La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Dewi Aries]

Barcelona have a whole lot of problems right now, from lack of experienced players to lack of good players down to the coach and their financial situation. It’s eating to the heart of Barcelona. The last couple of years have really been tragic for Barcelona and their fans. With absolutely no trophy or medal to show for their hard work. Real Madrid on the other hand are having a good time both domestically and abroad. Maybe Messi left too early as Barcelona still needs him.

Actually barcelona bought some experienced  players Memphis Depay and Sergio Aguero it's just that their game doesn't progress like Depay for example is very good when playing for his country unfortunately not for barcelona , it sometimes becomes a question of what really happened is it because the teammates don't match or something else ?

Memphis depay isn't good enough for them, he lacks the DNA, i knew he was not gonna make it up.
They're doing great i think they still need a change of players behind, should i just day the defending is a bit poor... Its hih time Gerrard pique leaves.
Fati returns, get a new defender maybe a midfield and you'll see the transformation of that tram,they will do great.

Now that's what confuses Memphis Depay always scores goals for his country that's what attracted Barcelona to be interested in buying him. Defense may be the main concern but attacker too I think the front line is unstable sometimes they play goalless. this season could be ruining their reputation always scoring more than 80 goals every season.

Memphis Depay is greatest player and he has more contribution for his country but when Xavi Hernandez back to Barcelona he less contribution for team and not get many minutes playing right now, his position always change by Fati and some time Luuk De Jong take as forward replace Depay position, better looking for new club if Barcelona not giving minutes player for Depay exactly he has top performance right now and I think easy how to find new club for him.

Depay has been injured so Xavi has been unable to use his services several times since December 2021. Depay was just back in El Clasico yesterday where he didn't make much difference to his team. He was good on several occasions, but he didn't consistently score goals.

Now that Fati is back, Barcelona also has Ferran Torres where the duo Dembele, Fati and Ferran are expected to have a good impact on the team's performance. Depay might be left out if he can't maintain his best form. We have seen Coutinho leave for the second time from Barcelona on loan. So Depay also needs to consider why he needs to improve his form.

[W Jr.]

What a match it is! I didn't expect Barcelona to resist Real Madrid this much.  Actually, Real Madrid got ahead two times but Barcelona still equalized the score and we are in the extra time now. And Valverde carried his team ahead once more in the 98th minute. Barcelona are trying their best in the second half of the extra time now as they are 2-3 behind. But I think that Barcelona won't score the equalizer once again. Real Madrid will reach the final.

Real Madrid reached the final, but Barça attracted more attention with their performance in this match. I did not expect this resistance. I think Xavi has accomplished a great technical feat. I think that he gave motivating speeches to the football players along with the formations. At the end of this beautiful game, they almost had the possibility to eliminate Real Madrid. Maybe Barça would have won if the match had gone to a draw and penalties had been awarded. It was a nice El Classico.

This match brings lot of hope back for Barcelona. They played very good and mentally strong. They did not let Real Madrid to win the El Classico Super Cub too easy. Xavi is bringing the Barcelona playing style back. Maybe it is an upgrade of tiki taka which he is a core part of it under Pep management. Barcelona now are not easily broken mentally and Xavi contributes good things to improve it.

Depay has been injured so Xavi has been unable to use his services several times since December 2021. Depay was just back in El Clasico yesterday where he didn't make much difference to his team. He was good on several occasions, but he didn't consistently score goals.

The absence of Depay gives opportunity to Dembele and this player had not too bad match yesterday. Xavi can be a coach who can use Dembele best in Barcelona. Koeman failed to use Dembele but Xavi can use him well. It is unfair to say all responsibility belongs to Koeman or Xavi because Dembele must be more aggressive with his training and more professional with is activities from eating to party.

Now that Fati is back, Barcelona also has Ferran Torres where the duo Dembele, Fati and Ferran are expected to have a good impact on the team's performance. Depay might be left out if he can't maintain his best form. We have seen Coutinho leave for the second time from Barcelona on loan. So Depay also needs to consider why he needs to improve his form.

Fati is back and scored a goal. I wish Fati will not get too many injuries which can affect his career. Dembele, Fati, Ferran can be another 3 in attacking system for Barcelona. Or Ferran will be a part of midfielder and combine with Gavi and Busquet. Dembele, Fati and Depay will be three attacking players. Ferran can play like Iniesta in the past. Gavi like Xavi in the past.

They are future of Barcelona.

[Fesatmas]

Memphis Depay is greatest player and he has more contribution for his country but when Xavi Hernandez back to Barcelona he less contribution for team and not get many minutes playing right now, his position always change by Fati and some time Luuk De Jong take as forward replace Depay position, better looking for new club if Barcelona not giving minutes player for Depay exactly he has top performance right now and I think easy how to find new club for him.

Depay does have good potential, maybe Xavi doesn't suit him. Depay himself still has a good chance out there, but does he really have the intention to go and get ready for a new city out there? while at Barcelona Depay did not provide much of a role on the field because Xavi had other options. Isn't it a shame for a Depay to be left to rust at his ideal age to continue to hone and develop the skills he has as a striker.

[dataispower]

The only good reason Barcelona bought Memphis Depay, was as a result of Ronald Koeman wanting his presence.
The Barcelona team doesn't suits him, you'll see how he get less game on the pitch, having fati back, ferran Torres and Ousman Dembele, these will get more game time than himself.
A little bit oof frustration from him and youll see his agent looking for possible move for him elsewhere.
Gradually i am certain Barcelona will do better.

[skarais]

The only good reason Barcelona bought Memphis Depay, was as a result of Ronald Koeman wanting his presence.

Since he was signed, I have said that Koeman is the reason why Depay and De Jong are at Barcelona. I don't know why Barcelona obeyed Koeman's wishes at that time because Suarez was much more important to maintain than buying these two players. Depay has done his best to find good form, but he lacks something Barcelona expect from his style of play. Xavi might put him on the bench more often if Fati, Dembele and Torres make a positive impact for Barcelona.

A little bit oof frustration from him and youll see his agent looking for possible move for him elsewhere.
Gradually i am certain Barcelona will do better.

If there is a suitable offer, then Barcelona will sell them in the transfer market. But who?

The El Clasico last night was really superb as we watched a great competition between the teams. Barcelona played much better than the expected even though they were still eliminated by a 2-3 score. And today, there is another enjoyable game between Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao. And Athletic Bilbao haven't had wins against Atletico Madrid many times recently. I think that Atletico Madrid will be the winner here and the finale will be between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid.

I think that Atletico Madrid will be the winner here and the finale will be between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid.

I watched this match for 120 minutes. Barcelona forced Real Madrid to go into extra time as the match ended 2-2 in normal time. Real Madrid, who led twice, was forced to play 120 minutes by Barcelona because Barcelona wanted to advance to the final. But Real Madrid proved that they deserved the final more than Barcelona, ​​it was a tough game for Madrid but also a great game for Barcelona.

I saw that Barcelona managed to keep up with Real Madrid, but they had to lose in the end. If Barcelona start to find their best form then Laliga will be fun to look forward to again. I'm sure it will happen soon because it looks like Xavi already has a lot of player options during this January.

[Raflesia]

But this match Barcelona played better even Xavi's strategy was able to suppress Real Madrid with almost the same resistance even though in the end it had to hurt the decisive goal at the end of the match by Velverde.

It was enough for me to see that this time Barcelona was more dominant, even though there were blunders but it was all done with a pretty good attack, but Xavi still didn't win in the El Clásico match.

It's goals that win matches, not possession or attempts 
Barcelona still have some work to do, though they have improved by quite a mile compared to the last El Clásico. I was still happy by how Real Madrid were lethal with the few chances they had and won the match after extra time.

Vinicius Jr is a kid to watch.
If he continues to perform at this level. Mbappé and Haaland will have another competitor to worry about.

It's true that the goal is the decisive one and indeed Madrid have won this match, but on the other hand I appreciate Barcelona's game which is indeed quite good in this match.
on the other hand I don't know this is just how I feel or almost all of them feel.
Barcelona looks stronger with a fairly big team and looks weak when playing with opponents who are at the bottom

[diyetisman]

There have been more than 40 minutes passed in the game and it is still 0-0. Atletico Madrid have more shots now but they don't have a dominance in terms of performance too. Athletic Bilbao are doing a good job by holding them off for now. I guess that their plan is to wear them out and score later in the game. And after that, Atletico Madrid will need to work harder to equalize the score. And there will be even a chance for Athletic Bilbao to win.

Atletico happened to be the first to score in the second half, that was  after they ended the first half in goalless draw. Actually the goal was a own goal. However, Athletic Club equalize the score with an awesome goal which was scored by Alvarez, and they just scored another goal. Making the score 1-2. I literally knew Athletic Club was going to make the game a tough one for Atletico Madrid. As this point of time, Atletico have to play more carefully to avoid losing.

Atletico Madrid had to experience bad luck again after Athletico Bilbao managed to beat them with a score of 1-2, with this victory it is certain that Bilbao will face Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final later, I don't know what will happen to Atletico Madrid this season, but I seeing since entering the middle of this season their performance continues to decline, I think simoene should immediately improve their team performance in order to be able to maintain their position in the top 4, By the Way, it looks like this season a lot of atletico madrd matches have been marked with red cards and this indicates that atletico madrid still continues to apply their style of play who are hard and physically compete in every match.

[barbara44]

Honestly it looks like Barcelona played a great offensive game and aside from being unlucky they were definitely on the roll offensively. However, their defense still needs to be a lot more strict, they still ended up losing the game because of the goals they got scored. It is simple, they are just focusing on the zone a lot and not their man enough, realizing this, smart players like Benzema ended up slacking a lot behind so that Barcelona defenders would cover where he "should" be and not where he is.

Look at the second goal, his defensive guy goes back to defense while he stays behind a little, that should have not happened and he should have been marked as a great scoring threat. All in all I would say that with some more better defensive plays, they will be great. Pedro and Fati are two young players who promise a lot for them in the future, I can see them getting better and better.

Atletico Madrid - Athletic Bilbao match in the Super Cup ended really interestingly. The first half was more balanced but in the second half things started changing. Atletico Madrid started to have a difficult time against Athletic Bilbao. However they still were the first team to score. But Athletic Bilbao were so dedicated that they found 2 goals by only a 4-minute gap between them. And they secured the 2-1 advantage till the end. I think they really deserved to qualify for the finale.

Another disapointement for atletico fans and another poor performance as you said bilbao team totaly deserved the win they dominated and created more chances than atletico and its not surprising at all and now atletico team has only the cup to focus on since laliga is far away.

Unique phenomenon when we saw Madrid vs Bilbao in the final usually Barcelona or Atletico are there but this time is different Bilbao has taken place
I have never imagined  final like this either the match like what we expected even I wasn't interested in watching it , I say congrats to Madrid at the beginning

I'm a fan of Real Madrid in Spain, but I'm glad that Atlético are out and not in the final. On the one hand, it’s nice to beat a principled opponent in the final, on the other hand, I don’t have the strength to look at the torment of Atlético who would play defense from the very beginning, waiting for either a rare opportunity to score on the counterattack or win on penalties. Now we have a chance to see a more fun match.
