La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[nikola22]

I was expecting an easy win for Barcelona but they failed against a humble team like Alaves, Ronald Koeman is the first to be blamed in their situation because Braca still have a good squad that can compete even for La Liga, now it seems like we won't see them as strong as they were without making some changes in the team starting by firing Koeman.

with Ronald Koeman leaving the team Barcelona won't play as at Messi time. yes, Barca was dominating all the match and Alaves used only chance they had but who would remember this when looking at the results?

the problem of barcelona is also in the players and this was a consequence of the club not having made good choices in the players who score goals, barcelona has a crisis of players who score goals and this, together with the financial crisis, makes it very difficult to solve the problem, even that xavi trains barcelona while he is with these same players he will continue to lose, i wondered why the bookmakers keep giving barcelona low odds when they know that barcelona is a weak team?

The biggest problem of Barcelona is their defense, not attack. They can score goals but they can not protect their leading and they end matches with draw or loss.

Yesterday match, I agree that Barcelona were bad and can not score more than one goal. They dominated the match, created some good opportunities but failed to score. Depay had a fantastic goal but he should score 2 or 3 goals in that match. Jordi Alba missed another great opportunity too.

So far Depay is the motivation of Barcelona attack system, we can not deny it but he can do better and Barcelona need better performance from Depay.

The most important thing is achieving the 3 points, nobody cares who dominated the Match or not. Depay manage to score in the second half after the first half ended in goalless draw, Only for Alaves to equalize the game 3 minutes after Barcelona scored. Although, Barcelona dominated with 80% ball possession, but they couldn't win against Alaves who is not even a tough team. Barcelona definitely needs to recover, and they are currently at the 9th place on the standings. Honestly, if they continue like this, they won't be able to end this season in the top 4.

Had it been Lionel Messi is in Barcelona, Barcelona would not have lose in the game . The major problem of Barcelona was not Ronald Koeman Barcelona lacks good players for defense.

Real Madrid did a nice job for defeating elche,  the red card elche had  was an advantage for real Madrid to win.

Barcelona shared the points with the strong Alaves. Barcelona is now playing like e weak team, teams like Alaves are very strong for them. The Alaves have lost 7 games this season. Although Barcelona's recent performance was weak, I thought they would win against Alaves. But they could not win. Their gameplay was also weak. With such a performance, they will not be able to be in the top 5 teams in the points table. There is no bonding between the players, no match strategy. In the whole second half, I did not see any good attack from the Barcelona players.

For sure the problem is with both Koeman and the defense so both need to be fixed now the new coach has to concentrate on defense
Alaves has 6 goals in 11 games one of the goals scored for barcelona this proves that barcelona's defense is very bad

Expecting something easy at Camp nou ? The visitors have won two game's successfully at prior to this game.. getting a draw from Barcelona's game is a big result.
The build up to Alaves game is something I want to see over and over again.
Memphis depay scored a very beautiful goal, heading to the last minute of the game, Barcelona pressed hard,while Alaves defended very well.

Barcelona started the season badly,
Barcelona performance is experiencing a drastic decline, they recorded only one win in the last six matches in all competitions. after the Ronald Koeman Era ended, Barcelona has now appointed Sergi Barjuan as interim coach. Barcelona appeared so dominant at the Camp Nou, But the final solution is a problem faced by the Blaugrana, in the last five games Barcelona is only able to collect five point. Very disappointing.

First debut for Sergi Barjuan as interim coach have play draw with Alaves, In this match Barcelona was very dominant with 80% ball possession compared to Alaves who were only able to control the ball 20%, the hallmark of Barcelona's game was still in possession of the ball but they made very few shots at the goal,

even in this match they were only able to make 5 shots on goal and I think the finish from Barcelona was very bad.

It's a shame that Sergi Barjuan's debut as interim coach was not so good, because Barcelona should have won. Moreover, Barcelona played
very attacking and dominated the match, but could only score one goal, this means that Barcelona's strategy is not effective. Barcelona's
defense is also very bad, we can see Luis Rioja can pass Barcelona defenders easily and finally managed to make the match end in a draw.
Sergi Barjuan must improve Barcelona's defense, bravely giving Lenglet or Umtiti a chance to play from the start of the match. Because I saw
Pique playing badly and had to be substituted. Then in order to make Barcelona's front line more productive, Coutinho was given the opportunity
to be a starter. Don't repeat the same mistakes that Koeman made, playing Dest on the front lines, because Dest's original position is defender,
so he lacks the instinct to score goals.

At the start, I think a lot needs to be improved for the upcoming matches for Barcelona. Sergi Barjuan should try better potions to strengthen the Barcelona defense and midfield. in this match, we can see how the dominance of possession is very high for Barca. but only one can be converted into a Goal.
I think there is still time to reorganize the team. Sergi Barjuan can see how the old players at Barca can be combined with some new players who are still young. We'll see how it develops in the upcoming matches. Of course, there are currently a lot of evaluations being carried out.

Barcelona dominates every match, they have more ball possession. But at the end of the match, they just lost points. We've seen this happen since Koeman took charge of the team. This is nothing new. What is the benefit of holding more balls? Unless they can attack more or score more goals? Although they possessed the ball, their gameplay was very weak. They made a lot of wrong passes, the attacks were also very weak.

Real Sociedad will face Athletico Bilbao today. Bilbao is not a weak team. They often perform well against strong and renowned teams. Real Sociedad are now third in the points table. Real Madrid, Sevilla and Real Sociedad have equal points. Real Sociedad will win today's match and will be able to occupy the first place in the table. The match is tough but I think Sociedad will be able to win.

seriously bad Another problem is that Aguero ,the player who started seriously injured with a heart is in the hot news today after meeting Alaves ,the players are really in bad shape
the match ended in a draw made me quite tired and stopped for a moment to hit the bet ,Since Koeman left it seems that that person's energy is still there which makes Barcelona including me unlucky

Man, bad news followed by more bad news for us Barca fans. I just hope the guy is okay I don't want another Eriksen incident who until now no one knows if he will ever play again. Let's just hope for the best for this legend, he never had time to settle in at our club but he's already contributed so much.

Barcelona's problem now is their defense,they have always tried in thier game play but when it comes to delivering goals, its a NO.!
I have always been saying that Barcelona should work on their defense,substitute pique for a young boy who can hold attackers down on close range,cover space and pullout.
Since koeman left, everything seems to have crumbled slowly but the barcelona administrators should try to emerge with a new idea to be able to get funds and sign players who will be able to hold the upfront for them

Still early to said Aguero have the same cases like Eriksen and better waiting for tomorrow will give announcement by Barcelona management. I think if Aguero have left club with seriously injury will give bad impact for Barcelona because they still faced problem on forward where less goal created by Barcelona forward in this season.

But hope everything could be fine for Aguero and could give many goal for Barcelona because they still have many important match in this month with champion league become most decision how to win left three match later.

At least they didn't lose. Looking at the stats of the match, they were ahead of the attempted kick on goal and they had the ball. They should have won but Alaves were able to score, regarding the draw it looks like Barca are a bit unlucky. Moreover, this is Sergi Barjuan's debut as Barcelona B coach, for that they are adapting again with a new coach, and you must have understood that Barcelona was unstable this season. I wonder if they will appoint Xavi as coach?

Like Barcelona doesn't have enough problem starting from financial issues to questionable management and medical issues with many injuries and now Aguero..
Yesterday draw is equal to a defeat. They are 5 points away from a CL spot and 8 points behind Real Madrid in the first place.. Hard season.
Both ATM and Sociedad will have interesting games vs Betis and Bilbao respectively. Odds are in favor of the first teams.

Yeah, I know. But seriously I am not expecting big things from our squad anymore so I'm actually not terribly disappointed by the results. For me, more important to see us play with some smiles and see the squad grow and gel together, and I personally thought it was good as a performance from them.

No need to view at UCL spots anymore, just take each game one by one, with UCL one coming up next. We must beat Kiev to look forward.
