La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[KTChampions]

Can they still buy players? After spending incredible money last season. Not to mention that with the salary list of each player, they will need a lot of money. It looks like it could violate FFP rules. This season Barcelona proved a failure for the UCL, with the same player Xavi may need to improve the mentality of the players. Rumours Messi will return, it looks like it could help them in the UCL. But now that won't happen, it looks like Xavi has to look for non-star players with good games and low prices.

Even though Barcelona has complicated financial problems, but I think they can buy some of the players they want, certainly not about Messi. Xavi has shown enough interest in plans to bring in a defensive midfielder to replace Busquets, that is his priority at the moment and maybe he will get one. Regardless if it's a star or not, but I think Xavi will try to get it next season.

It seems that the League has not yet lifted the restrictions on Barcelona and in order to buy someone some players will have to get rid of (even taking into account the players who have already left). Today I read that Javi has some difficult choices (who to keep who to sell/let go), but in any case, he will have to make these choices. An unpleasant story, but Barcelona itself is to blame for driving itself into a pre-bankrupt state.

Barcelona is still possible to buy players, they seem still have funds for new players. But surely they probably won't target signing top players with high prices, Barcelona looks for good players with cheap prices. Or Barcelona will try to negotiate the players with free agent status. I assume Barcelona will focus on signing defenders (left/right backs) or defensive midfielders.

Yep, Barcelona failed in UCL & Europa League. So, I believe Xavi will do something to build more Barcelona squad. One of the ways is to sign new players who can support the current players to be stronger. Barcelona seems to target winning UCL trophy next season. They must target a more prestigious trophy after they won La Liga trophy this season.

It is not grandiose to do but with conditions like that they must move quickly to vacate several players so that their cash is more stable, especially the demands of FFP are clear there that they must try to vacate around more than 170 million to be able to make their salary conditions safe and when in this case they want players who are certainly in the UCL then inevitably they have to vacate more than that because we must realize the vakue of the player will be much bigger for now especially in terms of salaries.
The risk now is only how Barcelona can get more fresh funds in order to patch up their current condition because if they only continue to add players without seeing their condition too it is the same as suicide.

They are good in swapping players in order to get extra wages allocated for transfer fund , we might seeing their crucial player leaving and get a lower quality player , they have been practicing this for at least 3-4 years ago even before the corona virus hit us all.

At least under xavi barcelona looks a bit better , they should have been suffering the whole season, lucky barcelona.

I really think Barcelona should be considered in the way they pay their players. They give away too much salary in my opinion. If you look at Real Madrid I think we will find the salary to be more deserving for the Real Madrid players. We all know how players like Sergio Busquets and Pique were getting huge amount of salary even when they were not performing well enough.

Lionel Messi is already on his way to MLS as far as I know. Barcelona will have to get over him. Lionel Messi has moved on and so should Barcelona. I am still not expecting too much from Barcelona in the Champions League competition, to be honest.

That has already passed where the option that was carried out by Barcelona at that time was to implement a salary cut that was almost quite large which at that time they were hit by a financial crisis but they had succeeded in doing this. Even for De Jong was willing to cut his salary and his loyalty to Barcelona still the same, namely staying with Barcelona last season.

Indeed this reflects that Barcelona must be able to adjust the level of spending they make for each season because the crisis finances they faced in the previous season have completely not yet improved this season. Especially since recently they have been constrained by financial problems which have prevented Barcelona from repatriating Lionel Messi.

Barcelona looked like they had a great defending in the La Liga by conceding only 20 goals in the whole season. They could have even conceded less than that but they became relieved quite earlier about winning the league title so they started to care less about the remaining matches. However there wasn't the same look in the Champions League as they had serious struggles.

But now they have started to make the defense line younger. Because it wasn't the kind of a job that they would have done with old defenders like Pique and so on. I think the situation with centre-backs looks good for now. But I also agree that they had better sign a right-back especially. Because there is only Sergi Roberto there and they would have bigger difficulties in case of an injury.

When it comes to left-back there is already Marcos Alonso and Alejandro Balde is also a new internal transfer who is 19 years old. But if they don't want to continue with Alonso then they can look for a left-back as well.

Next season will be a new challenge for Xavi, he will be tested in the Champions League as the most prestigious competition on the European continent. The current squad has been proven capable of giving trophies to Barcelona, but Xavi needs to bring in a few more players so that his team can provide competition in the Champions League.

Can they still buy players? After spending incredible money last season. Not to mention that with the salary list of each player, they will need a lot of money. It looks like it could violate FFP rules. This season Barcelona proved a failure for the UCL, with the same player Xavi may need to improve the mentality of the players. Rumours Messi will return, it looks like it could help them in the UCL. But now that won't happen, it looks like Xavi has to look for non-star players with good games and low prices.

It looks like Barcelona can't do it, but if they can sell one of their players then maybe they can buy another player. At the moment, Barcelona is still confused about finding new players and with the strict rules of FPP it could get them back in trouble. But I think the current Barcelona squad is capable enough to be able to hunt for the La Liga title next season, it's just that if they can compete for the champions league it seems they still can't do it because it's been proven enough that with two consecutive seasons they failed to prove it and had to be willing to go down to the European league.

The Barcelona team made an incredible comeback this season from the previous season and managed to secure the La Liga title. If coach Xavi adds some new players this time, we can hope that this team will be able to compete in the Champions League in the next season.

In La Liga, Barcelona had made a comeback at the start of the season and they were very confident of being able to shift Real Madrid's position to become La Liga champions this season, which was a good result. For next season's champions league, it is certain that Barcelona can do it, but if they are to advance to the quarter-finals, they are still unable to. New players are indeed very important for Barcelona because they are still having a hard time winning with a landslide score like the previous season and I think they will repeat the same thing if in that situation. And as I said above, maybe the only way for Barcelona to achieve this is to sell one of their star players so they can buy 2 or 3 new players to strengthen their attack line.

For now it seems that Barcelona is still lacking the best players and if you have to sell top players just to get 2 or 3 players I don't think it will be a guarantee for the future Barcelona will be stronger in the next season even in the champions league.
But if the management is able to figure out how to get new players without having to sell top players I think that will be more effective and guarantee more performance improvement in the season to come.

Barcelona selling their top players won't help them In their competition next season. Barcelona needs to retain their  old players and to sign any player to support the Old players in getting a better performance in La Liga and Champions League next season. Barcelona shouldn't be too comfortable wuth the championship they won in La Liga but they need to prepare themselves better next season compilations.

It is true that as soon as Barcelona won the league, they became less careful about their post and the goals they concede. What they only cared about was for Lewandowski to remain the highest goal scorer as Benzema was following him behind with few goals difference.
It is nice that the old legends of Barcelona are leaving, my fear is that they shouldn't leave with all.tje experiences and allow the club to suffer experience.

[Leviathan.007]

I guess Xavi is the happiest person in La Liga because he got what he wanted to get with his team where they know him as a legend and he is coaching Barcelona for the first time his coach in Europa and top teams, Barcelona is in a financial situation in which they can't spend money like Real Madrid and this definitely could affect the results of Barcelona but in the end, Barcelona won the title.

But in the next season, I think Real Madrid can buy better players to have a closer race with Barcelona for the title.

i don't think Barcelona are still in a bad financial state, they were still able to bring multiple players and not for that cheap, it doesn't look like they are having troubles financially at all.

Yes it's seems that Barcelona is doing better in the financial matters and they are getting stronger by the time, of course the last la Liga trophy also brought too many financial benefits because their players value increased and also too many players are now ready to play with Barcelona and this bring many opportunities to them

It's not only Xavi, even Lewandowski, is a player who is quite happiest with Barcelona this season. Because he has only had one season with Barcelona, ​​he immediately becomes one of the stickers who is quite aggressive in scoring goals. In making purchases for players, I think Barcelona will exercise the option of selling players first, where many Barcelona players are reported to be released in the transfer window. I think Xavi and Laporta will be able to make significant changes for Barcelona in the transfer window. They have a lot of good quality players and just need to balance their strength by bringing in 2 or 3 players. Additionally they can take the option to sell some players to match their spending.

Barcelona are certainly one of the strongest clubs in Laliga, capable of signing any player on their radar, but their finances are uneven and they have unresolved difficulties with the FFP organization. Both Xavi Hernandez and Juan Laporta are working on a good project to help the club return to its former glory. They will plan critical signings that will benefit the club, and one thing I admire about the blaugrana is that they have good judgment in bringing in promising players. The club will most likely dispose some of their players in order to acquire finances to sign new players during the transfer season.

Barcelona is indeed great even though it is in various problems such as financial problems and being accused of a bribery scandal to the referee, but Barcelona can win the Spanish league this season. I also think that with Barcelona's achievements this season, Xavi deserves to be happy.

But Xavi's real job is next season
If last season we managed to finish runner-up and this season we won Laliga, then next season it is clear that the target is the UCL. Can Xavi go to class?
If you look in the mirror for next season, the toughest competitor is, of course, Real Madrid. Especially now that Real Madrid has started to build a stronger squad. If this season Real Madrid only brought in Rudiger and Tchouameni, then next season they will already have Bellingham, Wonderkid Endrick Felipe and are certain to bring in a mature striker to replace Benzema. The question is whether Xavi is ready to fight next season?

Unquestionably, Barcelona has been a force in La Liga drawing great players to the club. However, given their unsolved problems with the FFP organisation and their financial status, there is grounds for concern. Juan Laporta and Xavi Hernandez are actively working on a plan to revitalise the team and bring it back to its previous glory. They will concentrate on making strategic acquisitions that will help the squad tremendously. I have the utmost respect for Barcelona ability to spot and develop talented young players. The club will probably need to dispose some of its current players during the upcoming transfer season in order to raise money for new arrivals.

Seeing the rubbish you advertise in your signature, what you think doesn't have much credibility.

Barcelona had tremendous economic problems at the beginning of the season that they temporarily saved in a headlong rush, mortgaging part of their future. Having won the league, the problems have been alleviated but not solved. I translate part of an article:

Can Newcastle solve FC Barcelona's financial problems?

Even with serious financial problems, FC Barcelona will have to sell for more than €100m in order to balance the books. A figure that could be almost completed by a big sale, such as that of Raphinha. Newcastle, who will play in the next edition of the Champions League, are not forgetting the Brazilian.

I think the fact that they had such a great defense even for that long was something unexpected by many. Araujo was a "decent" player last season but wasn't this amazing, he was near perfect this season, Kounde was new and didn't expected to fit this perfectly neither, Ter stegen is getting older, Balde a youth player that nobody expected to even play this many games let alone be good, all in all there were nobody that really shine through the list and yet they played amazingly well together.

Rest of the team wasn't all that bad neither, maybe UCL happened early enough on the season that they weren't used to the tactic yet, if they can keep the core of the team together they might be a lot better next season, not expecting them to win UCL but at least will be out of group stages this time around.

Indeed, for this season Barcelona has a bad experience in his finances, even though he came out as a champion this season, it could not cover their deficit finances.
If Barcelona wants to improve the opening, the option is to sell a number of players to cover it up, selling Rafinha might be a solution, but Rafinha is still sufficiently needed as an attacking midfielder, middle, wing with other or other he has multi -functional in various positions.

I think the fact that they had such a great defense even for that long was something unexpected by many.

But my view, although basically Barcelona has new and young players in their defense, we really don't know how new players in Bacelona will adapt well or not, but I really believe the decision taken by Xavi is a strategy to strengthen Barcelona.
And it seems that next season, if the core players in Barcelona are still with the same person, most likely next season will be dominated by Barcelona, considering that Real Madrid as the strongest rivals they do not have a solid coomposition , of course it will make Real Madrid fangs disappear.

Yes it's seems that Barcelona is doing better in the financial matters and they are getting stronger by the time, of course the last la Liga trophy also brought too many financial benefits because their players value increased and also too many players are now ready to play with Barcelona and this bring many opportunities to them

It's not yet happening. Barcelona has not yet paid its debt. It has a lot of debt and it's still focusing to reconstruct its financial as per laliga's order. It's caused by barcelona will not able to buy the new player if it doesn't have good financial at this moment.

Some players already speculated to leave from the club very soon. In my opinion if barcelona is not yet strong enough to face UCL next season. Xavi needs to make sure barcelona will have a better defensive lines compared with this season.

barcelona played so well in the domestic league but it's not able to go to the last 16 caused by barcelona was not strong enough to beat intermilan

That proves that if barcelona needs to buy some good defenders to make its defensive line even stronger than before.

Barcelona has performed amazingly in La Liga this time. And Barcelona won the title, I would like to give credit to Xavi, the coach of the team, and Lewandowski, one of the attacking players, for making such a good thing.
