La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[LGD2Business]

Sevilla made additions to the defence. They bought Marcao from Galatasaray and paid 15 million Euro. They will also give 10% profit from the next sale. He is thought to be good on defense but has no goal contribution. I'm not sure he is the player Sevilla is looking for. I guess we'll see in time.
I read that Barcelona will pay 72 million Euro for Raphinha. Do they really have that much money to spend on this player? I'm not sure how they go about the budget. They may experience the same financial difficulties again next year.

[Alanaz]

Vinícius Júnior claimed has been signs new contract until 2027 although this news hasn't published yet but transfer guru Fabrizio Romano believe the agreement is already deal and he deserved for this contract because since arrived in 2018 last season is the best achievement for him that in all competitions he scoring 22 goals and score important goal for Madrid while against Liverpool on champion league final and besides him Rodrygo Goes also will get new contract

Well, for sure this is something good for Vini and Rodrygo considering in this regard they have played well this season.
Vini is a pretty good asset at the moment, apart from being a young player he is also one of the key players for Madrid this season.
His movement is good enough on the Madrid wing which makes him something to keep up with.

[marcous]

Yes, they have succeeded in concocting tactics by placing players of different generations. But what is more important is that their young players are playing very well and can follow input from their seniors. Because usually young players are still in a high ego phase. But I didn't see that at Real Madrid last season, which means their players both understand and want to work together for the team.

Because young players have minimal flight time so their ego are always high, Vinicius Junior Brazilian youth player career is still long and with Real Madrid he will be very great in the future, maybe one of the players that many big clubs are targeting in the future. I think Benzema will probably stay at the club until Real Madrid find the right striker to replace him.

Vinicius Junior has grown a lot while playing with Benzema, he looks more mature without putting the ego first like a few seasons ago. Benzema is not only a player in the Real Madrid squad, he can also inspire young players to be mature on the pitch. The combination of young players and veteran players has brought Real Madrid to the championship ladder.
Real Madrid are lucky to have a player like Benzema, he is able to do a good job. But he can't fight age, Real Madrid must quickly find a suitable replacement for him, sooner or later he will retire.

I think that there is no way Real Madrid are selling Vinicius Junior to any team for a very long time also. He has proven his quality at a really early age especially thanks to Benzema. They have made a great duo and this helped Vinicius to shine already. His contribution last season was so valuable for Real Madrid that I understand the reason why they wanted to extend his contract already. He is the future of Real Madrid for sure. I just wish Mbappe also comes to the team next season.

Barcelona's rumour about trying to sign Bernardo Silva seems like real. Mundo Deportivo also shows that Barcelona are really after him now. However this deal could be very expensive for Barcelona at the same time. Because his contract ends in three years and has a value of 80 million euros in the transfer market. I wouldn't expect Manchester City to demand an amount way below his value now. As Barcelona are after Raphinha also I don't think they can afford both of them.

I don't really understand what Barcelona are doing at the moment. They are currently in a very crazy crisis but they are preparing to spend huge sums of money now because if their current transfers are still being rumored against Lewandowski, Raphinha and B. Silva then it is not less than 200 million they have to prepare.
Will they repeat the burial of themselves like last season?
They were even in arrears on the players' salaries, and now they were preparing to do something unreasonable.

Information Vinicius Jr. has been published, even respect deserves to be given by Real Madrid for him considering the role and hard work that Vinicius Jr was able to prove amid many questions until the plan was released.
There is a figure that this young Brazilian star cannot forget on his journey to Real Madrid superstar, Carlo Ancelotti.

Since he came to coach Real Madrid, Don Carletto took him off the bench losing to the shadow of Karim Benzema.
Now Real Madrid can forget about Klyan Mbappe and the striker position belongs to Vini as written in Marca.

But i think its still a loss for real madrid not been able to sign mbappe he is a really good winger, he woulve formed a strong trio with benzema and vini jr, hazard does not seem in a good shape since he arrived at real madrid imagine how strong they would've became if mbappe joined.

Now Real Madrid can forget about Klyan Mbappe and the striker position belongs to Vini as written in Marca.

I don't see any relation between Vinicius and playing as a striker. Because his main positions are left and right wings. He played as a striker in his career for only seven times and he must have played like that because of some problems too. Vinicius is effective only when he plays as a winger. He has played like this in 189 matches so far. He has scored 46 goals and made 45 assists. I don't expect Real Madrid to ruin his performance by making him play as a striker any time. As a result, I still expect Mbappe to be transferred later on.

I think there is likely to be a repeat of what happened a few months back. They had to get rid of Lionel Messi, he was the best player in Barcelona, not to mention the finest player in the world. And the way Barcelona is trying to handle the money situation I think reducing the salary of players is not going to work. Barcelona will have to let some players go again. I obviously hope that it doesn’t happen. However, the way Barcelona is trying to make so many costly transfers I don’t think there will be any other options if they continue spending their money like that.

I don't think any of us will understand what's in Joan Laporta's head. Barca are in fact in a period of financial crisis but their desire to buy more players in the transfer market really makes fans confused.

Barca's optimism stems from reports claiming the City star wants to play for Barcelona, however, the Premier League champions are likely to demand a fee in the region of £85 million which as a standalone deal, would prove challenging.

doesn't this make no sense for barca LOL

Vinicius is only 21 years old. He is still young and not experienced enough. Maybe he doesn't perform well in the winger position. But it is wrong to say that he will not be able to become a worthy striker in the future. If he is hardworking and if Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti cooperates with Vinicius properly, then Vinicius may become a worthy striker.

[bekti3]

He had already said that he agreed so that meant there was no deception there especially in this case it was obvious the decision was made by him.
But indeed I don't really understand why he agrees with this especially there are several clubs who want his services and even from a financial point of view it is clear that other clubs have better fans than Barcelona but I am quite surprised why he is back with Barcelona and is willing to take a pay cut.

Several big European clubs were interested in Dembele, but finally Dembele was willing to accept a new contract offer from Barcelona,
Dembele's salary will be cut by 40%. I think why Dembele did that, because other clubs also offered contracts that did not differ much
from what Barcelona offered, that's why Dembele is willing to accept the contract offer given by Barcelona. Moreover, with Dembele's
track record which is often injured, other clubs will also not dare to offer a large salary to Dembele. But I think Dembele's decision was
right by extending his contract with Barcelona, because since Xavi became Barcelona's main coach, Dembele could find his best game.
In addition, Dembele is one of Xavi's favorite players, so the possibility of Dembele playing as a starter is very large. But if Dembele moves
to another club, it's possible that Dembele won't be playing regularly.

I actually don't really know about the contracts offered by other clubs to him but indeed if what you say is true then actually it would still be better if he left the Camp Nou especially with their current condition.
On the other hand, he also seems to be aware that his performance over the past few seasons has not been very good, which has made him receive a cut in his salary because even if he leaves, the price will certainly drop considerably.

If he is hardworking and if Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti cooperates with Vinicius properly, then Vinicius may become a worthy striker.

Vinicius' main position is winger but it is still possible to switch to a centre-forward if he has the talent for it. Changing the position of players who have played well in one position will not be as easy as turning the palm of the hand and I think players will also find it difficult if they don't play in their best position. So far Vini is playing well on the wing, he's enjoying it and it's effective for Real Madrid. The coach doesn't need to put him in a new position while there are still the right players to be there.

I agree^^. He is good at wing and there is no need to just put him into striking. Its not like Madrid needs a striker urgently so there is no need to start experimenting with Vinicius now. Also Madrid does needs a good winger. There is't a proper effective winger after Vinicius. Hazard can play but he is out of form so right now Vinicius position is fixed.

Interestingly for Vini he can also be placed in attacking midfielder or second striker if Madrid really wants to rely on Benzema up front.
As for the Wings, actually there's not only Vini but Asensio is still there and can take advantage of Valverde too, which is indeed sometimes he is in that position when he is needed considering he also played very well there.
With the addition of Tchouameni in midfield it is clear it will make Vini's burden to be in the middle of the field a little distracted and continue to focus on the flanks to help attack.

I haven’t heard of Sevilla making big transfers. They did bring in a defender but they really need attacking players who are really adept at scoring goals. I don’t think they will be able to achieve any decent results in the next season. And about Barcelona, I don’t think it is about having that amount of money anymore. It is more like how much debt they will be accumulating if they spend that amount of money. They already owe a lot of money and the transfers which they are trying to make are not going to make things any better as well. They should really stay under the radar for a while.

In my opinion, Barcelona have done various ways to maintain their finances and one of them is a reduction in player salaries. but on the one hand, reducing player salaries is not a good thing because it can have a negative impact on player contributions. Barcelona also want to let go of some of their star players in the transfer market this summer like De Jong, but the star wants to stay and is willing to take a pay cut for next season. In fact, if he really wanted to leave, Barcelona would definitely get a lot of money from the sale of De Jong.

[Slow death]

As a result, I still expect Mbappe to be transferred later on.

as a real madrid fan i would not be happy with real madrid going back to chasing Mbappe. From what I could see Mbappe thinks he's very important and he started to dictate the rules at PSG and I'm glad he didn't go to real madrid because real madrid would bow to him. that would be humiliating for us, as we've had many players who are legendary players. Real Madrid don't need Mbappe. they have to look for other players except Mbappe

In my opinion, Barcelona have done various ways to maintain their finances and one of them is a reduction in player salaries.

Barcelona sank because of the paranoia that they need to have young players, this led to their disgrace and it seems to me that they still haven't changed their way of thinking

Sevilla didn't make any interesting signing imo. They got Marcao after letting Diego Carlos move to Aston Villa. They might bring another center back if Kounde leaves to Chelsea or City.
For Martial, he failed to adapt in Sevilla and returned back to ManU. So far Sevilla doesn't look better than the previous season, unless some players perform better, it will be a hard season for them.

[Pokapoka124]

Real Madrid  have been outstanding for quite some years now, retaining dominance in the Champions league, all thanks to the quality players in the squad. With some of these players  like Modric, Casemiro, Kroos and Bale and Marcelo leaving, new young players have to come in as replacements for these players. So far they already got replacement for their outstanding midfield trio who were the engine room of the team. The future looks secured already for them with the likes of Camavinga, Valverde, Tchouameni, Rodrygo and Vinicius.
