La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

In Real Madrid training, Rüdiger made a very hard foul on Arda Güler, he apologized and I think Ancelotti warned him. Rudiger is a complete animal so he may have done it unintentionally, I think Arda Güler needs to get used to hard tackles, he needs to protect himself in hard tackles, he needs to do all of them well.

Since he will be playing much more during the season, he should not be crushed physically against other players in the matches he plays in La-Liga. As his older brother, I think Rudiger is doing the right thing for him.

I think it was a very hard tackle that should not have been done in a training session because if it had a serious impact it would hamper Arda's career this season. It is true that every player needs expertise to avoid hard tackles from their opponents and this must also be improved by every player when they have to face tough defenders.

This season Arda Guler must be able to win a main place in the squad because if he fails to show his skills then I think he will often sit on the bench.

I am also amazed by the improvement in quality in terms of his game, where he has shown that he will be able to carry out the tough task if he has to become the next Toni Kross.

I agree more with @SUPERSAIAN indeed hard tackles should not be done but it is one of the best ways for senior players to give experience to young players. We all know that young players continue to need experience from all of Real Madrid senior players but unfortunately Arda has had a serious injury. And this does not need to be done again by any senior player because I am afraid that Arda previous injury could be a little worse. Maybe Rudiger tackle is a lesson for other senior players if hard tackles like that should be used on other players who are already experienced and give a little attention to the young players that Real Madrid has.

Seeing the tackles that were made were indeed a bit excessive, especially Arda who is indeed very prone to injury, so in my opinion this is excessive, even though the intention is to hone new players, but this is not something that should be done because the impact will be very fatal for the player, Arda himself is a player who has experienced several injuries while in Madrid, so it is very unfortunate that in his second season with Madrid he could not show his best game due to the injury he experienced. Hopefully Rudiger will not repeat it again in their training camp, if what Arda experienced becomes a serious injury, this will also have an impact on the team and of course will be detrimental to his own team due to actions that he should not have done, especially Arda who is still young, he is also very talented, so it is very unfortunate that his good performance must remain on the bench due to injury.

Ancelotti allowed his young players to show how well they could play against AC Milan, but they lost without scoring a goal. I was disappointed that Madrid lost because I expected the players on the field to give their all to win the match so that the manager would consider them for future La Liga games. Endrick performance was great, but he was unable to score goals, he needed dangerous attackers like Vinicuis in that game to make his work easier. I want to see Mbappe in their next game against Barcelona, as both teams would like to put their top players in check ahead of next season battle.

You know what I'm saying, pre-season games don't mean much so far for any team. There are no really serious matches during pre-season and that is because the average coach and player will be careful to avoid unwanted injuries before the season starts. The match between Real Madrid vs Barcelona will certainly be great because of the prestige of both teams, but once again this is not the most serious match where victory is absolutely expected.

I'm not too interested in betting on pre-season matches regardless of which team will play the match. Real Madrid has a good squad, they might tend to be able to beat Barcelona, ​​which has a lot of young players in its squad.

Real Madrid is the world's top team, but their preseason is about fine-tuning the machine, not winning meaningless games. The genius, Ancelotti, uses these games as tactical labs. He's trying new players, formations, and preparations for the tough season. Although those matches versus Barcelona and other titans are "friendly," they're psychological warfare. Calculated moves and substitutions are chess pieces

Preseason betting? Fool's game. The careful analysis is valuable. Real excitement comes from understanding Ancelotti's thought process, watching the young guns improve, and seeing the team's tactical evolution. Thus, preseason results may be fuzzing. Real Madrid's preseason is a tactical and player development masterclass for lovers of the game. These games can show subtleties that will determine the team's season

Rüdiger often acts excessively, even though it is only in the team's internal training session but he often commits hard violations against players and it happened not only this time and I think it is right for Ancelotti to be able to warn him. And Ancelotti must also be able to take care of some of their young players well enough to avoid injury because it will be quite detrimental if these young players get injured, they will decline drastically after injury if they do not have good quality so indeed for young players a lot of experience is needed first.
