La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Litzki1990]

Barcelona to go for the Champions League title? I don't think so for now. Because they still have a long way to go before doing that. They have been really unsuccessful there for two years and I wouldn't expect them to fight seriously for the title all of a sudden. For this to happen Xavi just needs to try different things in his strategies in the first place. But I'm pretty confident that he wouldn't change his system in any tournament. But still this season ended well for them in the La Liga.

Maybe winning this title after a 3-year break can motivate them to play better in the Champions League as well. Their main target should be to qualify from their group in the CL.

Its seems early for predicting Barcelona win Champion League tittle next season, need waiting group stage drawing and looking which one in the same group with Barcelona because last two season always failed in group phase. Winning La Liga tittle in this season and signing Gundogan as winner Champion League with Manchester City is can't guarantee for Barcelona win Champion League tittle next season because Xavi has bad memorize when playing in Champion League since become Barcelona manager.

Barcelona have realistic target qualify from group stage before targeting winning Champion League tittle, its not easy when getting the same group with Bayern Munich and Inter Milan or other bigger teams when drawing group stage drawing.

Barcelona didn't have a bad start into the Champions League in terms of their performance last season against Bayern Munich. That was a close game with a better ending for Bayern, but it could also have been a good result for Barcelona. But after that game they flushed their Champions League dreams down the toilet as they played really bad. For this season I would also be patient and see how they are doing in the first group stage games and also who the opponents will be of course. As the 1st in La Liga they should be in a group that they can manage to get past quite well and then we'll see from there.

Barcelona's performance in the Champions League last season was very poor. Barcelona have performed poorly since the start of the season. But despite performing so poorly from the beginning, Barcelona finally fulfilled their dream of winning La Liga. Barcelona may do well in La Liga next season, but Barcelona may fail in Champions League this season as well. Because Barcelona has not yet failed to create the kind of team that should be created to do well in the Champions League. The players who played in the Champions League last season may also play in the Champions League for Barcelona this season. If they enter the field with the previous team, then Barcelona has no chance of doing well in the Champions League this season.

[Pulsar77]

Even if Barcelona dominate the next La Liga season as well I wouldn't still expect them to be more successful than Real Madrid in the Champions League. We have witnessed this for a couple of seasons there. The La Liga and Champions League are completely different environments. We have seen how unready Barcelona are for the Champions League with this new version of them. I don't know if they can achieve a good success there with Xavi but they should get there in time with or without him.

But I don't think it will happen in next season. My expectation from them is to get past the group stage successfully this time but to say goodbye to the tournament in a short time after that. At least this is my scenario unless Xavi makes changes in his game plan there.

[Docnaster]

Indeed, we can imagine when Barcelona was eliminated by Inter Milan and Bayern Munich in the group phase where Barcelona had to give up early in the Champions League last season. I believe Xavi can restore Barcelona glory in the Champions League, but that may take time and management's hard work in bringing many star players into the depths of their squad.

It looks like the champions league next season will be even tighter and it will be tough for Xavi to take Barcelona to far in the champions league. Yes, it looks like their first target is to qualify from the group phase and enter the quarter-finals, which will be extraordinary. But so far the big hope is the ucl trophy even though it's impossible but there are always surprises that happen.

Champions League is always important and interesting to watch. The games there aren't easy obviously and next year will not be an easy challenge as usual.
Barcelona's performance under Xavi improved but they still need to prove how powerful the club is among the present one.
The only problem with managing Barcelona is how hard to get a cohesive team

Of course, getting a cohesive team requires capital and as such the whole thing boiles down to the capital. For a very long time now Barcelona has allowed In insolvency. Remember it was one of the reason Messi left. It wasn't at his own free will. There are several players Barcelona would have brought to the team but couldn't due to their financial condition. They are currently struggling with Al Hilal to bring in Marcelo Brozovic and the SPL team is leading the race all because of the differences in financial strength.  Xavi is capable, Barcelona is only having financial problems

No, check out the first game Bayern Munich - FC Barcelona. I also watched it and I remember that Barcelona could have taken the lead during the game a couple of times but Lewandowski messed up chances that he normally would never miss. That gave Bayern the chance in turn to take the lead and they did with a bit of luck because Barcelona had four huge chances before them. I would even say that two out of those four chances were a 100% goal missed. A realistic result after 50 minutes would have been 5-2 for Barcelona. Then it was a header that gave Bayern the lead. That is how games can develop, but Barcelona did not play bad at all. They dominated in all respects except for goals scored.

I'm quite happy to see the voting board in this thread has been updated. But looking at the results of the temporary voting, it seems that Barcelona will still gain more confidence in securing the title again in Laliga next season.
I personally also chose to vote for Barcelona. Last season I chose Real Madrid if I remember correctly. But this season I have doubts with Real Madrid who have even lost Benzema. even though they have brought in a striker to fill the void left by Benzema. but I don't think Real Madrid has yet to get a player who can replace Benzema's role.

It is reported that Mbappe may come this season to Real Madrid to fill the Real Madrid front line so that he remains sharp. I look forward to hearing more about this. So if Mbappe really comes to Real Madrid. then maybe Real Madrid will be seeded again.

[rendravolt]

Previously, Toni Kroos had received another season's contract extension until 2024 and yesterday Luka Modric also received the same thing, so we will still see the two Real Madrid veterans do one last dance next season. As the only surviving Ballon D'or winner in Europe, this is certainly a good example and even at almost 38 years of age, Luka Modric is not tempted to join a Saudi league team.

Even though Luka Modric has repeatedly received enormous salary offers if he wants to leave Real Madrid and join the Saudi league team, it seems that his passion is still burning for European competition and he doesn't want to leave Real Madrid just for money. Toni Kroos and Luka Modric will have one more season left until next year and this will mark the end of the Real Madrid era which was filled with a dreadful squad dating back more than a decade.

[Ahli38]

Gündoğan joined Barcelona and he is going to play for this team in the next season but the fact about Gündoğan is he came to Barcelona to fill the Bosquets's place in this team I don't think if Gündoğan can ever change his playing style and perform like Bosquets for Barcelona.
Also, the first problem for Gündoğan is he usually used the number 8 on his shirt and asked for this number while Pedri is using this number and they ask Gündoğan to choose another number.

I think, this is a welcome development to Barcelona, and it will help them to improve higher next season, because Gundogan is a player that have strength and energy to make things work well for their team to embrace victory before the end of the match, which he will definitely showcase those skills next season. Based on the arrangement Barcelona coach is trying to put on ground against next season, I think they will win many trophies next season that will made the whole world to celebrate them for the consistent performance. I don't Barcelona coach will allow him to use number 8, since pedri is the one using that number to display for the team, which Gundogan will understand the coach in this summer because Barcelona need to maintain consistent performance in la Liga league competition and other completion.

Xavi Hernandez in the coming season will definitely target the Champions League trophy. And I think Xavi will still want to win the title back at Laliga. In the last season, we know that Xavi only focused on Barcelona to win the title in Laliga. But for the coming season to start I think Xavi will indeed have higher ambitions. And I also have high hopes for Barcelona in the coming season.

I think the arrival of Ilkay Gundogan to fill the Barcelona midfield will add strength and attack power to Barcelona. as we know Gundogan is a player who can be anywhere. In fact, he is also prolific in scoring goals even though he is only a midfield player. And this is exactly what Xavi wanted from Ilkay Gundogan.

The competition has not yet started, which means that each club still has time to continue updating their squad as ideally as possible and it is possible that Barcelona will have a difficult opponent next season. So I can still see the reshuffle being carried out, especially Real Madrid. I know that Barcelona has been quite promising so far with the addition of Gundogan, the potential to win a bigger trophy. Because this is football that is difficult to predict, especially when Barcelona is facing a busy schedule by dividing its focus on the Champions League.

Mbappe is still in the contested stage with the arrival of competitors in the transfer market, namely Liverpool automatically demanding Madrid to agree more on the price that PSG has issued.

Modric already 37 years old but he still can playing consistent  and last season Modrid was playing 46 times in all competitions with Real Madrid and i think this is showed how important him for this team because although he was not young anymore but Ancelotti still trust him to playing regularly and Modric has proven that he is one of the few players who doesn't care much about money and he can be leave Madrid this summer but Modric's love for Madrid has made him reject an offer from Saudi Arabian clubs and i think he has made right decision because although currently Real Madrid has attempts to regeneration their squad with buying young players but this team still needed senior players to guide them and so far his duet with Kroos still one of the best duos in Madrid's midfield

Although Luca Madrid is 37 years old, he still plays great in the midfield wearing the number 10 jersey for Real Madrid. Even at the end of his career, the manager has placed a lot of trust in him and he has repaid his trust as often as the manager has placed his trust in him. Real Madrid has extended the contract with Luca Madrid, which means that this Croatian star will definitely stay in Real Madrid for one more season.  
Real Madrid have signed the 37-year-old midfielder and have faith in him. I believe Luca Madrid will have another great season for Real Madrid. Real Madrid have organized their team in such a way that there are no imperfections. In other words, starting from emerging stars, there are enough experienced players in their team.

The only problem with managing Barcelona is how hard to get a cohesive team

In the next season it might be more difficult for every team in the Champions League because there are many rumors about changing players in each team and that will affect the strength of each team so that nothing will be easier to win the Champions League. Even though every team will fight to become a champion there, and Barcelona still needs to prove it by relying on the tactics used by Xavi next season because the previous season Barcelona still failed in the Champions League even though it managed to win in La Liga.

[shinratensei_]

Vini has become a player with highest salary in real madrid right now. His new contract push him to get very big salary from real madrid. He is also having very high release clause. He was a golden asset that owned by real madrid.
He will be staying in real madrid until 2027. Im very glad to see that real madrid has been taking such decision to let him stay in the club with more benefit for him.

So many clubs were ready to get him as he has been rumored to leave from the club due to the racism case in la liga when madrid faced valencia last season.
Im very happy vini stay here. He will become joselu's partner next season.
I hope joselu will able working together with him next season.

It's too early to tell what the vote shows - too few votes:

Barcelona   - 5 (71.4%)

71% for Barcelona  Bookmakers have more serious assessments and they consider Real to be the favorite:

Real Madrid 2.10

Barcelona 2.35

It will be interesting to see how these quotes change if Mbappe ends up at Real Madrid this summer and not a year later.

Indeed, Modric's decision must be appreciated to stay at Real Madrid and it was Modric himself who asked for the contract extension. However, as a Real Madrid legend, Florentino Perez will certainly grant his favorite player's last wish to be able to compete on the final stage starting next season. It is clear that his experience at this time is very important for the young Real Madrid players who will be the next successors and with Toni Kroos too, of course all these young players will be filled with very useful knowledge in the future.

To be honest, there is no easy team to win the Champions League trophy, competition is always present every year and a number of quality teams always enliven the title race in the competition. Barcelona is trying to build up its strength so that it can compete with other favorite teams, last season's failure was very painful for Barcelona, they felt humiliated after being eliminated in the group stage.
Next season Barcelona comes to the Champions League with the status of La Liga champions. There needs to be a change in the squad to go further while maintaining the opportunity to become champions. Xavi is trying to shape Barcelona to be even better than last season, the arrival of several quality players is expected to bring Barcelona back to win the most prestigious trophy.

I hope joselu will able working together with him next season.

Also, it seems that Real Madrid has always had great players from Brazil, so it's no wonder that Vinicius Junior can continue to grow and develop very well at Real Madrid. I personally firmly believe that Vinicius Junior will stay at Real Madrid for a long time and yes, at least I know that this will happen. So, with news like this, at least I personally am no longer surprised because of course, Real Madrid will be willing to keep a young player with great potential like Vinicius Junior.

The deal has not been signed yet though, but it has been agreed between both parties. It just a matter of time before it will be singed.
It was so certain Vinicius wont be leaving Madrid. Madrid would never allow that, not for anything. Vini is among the the three best players in his position right now and any club that has him would not let him go as far as they can afford to keep him.  Most of Madrid's attack comes through Vinicius, it would be a shame to let that kind of player go.

With Mbappe, things will be easier for Madrid, but he would have to play the central forward position or left wing because no coach will bench a player like Vinicius. Not because hes better than Mbappe, but because he too good to be on the bench and the only wing he can play is the left wing.

[HajiBagi]

Nice move; I believe this is the proper course of action, and by the time the league begins, we should be able to determine the league's winner. I'm thrilled because I know the competition will be tough; Barcelona will be particularly difficult because they have the best squads and can defeat any team, much like Manchester City is doing in the Premier League, but real Madrid wants to exact revenge for losing to Barcelona.

Barcelona's performance in the Champions League last season was very poor. Barcelona have performed poorly since the start of the season. But despite performing so poorly from the beginning, Barcelona finally fulfilled their dream of winning La Liga. Barcelona may do well in La Liga next season, but Barcelona may fail in Champions League this season as well. Because Barcelona has not yet failed to create the kind of team that should be created to do well in the Champions League. The players who played in the Champions League last season may also play in the Champions League for Barcelona this season. If they enter the field with the previous team, then Barcelona has no chance of doing well in the Champions League this season.

No, check out the first game Bayern Munich - FC Barcelona. I also watched it and I remember that Barcelona could have taken the lead during the game a couple of times but Lewandowski messed up chances that he normally would never miss. That gave Bayern the chance in turn to take the lead and they did with a bit of luck because Barcelona had four huge chances before them. I would even say that two out of those four chances were a 100% goal missed. A realistic result after 50 minutes would have been 5-2 for Barcelona. Then it was a header that gave Bayern the lead. That is how games can develop, but Barcelona did not play bad at all. They dominated in all respects except for goals scored.

I do not think that it was an intentional thing, like "oh he didn't play well against his old club" type of thing, he was just unlucky that day, it wasn't as much emotions as it was more about pressure because he was expected to carry the scoring load on a team he just got there and to be fair he wasn't used to it just yet.

Barcelona is still a great club and they will do fine, as long as they do not lose any big names, and they already got Ilkay, I feel like they do not have to really do anything else at all, they can just start the season all over again this season with last years team plus Ilkay and they would be good enough. Not really sure if that would be that hard or easy to handle but I bet that it is going to be a fine deal in the end.

I'll go for Barcelona to successfully win and defend the La Liga next season, Xavi Hernandez did so well to win the league as well the players showed desired that they really wanted to win the trophy. Once again Barcelona to win, they have signed IIkay Gundogan, hope's would be for them to get a single pivot to replace Busquet and they be good to kick off for the Pre-season.

Real Madrid had the capacity last season, but they over relied on Karim Benzema and he was Injured during big games also failed them. They've signed some quality players but still not convinced they'll win the League. Vini deserves the new deal and the new jerseysfor Real Madrid, he's a top player.
