La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Gakpo is currently associated with many top teams. Barcelona will probably like him too. What can we expect from Seville's 2nd half of the season? They are even more likely to be in the relegation spot than in European football, which is bizarre when you think about it. They still have enough time to repair the damage, but will they succeed? Their first half of the season was by no means incidental. I'm afraid it can continue like this and then you won't even end up in the first 10 teams.

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.

It's complete ten good year's with Diego Simeone as coach of Athletico Madrid, I have always said it's high time they part ways with him, yes he has won some trophies for the club, but I really think it's time he leaves.
Saying this will leave people asking who should be in line to replace Diego Simeone, I'll suggest they make contact with Thomas Tuchel who is currently vacant ans has no Job.

He's a good tactician with good good tactics both defensively and attacking wise, it's just that he gets a bit poor at player to coach management when a player doesn't go thr right way with him, I can recall some news at Paris Saint Germany before the sack.

I also started to think the same. Manager change might be the thing they really need now. Because Simeone doesn't seem like he will make substantial changes in his strategies. He is really not much different than Mourinho at the same time. You know Mourinho is also a stubborn manager about using the same old strategies wherever he goes to.

Atletico Madrid have the players fitting an attacking game actually. They just need a manager whose focus is on an attacking based game.

Cody Gakpo could be a good alternative, but I doubt his capacity because he is too young. However, it would not be wrong if Real Madrid made an offer for him because Gakpo is one of the talented young strikers who could be used as a long-term project for Los Blancos.

Cody Gakpo has been widely rumored to be joining Manchester United, but we'll see if Real Madrid can persuade him or it's just rumours. I'm not sure Real Madrid are interested in Cody Gakpo, he's not the type of player Real Madrid are looking for so the chances of him getting an offer are very low. Even if Real Madrid want to sign a new striker then I think they will try to find a better striker instead of Gakpo who currently plays for PSV Eindhoven.

The characteristics of Gakpo are very similar to Rodrygo, I don't think Real Madrid needs a player like him. What Real Madrid needs is a genuine striker like Lautaro Martinez or Halland. If they get a striker like that I think they will be unbeatable in La liga.

The problem is not just in the injuries but the players must think twice before making any decisions regarding transfers because one wrong step could waste their career, vini is suitable for real Madrid and he is playing regularly but Rodrigo should improve himself or transfer to another club where he can play regularly

I do not think so. Over the past few seasons, of course, we know that Rodrygo's game is getting more and more mature. I don't think he needs to go for that, especially with the current condition of Madrid, what he really needs right now is just to add more flying hours and sharpen his instincts. But the longer I actually feel he is a runner type of player so he is not really suitable to be used as a substitute for Benzema's targetman.

He will be a very good player if he can improve again. Rodrygo has improved a lot but I agree that he is not a player who waits in the box more, rather he is a player who thinks he can take the ball a lot. If he continues at Real Madrid I think he will get a lot of guidance from players who already have a lot of experience, like Modric, Kroos, Benzema and others. Over time he will become a mainstay player for Real Madrid.
Moreover, Real Madrid will think twice about releasing this potential player. At 21 years old, he still has a long way to go to show more mature qualities. His experience playing against the big clubs that Real Madrid has always faced will be very influential for his future.

That's right, with Rodrygo's current condition actually it's still going well as long as he's positioned in the right place.
But what is certain that must be done is when you look at this then of course there must be some adjustments and indeed a pure striker must be here. Benzema is there but now he is not in good condition. On the other hand, his age is now nearing the end at Real Madrid, so there needs to be a successor from now on.

[maju69]

I think Real Madrid will prefer to wait for the end of the season to make a transfer for the centre-forward position. They can already do a good job with the Benzema - Rodrygo duo in this time period. There is already a great example of this about them. They won the Champions League and La Liga titles both last season without signing a new striker.

But next summer I definitely expect a move by Real Madrid side. Maybe Kane or some other striker like him but I feel confident that they will go for transferring a top striker to strenghten their attacking line even more.

It will be too risky for Real Madrid if they are not quick to bring in a centre-forward to fill the void Banzema has often left. After all they had to move quickly and not stall for time when they discovered their weak point. The competition in La Liga is very tight right now they can't move very freely like they did last season. They have to realize that while they wait until the end of the season to sign new players it will probably make them regret it.

Real Madrid must immediately make a breakthrough in the January transfer market. If not then they will accept a greater risk. Benzema is completely unreliable due to frequent injuries. I am quite pessimistic if Ancelotti insists he does not want to bring in a striker. Not without reason, Los Blancos' performance in the last few matches has seen a drastic drop in both La Liga and the Champions League. This is a harsh warning for El Real.

Now do see how hard it is?
I don't see any good center forward of Benzema's caliber who will be available in the coming transfer window. The best time to buy is during the summer break.

Real Madrid needs a centre-forward but no one can say what Ancelotti is doing in preparation for the next transfer market by the summer. He might have the intent of building Rodrygo to a point he can be trusted enough to replace Benzema in that forward position. Real Madrid is big enough to know what will work for them in every season and for the various titles the play for. If Ancelotti believes he can work with what he has then we just sit and watch him drive the club to victory.

But the longer I actually feel he is a runner type of player so he is not really suitable to be used as a substitute for Benzema's targetman.

Rodrygo is still very young. If Real Madrid gives him the opportunity to contribute to his team, then it will provide good potential for Rodrygo because he can hone his skills and get even better and there is a possibility that he can replace Rodrygo if he can work well as a team.

Rodrygo in the last few seasons seems to have been trained to be a mainstay and this has been proven during the Ancelotti era, he was given more opportunities and was even able to replace Asensio, who was previously also very good in performance.
He only has one problem, namely that he has to do his best to keep his goal instinct sharp and this is really needed, especially when Benzema is currently in not very good condition.
On the other hand, this season Real Madrid has also been helped by the presence of several promising young players such as Vini, Rodrygo and Valverde in their squad because apart from having more potential these players will be able to continue to maintain the line of attack especially at a very young age.

The transfer window will just open in January, but yes, preparations for getting new players, of course, they have to consider it from now on in order to get targeted players without strong competition from other big clubs. However, some of Real Madrid's main players should have been replaced by younger players, because it would be bad if they only started looking for new players when so many key players were injured.
I don't know what kind of player is good to replace Benzema, but at least they also have certain assessments of players who have great potential in the future to be recruited.

Indeed, so far there has not been a player worthy of being matched with the quality of Benzema, but if Real Madrid get a player with great potential in the future. So of course, over time the player will be able to adapt to the team and will slowly find his best form at Real Madrid.
So, everything really needs a process and it's not about getting new players who have the same quality as Banzema, because Benzema himself doesn't quickly become great and at least there will always be a process that must be gone through with the many minutes played given.

But the longer I actually feel he is a runner type of player so he is not really suitable to be used as a substitute for Benzema's targetman.

The problem is even if rodrygo has been playing regularly after benzema got injured but he has not given the best result like what benzema did. i do know that if rodrygo plays so well with real madrid but that's not enough. Real madrid has been rumoured a few times still monitoring some potential striker to be a successor for benzema. It seems like that ancellotti is not feeling satisfied with the performance that already shown by rodrygo. that's why ancellotti was looking for a new potential striker that can perform the same like benzema.
harry kane has become the most potential striker to be bought by real madrid from totenham. Harry kane would become the best successor for benzema.

Yes, Real Madrid really need to sign in new talented strikers that will make the winning continue so that the team will not experience what other teams are experiencing in this season. Last season victory that made Real Madrid won the la Liga league title, make many people believed that Real Madrid coach is a talented coach that need to be celebrated for the journey so far with the team. I think, Real coach will not go for new player that cannot add value to them than to bring in new talented player that can add more value to the team in this season and many seasons to come.

Real Madrid have been linked with a striker since last season to replace Benzema but in fact they didn't and with the existing squad they were even able to win La Liga and the UCL last season.
Benzema is the best player in the world right now, for his performance there is no doubt, but he is often injured or absent because he is no longer young, so he is not able to fully contribute to Real Madrid in every match in one season.
but Real Madrid answered many people's doubts with the ability of young players to cover the void very well.
I don't think Real Madrid ever worry about up front because they have a lot of quality players.

but for the midfielder, Bruno Fernandes is now rumored with Real Madrid, it is very possible because they have lost Casamiro and will bring in another player who is in a central position.
Bruno Fernandes is quite a quality player, this will be a very positive transfer for Real Madrid if it is realized.

we actually are seeing it that Real Madrid need to sign a good striker in order to continue their winning journey. but in the reality it could be a different ball game if they sign a new striker because it might take complete one season for the new striker to integrate with the team. This is one of the fears that many clubs face when they have the need to sign a new striker.
You can say that is why they have in revolving around Benzema and the young Rodrigo and Valverde until they find someone that is very reliable

Analyzation is actually needed by real madrid to make sure if it will be picking the right choice. There have been many teams who rushing to picking the players and those player ended become nothing in the club.
Rodrygo is not enough as he was not so impressive like benzema. I prefer to see real madrid to take another pure striker rather than use him. He's no suitable to play at that position.

But next summer I definitely expect a move by Real Madrid side. Maybe Kane or some other striker like him but I feel confident that they will go for transferring a top striker to strenghten their attacking line even more.

Striker was not only become the main concern by real madrid. As far as i know if real madrid was also targeting veteran defender from chelsea and that's cesar azpilicueta. We did know that striker was not only the problem that needs to be fixed but real madrid is also thinking about the defensive line.

I have seen several games of Real Madrid and played very good games. However, Real Madrid is a very strong team.  We all don't know that. Real Madrid has played a lot of good games against many teams. However, I think Real Madrid will do better.

[Jody.Drummer]

Rodrygo in the last few seasons seems to have been trained to be a mainstay and this has been proven during the Ancelotti era, he was given more opportunities and was even able to replace Asensio, who was previously also very good in performance.
He only has one problem, namely that he has to do his best to keep his goal instinct sharp and this is really needed, especially when Benzema is currently in not very good condition.

Rodrygo is young and he has lot of time to improve his skills. I like the player because he is professional and laborious which are important personal traits can help him to succeed. He can step into a same adventure like Vinicius did and they are both good resources for future of Real Madrid.

The growth of two players in recent seasons reduces chance to play of Asensio a lot that makes that player disappointed. He consequently announced his request to be transferred.

On the other hand, this season Real Madrid has also been helped by the presence of several promising young players such as Vini, Rodrygo and Valverde in their squad because apart from having more potential these players will be able to continue to maintain the line of attack especially at a very young age.

Together with three players, they also have Camavinga, Tchouameni who are ready to replace Kroos and Modric in near future. Tchouameni shown that he is ready for big tasks in World Cup. Camavinga is a great player with good skills for both attacking and defensive.

But at this time Asensio also has no certainty, especially as we know that Ancelotti is still trying to extend the contract of this player, although indeed he still has a number of things that are still being debated, especially Asensio also asked for guarantees if he extended the contract.

As for the current midfield, even though Madrid are good enough, the interest in bringing Jude from Dortmund is still very big for Madrid so there is likely to be another competition for Camavinga who is in the same position. Indeed it seems that for the last few seasons Madrid have been ready with their regeneration and are doing well from now on.

I hope that the young players owned by Real Madrid who will be the player to replace the position that will be left behind can answer the expectations given to them. Because the players they will replace are players who are the key to the game from Real Madrid themselves, such as Tony Kroos and Luca Modric. It will be a very tough task for them, and it is feared that they cannot withstand the existing pressure because their appearance size will definitely be pinned on Luca Modric and Kroos, especially in midfield

Benzene is one of the best strikers for the Real Madrid club. Benzema has a big hand behind almost all the achievements of Real Madrid. Currently, Real Madrid has some young players who are performing well. But if Benzema leaves Real Madrid, how will the Real Madrid authorities make up his place?
