La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Luzin]

The pressure on Cristiano Ronaldo at the moment is too high so many decisions to make. I think all he wants is have a chance to play in the UCL next season and from all indication he is willing to move to any club that can give him that opportunity. If Ronaldo moves to laliga that isn't much of an issue i just hope united releases him so it becomes official. Ronaldo needs to get settled early enough so he can focus ahead of the season.

But forcing himself to deserve to play in the UCL is like boasting and not respecting Man United as the owner of Ronaldo's current contract. He's too selfish for personal goals, I don't think that's good. He should have seen how he is, his age, his capacity as a player. He is not at the best age, moving to another club only adds to the list of clubs he has played for, does not guarantee a champion in the UCL.
If he can only play in the UCL, I think better to make Man United the EPL champion again and get a ticket to the UCL next season. Ronaldo's name will be better with that achievement. But indeed he is free to make decisions, we only have opinions based on our thoughts.

nothing official so far, but if Atletico signed Ronaldo we'll be up for a very exciting season, with Ronaldo playing against his former club real madrid and his rival Barcelona, Atletico Madrid fans will go from hating Ronaldo to praising him, at least la liga would be interesting again.

If there is no official news so far, then there is no need to make a little dream by saying Ronaldo is playing against his former club real madrid and rivals Barcelona, because that is just your own way of thinking that many people don't even think about, including me. I am more sure that Ronaldo will stay in the Premier League in the Manchester United squad for next season.

Yes I think so too, I believe more that he (Cristiano Ronaldo) will stay at Manchester United. Regarding rumors of his move to Atletico Madrid, it would be interesting if it actually happened. But again I say, that I doubt it.
Cristiano Ronaldo is now the center of attention because there is no certainty, only rumors are circulating and even then the truth is still being questioned.

It is impossible for Ronaldo to return to La Liga just to play for Atletico Madrid, he would never make a blunder like that. For many years Ronaldo has played for Real Madrid and has got everything he wanted there, suddenly he's wearing an Atletico jersey and going to play Real Madrid when the two teams meet, wouldn't that look really weird. So far, Atletico are very careful about spending their money to buy players, Atletico will not waste large amounts of money on players who are 37 years old. But if Ronaldo's status is on a free transfer, it could be that Atletico will try to bring him in.

I am not agreeing with you about this statement because everything is possible in this world even right now situation is very strange for Ronaldo nothing is officially coming about his future with most chances he will not be going anywhere but in case he is coming at Atlético Madrid then surely it's possible because he wants to play in Champions League which is not possible at Manchester United and if he wants to leave his current club for his desire then surely he can do if Atlético Madrid is also having desire about him.

With his this decision most chances there could be nothing wrong going to happen at Real Madrid camp because they are also currently champions of two events and still having some very good chances for staying at top with their current quality and performance but here most important how Ronaldo is going to react about this and is this official or just media masala.

Even if Depay stays at Barcelona, ​​he won't get a chance to play on the field. He will be on the bench for the entire season.

No chance for Depay in Barcelona with Xavi who has a solid position and very good support from Barcelona. Xavi did great work last season and with good support from most of people in Barcelona, he currently has big power there.

Xavi is doing good job with having some quality signings in recent time and with these all most chances Depay will be on bench if he is not going to choose about his future with having some good chance at Roma he can give his best which can bring a better future because with the having no chance for playing is surely not giving him any better future instead he tries to approach here which is beneficial for him even now they already have Dybala, and now they are going to choose from these two Belotti and Depay if I have to choose then surely I am going with Depay with his speed is amazing, and he could be much better player with good skills which can help all team.

After officially bringing several new players to Camp Nou, Xavi now freely install formations for next season. So far, Barcelona is very synonymous with the 4-3-3 formation, the presence of Lewandowski can give Xavi an option to change the desired formation. At certain times Xavi can use a 4-4-2 formation with Lewandowski and Aubameyang at the forefront.

What formation will Xavi use when starting the new season, will he continue to use the classic 4-3-3 formation or will Xavi gamble with a new formation.

Note: Azpilicueta, Kunde, Marcos Alonso and Bernardo Silva's status is still unclear, Barcelona are still in contact with some of these players, maybe some of them will be inaugurated by Barcelona soon.
While Depay is still unclear about his future with Barcelona, ​​it is reported that Tottenham are ready to pay €17 million for Depay.

[Avirunes]

De Jong currently at this point can't have both - to pay(*play*) for the club and take the usual wages.

Why do you think so? Are you suggesting Barcelona have the audacity to put him on the bench on principle and continue to pay him his full salary? I don't think so because it would be suicidal stupid. If De Jong has balls, then he will easily get both, he just have to refuse the moronic offers that the club's management makes him.

The reason why I think so is because there is some deferred wages that Barca still owes to De Jong. Yeah he can refuse and continue to play at the club but this deferred wages will keep getting on and on and there is no certainty when he will be paid in full. Now yeah, De Jong has every right to refuse and play out till his career but someday he has to think about those unpaid wages and I think Barca will drag this situation for a long time. Now he has United offer on the table and he will receive same or maybe better contract but at least he will be getting paid in full if he makes the move.

What Barca is doing is also not right and every player has right to decline such offers or take it. Just forcing a player by giving them option whether with wage reduction or to move is just not right.

No chance for Depay in Barcelona with Xavi who has a solid position and very good support from Barcelona. Xavi did great work last season and with good support from most of people in Barcelona, he currently has big power there.

Given that some great names are already in Barcelona right now there is no hope for Memphis who won't be able to compete even if they do a good job there.
There is no reason for him to stay in my opinion because as @laurenB7742 said, when he decides to stay he will forever be on the bench because it is very difficult with Lewandowski and Raphinha to break into the main squad.

These rumors may not be true. There is one thing, I think Cristiano Ronaldo will not be happy if he stays at Manchester United this season, so a different transfer would be better for his career and prestige. I would actually like to see him at Atlético Madrid. Lewandowski in Barcelona, Benzema in Real Madrid, Ronaldo in A. Madrid would be very excited, I was excited even thinking about it.

[harapan]

Joining another ide has been rejected more than once since speculations about him leaving Manchester United emerged joining a Spanish side is a no no,best option for him would have been Bayern Munich but having no plans for him made the whole situation useless. Bayern Munich doesn't want Ronaldo he will spend one more season at Man United.
The team are doing very well if he comes into the squad now he can score much much goals for the club. So don't expect him to leave also if he leaves finally Manchester United will miss him not for so long.
Barcelona are making advances for Azpilicueta of Chelsea. Barcelona and Azpilicueta must have agreed on it for some time it's now on the club Chelsea to let him leave.

I know that Ronaldo wants to leave, but it doesn't make sense to just leave to a club he would still be unhappy. I mean think about it, if he moves from a club he would be unhappy, to a club that he will be unhappy, isn't it better to stay in the old one that he was unhappy with? At least he knows there and he could try to change that, but the new one would be disappointment because he moved there to get happy and failed. He is acting as if this would solve all his problems, but it won't.

Only thing it would serve would be him scoring some more goals at UCL, which obviously he cares a ton, but makes no sense why he cares about it this much, he should care about just enjoy playing at this age.

Barcelona staff called the team paralysed with all the financial problems then you find them investing too much. They are right now €-77.50m but I think ManU will cover all of that soon by buying de Jong of course once Barca convince him to leave since he seems interested in Bayern and not ManU.

That's seems to risky and i don't really think de jong will cover all this debts, how do you think Manchester united could pay to recruit this player? I think in the best case they will spend 40 million or even less so the administration should react immediately

Don't underestimate how much ManU could offer for de Jong or any other player, they have the money but lacks the (new) titles and maybe a good coach as Manchester City.
Here is a text from an article I found,

Code:

It was reported last week that Man United have reached a full agreement with Barcelona to sign De Jong for €75m (£63.5m) plus add-ons, with the deal potentially rising to around €85m (£72m).

https://amp.sportsmole.co.uk/football/man-utd/transfer-talk/news/barcelona-refusing-to-pay-de-jong-gbp14point5m-in-fees_490470.html
There is many articles reporting the same offer that were published days ago. It is no secret, and it is up to de Jong to accept it or not since Barcelona doesn't have any intention to pay what they owe him after he accepted to reduce his salary previously and to get the reduced amount later...

Your hopes may be in vain because I think Ronaldo will stay at Manchester United and have no real intention of leaving. I can think of something positive from the arrival of Ten Hag as coach, it can be seen from the way they played during pre-season.

There is a new spirit in the Manchester United camp, so Ten Hag actually wants to prove that he deserves to be there right now. A number of wins are results that might be used as an reason for Manchester United can still improve its performance, so Ronaldo's move to A. Madrid is a hope that will actually be difficult to materialize.

The existence of Memphis Depay in Barcelona is still a big question mark, because with the arrival of Raphinha and Lewandowski,
Depay has no space at Barcelona. It's not surprising that Barcelona included Depay in their list of players to be sold in this summer's
transfer market. Even reportedly Barcelona are ready to sell Depay at a low price, Barcelona are ready to open a price of 20 million euros
for other clubs who want Depay. I think Depay should move to another club that can guarantee Depay plays regularly, because if Depay
were at Barcelona he would have spent a lot of time on the bench. If that's the case it's not good for Depay's future, and a bad decision
if Depay decides to stay at Barcelona.

It's not that I underestimate Depay's ability, the problem is that Depay has to compete with players who have big names, like Aubameyang
and Lewandowski. Where Xavi is definitely more trusting Aubameyang or Lewandowski to play as a center forward than Memphis Depay.
So there is no other choice for Depay but to leave Barcelona as soon as possible, we will see if in the near future there will be a club that shows
interest in Depay.

Ten Hag has said indeed he still really needs Ronaldo for next season, but Ronaldo has also shown his disappointment with the management of Manchester which does not seem to have the initiative to improve Manchester United's current performance, Manchester United's passiveness in the transfer market this season this raises the reason if ronaldo will leave and it is reinforced by the absence of ronaldo in the manchester united pre-season game some time ago, but ronaldo who still has 1 year remaining on his contract with manchester of course he must respect it and follow the all  decisions taken by manchester united later, now Atletico Madrid are reportedly starting to try to approach Ronaldo but I don't think he will accept the offer, but I think all possible could happen before the transfer window closes later, just like what happened with Lewandowski who finally moved to Barcelona after it seemed impossible.

I agree that Xavi is doing so well at Barcelona, the way he is building the team and transforming Barcelona to title contenders for the coming season is so shocking. We were previously made to believe Barcelona was having financial problems which was going to affect their transfer dealings but somehow they managed to get good players to the squad, now some players like Depay will have to leave the club if they don’t want to come on as substitute.

Lewandowski's situation to Barcelona is very different when it comes to the possibility of Ronaldo to A. Madrid. Ronaldo has an agreement with Real Madrid about which club he can't choose if he wants to return to Spain, I'm sure maybe one of them is Barcelona but it could be A. Madrid is also included in the deal proposal.

Maybe nothing is impossible, but Ronaldo and Manchester United's situation now is different and this shows that there is a good possibility to expect him to stay at Manchester United for at least one more season.

[1kodumtek7]

I also think that Depay wouldn't have much chance in the starting eleven anymore. He played as a centre-forward most of the time in the previous season. However Lewandowski is here now and it is too difficult for Depay to have so many chances in big tournaments especially. As a result it would be much better for him to leave the team before the transfer window ends. Tottenham are very interested in a deal so I expect Barcelona to benefit from this opportunity to sell him.

He has to move now because if he insists he will only be on the bench all season I think.
He will not get any place even if his respect is high.
With the small salary he has received and the lack of hours there is what has to be done for Depay there because when he leaves I think he will find something good again for his season.

Maybe nothing is impossible, but Ronaldo and Manchester United's situation now is different and this shows that there is a good possibility to expect him to stay at Manchester United for at least one more season.

There is no agreement, he left Real Madrid almost 4 years ago, he can play for any club he wants as long as they can afford him, Ronaldo has no loyalty to any club, he plays for himself alone. He's ready to take off, and he's willing to play anywhere other than Manchester United as long as they offer Champions League football.

A.Madrd had ruled out signing Ronaldo; currently, no club wants to sign him, forcing him to play for Manchester United until next summer.

Depay will not be leaving the club this summer,I think Xavi will integrate all of them and make them play together,Aubameyang and Lewandowski will be upfront,while I think Depay will be used as a winger next season because of the coming of Lewa.
Xavi is building a team that will be capable of challenging for silverware next season,and I think he has done some reasonable business this summer,bringing in Rafinha and the potential arrival of Lewandowski.Indeed the team will do wonders next season.
