La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[lulumiya]

It is still vague whether Barcelona are going to be able to complete the agreement with Bayern Munich for Lewandowski. Like you people said Bayern Munich have already rejected Barcelona's third offer too. This must be really annoying for Barcelona as they would like to finish the deal as soon as possible. However it doesn't seem like this process is affecting them negatively right now too. Because they are going for their other targets like Raphinha on one hand.

We will continue to watch the conversation about Lewandowski with Barcelona until someone really relents. It could be that Barcelona will succumb to despair "giving up", or they also agree on the price that Bayern Munich wants. Or Bayern Munich give up and agree on a proposal if Barcelona re-submit a fourth time. But I'm not so sure that Bayern Munich will lose.

I assume that Real Madrid are going to be favoured for the league title again. They had a really good dominance last season and they would like to keep it up. They have completed nice deals so far Tchouameni and Rudiger. They are trying to keep the squad quality as high as possible. For now I started seeing them as the most reliable team for the title next season. But things can change after seeing the performances. I wonder what Barcelona will do and how they will answer them. Xavi is doing good and we will see if they will keep this going next season too. It'd be lovely to see a good competition between these teams.

As defending champions, Real Madrid will have a tough job next season so Ancelotti will have to deepen his squad to face the intense competition in the title race.
I assume Xavi can ruin the greatness of Real Madrid next season. Barcelona just needs to add a central defender to strengthen the squad considering Pique and Lenglet did not perform well last season.

Barcelona are currently focused on getting Poland and Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski.
Actually, Barcelona's front line is quite solid. Aubameyang performed well last season assisted by Ferran Torres and two talented young players namely Gavi and Pedri.

Saha wonders how long Barcelona will chase Lewandowski? Meanwhile, their third bid was rejected by Bayern Munich. They should have realized that earlier and started looking for players if Lewandowski couldn't be found. Now I doubt Bayern Munich will let Lewandowski go with an offer that Barcelona might return to.

Barcelona will not give up on Lewandowksi signature this summer. indeed several offers have been rejected by Bayern Munich but it is not a big problem for Barcelona because every negotiation always goes with full of obstacles to reach an agreement. Even Bayern Munich is ready to play a big role in the hunt for the signature of Cr7, so the chances of Barcelona to re-submit a proposal for the fourth time to Bayern Munich I think will end successfully if Bayern get Cr7.

After their third offer was rejected by Bayern Munich, it looks like Barcelona will give up on signing Lewandowski. According to rumors circulating, 40 million euros will be the last offer that Barcelona made to Bayern Munich, due to being rejected again, it is likely that Barcelona will cancel their intention to buy Lewandowski.
As an option from the failure of Lewandowski's transfer, Barcelona immediately targeted other players, especially after receiving an injection of fresh funds so that they could continue the negotiation process for Raphinha and Barcelona had reached an agreement of 60 million Euros with Leeds United for Raphinha.

I assume Xavi can ruin the greatness of Real Madrid next season. Barcelona just needs to add a central defender to strengthen the squad considering Pique and Lenglet did not perform well last season.

Tight competition for the title will definitely be very interesting especially this is about the two top teams in Laliga. Barcelona are starting to show evidence that they can be good title contenders for this season after performing well in the previous season with their new coach. Xavi has lifted the spirits of Barcelona's players, he also managed to make the team finish second last season and qualify for the Champions League after slumping at the hands of Koeman.

Barcelona are currently focused on getting Poland and Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski.
Actually, Barcelona's front line is quite solid. Aubameyang performed well last season assisted by Ferran Torres and two talented young players namely Gavi and Pedri.

As for Lewandowski, I think his transfer is still unclear. Maybe Barcelona can get him, but he is still under contract with Bayern Munich until the end of this season. There is a possibility that he will stay at Bayern Munich if they do not receive an offer that suits him. Aubameyang, Torres, Dembele, Pedri, Gavi, Fati and several other players are expected to contribute well this season. So I think it's good to hope that Barcelona can compete with Real Madrid for the title this season.

Who do you think is the right fit for Barcelona to sign if they give up on Lewandowski? I thought a little wildly, now it is reported that Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Manchester United following something that makes him uncomfortable. Seeing the opportunity, what do you think if Cristiano Ronaldo became part of Barcelona? Lol

Bayern are continuously rejecting Barcelona offer for Lewandowski because they really don't want him to leave Bayern now.They are hoping he stays for more seasons,because they really want to win the champions league,and it's only when a proven goal scorer is in the team that the team can achieve it goal,therefore,they are really finding it difficult to let go of Lewandowski because he is the only player who can give them the numbers of goal they'll desire.

I also think it, but we have to say that relation between Lewandoski and Bayern is broken now, so, it is no sense that they are trying to suppress him, because the next year he won't give his 100% to team. Most probably

also is that team will keep him outside of the field for the entire year, and at the end of year he will be transfered to Barça

I talked about the Raphinha deal so soon like I was seeing a guaranteed move to Chelsea for him. However the recent news show that Barcelona are very likely to steal the deal all of a sudden. He is willing to join Barcelona right now as it seems and Chelsea can really fail in this race. It would be a big disappointment for them after bringing the deal to this point. But there is nothing they can do while Raphinha himself isn't thinking of joining them. However I wonder if Barcelona have given up on their target to sign Lewandowski because they will spend a lot of money for Raphinha already.

I see in some media barcelona have to spend at least $35 million to get Raphinha
Besides that, with Barcelona's plans to sign Lewandowski and some other star issues, Barcelona's chances of signing Raphinha are very slim. And barcelona are not the only ones interested in Raphinha so I think leed united will charge a pretty high price

[KTChampions]

So what's your suggestion? Buy Mbappe and Haaland?  You cannot have two Ronaldos in attack or two Buffons as goalkeepers. If circumstances develop in a negative way, then Vinicius will play a clean striker. In the future, Real will look for a replacement for Benzema, but now there is no urgent need for this.

Let's think Real Madrid has signed Haaland to replace Benzema, and Benzema has retired. Do you think Haaland will start a good performance as soon as he joins the Real Madrid squad? It takes a lot of time for a player to adapt to a team. And so at least a season before Benzema leaves, Real Madrid should find a replacement for Benzema and join the squad. Vini is certainly a talented player, he could be Benzema's replacement if Benzema is not in the squad. However, the title cannot be expected based on the performance of just one player.

"Ready" players usually start playing right away without "give me a year to get used to it". Especially if we are talking about high quality players like Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic, Benzema, etc. I am sure that next season Haaland will be close to breaking the league record for goals scored. At the moment there is no suitable striker on the market (we do not take into account Lewandowski and Ronaldo due to age), so Real Madrid will solve this problem later and there is still time.

Is it possible that Lewandowski will experience the same thing as Mohamed Salah at Liverpool? Because there were so many rumors circulating about Sadio Mane leaving Anfield, but in the end he (Mohamed Salah) officially signed a new contract with Liverpool.

For me, Xavi Hernandez can make Ferran Torres and Ansu Fati as strikers next season because the ability of these two young Spanish boys is also good in the striker position.
Just like Real Madrid who had Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr as goalscorers when Benzema struggled to do his job up front.

yeah i really agree with you, Raphinha is a well talented player, he's always serious on the pitch, he's admired cause of his quality skills and dribbles, and his goal scoring ability. as we all know, Raphinha is so important to leeds, cause he is their key player, and he has helped the team alot. so letting go of him is so hard to them, cause they knew his importance in the team, and they know what his absent might cause. as it stands now raphinha is linked with a move to some top quality clubs in europe, chelsea and barcelona are the two clubs taking the lead to sign him. though raphinha has always dream of playing for barcelona, and he has chosen barcelona against chelsea. but as it stands now, barcelona are trying their best to setup the team and are trying to bring in some quality players that will bring back the team, but the teams have some outstanding problems that they are trying to resolve, they are having financial challenges recently. so bringing in raphinha won't be that easy, cause they are also going for lewandowski, which they haven't sign cause of the price place on him and that's their major problem this season, they can't sign quality players because of their price.

What happened in one year, Barcelona's financial situation fixed? What did I miss? They couldn't even sign Messi last year and now all of a sudden they can spend 40-50 million on Lewa and 35 million to Raphinha? I'm not sure if Raphinha worth 35 million Euro or if he's the ideal signing for Barca but I know Barca need to sell some players before making big transfers. If they sell Frenkie de Jong for a good price these transfers also can happen. Laporta said he doesn't want to sell De Jong so this makes the situation even more confusing.

But fortunately Barcelona is currently the same case as Lewandowski, reportedly Raphinha also really wants to play for Barcelona and even the offer submitted by Chelsea can be said to have been rejected by Raphinha. Instead of moving to Chelsea Raphinha said it would be better to stay at Leeds and wait for Barcelona's finances to recover at least until next winter, I'm just amazing they are not pegged or tempted by money because they are willing to be patient to be able to play for Barcelona.

Barca have got Christensen and Kessie, this is what is predicted to be the opening for Barca's success again (will make Barca's achievements and finances go up again)

it's been reported that barca has been Rapinha's dream club for a long time, this is what makes him not interested in chelsea. raphinha is a principled person, I value him compared to mbappe LOL (who only loves money and power)

I also have the same thought. It looks impossible for Barcelona to sign Lewandoski and Rapinha without sacrificing the players they have. Even before Laporta issued a statement that they would not let De Jong go, there are rumors that they are pressing De Jong to willingly move to Man United and there was no news regarding a solution to the financial crisis that Barcelona was facing.

So if they can actually sign Lewandoski and Rapinha without having to sell players, then it will be a real surprise. However, I have the assumption that the statement made by Laporta is a strategy to boost De Jong's selling point

I think Barcelona this season is also supported by their new sponsor and that might help him financially. But of course to bring in some players who have contracts from other teams requires them to spend a lot of money. And the current situation is Barcelona don't have enough money to buy without selling players or something.

I don't expect them to push themselves too hard to sign Lewandowski if they don't have a good way to make money. While Aubameyang, who was brought in from Arsenal, still makes a good contribution to them, which he proved last season. So it is a very complicated situation for Barcelona because of the need for new players to increase their title chances this season, but Real Madrid must not applaud Barcelona's current predicament.

I think barcelona will still try to get him because at this club they get a very large injection of funds so it will be very capable if they take Robert Lewandowski, from a player perspective he is very accepting and wants to go to barcelona, currently only Bayern Munich is making it difficult to let him go because I think it's very natural that when he loses a very professional player as a main striker it will be difficult to find a player like this again.

Very confusing situation is currently happening to Barcelona, ​​some time ago when it was reported that they were experiencing with financial crisis and they were looking for options by cutting off their senior salary. But on the other way, Barcelona was surprised by the transfer Lewandowski and Raphinha. I think financial crisis maybe the reason for Barcelona how reach agreement with several Barcelona player want give cut off their salary, have another side with Barcelona try to get Lewandowski from Bayern Munich with 35 million euro and Raphinha from Leeds United could be more than 50 million euro depending how English media make several player have expenaive values.

Barcelona's financial condition is always rumored to have never been good but they basically get some money from sponsors and other businesses and that might be ignored. I think it's good to hear that Barcelona are brave enough to make high bids on players like Lewandowski and Raphinha, it has told us they might be able to do it regardless of how their financial condition is reported in the media.

So far Barcelona have managed to cut the salaries of their players and now every player will get a lower salary. Honestly, I salute the Barcelona players, they are willing to contribute and are willing to cut their salaries just for the benefit of the club in the long term. It's a big sacrifice from the players for their team while there are other players who are willing to leave just because their demands for a salary increase are rejected by the club.
