Real Madrid's current condition is very different from Barcelona's condition. Real Madrid has everything they need to become a club that can dominate the league again next season. So it can be said that Real Madrid is even ready to fight again and defend its title in Laliga and also in the UCL.

Of course it's true, but it's just a possibility that basically can't be confirmed at all.
Real Madrid looks stronger because of its experienced squad and coach, but not always a strong team can win the title as long as the performance of its players is far from what is expected. The 2024-2025 season has not yet started and each team will try to improve and improve their squad with their own budget, so we will see how they perform once the season starts.

Last season, Real Madrid managed to win the Laliga title and become champions in the Champions League and of course that was quite a good achievement last season considering they didn't have a productive striker. This means that Jude Bellingham's big role last season succeeded in bringing about quite significant changes by delivering two prestigious titles. This season, management succeeded in perfecting the front line to be even more perfect with their success in recruiting Mbappe. So Real Madrid is certainly stronger than before and this must be an important point for us to assess how strong they are in defending the title this season.

Meanwhile, Barcelona's condition is quite worrying. Because we know that the new coach will bring a new strategy there and reportedly will even change Barcelona's playing style. This means we don't know whether it will work for Barcelona or vice versa. The adaptation process also definitely takes time. And not only that, I think Barcelona also has no intention of bringing in many new players because they still have financial problems that need to be fixed. But currently Barcelona is also eyeing several new players, even though they are not expensive players.

The new coach will bring new strategies and approaches to the game. Hansi Flick certainly needs time to adapt to his new team and he also needs to get to know the character of Barcelona's game better from day to day. Barcelona is not the favorite team to win the La Liga title next season, but Barcelona is still better than Atletico Madrid and the average of other teams in La Liga.

Nobody underestimates Barcelona and its squad every season. Barcelona can be a threat to any team that is favored, even when Barcelona is experiencing bad financial problems. Hansi Flick is expected to bring significant changes to Barcelona's performance next season, so don't judge them before the season starts.

Of course, whether the new coach will succeed in bringing big changes can happen or not. But what we know is that Hansi Flick is a caretaker who is quite experienced in formulating strategies and that will help him enough to bring Barcelona the title. Competition in Laliga will probably be tighter if Girona is able to maintain their good performance this season.

Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Girona are the only opposing club that seems to be hurdles for Barcelona next season, perhaps La Liga is going to be really interesting and competitive. Barcelona new coach, Hansi Flick did better with Bayern Munich although things didn't end well for him. Moving to Barcelona means more opportunities for him and he's one of the sincere coaches that will live up to the expectations of the fans. Barcelona trusts him to deliver an excellent job for the club which I'm pretty sure he will without any atom of hesitation or doubt.

Barcelona has already established a long history of battle between them and Real Madrid which is understandable. I'm not sure if I can say that Real Madrid dominate Barcelona many times but there are season when Real Madrid will be in their best moments but don't win Barcelona when it comes to El classico, it's just the game and the banter and it's difficult to always know the next team who is going to win.

Girona was fortunate to scare many teams last season and Barcelona was caught up in that fever but I'm not sure if they are even better this season. They couldn't keep the balance till the end of the league but we have to wait if they are really going to give teams like Barcelona and others another night mere in Laliga.

Overall Hansi Flick's performance will really be seen by everyone next season while coaching Barcelona even though the coach has had a good performance with his old team in the past. However, next season Hansi Flick will handle a more different season with a more competitive team because remembering that the current rivals are also quite strong rivals in La Liga as you said. But what still concerns the Barcelona fans themselves is not the coach, but the players themselves who must be better because Barcelona needs to compete at the front quite consistently next season.

Barcelona is no longer the Barcelona with Messi or Ronaldinho. I want to be optimistic, but there seem to be so many problems. With the economic crisis, the players' situation, and the coach's process of adapting the team, I hope Barcelona will return to its old strong days. I would love this. We are used to seeing them as one of the 2-3 best teams in Europe.

Barcelona's golden era has ended and now they are in a new era. It is undeniable that Barcelona is now no longer the best competing team in Europe either in the Europa League or in the Champions League, even in La Liga they are really struggling to win a place in the Champions League zone. This kind of situation is not what they want by nature, but it has happened and they are just working to fix it.

Barcelona needs time to improve everything, but sometimes people expect them to be strong without strong financial support. Real Madrid is clearly in a period of glory, but it's not certain they can stay like this forever without financial problems. Even other top teams may still have problems in the future, but we don't know when.

Barcelona's problem is that they don't have an intelligent person managing the club. If they had a competent and intelligent person to manage the club then right now they would be a team with the money to sign any player they wanted. But unfortunately, Barcelona is unlucky to have a leader who is stuck in the past and who makes decisions driven by feelings and without meaning. When they have the opportunity to sell a good player, they let the player expire his contract and become a free agent and with that Barcelona gains nothing. Also, the team has not been able to buy good players for a low price and then sell them for a very high price.

With this direction from Barcelona, ​​they have been asking for loan of players when there is no concrete plan to buy the players, so there are situations where the player arrives on a 1-year loan and leaves because Barcelona doesn't have the money to buy him. . This type of bad behavior keeps great players away from going to Barcelona, ​​honestly in my opinion any good player who goes to Barcelona will destroy his career

But what still concerns the Barcelona fans themselves is not the coach, but the players themselves who must be better because Barcelona needs to compete at the front quite consistently next season.

In 2020 Hansi Flick guided Bayern Munich to win the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, and Champions League titles. But his job as the coach of the German National team was not fruitful, so he is now back to club coaching. Barcelona has what it takes in terms of quality players to compete in all the major competitions this season. If the German can manage the players at his disposal, they will be able to give Real Madrid a good competition. I don't think he has any Spanish coaching experience which will make his work more complex.  Xavi Hernandez was a good coach but he was sacked because of the club's performance in the UEFA Champions League, maybe Hansi might be the manager that will bring back the European lost glory of Barcelona.

Honestly, I'm still not sure if Barcelona will still be the same as usual or not.
Not to say that Barcelona will play badly next season, but seeing their current condition by only relying on players from their academy who are young players and with the difficulty of finding players at this time because of the financial conditions faced coupled with a change of coach which will certainly make conditions a little difficult in adaptation then I feel less confident that Barcelona can make a good breakthrough next season.

Indeed, the hope is that the rivalry must continue to be maintained in order to make the competition for trophies remain interesting. It's just that with the situation that is happening now I am still quite doubtful.
For Girona it's the same because their test this season is much bigger because in addition to expectations because last season played well, for now they also have to be able to compete in a bigger competition in the Champions League which is a new thing and they could be unusual which makes their performance chaotic in all competitions undertaken.

Girona was fortunate to scare many teams last season and Barcelona was caught up in that fever but I'm not sure if they are even better this season. They couldn't keep the balance till the end of the league but we have to wait if they are really going to give teams like Barcelona and others another night mere in Laliga.

Girona's performance last season was quite good, in addition to providing a new hope for this club I also feel that this will be a burden for them next season.

Savio is definitely going to Manchester City, and Aleix Garcia is officially Leverkusen's next season so this will definitely have an impact on Girona's midfield although they have also prepared a replacement as they have already secured Van de Beek from Manchester United.
It's actually a blessing for Van de Beek in my opinion, it's just that with the length of time he's been struggling with injuries there is definitely a bit of doubt that must be felt. In addition, it looks like Dovbyk this season will also have a new partner where Abel Ruiz has Girona permanent as an option for rotation especially with their schedule this season which will definitely increase.

Hopefully, the Champions League will not make Girona like Atalanta in the last 3 seasons and Union Berlin last season because they are good dark horse clubs but when they can't manage well, everything becomes chaotic.

I don't see Girona and Atletico Madrid as threats to Barcelona because last season, Girona was leading Barcelona with a huge gap in the league table but before the season ended Barcelona was able to meet up with Girona and even claimed the second spot in the league table ahead of Girona and even same thing happened to Atletico Madrid because they were also topping Barcelona but at a point Barcelona took challenge and over took Atletico Madrid so the only threat Barcelona has is Real Madrid if not Barcelona still has a very good team that can win the La Liga.

Hansi Flick will try his possible best to make sure that things works out for him at Barcelona so that what happened to him at Bayern Munich won't repeat itself again now that he is managing Barcelona. The expectations of fans are very high and all they look up to is having a very different experience with Hansi Flick.

[Smartvirus]

In my opinion, player costs do not reflect reality. A player from the English league is sold for over 100 million Euros just because he plays slightly above average, and it is a great nonsense to pay such astronomical prices. Such high amounts should not be paid. Some teams can rise above other teams by paying this, but the spirit of football is now left behind. Unfortunately, it is a time when money is power in football.

It’s agreeable that player cost doesn’t really reflect on all cases but, for a couple of players, you can’t deny how much they receive in respect to what they bring to the club and that’s not just the play on the pitch, the fans and deals that are associated, although they have a lot to benefit from that too. Leagues too do affect how much a player is valued.

Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Girona are the only opposing club that seems to be hurdles for Barcelona next season, perhaps La Liga is going to be really interesting and competitive. Barcelona new coach, Hansi Flick did better with Bayern Munich although things didn't end well for him.

Barcelona trusts him to deliver an excellent job for the club which I'm pretty sure he will without any atom of hesitation or doubt.

Barcelona has already established a long history of battle between them and Real Madrid which is understandable.

I think this should be in the reverse as it is, Teal Madrid is top dog in the Laliga, ain’t no team out there that could stop them but, I’ll like to see them try. Now they’ve got Mbappe, so many runners and skill on their side, the experience of Luka M, to guide them for yet another season, Real Madrid would be a terrifying team go head to head against next season.
