La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[poldanmig]

Yes, I think Madrid need a pure striker. Not like Mbappe. I also disagree with the hefty cost of bringing him in. I think with the money to buy mbappe Madrid can buy a lot of player options. They will lose some players because of the age that is not young. So Anceloti had to think about that.
I didn't expect Madrid to get as bad history as Barcelona. They failed to regenerate and experienced bad things in one season. Although I'm sure Brcelona has financial problems while Madrid are not.

it seems that next year's transfer market will be very hot, real madrid is reportedly eyeing darwin nunez for long-term investment to replace benzema, I think that Nunez is not the best candidate to replace benzema, because his performance at liverpool is far from satisfactory. but we'll see what decision Ancelotti will make, he is the coach who has the best vision for a potential candidate to replace benzema.

When Manchester City bought Haalaand and Liverpool also bought Nunez, at that time many predicted that the two of them would become rivals in the top score competition but in fact Haalaand was able to leave Nunez far enough, I don't want to say that Nunez was a failed purchase for Liverpool but if you look at his performance it is we can judge that Liverpool has wasted a lot of money to bring in Nunez, Nunez has been projected to replace Mane but until now Nunez has not been able to do it,  so I think if Madrid bring in Nunez it will only be a risky gamble, It is better for Madrid to look for other players who are talented as a successor to Benzema rather than spending money to buy Nunez from Liverpool.

I think I will say no to Darwin Nunez, because as we can see now his performances have not been satisfactory for his team or for his country. Better for Real Madrid to make a transfer for another player who is more trustworthy than Darwin Nunez. Their needs are urgent at the moment with Benzema being used infrequently, so they need players who can quickly adapt to the team. Because one of Nunez's own problems was that he couldn't adapt quickly, which caused him to be hot late in his new team. I'm afraid the same thing will happen if Real Madrid signs him.

It surprises me that the rumors about the transition of Mbappe to Real Madrid are again intensifying. He performs well in the World Cup and he is a good player, but in my opinion he already overstepped the bounds when he played his dirty game trading between PSG and Real so I would be happy if Real just ignored this player. He is too expensive and is too risky a purchase. He is not worth his money.

I think those rumors ended last season after Kylian Mbappe rejected Real Madrid's offer and agreed to a contract extension with Paris Saint Germain. Or is there an offer for the second time?
Besides, Real Madrid doesn't seem to need it because with the combination of Benzema, Rodrygo and Vinicius Junior, they successfully won several titles last season, and this season Real Madird still looks confident with their main squad.

Real Madrid are confident with their current squad. But they now need to find a suitable replacement for Benzema. This is why they will be looking to bring in a talented young striker this season. And so it would not be surprising if Real Madrid became interested in Mbappe this season as well. Their squad is strong, but they need another talented striker.
Benzema is also injured. His fitness is deteriorating. Also Rodry and Vini are talented no doubt, but they are not experienced enough. It is difficult to do well in serious matches without experienced players.

Yes, I agree with some of the considerations you said.
But if experience is the basis and the choice is Kylian Mbappe, how is Mbappe's experience different from that of Vinícius and Rodrygo? they are talented young players with experience of playing no more than 3 leagues each
The difference between these three players is quality, but for experience I think the three young players still lack experience.

Mbappe is only 23 years young player. But he has already won the World Cup. Don't you think being with the World Cup-winning squad is an experience? Also, if we compare the performances of Vini and Rodrygo with Mbappe in the World Cup this year, you will see that Mbappe is much ahead. Mbappe is now the most important player in the France squad. And so even though the age gap between Vini and Rodrygo is not much, I think Mbappe is more experienced. However, Mbappe will lag behind when compared to Benzema or Messi.

[herurist]

He may not be able to adapt to Real Madrid the way Haaland adapted to Manchester City. Haaland has an offer from Real Madrid but I don't think he should accept it. If he stays at Manchester City I believe his career will be greatly enhanced.

This is still just speculation but I also don't think Haaland can become a Madrid player in the future, of course City won't allow that. This is Haaland's first season at City and his performance has been very good there so it is very unlikely that City will let this player go, especially since they still don't have a good striker who can replace Haaland. I don't think neither Haaland nor Mbappe will be at Madrid in any case it's still impossible for me to transfer at this time.

[hahay]

I don't think Real Madrid will ever sign Mbappe, considering that he previously turned down Real Madrid's offers and preferred money over a brilliant career with Real Madrid. Mbappe is a genius but also arrogant, we know he is just a new kid in football and he doesn't have to have bad traits if he wants to have a lot of titles.

Everything is possible. we all know, Mbappe's attitude and ego is very high. he is a young player, it's normal that his ego is often a problem. Despite his attitude and ego, all football players know that he is a great and talented young player. for the next one or two seasons, it seems unlikely that Mbappe will play for El Real, besides that his contract is still long with PSG, Florentino has said he is no longer interested in Mbappe.

however, it is possible that in the next few seasons, Mbappe could play for Real Madrid. because after all he is a young talent who still has a good career going forward, especially if he plays for Real Madrid. But I don't think Madrid will sign him any time soon. after all, after all, Madrid still has Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo and maybe several other young players who are being targeted by Madrid in the upcoming January transfer window, one of which is young boy Endrick Felipe.

Maybe some days in the near future Kylian Mbappe will forcefully leave PSG out of frustration because he will never win the Champions League not even to talk of the Ballon d'or at French league. Real Madrid are not even focused on his arrival anymore there's this young Brazilian everyone has been chasing they are currently into the player also. If you take good look at Hazard, he has dropped big form since he left Chelsea, Real Madrid should start planning life without him because he will never get better than this.

They are professional teams and of course it will be easy for them to recover from the pain of having been rejected before, so it is still very possible for Mbappe to leave PSG whether it be Real Madrid or another team at any time. Because now rich teams can buy players they like, regardless of the contracts that are still in their old clubs because rich teams can pay for it.
There are many other teams that are richer than PSG, so it is very possible for other rich teams that exist to be able to pay Mbappe more than what he received at PSG.

The problem of money in this era is no longer a problem for big teams, because if they want to achieve many achievements and the players they recruit have the same target. Then of course they will be able to work together well, and I personally have no doubts about that.
About selfishness or arrogance, I think all players also have this factor. But indeed, other players have different levels of selfishness and arrogance because maybe they are also aware of the abilities they have. But for Mbappe with great potential in him, it is only natural that Mbappe has higher selfishness.

I have no problem with Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo, but Real Madrid still need a pure striker, while the two players are still suitable to play in the winger position. Moreover, Benzema is no longer young, therefore Readl Madrid must buy new players in the next season's transfer market, otherwise they will find it difficult to adapt to a big team that has a great striker. Moreover, next year they have to compete in La Liga and the Champions League, it will definitely be difficult if you still rely on Benzema.

Vini and Rodrygo are very talented players. But they are still young. We do not get proper good performance from them due to lack of sufficient experience. Often they miss easy opportunities. If they miss an easy chance or make a mistake in an important match, it becomes difficult to win the match. And so Madrid needs a perfect experienced finisher. They need to find a replacement for Benzema. Benzema's fitness is not good. Also, Ancelotti needs to make his plans now if he wants to keep the team stable for the future. And so it is important to add an experienced striker to Madrid's squad either this season or next

Real Madrid has a problem in attack which until now has not found a player who can replace Benzema. Because Benzema's position is so crucial that it must be filled by players who have good abilities, such as an instinct for scoring goals, being smart in finding good positions, quick in making decisions and others. I agree that Vini and Rodrygo are good players but can't replace the positions they've left now. In the upcoming transfer window they have to really hunt for players.

[Velvet78]

Nothing has changed about Atletico Madrid in a positive way. This season is even worse for them. I wonder what the board are thinking about Atletico Madrid's current condition now. We have a World Cup break maybe but this will be an important issue after it ends. They must be expecting Simeone to find a way to make this team better than this.

Simeone needs to be ready for some changes as well because the current tactics don't work much as it seems. They don't need to make many transfers now because the squad quality is well enough for successes. It is all about improving the performance by trying something new.

Their performance is still in a bad stage during these 2 seasons. I agree with what you say because indeed they are still the same as before and have not even changed, just like the road in its current place. But there are interesting things about Atletico because they continue to trust Simeone with all his arrogance, who still feels that he can still improve Atletico's performance this season.

[Z-tight]

I don't think real madrid have to hunt for players in January, they have a complete team, the only problem they are having is that Benzema is having so many injuries that is keeping him out of the game, they have players that can replace him in the striking position but those players are not orthodox strikers, what real madrid have to do is manage Benzema's situation until the season is over, and then at the end of the season they should look for an orthodox striker that will partner Benzema until he leaves the club or retires. Rumors have it that they are interested in Victor Osimhen, a bid for him at the end of the season would be good, and if the club can work with Napoli and make it happen then they would have a young and talented striker in their hands for many years to come.

[sana54210]

Mbappe is a player who has almost the same characteristics as Ronaldo who cannot control his emotions properly, Real Madrid must look for other players who have more potential and can work with teams well so as not to make Real Madrid lose money because what Real Madrid needs is not players who get emotional easily but smart to control it and stay calm.

I don't think Real Madrid will ever sign Mbappe, considering that he previously turned down Real Madrid's offers and preferred money over a brilliant career with Real Madrid. Mbappe is a genius but also arrogant, we know he is just a new kid in football and he doesn't have to have bad traits if he wants to have a lot of titles.

I know that he preferred money, but people grow and he could end up regretting that decision and in that case he could tell his team to sell him. That way they would get rid of that huge loyalty bonus that he got, and instead of paying him, they would be getting paid for him. Specially if they win UCL this year it would be a lot easier to sell him for sure.

Because, they already got a great win out of him, got league titles plenty of times and they would also make a profit on him as well. Plus he won't be sold for 50 million or something, he is at least a 200 million type of guy, they could use that money to get another superstar level player, and that would really help them grow big.

[Rockstarguy]

He may not be able to adapt to Real Madrid the way Haaland adapted to Manchester City. Haaland has an offer from Real Madrid but I don't think he should accept it. If he stays at Manchester City I believe his career will be greatly enhanced.

I don't think this is the time for Haaland to leave Manchester City for another club because sometime ago in an interview when HAALAND’s dad revealed that Haaland will be play for every club two years before he can go for another club. Haaland in Manchester city is not up to a season,  I think he still has more time to play for Manchester City before going to another league. I think Haaland is enjoying his stay in Manchester city and would like to spend more than a season in Manchester city.

Anceloti has said it before that he is not going to sign any player and has insisted on it. Except he will have to change his mind following Benzema's injury. I don't know how reliable the news about Madrid going for Victor Oshimen is because i can't see any information on the web. But Oshimen is not a bad lineup for Madrid the question should be if Anceloti will want to work with him.

I think Haaland is enjoying his stay in Manchester city and would like to spend more than a season in Manchester city.

This is only his first season in the EPL and with his condition being very good there is actually no reason for him to leave I think especially in this case Manchester City will definitely hold back and with his contract still quite long it is clear that this is still very profitable for Manchester City.
I think this is just a rumor that has been raised because in any case it is very difficult to get him to leave now even if he is in demand from a big club like Madrid.

Therefore, Real Madrid should be able to get better players than Mbappe. $200 million is a lot of money for just 1 player. Better to have the money to buy good young players because Real Madrid often monitors young talents in various Europe. It seems they have their eye on some interesting players in this world cup.

I don't know how reliable the news about Madrid going for Victor Oshimen is because i can't see any information on the web. But Oshimen is not a bad lineup for Madrid the question should be if Anceloti will want to work with him.

Carlo Ancelotti Maybe wants to keep his new players a secret so at this time he says he doesn't want to add new players but rumors are already circulating it is very clear that Real Madrid needs additional players to complete its deficiencies and when the transfer market opens then Carlo Ancelotti will move quickly to buy new players with the needs required.

[terrorJR]

This season his feet have always been in trouble and he has always spent more time in the dugout than on the pitch. It's obviously not very good even though his eye for goal is still great but with his recurring injury condition it's clear this is a problem because he can't be 100 per cent fit which makes it a problem for Madrid in the end too.
It is not surprising then that in their later transfers they are looking for several strikers for Alternatives when Benzema is unable to play in Madrid.

Benzema has been absent from several important matches this season. However, Madrid managed to keep their performance stable because their coach Ancelotti is very experienced. Ancelotti's match strategy is why Madrid's performance is stable. But if you want to do well in the Champions League, you can't just rely on youngsters Vini and Rodrygo. They definitely need an experienced striker. And so Ancelotti will keep one more striker in the team in addition to Benzema. Even if a talented striker is brought into the team, the new striker needs time to adapt to the team. No player can adapt to the team suddenly.

Even though it's like that, they are still very difficult, not especially for several matches in La Liga which should be won, but when there are no strikers with good instincts to score goals, it becomes a little difficult and they have to be willing to be temporarily displaced by Barcelona.
Now is the right time to look for other alternatives and Ancelotti cannot force Benzema to continue in his current condition even though he still can but the injury to his leg can recur again and again.

[KTChampions]

If we talk about a super expensive purchase that would be good for Real Madrid, then I would choose Haaland. You can watch him until the end of the season (for his susceptibility to injuries - there is a danger that he has an increased one) and if everything is fine, then prepare the transition. Haaland looks like a real professional, I think he would suit Real Madrid in all respects.

Erling Haaland does look fit to be a Real Madrid player, but I don't think Manchester City will let him go because they have signed Erling Haaland until 2027. That means Manchester City want to keep this player at the Etihad for a long time. Especially with his current impressive performance, Manchester City will be even more convincing to defend him.
They made a successful transfer, how could they waste a player who has a very bright future to lead his team to success in the future.

The details of his contract are unknown and more recently there were rumors that under the contract, starting from either the 23rd or the 24th year, the option to buy out his contract could be activated and Real Madrid would be able to buy him even against the will of City. In any case, everything is real if the three parties come to an agreement and I think moving to Real Madrid for Haaland to top 1 position will be an easy decision. Before that, he had doubts because it was assumed that Mbappe would be in Real Madrid and Haaland did not want such competition.

The new Laliga matches will start in three to four weeks
The meet between Girona and Rayo will be the opening match for a new week after the Laliga break. With Rayo Vallecano's situation
who have lost their standings in the last few week have the potential to push Rayo into the favorites to win the match
Even though the game is still a few weeks away, Rayo's statistics are much more convincing after half a season
