La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[CryptoPanda]

I was wondering in winter transfer window why Real Madrid doesn't try to signing new strikers because i think if Real Madrid bought at least one player probably they will solved this problem

There is no news about the policy taken by Real Madrid regarding transfers. The last rumor is Belingham which is in demand by Anceloti. But the news just evaporated. Actually, I am also waiting for the moment for this, because they are currently the right time to regenerate players who are getting old. Especially in the striker position. I don't really understand if they put it all in place to buy Mbaape? It became a mystery. They should be able to use this season to buy some of the players they need.

That's very disappointing madrid didn't buy some important players that may replace the old players like tony kroos. Jude bellingham should become the main target by madrid but as you said that the rumor was just disappearing from the market. Real madrid is not interested anymore with mbappe but the transfer decision will be coming from ancellotti.

I quoted what ancellotti said during the transfer season in january

Ancelotti emphasized his faith in his squad, telling reporters: "We didn’t dip into the winter market because we didn’t need to. If you plan your squad well in summer then you don’t need to use the winter market. When you sign in January it means something has happened, which could be an injury, but we’re fine."

Ancelotti also criticised the intense schedule in the coming months:

"This club doesn’t take any matches off and we try to win every competition," he said. "But, the schedule is too much and there is a limit."

source: https://www.goal.com/en/news/ancelotti-why-real-madrid-did-absolutely-nothing-january-transfer-window/bltf9bf1eebe20db31c

Ancellotti was making wrong prediction about that. Ancellotti might have bought some players caused there will be many schedules for real madrid.

It is good to have faith in the available squad because it will give them that motivation and boost in confidence but we have face the reality that Real Madrid are short in some areas that need strengthening at the moment, playing Rodrygo in centre forward is not reliable enough and we have seen how poor the results have been.

Indeed, this has become quite good with the trust given, but on the other hand this has also backfired a bit, especially when players are injured. and now it's happening to Mendy there. He has no replacement which requires that Camavinga is temporarily forced to replace even if that is not his ideal position.
I think Ancelotti has ruled this out, even though he knows better but pushing too hard isn't really good either.

[BlackBoss_]

I feel Real Madrid will be active again in the summer and by that time it will be much easier to go for Jude Bellingham because the season will be over and Dortmund will also have enough time to find a suitable replacement for him if they can close the deal. Madrid will also have enough time to search for the kind of striker they want to replace Karim Benzema in center forward position next season.

Real Madrid will not prioritize to buy Jude Bellingham because in the midfield, they already have some great young players, Camavinga, Tchouameni, Valverde. Jude is a good player but Real Madrid don't actually need him.

They have a more important priority, finding a good replacement for Benzema at a striker position in their squad. Vini Jr. and Rodrygo are growing very quickly and impressively but they are not players suited for striker position. Mbappe and Haaland are perfect players for Real Madrid to sign in the summer transfer.

Mbappe always wants to leave PSG and Haaland can leave Manchester City if the crisis there won't be handled good enough.

[X-ray]

After the Man City's scandal, it's a golden chance for Madrid to hijack Haaland

Don't you think getting him would be very expensive after just 1 season of signing at Manchester City?
They had a golden chance to get a centre forward from Bundesliga (Haaland and Lewandowski) last summer, but they thought they could depend on Benzema.

Why not? Haaland has been rumoring intentionally to leave the club.

https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1732036/Erling-Haaland-request-to-lawyers-Man-City-Real-Madrid-Premier-League-transfer-news

I think that will be so good for haaland to leave manchester city. His clause can be decreased once city agreed for his clause release to be moved forward. it's all depends on city.

I am not one who like English related players because of the media hype, but maybe they can try Harry Kane and see how it goes.

Haaland can't even expect himself to play in the championship division once city got degradation as a sanction for the club.

[Jody.Drummer]

It would be great if they get Mbappe.  It would be a vital transfer for Real Madrid.  I can't see a name to fill the gap in the forward line for long periods after the analogy.  Vinicius is important, of course, but if Mbappe comes, it will be of incredible benefit.  Of course, we don't know if Perez will get it or not.  If they want international success to continue, players like Mbappe should be transferred.

Why does it have to be Mbappe, who is now often linked, even though it was quite clear before that he rejected Madrid because he did get a bigger advantage at PSG before.
I think that is the answer unless Madrid is willing to spend part of their money to bring this player at an unreasonable price.
I think something like this needs to stop bringing up because now at least this season it's not going to happen.
Quality indeed I know Mbappe is a great player but when he has refused then why continue to hope for something that is not possible this season.

[CryptoBuds]

Real Madrid want to rely on Benzema for each matches but Benzema was often to get injured and this makes Real Madrid cannot played him even during this season Benzema only can played him 12 times and Ancelotti was attempts to experiment with played other player such as Rodrygo as the replacement of Benzema but his performance doesn't really good and this is the risk when some of particular clubs always be rely on one player because if those players got injured the performance of those clubs will automatically decline
I was wondering in winter transfer window why Real Madrid doesn't try to signing new strikers because i think if Real Madrid bought at least one player probably they will solved this problem

At this time of Benzema's career it will be difficult to completely rely on him to carry the team because he is aged and obviously becoming prone to injuries, the best move for Ancelloti now is to find a suitable replacement for Benzema in the summer since the transfer window is already closed. There are still so many options in the market in that position, Real Madrid could try making a deal for Victor Osimhen in the summer.

I don't think the age of Benzema has something to do with his recent injury crises since this season, Benzema is just 35 years old and his performance on the pitch is very good just that he needs some time to really get better because the Real Madrid team is already built on his shoulder as his absence in the team has affected the performance of the team and they are beginning to drop unnecessary points Considering the condition of Benzema now, getting a replacement for him is not a bad idea and getting a player like Victor Osimhen of Napoli whom you suggested is good because currently he is highest the highest goal scorer in SerieA right now is amazing and I hope they make the deal as fast as possible.

I think Benzema had his peak and now the time is a bit over. He won't perform again as good as he did when he became the world's best football player. That's a thing of the past I think.
He is still good enough to fill the gap for a central striker, but he is also more prone to injuries with every year passing by. That is why they urgently need a central striker as soon as possible. But Real Madrid wouldn't be Real Madrid if they didn't know that. They are working on something big behind the scenes I am very sure about that.

Firstly Benzema is over 35 now. And his fitness is not good. In such a situation, the whole team should not rely on Benzema. He will be plagued with several more injuries this season. Coming back from injury is difficult to perform well. So Real Madrid should reduce their dependence on Benzema. If the Madrid team does not reduce their dependence on Benzema, we will see more erratic performances from them in the future. Real Madrid needed to find a suitable replacement for Benzema this season. But Ancelotti did not add anyone to the team as a replacement for Benzema. Was it not his fault?

I personally believe that Haaland is an opportunistic player, and he’ll be switching clubs constantly and that was a key reason why Real Madrid didn’t target him but now they have an excellent chance to sweep in and take him to La Liga. Furthermore I feel that even Kane isn’t a bad signing provided they can strike a deal with Tottenham, because he can guarantee them goals and he has lots of experience too which will further improve the team.

madrid lost 1-0 to mallorca and the saddest thing is that madrid in this match could only make 1 "shot on target". without benzema, madrid's front line looks toothless but actually, Ancelotti is trying hard to make madrid's front line not depend on benzema because that's not good.

I can't believe that Ancelotti is trying not to rely on Benzema now. The team has depended on Benzema for the last two seasons. And there is no way to reduce this dependence without a suitable replacement for Benzema. Madrid needs a talented and experienced striker now. But Ancelotti is only relying on two young players like Vinicius and Rodrygo. These two players are talented, but they are not experienced. Madrid needs experienced players.

Real Madrid want to rely on Benzema for each matches but Benzema was often to get injured and this makes Real Madrid cannot played him even during this season Benzema only can played him 12 times and Ancelotti was attempts to experiment with played other player such as Rodrygo as the replacement of Benzema but his performance doesn't really good and this is the risk when some of particular clubs always be rely on one player because if those players got injured the performance of those clubs will automatically decline

Real Madrid has been completely dependent on Benzema for the last two seasons. And Benzema was in the best form of his career. So the overall performance of Real Madrid was very good. They won La Liga and the Champions League. But this season's scenario is a bit different. Real Madrid and Ancelotti want to rely on Benzema. But due to injury, he is unable to stay with the team. Benzema's performance has been poor since the start of the season. So I thought maybe Madrid would take an experienced striker in the winter transfer. But they did not take any steps to strengthen their offensive.

[rendravolt]

Sevilla's next game is a home one against Mallorca. They have a quite big odd for the win though like 1.90.

It feels like this is worth giving it a try. But Sevilla need to play very careful at the same time. Because Mallorca newly beat Real Madrid as you know. It was a big shock for us and Real Madrid fans maybe but a good morale for Mallorca players. Sevilla are even a problematic team which is why they need to be more aware of the threat. If we watch an effective Sevilla in the attacking line then they might be able to win this game.

Those are pretty good odds, but I doubt that if I bet on this match, the chances of a slim win for both teams can still happen. Indeed, Mallorca's previous results can be a good pump for the enthusiasm of the players against Sevilla later. Moreover, this is an away game for Mallorca even though it looks difficult I'm sure they will be able to win the match. Apart from that, Mallorca has a strong target in this match. If they win, their position in the standings will rise significantly to 7th and they will definitely try to get this in this match.

Real Madrid is favorable for Karim Benzema as a world-class striker and his presence on the pitch have boost the confidence of so many young players in the team. However he have not been in his best peak this season due to the constant injuries he got even before the world cup that didn't make him play a single game. The Los blancos winning the major trophies last season, I don't think they can even get hold of either the laliga title or the champions league due to their poor form. Carlo ancelotti will find solutions to the team's problem and fix it with sudden actions

They have to sort out for a good young striker if they will win anything trophy this season.
Because Barcelona are already the title favourite with 8 points ahead of Real Madrid.

Judging by the text broadcast, the game Al-Ahli - Real Madrid was very eventful and it is worth watching the highlights. After the score was 2-1, I started to worry that Real Madrid wanted to give another unpleasant surprise, but in the added minutes the score became 4-1. Formally, a big victory, but in fact the Egyptian club had a chance and Real had to work hard. Well, the final is ahead and I hope that, firstly, Benzema will play, and secondly, Real Madrid will win again.

Yes, there is a hope for Real Madrid to win again because they were able to performed well to achieved 4 goals to defeated their opponent that made many people to believe that Real Madrid can do better than this in their next match. Indeed Real Madrid strikers really showcased some skills in this match that made their performance excellent, because they didn't allow their opponent to achieved more than one goal in this match. I think, Real Madrid has what it takes to embrace the title because their players are very ready to improve  more.

That odds looks very tempting to bets because as a host Sevilla looks have a good chance to win the match although Sevilla has just lose from Barcelona last week i think they will going to win the match this time and for Mallorca they might be just beat Real Madrid at home before but currently it's different because Mallorca performance were compeletely unstable and for away matches Mallorca records were very poor even Mallorca couldn't win from 3 latest away matches so this makes me confident bets for Sevilla win could be good pick for this match

Al-Ahly was not a strong team. Relatively weak team. Real Madrid was predicted to win against them. I wouldn't even say that Real Madrid played very well. Because Real Madrid scored their last two goals after 90 minutes. A better performance was expected from Madrid against teams like Al-Ahly. But if Benzema was with the team then maybe the Real Madrid team could have performed better. Without Benzema, the overall performance of the Madrid team is already somewhat weak. But before facing Liverpool in the Champions League, Madrid will need to sort out the issues within their squad.

We know that Benzema is considered a star player for Real Madrid, and whenever he is going to miss a game, it becomes a huge concern for Ancelotti and Real Madrid. We shouldn't forget easily how badly they performed last season without him. Nevertheless, I wouldn't say he is irreplaceable. This is because they now have so many talented players that are growing, and we can, to an extent, say that anyone of them can score now with or without him.

Real madrid faces a very difficult situation in la liga. Glad to see that real madrid has been winning against al ahly. I remember when al ahly wanna try to take advantage from some main players that got injured but this team the quality has been saying about the truth. Al ahly can do nothing rather than accept the truth if its team must be losing against madrid. Madrid is full of superstar. Al ahly actually lose even before the match has begun.
There will be a very interesting match once real madrid will be facing al hilal in the final of fifa club world cup. Al hilal has a very good performance in arabian premier league. It's far harder compared with al ahly.

I didn't watch the match but I was almost sure about what the outcome would be. The game against Al hilal is another story and it will be interesting to see, but I think that Madrid won't have any issues either. Anyway, taking the latest results into account, I can't vouch for Madrid anymore, just in case (especially after losing to Mallorca).

Benzema is a very important star player, but now it can be said that the peak of his career is coming to an end. Now he will accept that it is time to leave his position to the young players. Young and promising Endrick will join the Real Madrid squad in a few years. Apart from that, Mbappe needs to be in the Real Squad. If they sign Haaland as well, they will be ahead as the best team in the world. Real Madrid can go back to its glory days in a few years.

I think becoming the best in the world once was a big dream for Benzema that has come true. I also think he knows that he won't be able to repeat what he did during that season. That is just not realistic.

I don't know what Madrid's plans are right now and whether they are still trying to get Mbappe as well or whether that plan is fully put on ice? Anyone knows anything?

The loss against Mallorca surely was a painful one and it was a loss with very bad timing. It turned Barcelona's win into a 6 point game, which makes it even worse.

Xavi just said that Barcelona isn't the favorite for the La Liga title, but in all seriousness I think that is bs. Barcelona is definitely the favorite now.

Well, you send all top forwards to Real Madrid. ) Firstly, Benzema is still capable of a lot, it’s too early to send him on vacation, and secondly, PSG will never let Mbappe leave the team, at least while he is at the peak of his form, that’s for sure, well, City won’t let Haaland go either, he essentially became the most important player in Guardiola's attack, so if they agree to let him go, it will be very expensive, even for Real Madrid.
