La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[arimamib]

~

Marcos Alonso joined Barcelona in 2022 and he has played 28 games for Barcelona right now. But the issue is that Barcelona has been suffering financially and now Alonso is also unavailable, they probably need to recruit someone new as his replacement.

With the struggles of Barcelona financially, it is hard to believe that they are going to recruit someone new. They probably will if they find someone as a free agent. They have problems on the attacking side as well. Lewandsonski is not at his best right now, other forwards are also having problems.

The financial struggles of Barcelona have indeed been a significant challenge that makes the likelihood of making high-profile signings a replacement for Marcos Alonso may be limited. They may need to explore the market for players available on a free transfer or at a reasonable cost. This could involve identifying players whose contracts have expired or those willing to negotiate favorable terms. Otherwise, Xavi needs to consider players within the squad who can adapt to different positions. This versatility can be valuable, especially when faced with limitations in recruitment options.

The concerns about Lewandowski's form and the struggles of other forwards make Barca need to focus on the attacking line. While it might be challenging to bring in a marquee signing, Barcelona can utilize theie youth academy for a cost-effective solution. Promoting talented youngsters to fill attacking positions can be a sustainable approach during financially challenging times. This not only addresses immediate needs but also aligns with Barcelona's tradition of nurturing homegrown talent.

Tomorrow we will have 3 games. getafe will play against rayo vallecano, in this game getafe is coming off a good performance because in 5 games they have only had one defeat, with 3 consecutive games without losing, while their opponent rayo vallecano is coming off a performance very bad, in the last 5 games rayo vallecano did very badly, having had a sequence of 5 games without victories, so they will come to this game with the desire to break this cycle of lack of victories. but in my opinion getafe will be able to win this game

Another game we will have tomorrow will be Real Sociedad's game against Alaves, this is an important game for both teams with Real Sociedad needing a victory to guarantee more comfort in the places of access to European competitions, while Alaves fights to be more distant from the teams that are in the relegation zone, but when you look at the performance of these two teams in the last 5 games, both will not do well, real sociedad in the last 5 games had only 2 victories and had 3 draws, although they did not have suffered no defeat in the last 5 games, yet Real Sociedad lost points in those draws, while Alaves only had 1 victory in the last 5 games and is coming from a sequence of 3 consecutive defeats. I see Real Sociedad coming out victorious in this game

the last game of tomorrow will be Valencia's game against Villareal, and a game between two teams with excellent performance this season, Valencia in the last 5 games only had one victory, it was not a good performance, they also had 2 draws and 2 defeats, on the other hand Villareal had 2 wins, 2 defeats and a draw, this game is much more difficult to predict the result, but my guess is that if there are few goals and a draw

Barcelona despite having all those financial troubles it is now in a great performance no matter that lately they have made quite some mistakes in their recent games which will cost them a lot in the title fight.The Cinderella of La Liga is surely Girona and they still have good chances to fight hard to win the La Liga this year,they have to be more careful and not waste chances like they did in their last game where they equalized against I don't remember who.Real Madrid is one of those teams who can never be counted out to the title fight in here and most likely Atletico Madrid is there too.I think the title fight will be decided between these three teams most likely as Barcelona is for the moment not in a good position to fight for the title although not completely out of the title fight.

[Avirunes]

Arda Guler has been expected to be in Real Madrid squad for the Mallorca game so far and I hope this doesn't change again. This is a game he can finally have a chance in for the first time. Ancelotti would keep him on the bench until securing the win by a decent score. After that maybe for 10 minutes or less we might see him on the pitch.

I don't think he has had his time with injuries completely. Real Madrid must have been working on his physique to be better on one hand. He has a good talent but as long as we don't see him on the pitch it doesn't matter unfortunately. 

Its hard for manager actually to trust a young player when the table is getting very competitive which is what is happening right now. After Madrid are ahead with considerable gap on the table and things doesn't matters much, then manager might give him chances much more frequently. Right now Guler is out with injury and manager might wants to make things smoothly for Guler to settle up after a long term injury. There is no rush, Ancelotti has plenty of options and Guler is a massive talent so manager just wants to make sure that everything goes on smoothly.

[Furious 7]

There is still time for now especially with the current situation for Madrid they can still delay even though the winter transfer is in sight but they can still hold back if they still don't find a suitable candidate for a pure striker but this should not be allowed to drag on because after all their deadline for finding candidates is until the end of this season.

There is still quite a long time left and I think for now in this January transfer window they will still prioritize about the defense rather than for strikers. Because after all, by looking at the current situation, their defense still looks weak with several players who have fitness problems such as Militao who must be out for a long time and Rudiger and Alaba who are still very vulnerable to injury.

Madrid must consider this because if this continues to be allowed to recruit then I think this could disrupt their stability. As for the current striker problem, even though this is also a little bit important, but until now their attacking line is still quite good even if they try to bring in a pure striker now, it's actually not a problem, it's just that it's rare to transfer star players in January because they always rely on the end of the season to sign bigger players (star players).

If we are talking about priorities, then surely the defense must be the top priority because it is still quite vulnerable even though it is still quite good but still if in the end this is allowed then it could be a time bomb for Madrid because some players who are forced to be in defense are not all happy because seeing from the responses that Tchouameni gave on several occasions he actually complained a little because his position was a little different which made the situation of performance a little disturbed.
Ancelotti must be smarter in this matter even though they are still in good condition but still for this defense they must strengthen with the number of injured players now.

As for the striker issue, they still want this but in the end we know that until now their midfield and attack still look very good with Jude as the foundation and several other players who answer the opportunities given such as Brahim Dias and Joselu or several other young players who are starting to heat up like Rodrigo.

Joselu did not come with a purchase but he is only on a season-long loan from Espanyol so in this case it is possible for Ancelotti to still look for a player who fits Madrid's style for the position of pure striker at this time.
Indeed, the presence of Joselu and the other players in the attack for now is still very good but still next season Joselu will already leave and this is quite the right time to find a suitable player according to the criteria of Madrid and Ancelotti.

There is still time for now especially with the current situation for Madrid they can still delay even though the winter transfer is in sight but they can still hold back if they still don't find a suitable candidate for a pure striker but this should not be allowed to drag on because after all their deadline for finding candidates is until the end of this season.

Just like i said before Real Madrid priority for winter transfer is they want to gets at least 1 defender player and seems this is urgent because we all know Real Madrid was losing some of important players on that position and recently the players such as Robert Renan from Zenit St Petersburg, Sporting player Goncalo Inacio, and Manchester United player Raphael Varane was into their radar and few more hours winter transfer window will be opened so lets see which players will Real Madrid buy but i am sure Real Madrid will gets new defender player soon

Currently Real Madrid have no problem with their attacking lines because the players just like Rodrygo, Vinicius, Joselu or even Bellingham still able to performing well and scores goals for each matches so i am not sure Real Madrid will give their priority to gets new attackers this january and after end of this season Joselu loan duration will be expired and he will return to his team Espanyol so in my opinion Real Madrid will only buy new attackers next summer but not this january because buy new defender is more important than gets new attackers

I just heard the name you mentioned but for Varane actually I think it would still be very risky.
Indeed, in this case Varane was once in Madrid during his prime but now that's over, especially the injury problem has always been an obstacle for this player so why layer a defender with a player who is also vulnerable to injury because this will only increase the burden in the end.
I've also heard of Alessandro Bastoni who is now starting to be looked at although this is still confusing but it could be a good thing. Bastoni is currently doing very well at Inter and we know that this season his name is being talked about because of his good performance in defending his area.
It's just that Inter will definitely fortify this player but that's actually not a problem for Madrid if they really want to bring Bastoni.

[TelolettOm]

I can't say Arda is a really good player for Real Madrid as long as he hasn't played a single game with his new club. He is just a talented young player discovered by Real Madrid scouts, but I am sure Arda will not easily break into the main squad if his performances are never better than some of the other experienced midfielders.

Indeed. We have no reason to claim whether he is suitable for Real Madrid or not, he still didn't play in any match for Real Madrid. Arda needs to prove his quality in some matches for Real Madrid. Although he is a very skillful player, it doesn't guarantee he will be suitable to play with Real Madrid main squad. But we also has no reason to claim he will fail as long as he didn't show it in any match.

Currently Real Madrid has many good midfielders to play with throughout the season, so competition between midfielders will result in young players being left on the bench. Brahim Diaz, Nico Paz, Jude Bellingham are good attacking midfielders for Real Madrid, so Arda Guller will definitely have to work hard to break into the main squad even if only as a substitute.

Of course, there are too many quality midfielders, it won't be easy to compete for the position in main lineup. But Arda can play as attackers, he doesn't need to rely on the position as a midfielder. I also think that Ancelotti will prefer to put Arda in attacking line. His skills is very needed to optimize for the chance of winning in the match.

Barcelona is still on a good track to hopefully compete for the title with Real Madrid, Girona and Atletico Madrid. It is hoped that Xavi will be able to improve his team's performance in the second half of the season after a less than impressive performance in the first half. Barcelona's defense is often disrupted by injuries to its main players, as well as its midfielders and attackers. So of course Xavi has to think of the best solution to help Barcelona return to the top of the standings in their efforts to defend the title, but of course he has to face different difficulties this season because Girona and Real Madrid are performing better.

Xavi doesn't make many mistakes in determining game strategy, but there are times when his plans don't line up with what is expected. Player injuries are the most basic problem why Barcelona's performance is not good, but now all the players seem ready to start again to fight for the title.

But we also has no reason to claim he will fail as long as he didn't show it in any match.

I think Real Madrid needs to prepare first before actually becoming a main player We don't underestimate his abilities but his experience is still not enough competition in local leagues is certainly different from in La Liga so he needs further adaptation, as a substitute may be the right way to provide experience and adaptation. When the time comes he will be in the main squad as a starter, we certainly still remember how Messi started his career at Barcelona and this player may also have gone through the same process.

I was actually a little surprised to see that he has extended his contract. Because I thought he was going to Brazil as the coach. But I guess he thinks he still has a lot to gain with Real Madrid. That's why he has extended his contract till 2026. Now I think Real Madrid is going to have a good and successful next couple of years as well. I also wonder if he will be able to bring in Mbappe into the squad. If he does, it is definitely going to be insane. Let's see what kind of squad he builds in the next couple of years. Expecting at least one champion's trophy as long as he is here.a

Like you, Im surprised Ancelotti extended his Real Madrid contract! I nearly thought he'd manage Brazil. Who can blame him for sticking with Real Madrid? In his time, he's won the Champions League, Copa del Rey, and more. No easy feat! His decision to stay shows his faith in the team's future. If Ancelotti gets Mbappé, it'll change everything. His track record suggests at least one more Champions League trophy under his guidance. The future is bright for Real Madrid fans!

It's difficult to tell as you can see at the example of Bellingham. He was so young and yet so grown up that hardly anyone could believe what they are seeing when he played. It was amazing from such an early age on for Bellingham. Not many players can do what he is doing at that age. He is already one of the most important core players of the team, if not already the most important player.

But I would not expect the same from Arda. He should get his chances to prove his value to the team, but expectations shouldn't be derived from what Bellingham is doing. The difference is also that Bellingham had time to develop at that age when he played for Dortmund. Arda would skip that phase.

If he gets the chance to play in the match against Mallorca, he must show the quality of his game. some fans are talking about him, he is one of Madrid's young talents. if he can play well, he will be a star with Madrid in the future.
I don't think 10 minutes will be enough for such a young player. The start of the second half might be enough opportunity for him to show his game.

It has quite large potential. Because at only 18 years old (currently) he is already at a big club like Real Madrid. And of course Real Madrid has done a lot of research before finally placing their hopes on this young player. Well, I hope he can return to playing on the field. I think whatever minutes he is given that opportunity could be a good start. And yes, he really has to show his best game when he gets the chance. Because competition at a big club like Real Madrid is really quite difficult. Because if the player cannot show his excellence in playing then he must be prepared to sit on the bench more. If only he had not suffered an injury before then perhaps he would have contributed a lot to Real Madrid for a long time.

There are important things that I remember about Arda Guler while in Madrid. He has been injured 3 times in 6 months without making his official debut.
But I saw in footage during training with the Real Madrid squad that he was very good, this shows that the injury factor did not reduce his performance at all.
I think he's a talented kid, and Real Madrid's scouting team is quite brilliant.

I can't wait to see his debut against Mallorca, whether it will be directly proportional to his performance in training.
Because his position could be an option for a creative midfielder at Real Madrid apart from Modric, Bellingham and Valverde.

Real Madrid and all fans welcome Ancelotti's contract extension. He changed his stance not to consider coaching Brazil in the near future, but he chose to stay at Real Madrid and hope for better luck. I think Real Madrid and its management succeeded in urging Ancelotti to extend his contract with the team, but without great support, I believe Ancelotti should have terminated his contract.

Nevertheless, I don't think Ancelotti will be guaranteed to win the title with Real Madrid. He is a great coach, but to win a title everyone has to work hard and do it together. In La Liga, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid could stop Real Madrid this season from securing the title, but right now Real Madrid has a good chance of winning it.

All this while, I was just waiting for his official statement to see if he will accept the Brazil national team coach offer so as to see the new coach Real Madrid will sign. Nevertheless, I think it is a good thing for him because he can lead this team to another Champions League victory, perhaps he will do like Zidine who won the Champions League back to back.

This will also be an interesting opportunity for Xavi Alonso to continue his career in Bayern Leverkusen with peace of mind and he will have his focus on Bundesliga title case with Bayern Munich because they are one of the best teams in the league this season.

He struggled with injuries and lost the opportunity to show his potential. Some important players were also injured in the process. If Arda wasn't injured, he could even be in the starting 11 instead of them. He is now back from injury and will probably be on the bench for a long time and will be included in the game later. Considering this, Arda has to play very carefully and well during the time he plays in the game. Because he has no other chance.

 Barcelona being the defending title holder in the La liga will definitely give any other club a tough time to be able to take hold of the title reason is that, even though the clubs have been faced with multiple poor performance,  but till on still their are making some plans to get the right hands in  right place by placing they players both new and old players in the vest possible position to avoid every liphole their may have experience in the course of this season, so for that we are going to be seeing allot of positive changes in the Barcelona line up when the January break is over

Barcelona despite having all those financial troubles it is now in a great performance no matter that lately they have made quite some mistakes in their recent games which will cost them a lot in the title fight.The Cinderella of La Liga is surely Girona and they still have good chances to fight hard to win the La Liga this year,they have to be more careful and not waste chances like they did in their last game where they equalized against I don't remember who.Real Madrid is one of those teams who can never be counted out to the title fight in here and most likely Atletico Madrid is there too.I think the title fight will be decided between these three teams most likely as Barcelona is for the moment not in a good position to fight for the title although not completely out of the title fight.

Also other clubs that are worthy to take close look at in this season are, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid who are both pushing really well to occupy the first position since both have at one time or another been title holders in the La Liga in the past and repeating that records will be something that is top of their desire and demand right bow, and for that, Barcelona will really need to be careful going forward if not, any small chances there will be thrown out and won't have a taste of that title again for a long time to come.

[AakZaki]

He definitely had the right considerations and his decision answered all the rumors about Xabi Alonso who would be his replacement at Real Madrid.
Being a coach for a club that he is used to coaching will certainly be more comfortable, especially since there is nothing bad happening at Real Madrid that makes Ancelotti have to work harder, and this season Real Madrid has the opportunity to win at least two titles if they continue to perform well. especially if they can get a sharp, pure striker.

For half of the season they have been on fire, despite not having a full complete of players. This was due to several players being injured from the start. But with their injury problems increasing I'm not sure they'll be able to compete. This is if they don't take advantage of the transfer market this season. At least from January 2, Ancelotti will have to buy new players. CB position, central midfielder, striker, Ancelotti must add at least 1 player in all those positions.

Arda Guler is not experienced enough yet. Also Arda Guler's fitness is still not good enough. That's why Ancelotti doesn't give the youngster much playing time. Arda Guler should now try to maintain his fitness. If the fitness is not good, no matter how talented he is, he cannot survive in the competition. We can look at Neymar as an example. Such a talented player, only because of injuries could not join the ranks of Messi-Ronaldo.

Ancelotti knows very well how to use his players. I think Ancelotti can develop Arda Guler enough experience before he leaves Madrid. Arda Guler is lucky to have a squad like Madrid and an experienced coach like Ancelotti at just 18 years of age.

Thiago Alcântara to Barcelona Free Agent: [1]
There is some news that I heard that Barcelona has offered to Liverpool for Thiago Alcântara in the January transfer window. I think if this really happened, Barcelona would sign Thiago Alcântara in the January transfer window so it could be an opportunity for Barcelona or especially for Xavi, to rebuild the team status and perform well because Thiago Alcântara is one of the best and finest midfielders in the world, and he has the ability to run a midfield solo. Despite Barcelona already having such good players like Frenki De Jong, Pedri, Gavi, Gundogun, etc., Barcelona currently needs those players who have the ability to hold up possession or the ball in the match. Thiago Alcântara's mindset and tactics perfectly match the mindset of Xavi. So therefore, I believe that Thiago Alcântara will be good for Barcelona to bring him in the January transfer window because he is already an ex-player for Barcelona, and it will be easy to find out what the club currently needs to get on the ground. 

Anyway, Liverpool already has so many midfielders, which is quite good, and Klopp has preferred them instead of Thiago Alcântara because he is currently injured. So therefore, it would be good for Barcelona to sign him in the January transfer window because Thiago Alcântara's contract is expiring, and now he is a free agent signings while Barcelona has a need for a free agent player who performs well for the club.

But anyway, let's see what happens next. Share your opinion with us, guys.

I think Real Madrid needs to prepare first before actually becoming a main player We don't underestimate his abilities but his experience is still not enough competition in local leagues is certainly different from in La Liga so he needs further adaptation, as a substitute may be the right way to provide experience and adaptation. When the time comes he will be in the main squad as a starter, we certainly still remember how Messi started his career at Barcelona and this player may also have gone through the same process.

There will of course be adaptations for players who will be used as main players at Real Madrid because this is part of the process for each player that will be used by the team. And sometimes the enthusiasm of players who play in the La Liga competition can also increase by itself even though previously the player played in a lower local league. And for this season, I think Real Madrid can have a little more freedom to fight for the title in La Liga because several rival teams that are candidates for the championship are also not very consistent in reaping points except for only Girona, which is still able to equal points with Real Madrid.

[sana54210]

One day after the new year 2024 and tomorrow La Liga matches will start again. The opening match was a match between Getafe vs Vallecano and as we know, Getafe is a quite phenomenal team so far. The reason is that they are now in 8th position and even have an impressive record in the last few matches. Meanwhile, Vallecano, which was expected to have the same performance as last season, is actually in 11th position in the standings, this cannot be separated from the bad results they have had so far.

As hosts, Getafe will clearly be the favorite in this match and they must win if they want to overtake Real Betis in the standings. Meanwhile, Vallecano is actually not an easy opponent to beat, but if they are able to overturn existing expectations with a win or a draw then that is at least something they can achieve in this match. What do you think, who will win this match tomorrow?

I think you are mistaking them with Girano? Because, Getafe is 8th and they are not that extraordinary at all, they are where they were expected to be by most people, and their opponent is Vallecano and they are 11th, so the difference between them is just six points, if Vallecano wins, the difference would be only 3 points as well, so it wouldn't be really that weird for them to win. Girona and Getafe does have similar sounding names and you might be confusing them to each other, that could be potentially the reason why you are thinking like that.

Any team in any league that is at 8th could end up losing to any team, not saying they would, Getafe could still very well win, I am just saying they do not have that kind of power to considered a winner for sure. If the yare going to win, they will have to work for it and make sure that they are doing their best and I would assume that it would definitely not be all that much of a bad idea for them to attack early, find a goal, and just park the bus.
