The new additions to the team prove themselves like they are the right transfers. Lewandowski comes at first of course. I don't mean that Aubameyang has played bad so far. In fact he was great but Lewandowski is one of the most talented strikers in football now. Their scoring ability has increased much more as a result. The Vallecano draw was an unlucky result but they have made up for that.

The satisfying results obtained in the second jornada seemed to break the assumption that Barcelona squad had not been able to work well together. After getting a draw with Rayo Vallecano, Barcelona immediately showed their identity by making amends in the first match.
Lewandowski prowess as a main striker cannot be doubted, he has proven during his time at Bayern Munich.
2 goals from Lewandowski was enough to prove that he is still very dangerous even though he is 34 years old, his experience and qualities as a top striker can help Barcelona to achieve their goals this season.

What you did was not wrong because if you look at the previous match they had a good game performance and often dominated but strangely in the match against Villarreal Atlético de Madrid's performance decreased in the last minute and seemed to underestimate the enemy because they couldn't get a goal. Many gamblers have been affected by this, so congrats to those who accidentally placed a bet on Villarreal getting a win.

It's true what you said, the decline in ATM performance occurred in the last few minutes and that's what caused Pino to score goals in the 70' minute and Moreno in the 97' minute.

in the match elche vs almeria I will drop a little bet for elche, they are the hosts and have a pretty good history against almeria.

Getafe will fight against promotion team Girona today that last week both of teams has been failed to get their first victory in La Liga and today they will attempts to get 3 points from this match but i found interesting fact about these teams that they were can able to playing draw several times on their previous matches so it proven everytime they met the match always be so tight and today too i think will not so different that although Girona as promotion team status but they will not easy to beat by Getafe so for this match i prefer to pick draw option as my bet

Based on their Last match, it showed that Getafe will not allow promotion team to defeat them in this match, because they have more potential players than promotion which is one of the advantage Getafe will use to defeat them in this match to improve their points. I think, the both teams will use their possible power to play this match to ensure there is no draw at the end of the match. But promotion strikers are not doing well for their last match that made them to experienced defeat from their opponent because their strikers really missed their opportunity in the match.

both teams lost in their first match even Getafe suffered a big defeat against Atletico Madrid.
I think this match is quite balanced even though Girona is a promoted club but the quality of the players they have is not much different from Getafe and even because this match will be played at Girona's home it will give them a bit of an advantage.
In my opinion, a draw is also very possible because considering the quality of the two teams, which are not much different.

I think also that match may end with draw but in my personal opinion, Getafe is favorite in this match. Girona will try to take the advantages of home ground and it is natural but Getafe will try also to get full points in this match.

Elche vs Almeria, Both teams started their campaigns with a loss and are looking for their first wins of the season. Elche had a nightmare against Real Betis while Almeria showed some promise against Real Madrid. Highly likely that this match remains a low scoring affair even though both teams are starting with 2 strikers each. Almeria being the favs to win while playing away from home.

Most clubs in the league this season are finding it hard to gain good points in this early stage of the league, some of the big clubs like Real Madrid have made the first position on the table but then even the small clubs are playing draw or even winning the big clubs so it makes it hard for one to predict the outcome of matches.

[mv1986]

They need to present some new players to the fans and they need to try at all cost to get things back in line. This season could seriously get out of control for them very early on.
Real is still well equipped for the season and they could even make another transfer until the end of August. Maybe they come up with a surprise.

Actually, the reason madrid let casemiro go was because he was old. Modric and kros may in the next season be gone. I was actually quite surprised he left, even Madrid have not been active in the transfer market much this season. Indeed, they still have time, but it seems that there are only 2 weeks left before the end of the transfer market. Casemiro has always been the top choice alongside Modric and Kros. Of course, Anceloti must immediately find his plaintiff. But to date I haven't read the news of the transfer insu for madrid. I hope they are still able to compete with his departure.

Well, if you look at the average age of Real Madrid's squad it has always been relatively high. Casemiro with his 30 years of age wasn't a statistical outlier. They definitely need to come up with a plan for the near future regarding Kroos and Modric. I still think it is possible that they will extend the contracts even for another year for both players if they don't get injured and play on a high level. Kroos is 32 years now and will turn 33 next year. I think it is quite likely that he will extend the contract slightly. I don't think he is planning to transfer to another club anymore. He doesn't seem to be the guy who is now going to LA Galaxy or whatever. On the other hand he once said that he doesn't want to play way beyond his peak and then look like a grandpa on the soccer field. Two important personalities that soon need to be replaced. If they don't extend their contracts that would literally mean that Real Madrid is about to substitute almost the whole midfield with Kroos, Modric and Casemiro. Time for a new generation it seems.

I think that plan for the future has already been set in motion as we have seen some young players coming in this summer as a replacement for Toni kroos, Luka Modric and already departed Casemiro. The future of the club in terms of players is already been projected and work is in progress, hopefully more young players will come in. Like you said, its time for a new generation and Real Madrid are already preparing themselves for that era.

I think that even now it is quite a transition year for Real Madrid. They haven't been spending that much on transfer fees this season and probably they already have a plan in the back of their head that they are going to sign several new players next year for lots of positions. They still want that superstar offensive player as Benzema is only getting older as well. Then they need to some guys who can lead the midfield like Kroos and Modric are doing it. They might also be reaching out for some more defensive players. It might also come down to whether or not Ancelotti is still the coach. He is a coach who prefers less tiki taka and also less high speed soccer. He is more of the patient guy who waits for the chances and then seek the decider. That might have some influence on their decisions regarding potential new players for next season.

Very nice first half since the both teams already scored a goal and too many attempts, elche show good offensive playing in the first half and i think uf they continue the same way they will be able to score an additional goal and why not get the 3 points

[sana54210]

Although Simeone continued to direct Atletico Madrid's players to attack in hopes of a comeback, the team became frustrated that a disconnection midfield produced few chances for Morata and Felix.

Molina received a late red card for pushing Baena from behind, and Moreno's deft finish gave Villarreal a deserved two-goal lead.

In this game I don't understand why they are pushing with 3 defenders even though if we look at the first game with a 5-3-2 formation it is clearly better for Atletico.
In this match even though there were 5 midfielders there, they still couldn't play well because their defense was also exploited again and again.
This result obviously makes Atletico a bit pessimistic even though in the first week they were very good.

Villareal is not a bad team neither, they were Europa winners a year prior and played in semi-finals of UCL last year as well, they are a pretty good team and I believe that we shouldn't be shocked to see them doing well enough.

Doesn't mean that we shouldn't be expecting ATM win in these type of games but doesn't mean that we are going to see them win all the time neither, it was a closer game then people imagine and it was definitely a good game to watch. I didn't wager at all, I wagered just on Barcelona this week from La Liga and that was good enough for me, but I would have probably gone for draw and not ATM win as well, which shows the possibilities.

Elche had a nightmare against Real Betis while Almeria showed some promise against Real Madrid.

The first half went quite tough and both teams played a draw in the game, the current score is 1-1 and I think the hosts have a greater chance of winning after one of the Almeria players gets a red card, superior the number of players must be utilized by Elche to play more aggressive and trying to score goals, as it looks like almeria will probably prefer to secure 1 point right now as it looks like they will get into difficult after losing a player.

[püsür]

Here is the Barcelona we missed. It still has some shortcomings though. The defense sometimes fails. Kounde will come and it will be better as well. The attack is amazing. They have made such a luxurious staff, there are star players who can not enter the game yet. Under the leadership of Xavi, Barça's second Guardiola period seems to be starting. Friends who have seen Lewa lower than Suarez and Benzema for years, I hope they understand why Lewa has scored over 40 goals for 8 years. Words are not enough to describe Lewandowski.

The issue I see is that Dembele typically doesn't stay healthy for a whole season. He is injured quite often and falls short of his potential best performances. It would be great to see him keep his best level over a longer period of time. If that is the case he is so much fun to watch. Quick with the ball, quick decisions and of course the amazing 1vs1 dribblings. He can also score very precisely.

It is still a bit too early to talk about their offense as one that is very strong yet. It will be more fun to watch them play against really hard opponents with a strong defense. Although right now there aren't that many teams in La Liga with a really solid defense. Atletico isn't as stable as they usually are. Real Madrid would be hard to crack for Lewa and co and Villareal seems to be doing a good job defensively as well.

I am for now waiting for the group lottery in the Champions League and then we might see Barcelona facing some stronger defense lines very soon.

[BitcoinAccepted]

An impressive victory in the end for Barcelona. A crazy opening in the match, Lewandovsky immediately asserted himself within 1 minute. I was amazed at how quickly Barcelona managed to give up the lead again. After that, Barcelona didn't really have any more chances, but after the 1st half things started to get better. No one thought it would be 1-4 when the halftime score was 1-1. Sociedad seemed to be getting better in the game. It is good that Barcelona have scored a big win, but for a long time it was difficult. In any case, we have seen a great playing Barcelona in the last 25 minutes.

[nurilham]

Barcelona won by a big score against Real Sociedad, and the great thing is that Lewandowski scored 2 goals at once in this match. Of course it was something I expected as a result of the match because it didn't make sense when I had to see Barcelona drop a lot of points in the first few match after they strengthened their team with some new players.

The big win in the match against Real Sociedad yesterday confirmed that Barcelona is still on the right way to competing for the title. It also proves that Xavi has decided the right thing to prioritize Lewandowski as their main striker (CF) this season. Many people are confused why Xavi forced Barcelona to sign Lewandowski although they have Aubameyang. By scoring 2 goals in this match, Lewandowski just showed us the reason why Xavi really wants him to be a part of Barcelona squad. Aubameyang is a great striker who has amazing speed, but Lewandowski is an effective striker who has a sharp instinct to score in any situation. Barcelona needs a striker who can execute every goal opportunity effectively, and Lewandowski is a perfect option for this.

About Real Madrid I don't think they will have a big problem after Casemiro moved to Manchester United. Aurélien Tchouaméni could be a suitable replacement for him, so Ancelotti should not worry about a move for Casemiro.

You are right. Ancelotti has Tchouaméni, he can replace Casemiro very well. Since he played for the first time with Real Madrid squad, he fits with Real Madrid play style. So, it makes sense if Tchouaméni has no problem being the successor of Casemiro. He even has better physical strength and has a big motivation to grow because he is a young player. Ancelotti was very brilliant to sign Tchouaméni, so they have no problem even if Casemiro was leaving now.

Although Lewandowski is considered not to have performed optimally with Barcelona, ​​but in the match against Sociedad I could really see him appear impressive by scoring a pair of goals. He also scored a quick goal in the first minute of the game, it was a big surprise for Barcelona from him.

So I hope Lewandowski is more motivated to do his best for the Barcelona he has wanted to play for for a long time. His wish has come true this season and he has the opportunity to play under Xavi, so he will have to prove that great ability for Barcelona who are willing to do anything just to sign him and register him in Laliga this season.

[SatoPrincess]

The opponent does not find Eden Hazard to be a very dangerous player any longer. There is no doubt in my mind that his time is coming to an end, and it certainly feels like it is. He has not been performing well at all lately, and when he had the chance to increase his confidence, he missed that opportunity as well, and now he has no confidence at all because his performance has not been that good recently.
 
Everything is good right now for Barcelona because they have won their match against Real Sociedad and everything is going well for the team. Even so, I would still like to say that Barcelona still does not have a good defense which I feel is a matter of concern. In my opinion, that is going to remain the case for a long time to come. I do not expect that they will spend money on bringing in defenders this season, at least not this season.

Since Hazard's arrival at Real Madrid he seems to be a different player, a player different from the Hazard that was the strength and key player for Chelsea, rather he has recorded a series of injuries every season which has affected his performance drastically and he has also lost his confidence. Barcelona's defense still looks shaky and Xavi has showed disappointment in the management for Kounde not being registered until now. I think it is very important and should be regarded as a top priority to get Kounde registered so he can play and balance the back line.

Reportedly until now kounde still can't perform with barca and he's almost frustrated with it. I also can't wait to see kounde's performance with Lewandowski

Aubameyang and Depay are rumored to be leaving Barca soon and it is hoped that before September 1st, Barca will be able to play with their full new strength

[Ratash]

Girona vs getafe game just ended and it wasn't as i expected getafe team needed a good result after that huge loss 3 0 against atletico madrid but they lost again 3 1, they had a terrible first half girona team was really dominant and they scored the first goal in the second half they didn't give getafe time to get it together and they scored the second goal which was the turning point and after that getafe disallowed  goal sealed the deal for the home team, its an important win for girona its their first this season.

[Prince Malik]

Barcelona today prove that this season will be different for them after a big win against real Sociedad and the most beautiful thing is that 3 offensive players scored which is really a good sign, lewandowski started the show with 2 goals today and for sure this is just the beginning

[Velvet78]

Atletico Madrid got a surprising result this week. Villarreal were a tough opponent to beat of course but I wouldn't expect Atletico Madrid to lose in Wanda Metropolitano.Their previous game here ended up with a draw and I was expecting a similar result. This showed clearly that Atletico Madrid are still a problematic team. They can't compete for the title by playing at this level.

I think it is very important and should be regarded as a top priority to get Kounde registered so he can play and balance the back line.

Since moving to Real Madrid Hazard's form has continued to decline, as you said he's become a different player. Even when Real Madrid beat
Celta Vigo, Eden Hazard missed a penalty, whereas Benzema, who was the main penalty taker, showed an extraordinary attitude by allowing Hazard
to take the penalty kick. But the opportunity was wasted after Hazard's penalty was saved by the Celta Vigo goalkeeper. This shows how Eden Hazard
has lost his confidence. Fortunately Ancelotti is very wise and still defends Hazard, saying Hazard is still in the process of rediscovering his best form.
But I don't think Hazard will ever find his best form in La Liga, because it seems that La Liga's style of play doesn't suit him. The best solution
in my opinion Hazard is to move back to the Premier League, where Hazard has proven to be finding his best game with Chelsea.

Then regarding Barcelona's defense, I think it's quite solid, in two games in La Liga only conceded 1 goal, it shows Barcelona's defense is quite solid.
But it's much better if Jules Kounde can be played immediately, it will make Barcelona's defense stronger and maybe it can become a team with
the best defense in La Liga. But to be able to register Kounde it looks like Barcelona are waiting for Depay and Aubameyang to move to other clubs,
but I believe Barcelona can register Kounde before the transfer window closes.
