La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Sterbens]

Well even with enough cash at hand if club management fails to lay their hand on the right squad there may end up spending a lot of. money and no result will be seen, but if there is the proper use and the right player selections by clubs little amount will be spent to get young players with desired energy to produce results on the pitch.

I agree with you, that is why many teams are still progressing in this season because their managements spend a huge amount of money on a talented players that is helping the team to achieve what they want. Example, Napoli managements spend money to sign in potential attackers that is giving them a good results to be part of those teams that are in a good position to win this la Liga league title. Example, Manchester city are still maintaining their performance from the beginning of this tournament, because their management spend a huge amount of money to sign in Haaland which they are enjoying his performance in this season.

Which might be able to help talk a lot about the quality of the players that were brought in. But sometimes they also fail to get performance from players who have high transfer values. If you look at Manchester City and Napoli, maybe indeed they can be said to be successful in signing talented players, but that is only part of the successful teams. Just look at Liverpool, who this season brought in players on the front lines. But they do not share the same fate as Manchester City. There luck also speaks a lot in my opinion.

Barcelona sacking Xavi can be the worst decision to take that will lead to regret. If xavi is sacked who knows the next coach will even become worst than xavi. Barcelona needs to be patient with xavi to see the best that can come from him. If Barcelona sacks xavi the team can be like Barcelona of the days of Ronald Koeman.  Xavi is a good coach that Barcelona needs, the problem of Barcelona is not xavi. The problem of Barcelona is finance to sign in best players.  When a team has players that good their is no how their wont be outcome of good result in every match.

Barcelona's main problems are undoubtedly financial, but I wouldn't say that Xavi is not a problem. Besides being an inexperienced coach, he is a very good player in the first place - it's a problem to be a coach as sometimes he doesn't understand that players can't do things that he could when he was a player. Secondly, in my opinion, he is a bad coach because he is not at all flexible. Throughout his career, he came to success through one strategy both in the national team and in the club. And he tries to repeat it without realizing that football is changing and what worked yesterday will not work tomorrow.

[arimamib]

In essence, if a team feels unimportant in playing in a certain tournament, then they can go and let their opponent walk out (WO) to win, does Barcelona dare to do that?
If Barcelona thinks the Europa League is not important, then let the opposing team win and Barcelona don't need to come to the field or don't need to come to the match, and at least that way Barcelona doesn't need to spend money.

I agree with this because especially it would be very funny if Barcelona now, who are sure to lose financially because they failed in the Champions League, still think that the Europa League is not very important, even though this can be used as an option to make them get a little advantage to offset losses. gained from their failures.

Winning tournaments can help Barcelona finances, compensation from the Champion in official competitions can balance Barcelona finances. Barcelona will not consider La Liga more important than the Europa League, at the moment All trophies are very important for Barcelona.
The direction of Barcelona to become a Champion has been seen, even though they have been eliminated from the Champions League, Barcelona is still able to survive in first place in La Liga. Meanwhile in the Europa League, Barcelona must be able to beat Manchester United to move on to the next round.

I also think that this transfer is open to discussion now. A deal worth 72 milion euros in total is really huge for a 16-year-old player. Real Madrid scouts must be thinking like Endrick is one of the probable future legends or something like that. Otherwise this deal would be like madness for them. Because they could have used this money to strengthen the team in January as well.

There are so many talents waiting to be discovered in Brazil actually. I hope Endrick becomes one of them and makes us watch great performances. I would be glad to see him being very successful at young age just as Haaland is now.

Real Madrid seems with long term investment after reach agreement deal transfer Endrick and have to pay more than 72 Million Euro, actually due La Liga and European regulation, Madrid need waiting until two years later and Endrick have 18 years old to be Real Madrid player. Not first time spent much money for recruiting young talented, have memorize with Vinicius Jr contract with expensive transfer values and he still at young age before become talented player right now.

Nowadays, Real Madrid still have problem with center forward and spent more than 73 million euro seems not effective, actually have spent 72 million euro for sign new center forward and can replace Karim Benzema position after many time absent due injured.

Because after all Madrid still has Karim Benzema, who has recovered from his injury and he is still very reliable for Real Madrid, at least until the end of this season. I'm sure the Madrid management already have several names on their radar list, for them to target as potential replacements for Benzema later. So, we don't have to worry about what Madrid's management is doing. Moreover, several names have been linked, such as Victor Osimhen, Harry Kane, who are ready to replace Karim Benzema's role later.

As for Endrick. yes, Real Madrid had to pour out sizable funds with player investments instead. Endrick has also been chased by several other giant clubs such as PSG and Barcelona. so it's only natural that Madrid wants to secure this boy as one of Madrid's future prospects.

Real Madrid succeed with Vini Jr. and Rodrygo and these players even can grow more. They are trying to use a same strategy for Endrick by give him and his family a good contract at his very young age.

With the height of three players, I don't think any of them are good at the striker position for Real Madrid. I believe that Real Madrid will have to look for another striker from transfer market. But maybe these players will create a trio attacking like MNS (Messi - Neymar - Suarez) in Barcelona years ago. None of three players have good heights and Vini, Rodrygo, Endrick can create a similar trio attacking.

Real Madrid are currently having a bit of a problem with their attack. Their team lacks some experienced players, and if Karim Benzema leaves their team, it will have some adverse effect on their team. Hope the Real Madrid authorities will solve this problem soon.

Yes, I agree with you that of these 3 names from Real Madrid's posture, they still have to find players to become target men on the front lines. Because as we usually see, Real Madrid always uses players who have the posture that can compete in the air when defending the opponent. The prospects they are currently doing are very good, but they also don't forget the characteristics they need at the moment, especially to replace Benzema.

[LUCKMCFLY]

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.

Well, the issue of injuries is somewhat delicate, but it is that a team is going to collapse due to the fact that one of its best players has to rest, that is something that cannot be avoided, but in the case of Real Madrid , Benzema is not going to take him out this year, perhaps by 2024, we must remember that without him, Real Madrid would not have won anything, and Florentino Pérez knows that very well, he cannot be so ungrateful, besides the reputation What Real Madrid has is intact with its players, but rather let CR7 say so, who said that he would play for less money there, and that is what this type of club achieves when its players are treated well, the loyalty.

Analysis of Real Madrid's past matches shows that they could barely secure consecutive wins without Karim Benzema. As such, if Benzema is influenced, the whole of Real Madrid is affected.
Seeing that there are several tough matches left for the team to play after the world cup, I think it's high time the Madrid board registers another central forward in the team to back up Karim Benzema, or else the entire Madrid future is at stake.

Well, in that aspect, and as you say, you are absolutely right, for me Benzema is one of the best players who is actually the one who has contributed the most to Real Madrid, and I think that for now they have to be somewhat patient, but they have to looking for a striker with characteristics similar to those of Bezema, and that is something very difficult, he is a unique player, he has to have that determination and we must not forget that thanks to Benzema in the last thing he has done for Real Madrid, the victories have been thanks to him, and this is something difficult for the pklantel to look for a player, I really would not like anyone, but rather trust who I have.

On the other hand, transfers and purchases are already becoming evident at Real Madrid:

Real Madrid look set to sign €10 million Brazilian defender

Real Madrid are considering signing the Brazilian defender after impressive spell at Castilla

Tobias would certainly fit the profile of player that Real Madrid appear to be looking for at the moment: young and with a lot of room for growth.

On top of that, he is a right-back as well, which might be great news in the long run for the club, if he is able to develop into a starter one day.

Right-back is a bit of an area of worry for the club at the moment with Dani Carvajal now 30 years of age and no longer in top form. His cover option in Lucas Vazquez is 31 while Alvaro Odriozola is expected to be on his way out soon.

Well, everything is in favor of continuing to improve the team, clearly sometimes in Real Madrid there are certain vulnerabilities in the defense, if they take a Brazilian, what I like is that a Brazilian always thinks of defending and attacking at the same time, That will make Real Madrid a much stronger team.

[$crypto$]

Endrick Felipe is only 16 years old, this Brazilian player is enough to steal the attention of many teams with the game he is showing but I think Real Madrid are betting big on this boy for their future front line.

Real Madrid already know Endrick's potential to be contracted at a high price because this can indeed be said to be a long-term investment, see the value later after Endrick can adapt to the main players or at least at the age of 20-22 maybe that will be seen in terms of his game Now, we don't know how Endrick is, but I think Real Madrid has placed their hopes on young players who have been signed. Examples of successful players are Vinicius, Rodrigo and Camavinga. Real Madrid have managed to grow their game more and more.

Real Madrid seems with long term investment after reach agreement deal transfer Endrick and have to pay more than 72 Million Euro, actually due La Liga and European regulation, Madrid need waiting until two years later and Endrick have 18 years old to be Real Madrid player. Not first time spent much money for recruiting young talented, have memorize with Vinicius Jr contract with expensive transfer values and he still at young age before become talented player right now.

Of course, it is the signing of Real Madrid's long-term project regarding his future squad. I don't know if Endrick will suit Real Madrid's game, but of course he is a young player who still has a lot to learn before breaking into Real Madrid's main squad later.

We may see Real Madrid sign some of the top players in the transfer market, they will have to especially now that Benzema cannot be expected to be fully fit for the remainder of the season. Benzema has been injured several times this season, and really Real Madrid should see that as a reason why they should bring in new players.

What is certain is that Real Madrid will definitely continue to train until it becomes suitable for Real Madrid's game, Endrick is only 16 years old, at least when he was a child he will be nurtured properly by the management and once he is ready he will definitely be announced as the main player for Real Madrid and maybe he will be on the same level as Vinicius later.

There are suggestions that Karim Benzema has recovered from his injury which could confirm that Real Madrid are ready to field him, however this is not certain these are just rumours and there has been no clear decision he will play in LaLiga again after injury.
As for Real Madrid, they are looking for players to replace Benzema later, the rumors have been around for a long time, but Real Madrid don't have a definite target, but maybe we'll find out in this winter's transfer window.

[emrecemsan]

I'm getting really worried about Atletico Madrid's future as long as they keep showing this performance. They had a horrible run in the Champions League by finishing the group stage as the last placed team. They have only the La Liga as a big tournament they are competing in now. Even in the La Liga they are doing pretty bad. They are already like out of the competition for the league championship. They weren't like this in the previous seasons. They were the champions of the 2020/21 season and had really good runs before that season as well.

You don't need to worry about this. Atletico Madrid will finish this season without any success. Teams don't have to be successful every season. This season, Barcelona will not give up the La Liga championship. Real Madrid will push them a bit, but Atletico is unlikely to be a competitor in the race.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid bought 16-year-old Endrick from Palmeiras, but he will be able to sign a contract once he turns 18. Now, player transfers at a young age are starting to happen very early. It's debatable how reasonable it's to give 60 million Euro and 12 million Euro bonus to a 16-year-old player.

"A bit" would be unfair for Real Madrid to tell the truth.  

Because I don't think Barcelona can have a comfortable run in the title competition this season. Real Madrid's poor results in the recent times shouldn't be misleading for anyone. I expect them to return much stronger by the upcoming matches. Benzema has recovered as it seems so this would add an extra strength to Real Madrid's attacking side as well. Barcelona have impressed everyone by losing only against Real Madrid so far. But it doesn't feel like they can maintain this perfect form until the end of the season. There would be times they also stumble so I expect this duo to keep fighting for the title even on the final week of the season.

[hahay]

Yes, if it is certain that Barcelona will win the La Liga title then maybe it is natural for Barcelona to consider the European League not important. But in fact, Barcelona also at this moment still can't guarantee to win the La Liga title, right? Because the gap in points is very close to Real Madrid, at least Barcelona still can't guarantee to win the La Liga title this season.
Therefore, whatever tournament Barceoa is currently part of, of course it will be an important tournament for Barcelona.

Maybe the main goal is not to chase income or profits and or bonuses that will be obtained, but they must realize that as a big team, Barcelona should be able to win a title from one of the existing tournaments this season.
If later Barcelona won the La Liga title and can also maximize to win the Europa League title, then of course that would be very good, right. There's nothing wrong with or a low prestige to get a title, because when they do get the title they will be respected of course and that will have a good impact on the team as well.

Between Barcelona and Real Madrid, either team has a 100 percent chance of winning the La Liga title. These two teams are considered as the best team in La Liga till now, and these two teams are at the top of the points table.

I think Karim Benzema will stay at Real Madrid this season. He is a great striker, and has a lot of experience. He led the Real Madrid team himself and has a unique role behind the achievements of the Real Madrid team.

With several players of Brazilian blood now at Real Madrid, I think that will help him with the adaptation process. Yes, he still needs to learn a lot to improve his abilities so that he can be even more optimal. He is still very young now, and at that age usually players will be unstable in their performance. So it must be ensured that Endrick can develop well at Real Madrid. I feel that with the ability that Real Madrid has to cultivate young players, I'm sure he will become a player that can be relied on in the future.
Previously we still needed time to see his first debut with Real Madrid. It's still a long time away, so I want to see that Real Madrid make the right decision for this wonderkid.

[Doell]

As for Real Madrid, they are looking for players to replace Benzema later, the rumors have been around for a long time, but Real Madrid don't have a definite target, but maybe we'll find out in this winter's transfer window.

If he recovers, he will definitely play in LaLiga again for the rest of this season. Real Madrid, need the services of Benzema as a pure of a striker, them no have other choice to not play him, but I guess Real Madrid will still sign several new players this winter transfer window. To at least have other player options if Benzema is injured again, meanwhile Endrick Felipe still cannot play for Real Madrid due to his age, so maybe at there will be another striker for Real Madrid.

[Anguwa]

I think Karim Benzema will stay at Real Madrid this season. He is a great striker, and has a lot of experience. He led the Real Madrid team himself and has a unique role behind the achievements of the Real Madrid team.

Sure, Karim Benzima will stay at Real Madrid this season because there is no serious talk of him leaving the club anytime soon; he is happy in Madrid and will likely stay there until his retirement because Real Madrid has turned him into a great player. He is the best player in the world, and that recognition was achieved by Benzima in Real Madrid, so they did very well to keep him to this point. I believe they need a strong striker like Napoli's Oshimen as his replacement before releasing him.

[Ratash]

A derby is waiting for barcelona after the world cup but espanyol team doesn't pose much a threat for them since they are struggling with five games without a win plus the game will be in the camp Nou it will be an easy win in my opinion if they perform the same as they did before the break.

[Captain Corporate]

Real will definitely need a transition striker for sure, without a doubt. They need someone who is like 30 years old at most, if younger that would be great but if that players turns out great then don't know what will happen with Endrick. Getting a 16 year old is a very very weird situation, I mean it may take as long as at least 6 years for him to be ready to start at striker position, which is why I feel like its not going to be simple. A player they might get like Jesus would be closer to retirement by the time Endrick is ready to play for example. Not an easy decision for sure.
