they wouldn't be this much bad. After they make things better, I believe that Koeman will start bringing qualified players to the team.

Whether you accept it or not, this Barcelona crisis won't end with a coaching change. It will only get worse if Koeman is changed. I don't know how many months Koeman has left on his contract, but Barca should give time to Koeman and save the money to go all-in in the next transfer window. Now that Aguero is fit I guess and I heard that some other injured players are also making a return, their goal drought should come to an end. Aguero and Ansu and Memphis have a huge responsibility on their shoulders.

The current view in the table is quite interesting. Real Madrid are the leader. But they are sharing the points with Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad both now. If Sevilla won against Granada, there were going to be four teams with the same points at the top. Maybe this shows that we will watch a great competition for the title among more than two teams. But it is still early to say this, I know.

I agree Barcelona has lost their key player. But Messi was in the squad last season. Were we satisfied with Barcelona's performance last season? The previous season we saw the poor performance of Barcelona, ​​this season they are even weaker. Real Madrid has lost their two main defenders. Their defense is also stronger than Barcelona. There are a lot of talented players in Barcelona. The main reason Barcelona is not playing well is because their match strategy is not very good.

If you look at his statistics, Koeman used to be a great player, he has won many titles with the club and titles for himself. Before coaching Barca the last time he won the league was with PSV in 2006/2007, after that he won another title with Valencia Copa del Rey, Az Alkmar in 2009. And he had coached the Dutch national team but also did not last long. So actually if you look at these statistics there is nothing special for Koeman.

It's too early to tell. The teams are not yet in optimal shape. The composition of the leaders can change at any time. It will become clearer in the middle of the season.

After Suarez left first and after that Messi because of the regulations then this is a deep ruin for Barcelona, then what is the use of Kun Aguero after coming to Barcelona and wanting to play with his compatriots Messi on the other hand Messi has to leave because of the regulations is this a waste of their money?

Kun is a great player too but in past 3 years he got many injuries and can not play too many matches. I think if he is healthy, he can contribute for Barcelona but for now he is a failed transfer for them.

At the core of Koeman's fault in my opinion was to throw away Barcelona's mainstay players when he arrived but Koeman couldn't balance his squad with his own tactics.
It also takes time if you want to buy talented players because currently there is still a crisis.

Don't blame on all Koeman. With what happened to Messi, do you think what happened with Suarez is only because of Koeman? I think it has more reasons from the club, and Koeman is part of the gang that forced Suarez to leave.

Actually, I want to see Kun Aguero play in Barcelona, will he really be brilliant with his new team now with more contributions or has it been difficult for the last 3 years to get back up?
I also think that Kun Aguero is a failed transfer in Koeman's eyes.

I wouldn't blame Koemen completely giving him time to fix his team and Laporta have trusted him to stay so there may still be changes after a massive evaluation.
I know more fans will be fed up with Koeman's current performance.

La Liga currently looks more varied because the teams that usually dominate La Liga haven't played as they should (especially Barcelona). It is possible that this will only happen at the beginning of the season, but this is an opportunity for other teams to secure their position or even aim for the highest position.

Even one of the promoted teams from the Segunda Division (Rayo Vallecano) has pretty good points. So I think for this season, La Liga will provide an interesting spectacle and maybe there will be some surprises.

Me too man, me too. I'm just closing my eyes mainly now, just want the pain and suffering to pass. I'm very happy with Depay of course and then I know my hero Fati will grow up, but we do need someone with a real killer instinct to come and show us how to score again.

And if that man is not Aguero then we have no one left in the box.

It is possible that this will only happen at the beginning of the season, but this is an opportunity for other teams to secure their position or even aim for the highest position.

Atletico Madrid have a best squad and they have good combination between old and young players. Real Madrid don't have too bad squad but they are unbalanced between old and young players.

Barcelona are the worst because their old players are in downside and young players can not carry the team.

The common of three clubs are unstable performance and their instability makes La Liga is interesting and unpredictable.

This is correct. We have seen Barcelona's financial crisis. That is not the absolute reason they are performing badly. Even with the return of some notable players, I still see Barcelona struggle to win matches. The pressure is created already. The pressure of playing without Messi, the pressure of consecutive UCL loss, etc. I think Koeman has lost his strategy or confidence. A new coach will definitely introduce a new spirit in the team for now. I don't even understand how bad their financial problem is for now.

[KTChampions]

Atletico showed a great result vs Barça defense. With such a defense it is impossible to claim any trophies, even for such a grandee.
It looks like this season Barça will experience the recent plunge of Milan.
I hope this season will be enough for Barcelona to purify and show a good game next season, in this case the result will come a little later...
I understand that judging by a couple of matches is not right, but why can their game get better anytime soon? I don't see an answer to that.

Atletico now shares first place with Real Madrid which lost to the Catalan team, i think in the next tour they are likely to take revenge.

Barcelona can improve its game, but not as much as its fans would like - for more it is necessary to strengthen the roster (and not by average players, but by players who have offers from other top clubs). In turn, for this Barcelona needs to deal with its debts (in the region of 1.2-1.3 billion euros). I think that in the short term this is unlikely, maybe it will be realistic if the Super League does start its activities, in which case Barcelona will immediately receive a huge amount of money (its share for the sale of television rights).

I'm not saying that Rayo Vallecano will be able to stay on top until the end of the season. I mean, what Vallecano has achieved now is one example of how interesting La Liga this season will be. Of course, big teams like Atletico, Real Madrid, and Barcelona will definitely try even harder to boost their performance. But if there is another team that can break through the hegemony, then La Liga 2021/2022 will be something different because, in the last 9 years, the top 3 of La Liga have always been dominated by Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atletico Madrid.

You have every reason to be doubtful since no other smaller teams has ever won the league from the early 2000s up to present apart from Valencia and Atletico Madrid.

Barcelona is not that far off from the leading teams and it's actually good for the league as this could could turn out to be more competitive than last season when Atletico M. had a double digit advantage.
