La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[CryptoBuds]

These two young Brazilians will wear the legendary jersey number starting next season and as is well known, this number has previously been worn by Cristiano Ronaldo and also Gareth Bale. It seems that Vini and Rodrygo are ready to inherit the jersey number and of course they have a big responsibility to be able to continue the glorious tradition that Real Madrid brought with that number. I think they deserve it because they have had many seasons with Real Madrid and have been able to prove their consistency through goals, assists and also helping Real Madrid to win various titles.

An amazing fact about Vinicius Junior is that he is only 22 years old. His speed and his technique is among the best out there and now he only needs to improve his coolness when he is in the opponent's box and has the chance to score. He is already very good, but there is still a lot of potential to improve, which I thin is good for him and the club. He is a player that has a bright future and Real Madrid can build the squad around him. They won't need a left winger for a very long time.

Indeed, Vini is an extraordinary player, but sometimes his emotions on the field are often difficult to control, so he often gets a yellow card because he always protests loudly against the referee's decisions. Even though he has also often been reminded by his colleagues to focus more on the match than doing things that are not important and can affect his performance on the field.
But when it comes to Rodrygo, it is clear that Rodrygo is more calm and always analyzes the game so that he is often the winner for Real Madrid with his goals. For the left side, there really isn't going to be a player who can replace Vini and that's why when Vini has problems such as racist attitudes in La Liga matches this season, Florentino Perez immediately tries to calm his players and guarantees a sense of security to continue to be with Real Madrid.

For now that is one of his few weaknesses. He really doesn't have a lot of weaknesses, but his emotions are sometimes too intense and could harm the team if he gets suspended for receiving too many yellow cards or even a red card. So far it was still within certain limits, but for an offensive player he received quite a lot of cards with a total of 10 yellows and 1 red card in 33 La Liga games. That is a lot and in the Copa del Rey competition he even received one yellow per game in 5 out of 5 games! It sounds like a defensive player to me.

Vini is an excellent player. If he can maintain his fitness, he will become Real Madrid's main striker in the future. But Vini needs to be calmer and more modest. Vinny is a bit fierce. He reacted badly to the referee's decision. Such behavior should be avoided. He needs to be more calm. Also, Vini is often a victim of racism. I don't know why Vini gets attacked every time even though Real Madrid has a lot of black players. Vini may also have some personality issues. But Vini is still young, maybe that's why his nature is a bit fierce.

Barcelona is not the best team in the world at the moment, even in the previous season they did not deserve this title either.
As an illustration, as you said, the Champions League, which is the league for the top teams, Barcelona cannot get a good position there and is still below Manchester City.

The two trophies owned by Barcelona cannot be used as a guarantee that they are the best team.

I agree with your assumption that Barcelona is the best team in the world right now, but Barcelona is the best team from La Liga. If you talk about the best team in Europe it is Manchester City and this season Barcelona is not one of them.

There is no better team in La Liga this season than Barcelona. The two titles they have won this season are proof that your assumptions about them are very weak, but of course only about domestic competition. I even really doubt how you came to that conclusion, I think you just don't want to admit it.

Actually, I don't want to compare these two clubs, but it's just that these two clubs have advantages and strengths in their respective standings, such as Barcelona being the best in LaLiga and Manchester City being the best in the premier league.
But for the best club in Europe, I feel that right now it's just Manchester city because it has managed to get 3 trophies this season and getting the treble title is enough to prove that Europe has the best club at the moment, namely Manchester city.

I am not sure that he will become the main striker as he is still a very typical wing player. Ronaldo was also a wing player but he was more directing his game towards the goal and the centre in many situations. Vinicius Junior isn't going straight into the centre as often as Ronaldo used to do it for Real Madrid. But Vinicius Junior doesn't even have to do it if Real Madrid now finds a strong replacement player for Benzema. He can then focus on his left wing position and pose a threat to their opponents from there.

because man city has succeeded in getting the UCL trophy this season, they are the best in the world at the moment, but barceloan is on the right track and xavi just needs some more fresh strategies to be able to improve barcelona's performance in the ucl again, to compete in the local league, i see for the next few seasons barcelona looks like it will continue to dominate because madrid has not yet found a substitute for benzema and a good single striker.

You raised a lot of sensitive issues here but, one thing I'm keen on is that, Vini Jnr can't future as Real Madrid's main striker. His just as good where he is and that is, playing from the wing. He's work there has is vital and has been helping the team. He still has scoring opportunity to cut in and the a shot or even make crosses that could turn into attacks. Converting him to a striker wouldn't work so well as he would need someone feeding him the passes and that's what his more better at, feeding Benzema and Asensio the passes.

Talking about Racism, it's been a problem from time and the football federation has been doing there best to put it to a stop but, this is people we are talking about here. Human beings will always exhibit whatever behaviour they wish to but, in the quest for a change, time is of the essence.

Vini Jnr might be the one to have spoken up or reacted but, his not the only one at the end of the lash. Many are but chose to stay silent.

[Leviathan.007]

Jude Bellingham posted some photos of himself and seems like he is ready for his official introduction in Real Madrid. He is a young player and by her, a player like Jude Bellingham Real Madrid made a good investment for the future if they help Bellingham to improve his skills and show his talents he can be a useful player for years in Real Madrid.

Barcelona is no way the best team in Europe but did you just say Barça don't deserve the league title they won? Really? A team won the league with about 4 or 5 games to spare and yet they don't deserve the league? They won the league with like 13 points but you said they don't deserve the league? Oh c'mon! I agree Barcelona have been poor in Europe and that's not excusable but they 100% deserved to win the league. They only started dropping points an conceding goals after they had won the trophy already.
No team in La Liga deserved to win the trophy more than Barcelona. Despite their injuries they still managed to win crucial league games and won the trophy. Please, give Barcelona their floweres because they deserve it.

yes, Barca has done the best for them this season. struggling from the start of the season consistently to get points. Xavi's role was huge from last season lagging behind Madrid and now Barcelona is getting the win. Barcelona really deserves a trophy this season because even though they haven't been able to compete in the Champions League and Europa League this season, maybe it's because their players have suffered a lot of injuries. and Barcelona's conditions are not like Madrid's.

Barcelona are currently not one the best clubs in Europe at the moment and frankly speaking, I don't even think they fall in the best 10 clubs in Europe when it comes to the playing strength of European clubs.
However, Barcelona the best team in Spanish La Liga last season and deservedly won the title. Real Madrid for a fact are more sophisticated than Barcelona but when it comes to the work, Barcelona outperformed them last season and that's why they're currently the Spanish Champions

[EdenHazard]

They deserve this number and I like what Madrid are doing now by changing the jersey numbers immediately.
If I'm not mistaken from the previous season Vini was also offered this jersey number but did refuse because in addition to feeling still not too appropriate, the jersey number 7 is also still worn by Hazard now no one wears this number and of course it must be given to him.
But on the other hand with new numbers for Vini and Rodrygo of course they must realize that with legendary numbers like this especially for Madrid then they have a greater responsibility now.
The season is still long enough to start, hopefully they can make a much better contribution than this season.

Vini at the left flank and rodrygo at the right flank ... both developed very well in the last two seasons and will prove it next season that they could bring back real madrid glorious days , but who's in front? As benzema leaving and so far there are no top players linked to them , there is lautaro martinez and harry kane but that's just a rumor that come from not reliable sources.

They have to bring someone very soon or they might ended up with a panic transfer to land an ordinary striker out of nowhere, seriously.

[Pulsar77]

With the departure of Benzema the biggest question has become "Who will take his place in his position?". Rodrygo is normally a right winger and he can play on the left wing or as a centre-forward when there is a need as well. However his statistics hasn't been very impressive in times he played as the centre-forward. He is much more beneficial as a winger which can be understood from his statistics there as well - 10 goals, 9 assists in 25 matches. He should stay as right winger in the lineup as much as possible.

From now on I hope to see a solid attacking trio on the front. Vinicius on the left, Rodrygo on the right and a solid centre-forward in the middle. I wonder who that striker will be. Martinez and Kane have different characteristics. Kane is more like a complete forward who can do a lot of things to help the team. He has made many assists to Son so far in addition to his amazing finishing skills.

But Martinez is also a great scorer and much younger. If they have to pay 100+ million euros for each one of them then it is up to what kind of a striker they are looking for exactly.

[harapan]

Xavi and Barcelona are not going to win the Champions League in such a short amount of time, but I'm sure Xavi and Barcelona will work hard to surpass what they've done this season. Barcelona is the best La Liga team this season, so they have to be strong enough and be able to compete in Europe next season.

Over time Xavi and Barcelona may return to the Champions League final, but as long as their finances are bad their efforts to get to the final will be very difficult. Some of the current players are good, but the performance of the team will not be the same every season so changes and improvements are needed.

Barcelona has all it takes to make it to the champions league final and win it. They are not there yet but with the right signings they can. In Europe this season, Barcelona were a bit unlucky. They lost a lot of their important players to injuries just before these big games. Even the second leg against Madrid in the Copa del Rey. Madrid would not have won that game if Barça players were complete.
This is the major reason Barça needs squad depth. Few injuries of first team players shouldn't spoil the whole season.

[Hvdv]

for now, barcelona is one of the clubs with the best squad in the world so if they intend to buy players again, it's just a waste.  What Xavi has to do right now is focus on making the current squad work very effectively.  they must be able to at least win a domestic trophy in the following season and the UCL is one of the trophies that Barcelona must target.

Barcelona has been very good in the league so far, they have done a very good job in the league this season, from a performance point of view we think this is good enough, and of course they have to focus on forming a squad that is much more in advance, wanting to win the UCL can be said to be a target of all clubs, if they can show a better performance to win the UCL they must be prepared and arrange as well, considering that the rivals they will face are very tough and consistent in controlling their club's performance.

Barcelona's goal now is to win La Liga this year, as they won La Liga last year. Another target will be UCL, but we should not expect much hope from Barcelona in the Champions League. Who will they transfer during this transfer window? My guess is that they can close the transfer season with a few transfers.

I don't agree with you. I mean barcelona will slowly improve their toughness in every transfer season and that is done in terms of their financial strength. This season barcelona have achieved their target of winning the laliga Trophy and it was done quite well at a time when the club was in a financial crisis but they were able to get up and win a trophy. Yes, indeed there are many things that will be done in the transfer market, whether it's bringing in new players or selling players, and Xavi will do that in this transfer window.

I think barcelona will target a lot of trophies next season.  therefore we will see the quality of players that will be targeted by Xavi in ​​this transfer window. Gundogan is in Xavi target and if this is done successfully or they officially get Gundogan then Barcelona's strength next season will be even stronger.

Real Madrid boss said once that he will try to attract Kane this season and Mbappe the next one. That was said few days ago. Meanwhile Real Madrid seems interested again in Mbappe although the player said in the past that he will continue to play with PSG to honor his contract.
Getting Kane then Mbappe seems unfeasible since Kane will know that he risk to play less in the future in Real Madrid. Better to try to bring Mbappe this year in my opinion.

if what they said about having financial troubles was true, we won't see a lot of tranfers coming in, at least no expensive ones, the Champions league seems far from them, and i'm pretty sure a lot of people would not think about betting on Barca to win it, La Liga will still be competitive though.

Everything is quite simple here. To attract Mbappe this season, Real Madrid will need to pay money or get the player for free next season as a free agent. Another question is that in this case, in this case, you will have to pay the player as a subscription bonus, but still it may come out cheaper. There is also the question of whether this is feasible in the case of Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, bearing in mind the unsuccessful attempt to buy Mbappe a few years ago. As for Kane, I would like to say that Real Madrid needs such a scoring scorer here and now, given Benzema's departure to Saudi Arabia.

The best in the world I think Barcelona is only the best team in La Liga not in the world because the best team in the world for the season that has ended is the English team that won the UCL two days ago. So how can you say that Barcelona is the best team in the world if Barcelona still failed in the UCL and have to try again next season. After all, the nickname of the best team in the world is a team that can get three trophies like what Manchester City got this past season. Not just one trophy, namely in La Liga.

Maybe he was sleepy while writing this and I also laugh a little when someone says that Barcelona is the best team in the world.

It really needs to be known that Barcelona was the best team in the world more than 10 years ago and at that time there was really no team that could beat Barcelona with their tiki taka. But times have changed for now and Barcelona is not at the top, even I think Sevilla is still better than Barcelona if we compare their achievements in European competition. Barcelona has been left far behind by its rivals in European competition, namely Real Madrid, who have managed to be consistent in the Champions League and have often won the title. However, it must be admitted that for this season Manchester City is in control and no one is able to catch up to their achievements by winning the treble winner.

Barcelona team is having an important period because they are trying hard to rebuild the club and bring it back to the top, but this surely cannot happen without money, having financial problems now mean that we will not see Barcelona in the top again for a long time

[mamesso]

I agree with your assumption that Barcelona is the best team in the world right now, but Barcelona is the best team from La Liga. If you talk about the best team in Europe it is Manchester City and this season Barcelona is not one of them.

There is no better team in La Liga this season than Barcelona. The two titles they have won this season are proof that your assumptions about them are very weak, but of course only about domestic competition. I even really doubt how you came to that conclusion, I think you just don't want to admit it.

Actually, I don't want to compare these two clubs, but it's just that these two clubs have advantages and strengths in their respective standings, such as Barcelona being the best in LaLiga and Manchester City being the best in the premier league.
But for the best club in Europe, I feel that right now it's just Manchester city because it has managed to get 3 trophies this season and getting the treble title is enough to prove that Europe has the best club at the moment, namely Manchester city.

I agree if someone says Barcelona is the best club in La Liga this season because they have just won two titles after being transformed due to failures several seasons ago. Comparing Barcelona to Manchester City is like comparing Ferrari to Lamborghini, both have their own advantages and disadvantages.
This season Barcelona lost success with Manchester City, Barcelona was only able to win two trophies while Manchester City won the treble winner. The Champions League is one of the most elite competitions in Europe, Manchester City managed to win the UCL trophy after a tiring struggle, I agree more with Manchester City being named the best club at the moment than with Barcelona.
