La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[emrecemsan]

When it comes to if it will be Real Madrid's season again I can say that it won't hopefully. I mean that at least we shouldn't see any domination this time. I just want to see a solid fight for the title between them and Barcelona that's all. It is difficult to predict which side would make it to the title at the end. But I just want to see the usual competition between them back. There is an interesting situation for Barcelona now as they might not be able to register all of their new players to the league and I hope they don't have a problem like this.

Will this be the season of Real Madrid again? Because I heard doubts about them because they barely moved in the transfer market. They still rely on the majority of players who have been on the team for a long time. And most of those players are players who probably won't be in football for long. Ancelotti is very confident with what he has at the moment.

Having lost a pre-season game against Barcelona I was a little bit nervous. But that result cannot be the benchmark for the League's start. I think anceloti has considered all. They have a lot of old players, but their physical strength is still able to compete. I think that's what makes Anceloti not looking for many new players.
Madrid still have a chance of winning, even if they are old. But for the observers perhaps Barca are potential champions because they buy a lot of new players. Perhaps Anceloti does not want to be like other coaches who make star players fail to develop.

Their physical strength will not always be able to compete, I think the experience that some old Real Madrid players have is much more likely to beat the younger ones.

Ancelotti can probably hope that Barcelona cannot sign all of his new players for the season and that will make little difference to their strength. Barcelona are reportedly still struggling to register 5 new players, but they will have to wait for some player sales before resolving this issue. I think they still have options if no one really wants to leave, but it should be the last resort.

They still rely on the majority of players who have been on the team for a long time. And most of those players are players who probably won't be in football for long. Ancelotti is very confident with what he has at the moment.

Ancelotti will start the season with a bunch of experimented players with new players that will strengthen the defence line. So Real Madrid will basically start from a high level. At the opposite, Barcelona for example will start from a lower level that's why they went crazy in this transfer window, building the team all over! so they can reach the level of the other big clubs in Europe.
Yet, I won't deny that Real Madrid might struggle in front of Barcelona, they are way better right now on paper..
BTW, I just noticed that ATM won with 4 goals to 0 vs Juve! Morata scored 3

Real Madrid should be able to play really well in the upcoming season. Especially with the type of squad that they have right now. They will have some added problems which they did not have in the last season. Barcelona has obviously become stronger than before. But I still believe that Real Madrid will be able to play better compared to Barcelona. Because the squad of Real Madrid is the most complete one in La Liga.

So I believe Real Madrid will be all right even though Barcelona have made some really controversial decisions and brought in a lot of big names in the squad. I have to disagree that Real Madrid is going to struggle against Barcelona. But for that, Real Madrid's main striker Karim Benzema will have to play as he did last season.

Yes, you're right, we think that Barcelona has a great line-up, but even so I see Real Madrid much stronger, in fact they are thinking of signing a new player from PSG, I think it's a very good thing, really Real Madrid I see it as something reserved for the purchase of players, but in reality it does need to reinforce its line of defense, perhaps if they manage to negotiate with PSG to bring one, as is the case with Mauro Icardi, I see it as something positive, for now it does not matter if Benzema or Modric are veteran players, for me Real Madrid is waiting for the World Cup to happen and to be able to sign good (young) players who stand out, that is the style that Real Madrid always aims for, just like It happened in Brazil 2014 when he signed James Rodriguez, number 10, that it seems that whoever wears that shirt does not do very well in the merengue team.

I was reading some news and this caught my attention:

Mauro Icardi open to joining Real Madrid

Out-of-favour Paris Saint-Germain striker Mauro Icardi is reportedly open to joining Real Madrid before the transfer window closes.

Source: http://www.thehardtackle.com/transfer-news/2022/08/08/mauro-icardi-open-to-joining-real-madrid/

This is a very good option, it would be a question of being able to acquire a good central defense, for me a good defender is very important, we can have the best midfielders in the world, and the best forwards, but we must remember that the best defense in the case of the Brazilians will be their attack, but this is not Real Madrid's style, Real Madrid is more solid in each of its positions, I think that a good central defender is what the team needs to feel more secure at least for this season, and steps to the UCL.

For me Ancelotti has a high level, there is something that they commented on ESPN and that is that when Benzema does not play at Real Madrid the chances of losing increase, and when they play with Benzema it is almost a sure victory, perhaps Benzema is that lucky charm What is everyone looking for in a team? lol, it may be that they have a lot of faith in him and Modric, but we all know that Real Madrid did not play with everything against that friendly match, while Barcelona did play with very important players and almost the starting squad, perhaps Ancelotti was proving the level of Barcelona, and it must also be recognized that Barcelona did not play on that occasion with everything they had, both technical directors have been careful not to bring out their best secret weapons, either in players and technical strategy.

Their physical strength will not always be able to compete, I think the experience that some old Real Madrid players have is much more likely to beat the younger ones.

Ancelotti can probably hope that Barcelona cannot sign all of his new players for the season and that will make little difference to their strength. Barcelona are reportedly still struggling to register 5 new players, but they will have to wait for some player sales before resolving this issue. I think they still have options if no one really wants to leave, but it should be the last resort.

Ancelotti already knows all the strengths that Barcelona has and in part I think he knows very well how Xavi is handling it, Ancellotti for me is one of the best coaches in the world, and I think he knows what the strategy can be. of Xavi, however what I can speculate is that Ancelotti is not worried about the League for now, but about his opponents in the UCL, he has a strong Man City, a great Bayern that has scored goals thanks to Muller, a PSG that at any moment they could be the most dangerous team in history if they exploit all their potential, Ancelotti knows that they have a World Cup ahead of them where new stars will surely emerge that he will want for his team, it is not surprising that he is managing the way in which want to sign in the near future.

Barcelona are back on par with Real Madrid so during the pre-season match showed how Barcelona have become a very strong opponent again although that is not the benchmark I think Real Madrid's vigilance against Barcelona must remain cautious.

I think Anceloti still wants the old squad because of the belief it is possible to keep the older players by still being able to compete with other players, we'll just see if this season the older players can compete again or not.
Anceloti is a shrewd coach he can definitely play the old man role.

Laliga, Champions League and Copa Del Rey will be equally important for Real Madrid and other Spanish teams. Barcelona's strength is nothing to worry about because I think Real Madrid remains optimistic to beat it this season, but whether we realize it or not Barcelona has woken up from its sleep for better days.

This season Xavi is responsible for winning a number of targets, that will be what he wants most during his time at Barcelona. I really hope that Laporta can maximize all the options to register all new players this season because the competition will be much more interesting with the presence of these players.

[Sirait]

De jong's transfer drama still continues, this time barca is threatening him hard.

De Jong himself is reportedly reluctant to accept a salary reduction. Barcelona have reportedly warned that he will be a substitute or given the opportunity to play as a center back (which is not his original position) if he still refuses. De Jong's fate at Barcelona so far is still a question mark. He was approached by Manchester United, but he was reluctant to move to a club that did not play in the Champions League. Chelsea are also interested in him, but at the moment he wants what is rightfully his.

I really wonder about de jong, if Barca management doesn't respect him anymore at the club then he should just leave because he is a good player, this will hamper his career.

Real Madrid has all the need to still take the league title this season their squad is still reliable enough needless of signing new players but in the main while their performance this season will determine how far the go. In the main while their biggest threat will obviously be and will remain Barcelona throughout the season and i hope to see how the contention this season goes

The squad owned by madrid last season plus the addition of players like Tchouaméni and Rudiger will be the mainstay of ancelotti this season, compared to last season maybe this season journey to defend the La Liga trophy  will be very difficult for madrid because this season Barcelona has done a lot of preparation with bring in many star players, this season competition will obviously be very balanced because both teams already have squads that are quite ideal in the title race, if we used to see the rivalry previously between Messi and Ronaldo in La Liga but this season the rivalry is no less great will also occur in the  top scorer competition between Benzema and Lewandowski.

I really hope that Laporta can maximize all the options to register all new players this season because the competition will be much more interesting with the presence of these players.

Barcelona squad this season with last season is certainly much different because Barcelona in this transfer market brought in several star players such as Lewandowski and Raphinha of course their arrival will show a pretty good side for Barcelona to start next season. I think Real Madrid should be wary of Barcelona next season because from their current player statistics, Barcelona can automatically take over the La Liga trophy from Real Madrid.
But on the real madrid side they are still the strongest dominance in the league after Vinicius and Rodrygo found their best performance in the league last season, of course these two players became an important point for real madrid when facing their opponents. Ancelotti is a coach with a lot of experience and he knows the situation of his opponents so it is easy for him to adjust each strategy with different opponents. The point is next season is more exciting than last season.

[Jody.Drummer]

This is still possible, but the problem is that the Spanish League authorities are still not willing to accept the registration of these 5 new players from Barcelona which makes this quite difficult for them. How can we see Lewandwoski be the focus when he can't even be registered there.
Now we can only hope that Barcelona solve the problem so that they can play Lewandowski in La Liga.

Joan Laporta must have a plan that has not been published to any party to be able to register all his players, the logic is why Barcelona bring in top players if they can't be registered. Lewandowski and a number of other names brought in by Barcelona in the transfer market this season will be part of Barcelona's adventure this season. Barcelona will have no trouble registering players, as Laporta is trying to clean up the warehouse.

In what way? Re-make a reduction in player salaries there? Or did some players have to leave like they did with De Jong now?
I still don't understand the way they think at this time when Manchester United desperately wanted to bring De Jong they refused with various burdensome clauses and now they are forcing De Jong to leave even with threats that can be said to be unreasonable.
At least if they have a plan, then they have to do it quickly because the League starts in less than a week.

[doomloop]

Let's just hope that this doesn't happen for Barcelona. Otherwise not much thing will chance for the La Liga. This would be like a hindrance ahead of them for reaching the title a little easier than before. Barcelona and Xavi must have already thought about this. I think they would solve this likely problem for this league. Because they must be targeting to be very successful in not only the Champions League but also the La Liga. They can't make simple mistakes now.

It will happen. Think about how much la liga would be hated as a management if they declined it, they would be losing a lot of teams a lot of money as well. Barcelona fighting for a title means that general la liga tv rights income will be higher, and when it is higher that means we are going to see every team get some money. Sure Real Madrid wouldn't want them to be good, but everyone else would want them to be good for sure.

This is why I do not think that it will change to any better or worse, I think they will be accepted into the team and registered, so that they will fight for a title and make the whole league even more fun to watch globally all around the world.

If Barcelona is able to register all its players and the club is running normally without any problems, then Barcelona can indeed be Real Madrid's toughest opponent, like the previous seasons in the past. Where El Classico will be a spectacle that is truly exclusive and high-tension. Real Madrid as we know has a strong squad and has proven itself in the last season. And now Barcelona is struggling with their new squad. It will not be easy or as easy as last season, of course, it will be different. Finally, we might be able to enjoy the La Liga standings more with the possibility of a more interesting score competition.

I really wonder about de jong, if Barca management doesn't respect him anymore at the club then he should just leave because he is a good player, this will hamper his career.

I don't understand these threats either. I mean, if the law was broken when the contract was signed, then the management will be in trouble and there will be problems with the law, why would they do that? They seem to think that if De Jong goes all the way, they can sue him and still get away with it, but that is unlikely. If I were a player I'd run away from a team where they don't show you the slightest bit of respect

[nurilham]

Although all the new players cannot be registered, Barcelona still becomes one of the toughest opponents in La Liga. As far as I know, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are always the strongest competitors in La Liga every season. No other clubs have the capability to compete with Real Madrid. Even if Sevilla and Real Betis have improved their squads, they still can't compete for the title. It is actually not only about the squad quality, but it is also about the mentality. Other clubs have no winning mentality.

But not last season where barcelona fucked up , they are staying at the middle of the table for a couple months , that was a historical event lol. It could happened again next season though when their key players are not allowerd to registered both in la liga and champions league.

They are going to get another misery but im sure they have calculated everything about these no sense signings of the season.

[lulumiya]

I think that this season is going to be a season that Atletico Madrid are struggling to keep up while Barcelona and Real Madrid are competing hard for the La Liga title. Because I see nearly zero change about Atletico Madrid now. It is more difficult for them unless they add really qualified players to the team. I don't think Simeone would change his tactics much either.

[MCobian]

Real Madrid's opportunity to win the La Liga trophy is still wide open, moreover Real Madrid is still strengthened by all its main players.
Even Real Madrid managed to bring in Tchouameni and Rudiger to strengthen their squad, but I think Real Madrid still need at least one more
forward as cover for Benzema. Because Real Madrid's match schedule is very tight, it seems very risky to force Benzema to play in all matches.
While Luka Jovic has moved to Fiorentina, there is only Mariano Diaz whose quality is not suitable for a team as big as Real Madrid. That's why
Real Madrid had to buy a centre-forward, there are rumors linking Real Madrid with Werner and also Icardi. But since Werner is most likely to
return to Leipzig, it looks like Icardi is the right choice for Real Madrid. The problem is Real Madrid have a bad relationship with PSG, so I'm not sure
Real Madrid can get Icardi.

Don't underestimate Atletico Madrid. Even if they didn't sign any top players, they are still a big team. I am sure that Atletico Madrid will compete for the title as well, just look at their result against Juventus, it seems Morata can be a sharp striker in Atletico Madrid this season. Simeone is a smart coach, he must know how to optimize his current squad. He already spent a lot of time with Atletico Madrid and is one of the top coaches in la Liga, he knows how to make his team stays strong.

The competition will be very boring if there are only two teams that capable to get the trophy. i just hope if all of teams are capable enough to compete between one to the each other. It  will be very attracting for viewers if the small club can also play so hard against those big club.
It's caused by sometime when the big club has so many superstars on it but when a small club can be lucky enough and it can beat the big club.
I hope that this season will be more competitive. The club like atletico, villareal were also good enough.

Atletico Madrid can still enliven the competition for the La Liga title even though Atletico Madrid did not add really quality players and Simeone did not change tactics.
But I still believe that Simeone will provide the best tactics for Atletico Madrid next season in order to compete with the two big teams (Barcelona and Real Madrid) for the title in La Liga.
