La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Joao Felix has shown his intention to leave Atletico Madrid recently according to I have heard. Atletico Madrid actually seemed to have plans for him by not extending his loan at Chelsea. It is reported that they even increased his asking price to 100 million euros. However the player still seems to be keen on signing for a different team.

That team seems like PSG now. However I don't feel like PSG would pay that much to sign Felix. At least he wouldn't be their first choice if they want to pay that much in my opinion. I have heard about an offer by Aston Villa for Felix as well but their not being in the Champions League hindered them from signing him.

Atletico don't really want Joao either but it seems like they don't want to lose money and it's obviously difficult I guess when you want Joao at that price.
He is a pretty good player but seeing from the slightly declining performance and Simeone also does not want him for the squad plan I think rather than killing his career and spending more money on wasted salaries it would be better to let him go but on the other hand reasonable price considerations must be considered because 100 is also still very large for a Joao.
Aston Villa are the only ones who are most serious but something like this will obviously be difficult because 100 million for them won't be easy to come by either.

Florentino Pérez said they plan to sign Mbappe for the next season. But considering the current situation of Mbappe, I assume Pérez may try to sign him now. Moreover, Real Madrid still has no a top striker, they only signed Joselu. I think Joselu isn't enough to compete for UCL title.

Indeed, after the departure of Benzema, they still do not have a replacement that is at least equal. And with Mbappe, this would be an extraordinary thing, but it's still wishful thinking at this time, because it's still just rumours. But indeed, the rumors in the current transfer market are stronger than before. If previously PSG could make such an attractive offer for Mbappe, this season might be different again. But, will Mbappe return to how he used to be, pressing his desire to go to Real Madrid and stay at PSG for certain reasons and offers.

After Karim Benzema left Real Madrid in this transfer season, Real Madrid could have replaced him with any other star if they wanted, but they did not take any haste in this regard. Since their main striker has left the club, there will be a lot of discussion and criticism if his replacement isn't better, and more importantly, the transfer could affect their club, so they haven't added another striker to their squad so far. Real Madrid are just waiting for Mbappe and the way they are waiting, it looks like Real Madrid will sign Mbappe. If Mbappe comes to Real Madrid, Mbappe would be one of the best replacements for Karim Benzema. The rumors of this season are much more than the rumors about Mbappe and Real Madrid in other seasons, so it is expected that Mbappe will come to Real Madrid very soon.

But, will Mbappe return to how he used to be, pressing his desire to go to Real Madrid and stay at PSG for certain reasons and offers.

Real Madrid still difficult looking for replacement Karim Benzema after tough negotiations for signing Mbappe, Joselu as current transfer for filling Karim Benzema position I don't think has the same level because his career spent with mediocre teams and this season Joselu failed help Espanyol relegated to Segunda Division. Florentino Perez looks not sure want to sign Mbappe in this season because prefer waiting when his contract expiry with PSG next season.

Its difficult for Carlo Ancelotti how to manage well performance next season in La Liga or Champion League after Benzema departure and not easy sign the same replacement with Benzema level. But Real Madrid have full active in transfer window signing many potential midfielder from Jude Bellingham Brahim Diaz and last young potential recruitment Arda Güler.

Yes, Real Madrid are very worried about their attack line after the departure of Benzema. Ancelotti will certainly be very confused with such a situation. He must really work hard to be able to do something that is expected of Joselu. In his last season with Real Madrid, of course, Ancelotti really wanted to win the La Liga title, but I doubt very much his expectations given the current squad for the Whites.

If Mbappe fails to get this season Perez should have brought in an alternative striker like Firmino who is quite experienced but who would have thought that Perez would be more focused on recruiting young players to complete the Real Madrid squad.

Arsenal first pre season match result didn't run well because they only can able to playing draw against the team from Germany second division Nürnberg and yesterday Arsenal was playing with some of their main players such as William Saliba, Gabriel, Thomas Partey and their main goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale and during the match i can see Arsenal were very dominate but they had a hard time breaking down Nürnberg defense because since the beginning of match Nürnberg has displayed solid defense which make Arsenal players looks frustrate and they even several times to wasted the opportunity to scores goal and Arteta has been confirmed that he hasn't satisfied to see Arsenal performance because he thought Arsenal should be able to win the match and he will be evaluate this result

It was a surprised match seeing Arsenal struggle to defeat FC Nurnberg, but they made their defense stronger for Arsenal strikers not to have access freely like the way they used to have access to other team goalpost freely. But the match ended up draw 1:1, that made many people think that Arsenal coach has a lot of work to do in this summer to impart the strikers how to achieve early goals in any competition which is very important to any potential team to embrace on time so that there will be increase of confidence to win the particular competition. I believe, Arsenal will improve next season if their coach can work on their defenders because this match really review how powerless their defenders are to allowed their opponent to have access to their goalpost to achieved a goal.

Vitor Roque is quite popular recently. I see his transfer news to Barcelona like everywhere. I didn't know about him much until Barcelona signed him. They paid 40 million euros for the fee and who knows maybe this can turn into a very advantageous deal for Barcelona in the future. If he is really that much talented of course.

The guy is only 18 years old now but he will be 19 until joining Barcelona officially by next summer. Barcelona are actually on a new project like building a brand new team with youngsters. Roque can be an important part of this project if he works hard. He really loves this team seemingly so I guess he would like to leave a good impression on everyone.

Vítor Roque is just 18 years old and his first season with Brazilian Serie A club Athletico Paranaense is impressive which give him good reputation for the bright future and Barcelona done right thing with having very lucrative deal of eight years which will keep him here as releasing clause is also nearly €500m even most of the details are not available but his performance and way of play is giving amazing stats with Manchester United was also in hunt for him, but they fail to bring him to Old Trafford even they were ready to spend nearly €100m for him but his desire playing for Barcelona bring him here in NOU Camp which is now feeling good.

Right now Robert Lewandowski is their first choice but still Barcelona done good job as now they can feel comfortable and have good chance for giving their best in Champions League as well which is surely important for them in next season.

If a club can grow up their young players good enough to use in their squad, that club has a sustainable future. Even with limited finance, budget for transfer and salary for star players, that club can survive well and avoid relegation. With big clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona, having good academies will help their clubs to save money spent for transfers and also can help them to maintain their club tradition.

Youth home-grown players would have big love for the club and understand more about values of the club than star players bought from other clubs on transfer market.

Real Madrid and Barcelona have always had quality young players in their squads, both La Liga giants have academies that produce quality young players. Currently there are many young soccer players who already have quality games, this is inseparable from the guidance of the club. These clubs will give long-term contracts to talented young players with fantastic release clauses to increase the enthusiasm of other young players to continue to develop in order to get the same opportunity.

Young players can also be used as a club's long-term project, another reason for clubs to bring in young players as an asset and investment in the future. The young players currently owned by Real Madrid and Barcelona have bright futures, some of them have above average talent, they are already regular players at their respective clubs, this really helps their development to become star players in the future.

It is reported that they even increased his asking price to 100 million euros. However the player still seems to be keen on signing for a different team.

Some teams are approaching him right now. Atletico madrid wants to sell him as soon as possible. Some clubs have been showing their interests toward him. The only problem is felix has not yet showing which club that makes him interested to join in the club. I hear that if MU has been also try to approaching him but felix rejects it. MU has lost its chance to recruit felix from atletico madrid. I think that PSG gonna be the club that will able to secure him from atletico madrid.

That team seems like PSG now. However I don't feel like PSG would pay that much to sign Felix. At least he wouldn't be their first choice if they want to pay that much in my opinion. I have heard about an offer by Aston Villa for Felix as well but their not being in the Champions League hindered them from signing him.

I do agree with you. Felix seems keen with PSG. He is rejecting offers from EPL club. The way for felix to join in PSG becomes even closer than before. He gonna be coached by enrique.
His performance with chelsea was so bad. I don't even think this transfer gonna be a successful transfer for PSG next season.

100 million euros for a player like Joaa Felix? I think any club would be reluctant to spend that kind of money on Joao Felix who hasn't played his best until now, even his initial debut at Chelsea was like a nightmare because he got a red card and his game wasn't impressive.
He reportedly does not have a good relationship with Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone which is why he was loaned to Chelsea, he even hoped that Chelsea would make his position at the English club permanent, but unfortunately Pochettino does not see Joao Felix as a player with the potential to bring the blues back to the top so as to extend the loan.
Four clubs are reportedly interested in the Portuguese player, but PSG, who are the richest and most likely to sign him, are somewhat objecting to the value set by Atletico Madrid, so his fate will be decided by his current club whether Atletico intends to lower the value so he can be free from Atletico. Madrid.

Xavi Hernandez and Carlo Ancelotti are working relentlessly to improve their squad's performance in La Liga. Other clubs appear to be uninterested in the title, with no plans other than these two elite clubs. These best clubs have a competent working academy from which they get the majority of their talent. Real Madrid and Barcelona are adjusting to a new shift in their schedule, with the presence of new talents eager to demonstrate their abilities on the pitch for the potential clubs. This will only take a short time, but we will see outstanding performance from them as time goes on.

Real madrid and Barcelona are the only teams in laliga who are after winning trophies, these are the two teams that have always make the laliga competition very interesting. Barcelona and Real Madrid are equipping their team to be strong for  the season,  I'm sure the competition between this two team will be tough and interesting. Atletico Madrid is another team that is supposed to follow the footsteps of Real Madrid and Barcelona but I can't still see them making any effort of making their team tough for the season.

I believe Real Madrid's staid attitude at the moment after the departure of its main striker Karim Benzema have considered from the start, they entrust Vinicius Junior to overcome the impact in the starting eleven after Benzema officially left the club. And that could be the reason Real Madrid seems to no ambition to bring in a new striker to replace Benzema. I no longer expect Kylian Mbappe to come to the Santiago Bernabeu, he has created a situation as if the Paris Saint Germain club has to obey his every wish. I don't want Real Madrid to be like that

The battle for the La Liga title is always between Barcelona and Real Madrid, with Atletico Madrid as the third team to compete with these two teams. Barcelona and Real Madrid won most of the league titles. The same happened last season as Barcelona won the La Liga title and Real Madrid finished the La Liga season in second place. Next season will also see La Liga title either Real Madrid will win or Barcelona will win and Atlético Madrid will make some chances apart from which team will not win La Liga title next season.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are two of the most competitive clubs in European league football. When these two clubs enter the field against each other, neither team speaks to the other team.

I don't know what's the problem between valverde and baena but this is making valverde to be banned temporary.

Valverde is alleged to have punched Baena, and the matter was subsequently reported to the National Police and the RFEF’s Anti-Violence Committee. The incident was recently announced as “not proven” in the Spanish courts, so the Uruguayan will not face any criminal charges.

However, he could still be banned from playing for Real Madrid. Anti-Violence passed the matter onto the Competition Committee, and MD have reported that they now have the final proposal on the matter.

The three members of the disciplinary body (Carmen Perez, Pablo Mayor and Fernando Sequeira) will now decide whether to pass down sporting sanctions to Valverde, and they have 10 working days to come to a decision.

https://www.football-espana.net/2023/07/12/federico-valverde-to-be-notified-of-possible-laliga-suspension-in-the-next-two-weeks

As long as the ban gonna occur before la liga and that's not a big problem. A bit surprised that valverde has been punching baena. I think that seeing from how valverde was punch him and i can say that if there is a possibility if valvede has been very angry toward baena.
It's very bad to see valverde may get two weeks of ban and he will not able to participate in the pre matches with real madrid. I hope that valverde will not be sanctioned.

It's caused by the court has been announcing if valverde not proven punchen baena. It sounds non sense if valverde will still get a sanction.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are two of the most competitive clubs in European league football. When these two clubs enter the field against each other, neither team speaks to the other team.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are two giant clubs that are always fiercely competitive in La Liga, so it's only natural that no other club talks about the two club.
In the history of La Liga, Madrid and Barcelona have a history of very tight competition, in fact, no other club in La Liga has been able to equalize or offset these two clums.
For next summer, it looks like Real Madrid will be the most dominant to occupy the first position, but on the other hand, Barcelona has also prepared well for the summer so that the match between the two, if they meet, will be very fierce.

Barcelona have completed Vitor Roque signing finally for a 40 million euros transfer fee. He is only an 18-year-old centre-forward right now. He must be seen as a wonderkid that Barcelona allocated the money they can spend this summer for him mostly. However this transfer won't happen now. The deal is going to be completed officially and he will join the team by July 2024.

It is similar to what Real Madrid did for Endrick from Palmeiras. Not exactly the same though because Real Madrid have no choice other than waiting for him due to age issue in his country. These are all investments into their futures and I wonder which one of these players will develop more.

He did very well to take him, he's young, he can grow a lot as long as he lets him play
If he took him to keep him on the bench he did a huge bullshit, might as well buy him and lend him making him play and improve
if you don't play, you don't improve   

This is an investment for the future, a player with enormous potential but also quite risky because nothing guarantees the performance of a player, especially for a young player who is expected to become a mega star in the future, we have seen several examples of failures in the past. happens in the world of football but apart from that if this is successful it will be very profitable for the team.
I think the steps taken by Barcelona are very correct, they are currently working on a long term project and are also focused on next season which is quite mature and in my opinion it is quite good between the processes and also the focus for next season.

certainly buying young players is always the right solution
pay them little and invest in the future
this is the long-term strategy that always pays off, even if you simply decide to sell players and raise cash

It is reported that they even increased his asking price to 100 million euros. However the player still seems to be keen on signing for a different team.

I feel that Atletico Madrid is not doing the best they can for their young talent Felix.
Before he was loaned to Chelsea, he obviously lacked some playing time in the club which somehow affected his performance.
While at Chelsea, he was unlucky to meet a purely struggling club which made it uneasy for him to prove himself in Chelsea

That team seems like PSG now. However I don't feel like PSG would pay that much to sign Felix. At least he wouldn't be their first choice if they want to pay that much in my opinion. I have heard about an offer by Aston Villa for Felix as well but their not being in the Champions League hindered them from signing him.

I think an offer from Aston Villa will be more feasible than PSG. PSG has a bigger problem of managing Mbappe and Neymar transfer. If they are not done with the two super issues, signing another forward won't be a good one.

Last season Real Madrid didn't get success but Barcelona got success because last season Barcelona won La Liga title. As the La Liga title was missed this season, they will definitely try to win the La Liga title with their maximum strength in the next season.

Real Madrid are one of the favorites in La Liga according to the team they have formed so far. I will definitely put Real Madrid ahead to win the La Liga title next season. There is no doubt that Barcelona will be a tough opponent for Real Madrid, although there is a high chance of Real Madrid winning the La Liga title in the next season.
The early part of the season is very important for both teams because if one of the teams falls behind early in the season, it is very difficult to make up those points later. So both teams have to prepare from the beginning.

[CLS63]

Sevilla are a really interesting club. They can still be a dominant club in the Europa League despite having an inadequate season in the La Liga. I mean they started to pull themselves together in the La Liga after Mendilibar's arrival but until then they were really a mess. They were in such a bad situation that Mendilibar barely carried them to the 12th place at the end of the season. They were focused on the Europa League title first of course otherwise maybe they could have even finished in top 7.

But all of this didn't prevent them from qualifying for the Champions League directly by winning the Europa League title. I wonder what Mendilibar will do next season. He has been doing quite good for an inexperienced manager with clubs at this level.

What kind of nonsense are you writing? PSG has no way to sell Mbappe - none at all. The only thing that PSG can do is get compensation for the early termination of the contract, but if Mbappe just plays for another year, then PSG will receive nothing but his services.
Perhaps you should first find out how the contract system and the transfer market work before writing about it?

I don’t understand why the post of @TheGreatPython is nonsense. Because there is actually logic behind what he is saying. And I don’t understand why PSG cannot sell Mbappé. I think they are actually willing to sell him because if they do not sell him right now and there is actually no contract extension for Mbappé with PSG, they will have to let Mbappé go as a free agent. That certainly is not going to be the best business for PSG. But I also agree that it is not going to be a good business for Real Madrid to bring him for so much money right now.
