La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Raflesia]

They still can't escape the bubble and maximizing young players is indeed a pretty good thing because indeed in the current squad there are a lot of promising young players but the problem is they don't want this and just want to add a few more players.

Their finances are still quite shaken but they still consider this as trivial which makes it really difficult for them to make a decision because there are several consequences that must be accepted from the path they take, whether it's adding players or retaining by maximizing young players.

Financial problems are not trivial problems faced by Barcelona at this time. The proof is that Barcelona has cut the salaries of the players. Therefore I do not see any rash moves from the Barcelona management this summer. Barcelona interest in Lewandowski may well be the point of the work Xavi has undertaken this summer and rumors are circulating that Barcelona are preparing to make a new bid for Bayern Munich in the coming days.

I do agree because financial problems are the biggest problem for Barcelona right now and that is the one problem which is not letting them have a better squad. Well if they did not have any financial problems then they wouldn't have been in this situation in the first place. They have to make some hard decisions right now and I think that the reduction in salary of the Barcelona players was the first step towards that. I don't think that there will be able to get Robert Lewandowski in this season anyway.

Barcelona are still trying to settle their finances but it's quite difficult especially with the cut in player salaries of course this will not agree with everyone so I think Barcelona will take other options to recover him and want to bring in several players including Lewandowski this is still Barcelona's effort to bring him.
I think with the current squad for Barcelona it is good enough if they can play well without signing great players it will be better to balance their finances.

After last week announcement about financial crisi faced by Barcelona have not any new rumor tranafer player exactly with Robert Lewandowski, I think right now Barcelona really faced witj serious financial criai because they have out from many rumor player transfer. Really sad for second time Barcelona got financial trouble and they have quock from many transfer player issues because trough still face qith financial crisis not have chance for Barcelona can active on window transfer player. Just an option keep waiting new investor coming and Barcelona get back busy activities on window transfer.

What is clear is that if Barcelona economic problems cannot be solved, then whatever their plans are will be a big obstacle. So left behind from other clubs. At a time when the Barcelona club is currently struggling from the crisis, they are also faced with uncertainty about Lewandowski, which in terms of financial problems makes the Barcelona manager more silent and does not expose the players who will be included in his club.

There are some extra players in the Barcelona squad who are given high wages by Barcelona, ​​but they are not performing well for the team. Barcelona will be more profitable if they sell these players and add new players to the team. I don't see any need to keep players like Dembele and Braithwaite in the squad. Xavi should now take on an experienced defender team with the money from their sale.

Dembele's performances last season have helped Barcelona rise from adversity since Xavi became coach. Dembele is one of the players expected to stay next season, he proved his worth last season with Xavi but maybe he wasn't in the right hands before. It makes me think why do you think Dembele is not important for Barcelona next season. Xavi can help him grow even better than the previous few seasons and that has proven last season.

I heard that Barcelona is going to sell some of their media rights and get 600 million for it. If this trick succeeds, it will seriously improve their position and allow for more high-profile transfers than even the transfer of Lewandowski. Another thing is that if they do not change their unprofitable model, then gradually they will sell everything they can and someday they will simply have nothing to sell.

And some time ago there were rumors saying that this has been approved by the board of members, they will sell at least 49.9 percent of Barca Licensing & Merchandising (BLM) and 25 percent of television rights for a maximum of 25 years.
This seems like a desperate move from Barcelona but on the other hand this may also be one way from La Porta to cover the debt they currently have.

but behind that the efforts that Barcelona are currently making are to stabilize their finances and also to be able to spend some new players to improve the team's performance in the coming season.
I think that what Barcelona is doing is a positive step for the progress of the club and I believe the way that Barcelona is doing is very effective, if their plans run smoothly.
and even they want to sell some of their players just to buy other players for a better team, this is a great step for the Barcelona team to develop in the future.

Real Madrid aren't in a desperate need of a striker now indeed. Because they already have Benzema. Even though he is getting even older now he is still able to play at a very high level now. As long as he keeps this level Real Madrid wouldn't be in a hurry to replace him in the starting eleven. They might still go for a young striker to increase the competition level and make an investment considering the future too. But they would do this only when they find a really talented striker. They had the chance to sign Mbappe and Haaland but there is no chance now.

I think this will be a bit of a mistake. Even though Benzema is currently still in pretty good form but he is unlikely to play a full season because the worst is always there.
Even though there are some good players up front, Madrid have struggled this season when Benzema has been out of action and this is clearly a serious problem.
In my opinion, there should be at least 1 additional striker that they must bring in this transfer because this is indeed important, in addition to maintaining player rotation, this is also to stabilize goal productivity.

Real Madrid were going to bring Mbappe or Haaland but they couldn't manage to bring any of them. From now on, Real Madrid wouldn't go for a striker transfer as long as they don't find a world star striker like them. They won't be able to go on with Benzema all the time. Benzema would be productive for at least one more season I assume. But after that I don't think that Real Madrid would choose Benzema as their main striker as he is going to be very much old.

Did Dembele play really well last season? Let's look at the statistics. Dembele has played 21 matches in La Liga. He has scored only 1 goal. However, he was able to make 13 assists. He could not made any goal or assist in that Europa League match. We have not seen any goal or assist from him in 3 matches in the Champions League. How can we say that his performance was as expected? Would you say that scoring only one goal in a whole season is a good performance?

Dembele scored six goals in the 2020-21 season, and only one last season. So I don't think Dembele's performance has improved. Not only that, Depay, Fati, de Jong, Torres and Aubameyang are all performing better than Dembele. Why does Barcelona need so many strikers now? Dembele's weekly wages last season were 210,000 euros. So much more than Aubameyang, Fati and Torres. And so I think it is a waste of money for Barcelona to have Dembele in the squad now. Since Barcelona is now in a financial crisis.

I think this club no needs any target other world class players if it fails to recruit Mbappe or Haaland, Real Madrid already has a young striker can has be potential to become world class players. Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo Goes besides that, Eden Hazard is still there, even though this man has not play good for the past 3 seasons due to recurring injury problems, but his health is improving news highlights it too.

[fullhdpixel]

Financial problems are still a frightening specter for a number of teams. Yes it is a difficult factor to solve, the impact on their form of performance in the competition. All teams have to learn from some of the teams that ended up being completely bankrupt because of this, they had to be good at managing their finances even from a long time ago. And must really be held by people who are professionals.

Financial problem is not just a problem for clubs but it is one for every sector. So it does have an impact on the teams as well, when the rates are high, the debt means you need to pay a bigger portion of it, when the economy is bad, customers (fans) do not pay as much etc etc there are many reasons and bad stuff.

We won't be seeing too many high priced moves for example. Because, nobody really has that type of money anymore. Even getting a loan from a bank became harder and let me tell you, football clubs get loans like candy normally. So, it is not going to be easy for ANY team, including even Real Madrid, but it is harshest for Barcelona for sure.

[ILuckyGuyI]

Real Madrid are going to be the biggest contender for the La Liga title once again next season as it seems. However, this time could be much more different than the previous season though. Because Barcelona have started to shine by the beginning of Xavi's management here. They are improving their game day by day and they finished the league by a promising success. It's like Barcelona are reborn now but there is no guarantee for them to do incredible things next season. I wonder whether they will keep this up and I hope they do. This can help us watch a wonderful competition for the title.

For Rodrygo and Vini, I might think this is a good thing because they still have good potential, especially at their age, they are still very young and have a lot of potential to develop.
But for Hazard I don't think there is a chance for him, he is a failed signing for Madrid. Regardless of the reason for the injury or whatever it is he has no chance to compete even if we saw in last season how many times he played. He is a figure who will only decorate the bench until the end.

[BitcoinAccepted]

I agree that Real Madrid is the biggest candidate to win the title. Still, it was a bit of a shock in Madrid last year when Barcelona was already 0-4 at halftime and Madrid played completely lost. That looked like the Barcelona of long ago with Messi and Iniesta, Xavi etc. At the moment Barcelona is not yet stable enough to easily win matches. They could become champions, but against the lesser opponents I think they are letting it down. There will be some changes made during the summer transfer period.

Real madrid will still be the best next season because they are spending more finance to get the best players,  I won't be surprised if they win most of the trophies because they are ready for the to do great things next season and they are making sure they do all necessary things for victory.

[judas]

Real Madrid are already improving their defense line actually. They have signed Antonio Rudiger and it is a big improvement in their defense. They can still sign another defender if they find a good one.

Real Madrid defense is strong enough now, they don't need to sign any defender again. They must focus to look for a striker who can substitute Benzema or play together with him in the front line. Real Madrid is rumored to sign Lewandowski, they must finish it as soon as possible. I think Real Madrid has a good chance to sign him since Lewandowski stated to leave Bayern and Bayern already got Mane as the replacement. Real Madrid only needs to negotiate with Bayern about his transfer fees.

I didn't hear about their serious interest in Lewandowski to sign him now. I just expected them to be interested in this signing in fact after failing to sign Mbappe and Haaland both. It is good to hear about their interest too and this means that there are three teams after Lewandowski now: Barcelona, Real Madrid and Chelsea. These are all wonderful choices for Lewandowski however I think the La Liga can be a slightly better choice for him to play in. I just think that especially Real Madrid's playing style fits him so much.

the wisest thing barca should do right now is keep their finances in order instead of trying to buy expensive players like lewandowski

Bayern have set a very high price for Lewandowski but Barca say it is a cruel thing. I agree with you, for sure Lewandowski will stay at Bayern because the financial crisis of Barca is already serious

[lalabotax]

I think Lewndowski is closer to Barcelona than Real Madrid. Lewandowski himself has expressed his intention to join Barcelona this summer. but if real madrid are interested in lewandowski i think these two clubs will race to send a proposal to bayern munich. As Florentino Perez said, Real Madrid did not move much this summer because in terms of players, Real Madrid can still perform optimally next season with the existing squad.

Lewandowski showed his interest in joining Barcelona before the rumor of Real Madrid joining the competition to sign Lewandowski. Barcelona made a proposal for Lewandowski first, while Real Madrid didn't make a proposal yet. If there is a serious offer from Real Madrid, I believe Lewandowski will state his intention to join Real Madrid as well. Lewandowski only needs a serious club for his destination because he is no longer interested to stay in Bayern. Once there is a club which wants to spend money 40m euros, Bayern and Lewandowski probably agree with that offer.

Regarding Perez statement, he may not spend much money to buy more defenders or midfielders, but for a top attacker he should consider it. Real Madrid only has 1 good center-forward, Benzema. They can't rely on Benzema only a whole season.

The league is not determined by just 1 Elclasico. even though Barcelona won absolutely with a margin of 4 goals at that time but that didn't mean anything because indeed if you look at the continuation of the league that was played after El Clasico, Barcelona again stumbled in performance and was inconsistent again in the face of matches that kept Madrid safe .
Next season will also be the same, even if Barcelona or Madrid win in El Clasico in the end the championship continues and this is not a benchmark.

[Pulsar77]

The league definitely can't be determined by El Clasicos for Barcelona and Real Madrid. The general performance and consistency are everything for this league. Real Madrid were incredible about consistency last season and this helped them reach a very comfortable championship. I'm aware of another thing too that Barcelona were very consistent after a point but it was too late for them to fight for the championship. Next season we can really watch a stronger Barcelona but I also expect Real Madrid to be the closest team to make it.
