La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[ginsan]

In installments? it's quite ridiculous for Barcelona class, it's better not at all in my opinion than forcing yourself which has a bad possibility later for the team and it will be very dangerous in the future, their problems are not over and want to add new problems just because they are ambitious to get Dani Olmo into the squad for next season.

This is the Barcelona we can see now with the problems they still face. I also think they should not force themselves to bring in players if they are not able to, because it will bring new problems especially if they pay in installments from the players they want to bring in. They have to look into their pockets, how much money they have and whether it will be enough to buy players and also whether they can afford their salaries. They have to be aware of that even though I know they have to be better because their rivals are already ahead of them.

Keep in mind that they still have problems, don't let them create new problems just because they want to look stronger. I think they have to show that with the squad they have and the problems they are facing now they are still a very strong club. Management must be aware of their current capabilities.

Of course, Barcelona management must think about all decisions in targeting their targets because if they force themselves, of course the other option is that they have to get an injection of funds by selling old players. Yes, that is the right solution rather than having to pay in installments to the players they buy and also regarding salaries, of course this will make them have to think twice before completing their targets.

Barcelona is certainly hampered by finances in the transfer market, therefore some of their targets have turned to other teams because other teams have healthy finances in the competition to buy players. Of course, their rivals are stronger and have sufficient quality and that is why Barcelona is trying to balance this by targeting lots of quality players in the transfer market.

I hope Barcelona is not expecting the new coach to take the team to win a trophy this season because that is what Barcelona and the fans used to do, bringing a new coach doesn’t mean that a team most win a trophy, although it will be good if a team win a trophy they should not be expecting it and when the team didn’t win anything and they will all started blaming the new coach that he is not good, the reason why I’m saying this is because I know Barcelona and the fans are not going to be happy if the team end up without no winning any trophy at the end of the season.

Barcelona president, Joan Laporta have a whole lot to accomplish. While Hansi Flick is new and we don't expect him to start winning games and lifting titles for the club. It will take lengthy time before things fall in good place for Barcelona. The club's board and the supporters always expect high from the team's headcoach, probably not good for the status for the club. Barcelona are suffering from injuries, budget inequity and also having crucial debts on their heads. The club's gradually draining because it's been one of the hectic challenges for them.

The problem that Barcelona have always faced is that they always don't want to lose their players for sale and prefer to let them run out of contracts without any continuation and indeed that has happened in the last few seasons.

There were several opportunities to improve their financial condition by selling some players who were considered valuable but in the end it never happened for Barcelona because indeed they did not want to lose their players but they also could not make their financial condition better.
In the last couple of seasons we have seen a lot of bids for De Jong and Ansu Pati that were eventually dashed by the drama they created.
They always brought in a lot of players in the Xavi Era but very few of them took out players which made things complicated and now in preparation for the new season which will start in a few weeks they are quite struggling to find additional funds to buy players.

Honestly, with the right tactics and a talented coach, it's not necessarily about signing new players. With their current squad, Barcelona can win a trophy. We've seen many teams perform well without having star players. For instance, we all witnessed Girona's performances last season. Even though they didn't win a trophy, they played impressively with average players. If Girona can perform like that, what's stopping Barcelona from doing even better next season with their squad? I can't easily conclude on Barcelona's performance now, but I believe they will perform well.

Yes it's really possible Barcelona will be able to win. A trophy with their current squad but it's under probability, infact they will literally struggle through it and may actually not be able to win it easily with their current squad, hopefully Flicks tactics and strategy turn out a salvaging one for them because they are definitely going to have some challenges getting the best this season, not when Madrid is present both in the champions league and the LA Liga. So far looking at what Flick is trying to do from their training reports, there's hope for a massive improvement in the new season.

Barcelona winning the La Liga cannot be guaranteed, a lot has to be put together to survive, even with the level of team they are trying to build, yet no positive further remarks just open deals that is taking too long and much negotiation to confirm. Whereas they are taking long to get the team ready and the La Liga is close to starting, how fast can these new players get acquainted with the other players on their positioning and styles of playing before perfecting on the pitch. Barcelona needs to hasten up their deal and take their training very serious because teams are getting more intense and this season looks a lot tough.

Currently, this is actually the risk that Flick must face where he must be able to balance the performance to remain stable at least stay in the top 4 in the coming season when Barcelona's financial condition is still quite bad for now.

The pressure will be enormous and this is what Xavi faced last season. But because Flick already knows that the consequences are like now, he must accept and try to play well where their squad still has many gaps and difficult financial conditions.
Although finances are not really Flick's responsibility, it can still hurt their performance because after all, finances are always the main source for a club to achieve possible conditions in the competition.
Currently Barcelona are still struggling for the winger position because Joao Felix is out for his loan period and now they are also hampered to bring players because of the financial conditions that are not too possible for Barcelona so when this continues to happen it looks like they will only rely on Ferran or Ansu in the winger position or maybe wait for Gavi to recover to be placed there when they cannot bring a single player in this summer transfer.

To me, Barcelona can still get a trophy with their current players; they should put in effort; they can make it up too, although I know that their new coach is going to be a problem, and the problem is that he will introduce new tactics for players, and they have new players that they need to get to know and understand before the league starts, so you are right.

Barcelona should be fast about their decision so everything can be done before the league starts because if the league starts, I think every preparation will stop, and this season is going to be a tough one from the look of things, so it is better they should be fully ready so they can be at the top, which will give them a high chance of getting the title.

Although I admit that Barcelona is likely to be much stronger this season, with its new players and possibly new tactics, but to get the La Liga title this season, they need even harder efforts. However, Real Madrid is currently a team that is known to be stronger in terms of squad composition than other clubs. And Barcelona must face it, like it or not, Real Madrid will again be Barcelona's obstacle to lifting the trophy this season. Moreover, there is Mbappe in Real Madrid's new lineup, of course they are much more ready, not only in the front line, but Real Madrid's middle and back are very ready. And if you look at the data on paper, Real Madrid has a greater chance of defending the title. However, for the reality, we'll try to see later.

The problem that Barcelona have always faced is that they always don't want to lose their players for sale and prefer to let them run out of contracts without any continuation and indeed that has happened in the last few seasons.

Yes, at least for now, what is being monitored by the market is Rapinha, Joao Felix, and also Vitor Roque. The latest news is that Aston Villa rejected the price offered by Barcelona, ​​which was €60m-€70m each for Raphinha and Joao Felix. Aston Villa felt that the price was too high and because of that, they immediately rejected the price offer. Until now, there have been no further negotiations regarding the player.

For Vitor Roque, Al-Hilal has actually started negotiations with Barcelona, ​​and this could be a good alternative for the club to get income from the sale. At least, Al-Hilal has started approaching the player, but it seems that it will not go smoothly. Roque still wants to stay in the European league, but on the other hand, Barcelona hopes to be able to sell the player this season.

Barcelona are suffering from injuries, budget inequity and also having crucial debts on their heads. The club's gradually draining because it's been one of the hectic challenges for them.

In my opinion, this actually all depends on Barca's management who should slowly improve their finances.
But it seems that has not been done and only thinks about how to improve the club's performance in various ways such as having debts with other clubs that cause new problems.
Barca's management should not need to do all that, just prioritize existing players or existing coaches and bring in free players from the transfer market or build young talents from the academy to be sold so that finances improve.
As long as Barca has not been able to show financial improvements in the future, Barca will only continue to get the same results because there are other clubs that have better finances to bring in better quality players.

Barcelona really has a big ambition to get Dani Olmo and I'm sure most people here know about this news. For me this might be a reasonable offer but logically the team that owns the player also doesn't want to let go of a reliable player but paid in installments for several seasons. On the one hand Leipzig would definitely choose to release the player to another team that can pay in full without any risk.

And even though the offer will later be approved by Leipzig, it is actually a bad start for Barcelona finances because it adds to the burden of debt in the future. This is what Barcelona must avoid, which is only ambitious to bring in players without thinking about its finances in the future which are currently not recovering.

They're ambitious but not wise, I can't say anything more about them, even just getting Nico Williams made their fans make a fundraiser, plus the plan to bring in Dani Olmo, everything could be chaotic for Barcelona's future.

What do you think is going on in their minds? They already have a pretty good squad at the moment, did this happen because of Real Madrid's mega transfer which succeeded in getting Kylian Mbappe?

[Docnaster]

I'm very concerned about how Girona are going to perform in the Spanish La Liga next season. They've lost one of their best players of last season Savinho to Manchester City and are yet to replace him. Again, they'll be playing in the UEFA Champions League competition which requires so much energy to have a good performance in it. The club isn't signing as many players as I expect they'll sign this summer and we're nearing the end of the transfer window. I'll be surprised to see them finish in the top four of the Spanish league at the end of next season.
