La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Ratash]

I don't think real Madrid are in any pursuit for any prolific player except kylian mbappe, but I don't think he is leaving PSG this season, but Madrid has enough talent that they don't need an additional player in their ranks, when Real Madrid went back for zidane I really thought it wasn't a way forward for the Spanish team, and now they need a more qualified Coach than anything else, Madrid won't win a major trophy with zidane in charge.

Yeah i guess mbape is not going to real madrid he is a crucial player for psg and they need him for their champions league title run as for real madrid perez seems in a difficult financial situations and all the good players in the market are really hard to sign with a small budget so perez need to find a solution quickly or real madrid team would have another season without a trophy.

As far as I remember, it seems that Real Madrid has given up trying to arrange a transfer for Mbappe in this transfer window, Mbappe himself does not seem to mind staying at Paris Saint-Germain for now, but would like guarantees of a subsequent transfer to Madrid. I don't think that the transfer of Mbappe or Haaland alone could solve all the Real Madrid game problems. Real Madrid undoubtedly has a fairly powerful squad, but still the level of this squad does not allow us to call the Madrid club the undisputed favorite of the Spanish championship and especially the Champions League, although under certain conditions and elementary luck everything is possible.

Definitely,with the current departures at Real Madrid,I think if proper replacement is not made to fill those vacuum created by Sergio Ramos and Varane,Real Madrid will have a big problem next season.They were looking at the possibility of signing Mbape, but it seems PSG are not ready to let their star man leave considering their champions league ambition,and tittle chaze next season.Alaba has been brought in,but they still need more new faces to energise the old players.

Do you think the replacement of Raphael Varane and Sergio Ramos is possible at all? I don't think so. Varane and Ramos have been playing together at Real Madrid for many long time. They are deeply involved with Real Madrid. In no way is it possible to replace the two players so quickly. Besides, where can Real Madrid find such an experienced defender now? No team is interested in selling experienced defenders.

Paris SG will definitely keep Kylian Mbappe in the team. They made very good transfers. They added names such as Sergio Ramos and Donnarumma to their squad. Mbappe's contract is one year away and we read that Paris SG is considering paying the same fee as Neymar. Still, if Mbappe wants to leave, Paris SG should sell him this year.

We'll probably never see the likes of Ramos again for Real Madrid, at least not until a while more. Remember it also took him, just like Messi and other greats, a number of years to even establish themselves, let alone find another partner or a few others to work well together.

So no, you can't replace them, but you can for sure still find good alternatives.

If Mbappe doesn't want to stay at PSG, maybe PSG will let him go and look for a new player. Since PSG has enough money they can take on a player like Lewandowski or Haaland. However, if Mbappe stays at PSG this season, he will benefit. Because, PSG has arranged the team this season with the goal of winning the Champions League

I agree with you, for now (in a short time) it is very difficult to find a replacement like Ramos at Real Madrid, but I am very sure that in the future Real Madrid will find a replacement.

Btw, Have You Seen Jesus Vellejo's playing style? His playing style is very similar to that of Sergio Ramos, he is still very young and there is still a lot of time to develop his playing skills.

[Mistafreeze]

The best for Griezman is joining PSG, or stay in La Liga and return to Atletico Madrid. Will the exchange offer be finished, for Griezman and Joao Felix? I don't think Atletico Madrid will sacrifice Felix to get Griezman.

You don't just refer him to a team without looking at the Calibre of players they have got there,a wide range of attacking options and you still expect him move down that ends. Imagine a team with Icardi, Neymar, Mbappe,Di Marria,Moise Mean,Sarabia,how do you expect him go down there again? A return to Athletico Madrid won't be a bad option IMO. He should know the team very well than anyone does, settling down won't be hard for him as well, hopefully he knows what's best for him.

In an unexpected decision, Carlos Bacca, 34yrs old, has chosen to part ways with Villarreal a year before his contract would have expired. The Colombian striker free of ties signed for Granada last week. After reaching a max valuation of €30m when bought by AC Milan in 2015, now Carlos is hovering around a €2m valuation. Granada finds a good striker who is almost at the end of his football career but who may find the right environment to spend at least 2-4 more years of pro football.

PSG is currently in a state of urgency, because Mbappe has said he wants to join Real Madrid, so it's best that PSG immediately sell Mbapppe before
his contract runs out and can leave on a free transfer. The problem is Real Madrid don't have the money to buy Mbappe, therefore Real Madrid are
now trying to sell some of their star players to get money to bring in Mbappe. So far Real Madrid are trying to sell Varane and Vinicius Jr to
Manchester United in order to get Mbappe. If both of them are successfully sold by Madrid to Manchester United, the move to get Mbappe is
getting closer. I agree that Lewandowski or Haaland are the right choices for PSG to replace Mbappe.

PSG is not going to sell Mbappe this year. They didn't just spend a lot of money on transfers in this window to let go of the best player. The main goal of PSG next season will be the Champions League and the team will need Mbappe to win this tournament.

Ramos is not that hard to replace because he was already quite old when he left, he is currently in PSG and that may confuse some people's minds but this dude was considering Qatar as an option just a month ago, PSG getting all the free agents this season changed a bit of his career as well, wijnaldul, donnarumma and I think one more person but I forgot, all went to PSG this year to build a superteam there.

However do not let it fool you that Ramos was still an awesome player. Varane on the other hand was a very good player and it is a shame that they lost him, but they got Alaba instead, I do not really think that they are in big trouble at this moment. Think about it this way alaba+militao defensive line at the back doesn't sound too bad does it? I mean they do not have many more left, that is just the two of them but it is still very good two players.

I will be looking for ward to join again this season if all goes well. I wasn't able to join the Copa América League because I wasn't going to get any chance to watch any game throughout the tournament, but for La Liga, I will make sure I join it.

However do not let it fool you that Ramos was still an awesome player.

He was.

How many players have the great pitch leadership skill Ramos had?
How many players in Real Madrid right now have the confidence and impeccable penalty scoring record like Ramos had?

By leadership you mean the ability to kick the rivals to injury and send them home despite a flagrant yellow deserving aggression? The quality in those teams is not really about scoring or leading, is much more about remaining self-motivated after quite a few years of massive earnings, having your life (and probably your sons and grandsons lifes) shorte and still wanting to wake up every day to do your best and keep being elite. Did Ramos have that... yes. Was he the only one... no.

Let me simplify this;
I challenge you to name any Centre Back in La Liga who was better than Sergio Ramos in the past decade in all aspects (scoring goals and leading the team despite being a defender)

Goals win matches, not the least amount of yellow cards.

How many Rivals did he "kick" to injury and send home, if you really watched La Liga matches?

[AndySt]

Mbappe become free transfer player if PSG not sell him in this year because left one year contract on PSG and Mbappe have announce not any extended of new contract, I think bad choose for PSG if not sell Mbappe in this year because they not get anything next year when Mbappe left club with free transfer. Better sell mbappe right now because many club waiting for his sign and Real Madrid become his destination.

It turns out that Paris Saint-Germain perfectly understands the consequences of this step and the potential acquisition of Mbappe's free agent status. The transfer situation is beginning to resemble the story with Donnarumma, when Donnarumma also left as a free agent, although the reasons there were slightly different. And Donnarumma eventually came to Paris Saint-Germain. Funny, isn't it? I think that Paris Saint-Germain hopes to take advantage of the difficult financial situation at Real Madrid, it's not for nothing that Real Madrid seems to have decided not to buy Mbappe in this transfer window and in the end persuade the player with a very good contract. Another question is whether it will work out in the end.

[kawetsriyanto]

Mbappe become free transfer player if PSG not sell him in this year because left one year contract on PSG and Mbappe have announce not any extended of new contract

Where do you know the information, mate?
If it is valid information, selling Mbappe is the best option. It will become a bad decision to hold Mbappe and not trying to consider other clubs' offers to sign Mbappe. I am not sure PSG can convince Mbappe to stay if he really has a big intention to leave and go to his dream club. As Real Madrid looks like his dream club, PSG is better to consider Real Madrid's offer if any. It will be good for PSG and for Mbappe as well.

If PSG decide not to sell Mbappe, they make a bad decision, because they will miss the opportunity to get income from the sale of Mbappe.
I know PSG is a rich team with healthy finances, but they also definitely don't want to suffer losses by releasing Mbappe on a free transfer.
I am optimistic that Mbappe will be sold this year, because Mbappe has refused contract extensions from PSG. After all, in my opinion, why is
PSG holding back a player whose heart is no longer at PSG?. Even though he plays for PSG, it is possible that Mbappe will not play wholeheartedly.
