Well, there are times when it makes sense to go into debt. Most people take out a mortgage to buy a house. Many companies use debt to finance investments as well, but the more indebted ones tend to have more problems.

It is one thing to go into debt for a relatively short period of time, for a small percentage of your income, and another to make a desperate gamble in order to save the disastrous situation you are in, mortgaging your future excessively.

As I said the only way this is going to work out for Barcelona is obviously if they absolutely triumph in everything, and I mean everything. They will have to win in La Liga and they will also have to win the Champions League Trophy. Moreover, they also have to win other things that are available to them so that they can at least get a part of the money back that they owe. I really don't think that was a wise idea but they have already done it so no point talking about it. I just hope they will be able to perform well. They did not start off well this season though, but I believe they will get better.

Real Madrid started better than Barcelona. However Barcelona's performance was still good actually. They just struggled about finishing up their attacks with a goal. Maybe it was a really bad luck. But we would find out about it by next week games. Real Madrid might have lost points too by the way because they had to make a comeback from a 1-0 disadvantage.

Yes, so far each team has had one match because there are some new players so they need more matches to gain cohesiveness

Real Madrid is still above Barcelona for now. With Real Madrid's composition so convincing, they are also made easier because they don't have to bother overhauling the game because most of them are players who have been in the team for a long time. While Barcelona of course must create harmony between players first.

Madrid has gone through a fairly perfect start in all competitions, although the majority still retained the squad last season but madrid was still able to maintain its consistency in winning, the cohesiveness and chemistry that had been closely intertwined between the players could of course be a strong reason for madrid current performance, but I think barcelona can also soon become a strong team if they can quickly solve their current problems, actually the many star players that are in barcelona won't be too difficult for Xavi to unite them in cohesiveness and also the style of play because basically the new players barcelona has a game that fits Xavi criteria.

Real Madrid did not make any changes to their squad. Because they are not interested in wasting money. They kept the squad unchanged from the previous season as well. And consistently performing well. If Rodrygo, Vinicius and Benzema are in form, Real Madrid will be favorites for the title again this season. As Vinicius became more experienced, his performance gradually improved. And so despite not making any changes to the squad, Real Madrid is still a strong team this season.

Yes, Real Madrid coach continue with his last season strategies to alert other teams that they are well prepared to keep the victory going in this season. Real Madrid players will like to do more in this season than last season, because their coach is seriously working to introduce new strategies that will make them more stronger, since many teams are well prepared to break the record to stop them not to achieve this season title. I don't think, Barcelona can withstand Real Madrid in this season, because they found it difficult to win their last match despite the new squads their management has brought in into the team in this season.

It's not a fact because we know Madrid always surprises in the transfer market but not for this season there are 2 reasons
not having enough money or not competing to get targeted players like Mbappe , overall Madrid squad is still strong but they have a weakness in defense While Barcelona is a ticking time bomb that can be great at times when players have found the right style of play.

[rahmad2nd]

with not many changes happening in the Real Madrid squad I think they can be more solid and it's true that with not many changes it will also be a weakness if the coach doesn't have a special strategy against opponents who can anticipate Real Madrid's game as usual, but I have no doubts about it. Real Madrid coach Ancelotti, in my opinion, a team that is already solid is better looking for chemistry, in contrast to Barcelona, which brings in a lot of new players and takes longer to adapt.

newcomers to the barcelona squad have been playing pretty solid since their pre-season game, it's just that they didn't get a goal in their first game against getafe. The inaugural match was not too favorable for Barcelona with a draw, but not so bad than accepting defeat. we can see in the match next week, barcelona will travel to real sociedad.

in contrast to real madrid, from the start madrid has had a solid squad, no wonder they still dominate in their inaugural match.
the transfer window is not closed yet, however, carlo ancelotti is not interested in joining this summer transfer window, i think ancelotti is quite optimistic about his squad.
Even so, La Liga has just begun, the battle has just begun in the race for the top of the standings.

its wrong to said Madrid did not have the money to sign players in this transfer window.
I might feel that Ancelloti still likes their current squad with the majority of its young players.
At the moment there are some vacancies and Ancelloti knows about it so they brought in Rudiger even on a free there as a replacement for Sergio whose role is still irreplaceable.
There is also Tcouameni who could be a pretty good asset for them in the future.

[Jody.Drummer]

that means buying lots of new players didn't mean these players can adapt with the situation easily. It needs a very hard time for people to aware if those new players are also need more time. Barcelona is wanna buying more player and i saw that if some rumour appeared about that. I think that from two match rotations already made by the perfect rotation and strategy has not yet happened.

Not yet adapted perfectly in my opinion, because if you look at the match, their new players have not been able to contribute, plus Barcelona's current condition is faced with various financial problems, there are several players they have who have not finished with salary issues, so the impact on the club is quite visible, Xavi required hard work for now, a lot of rights that must be addressed, from defenders to strikers they have, and it will probably be difficult in the near future all of that can be overcome

It becomes very natural because indeed they have only played a few games with Barcelona so it is quite natural that they need more adaptation.
But indeed this salary issue is still something that is difficult for me because regardless of anything, it is clear that they will definitely have problems in this case sooner or later because it is impossible for players to stay silent after several months of not getting a salary.

I don't think, Barcelona can withstand Real Madrid in this season, because they found it difficult to win their last match despite the new squads their management has brought in into the team in this season.

In this case, Ancelloti has stressed that they will maximize their current squad by making large rotations in their players.
And that happened after watching their match because indeed what he said in his statement was really carried out because indeed we saw some rotations for their young players especially for their midfield which made this even though it was still not very effective for goal productivity but their performance was still very good .

Compared to other La Liga clubs, Real Madrid can be said to be quite passive in the transfer market this summer, Real Madrid only recruited Antonio Rudiger and Aurelien Tchouameni to the Santiago Bernabeu.
Ancelotti has handled Real Madrid very well and he is an important part in Madrid success, Ancelotti is very aware of the condition of the squad they have at the moment. Real Madrid started the new season with great enthusiasm, Ancelotti still believes in the quality of the players they currently have, so there is no need to spend too much money to bring in new players.

While Barcelona are still trying to find his best form, Xavi will continue to evaluate his squad to get the Rhythm as desired. Barcelona will not repeat the same mistake in the second jornada, he will show the real Barcelona in the next match.

Ancelloti is a coach who already has a wealth of experience in coaching players so he will do the best for the team and also carry out the strategy he has said to keep the team on a very strong path this season. Because Ancelloti wants the cooperation of the players in every game it must be there so that the team can get a win and also challenge for the title again this season.

Carlo Ancelotti is a very experienced coach. He knows his team's weaknesses very well. Last season Carlo Ancelotti won the Champions League and La Liga titles, relying solely on Benzema's performances. We have seen Carlo Ancelotti's different match tactics in almost every Champions League match. Carlo Ancelotti's target will be to win the title next season.

You are saying something obvious, definitely to +1 for your signature campaign.
You are making a comparison between a stable team that won everything last season and a team that is trying to rebuild itself, it seems so obvious to me that it is almost trivial.

No wonder when Real Madrid is still a club that continues to be consistent in every performance. It will not be balanced when compared to Barcelona which has just started from an alarming zone. Last season Madrid was in good condition and performed brilliantly, Barcelona made changes in the middle of the La Liga season to succeed in second place in the standings. Currently, Barcelona has not fully performed consistently, there is still instability in terms of players and finances. So I wouldn't be too surprised to hear that Real Madrid is always one step ahead of Barcelona.

After all, Real Madrid did not make many changes in the squad so their chemistry is still well maintained. Unlike Barcelona, I think changes always happen in the team. so they still have to adapt to understand each other, at least these factors will certainly affect their performance in the near future. But as time goes on, I firmly believe that Barcelona will remain a strong contender in the title race this season.

If we compare the strength of squads in La Liga, I would say Barcelona's squad is stronger than Real Madrid's. But the Real Madrid squad has been playing together for a long time. The bond between them is excellent. But Barcelona's new players need some time to adapt to the team. On the other hand, Atletico Madrid's performance seems quite good. All in all, I think this season's title fight will be quite intense.

Real Madrid increasingly have a very good team because they can work as a team well and can create a very strong bond because on the field that is what is needed to support each other because otherwise it will be difficult to beat the enemy, Barcelona does have a lot of new team members but not necessarily able to provide good teamwork because indeed they are people who do not have a special relationship with several other teams so maybe some miscommunication will occur when in the field.

Not only does Real Madrid have a good team, they have gotten themselves quality bench players also that can impact a game 100%, while offloading below par players such as isco, jovic etc. When you watch Real Madrid play, you see kroos, casemiro, modric & valverde; when you see their bench options; you see Camavinga, Rodrigo, Tchoemani. The Real Madrid has effectively prepared for the future and also playing good football, competing on all fronts.  Tipping Real Madrid for another la liga title this season

[naira]

If we compare the strength of squads in La Liga, I would say Barcelona's squad is stronger than Real Madrid's. But the Real Madrid squad has been playing together for a long time. The bond between them is excellent. But Barcelona's new players need some time to adapt to the team. On the other hand, Atletico Madrid's performance seems quite good. All in all, I think this season's title fight will be quite intense.

Just like last season, Atletico Madrid always stole positions from Barcelona, they even had time to compete with Sevilla at that time. But this time the difference is that Atletico Madrid is trying to take seats early and aggressively so I agree that the competition will be tougher. Especially Barcelona and Madrid who are the clubs we most want to see the difference after a total overhaul of Barcelona top brass, they are also willing to spend their pocket money just to encourage this club to have the expected formation. All indicate that Barcelona has such a high target.

[Marvell1]

Morata is the most interesting player to me so far. We don't see him scoring regularly normally so I wonder how much he can keep this up. Atletico Madrid wanted to keep him for this season and they must be very contented with this performance. Atletico Madrid were successful about keeping Getafe away from having shots on target also.

Sure, he is an interesting player. He scored 2 goals in the first match in La Liga this season, now he becomes one of the most productive strikers in La Liga. Although it is too early to judge Morata to have a good season with Atletico Madrid, scoring 2 goals in the first match indicates he finds his best again in scoring. I don't know what you mean by scoring regularly or normally, I think he scores as other strikers do. I really appreciate his performance yesterday since it ensures us that he is still one of the top strikers in the world.

Álvaro Morata has actually never been the main attacker of any team till now actually. He has always been the second striker of every major team, until now. It is good to see him scoring two goals. This was a rather easy match in my opinion. I am going to judge him when he will be facing a better and stronger team. But this is obviously a good start. Will they be able to be a competitor for the La Liga title as well? Or will they just raise hope and not be able to deliver?
