La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[SatoPrincess]

Benzema performs well when the time comes. I think he's a big game player. We see this in the rematches of UCL matches last year, which were very exciting. We wouldn't be wrong if we say they won the UCL thanks to Benzema. Benzema brought a lot to Real Madrid. It's not fair to criticize him unfairly by missing a penalty. I believe it will gradually perform better.

Taking a penalty is not as easy as it looks because after all the penalty taker has a big enough burden on his shoulders, I also don't think Benzema was the reason for madrid failure to score full points against Osasuna, as a professional footballer he gave everything he could in that match despite just recovering from injured but he has tried his best to make Madrid win, it is not appropriate for Madrid fans to blame Benzema just because of one failure because after all if Benzema is at 100%  performance of course we cannot doubt his ability in terms of scoring goals.

It is not something common to see Benzema missing goals the way he did in the game the weekend, obviously luck wasn't on his side but I'm not so worried because I'm sure this doesn't mean their form have dropped and they will come even stronger in the next game to get all three points. I believe this draw will only make them go for a win in the next game.

Benzema missed the penalty, as a result of which Real Madrid could not achieve 3 points. But Real Madrid won a lot of matches because of Benzema.

Strange that he hit the ball against the crossbar. He is normally very very good of hitting a goal from 11 metres. The first time that Real Madrid does not win and directly overtaken by Barcelona. When I look at the last 10 games, 9 won and that too in the Champions League. That shows how strong Real is at the moment and which team is now even stronger in the league: Barcelona. But Barcelona is not as good as Real Madrid in the Champions League. Lost vs. Bayern and a draw against Manchester City.

Benzema missed the penalty, as a result of which Real Madrid could not achieve 3 points. But Real Madrid won a lot of matches because of Benzema. And it is only on Benzema's performance that Real Madrid has been able to continue their excellent performance in the last two seasons. Benzema's contribution to Real Madrid's performance is undeniable. And so even though Benzema missed the penalty, we Whites fans took it pretty easy.

But Benzema is not playing as well as expected this season. Benzema scored only 3 goals in 5 matches. On the other hand, Lewandowski scored 9 goals in 7 matches. We expect better performance from an experienced player like Benzema.

although Benzema missed a penalty in today's match, it was not fatal. Madrid has fought hard, many chances were not scored, I have to admit that osasuna is very lucky. currently barca and madrid have the same points and madrid only lost on goal difference to barca, this makes the competition between the two in la Liga even more interesting until the el clasico occurs.

Benzema missed the penalty, as a result of which Real Madrid could not achieve 3 points.

Failing to execute the penalty is not only Karim Benzema. Almost all players have also experienced failure to execute a penalty.
But I saw in the match against Osasuna, Real Madrid did not perform better than the previous game. Real Madrid also failed to capitalize on 12 minutes of normal time after D. Garcia was shown a red card.

Football is very unpredictable most times, that is why when I lose bet I'll just smile and move on. Who could ever imagined that Ossasuna will hold a complete Real Madrid squad to a full time draw, even in their current for.
Benzema was unable to score a penalty kick, which I don't find to be alot of problem because anyone can miss a pk. But the problem involved is that Benzema now has a serious rival in Lewandowski and such golden opportunities shouldn't be wasted anymoe

it's very funny when you see people mocking Benzema just because of a small accident, after all every football player must have missed a penalty kick

Benzema vs Lewandowski became a hot topic to discuss, due to the injury that occurred to Benzema, he missed several matches that Madrid did so he did not have the opportunity to score goals. last season Benzema may have been the top scorer in La Liga but this season it looks like he has to give in to Lewandowski

[Piesel]

The thing is thank goodness real Madrid have not sold Benzema just as other big clubs sold some of their good players and now they are  lacking behind some of them sold the stickers instead of buying an additional have with your player.

Most of their managers don't know what the condition is but all the same Real Madrid may end up being the champion league winner.

There is no meaning in selling Benzema for Real Madrid unless they find a better alternative to him. He is still a very important part of the team as well now. He has just returned from an injury so maybe he needs some time to have his usual performance back. But when he does he would still continue on his productivity about goals to make his team get stronger again. They will need him in the La Liga and Champions League both to be able to fight for titles more seriously.

He is 34 years old and real madrid would just happy to keep him as in case he continue perform well .. they would be grateful , if he start slows and perform average then they would just understand that his career are finished , win win solutions though.

Ine thing that i cannot understand is that teal madrid have not looking for the replacement yet so far.

Selling Benzema is not a solution, it will give Real Madrid another problem because they have lost an important player at Real Madrid. When you see Benzema's movement is really reduced because he still feels pain when he gets this injury, the recovery process is not as easy as you think, At least Benzema still needs time to go through the recovery process in order to return to perfection.

Since Ronaldo left Real Madrid, Benzema has become the most reliable player for Real Madrid up front. Even Benzema managed to reach his peak
in the previous season where Benzema's contribution was very large by scoring many important goals for Real Madrid. Finally the previous season
Real Madrid won the La Liga trophy and also the Champions League trophy. Seeing Benzema's enormous contribution to Real Madrid, I believe
Real Madrid will not sell Benzema, even Real Madrid management is likely to keep Benzema at Real Madrid until retirement.

What Real Madrid's management did was not to sell Benzema, but they should immediately prepare a replacement for Benzema, who is no longer young.
Actually, Real Madrid have been eyeing Mbappe and Haaland for a long time to replace Benzema on the front lines, but unfortunately both failed to get.
I believe Real Madrid in the summer transfer market next year will buy a striker who is prepared to replace Benzema. But this season Real Madrid will
still rely on Benzema as a centre-forward, but having just recovered from injury, then Benzema must take time to slowly return to his best form and
return to being productive in scoring goals again. I agree with you, Real Madrid still need Benzema's contribution to win trophies this season.

i agree, i could almost say that Benzema single handedly got them La Liga and Champions League last year, things could have been way different if he wasn't playing, and so far they don't have a player that can replace him as a striker, they can't let him go yet, if i was a manager i would still fight to keep him in the team unless his performance decreases drastically.

[Prince Malik]

Real Madrid must have drawn with Osasuna because they have to play Shakhtar in the Champions League soon. Although I think Real Madrid will have no problem winning this game, they decided to keep their strengths early on. Osasuna were just lucky that they were able to score.

It's still a loss because with this result now they have to overtake Barcelona and actually I expected more from them in this match but indeed they couldn't maximize their advantage in number of players and the quality of their players.
Shakhtar in the Champions League can't actually be used as an excuse because they can still win with their condition. this is a defeat in my opinion even though the result is a draw.

Yes I agree with you, I see it as a defeat too, just like Barcelona first match and their first draw, it was a loss too, when the match is played home and the odds are really low for the team to win, when they don't, they lost in my eyes, it is more entertaining now that they have the same amount of points, the Classico would be awesome.

Actually, Karim Benzema is applying and will most likely get the golden ball this year, and you want to replace him. Such players are a piece product and it is quite difficult to just take them and replace them, even for such a famous rich club as Real Madrid. As we can see, of the comparable and promising players, Killian Mbappe has so far decided to stay and continue his career at Paris Saint-Germain, and Erling Haaland still preferred the Premier League and Manchester City from all places to continue his future career. However, judging by his words and the words of his father, the player is not fixated on the idea of playing until the end of his career in England and wants to try himself in other championships, and Florentino Perez recently did not seem to rule out the possibility of Mbappe coming in the future. Real Madrid would certainly like to have a player to replace Benzema, but this is still very, very problematic.

At this point, we all know Real Madrid is looking for a replacement for Benzema. But I think there still cannot decide who will be the best replacement. Obviously, it is going to be a little problematic. The only 2 credible options seem to be Haaland and mbappe. But when we think about mbappe running after money and Haaland just going to Manchester city, we have to think that real Madrid will have to wait at least one or two years before being able to bring either one of them in the squad.

Agree. Why does Real Madrid need to sell Benzema when Real Madrid is in a crisis of quality CF?
The right way is to sign a new quality CF like Mbappe, or another top CF. Of course, Real Madrid needs a sucessor of Benzema because he is getting old. But it is not necessary to hurry selling him since he still played well. However, his current injury is a warning for Real Madrid to sign a new CF in January 2023 transfer window.

Did Benzema waste the opportunity? For me, he didn't because he made attempt to score the penalty. And the penalty was well taken, he was just unlucky. Benzema has made his mark in La Liga, maybe it is Lewandowski's time to reign. Injuries or other health issues are unforeseen occurrences and might not be controlled. An injury can totally disrupt the performance of a player, hence comparing players' performance might not be ideal.

All this agitation to sell Benzema is erupting just because of his performance in one match. A player that has given so much to the club would be sold because he missed a penalty and underperformed in one match. He is just recovering from an injury and needs time to get his rhythm. But it is very necessary to get a young replacement for Benzema. Everybody is recommending Haaland or Mbappe, but an unpopular stricker somewhere can be bought by the club and mentored by Benzema.

Honestly they have to enjoy the services of Karim Benzema why they wait for a replacement. The replacement won’t be now or in a year or two. The targeted players as Benzema's replacement are still on contract and are playing well in their respective teams so I expect Real Madrid to stick to the experience Benzema offers because it’s one of the reasons their young forwards are developing very fast. He might be 34 years old but he still has a lot to offer for this Real Madrid team.

Real madrid still needs the services of Karim Benzema after all he's one top striker in the club and his presence yields them more goals in their games. Currently, real Madrid don't have an active nine more satisfiable like Benzema, but hazard can still do better for the club and he have alot to offer for the team. Benzema going through injury stage will slow down his performance in the league but hopefully he will bounced back to his best form.

that would not be a good thing. I do agree with your opinion. It's not always selling a player that will become a solution. Benzema has been giving lots of contribution. Im sure that he was feeling so sick with his injury. I didn't expect him to give all of his best performance. Im sure that real madrid fans known so well about that. Im sure that if this gonna be a bad thing for benzema but that's not a problem at all. I think that he needs to adapt with his recovery. It takes the time. Blaming him must become a mistake.
