La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Ratash]

It's quite sad to see a player who has given everything to a club but in the end has to leave the club, I think ramos' loyalty to real madrid cannot be doubted but as a professional player of course switching clubs is a common thing, especially after contract talks between ramos and madrid did not reach an agreement on a contract extension and after 16 years in Madrid uniform, inevitably he had to find another club to live his career as a footballer, even though nowadays ramos is not young, but in  there are still many big clubs who wanted to sign him because his experience and toughness in defending had been proven so far.

Adiós, Sergio Ramos, Gracias, el Capitán!...!!!
Hala madrid

Yes it sad that such a club legend will leave that way its surely real madrid money problems that made it difficult for him to continue and i am sure he thinks he can offer more and he want another experience in another league.

I think one of the players, Bale or Hazard, should leave.

In my opinion, both Bale and Hazard should leave. Hazard cannot show his best performance since he came to Bernabeu, while Bale often got injured and sit on the bench. If Real Madrid can sell these two players, they can get a quite big amount of money. Then, they can use the money to buy other top players, especially for the attacking line.

Real Madrid needs to find a defender instead of Ramos and perhaps instead of Varan.

Real Madrid already signed Alaba, he can be positioned as CB, replaced Ramos. But it is good if there will be another top CB. Since Real Madrid played in UCL, La Liga, and Copa del Rey, they need more strong defenders, especially for CB. Nacho isn't young anymore, while Militão showed not really good performance in the last season.

David Alaba is a good player and he can play in many positions. It is a smart transfer of Real Madrid when they find another good and younger player with free transfer fee to replace Ramos. However, one thing I am worrying about Alaba, about his leadership. I don't know he can play well as a leader of Real Madrid defense system.

Leonardo Bonucci is a good defender, we all know it but he failed to be a leader of AC Milan defense system. Some players can not be good leaders in a system. They only play well when they are part of a system.

For fans and the madrid team, of course, Ramos is a living legend who has given his all for Madrid over the years, Ramos, who was bought from Sevilla in 2005, has won many prestigious trophies for Real Madrid including five LaLiga trophies and four champions League titles.
According to the news, the departure of Ramos due to Madrid's management not respecting Ramos loyalty to the team, Ramos said that if he only wanted a new contract duration of two years, but Madrid management only wanted to extend Ramos' contract with a duration of one year and also with the option of a reduction in salary.

Mbappe is a perfect future striker for Real Madrid. Ancelotti can put Mbappe-Benzema-Vinícius together in the front line.

Well hopefully Madrid can buy him, because I haven't heard any official news until today. If he did come, then this would be a frightening partner for the enemy. In my local media, I had read that Madrid would sign Mbappe in August but this seems to be just a rumor. I think if he does come Madrid will have to spend a lot of money. This will have an impact on buying players for other positions. Especially when Ramos left maybe Madrid couldn't buy a replacement that had the best quality.

[mv1986]

Seeing Griezmann with France in a role behind a striker who knows his roles well is goingto bring his potential,Unfortunately for Barcelona we see this ghost
 version of the player.
In Atletico he has always been the team champion with his moves, passes and decisiveness in front of the goal.
The difference between the two experiences is the presence of the striker. And his absence.
This maybe is going to be changed next year as he will be just behind Aguero but it's that his roles overlap with Messi then.

Damn, Griezmann was such a brilliant striker. When he transferred to Barcelona it was over. He should have stayed with Atletico. Funny thing is Suarez goes to Atletico and strikes them to the championship. While Griezmann is getting worse and worse.

Griezmann is a brilliant player, but his decision to leave Atletico in my opinion is a bad one. Because with Barcelona Griezmann couldn't find
his best performance. Especially if Messi extends the contract and Barcelona manages to bring in Depay, it looks like Griezmann's position
will be threatened. My suggestion is that Griezmann chooses another club to play for, according to rumors if Ronaldo leaves Juventus,
Griezmann is one of Juventus targets to replace Ronaldo. I hope Griezmann can move to Juventus or another club, so that his career
can develop even better.

I believe that many decisions will be made after the EURO 2021. Griezmann played ok against Germany. This is the tournament even the clubs have been waiting for in order to sort out their options more clearly and make their decisions accordingly. As for Barcelona, I don't know how bad their financial situation is but they will probably be able like always to sign big names anyway.

Indeed, this is still a rumor because there is no certainty about the price offered by PSG to Real Madrid, but what I read from news outside PSG gives Mbappe a good space for his move with great incentives of course this will refer to his high salary later after officially joined the Real Madrid squad.
But it seems like Madrid are ready with everything, even though this price will be safe, but this negotiation will be accelerated because Madrid certainly want it and it is confirmed that this move is certain.
But what I see in the local news is it Official move mbappe? still confused.

[jostorres]

I agree it looks like Mbappe is more adaptable to Real Madrid, but the chances of signing Mbappe are very small.

Even if it is a small chance, it is not impossible.
We know Mbappe wants to go to a big club like Real Madrid. He also can make another history in the number of transfer fees if he moves. Real Madrid should spend a lot of money if they are really serious to sign Mbappe.

Spending a ton of money for a player is not really a priority for many teams right now because they didn't made a good profit (and most of them lost a great deal) because of the pandemic. It means transfers like Mbappe is a pipe dream by the fans right now, not that it can't be done, it could have been done right now as we speak if we never had pandemic, but because of lack of funding it is harder right now and that is why I do not think that it could be done that easily.

This is why I believe there is a good chance no team makes any transfers above 100+ million levels (which mbappe would have been very easily), there is an exception for Chelsea which can buy Haaland if Dortmund agrees to sell, but that is only because they are the team that won the most, 4th in premier league, finalist in fa cup, winner of ucl, all of those equals a ton of money.

[Rengga Jati]

David Alaba is a good player and he can play in many positions.

Yes, he is a multi-talented player, can play in many positions. Not every player can do it, especially for a player who play in a defensive line. As far as I know, at least Alaba can play as Central Defender, wing left back, and defensive midfielder.

It is a smart transfer of Real Madrid when they find another good and younger player with free transfer fee to replace Ramos

He is already 28 years old. He is not young anymore, but it is still a golden age for a professional football player. I am sure Alaba still in his best performance and can maintain it for more than 5 years next. Sure, this is a very smart transfer made by Real Madrid.

However, one thing I am worrying about Alaba, about his leadership.

He doesn't need to be a leader. There are still many other players who can be the leader. Don't worry about leadership, it is not a very crucial thing. I know it is important, but it is not a must for each player.

I don't think it will be a lump sum, especially given the current difficult coronavirus times and falling revenues from the TV market. Therefore, the deal can be drawn up with tranches for several years, and other players can also be included in the deal. By the way, I think that Real Madrid would be happy to buy Mbappe for 100 million euros, because this is a very good price for a player, given his playing level and marketing potential, so the club will find this amount for a deal anyway. Moreover, as far as I understand, UEFA has decided to allow Real Madrid to play in the Champions League, which is important for the club financially.

I think Real Madrid better sell Hazard during have good price

Very much agree with you. There are no reasons to keep Hazard on the squad, he seems not fit with Real Madrid's play of style. Or even he has no good chemistry with other Real Madrid players. If Real Madrid sells Hazard, it may be advantageous to Real Madrid and Hazard as well. Hazard may be fit with his next new club and Real Madrid can get enough money to bring new big players to Bernabeu. Real Madrid should spend big amount of money if they want to buy Haaland or Mbappe.

Hazard is a very talented player. I hope all of you will agree on this. But Hazard could not adapt to other Real Madrid players. And so we don't see the expected performance from Hazard. Real Madrid should sell Hazard and bring in players like Mbappe or Haaland. I think Mbappe can easily adapt to Real Madrid's strategy.

You are right about that Mbappe can adapt to Real Madrid's playing style really easily. But I don't think that we will see this huge transfer happening in this summer at least. Because PSG seem really decisive about keeping him at the club for more time.

If the offer from Real Madrid is big enough I think Mbappe would also want to lave PSG. I don't think they will win the CL anytime soon. They've been close two times but now it will become more and more difficult as self-confidence is also an issue. I do think though that Real's chances for a transfer of Mbappe would have been much better if Zidane was still coach at Madrid. Who knows maybe Zidane will kick out Pochettino at PSG anytime soon!

I also thought it would be hard to poach Mbappe from PSG to Real, the owners of PSG are very rich and if PSG are not going to let Mbappe go, i don't think even Real Madrid can do anything about it.
Besides，i don't think Mbappe can adapt to Real Madrid's playing style easily，who knows the future，did Zidane not think Hazard was suitable for Real Madrid before?

Yeah, you are right about this also. We never know who can adapt easily or hardly. We are just making some predictions about it. Hazard was really great at Chelsea. But his performance has gone down very sharply after he went to Real Madrid.

After the confirmation for Depay's deal yesterday.
Barcelona ended his almost-free deals after contracting 4 players at a cost of only 9 million euros.
Emerson will be in fierce competition with Dest, Garcia to increase depth and competition with Araujo and Mangueza Depay to solve the problems of Barca on the left side Aguero with years' experience To score goals that help Barca win when Messi doesn't score,
And there have been talks that Laporta still aiming for 3-4 more deals so what it will be interesting to see what does Barca need after these deals.

yeah,Depay is really talented,and going to Barca and their style of play will be really good for him.I've been watching him play in this tournament for Netherland.He's very good on the ball,composed and confident.So the signing is really a very nice one for Barca.

Depay is perfectly suited for Barcelona's playing strategy. Depay is a very skilled player. He will be able to adapt himself to Barcelona very easily. But I don't understand why Koeman is only interested in taking the striker, Barcelona's defense is weak, Koeman should strengthen the defense first.

He has shown his level in the past, but I doubt if he can handle this level. If he was really that good, wouldn't a top club have gotten him much sooner? Lyon is really the top of Europe. He used to be a huge disappointment at Manchester United, but then it was still a young man with an annoying character. lets hope he will do better now under koeman

I hope Depay will be able to perform well in Barcelona. In Barcelona, he is getting an experienced coach. Koeman may be able to make Depay more efficient. Depay will also have the opportunity to play with experienced players like Messi, Aguero, Griezmann at Barcelona. My idea is that Depay can become more experienced if he is around experienced players.

Indeed, if this is the football industry, the sense of respect will be lost. Those who are not profitable will not be given a chance. It's all about profit and loss. Real Madrid management did not fulfill Ramos' wishes, maybe because money was difficult or he was old and would no longer be productive. I hope whoever will replace him, it can strengthen Real Madrid for next season.
