La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[tottong]

Ancelotti has prepared replacements for Kroos and Luka Modric from the previous season so I think the departure of these two senior players will not have a big impact on Real Madrid's performance and we can see the rotation of players that Ancelotti often uses to fill the void in the front line when Kroos and Luka Modric are not There is.
However, it is a bit of a shame that Kroos still has good quality even though he is no longer young and I think they are still too hasty in making the decision to leave the team.

You are right because previously Ancelotti had often rotated the midfield players and this rotation could be said to have gone well. But I also saw that several times the rotations carried out did not make Real Madrid's attack power dangerous because there was no control in the midfield.
I think the impact of both of them leaving is true, but it won't affect Real Madrid that much because they will definitely find a solution.
For Kross, it is a bit surprising because he still has the quality to last several seasons, but this decision has been considered.

[Velvet78]

playing for Barcelona? you mean Arda? Oh it's better in Madrid because there he can get definite training, adequate team, extraordinary partners, harmony and it feels more like a family with Madrid. So  Arda seems to refuse to play for Barcelona.

Yeah I meant Arda. I can agree with you on the point that Real Madrid is one of the bests (maybe even the best) about player training and development. They are really good at improving a player's physique in such short time periods as well. He also seems happy with his condition now.

I mentioned Barcelona only because Xavi likes to give much more chances to young players unlike Ancelotti. But it is mainly due to Ancelotti's having so many star players in his management of course.

Is Yamal for sale? Still remember Ansu Fati, who was predicted by Barcelona wonderkids as a potential successor to Messi, but where did he end up? even Brighton didn't really need his contribution. Another wonderkid from Brazil Vitor Roque finally regretted that he never got playing time at Barcelona.

No he isn't for sale. Barcelona must be crazy to let him go already.    They even put an enormous release clause condition on his contract which is worth 1 billion euros. They are doing the same for every super talent they have such as Pedri and Gavi too. When it comes to Roque he needs to be a little more patient while there is Lewandowski. Maybe he would be preferred more on the wing meanwhile.

Even though they have prepared replacement figures for the two great midfielders, Real Madrid still has to look for other players in the upcoming transfer market. If for example Valverde, Tchouameni and Camavinga are relied on then there must also be cover for them. Even though this season can be said to be quite successful for Madrid, it cannot be separated from the real contribution of Kroos and Modric, even though both of them can no longer be used simultaneously, their presence is always the difference. Therefore, Perez must have the courage to spend more money to at least bring in at least three more players in several sectors that are most needed.

Therefore, Perez must have the courage to spend more money to at least bring in at least three more players in several sectors that are most needed.

Kross and Modric have decided to stop strengthening Real Madrid next season, so Madrid should look for replacements for both of them to maintain the depth of the squad that Madrid has next season, especially the midfield, currently, it is reported that Madrid is starting to target Florian Wirtz from Leverkusen to be able to fill in the hole that will be left by Kross who chooses to retire, while Modric will leave Madrid after no longer getting a contract extension at Madrid, the departure of the two Madrid mainstay midfielders will of course leave a big hole in the future so that Camavinga, Tchouameni and Valverde will not be able to replace them enough their role, apart from Florian Wirtz from Liverpool, Ancelotti is also starting to monitor the situation of Mac Allister who is currently at Liverpool.

I think for this season it seems like Madrid has budgeted a lot of money for Ancelotti to strengthen their squad in order to compete next season, Ancelotti, who is starting to rebuild Los Galaticos, of course continues to bring in lots of great players and Mbappe is one of the players who will be in their squad next season, for now of course the midfield is a sector that Madrid must immediately improve after Kross and Modric leave, apart from the midfield, maybe Madrid should also try to strengthen their defense next season, although Madrid defense this season is quite good, but I think not strong enough at the moment.

[CroverNo01]

Real Madrid have successfully finished the season ontop of the table even if the matches have not really ended,they deserve every bit of success thats coming their way.They hope to win the Champions league,but they shouldn't be over confident as Leverkusen were because Dortmund is one team that can shock people,and them getting to this stage of the tournament is not by luck,it means they prepared adequately for the games and that is why they are flying.I can't wait to see them play against each other.But I'm just having a feeling that what happened to Leverkusen will happen to Madrid and the trophy will go to Dortmund.

Barcelona have turned down the promising careers of most young players and injury turns to become the current fate for them. We know what happen to Ansu Fati, Pedri and now Gavi, Barcelona structure of football makes players become vulnerable to crucial longterm injuries.

Arda Güler is comfortable and enjoying the good moment of playing stylish football in Real Madrid. What else does he need if not a booming fanbase, an experience teammates where he would be learning from and finally a coach that will groomed him on every phases, exactly these mentioned stats are in his current possession. Arda Güler will not jeopardize or compromised his chances of exploring to become one of the best wonder kid in football. He's already growing to be one of top player for Real Madrid, what he needs currently is patience.

I have often said this before, but I will always say it to increase my confidence as a Madrid fan that whatever obstacles may arise, Madrid will not waste this opportunity.
now let's think again about the quality of all of Madrid players and what is the experience of this big team which has often won the UCL title and on the one hand, Madrid has Ancelotti who has great experience in handling a big team like Madrid to provide assistance in getting the UCL title this season.
from here we can compare Madrid chances of winning and on the one hand you will see that if Madrid has made it to the final round, that means Madrid has a big chance of winning.

you can look back at how Madrid beat Bayern Munich at that time even though they conceded, but Madrid retaliation was very cruel because Madrid always had a way to continue attacking until Dortmund opened up opportunities for Madrid to score.
and regarding Leverkusen defeat, it might be a motivation for Dortmund and I will not doubt Dortmund, but for me, no matter how strong Dortmund is, they will ultimately be defeated by Madrid.
If you are still a little doubtful about the final result that Madrid got, you can look back at the comparison of Dortmund performance against PSG and compare Madrid against Bayern Munich.

Real Madrid's campaign this season have been one of the best in the club history and deserves all the applauds they're getting at the moment. Winning the Spanish La Liga title as well as qualifying to play in the final of the UEFA Champions League competition isn't a walk in the park achievement and as fan of the club, I'm very impressed with the club's performances and achievements this season.
However, it'll be very disappointing if the club fails to win the UEFA Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund that will be played at the famous Wembley stadium on June 1st because that's the ultimate club football trophy in Europe. Real Madrid having won it in 14 different occasions aren't a novice when it comes to UCL and having a manager that's won it in 4 different occasions as well as four players that's won it five times in their respective careers I think is an added advantage to the Real Madrid team. Hopefully, Real Madrid will win again to complete their impressive season.

[Ahli38]

It's true that Real Madrid must do this because Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are too old so they must immediately find a strong midfielder like their two current midfielders. Even though in the current era it is very difficult to find midfielders who are reliable and match the capacity of Real Madrid's game, they are not only labeled as expensive players, but the player can provide himself with the ability to provide the game that Real Madrid wants, regarding Real's current condition. It is certain that they will still dominate La Liga next season, even though the competition with Barcelona will continue forever, it will be interesting to watch.

As I said before, age is a very important factor because they understand that the older you get, the higher the risk and the lower your performance. Toni Kroos' position is the most important position to always maintain high performance. If Toni Kroos cannot do that and sign a contract for the next few years, it will make him very tired and possibly make his body not in a normal condition.

Luka Modric is now 38 years old and Real Madrid is aware of this. The only reason Real Madrid still retains him is so that the young players can inherit the toughness and skills of their seniors. So Real Madrid always does not let go of their senior players before they have replacements. For example, Real Madrid's attack line is always not empty when an old striker leaves. Young players immediately replaced him well. And the same goes for the midfielder position. But Toni Kroos is actually not as old as Modric. He is currently 34 years old. But Toni Kroos made the right choice by retiring early when he was at the peak of his career as a football player. But everyone will miss him. Because we are used to seeing him with Real Madrid. And I'm sure Real Madrid is also prepared for this. Because of course this decision has been discussed for a long time with the club so that the club will be better prepared when the time comes. And now the time has come.

[rendravolt]

Still regarding Toni Kroos who will retire in the near future, here is a fact that is rarely known to many people, namely that he has experienced pubalgia or in other words it is called a sports hernia. With this condition, Toni Kroos has to endure pain in every match and he once expressed this when he endured the pain of playing for 6 months.

I think this is a condition that is rarely experienced by professional footballers and here Toni Kroos still gives an impressive performance while experiencing this health problem. What is clear is that his retirement this time was not without clear reasons and he would indeed be in a very unhealthy condition if he continued playing. Therefore, he made a difficult decision and chose to hang up his boots sooner at the age of 34 rather than making his situation worse later.

For more details, you can read it here and this news was published in 2021: https://www.managingmadrid.com/2021/8/6/22611718/explained-toni-kroos-pubalgia-and-treatment-plan

Because if, for example, Barcelona sells several of its players next season, in my opinion that is also too risky. Because, the risk is that Barcelona will not necessarily get better players than the current players. So in my opinion, utilizing existing players is a way out of the problems Barcelona is currently experiencing.

There are several players whose performance may decline due to age and I think those who are old enough can be sold and bought new players, at least young players who have more ability and have the potential to be able to play in the main squad at Barcelona, after all the competition is very tight in Next season, if we continue to play experienced players, it won't be enough because stamina and performance are necessary, especially since league matches are also quite time-consuming, having young players will be good enough to maintain consistency.

But I don't know whether Barcelona has enough money to buy new players and sell their players, even though we know they are in a financial crisis, I am not a Barcelona supporter but what I see is that Barcelona should have lots of young players to fill the main squad so they can compete in the season. in the future and Xavi can rotate each of his players so that he can continue to maintain consistency next season, at least winning the Laliga title is already a good achievement, let alone the UCL which is certainly not an easy competition to overcome.

Age is still one of the problems that cannot be forgotten because this is a natural problem of athletes because they cannot win when talking and fighting age but actually for the problem of Modric even though he is 38 years old but I don't think that he is in Madrid just as a whip because seeing from the current situation he is still a I don't think it's a problem for now if Madrid still expects his services at least for the next season because he will still be very useful especially now that they are a little limping with the loss of Kroos so Ancelotti wants to minimize that so as not to lose 2 important figures at the same time.

It is true that Madrid must look for new alternatives with fresher players because however with his current age then we certainly know that Modric will not be long anymore, but if he is still able to be maximized why not because he is also still very useful.

A team needs experienced players in several sectors but they also have to be able to combine with young players and so far we have seen that the Barcelona team has failed to be able to create a squad that combines senior and young players like Real Madrid has done.

Barcelona needs quality players and if they want to compete again for the title and compete fiercely on the European stage, there are many lines that Barcelona management needs to improve to create a capable squad, but with all the internal problems that this team is experiencing, all of that is not possible. it will be easy and in fact I think it will take a long time for Barcelona to recover, I don't have much hope for Barcelona to be able to compete with Real Madrid next season.

[wmaurik]

Yes, without Kroos I think Madrid's midfield will experience a little change. We know Kroos is a good passer and has high creativity in organizing attacks. Kroos and Modric are two very great veterans and are able to regulate the tempo of the game. I agree with you that there is no second version for them. I also hope that their juniors have learned a lot and can take on the responsibility of being a midfielder in the future. I'm still waiting for Madrid's line-up next season because currently I still can't see who is worthy of replacing Kroos or Modric in midfield.

The Real Madrid coach himself will choose who is more suitable to fill this line next season, although Real Madrid will also monitor the transfer market to get several players to fill certain lines next season. Because Real Madrid must remain strong even without Kroos or Modric in midfield, because that is an important line for all teams to be able to create a more complete attack in any match. And I also hope that without Kroos or Modric in midfield it won't make Real Madrid weak next season.

And I also hope that without Kroos or Modric in midfield it won't make Real Madrid weak next season.

Of course, Madrid will immediately be active in the transfer market after the Champions League final is finished, Kross will play his last match in Madrid this season and I think the final match will be Kross last match in Madrid, losing Kross will of course make Ancelotti have to work quite hard to looking for the right player to fill the position left by Kross in the future, currently there are several names of players targeted by Madrid to become Kross's successor at Madrid and I think of course Ancelotti must really know the quality of these players before sending negotiators to reach a contract agreement.

Ancelotti has been known for his eccentric style, but he is not a coach who is careless in recruiting players,What you say is true, if indeed the manager has full responsibility for recruiting a player in the transfer market and I think he will continue to review and observe the names of players sent by talent scouts ,before deciding which players are worth buying, all this time Ancelotti iS quite observant and astute in seeing the potential of players to strengthen his squad and even if we pay attention, Ancelotti Is more inclined to buy players who can play in various positions in his line-up and of course that is an advantage for Madrid, just like when they recruited Bellingham from dortmund.

[Blitzboy]

With the absence of Kroos in Madrid's midfield, one of Madrid's attacking patterns is indirectly lost because they will be a little inconvenienced to make direct passes from the middle of the field which we know is Kroos' specialty.
So in this case the loss will definitely be felt. I agree that in the end Madrid will look for other alternatives to fill the gap left by Kroos but that does not mean they will not lose because the intensity of the attack will be different for sure after being left by Kroos.

Yes, without Kroos I think Madrid's midfield will experience a little change. We know Kroos is a good passer and has high creativity in organizing attacks. Kroos and Modric are two very great veterans and are able to regulate the tempo of the game. I agree with you that there is no second version for them. I also hope that their juniors have learned a lot and can take on the responsibility of being a midfielder in the future. I'm still waiting for Madrid's line-up next season because currently I still can't see who is worthy of replacing Kroos or Modric in midfield.

Kroos is a crucial element of the puzzle, guys. He's a field magician legend. He finds deadly passes like no one else. As with all good things, his time at Real has ended. Change is hard, but its exciting. This is our time to see who has the guts and talent to be the next midfield maestro. I've always noticed talent, and Real Madrid's young players are hungry. Maybe they're not Kroos, but they have that spark. Instead than lamenting the past, lets look forward with positivity. Who will become the new Bernabéu hero? We might be pleasantly surprised.

[Weawant]

The Real Madrid coach himself will choose who is more suitable to fill this line next season, although Real Madrid will also monitor the transfer market to get several players to fill certain lines next season. Because Real Madrid must remain strong even without Kroos or Modric in midfield, because that is an important line for all teams to be able to create a more complete attack in any match. And I also hope that without Kroos or Modric in midfield it won't make Real Madrid weak next season.

Most definitely replacing Kross and modric is a sure must for Madrid by next season but then getting the appropriate replacement for them is another thing that isn't going to be really easy because these guys were literally just the best they had around the mid field but then even if they get other players for their replacement and they ain't perfect enough, with time they will definitely be .

Real Madrid is still not really going to suffer next season even in the absent of these two of they eventually leave by next season due to their aging factor because even the reserve team is very much experienced enough to be able t o handle some of the games just like they did this season and their results weren't at all bad so it's possible with the right mind and proper training they could get replacement for Kross and modric from there too that's if they aren't willing to buy new players, but I  doubt if Madrid isn't going to buy player ls next season as they have got all it takes.

Very importantly for them is winning this champions league at hand and then planning for next season of which I'm sure these two are going to play in the champions league and are definitely going to be able to give that their spectacular performance as usual giving Madrid the solid midfield which keeps them at an advantage over their opponent not been able to properly penetrate from there to their defense .

[Adams0001]

And I also hope that without Kroos or Modric in midfield it won't make Real Madrid weak next season.

I trust Ancelloti because he knows who will replace Kross next season, which is why I like him. He never brings weak players to the team, which is why he is the best coach. I am confident that he is already thinking about who will replace the old players in the team before Kroos says anything, because I believe the coach should not be influenced by Kroos' decision before saying it to the public. This season, Real Madrid does not have a superior striker, and they are performing well, winning the La Liga and attempting to win the Champions League final against Dortmund, so I do not believe that even if Modric and Kroos leave the squad, Madrid will still perform well. Let's watch how Madrid will play against dortmund in the final, because the league as finish and i don't think madrid will focus on real betis match this week since they have already on the tittle. we still have some young midfielders that will replace them even without buying new midfielders next season.

[QueenVera]

Even though he is quite old, Lewandowski is still very fit to play with Barcelona next season. Even though Lewandowski's goal productivity has decreased this season, I also don't consider this a decline. Because it cannot be denied that the competition in Laliga this season is much more difficult than last season. For example, Girona suddenly appeared in table 3 of the LaLiga standings and several other teams also experienced a very significant increase in performance. Therefore, it is natural that Lewandowski will have more difficulty scoring as many goals as the previous season. The reason is that the La Liga competition this season is indeed fiercer.

Apart from that, for next season, I don't think Barcelona needs to bring in new players. Because actually, currently Barcelona already has players who have quite good abilities and skills. So in essence, Xavi just needs to organize and match the players that Barcelona currently has in order to achieve pretty good results. Because in my opinion the problem Barcelona is currently experiencing is that their players have not found the right position. So with the limited costs that Barcelona is currently experiencing, I think this is a pretty good way to make Barcelona perform better next season.

Because if, for example, Barcelona sells several of its players next season, in my opinion that is also too risky. Because, the risk is that Barcelona will not necessarily get better players than the current players. So in my opinion, utilizing existing players is a way out of the problems Barcelona is currently experiencing.

Lewandowski is a great striker. He's still got the fuel in him to net in more goals. He's agile, skilful and his goal scoring abilities are at the peak. Although age is calling gradually but he's still got a bit of time in him to show his worth in the public and projected games too. Although like Ronaldo, even at the age he is, he still kept the zeal on. I don't think Lewandowski's case would be any different.

 Let him still use the ample of his time left to do exploits. He's got European cups and tournaments to journey through and in him, there's all that it'd take. Age is still favourable to him and he doesn't look like he'd slack in a few years to come, so for the mean time, he's got to enjoy his playing time before thinking of retiring back to the Arab league or quit football generally.

 The striker can still be a useful asset to the Spanish side. Despite the ups and downs, he's managed to stay in form and shape, he still does well to net in goals when he's got the chance to and so far his rate of play isn't really any need for alarm. The club themselves know how advantageous he is and also how difficult it is to get an active striker in the market now. So they've just got to stick to appropriate terms with him and also try to work with him as he strives to do his best in being relevant in the team too.

[Volgastallion]

I really cant believe Sorloth or Dovbnik are gonna be the top scorers of this league, or the "pichichi" like they said in spain, but well this is footbal and everything can happen, im sure nobody can expect this fight when the season has just started, and less when Bellingham seems like he is gonna score in every single game at the start of the season.
