La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[martyns]

But it doesn't look like it's going to happen because regardless of the circumstances the two players Haaland and Mbappe are very difficult to put together, although it is possible it takes money and a lot of effort and I'm not sure about that.

Bringing imppape and Haaland are two work players that require a lot of money to get them signed to one club even though the clubs may have such funds will their concentrate all the funds on getting just a few players or spending the money to get other young players that are less expensive.

Haaland and Kylan mbappe are two different amazingly Young players who just begin to make names and fame in the history of football. Haaland will find it difficult to drive in the same boat as Kylian mbappe who shares closely the same football experience and ambition. Mbappe may likely not stay in the same team as Haaland because both individuals will be playing selfishly with the feeling that one will outshine the other. Therefore, bringing Mbappe and Haaland to the same club not only depends on the club's management but also depends on the two individuals' decision

The both are two amazing kids who are doing very well at the moment,and I don't think I will have any reason to compare them because they both have two different characteristics,both in scoring and in team contribution.Mbape showed to the world what he is made of,and even as I respect Haaland for his sharpness in attack,I still doff my cap for Mbape for how he can single handedly give a team win,and that is only where the different is.
Mbape can dribble very well,and gives constant threat to his opponents,while Haaland is only very good at scoring.
Well, bringing the two together to play will be very massive because that team will have no attack problems at all.

Mbappe played very well in the World Cup, but I do not understand why there is so much hype about him. Yes, he is a great striker even before the World Cup, but his results in the finals were only due to two penalties. The rest of the time he was no better than the rest of France's forwards. Of course he's better than many and worthy of playing for Real Madrid, but I think there's a lot of unnecessary expectations around him now.

In the World Cup match, Mbappe managed to bring his country to the final round, and of course it was a good achievement with his skills. Mbappe was seen by the Real Madrid coach, and Real Madrid had planned to buy Mbappe when the January transfer window opened. At least there is an opportunity to develop Mbappe's career at Real Madrid.

Even though he is still young, Mbappe has really shown a very good game. especially in speed and control of the ball as well as the accuracy of his incredible kicks. I was very impressed with Mbappe's performance at the World Cup. And because he is still 24 years old, his potential can still continue to increase. and Real Madrid have been looking for young players with great potential since last season. and I think Mbappe is the best choice.

Busquet has been a mainstay of Barcelona for several years and if I'm not mistaken he has 30 trophies with Barcelona. Reportedly at this age he is starting to think about leaving Barcelona. Reportedly Inter Miami is already waiting for him. But I heard the president of Barcelona is holding him back from leaving in January. He asked busquet to last until the end of the season. Maybe it's because Xavi hasn't found a replacement that can act like a busquet.

At an age that is no longer young, of course, many players have started to leave their old clubs and what happened to Sergio Bosquest seems that he does not want to burden the other players, therefore he wants to leave Barcelona immediately. But now he is 34 years old and Xavi has rightly said that at least until the end of this season he must strengthen Barcelona in the defensive midfield line. It looks like Bosquest will agree to Xavi's offer and only after the season is over maybe he will really leave Barcelona.

[X-ray]

I also don't find it realistic to have Mbappe and Haaland both at the same time for Real Madrid. It is valid for any other team as well. However I think one of these superstars will be seen playing for Real Madrid in the future. And that player can really be Mbappe. Because they were already close to a deal last summer.

The only realistic thing to see mbappe will be going to the real madrid in january. City will not let haaland to leave from the club. Haaland is also very happy playing at manchester city and that's why i see if people were not realistic to see the truth. I hope that mbappe will be going to the real madrid and then it will be so good to destroy liverpool next year.

Let's say things didn't go Real Madrid's way about signing Mbappe again then their target would surely be Haaland. He might seem eager to play for another top team after having 2 or 3 years with Manchester City.

I don't even think that if haaland has become a realistic target from real madrid. City will never try to accept any offer for him as the team already had a beast striker like haaland. Real madrid must find an alternative striker for him. Kane must still become the potential one.

Busquets is one of the senior players in the current Barca squad, he is a genuine product of La Masia. Xavi of course really wants him to stay but not for long. It must be admitted that Busquets' performance has started to decline, Xavi must immediately find the right replacement as soon as possible.

Busquets loves Barcelona very much, I'm sure that when his contract is not renewed he will never play for another European club, but for America or Asia, like Xavi and Iniesta or some of the other former Barcelona players.

At least there is an opportunity to develop Mbappe's career at Real Madrid.

Real Madrid have been interested in Mbappe since last season, but they failed to sign Mbappe because the player preferred to extend his contract with PSG. Mbappe's quality is very impressive for Real Madrid, especially after he showed his quality in the world cup. Real Madrid really want to bring Mbappe to the Santiago Bernabeu to strengthen their attack line while at the same time he is considered to be a suitable replacement for Benzema. Mbappe expensive price is not an obstacle for Real Madrid, Florentino Perez has prepared money to redeem him from PSG.

It must be admitted that Busquets' performance has started to decline, Xavi must immediately find the right replacement as soon as possible.

Sergio Busquets is an experienced player and captain in the Barcelona squad. He has been with Barca since 2018, he has had a great season in that time and won quite a few titles. I know his age has let him down, but not his experience. Joan Laporta wants him to stay, but Sergio Busquets may choose to leave to join another team in MSL, but I don't know the situation now.

Regarding the players who will replace him, Barcelona have De Jong and Kessie. Both of these players are good holding midfielders, but De Jong seems to be better off there. So in the end Busquets leaving won't have much impact, but it's certainly hard to part with such an experienced player who has been with his team for over 14 years.

I'm thinking of Betis and Atletico Madrid for the 3rd and 4th places in the standings this season. I think of a scenario like Betis finish in the 3rd place rather than Atletico Madrid. Because Atletico Madrid seem more unreliable to me with their game. Because it is the same old one and Simeone doesn't seem willing to make any big change. I trust Pellegrini's Betis to do better. Besides I think Real Sociedad - A. Bilbao duo will be out of top 4 again just as they were last season. They make good starts but have difficulties in making it to the end.

Pellegrini was arrived to Betis since 2020 and Betis progress under him was fantastic that he can bringing Betis finish at europa league zone with two times in a row even he can gets Copa Del Rey trophy with this team and i have to say Betis is tough opponent for Atletico to compete for top 4 this because compared to last season Betis performance was quite better now and for Bilbao apparently Ernesto Valverde has found perfect strategy for Bilbao because since he train this team this summer Bilbao performance was far to better this season and maybe they can able to finish at european zone too and this could be good achievement for Valverde because this is first time for Bilbao to playing at european competitions after 2016

Betis this year is a very good team and they already did great results, unfortunately their preformence wasn't really good in the last matches but this is not a Big problem because the season still very long and if they aim for something like Champions league spot they have enough time to achieve this goal

Mbappe will definitely showcase some skills that will make Real Madrid not to regret with the huge amount of money they are going to spend to make him stay in the team. Mbappe is among the best strikers in the world which he has proven it in the world cup competition by helping France to equalized two goals in the second half that made many Coach to fall in love with his skills. If Real Madrid coach can do everything possible to bring Mbappe into the team next year, they will definitely enjoy the positive side of Mbappe in the team.

The future of Sergio Busquets has been a hot topic since the end of last season due to the fact that his contract will end soon with Barcelona, Xavi wants to keep Busquets at Camp Nou because according to Xavi he is a special player and can still be relied upon even though he is already 34 years old.
There is no agreement yet on whether Busquets will stay with Barcelona or seek a new atmosphere in MLS. Barcelona cannot force Busquets to continue to stay at Barcelona even though his entire career has been spent there, only Busquets will determine his future.

Madrid really wants to bring him to the santiago bernabeu in january.I think that real madrid try to consider him as a potential striker for replacing benzema. Real madrid has enough funds to buy mbappe but real madrid didn't urgently need him at this moment. Real madrid may try to aim an alternative way for him. Madrid with mbappe gonna be a beast team that will destroy another team. I think that real madrid has no choice other than used big funds to buy him from PSG

I read rumor that Mbappe asked PSG to put him on transfer market and he is readily to sacrifice his very high salary in PSG in order to find another club.

He wants to find a club with which he can win trophies with them and can win personal awards for himself too. In PSG, he can win Ligue 1 that is not enough for Mbappe. He knows that era of Messi and Ronaldo is ending and he can take over it anytime.

He wants to take over it as soon as possible and feel disappointed that he can not achieve it in PSG. Real Madrid has barrier with Mbappe because he rejected them in the summer.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Age-wise, he still has a chance to play for France once again at the 2024 EURO tournament, but for the next World Cup tournament Benzema's decision is the right one.

Unilaterally, there is an element of disappointment behind Bemzema's decision to retire from the France national team after the 2022 Qatar World Cup. When Benzema was injured during training with the France squad in Qatar, there were reports that the Real Madrid forward still wanted to stay with his friends in the France squad brought by Deschamps, but the coach did not want Benzema to remain in Qatar.

However, this opportunity has been confirmed by Karim Benzema, that he has taken the decision to retire for the French national team, although he still has the chance to play for the latter at EURO 2024 in Germany.

There has been speculation as to the injury Karim Benzema received while training with his teammates in preparation for the Qatar World Cup, as you say Deschamps has no intention of retaining the player, although it is predicted that Karim Benzema will recover in the course of the Qatar World Cup. until the decision taken by Karim Benzema reaped various speculations and led to the disappointment of several parties over the results received by France at the Qatar World Cup.

This could also have a positive effect on other young attacking players. By choosing to retire as a footballer with the France national team, other players such as Chistopher Nkunku, Muani and Thuram.
Another positive effect would be for Benzema to focus on helping Real Madrid win the La Liga title this season.

Currently, Karim Benzema's concentration can be completely given to Real Madrid, both in La Liga and in the Champions League, because they have a much busier schedule in the second half of the season.

While the young players you mentioned, can struggle to prove their quality in the French national team at the EURO Cup which will take place in Germany in 2024, Chistopher Nkunku, Muani and Thuram should really take advantage of this opportunity.

If barcelona has de jong as his replacement and why shall busquet stay even longer in barcelona? i meant barcelona didn't even need him anymore and busquet wanna try to find a new team that will be paying him regularly to be the starting line up.
Busquet was old enough and i guess that if his career in barcelona will come to its end very soon. i think that you shall not take laporta's comment as the decision will be on xavi as the a barcelona's coach with the worst result.
It's better for busquet moving in the january to the MLS or something else. He can still play football even his age was not young anymore.

PSG did provide mbappe with extraordinary facilities, but mbappe realized that if he continued to be at PSG, he would not continue to get trophies, as a professional footballer, the champions league trophy was very prestigious

It is planned that Madrid will try to sign him in the summer of 2023. El Real is even claimed to have prepared a fantastic funding package to bring in Mbappe. Madrid is said to be ready to spend up to one billion Euros or around 878 million Pounds!

the price is really crazy but for a long term investment in Madrid, I'm sure this is really worth it

[Pokapoka124]

I noticed things are slightly different at Barcelona to how it was for Lewandowski at Bayern Munich. At Bayern munich he had enough support from his team mates, I must say I am a little bit surprised at his performance level at Barcelona, at the age of 34 I expected a decline in performance but he has managed to keep up and still scoring many goals this season. Barcelona can do much better if Usman Dembele and Raphinha can step up their game and make more contributions.

I agree with you, and still they have managed to be on Top 1 in La Liga. They are playing at the expected level, put they could perform better and settle a difference in points between then and Real Madrid if they coordinated more their game. But this way is also good, as there will be a fierce competition between both teams also.

Sergio Busquets is a defensive midfielder while De Jong is an attacking midfielder. so even if Sergio Busquets leaves in January, the ideal replacement would be Franck Kessie. or N, Golo Kante if Barcelona succeed in signing him in January. whatever it is, Barcelona should let Busquets go while still having a transfer fee. for De Jong, if Barcelona put him on the sale list in January, I would really regret it. he is a talented player, after all, Barcelona's young midfielder still needs the guidance of a more senior player like De Jong.

On the wing, like it or not if Raphinha's performance doesn't improve. Xavi must replace him with another player, at least Barcelona still has Ansu Fati if Xavi wants to experiment. IMO, Barcelona's problem at the moment is the tactics and strategy applied by Xavi. if Xavi is able to see Barcelona's weaknesses and fix them, I'm optimistic that Barcelona can win at least one trophy. be it La Liga or Europa League.
