With Just one loss in La Liga so far this season and 6 draws, how is that struggling? Last season, they lost 8 matches and drew 6. To me, they have done well. In fact, way much better than anticipated with the departure of their main center forward Benzema, who had got quite a partnership with Vini Jr.

What is now left is just keep up the same form and la Liga title will be theirs. With Mbappe coming in next season, it will very interest to see how Vini jr will adapt since he also loves using the left wing.

Mbappe joining Real Madrid next season is a big disaster for other teams who also want the title. No other team has healthy finances like Real Madrid at the moment, even Atletico Madrid and several other teams will not be able to compete with it. La Liga will not be as exciting if Barcelona's condition is not financially stable, meaning Real Madrid will dominate because of the power of their money.

Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid and the rest of La Liga will likely have to adjust their plans next season if Real Madrid truly has a stronger squad. Improving squad depth must be considered and this is what will likely make the competition better. I think La Liga needs to think about something for Barcelona and other team for a healthier competition next season.

Real Madrid has shown an extraordinary comeback since Bellingham arrival this season. Statistically, their performance is quite good in Laliga, even for a while they are very comfortable sitting at the top of the standings. To become champions, they are the team at the forefront for now. Maybe it is true that if they succeed in becoming champions, their step to get Mbappe is very wide open in the next transfer window. I am optimistic that Mbappe will join Real madrid because so far there has been a lot of news linking him with Real madrid.

Now regarding performance, of course Real madrid managed to make improvements because in the meantime they only suffered one defeat. Vini and Bellingham are two players who have contributed greatly to Real Madrid progress this season where they succeeded in bringing victory and victory in the matches they played. But if Mbappe comes, will real madrid play Mbappe more often than Vini?  I will see Ancelotti rotation if he will sacrifice Vini in the Mbappe transfer.

Laporta the director of Barcelona started motivating his players as he can't hire any new players because of the financial issues he has in this team.
Recently the contracts of some players in Barcelona are about to end and that's why Laporta started talking about one of these players.
He said they are ready to extend the contract of Ronald Araújo forever!
Recently Bayern much was close to hiring Ronald Araújo and they sent him an offer to hire this player, since Barcelona had financial issues there was a chance for Ronald Araújo even to leave Barcelona for Bayern Munich.
But after this support from Laporta, I think he is going to stay there for a longer time.

Mbappe joining Real Madrid next season is a big disaster for other teams who also want the title. No other team has healthy finances like Real Madrid at the moment, even Atletico Madrid and several other teams will not be able to compete with it. La Liga will not be as exciting if Barcelona's condition is not financially stable, meaning Real Madrid will dominate because of the power of their money.

Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid and the rest of La Liga will likely have to adjust their plans next season if Real Madrid truly has a stronger squad. Improving squad depth must be considered and this is what will likely make the competition better. I think La Liga needs to think about something for Barcelona and other team for a healthier competition next season.

Real Madrid, with its abundant financial resources, is trying to build a new volume of the Los Galacticos project, which could make competition in La Liga unbalanced. If Mbappe lands at the Santiago Bernabeu it will be difficult for Barcelona, Atletico and a number of other contestants to compete for the La Liga trophy. So La Liga will appear to be dominated by one team, just like Ligue 1 currently, other teams efforts to build a squad like Real Madrid are hampered from a financial perspective. In the future, La Liga might only be interesting if a dark horse team like Girona impresses again.

The fact is that building a squad consisting of a number of star players sometimes has no impact on success each season, and even has the potential to make it difficult to win trophies if the manager fails to manage the egos of the players. So far Ancelotti has been successful in managing the egos of his players, Mbappe arrival next season could have an impact on achieving trophies, and it is also possible that it could cause gaps within the team. Everything depends on Ancelotti in managing his star players, but what is clear is that Barcelona and Atletico will have difficulty keeping up with Real Madrid next season if Mbappe officially joins.

Barcelona will play Mallorca in the next match.

Right now Barcelona has got a good chance. Actually, I will say that they have been given a great chance by girona. Because Girona has not been able to perform well recently. And that has given Barcelona a chance to get themselves in the second position of the table.

Yes, I know that right now Barcelona is one point behind Girona. But Barcelona should try to win every match. And at the same time Girona will play Osasuna in the next match and Osasuna is performing pretty well right now. So there is a chance that Girona might drop points in this match.

Barcelona drew without a goal against Athletic Bilbao. They are ineffective in defense and midfield. Injuries to Pedri and De Jong may have disrupted Barcelona's plans. Gavi has already been missing for a long time. Honestly, I'm waiting to see what solution Xavi will find for the midfield, because none of the possibilities seems to be positive for Barcelona. After this game Barcelona will face Napoli in the Champions League and they might be mentally disconnected.

Mallorca managed to beat Girona in the Copa del Rey final and on their return to La Liga. Considering that Mallorca have a tough fixture behind them and the cup final will be played in April, I expect them to come out with high energy and confidence against Barcelona. It would not be a surprise if Barcelona, who have lost their tactical balance, perform poorly against Mallorca. As a surprise, Mallorca could be the team that wins.

The competition for the title may be over already but Real Madrid is still not the winner yet. There are still 10 remaining matches, let Real Madrid finished all the remaining matches first. I know it is difficult for other teams in La Liga to catch Real Madrid with the current point gap. But the point gap with Girona and Barcelona is 7-8 points.

Mathematically, catching Real Madrid in La Liga and occupying the top spot in the table is still not impossible. But as we have seen Madrid perform in past seasons, it is easy to say that Real Madrid will be the La Liga champions this season.

Can say this.
As long as they are able to manage their performance, being able to do their best in against every club in La Liga, their chance to be the winner will be higher.

but, there are absolutely several notes to pay attention for. Consistency for being stronger and winner in every match.
However, Bellingham is currently under a red card sanction from a previous controversial match. This will be a challenge for Real Madrid, again having to play without its main player.

[TopT3ns]

This season everything is good for Real Madrid even though they have several defensive players who are injured. Ancelotti can maximize the existing squad without many problems, in fact Real Madrid is the best team in defense to date, having only conceded 18 goals in 27 matches. Goal productivity is also good, they have scored 56 goals so far, but next season things might change if they don't have a center forward.

At least Real Madrid must remain alert when competing because their position in La Liga is already in first place so they must maintain their performance to keep getting points and don't get too many players injured because that will definitely make it difficult for Carlo Ancelotti to replace his best players, Yes, as you have said, so far Jude Bellingham has become a core player for Real Madrid like.

What is now left is just keep up the same form and la Liga title will be theirs. With Mbappe coming in next season, it will very interest to see how Vini jr will adapt since he also loves using the left wing.

One thing that really deserves appreciation from Real Madrid is that they were able to get better this season. Last season, Benzema was also sometimes absent due to injury. So last season only Vini Jr was always the mainstay. But this season, after Benzema left, several young players were brought in who have shown their quality, including Bellingham and Joselu. So it is not surprising that this season Real Madrid is getting better. Securing the Laliga trophy is now before their eyes. It's just a matter of how Real Madrid can win the remaining matches and maintain the existing point difference. Apart from that, Real Madrid also has to keep fighting harder in the Champions League. Even though now I'm starting to not believe in Real Madrid in the UCL, I'm sure Ancelotti can return this team's performance to where it should be.

So last season only Vini Jr was always the mainstay. But this season, after Benzema left, several young players were brought in who have shown their quality, including Bellingham and Joselu. So it is not surprising that this season Real Madrid is getting better.

Benzema left and Real Madrid tried to replace him by Mbappe but failed and in the last summer, they took Joselu from a loan transfer to temporarily handle this issue at their front line. Joselu actually does not replace Benzema well enough but Real Madrid luckily have Jude Bellingham who plays well and is very goal productive in this season.

It is very big surprise to see a midfielder like Jude is leading La Liga best scorer ranking table. He is actually a most successful transfer of Real Madrid in this season and a big gift for Real Madrid. I really think Real Madrid did not expect Jude to score many goals like this.

Securing the Laliga trophy is now before their eyes. It's just a matter of how Real Madrid can win the remaining matches and maintain the existing point difference. Apart from that, Real Madrid also has to keep fighting harder in the Champions League. Even though now I'm starting to not believe in Real Madrid in the UCL, I'm sure Ancelotti can return this team's performance to where it should be.

With decreasing performance of Girona, Real Madrid now have many big advantages to win La Liga. They need to win like 3 to 5 more matches in La Liga and wait for more bad matches from Girona. I bet that Real Madrid will win La Liga some weeks before the final day of season.

Like Real Madrid for example as you rightly said the club lack a good striker to deliver the goals, ever since Bezema left that wife, there have not been any good replacements, which is why the club either settles for draw or lose, this is effecting the club greatly in this season.

Still, this process has to be carried out because we all know that Benzema is a Madrid legend and his presence brings peace of mind, especially when it comes to goals, but Madrid must also realize that they can't continue to rely on Benzema forever because it's a bad situation to continue to do so.

Instead of continuing to think that Benzema is everything they need to address this problem now. Expecting Benzema to stay in the squad is not possible because age is an inevitable situation, so instead of thinking about Benzema they should look for other options.
It was a brave move by Ancelotti not to look for a replacement striker when Benzema left but in the end it was worth it with Jude in the squad and now they just need to find a new talented striker to complement Madrid's already good squad.

Since Karim Benzema was not at the club, Real Madrid's goal productivity has decreased slightly even though their performance is still quite consistent, but Real Madrid has not been able to create many goals even though they are facing lower-class clubs. Every goal they have created is only minimal, even though it is enough to carry them achieved victory but this resulted in the opposing club still being able to equalize because the goals scored by Real Madrid were also not too big as recently they often experienced draws. I know Real Madrid's defense is quite strong but if their attack is not sharp enough then Other clubs can still beat him.

Without Karim Benzema, Real Madrid is still strong enough to compete in the domestic league, but in the Champions League, it looks like Real Madrid needs to have another option by recruiting a striker who is hungry for goals. Relying on Jude Bellingham alone is not enough because he is not a pure striker even though he has scored many goals. I admit that Carlo Ancelotti's decision not to buy a striker was indeed a brave decision and he has also prepared a mature strategy, but however, currently Real Madrid needs a striker who can help them increase their attack. It would be better if Karim Benzema was replaced is Kylian Mbappe and help Real Madrid compete in the Champions League next season.

Yes, Real Madrid must remain focused in the remaining matches this season. They are currently in the top position and many are sure that Madrid will definitely win the title with their impressive performance so far. With Girona setback, Madrid is now more comfortable to continues being there peak and he also feels that there is no longer a team that can compete with them for the LaLiga title Barcelona is also quite far behind.
Not only is Bellingham the main player, Vinicius Junior is also the player that Ancelotti relies on in every Madrid win.

To be honest, Madrid has really performed solidly this season. They don't have a pure striker but currently they are leading the league and are one of the candidates to win the Champions League. This means they have a very solid squad composition in every line. Even though they only got a 2-1 win over Leipzig in the Champions League and draws in the last few games in the League, but in the end they will still win the game. I'm sure Madrid will win La Liga this season even without a pure striker. And if Mbappe joins Real Madrid next season then I am sure Real Madrid will be one of the strongest teams and will win the title again next season.

I think the thing is that when a player leaves a club, they should think of him again or think that since he left, the team has not been stable again or the team is deforming. The best thing is to find another replacement. However, with the Benzema issue of leaving Real Madrid, I think it's affecting them, and this is the same thing that has happened in Barcelona since Lionel Messi left the squad, although their own is worse than Real Madrid's, so for the Real Madrid issue, it's better for them to have a replacement than to think of getting Benzema. Even if he comes back, his age will affect him and he won't do well again, so it's better they look for another young striker.

At least Real Madrid must remain alert when competing because their position in La Liga is already in first place so they must maintain their performance to keep getting points and don't get too many players injured because that will definitely make it difficult for Carlo Ancelotti to replace his best players, Yes, as you have said, so far Jude Bellingham has become a core player for Real Madrid like.

yes. Their performance should be more consistent than before so they can secure their position in the table. Real Madrid should not make any careless moves now; if not, they will lose that position. However I think they should focus more on La Liga since they are already at the top of the standings. If they want to focus on another league, some of their players may get injured, which will affect their performance even in La Liga.

And if Mbappe joins Real Madrid next season then I am sure Real Madrid will be one of the strongest teams and will win the title again next season.

In this Champions League match between Real Madrid and Leipzig, Real Madrid was lucky to win the match with a score of 2-1 at AGG. Real Madrid has also done very well in the La Liga series. They are now far behind Girona in terms of points so Real Madrid are very safe in La Liga and expect them to be champions in this series. Real Madrid is a very good club, they play really well. I am supporting them to win the championship on LaLiga

[bering]

Barcelona has facing players crisis that some of their players were got injured besides that last week Barcelona was unable to gets the winning result from Bilbao and their opponent Mallorca conditions a bit better compared to Barcelona because last week they had successfully to beat strong team Girona so i am sure this result can boosted their morale to facing Barcelona today and apparently although Mallorca can be categorized as mediocre team in Laliga but seems they are not weak opponent for Barcelona because on the last met between them Barcelona only able to playing draw

Basically Barcelona has good records from Mallorca because in the last 15 meeting Barcelona was unbeatable and these statistics probably showing today Barcelona can collect 3 points again and i know Barcelona has no chances anymore to fight for race title with Real Madrid but at least they still can able to compete with Girona for runner up position and it is very possible to do so because Barcelona has 1 points below to Girona and about this match i am sure Barcelona can beat Mallorca and probably this match will ended with narrow scores 2-1 or 1-0 for Barcelona and for betting options Barcelona win has low odds @1.47

[hyudien]

I'm sure Madrid will win La Liga this season even without a pure striker. And if Mbappe joins Real Madrid next season then I am sure Real Madrid will be one of the strongest teams and will win the title again next season.

A team cannot always rely on just one player, even though it has a big influence on the team, sooner or later that player will leave too. Benzema is a player who is a mainstay on Real Madrid's front line, his presence really provides something on the front line, he can be a player who breaks the deadlock with the goals he can create. but he is also getting older too and I don't think he will last long as a player and will decide to retire. Real Madrid's decision was tough, because when they lost Benzema they didn't have a replacement who could replace his role on the front line. So it was a tough decision and also a brave one.
But so far it has gone normally, because even though they don't have a striker who is hungry for goals, they still have other players who can provide new colors, like Jude Bellingham for example. But of course they have to quickly find players they can rely on on the front lines, because otherwise it would be a big risk for them. There is still time for them to do it and I hope they can get the players they want as soon as possible.

[naira]

But it won't matter much as long as the club underneath is suffering from the same problem. at the moment Girona seem to have lost their magic and continue to experience a decline in performance, while Madrid's rivals are also experiencing internal problems that cannot be resolved quickly, which makes Barcelona's performance to date still very standard for a big club like Barcelona in domestic competitions.

In my opinion even though the point difference between Girona and Barcelona is quite far from Real Madrid, Madrid still needs to increase its points collection by a minimum of 2 or 3 matches. Girona needs to chase 7 points and Barcelona needs 8 points, this is still fairly normal but that doesn't mean Madrid has to relax. Therefore there needs to be an additional point difference until the end of the season leaves 9 points. That's good enough to show that Madrid can get trophies and also have free time to focus on the UCL.

I don't think Jude Bellingham is the answer to the lack of a center forward in the Real Madrid squad this season. Joselu can certainly help in some matches, but Real Madrid can't always rely on him because Bellingham's good performance is much more profitable for them. Jude Bellingham is an attacking midfielder who is also known as a shadow striker or second striker, he is good in that position and mostly not so good when played as a striker.

This season everything is good for Real Madrid even though they have several defensive players who are injured. Ancelotti can maximize the existing squad without many problems, in fact Real Madrid is the best team in defense to date, having only conceded 18 goals in 27 matches. Goal productivity is also good, they have scored 56 goals so far, but next season things might change if they don't have a center forward.

Jude Bellingham is not the complete answer to Benzema, but at least he has succeeded in closing a very vulnerable gap, especially in creating Madrid goal productivity. Whether we admit it or not, Jude Bellingham goal contribution has led Madrid to its current position. So if you want to answer fully for Benzema position, it is to bring in a sticker with a thirst for goals, Joselu is only an option even though he is not that prominent, he has given everything he has for Madrid. There are always small contributions that we miss, which are invisible but provide a percentage in a positive direction.

At least until the end of the season it will be fine, but it all depends on how long Madrid can survive in the UCL. Other candidates are already very dangerous, including Man City and Bayern Munich. Because if these two clubs meet Madrid they will be the biggest obstacle in the UCL.

Carlo Ancelotti have been scouting for promising players and he now settled for the outstanding team. They deliver in matches and currently topping the table. The obstacles of Real Madrid gets closer and we will be having the path of the club that will be able to withstand the impressive measures. Real Madrid players, in particular, Jude Bellingham is a potential and promising player for Real Madrid. He's always available to deliver the club in crucial moments, he's the force attacker Real Madrid have been looking for all these months after the departure of Karim Benzema.

[Agbamoni]

Goal productivity is also good, they have scored 56 goals so far, but next season things might change if they don't have a center forward.

It is obvious that other teams have understand the pattern of Bellingham. The way positions, the way he set pace for goals and his tactic. That is why his goal scoring performance and availability in the opponents 18-yard boss has reduced. Am convinced that he is a good player one with so much talent that Real Madrid need at this very moment both in the La Liga and UCL. But one man cannot be put in so much pressure, this is why there is a team.

Everyone has to put in equal efforts so that they would win matches. The defense is missing out let's be honest. Even if we try to justify the fact that the defenders are trying to cover the loopholes. Yet some mistakes are coming from that end. If Real Madrid wants to win the UCL they need to increase their performance to score more goals. Manchester City would play with that defense right now with their current form.

[püsür]

Although he is a marvellous footballer, Bellingham is persistently played in the wrong place by Ancelotti. He has enough talent for number 10, but the position that can make him special is definitely number 8. He can make a superstar difference at number 8 because he is both extremely talented and dynamic. This is where he plays for dortmund and the national team. Playing at number 10 is debatable but when he plays at number 8 he is more enjoyable to watch. His acceleration when he receives the ball from the midfield and his intermediate passes give a Zidane flavour. With 20 goals and 10 assists, he has already broken his career record and has been the star of the match in many matches, but I really think he can be better at number 8. But of course, the success of Real Madrid is obvious, there is no need to look for adventure.
