La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Chilwell]

Here we go! Julián Araújo leaves Barcelona to join AFC Bournemouth.

La Liga giants Barcelona have on Sunday wrapped up an agreement to sell a member of the club’s defensive ranks to the Premier League.

The player in question? Julián Araujo.

Right-back Araujo, for his part, has seen his name take its place front and centre in the media headlines in Catalunya’s capital for several days now.

This comes after word was forthcoming that a new suitor had emerged in the race for the Mexican’s signature.

After he was deemed surplus to requirements by new Barca head coach Hansi Flick, Premier League outfit Bournemouth quickly positioned themselves in the running, kickstarting negotiations with the Camp Nou brass.

The Cherries quickly made clear their readiness to cough up €10 million in any deal, terms which, evidently, proved agreeable to Deco and co.

Atletico Madrid signings so far:



Both of them are cheap deals considering their talent levels in my opinion. They are good at signing the right players however... Joao Felix's future is still unclear. Isn't any team interested?    Other than that, I have read LA FC from MLS League is interested in Griezmann. After bringing Sørloth and Alvarez both, I think it is quite sensible to let Griezmann go. He isn't in his golden era anymore you know. But his services so far are much appreciated for sure.  

He is expected to leave before August 14 deadline or this winter in case of a deal with LA FC.

https://www.goal.com/en/lists/lafc-discussions-sign-atletico-madrid-midfielder-antoine-griezmann/blt59f9b63f79cce821

So far, Atletico Madrid has officially introduced two of their new players, namely Le Normand and Sortloth, but that doesn't mean that they are the only two who are Aletico Madrid new recruits at this time because Alvarez and Galaggher are just waiting for the time to be unveiled as Atletico players after the current agreement this time has been established, compared to several seasons ago, Atletico has actually moved very actively this season to transfer players and it is reported that they are still targeting several players to recruit to strengthen their squad next season.

Alvarez is one of Atletico Madrid record purchases at the moment so they have high hopes of seeing Alvarez develop next season, apart from that Joao Felix return to the squad should be utilized well by Simeone next season especially since he appeared very impressive with Barcelona in last season, Joao Felix future is still a mystery at Atletico Madrid because so far the fans don't really like him after last season he celebrated after breaking through Atletico Madrid goal when he was on loan at Barcelona.
Antonio Griezmann is a player who continues to make a lot of difference ini Atletico Madrid all this time, but the arrival of Alvarez certainly makes his current position in the main squad unsafe, but if he really wants to leave MLS of course Atletico Madrid must move quickly to complete the transfer considering that the transfer market in MLS will close in a few days.

[pusaka]

Young players are good, but you understand that it will take a long time for them to get the necessary experience, and Barcelona needs results now. They are trying to attract new players, they decided not to extend Felix's loan because of this, that is, they are doing something. They can also try to apply Real's strategy and attract players with free agent status to the team, for some teams this is also a working strategy. But Barcelona does not have big problems, they have a balanced team that is ready for the new season.

What Barcelona are implementing at the moment is very suitable because they also need much better results than last season and at least Barcelona can win La Liga again next season. So implementing a strategy of bringing in new players and also strengthening the young players that are already there will be a very good option for Barcelona. And from what you say it also makes more sense because Barcelona not only need young players but also need players who already have experience so that the depth of their squad can be quite balanced.

There are targets that they must achieve in the near future and there are targets that they must achieve in the long term, so a team must prepare for that very well. This is all balanced between the short term and the long term, so far Barcelona can prepare for that, yes even though they still have problems that have not been resolved. But at least they are still trying to make the best of it next season. Actually, they are very capable of having the strength that Real Madrid has, because there are many players who I am sure will not refuse if invited to join them. But the problem is their financial situation does not allow them to do all that, so they have to be able to spend as little money as possible but still have a good squad.

Actually, it is more about Barcelona's dedication to building the team from the past until now through the implementation of the La Masia academy so that Barcelona always finds it easier to deal with the difficulties they experience every season even though the financial difficulties are still not resolved at this time. However, this does not mean that Barcelona has to give up on their own condition because at a time like now Barcelona can still bring in new players to their squad without any obstacles.

Barcelona has a beautiful La Masia, their school for young talents. It's cute, but it's not helping them at all. Debt. They're just whistling past the graveyard while it's like a time bomb. Kids' ads may save money right now, but they're just a band-aid on a real hurt. Laporta and his group are going to play with fire. Their main goal today is to win, but what about tomorrow? They get closer to the edge every season that this debt hangs over them. I admire the academy because it has turned out legends. But prayers and hope won't help you build a team.  They need to make a plan for their money right away. It's not just about getting prizes; it's also about staying alive. Barcelona is very big, but even big things can fall. They might fall apart if they don't get their house in order

[Frankolala]

Barcelona were a bit fortunate compared to other clubs who had the same problems as them, when the team was having financial difficulties, the players from the La Masia academy were simultaneously showing their extraordinary talent. Even though Barcelona are experiencing financial difficulties, they can rely on players from La Masia to fill in the gaps in their main squad. Only Dani Olmo has just been officially launched in this transfer market, it is not yet certain how many more players will be brought in, but if you look at their current financial condition, Barcelona will probably give their young players playing time.

Actually, it is more about Barcelona's dedication to building the team from the past until now through the implementation of the La Masia academy so that Barcelona always finds it easier to deal with the difficulties they experience every season even though the financial difficulties are still not resolved at this time. However, this does not mean that Barcelona has to give up on their own condition because at a time like now Barcelona can still bring in new players to their squad without any obstacles.

It must be admitted that Barcelona has many potential young players and all of them are the result of their academy, which means that Barcelona management has built a fairly successful academy so that it can produce many quality players.
With the financial problems that Barcelona is currently experiencing, it makes it difficult for them to recruit quality players to compete with other best European teams, it is a setback for a team as big as Barcelona.
If it is only to survive at the top of La Lig, I think it is not their place there like last season, but Barcelona must be able to build a team to be able to become champions, that is what Barcelona team management must strive for even though it is difficult because of the financial problems they are experiencing.

The academy is really helpful to Barcelona and that is why you see that whenever they are face with difficulties, they fall back to the academy since that is the major reason why the academy is there. However, academy players are young and lack champion experience which makes it needful for  Barcelona to buy good players outside the club.

Financial issues can bring down the performance of a strong club and that is what Barcelona needs to put into consideration so that they can overcome this problem in order for them to be able to have players who will be able to win UCL.

Previously, Xavi and Barcelona had reached an agreement to continue their collaboration, but due to Xavi comments regarding Barcelona financial condition in a press conference, Laporta was angry and immediately ended their newly agreed collaboration. Xavi loves Barcelona very much, he is also a legend there, but when it comes to work relationships, there are lines that cannot be crossed.

If I'm not mistaken when the middle of the previous season Xavi had said he would leave even though it was held back by Laporta and the peak was indeed an internal problem where Laporta and Xavi heated up again which required Xavi to leave even though it was as you said this was led by Xavi's statement which said that Barcelona would have difficulty competing with Madrid next season in the race for the trophy because of some of the problems faced and Laporta did not accept that so that made him take action by looking for a new coach and Hansi Flick was chosen as the new coach.

The trigger for the change were the statements made by the coach in which he stated that the Blaugrana wouldn't be able to compete next year with Real Madrid or other big European teams.
The president felt betrayed by the coach because a few days before, the coach had told him the opposite, that he had confidence in the squad and that they could compete for all the titles.
However, there are many more things that have caused the coach's departure. It should not be forgotten that when he said in January that he was ready to leave at the end of this season, Laporta said that if it had been another coach instead of a legend like Xavi he would have fired him.

But in this case I think Xavi's statement is quite a good goal where even though it sounds harsh for Barcelona but indeed they also have to realize that in the end if the internal problems they have, especially for financial problems, then indeed what Xavi said can come true because let alone to compete with other big clubs like Madrid in competition, their performance could deteriorate over time because of the problems they are currently facing so I think Xavi's statement is not wrong but indeed this is misinterpreted by Laporta.
Now they're in Flick's hands and we'll see if Xavi's statement is really just a load of rubbish or if in fact it is.

This is good news, after Atletico Madrid previously brought in Julian Alvarez, now they have recruited Robert Le Normand and Sorloth. The tight competition is increasingly visible in La Liga. Normand is a tough defender when wearing the Sociedad uniform. Just like Sorloth who last season scored 23 goals in La Liga, with his club, Joao Pelix seems to be leaving soon but it is not certain where he will land, there are no signs of other clubs being interested in him and honestly I really regret it if that really happens.

for this season Griezmann does not have a definite place in the competition to be honest he will lose at the club and it would be better to leave,

In a friendly match when hosting Juventus Sorloth and Normand were fielded, unfortunately Alexander Sorloth was not able to score a chance at that time, ATM won the match with a score of 2-0, each scored by joao felix in the 48th minute and one a correa in the 85th minute (p).

[Raflesia]

When Barcelona have more money I don't think it's possible for them to make an initial offer in installments because that would be ridiculous. They tried everything they could to sign Dani Olmo and that included paying back money which seems like a lot to ask for with the situation they're in now.

I find it hard to believe that money is that essential for a team of this level to make a difference more than a good and proper management, and even if it matters somehow, it is not the only reason teams are gaining titles and ending with a good season. So many teams with significant bankrolls couldn’t achieve anything for many years, and in the other hand, so many teams with short bankroll, managed to gain titles and grow their bankroll.

Teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona and even any team in LaLiga is in need of good management and proper coaching to ensure a successful season, and automatically more investors and the bigger money they would get. We have seen a big success last season from Girona with a small bankroll and overall players. Who would do the same this season?

The problem with the financial situation they are currently facing is that it indirectly makes everything suffer including performance because of poor management.
The Bartomeu era became a very bad era for Barcelona and we know that when Covid happened the way Barcelona's finances were managed was too irresponsible because Bartomeu did not want to lose his position in Barcelona which actually made conditions even worse until now.

It is not wrong when a club that is not too rich can still be quite stable in terms of performance, but at this time for Barcelona is an exception.
We realize that the expectations of Barcelona are very large, especially for the struggle for the position of champions in domestic competitions but of course it must be passed in several ways such as continuing to make updates with several players so that their performance remains stable and internal problems that must be pressed to be quickly resolved. But the situation is not as easy as imagined because seeing from the conditions until now Barcelona still cannot do that which makes them have to be satisfied with the current situation.

Barcelona is very big, but even big things can fall. They might fall apart if they don't get their house in order

If Barcelona really has the best way with the La Masia academy,  then Barcelona should not have to buy players when their financial condition is bad. But in reality, Barcelona still prioritizes buying players when their finances are bad and as such, Barcelona always has problems which in reality are always related to money. With a case like that, I really not sure if Barcelona is confident in playing or selecting young players from the La Masia academy,  because in reality it's not like that.

After all, the new season will start soon and also, at least Hansi Flick is a manager who is highly expected to improve Barcelona's performance and quality. Also, the fact is that Barcelona has managed to get Dani Olmo who has a contract until 2030 and of  course, it will be interesting to watch the young talent in the Barcelona squad next season, because competing with Real Madrid will certainly never be easy.

It must be admitted that Barcelona has many potential young players and all of them are the result of their academy, which means that Barcelona management has built a fairly successful academy so that it can produce many quality players.

Financial issues can bring down the performance of a strong club and that is what Barcelona needs to put into consideration so that they can overcome this problem in order for them to be able to have players who will be able to win UCL.

La Masia Academy is one of the football academies in Europe which has been famous for its ability to produce talented football stars over the years, so it is not surprising that Barcelona, ​​which has experienced financial problems in the last few seasons, has been helped a little by the presence of good academy players, whether which retained in the first team and in terms of income from the sale of their young players, currently barcelona is reportedly trying to recruit several star players so in my opinion maybe their finances has stable although not as good as in the past, the recruitment planned by Barcelona will probably cost a lot money, but it looks like it will be not worth it if they are able to compete to win La Liga or the Champions League next season.

Barcelona cannot rely on 100% of their academy players in squad, because
for order to face tough competition in La Liga and UCL next season, apart from having to have good squad depth, they also have to have players who have a strong mentality in the fight. champions and of course we won't find that in very young academy players, but one thing that Barcelona can do now to balance their finances and the depth of the squad they have is to mix academy players and also senior players in their current squa, so that it will improve the mentality of the young players in the future.

But Barcelona does not have big problems, they have a balanced team that is ready for the new season.

IMO, if Hansi Flick's gameplay goes well enough with their young players, it is hoped that Barcelona's core players can be much better. At least, the system that Hansi Flick will develop is slightly visible with him fielding Barcelona's young players. which might happen later, if some regular players cannot play with good performance. Hansi Flick does not hesitate to pull them out, and play young potential players. besides, as a coach who is rich in experience. I am quite sure that Flick realizes that the performance of the young players is so unstable, besides the age factor which is still very young, the lack of playing minutes that causes the ups and downs of the performance of the young players.
it could be that Barcelona's decision not to extend Joao Felix's loan was based on Flick trying the alternative he had, namely with La Masia academy players. I mean, if the regular players do not perform optimally, then these young players will be fielded. I am not sure about Cancelo, but in fact Barcelona needs to strengthen its defense. interestingly, many news reports that Hansi Flick aims to bring Barcelona back with his philosophy. therefore, he plans to bring Barcelona to be champions. although, it is not as easy as he said. we know that Real Madrid looks much more competitive, as well as Ateltico by bringing in several new arrivals in this season's window that can provide tough competition for Barcelona. but still, as Barcelona lovers we will give our full support.

Kids' ads may save money right now, but they're just a band-aid on a real hurt. Laporta and his group are going to play with fire. Their main goal today is to win, but what about tomorrow?

Barcelona is very big, but even big things can fall. They might fall apart if they don't get their house in order

They are already falling apart which is very unfortunate, I don't remember the last time Barcelona won a Champions league, either they start a good season in the first few matches then ruin the rest of it, or the opposite but never recovered totally as the old Barcelona team we use to see. Barcelona fail to create another team or at least close to when Messi was there.
I fail to understand how they couldn't use their great academy for their first team? La masia is one of the best academies to create young talents, so where is the results when it comes to titles?

La Masia is fantastic. Its the heart and soul of Barcelona, and its been bailing them out during these tough times. HOwever, you cant win La Liga or the Champions League with a bunch of kids. I like what Im seeing from the management. They're getting smart, following the Real Madrid playbook, grabbing those free agents. Thats the way to do it. You need that mix of experience and young blood to really dominate.

Barcelona's not just about surviving anymore. They're gearing up to take back their rightful place at the top. And trust me, they're going to get there, even without splashing the cash on big-name loans.

I do understand that these young players will be good one day, better at least, but will it be enough? I mean when these players get better in the future, we think that they will be going to be as good as Vini Jr or Jude or Mbappe? I do not think so, the one that has the biggest potential is Yamal, and I understand that we are going to see that player to become good, and maybe even that level but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with something that will change too much because there are other positions as well.

I feel like we can make that work so I do not think that we are going to end up with something like that, so that is why it is not going to be ending up anything like that at all, we will see Real Madrid will end up being much better.

They have been going through a tough time financially for a few seasons and that is why they couldn’t keep Messi. He was also a player who came out of La Masia and they have an academy with incredible talent. Now they brought Yamal out of there and he is a top quality player who is giving life to Barcelona. They can be successful in the UCL this year with Flick because they are having a really successful season in the friendly matches. Now it is time to show the same performance when the official matches start.

I agree with you. La Masia is truly magnificent. As we have seen in the past, La Masia has saved Barcelona in times of trouble. La Masia saves Barcelona a lot of money. And if anyone can save Barcelona right now, it's only La Masia. Because Barcelona is now in financial crisis. Barcelona do not have the ability to buy players at high prices. At the same time, Barcelona does not have the ability to pay high wages to players.

Barcelona have received some talented young players from La Masia. Barcelona are going to get a young talented player like Lamine Yamal. Although only 17 years old, Yamal is an excellent player. Yamal is going to be a star player of the future if Hansi Flick takes care of him properly.

That's the greatness of Barcelona. When Barcelona is in a financial crisis, they still have hope with young players from La Masia, and fortunately Barcelona also has a coach like Hansi Flick. With young players, he will be able to handle young players to work together to build a solid force that can compete next season. Indeed, as you said, relying only on young players is very difficult to compete in La Liga with Real Madrid, let alone in the Champions League, I think it's natural that Hansi Flick will fail in his first season. However, in the second season, Barcelona's squad has matured greatly under Hansi Flick's guidance because if you look at his philosophy, he is very suitable for Barcelona in building a squad for the long term.

So I think next season Barcelona's ranking will remain below Real Madrid. Although Hansi Flick's first season will be difficult for Barcelona, ​​​​Flick will be able to work solidly with great players in every position. The only thing that can stop Barcelona from advancing next season is injury. Especially if there are players who are injured at the same time (for example, currently Gavi, Araujo, Pedri, Frenkie, and Yamal are all injured). Because, the Barcelona squad does not have a suitable replacement player.

[X-ray]

Young players are good, but you understand that it will take a long time for them to get the necessary experience, and Barcelona needs results now. They are trying to attract new players, they decided not to extend Felix's loan because of this, that is, they are doing something. They can also try to apply Real's strategy and attract players with free agent status to the team, for some teams this is also a working strategy. But Barcelona does not have big problems, they have a balanced team that is ready for the new season.

What Barcelona are implementing at the moment is very suitable because they also need much better results than last season and at least Barcelona can win La Liga again next season. So implementing a strategy of bringing in new players and also strengthening the young players that are already there will be a very good option for Barcelona. And from what you say it also makes more sense because Barcelona not only need young players but also need players who already have experience so that the depth of their squad can be quite balanced.

Barcelona had some, but it seems Flick wants to develop his young player there. Barcelona's squad is young, but capable. They can fight experienced teams. It's impossible for Barcelona to bring more new players to join in the squad.
The financial issue has been limiting them to explore to get the good composition for the squad. I think the current squad is quite balanced, but they need only to add a new pivot on their wingers.

Statistically speaking, La Masia have produced some of football's greatest players of the last two decades as it's been Barcelona's most helping hand in terms of equipping the club with the best legs over the years but they just can't continue to rely on the products of La Masia to have quality first team squads seasonally and like you rightly said, you can't win the Spanish La Liga or the UEFA Champions League with kids. We understand that Barcelona management is currently going through a difficult period in financing the club but they must do their best to sign quality senior players that can play blend well with the young lads in the team and that they've been doing lately. Barcelona if you ask me is still a  work in progress when it comes to reclaiming dominance in Spanish football and I don't expect them to win the league next season.

Barcelona has a beautiful La Masia, their school for young talents. It's cute, but it's not helping them at all. Debt. They're just whistling past the graveyard while it's like a time bomb. Kids' ads may save money right now, but they're just a band-aid on a real hurt. Laporta and his group are going to play with fire. Their main goal today is to win, but what about tomorrow? They get closer to the edge every season that this debt hangs over them. I admire the academy because it has turned out legends. But prayers and hope won't help you build a team.  They need to make a plan for their money right away. It's not just about getting prizes; it's also about staying alive. Barcelona is very big, but even big things can fall. They might fall apart if they don't get their house in order

They are already falling apart which is very unfortunate, I don't remember the last time Barcelona won a Champions league, either they start a good season in the first few matches then ruin the rest of it, or the opposite but never recovered totally as the old Barcelona team we use to see. Barcelona fail to create another team or at least close to when Messi was there.
I fail to understand how they couldn't use their great academy for their first team? La masia is one of the best academies to create young talents, so where is the results when it comes to titles?

Barcelona is a good club, but they haven't had much success in the Champions League since Messi left. However, with a new coach and new players, they can perform well this season and win trophies, even if it's not the Champions League. However, winning the title will be challenging due to a lack of talented players that can perform but since a new coach he can do all is possible best and won trophys for the fans and the club. Every season Barcelona are only club that is challenging Real Madrid most but last Season they didn't get any opportunity in the league and against Real Madrid,  Girona have a change and defeat them home and away. They finish season without a trophy i think that is why they sack xavi in the Barcelona and bring new coach. And I see the coach will help the club very well and win trophys this season for them probably if he will play well against other clubs. Let see if Barcelona can get chance and achieve something this season.
