La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[zuzie]

Barcelona are in a bad shape financially but they must find a way out in this. They really need to make their current squad stronger to compete harder in the Champions League especially in next season. The current one might not be quite enough for them to be too much competitive. Xavi would like to see his team doing their best to achieve the Champions League title in the end. It is the same for the La Liga title too of course. They haven't been becoming the champions in the La Liga for three years and in the Champions League for seven years.

Exactly, because Barcelona managements will not allow this opportunity to pass them than to use this opportunity to sign in some talented strikers that will help the team to achieve victory next season. Barcelona team need strikers that know how to attract early goals from any match, which will really cost the managements a huge amount of money. I think, the managements are fully ready to use any amount of money to admit talented strikers that will improve the team and to help them to achieve la Liga league title in next season.

Do you still think Barcelona needs to spend more money to get a talented striker? The Barcelona squad includes talented young strikers like Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres. Memphis Depay and Aubameyang are quite experienced players. Also Dembele and de Jong are good enough players. Despite having so many talented players at the forward, does Barcelona need a new striker now? They can look for experienced midfielders. Barcelona also needs experienced defenders. If the defense is not strong, it is much more difficult to win against strong teams.

For midfielders, Barcelona still have Sergio Busquets who has enough experience in various international leagues, but maybe he needs help on the right and left I think Barcelona need to consider midfielders to help Busquets there. For a defender, the combination of pique, alves and jordi alba in my opinion is strong enough to keep the barcelona defense, but I rarely see the three of them appear in one match

Busquets are experienced enough, no doubt. Also Pedri and Frenkie de Jong are very talented and promising players. However, they are not experienced enough. Barcelona needs an experienced midfielder. Need more than that, experienced defender. Although Gerard Pique and Jordi Alba are experienced enough, they are older. They are more likely to be injured. So Barcelona now needs to find a replacement for them.

Snip.

Barcelona will strengthen the midfield and back line, especially in the defensive midfield position because Sergio Busquets has entered old age. De Jong and Pedri can still be relied on, Barcelona need the right midfielder and able to set the rhythm of the game. Barcelona will also overhaul the defense, Samuel Umtiti, Mingueza and Clement Lenglet are among the players the team will no longer need next season. Xavi wants the best for the club as well as the player, he invites players who are not included in his plans to find a new club.

Judging from Xavi's plans for next season in rebuilding the spirit of the Barcelona club, it is still very big so he will look for every player needed to strengthen all lines of the Barcelona club for next season and transfer players that are no longer needed to another club so that the name of the Barcelona club can shine again next season by winning more games, and of course I think that is not easy.

With the limitations that Barcelona now have, Xavi will of course be extra in selecting the players that the club really needs to reduce their spending figures in buying players. Actually, there is no need to be too big in recruiting players, it's just that choosing the right players is often difficult and many even fail with fantastic transfer prices. Of course we should see Xavi's performance in bringing in players, as he did when he brought Aubameyang.

[Doell]

Barcelona is still facing a fairly serious problem, the financial crisis, at there are many reports regarding another salary cut for senior players in order to bring in some talented players such as de maria and lewandowski. Maybe next season will not be as smooth as their fans expect, to get another title the Club will have to fight hard.
Real Madrid losing a few players quite a bit confused, but Ancelotti does need a young talented player like Diaz who is widely rumored to be brought and back to Real Madrid, but also certainty is not clear.

Barcelona limitations regarding finances are indeed a big obstacle. Because if we look at Barcelona with good finances, it will not be difficult to fight in the Europa League with the performance of more aggressive players. But so far when they closed La Liga in the second place it has proven a good improvement. So there's nothing wrong with next season being able to show even better performance. Next season there is still time and fixing the finances in the remaining time they may be working on.

Barcelona need to push their economic limits this year. Finishing second in La Liga will of course lead to good earnings, but it should not be forgotten that their arch-rivals Madrid closed this year as champions of the Champions League. I think Barcelona will be a team that can push themselves and beat the economic situation with those limits. They are like the cs team that chose the eco hand this season

Barcelona under Xavi leadership very good because he has boosted the mentality of players when the economic situation is bad, that strength comes from him, so the players remain confident they will be successful under him next season. De Jong is a good asset at this time still wants a career in Barcelona and Xavi sees himself as a long term asset, but the economic situation is widely heard that he will leave, I think it's the wrong decision if the board does that, Barcelona needs big investors to improve the economy, transfer market will still not be strong enough to sustain the crisis.

It is a financial factor that can destroy a team. Some players were forced to leave because the team could no longer afford to pay. If this more difficult situation continues at Barcelona, it will be more difficult for Xavi to keep what he has built. Barcelona's management had to rack their brains to save their financial situation from deteriorating.

Barca seems to still have problems related to the club's finances. The process of buying players this season will certainly be a little disrupted. The reason, Xavi himself expressed interest in several players who want to be brought to Barcelona.

while De Jong is negotiating with United. there is no agreement yet, but it looks like Barcelona wants to swap him for another player.

I think Barcelona's central midfielder is complete with the arrival of Kessie from milan, Kessi is able to present the Scudetto for milan this season, this proves that he is a very good midfielder. I myself have seen how Kessi controls the game, his game is extraordinary just like Xavi when he was young. I think Xavi was right in choosing a central midfielder for Barcelona.
And I have information that Lewandowski will almost certainly wear the Barcelona jersey.

[Pandu Geddon]

And I have information that Lewandowski will almost certainly wear the Barcelona jersey.

the statement was only from Lewandowski, it was his wish that he wanted to experience Barcelona. while the contract with Munich is still until next year. This means that if Barca wants to continue negotiations with Munich, of course, they must prepare quite a lot of funds.
Lewandowski already feels uncomfortable with Munich. therefore he wanted to go to Barca, especially after Munich signed Mane. There is even news, that Lewandowski did not participate in pre-season training.

I wonder how PSG at least formally manages to "squeeze" into the FFP framework. To renew the contract with Mbappe they spent approximately 300 million (signing bonus plus salary) and continue to spend money right and left. The president of La Liga promised to punish them for this, but with the support of corrupt UEFA officials, PSG will again get away with it 

Paris saint germain should be kicked off from every competition for his football conduct and his president, totally awful.

Anyway, what they has made with Mbappe is approximatively to weakness, considering that with this move they has delivered club in the hand of Mbappe and Mbappe now can do whatever he wants.

I don't think that this can't go on for a long time.

Now there are two obvious cheating teams - City and PSG, but if City has been punished for cheating (albeit a little), PSG is an untouchable club and even the bastard UEFA president openly defends it from criticism. Under such conditions, one cannot even dream that PSG will be punished for any violations. The only thing you can hope for under such conditions is external influence - either a Superleague will be created that will simply bankrupt this corruption dump or law enforcement agencies (for example, the USA) will punish UEFA/FIFA officials for their deeds.

Apart from that, you actually won't be able to compare Barcelona's financial condition with Madrid's for now because the comparison is very far and it won't be possible to be the same.
They do have a good position in 2nd place but their loss last season was also big even they lost their bonus because they lost in the Champions League and didn't get anything in the Europa League which made them continue to lose financially.

Of course, they only had the power to win the Europa League. I was thinking of Barça as the biggest favorite for the Europa league, but they were a big disappointment. They actually lost the bonuses themselves. Therefore, it is clear that they are in financial loss next season. They should make good use of the transfer season.

it's been a long time now and there's no need to discuss it again because even if it's discussed the results won't change even if they say their chances are big but the result they still lose isn't it.
In this case I prefer to look to the future whether Barcelona will be ready or not for next season because it will be very difficult if they are not ready and for sure when something like that happens it is very likely that Madrid will run as fast as this season to achieve champion again

Barcelona financial condition does seem to be still unstable, but now their finances are no longer as bad as it had been some time ago, I think Barcelona can still prepare their squad for next season although maybe the funds they have are not as big as a few seasons ago, but there are agreement with a new sponsor and also they can now get income from tickets of course the money can be used to buy some new players later, besides that there are several options for Barcelona to increase their budget, namely by selling some players who do not have any contribution at all to club.

If their finances haven't improved then buying players seems like a difficult thing. The redemption option could probably be their solution. But if you look at the transfers of some Spanish clubs, indeed they are not making purchases crazy. There is no news of star players coming to the club in Spain. If this happens until the end of the transfer season I think the Spanish League will still be the same. Barcelona, Atletico and Madrid will dominate again for next season.

This is indeed apt to describe Barcelona financial situation has not improved. The proof is that for now Barcelona want to get Raphinha signature. But Leeds will release Raphinha for €60 million. In which Barcelona only made a first bid of €35 million for Leeds and is this the end point of their bid for a winger? From this side of Barcelona, ​​we can see that Barcelona are again in a financial situation that prevents them from being able to bring in star players in this transfer market. Barcelona are looking to pursue their next target in the transfer market this season, Barcelona might go to Di Maria and Januaz if they fail to land Raphinha.

You are right for Barcelona I believe in a player who even now will remain an ideally positioned club to continue to be at the top of the rankings. If you are only able to pay a salary and are willing to pay Lewandowski, it is considered enough to be Barcelona's defense in the future. Even when Barcelona's finances were still slumped, they were forced to become a club that struggled more.

I really don't understand what's the point of PSG buying new players because they are not going to be able to do anything even with the best squad. It's not like they have not tried that, they tried to win the Champions League with the best attack anything could have ever dreamed of and they still lost. They are just farming money by not having any competition in the league. They genuinely have only one challenge which is the Champions League and they keep closing again and again. And they are being defended every time for their bullshit.

Lewandowski desire to leave Bayern Munich he has conveyed to several media and uniquely he is honest if he only wants to move to Barcelona, ​​currently Lewandowski is still under a 1 year contract with Munich and Lewandowski statement to leave should be considered by Munich right now, Lewandowski is one of the best strikers that bayern munchen has but bayern münchen shouldn't let lewandowski leave for free next season, it's better for bayern münchen to sell him immediately so that that way they can get money to get mane from liverpool as a substitute, after all holding a player who not wanting to stay any longer will of course only hurt the team in the future because after all the player will play half heartedly, I think bayern münchen will allow lewandowski to leave if they have reached an agreement with liverpool about mane.

[DukeNickle]

Robert Lewandowski talked a little about Bayern Munich like he was really determined to leave. He must be very contented with the years he had with them and in the Bundesliga. Barcelona really seem to be the closest team to sign him for now even though their finance is not in a very credible condition right now. If they are this much determined then I guess they are confident to allocate the funds needed to sign him. Barcelona really need to improve their squad quality and bringing Lewandowski would be a great start.

For midfielders, Barcelona still have Sergio Busquets who has enough experience in various international leagues, but maybe he needs help on the right and left I think Barcelona need to consider midfielders to help Busquets there. For a defender, the combination of pique, alves and jordi alba in my opinion is strong enough to keep the barcelona defense, but I rarely see the three of them appear in one match

It looks like Pique is 35 years old as Alba is 33 years old. Although they have a lot of experience, but their physique will decline even more. So when you look at the quick counterattacks they sometimes have trouble with the fast strikers. I think Xavi is not wrong to start looking for a replacement. As for Busquet he is 33 years old at the moment he is Xavi's core player, but for the long term it seems like Xavi has to start looking at other players. Maybe xavi can take advantage of this month's transfer season. But do they have money?  that's probably the problem right now.
