La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[speeder]

~snip~
Next season will be a new challenge for Xavi, he will be tested in the Champions League as the most prestigious competition on the European continent. The current squad has been proven capable of giving trophies to Barcelona, but Xavi needs to bring in a few more players so that his team can provide competition in the Champions League.

Can they still buy players? After spending incredible money last season. Not to mention that with the salary list of each player, they will need a lot of money. It looks like it could violate FFP rules. This season Barcelona proved a failure for the UCL, with the same player Xavi may need to improve the mentality of the players. Rumours Messi will return, it looks like it could help them in the UCL. But now that won't happen, it looks like Xavi has to look for non-star players with good games and low prices.

It looks like Barcelona can't do it, but if they can sell one of their players then maybe they can buy another player. At the moment, Barcelona is still confused about finding new players and with the strict rules of FPP it could get them back in trouble. But I think the current Barcelona squad is capable enough to be able to hunt for the La Liga title next season, it's just that if they can compete for the champions league it seems they still can't do it because it's been proven enough that with two consecutive seasons they failed to prove it and had to be willing to go down to the European league.

The Barcelona team made an incredible comeback this season from the previous season and managed to secure the La Liga title. If coach Xavi adds some new players this time, we can hope that this team will be able to compete in the Champions League in the next season.

You are right that the coach of Barcelona needs to think about new players to bring success to compete in the Champions League next season. Only the youth can fulfill the dreams of the future. If Barcelona coach Xavi can fully develop the youth with proper coaching. Then Barcelona will transform into a stronger team. Now it is not possible to say whether the coach of Barcelona will add new players. But it is true that Barcelona have managed to change themselves a lot this season compared to the previous season.

I think Lewandowski's performance depends on the supporting players. Even though in this case he also never hesitates to pick up the ball but in terms of performance he is a waiting type striker and how the ball is given to him.

Lewandowski this season has appeared extraordinary and the top scorer is proof that he is one of the deadliest figures for Barcelona so I am still confident about his performance for next season. even though in this case he can't be like now because of some problems I think Barcelona still needs to think about all the conditions to get him out because apart from not having a striker there anymore, Barcelona is still the same with the many problems they have.

Barcelona is performing well, and Robert Lewandowski is certainly someone who contributed a lot for Barcelona in the last season. But I still wonder if he’s going to be able to perform like that in the next season as well. He is a great player, I have no doubt about that. But he is getting older. Barcelona actually needs a young striker who can perform well. That will be the investment for the future of Barcelona. The question is do they have the financial ability to bring in a striker like that? I think Barcelona will go with Robert Lewandowski as the main striker in the next season again.

With the current player material, it seems a bit difficult. however, that doesn't mean it can't be realized. if, Barcelona doesn't bring in a pretty ideal newcomer. you can be sure, they will again fail in the Champions League. I mean, Barcelona needs newcomers. at least, this team should do some revision of its players. for the back line, okay I agree they are strong enough. but in midfield, Barcelona still needs more mature players. at least, Xavi has to find a replacement for Busquets' position who can become a leader.

Gundohan is the most ideal choice according to my version, as well as Bernaldo Silva. these two players, can lift the Barcelona team much better. the question is, can Laporta bring them to Camp Nou. the answer is very tough, given their current financial situation. one more thing, at least Barcelona must release some of its players. ideally, Ferran Torres, Eric Garcia, Sergio Roberto, Kessie, Pablo Torre, they should let go. if possible, Xavi releases Ansu Fati, Raphinha, as additional funds to bring in newcomers.

In the first set, Djokovic had a hard time with Ruud, but that could also have to do with the extremely hot weather today. When Djokovic started to get into his game and rhythm, it was no longer a competition for Djokovic. A well-deserved victory, and even though the difference in the world ranking was small (Ruud is number 4 in the world after all), the difference in level was big today. You really can't stop Djokovic if Alcaraz is injured. I think that is the only one that can stop Djokovic at the moment, but Djokovic is even better on grass.

Barcelona actually needs a young striker who can perform well. That will be the investment for the future of Barcelona. The question is do they have the financial ability to bring in a striker like that? I think Barcelona will go with Robert Lewandowski as the main striker in the next season again.

His condition is as I said, his productivity and instincts will not decrease drastically if there is good support from the players behind him because this is indeed important.
Even though sometimes he also likes to go down and receive the ball from midfield but still his position is a targetman and as long as he has good support in this regard I still feel that he is still pretty good and can still. But with the record that he does not experience unwanted conditions such as injuries or other unexpected things.

On the other hand, looking for a younger attacking player is also quite good but like you said in this case, are they up to it. They still have to vacate some unused players to make their cash flow more balanced and when making a purchase for a new striker then of course this still needs other additional money to be able to balance the situation more.

That's right, because the combination of senior players is very important in a team. As you said they still need guidance and experience from their senior, because to be a solid team senior role is very important at there, although that young players have talent but if they are not solid it will make it difficult to got a winning.
Still a hot rumor, but it seems like a center forward who deserves to replace Benzema is Kane, because he is very well established in terms of mentality, playing maturity and scoring goals.

it is certain that even though young players have better performance and talent than seniors, they are not experienced enough for several matches such as the champions league or European league, which should indeed be young players need senior players to share experience and guide them to become talented young players for bring his team to perform better.
I agree that if the rumors are true, Harry Kane has almost the same performance as Benzema, which can bring Real Madrid stronger and better this summer.

Although the young players are talented, the team has to depend on experienced players in the important matches. Because under too much pressure, young players' performance often deteriorates. And so, while Madrid has plenty of young talent in their squad, they now need experienced players. Because Madrid's goal is to win the title. Experienced players have no choice if they want to win titles and maintain consistency of performance. We are hearing rumors that Harry Kane might come to Madrid. But this may not be true. But if Harry Kane comes to Madrid as a replacement for Benzema, Madrid's attack will become stronger.

I agree with what you said because regardless of anything young players have a longer prospect but mentality is also quite important and now Diaz is definitely in the Madrid squad next season but of course it's still not enough because at least there has to be more to it than that to make them a little safer.
Kane is still good enough to be prioritized even though in terms of trophies and championships he is still a little weak but indeed with his instincts of course this can be good ammunition for Madrid.

Lewandowski did a good job, but it wasn't spectacular or anything like that. 23 goals in a season is actually what they bought him for and since Barcelona had this extremely strong defense they got away with scoring not so many goals in total. In a season when Real Madrid is pushing them, they will probably need to score more than that unless they can again play a season that is so strong defensively, but it was exceptional for exactly the reason that it doesn't happen every season.

It looks like Atletico Madrid are continuing with Diego Simeone for another season. It is going to be his last year on his contract at the same time of course. Maybe Atletico Madrid's big rise in the standings and being competitive for the second position helped Simeone get another chance next season. Because even in a not good-looking season it was important for them to qualify for the Champions League at least.

If it weren't for that amazing winning streak for a long time then they might not have been able to finish the season in top 4. But Atletico Madrid have been repeating themselves for two seasons. They need to be competitive for the league title otherwise I don't expect Simeone to be able to sign a contract extension.

[CPNpr]

Barcelona won this league and this can be a great achievement for Xavi and his players especially when we know Xavi won the season while didn't have a good financial situation compared to Real Madrid. Barcelona also failed to hire Messi, I think Barcelona will have problems for the next season because they don't have enough good players and they need to hire many players at least they need to hire a forward to have a young alternative for Lewandowski.

Yes, you are right that next season Barcelona will have difficulty getting new players who are stronger, while Barcelona's finances are currently very chaotic.
But let's see if Barcelona's management will raise their voice on this issue and immediately follow up on financial issues that must immediately carry out player transfers to strengthen Barcelona.
If not, I doubt if in the next season Barcelona will not be able to compete with Real Madrid.

Real Madrid can add new ones to the transfer bombs that started with Bellingham. For example, very good names are spoken instead of Benzema, who left the team. Especially Harry Kane. Even without him, a great striker transfer could definitely happen. The strongest team of this year may be Real. Even Manchester City can't stop them if Mbappe joins the team.

Kane and Mbappe are probably good options for Madrid in their search for a replacement for Benzema. but it seems the current rumors are looking far away for Madrid to get both, or one of them.
Kane seems more interested in Man United. while Mbappe I don't think will leave PSG after they lost several important players in the squad.
Madrid must find another alternative if they do not want to be left behind by City. this season Madrid is lagging behind City and they have to catch up with several player transfers. if not next season City could have dominated again in Europe.

For Real Madrid, next year should be with a very good squad because they haven't won a trophy this year other than the Copa Del Rey. They had to leave the Champions League and La Liga to their rivals. They were subjected to a lot of criticism especially because of losing La Liga. They should definitely get a very good striker next year.

Real Madrid's performances this season have been erratic. Benzema was injured several times. Because of this, the team cannot maintain consistency. Their performance against Manchester City in the Champions League was abysmal. They will definitely have to build a strong squad for the coming season. Otherwise, the team will not be able to win any title in the next season. Madrid's main player Benzema has left the team. Madrid also needs to strengthen their midfield. Madrid management will have to spend a lot of money if they want to strengthen the team this season.

A club as big as Real Madrid is now almost out of business. Real Madrid is suffering a lot of disappointment due to the fact that Benzema, the player of the Real Madrid team, is not in the team. It is a matter of concern whether they can produce players as skilled as Benzema. Looking from the youth side, it will be seen that it is not possible to produce such skilled players so quickly. However, if there is a shortage of talented players in Real Madrid, the reputation of Real Madrid will slowly disappear.

It looks like it could violate FFP rules. This season Barcelona proved a failure for the UCL, with the same player Xavi may need to improve the mentality of the players. Rumours Messi will return, it looks like it could help them in the UCL. But now that won't happen, it looks like Xavi has to look for non-star players with good games and low prices.

Even though Barcelona has complicated financial problems, but I think they can buy some of the players they want, certainly not about Messi. Xavi has shown enough interest in plans to bring in a defensive midfielder to replace Busquets, that is his priority at the moment and maybe he will get one. Regardless if it's a star or not, but I think Xavi will try to get it next season.

yes I totally agree that barcelona must get a busquets replacement before the 23/24 season starts. barcelona is working hard to get a busquets replacement and rumors are joshua kimmich is the chosen one to get that tough task at barca but until today there has been no official news about this.

In La Liga, Barcelona had made a comeback at the start of the season and they were very confident of being able to shift Real Madrid's position to become La Liga champions this season, which was a good result. For next season's champions league, it is certain that Barcelona can do it, but if they are to advance to the quarter-finals, they are still unable to. New players are indeed very important for Barcelona because they are still having a hard time winning with a landslide score like the previous season and I think they will repeat the same thing if in that situation. And as I said above, maybe the only way for Barcelona to achieve this is to sell one of their star players so they can buy 2 or 3 new players to strengthen their attack line.

I really think Barcelona should be considered in the way they pay their players. They give away too much salary in my opinion. If you look at Real Madrid I think we will find the salary to be more deserving for the Real Madrid players. We all know how players like Sergio Busquets and Pique were getting huge amount of salary even when they were not performing well enough.

Lionel Messi is already on his way to MLS as far as I know. Barcelona will have to get over him. Lionel Messi has moved on and so should Barcelona. I am still not expecting too much from Barcelona in the Champions League competition, to be honest.

[BitcoinAccepted]

In the national competition it is always 50-50 between Real Madrid and Barcelona. The relations in the CL are still heavily in favor of Real Madrid. There is actually no logical explanation for it. But Barcelona against Liverpool a few years ago, everyone had already counted on Barcelona to be in the final with a mediocre team, by the way. I expect that Barcelona may have a little more advantage because Benzema has left and Barcelona is in a growing phase and there is a lot of build-up and potential in this team. Vinicius may go to England.

For now it seems that Barcelona is still lacking the best players and if you have to sell top players just to get 2 or 3 players I don't think it will be a guarantee for the future Barcelona will be stronger in the next season even in the champions league.
But if the management is able to figure out how to get new players without having to sell top players I think that will be more effective and guarantee more performance improvement in the season to come.

But on the other hand, in this case they also always make cuts and that is still not enough until now, even the arrears of some players may still not be over.
Now they will try to minimize that. The possibility that Busquets and Alba are also now leaving could reduce their wages a little.
Talking about Messi from the beginning has become nonsense for Barcelona because in fact with the conditions they actually want to bring Messi is also something funny in my opinion because it is clearly not possible especially for now.

It seems that the League has not yet lifted the restrictions on Barcelona and in order to buy someone some players will have to get rid of (even taking into account the players who have already left). Today I read that Javi has some difficult choices (who to keep who to sell/let go), but in any case, he will have to make these choices. An unpleasant story, but Barcelona itself is to blame for driving itself into a pre-bankrupt state.

Barcelona is still possible to buy players, they seem still have funds for new players. But surely they probably won't target signing top players with high prices, Barcelona looks for good players with cheap prices. Or Barcelona will try to negotiate the players with free agent status. I assume Barcelona will focus on signing defenders (left/right backs) or defensive midfielders.

Yep, Barcelona failed in UCL & Europa League. So, I believe Xavi will do something to build more Barcelona squad. One of the ways is to sign new players who can support the current players to be stronger. Barcelona seems to target winning UCL trophy next season. They must target a more prestigious trophy after they won La Liga trophy this season.

It is not grandiose to do but with conditions like that they must move quickly to vacate several players so that their cash is more stable, especially the demands of FFP are clear there that they must try to vacate around more than 170 million to be able to make their salary conditions safe and when in this case they want players who are certainly in the UCL then inevitably they have to vacate more than that because we must realize the vakue of the player will be much bigger for now especially in terms of salaries.
The risk now is only how Barcelona can get more fresh funds in order to patch up their current condition because if they only continue to add players without seeing their condition too it is the same as suicide.

They are good in swapping players in order to get extra wages allocated for transfer fund , we might seeing their crucial player leaving and get a lower quality player , they have been practicing this for at least 3-4 years ago even before the corona virus hit us all.

At least under xavi barcelona looks a bit better , they should have been suffering the whole season, lucky barcelona.

That has already passed where the option that was carried out by Barcelona at that time was to implement a salary cut that was almost quite large which at that time they were hit by a financial crisis but they had succeeded in doing this. Even for De Jong was willing to cut his salary and his loyalty to Barcelona still the same, namely staying with Barcelona last season.

Indeed this reflects that Barcelona must be able to adjust the level of spending they make for each season because the crisis finances they faced in the previous season have completely not yet improved this season. Especially since recently they have been constrained by financial problems which have prevented Barcelona from repatriating Lionel Messi.
