La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Ronaldo had really good memories with Real Madrid but if Benzema gets well then I won't be expecting a move for Ronaldo.

That's was then, it will be wrong to think Ronaldo will still add the same value to real madrid like those days when he was playing for Real Madrid. The reason many clubs are not putting in Ronaldo is not just about the money to sign him but is age, he can't be very active.

Ronaldo and is age right now is not real madrid would want. If Ronaldo comes back to real madrid I don't think he will still be playing the same way like then when he was in Real Madrid. Ronaldo won't be good for Real Madrid.

I have never seen Madrid buy back a player that they have sold, and they will treat Cristiano the same. cristiano is almost 40 years old and I predict he will retire in the next 3 years at most. if madrid buys him next season then madrid will lose the chance to get another good player, madrid must immediately buy a new striker in the winter transfer market.

Ronaldo had really good memories with Real Madrid but if Benzema gets well then I won't be expecting a move for Ronaldo.

It doesn't matter a lot. Life must go on. Ronaldo was feeling so bad with his condition in MU. He was offering 6 months contract until the end of season but madrid rejecting him again. It seems like all of about him already rejected by so many people. I know that the chance for him to comeback to the real madrid is very very small or it has zero chance. The fact that if madrid was looking for young potential player that can be used as future asset like benzema. That's why some lists already linked to the real madrid.
that's sad for ronaldo. It's better for him to offer his service to the medium tier club in la liga. He might get a chance for that. Decreasing his salary was also become the main concern.

[Velvet78]

Ronaldo hasn't played properly in the English Premier League for a long time. He had chances in the Europa League but it wasn't enough for him. In this situation I don't know how much he can be helpful for Real Madrid in case of a transfer for real in January. Real Madrid might want to think about such transfer seriously depending on Benzema's condition indeed. But it doesn't seem like Benzema's return will take too long.

Ronaldo had really good memories with Real Madrid but if Benzema gets well then I won't be expecting a move for Ronaldo.

Real Madrid management does not believe in emotions. They believe in efficiency. Ronaldo is undoubtedly a legend in Madrid. But now it is true that Ronaldo is not in good form, he is not playing well. Why would Real Madrid management waste money on a team of players with high wages like Ronaldo at the moment? Where we can easily see that the Madrid management is now focused on building a youth-oriented team. In such circumstances, the possibility of adding the 37-year-old Ronaldo to the squad seems very unlikely to me. Madrid wants to build a squad that can play together for a long time. And so I don't think we will see Ronaldo in the Madrid squad, most likely we will see Ronaldo with Bayern Munich.

I assume Ronaldo would be ready to take a significant pay cut. Because he is ready to sign for a team playing in the Champions League and leave Manchester United immediately. However we still don't know anything about what Real Madrid think about this. Maybe they really don't think of making a signing like you said.

About Bayern Munich, I don't know. Maybe they won't rush for signing a centre-forward in January while they are doing well. Choupo-Moting is doing quite nice there and they might want to wait for the end of the season to make a signing.

Bad news for Barcelona, Lewandowski got a ban from playing in 3 League games. This is because Lewandowski got a red card and was considered disrespectful to the referee. If counted then Lewandowski will miss games against Espanyol, Atletico Madrid and Getafe. Of course they will have a hard time. Currently Lewandowski's statistics are very good, 19 games with 18 goals and 4 assists. But I heard Lewandowski will appeal because he thinks it is not insulting to the referee.

I also read this news.
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/63652286
Barcelona with 3 matches without Lewandowski might be quite influential, especially in the attacking line. In the end, they have to continue to maximize their performance even without the star. With this, Barcelona's matches against Atletico Madrid and Real Betis may be a little more difficult for them.

Here, Real Madrid may have little chance if Barcelona make mistakes and if they lose one of them. But on the other hand, Benzema also often experiences injuries so sometimes he is unable to play optimally at the club.

[Republikcoin.com]

Real Madrid will not buy Ronaldo because it will pose a risk to the club which is already very good and has a team that is already compact, when Ronaldo at Real Madrid may not last long either and the influence of Ronaldo's old age I am sure will be a full consideration for Real Madrid prefers to buy players at a young age.

I also agree with what you are saying, because age is old for Ronaldo, which the Real Madrid team cannot tolerate. Currently, Real Madrid doesn't only need a star, but Real Madrid also needs players who are young and have good achievements in other teams if they want to buy players. Because it will help Real Madrid to stay on track with its best performance in La Liga and also the Champions League.

Ronaldo is now a very controversial product in the transfer market, most top clubs might not be comfortable signing him because he might criticize them at will. Ronaldo is now too big to be controlled by any manager or club management. I think he should start his own club, where he would have full control over the the club.

Ronaldo will not return to Real Madrid in any way, as you said this man is very controversial for a top club, moreover Real Madrid already has young players with potential. I'm talking about Vini Jr and Rodrygo, this both young men have the ability to shine in the future, while Ronaldo is too ambitious and old man. I hope that Benzema injury will getting better after the break, so Real Madrid will focus on title and trophy again.

Rumor has it that Ronaldo is interested in a move to Real Madrid. But I don't think Real Madrid will waste money on Ronaldo now. Real Madrid are not interested in wasting money. They won't invest in an older player now. They are looking for young talented players, and they want long service from any player. Also, Real Madrid is now looking to build a youth-oriented team. Ronaldo is a good player no doubt. But don't forget Ronaldo is 37 years old now. He will probably retire in two more seasons.

If Real Madrid wanted to transfer C. Ronaldo, they would have sent him an offer during the summer transfer season because Ronaldo's desire to leave the club is not a new event, but he stayed with the team because he could not get an offer during the transfer period. Real Madrid don't waste money like you said. I think they are watching the strikers in Italy Serie A right now, especially they will make an offer for a striker like Osimhen and Lautaro Martinez, I guess they are waiting for the end of the season for the new striker transfer, yes it's just a guess.

I think Real Madrid's main goal now is to strengthen their midfield this season. The Madrid management must now find replacements for Luka Modric and Toni Kroos. Madrid has the experienced player Benzema in the forward. Takahara also has young talents like Vini and Rodrygo. As these two players gradually gain experience, Madrid's attack will become stronger. Ancelotti still needs to find a replacement for Benzema. However, Madrid will not face too many problems even if they do not add an experienced striker to the team this season. But I think their performance will deteriorate if they don't strengthen the midfield.

I think Real Madrid's main goal now is to strengthen their midfield this season. The Madrid management must now find replacements for Luka Modric and Toni Kroos.

They prepared to replace Modric, Kroos and Casemiro with Valverde, Camavinga and Tchouameni. So far we can confirm that Valverde is a great success and maybe Camavinga will be another successful replacement after looking at his performance in the past season and early of this season. Only Tchouameni is uncertain but he only joined Real Madrid in the summer. Maybe he needs more time to adapt to a new club.

Madrid has the experienced player Benzema in the forward. Takahara also has young talents like Vini and Rodrygo. As these two players gradually gain experience, Madrid's attack will become stronger. Ancelotti still needs to find a replacement for Benzema. However, Madrid will not face too many problems even if they do not add an experienced striker to the team this season. But I think their performance will deteriorate if they don't strengthen the midfield.

Benzema had an outstanding past season but it is likely affected him in this season. He got 5 injuries so far in this season and missed many matches. Maybe his age and the over playing in the past season affect his body fitness in this season.

I believe Real Madrid were not prepared for the absence of Benzema in this season. So far other players did good jobs to cover the absence of Benzema but in this long season, especially in Champions League, they really need Benzema return. In addition, having another good striker is a good option but remembered that Real Madrid failed with some young strikers recent years.

If counted then Lewandowski will miss games against Espanyol, Atletico Madrid and Getafe. Of course they will have a hard time. Currently Lewandowski's statistics are very good, 19 games with 18 goals and 4 assists.

Three matches were a lot. If barcelona will be facing tough game and loses in two matches and that gives real madrid opportunity to surpass barcelona and create gap again. Barcelona needs him. He has become a player that could save barcelona from the lose. Lewandowski has average almost 1 goal in any match which is very good at this moment. let's wait the result from his appeal for his ban. This may have small chance to be accepted. Barcelona can't perform aggressive without him as a striker.

But I heard Lewandowski will appeal because he thinks it is not insulting to the referee.

I doubt his appeal will give a good result for him. He may need to accept his ban from la liga in three league games.

Cristiano Ronaldo don't have a space in the madrid squad, definitely not under Carlo Ancelotti who's looking for young lads that will be doing the impossibilities for the club. Ronaldo is aging and not active as before, watching him play on the pitch in old Trafford is very dissapointing, his pattern of the game doesn't matchup with his teammates, and the coach have been disregarding his presence in the team and even kept him on the bench for such a long time. All Ronaldo needs is a UEFEA team with less stress required of him.

Since Real Madrid has potential strikers in the team, I don't think Real Madrid coach will embrace such mistake in this season because Benzema has demonstrated well in this la Liga league competition more than cristiano Ronaldo. I don't think, Real Madrid need cristiano Ronaldo to win this title because they have what it takes to maintain winning till they stand for final to showcase their skills to the whole world that they still remain the best team in this la Liga league competition. I think, cristiano Ronaldo age is seriously affecting him in this season, because he really missed many opportunities to score the highest goals in Manchester united but because of his age he miss used the opportunities.

There is no reason for Real Madrid to bring Ronaldo back to the Bernabeu, he is old, he cannot play much longer for Real Madrid. As long as Perez was still president of Real Madrid, it was very rare for him to recruit players who were old.
Ronaldo's presence will not make many changes to the Real Madrid squad, he will only warm up the bench because Ancelotti has more faith in the young players in the Madrid squad. The best solution for finding a replacement for Benzema was already planned when the transfer market reopened, Real Madrid prioritized talented young players rather than bringing in players who were nearing retirement.

In the end, without Benzema, their chances of competing on all fronts were significantly reduced. To overcome this, Ancelotti certainly has to rack his brains to find the perfect replacement for Madrid's front lines. A number of alternative forward players could not be relied upon any longer and caused the statistics on the front lines to greatly decrease.

In the January transfer market it will be very difficult to get new players as needed. So to find an alternative, it is appropriate for Ancelotti to return to repatriate Cristiano Ronaldo, in my opinion he is the perfect replacement for Madrid's front line in the short term. CR7 can still play at the highest level, even though he is old, he is still very fit physically.

No doubt this will be big lost for Barcelona because so far Lewandowski is important player on forward lines even he was almost be scoring goals everytime he played but Barcelona still have Ansu Fati or Ousmane Dembele who can playing on Lewandowski position so probably Xavi will attempts to playing them for upcoming matches although in the term of goals productivities these players were lack of goals compared to Lewandowski but so far they are the best options but apparently although other players can be the replacement of Lewandowski but in my opinion Barcelona probably will be hard to scoring goals considering they depend too much on Lewandowski and this is similar such as Manchester City with Haaland that when he unable to play Manchester City seems to be stuck and can't scoring goals with very well

The red card that Lewandowski conceived before the international break was not necessary, many people were seeing it as a means to avoid playing further for Barcelona in order not to be injured because he wants to represent his dear country, he decided to get the red card for himself forgetting that after the World Cup there is still club and he will miss up to three consecutive matches which would not be a good one for Barcelona team and for his own individual record if he feels that he was not disrespectful enough to the referee has the right to appear and the result of the appellation will determine.

real has been confirmed so many times about such rumour but i don't know why people are still talking about that. Ronaldo has been even begging with real to be contracted for 6 months. I think that ronaldo has no chance to be placed in any team.
I think that ronaldo must think again to get a team that was not a big team. Ronaldo has been rejected by real madrid. I don't even why people keep believing if he will be going back again to the real madrid as so many confirmation has been made by real madrid regarding him.

Yes that's correct. there is no reason for Real Madrid to bring Ronaldo back to the Santiago Bernabeu. at Ronaldo's current age, not much can be expected from Ronaldo. besides that, he has a big ego and always wants to be a regular player even though his performance is clearly dropping.

as you said, Ronaldo's presence will not make a difference in the Real Madrid squad. in fact, he could have messed up all the plans that had been drawn up by Carlo Ancelotti before. after all, Real Madrid currently has several talented young attackers.
so, there is no reason for Real Madrid to bring Ronaldo to the Santiago Bernabeu. In terms of potential replacements for Karim Benzema, I think Don Carlo already has several names on the manhunt in the upcoming transfer window.

[KTChampions]

I have also heard about the rumours like Ronaldo might come back to Real Madrid for 6 months. It is because of Benzema's ongoing injury of course. However as far as I know Benzema is returning in a few weeks finally. If he really returns in this time period then I don't think Real Madrid would even think about making an offer for Ronaldo. Because they won't be in need of a striker anymore. Benzema would enter the starting eleven right away and his substitute would be Rodrygo.

I know Rodrygo is a right winger normally. But he has played as a centre-forward more than the number of matches as a right winger in this season. There is Mariano also but I assume that he would be released by the team as his contract expires in the summer as well.

Such a return is impossible simply because of the status of the parties. Real Madrid are too great a club to turn to a player who left them for help, and Ronaldo is too great to go back somewhere just to help a little, and not be the "return of the legend" as was the case with United.
Apparently Real wants to take a risk in some sense and try to endure the season until the end with the composition that they have. Looks pretty risky given Benzema's instability.

I feel like it won't be that much of a big deal, it's just three games and Barcelona is good enough to beat them. Espanyol and Getafe should be quite easy, it shouldn't take that long if you ask me, which leaves just ATM and that could be a trouble for them, there is a possibility, but if they can play without him and win, then they will get him back all relax and rested, world cup will tire him a bit, and he will rest during these games and get back in shape.

It's early in the season enough that 3 games wouldn't be a problem if they can get 6 or more points out of them. They may end up losing the lead during this time, but they can earn it back later on.

[nara1892]

I heard the news about Asensio who is ready to leave Real Madrid because his position is now limited due to being unable to compete with other players like Rodrygo. Indeed, this move has been heard since last summer, several top team names have often been linked with him, such as 2 teams from Italy and 2 other teams from England. But the latest news is that he is also being targeted by Xavi Hernandez to help Barcelona. Marco Asensio himself did not rule out that maybe in the future he would play for Barcelona, but for now he prefers to focus first on Real Madrid.
