La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Messi, Neymar don't join the Premier League so Griezman might reject that challenge too. Suarez is different because he played in Premier League when he was young, got success there before the transfer to Barcelona and became a legend there.

It is very risky for Messi, Neymar, Griezman to join Premier League when they are no long young.

Last season, James Rodriguez had good debut and the first half of season in Everton. After that, he was exhausted and lost his best performance.

Players like Messi are not simply let out of the clubs, he is a great player who is able to influence the outcome of the match. In the case of Neymar, this is a lot of show and little result. Yes, Neymar is a talented player, but he does not have a lot of willpower to win, when you watch games with his participation, you get the impression that he is happy with everything and everything suits him.

I read just now, that madrid still have club profits for the last 2 years. Madrid is known to have reported a post-tax profit of €874,000 (Rp 14.9 billion) for 2020-21, up from €313,000 (Rp 5.3 billion) the previous year. But apart from profits they also reported that they lost almost €300 million (Rp 5.1 trillion) during the coronavirus pandemic.

The transfer market in Spain is truly on fire, with all the lights on Barcelona and Atlético Madrid. As we anticipated yesterday here, it seems done for Messi's contract renewal. This was confirmed by Joan Laporta, the blaugrana president, saying that the negotiations are going well. There is a principle of agreement between the club and Lionel, who will reduce his salary and renew for the next 5 years. With the number one priority removed, there has also been an acceleration in the negotiation related to the Saul-Griezmann exchange with Atlético. Barça, by letting him go, would get rid of a very expensive salary, which would favor the renewal of Messi. There has also been talk of other players to be included in the negotiation, such as Lodi or Hermoso of Atlético, to compensate for the value of Griezmann, but for the moment there is still a gap to cover.

Getting a good offer from Barcelona was Messi's priority. Barcelona couldn't make the offer Messi wanted but still Messi didn't see it as a problem and accepted it. This shows how much he loves Barcelona and how much he wants to stay here. He wasn't very content about the performance of the team in the last season though. Barcelona must be very happy to sign him again. And they should work hard to be better in the new season and get some titles. Messi is trying everything and definitely deserves many titles also.

If Messi wanted to leave Barcelona, he would have already accepted one of the many offers from North America or Asia, which also pay not bad and would not have had to pay a transfer fee, so that even more hand money would have been in it for Messi. I think both sides are playing poker but in the end Messi will stay in Barcelona.

Losses due to Corona are unavoidable and I think every club is suffering too. But Real Madrid's financial condition is still better than Barcelona's, it's just that they are still messing around with holes in their defense. After losing Sergio Ramos, Real Madrid have the potential to lose Varane because currently Varane is being approached by Man United, and it is reported that Varane has rejected the contract renewal proposal offered by Real Madrid.

Messi can play at his current level for a couple of years, and it is not profitable for him to leave Barcelona right now. Barcelona will fulfill all his conditions, because at this stage they need him. I think it's about money. Messi, or rather his father, most likely wants guarantees of receiving a fairly large sum from Barcelona. Plus Barcelona needs to part with some players to sign Messi. I think the situation will be resolved in the near future.

According to Goal.com, it's already resolved. It looks like Messi is staying at Barcelona for more years. And it is said that he's even taken a 50% wage cut. He demanded much more from PSG but accepted Barcelona's way worse offer. Like I said before, this shows Messi's allegiance to Barcelona.

Yes, Neymar is a talented player, but he does not have a lot of willpower to win, when you watch games with his participation, you get the impression that he is happy with everything and everything suits him.

I feel like Neymar is a great player, probably the best of his generation, we had Ronaldo/Messi at certain time, and then after them the next generation of great player always been Neymar, and after him now Mbappe and Haaland is taking the generation after him. Just because someone didn't get UCL or showed how great he could be with many many cups doesn't mean that he is a bad player, look at Messi dude never won a copa america until this year does that mean he is not a good player at all? Of course not, and just because he won it this year doesn't suddenly make him a better player neither, he was always the best of his time and that is valid with or without copa america.

The reason why some players do not want to go to certain leagues is the fact the playing style is different, like for example in premier league it is a bit more harsh, in France it is a bit more fast, in la liga it is more technique it really changes from league to league and a player with great technique can shine in la liga but could fail in premier league, same goes for a player who plays hard, he may end up getting red cards constantly in la liga, hence every style has a specific league they can shine and players may not want to change leagues because of that.

They should let Varane go if he wants. He has won almost every trophy at Real Madrid except the Europa cup, so I don't think there's anything new he has to offer there.

By now, Real Madrid should have lined up for a couple of good centre backs in preparation for the replacements, but I don't know why they are taking so long. I, for one, hate last minute transfers.

[hahay]

Messi have announce to stay of Barcelona for few years later and looks possibility for Messi become legend for Barcelona with label one man one club, I see he want to deduct more than 50% his salary to stay with Barcelona. Now waiting with Real Madrid as rival team not any good news about new player coming, after success got Alaba from Bayern now Madrid still not have chance to get new player exactly have to pay with higher value.

It's nice to get information like this, letting his salary be cut to stay at Barcelona I think is the right decision for Messi. If it's like this then I conclude that Messi is really sincere about playing for Barcelona and not just about money, because when Messi can let his salary be cut it is something really great. Because so far players will always prioritize money to play, such as asking for a salary increase but not getting approval and then choosing to leave the club, but if it is true that Messi stays at Barcelona with a fee that has decreased then of course it is a very extraordinary dedication.

Messi with the new contract will end his career in Barcelona and become another legend in Nou Camp, the biggest legend in the club. He deserves it from his contributions, goals, assists, trophies, financial income for the club.

His decision will make his family members happily and it is a happy decision for all, from Barcelona, their fans, to Messi family. Even La Liga will get beneficial effects from the decision. The league will not lose the biggest super star.

Staying in Barcelona and playing more seasons in La Liga will help Messi to get forever record in La Liga. I doubt that there will be other players that can break Messi records.

Records exist in order to break them, someone will definitely do it. Is it true that Messi agreed to get paid 50% less than received before? The reduction is very large and with his talent and playful form, he can even get more while staying in Barcelona. But apparently it's not about money, he makes a lot of money from advertising, so it's not about money, but about commitment to Barcelona.

Last season Suarez was Barca's gift to Atletico he was critical for lifting Laliga and this season it seems that Griezmann (apparently Barcelona financial situation have pushed them to sacrifice couple players so they can keep Messi ) will be the gift  for Atletico Madrid side they are  quietly and intelligently increases their strength, decisiveness, depth, choices and suffering increase in the poles of the league and offensive options.
At the moment, I do not think that Atletico will wait this long again to win another league title.

You're right, Atletico Madrid has already become the top team in LaLiga. Amid weakened Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid can safely defend the title, but I think the main thing for them will be winning the Champions League and next season they have a real chance.

Messi has a close relationship with Barcelona so he doesn't really care about money in order to stay in Barcelona. Likewise with Barcelona, In order to keep Messi, they have to be prepared for the club's financial problems, even though Messi's salary is cut by 50% Barcelona will still exceed their cap. For that, there must be some players to sell or loaned to another club so their expenditures can be reduced and their players (including Messi) can be registered during the new season.

Well, to be honest, even if he doesn't stay, he will become a legend and everyone will probably even feel more sympathetic to his cause, knowing that he wanted to stay and even extended, but that the club couldn't keep him. I do expect everything to be cleared up before La Liga closes the registrations but it's crazy to see my beloved club in such a mess.

Losses due to Corona are unavoidable and I think every club is suffering too. But Real Madrid's financial condition is still better than Barcelona's, it's just that they are still messing around with holes in their defense. After losing Sergio Ramos, Real Madrid have the potential to lose Varane because currently Varane is being approached by Man United, and it is reported that Varane has rejected the contract renewal proposal offered by Real Madrid.

Actually I hope with this news Madrid continue to shop to increase their strength for next season. Ramos is leaving, Varane is leaving it looks like they will lose an experienced defender if they don't buy new players. They also have to buy some front and center players to regenerate aging players. But indeed they have some pretty good players who are still on loan at other clubs.

We all hope Madrid will bought some new players. But we did not see any news of the purchase of new players from the Madrid management. We have not heard any rumors about it. If Madrid does not buy new players, La Liga will not be as competitive as before. Atletico Madrid is very stable. Barcelona is also trying to increase their strength. But Real Madrid is lagging behind.

No matter how things are,I still believe this will be sorted out between the two parties,and Messi will still be a Barca player next season.He has been good to the team undoubtedly,and his good relationship with Barca he cannot dent.Instead,Barca will let other players leave,and retain the unique services of Messi,because they know next season is even going to be tougher considering the rate at which top teams are signing players,and won't let there own best player leave.

Yes, Madrid should have bought some potential young players because Madrid's main experienced players from every line have entered old age. So yes, bringing in young players could potentially be better built from now on, because the process to get back into the title race has to be prepared quickly and Madrid can't just rely on Ancelotti, this is his first season which of course there will be a lot of experimentation to be done.
