La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[snipie]

1. Real Madrid - has just won the title, has good squad, very good coach, no internal problems I don't think they will have problems wining another title.
2. Atletico Madrid - this season I think they will be over Barca, but not good enough to win the title.
3. Barcelona - the internal problems that are right now at Barca makes them weaker, also the new coach did not have notable results at club level lately.

1- winning the title or not depends mostly on the other clubs results especially Barca.
2- using the same tactic will guarantee a good spot but not the title..
3- I heard they kept the same defence line with 4-2-3-1, seriously? We will see how far they will go...

Very good article today in Marca about the President of Barcelona Bartomeu and all his current problems: https://www.marca.com/en/football/barcelona/2020/09/09/5f53ec1e268e3edf078b4609.html

The real question is whether he can sort it all out or his time in Barcelona is over and it's time for new people and new ideas in Barcelona?

I would like to see the Atletico Madrid final against Real Madrid, with the victory of the first team!
The last two years of the game in the final of La Liga should be rewarded!

Bartomeu has a lot of problems, I'm not sure he can solve all the problems that occur. Maybe he should resign as president of Barcelona,
because Barcelona's achievements are decreasing. I strongly agree that Barcelona needs to be led by someone new, so that some changes
can occur for Barcelona's future.

It seems to me that Messi will show a phenomenal performance in the upcoming season. And this will be his farewell gift to all Barcelona fans. If the team supports him, then Barcelona can win both the Championship and the Spanish Cup, or maybe take the Champions League.

Even if he does that, we all know Messi isn't Maradona or R9 who can carry the team by himself. If he won't have any good players and a fine coach to order them, Messi won't be able to do anything. See how he did with the national team of Argentina when he plays with bad players.

Messi isn't mentally strong enough to handle that kind of stuff.

I don't think he has any real ambitions to change much anymore. And since he will not have the decency to resign, he will probably sit out his term. He has already decided not to stand for election next March, so by this time next year someone else will be president.

But who knows, maybe the Barca members get together the 16.500 signatures that are needed for a no-confidence vote against Bartomeu and manage to remove him even before the end of his term (https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/thousands-barcelona-members-sign-censure-motion-against-josep-maria-bartomeu-after-lionel-messi-saga-a4544571.html).

For this it should be on all tv broadcasting. Because fans will be very happy with this information. Maybe before the match and break the second half will be more informative with this, and the data can also be more valid than what commentators says in our country.  ^ahaaay

Indeed this is good, but we know to become the Official Partner of La Liga broadcasts will be expensive, will there be cuts in broadcasts so that local television only broadcasts matches without the new features of the official La Liga broadcast. I thought it would be boring because we only saw people talking. Last year this has happened in my country with local TV. 

So, it's nice to hear that they are still improving things.

 
You are right, but I don't think all countries can enjoy this, including mine. It is quite expensive and maybe the local TV in my country cannot afford it.

Who can guarantee it? No one knows, mate. Also, Messi cannot show his best if he plays with bad teammates. I don't try to say the current Barcelona players are bad, but I don't see them as good as the players in Xavi/Iniesta era. In the previous season, I didn't see they play as a solid Barca club like some years ago. Moreover, they have a new coach, the players should adapt to a style of play applied by the new coach. Messi may take time to fit with the play of style of the new coach. So, I am not really sure he will directly show his best performance very soon.

12/09 is when the season starts...
I have noticed that the Spanish league transfer market this season is nothing special and Messi did not leave Barca. btw, I will always support Real Madrid.

Bartomeu is responsible for many very bad decisions of the Barcelona management  lately such as buying players and selecting coaches who didn't fit the system and football philosophy of the club bad finances, neglect of young and talented players,  conflict with Messi. ...
Because of all this Barcelona didn't have good results and I think all sincere Barcelona fans will be happy when Bartomeu finally leaves the club.

I think that La Liga even without good transfer of players this upcoming season is still the second best league to watch in Europe after the Premier League.Still it is a very interesting league and it will be even more interesting if in this season also other teams start fighting hard for the title like Atletico and Sevilla for example and not leave everything to be disputed between Real and Barcelona.

[Daniel91]

Is Real just changing their club policy and ending their relationship with Jorge Mendes?
The overview of their relationship is magnificent: Nine players and 484m euros worth of transfers in 13 years!
Has this great relationship finally come to an end?

Cholo Simeone has been found positive for the COVID...

The whole teams should now be in quarantine and they probably skip their 1s turn (20-09-2019)

[LTU_btc]

La Liga season started today. While Real, Barca, Sevilla, Atletico, Getafe and Elche skip first round, 3 games were played today. All of them ended without big surprises, but all were too tricky to bet for me. 4 more games on Sunday, including Valencia derby.

Cholo Simeone has been found positive for the COVID...

The whole teams should now be in quarantine and they probably skip their 1s turn (20-09-2019)

I'm not sure that they are going to skip their first game. According to Covid -19 rules, La Liga allows to postpone only one game through the whole season because of positive virus cases in the team:
https://en.as.com/en/2020/09/06/football/1599401223_040422.html
So, if they won't find much more infected players and staff in the team, it's most likely that Atletico are going to play next weekend and Simeone will be replaced by his assistant.

Indeed, the transfer market this season is not very interesting for the Spanish league. If only, Messi left Barca this season. Maybe it will make a scene. But unfortunately only issues and issues.

@qomarian95 I believe that this is the calm before the storm, because in the next summer transfer window both the teams will spend big and buy top class player’s.

Also Barcelona doesn’t wish to spend much now because Koeman only has time till March, because once the elections take place, and if the opposition candidate wins then he’ll be sacking Koeman, therefore spending too much money on transfers now doesn’t make sense from their point of view.

Furthermore Real Madrid want Mbappé and Pogba and both of them are not available this year, hence they’re saving their money for next year’s transfer window to purchase them.

If koeman does great and changes a Barcelona team which many thought was the worst in a very long time, with Barcelona having a rich history of good football. Opposition wining the election will go for what is good for the club and if koeman is that man then they will support/stick to him,

Bayern's goalscorer when the UCL quarter-finals returned from his loan, we remember he scored two goals and this added to Barca's pain at the time and I think that will stick around until later. Coutinho's comeback is likely to upset him a bit because the jersey number he usually wears is given to Griezmann. Griezmann also looks happy because it is his favorite jersey number.

any player depends on his teammates. no matter how great the player would be, but without partners he is nothing. Messi cannot decide the fate of a match alone, especially against strong opponents.
