La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[KTChampions]

Have you heard that Barcelona in the season 22/23 must pay Pique 52 million?   This amount consists of salary, wage arrears and deferred payments (in fact, Barcelona has already borrowed money from him).
But now management is trying to convince the player to give up some of that money on the grounds that they don't have enough money to sign up newbies   What is this nonsense? Doesn't anyone think this circus is absurd and vile?

In fact they only care about the purchases they continue to make but say that they are in crisis and have to cut the salaries of most players and even have to be in arrears.
Suffice to agree with what you said now it seems like a lot of people are so tolerant of him that they keep doing whatever they want by saying they can't afford enough to pay salaries but can afford enough to spend a lot of money on some great players.

A few days ago, Barcelona announced that their club was in financial crisis. They sold Messi to PSG, showing financial crisis. However, after Messi left Barcelona, ​​Barcelona is giving new surprises one after another. They already have two of the best players in the world in their team. I think Barcelona made such a play to get Messi away from Barcelona

I don't really care about their drama now because it doesn't matter whether they keep Messi away or not, at that time they really had to sell Messi because it wasn't possible to keep him with a very large salary.
But for now it's a little different, they gave everything by even selling a lot of their assets but what I don't like is the hanging of some players' salaries which seems to be excessive now.

[Altryist]

It is natural that the rivalry between the two teams cannot be avoided. When Barcelona have now shown their quality is improving I believe the presence of Barcelona returning to an ideal formation will certainly make Real Madrid wary and do more than what they did last season. These two clubs will improve each other's performance, regardless of which of the two is superior, it will be worthy of being champions. The season is about to start and journey after journey will begin.

So far, Barcelona have made only a lot of noise in the transfer market, but what it can do remains to be seen. It remains to be seen how she, with her financial problems, will pay the salaries of the players, whether she will do it on time, and besides this, there are players to whom Barcelona still has debts. I am rather skeptical about this, I think that financial problems will inflame the situation in the team and this will lower the team spirit. But Real Madrid is doing well and most likely they will dominate La Liga again.

[skarais]

Barcelona increased their strength but Real Madrid made no effort to increase their strength. Real Madrid wanted to sign Mbappe, but they failed. So they will depend on Benzema's performance in the next season as well. If Benzema and Vini can play well, Real Madrid will definitely try their best to win the title. Madrid's attack depends on these two players.

Have you forgotten or not realized that this season Real Madrid has 2 new players, namely Aurélien Tchouameni and Antonio Rüdiger. In addition, there were several players who returned to the team after their loan spells ended, such as Borja Mayoral/ (sold) and Reinier and several others.

Real Madrid may not need many additions to their squad this season as they believe their surviving players deserve to get through this season without any problems. But of course they have to evaluate it in the next transfer window if their performance goes down without any new players. Only Barcelona really did a massive overhaul by bringing in 5 players at once, really beyond expectations.

Barcelona still have financial problems making some players have to accept salary cuts, of course for me with this it is sensitive to reduce their concentration while playing because there is pressure that must be agreed by players, but indeed this is not certain but whether this will make the Barcelona squad more optimal even though we know that in the transfer market many players are brought in.
Real Madrid still remains a high reality, many believe Barcelona to be its toughest rival because it's possible after seeing the squad now much better and more aggressive.
But as the season begins we will know the truth between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Barcelona is full of noise for their transfer and that is a fact.
Regarding the salary issue, I think this will only end in a dispute and will not be finished if you look at the case of Pique it's very funny indeed when it comes to salary they always say they are in a financial crisis but when they transfer players they are so brave to give offers and prices as high as possible for some of his target players.

Indeed, their main asset this season is chemistry and experience which I don't think other clubs in La Liga have. As for the changes made by Barcelona, it will really bother them this season. Some of the players that Barcelona recruited were big names with quality, especially up front. But first I want to see how effective the changes that Barcelona have made.

At least there is hope for some competition titles behind the changes made by Barcelona, although it is too early to think Barcelona will win the title, but the five matchs without defeat that have been played before the start of the season in La Liga gives hope to see Barcelona stronger than the previous season.

Will the competition in La Liga be as exciting as the previous seasons? The reason is, their rivals such as Madrid and Athletico have not made many changes and activities in the transfer market. Are they not aware of the changes in Barcelona?

[bounceback]

I'm not saying Barcelona won't be able to compete with Real Madrid, but as challengers they have to do better than Real Madrid who were defending champions last season. Here I will not underestimate Barcelona, ​​but I still rely on Real Madrid to win the race.
I am aware that in the last two El Clasico meetings Real Madrid lost to Barcelona, ​​but anyway I don't think it will be the same forever, even this season may change because competition and the desire to be the best is always present in these two teams.

Madrid's attack depends on these two players.

By bringing in many players, this season the Barcelona squad should be able to compete even harder with Real Madrid, moreover the players that Xavi brought in are players who already have flying hours and have also proven to be good players at their previous clubs, while Madrid currently only brings in Rudiger and Tchoumeni alone so there is no reason for Xavi not to be able to make the Barcelona squad a more formidable challenger to the Real Madrid team.

[Falconer]

Some people above were saying that barcelona will be winning the trophy easily from real madrid.

It must be crazy, I wouldn't believe it was that easy even if they sent Messi and Neymar back from PSG.

Sometime the mediocre team can also beat the big team like barcelona or real madrid as well. It's about how sustain the team to keep winning the game.
The result from el classico will not also determine the winner for the season. let the game to be played first. 

It's true that it can happen at any time and to any team. It is impossible to win all games in the league in one season, big teams also have gaps to be beaten by lower or mid-table teams. If Barcelona is believed to be able to win the title this season, then Sevilla, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid can also win it.

Have you heard that Barcelona in the season 22/23 must pay Pique 52 million?   This amount consists of salary, wage arrears and deferred payments (in fact, Barcelona has already borrowed money from him).
But now management is trying to convince the player to give up some of that money on the grounds that they don't have enough money to sign up newbies   What is this nonsense? Doesn't anyone think this circus is absurd and vile?  

Since they both had agreement with the player and agent why breach them own part of the deal by not completely paying pique ? Thier debt should be fixed in which ever way and not to affect players wages and salary.
This ain't fair pique isn't the first player they have asked for deduction although, Frankie De Jong and Busquet. I think pique will do in other to remain at Barcelona but if he doesn't then it's a sign for him to leave Barcelona. But, to be frank, Barcelona are not getting things right with them player's, this should be one of the reasons Dani Alves left Barcelona.

^^ So Barcelona has the money to spend 150 million in the transfer market. Yet, they don't have the money to pay a player who borrowed their money, who has been playing for them and is still playing for them to this date?

And now they are trying to convince him to take less money? When Barcelona started making those transfers this season, I knew that this is not going to end well. I think this is only the start. I just hope that they are able to somehow survive as a club.

[BIT-BENDER]

Everyone keeps talking about Barcelona having huge money to make signing forgetting that Barcelona had to make significant sacrifices to get that, solid good chunk of their future TV rights and partnerships that they won’t have ordinarily entered, all this was just to solidify the team more. Barcelona are looking to build a stronger team for next season and I can say they have gone all the way in in achieving that.

Dani Alves gave a lot of things to Barcelona but he didn't receive proper respect from Barcelona. He is still active and hard working player and he deserves to play at least one season. There was another players to sell but they leave Dani Alves without proper causes.

Are you kidding.
Benzema and Vinicius could not deliver a win without the support of other players. Football is a team game, not individuals, all the players involved in the squad have to put in a good performance to get the win. It is useless Benzema and Vinicius play well and always score goals while the back line is very fragile and easily penetrated by opposing players. I have no doubts about their quality, but the role of other players is also very important in the team.

Actually, I'm not too interested in discussing the club's internal problems or Barcelona's finances so far. They have a problem about their senior player's salary which is still unpaid due to the delay, but they still have to pay it regardless of how Barcelona get around it.

As a Real Madrid supporter, I don't think Barcelona deserve to be called a circus because of the financial problems they are going through, a bit disrespectful because we also have to respect them even though they are rivals. To be honest, I hope all these problems can be solved by Barcelona so that they can register new players this season. For me it's good enough for Laliga and also for Real Madrid because Real Madrid have to get strong competitors to get them to buy a few more players.

You don't understand what I mean. Obviously football is a team game. To win, you must play well as a team. But all teams are a little more dependent on the striker to win. Especially the team whose goal is to win the title. If the team was not more dependent on the striker, then the teams would not have paid such a high amount for the experienced striker? A stable squad is definitely needed to win the title. However, if the team fails to score, the team never wins.

[Captain Corporate]

I agree that striker is one of the most important positions. Of course you can't have any "bad" players in any positions, I mean we have seen what Maguire did with United and how VVD is with Liverpool so if we look at those then we could say that defender is the most important. But in reality defenders are not the makers or breakers like that usually, those are two marginal differences and thats why it looked like that. In reality, striker is the most important because in order to win you need at least one goal, hopefully more, and we saw many times players like Benzema did last year and how he brought the team to an UCL title.

At first I thought when they sold some of their shares and broadcasting rights it was to pay and cover some of the arrears there but I feel this is a mistake because they don't seem to intend to do that because they are just shopping and spending regardless of their debts.
No one dares to speak at this time because when they do that, things like Pique feel will happen to other players who ask about salary

[DukeNickle]

Barcelona are in a much better condition in terms of the squad quality now but we still haven't watched them in any league game yet. We will find out how strong chemistry they have with the new transfers. But if we just take the squad qualities into account then we can clearly say that they are one of the number one contenders for the title. Honestly I would like to watch a fierce fight between Barcelona and Real Madrid for becoming the champions.

Let me tell you something. Barcelona is not on track to be able to pay the debt. At least not soon enough. It is going to take a lot of time. And the way Barcelona is making big transfers in the transfer market, they are obviously not going to be able to generate enough money in time to pay whatever debt they have.

The logical approach to handling this should have been not to spend too much money for at least three or four years. After that, they could have been in a much better position to pay the debt. They would have been up to $500k in debt by then. At that time, they could have gone for the big move. But now they are just going more and more into debt.
