La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[KTChampions]

The problem with that, it almost doesn’t matter how much money Real Madrid is ready to spend. They will probably not get another quality striker like Mbappé. That’s why they are really interested to bring him into the squad. Real Madrid was really interested to bring Mbappe in even a few seasons back when Real Madrid probably was ready to offer 200 million for him. I don’t know if they are that much interested in Mbappé still to this date. But it is true that Mbappé is going to be the best value for money right now.

And a lot of people are saying a lot of things about the transfer of Mbappé. But it is actually hard to understand what is going on and what will actually happen without any official announcement. I remember when the same thing happened last time people were saying that Mbappe already has a verbal agreement with Real Madrid. But in reality, it was nothing like that. So I think we should wait for the official statement instead of spreading rumors about his transfer.

Against the background of the fact that Tottenham wants 150 million for Kane, 200 million for Mbappe looks like an adequate amount 
As far as I understand, PSG are trying to sell Mbappe before July 31st in order not to pay him a loyalty bonus (lol), so there is a possibility that we will see some real news very soon.

So the option that Ancelotti can do is to patch it up with Joselu or Brahim Diaz. The existence of Benzema cannot be denied that he has become the spearhead of Real Madrid's success. So don't get rid of that point, in the midst of the transition process that Real Madrid is carrying out, we will see gradual changes until Madrid really finds a worthy substitute for Benzema.

Of course, indeed Benzema is the number 9 striker. He's been an effective striker, he's good at creating spaces and finishing. Comparing with Mbappe actually I don't really like, if I see Mbappe moving out more. He enjoys pulling defenders from the left side. Although he is also good at finishing. Anceloti should also have many options for every match with the condition of the players he has. If he controls the game that has been done often then Madrid will find it difficult to compete for this season.

I personally would not worry about Real Madrid's performance even without Benzema because over time, i'm sure Real Madrid will be able to improve. So, maybe in the next season Real Madrid's performance will not be promising to win many titles, but as a great club then i am sure Real Madrid is able to improve their performance from time to time. So yes, i agree that Real Madrid will go through a difficult transition period next season, but that does not mean Real Madrid is unable to rise, because of course Real Madrid will make great efforts to successfully form a solid squad again.

When Benzema is no longer at Real madrid the club's performance has decreased slightly but that doesn't mean it will be so bad as we have seen lately Real madrid are eyeing players who have almost the same performance as Benzema.
But if you fail to get this player I think it's a little difficult to get another runner up and a little difficult to win the champions league cup.
But all that doesn't give any guarantees and we can only see if the Real Madrid coach will be able to improve without Benzema or it will only get worse.
We'll see what will happen to the Real Madrid club next season.

Still, there are many posts about Mbappe and Real Madrid, I think Real Madrid is a great team and they have a good enough financial situation to easily hire another forward instead of waiting for Mbappe if he really likes to leave PSG and play in Real Madrid he wouldn't accept to extend his contract with PSG in the last time when Real Madrid was waiting for his to sign his contract.

After what happened between Mbappe and Real Madrid last season, I wasn't expecting Real Madrid to be interested in signing him this season. However, this is simply a truth that they cannot do without signing him, demonstrating how vital a player like Mbappe will be to any team that signs him. Mbappe is the most expensive player in the transfer window right now; every team wants him, but his price may rise again if a bid for him is too many.

Against the background of the fact that Tottenham wants 150 million for Kane, 200 million for Mbappe looks like an adequate amount 
As far as I understand, PSG are trying to sell Mbappe before July 31st in order not to pay him a loyalty bonus (lol), so there is a possibility that we will see some real news very soon.

We can't wait any longer; we've been awaiting it for a long time, and I hope the news arrives soon to clear the air for us. Many people are confused, tense, and uncertain as a result of the continuous discussion about Mbappe. All of these rumours will be much reduced if the air is clear.

When Benzema is no longer at Real madrid the club's performance has decreased slightly but that doesn't mean it will be so bad as we have seen lately Real madrid are eyeing players who have almost the same performance as Benzema.

Benzema left Real madrid at the end of last season, and the club have not played any match since then because the new season has not started, so we cannot know if their performance will be better or worse. Benzema is a legend in Real madrid but he has helped the club achieve a lot by giving his best, and he left at the right time when he is already 35 years old, Real madrid will replace him and they will even play better next season.

I don't think that Arsenal will go far in Tue next UCL. We have strong clubs that are eager to devour any club that come across their path in the matches and I don't see Arsenal as one of those clubs. Barcelona is a club to look out for and also Real Madrid.

Arsenal will do better in EPL,I am not underestimating Arsenal but this is the fact. The players are still very young and lack experience to withstand strong teams in an important match. Let's hope to see Arsenal perform more than expected in UCL next season. Manchester city is the current defending champions and I hope they can defend it next season till the final match.

Mbappe is the most expensive player in the transfer window right now; every team wants him, but his price may rise again if a bid for him is too many.

If you follow the current news about Mbappe, only Real Madrid that is really serious to sign him. It is true that he is one of the most expensive players in the world, so not many clubs that have the ability to sign him. Real Madrid actually ever changed their target, they ever tried to sign Harry Kane. But it failed, now they focus to sign Mbappe again. I think Real Madrid assume Mbappe is the ideal striker to replace Benzema's role. What I heard that Real Madrid already got a personal agreement with Mbappe. The problem is about the transfer fees, PSG wants a huge amount of money. I don't think PSG should increase again Mbappe's price because his contract is almost over.

We can't wait any longer; we've been awaiting it for a long time, and I hope the news arrives soon to clear the air for us. Many people are confused, tense, and uncertain as a result of the continuous discussion about Mbappe. All of these rumours will be much reduced if the air is clear.

Why are you confused? Signing a superstar like Mbappe isn't as easy as signing an average player. I think people know it very well, fans should wait for patiently. Anyway, you must realize that the rumors make Mbappe's transfer to be more interesting, right?  

[shogun47]

Yep, we will probably just wait for the 2-week deadline that is always said about the ultimatum given by PSG to Mbappe but indeed things like this are always the same but now it is almost approaching 2 weeks but there is no further news about this and the news of Mbappe and PSG is like floating on the surface.

Currently, there is so much confusion about Mbappe and PSG that it is even difficult for us to distinguish which news is really real and which news is just to exaggerate the problem just for the enthusiasm of readers because when talking about Mbappe at this time, media traffic will definitely go up.

I can tell you that I am excited myself because the whole fan world is watching these dialogues and want to know where Mbappe will be playing next season. I felt that this two week deadline given by the PSG boss didn't sound very convincing because why would Mbappe listen to that and make a decision only because the PSG wants it several weeks before the market closes? Mbappe has a valid contract and he can do whatever he wants. Nobody can force him to leave and that is what the PSG boss implied when he said that Mbappe will leave the club this transfer period if he doesn't extend the contract. But what if Mbappe decides to go nowhere but stay. There isn't much PSG can do about it.

From what I can tell about this deal,  I feel Real Madrid doesn't want to pay big money for Mbappe.  200 million is too much for a player that has only one year left in his contract.  PSG is a very foolish club.  What were they expecting when they did everything possible to keep Mbappe two seasons ago when they had the opportunity to sell him for around 150 million? 
Fiorentino Perez and Madrid may decide to play the long game and wait till next season so they can get Mbappe for free.  Madrid seems pretty confident that they will get Mbappe,  if not this summer,  then next summer.

Benzema is a legend in Real madrid but he has helped the club achieve a lot by giving his best, and he left at the right time when he is already 35 years old, Real madrid will replace him and they will even play better next season.

I don't know if Real Madrid has played any game after the departure of Karim Benzema for us to ascertain the strength of the team without him. The transfer window is still open which means that there are still opportunities for the club to get the right replacement for the 2022 Ballon door winner. They have signed some good young players, but I have not seen any player in the team that is in the class of Benzema. No doubt most of these new signees are talented players but they still need more time to gain experience.

Players like Kylian Mbappe, Victor Osimhen, and Harry Kane would be a worthy replacement for Benzema but we are unsure which player will finally join Madrid. We cannot predict what next season will bring, but with a world-class coach and the combination of experienced and talented young players, Real Madrid might still be competitive in all competitions next season.

[lalabotax]

Talking about Mbappe and Madrid is like a tug of war because indeed seeing from the current conditions, even Madrid must want this player but they are still hindered by prestige, especially before they were also shamefully rejected.

Yes, for some reason, both Real Madrid and Mbappe themselves have always shown interest in each other for Mbappe to Real Madrid. However, as we have seen in previous seasons, in the end, Mbappe still stayed at PSG for several reasons. I do not know whether this season he will actually move to Real Madrid or not. PSG itself seems to be playing with this condition. This is probably a happy situation for them.

Mbappe wants to make PSG lose money for his actions, namely wanting to stay but doesn't want to sign a new contract. This matter must be resolved more quickly by PSG if they don't want to lose money against Mbappe. Well in this month we will see news about Mbappe because PSG really can't be patient with Mbappe anymore

Yes, 150 million will interest teams who have strong finances to recruit Mbappe. It could even be that PSG will set a target of 200 million for Mbappe's release clause. On the one hand, bayern munich still has not succeeded in convincing Tottenham at 80 million, Levy wants to release Harry Kane at 100 million. This is truly a great transfer with a release clause breaking the record for the most expensive transfer.

150 million is still too much for most clubs. Just imagine, which other team apart from Real Madrid can manage to fork out that amount minus causing an imbalance in their Finances? Manchester United? 

I like what Real Madrid are doing right now. Let PSG deal with the monster they created. Real Madrid gave them a very good offer last time around, and they thought they didn't care about the money. Let them suffer the consequences.

The new striker duel for Barcelona against Real Madrid starts next year between Vitor Roque and Endrick, both of whom are Brazilian players who were successfully signed in this year's transfer window. If we look at the previous statistics of these two players, of course they are not much different, Vitor Roque is superior in terms of goal productivity and Endrick is superior with a small number of matches. On the other hand, we know the La Liga regulari which allows players to join a club when they reach 18 years of age.

However, for Vitor Roque, he should have been able to join for the 23/24 season but this did not happen because Barcelona was still subject to FFP sanctions so Vitor Roque would start joining Barcelona in the 24/25 season and vice versa for Endrick because he is still 17 years old so he can joined the Real Madrid squad in the 24/25 season. So it is highly anticipated for this Brazilian wonderkid duel, but indeed we will still see them after the next one season is over.

Endricks has been a poor form for a while but I believe it's just temporarily.  He is good and has a lot to learn.  Committing his future to Real Madrid when he won't be joining them soon was a wrong move.  Signing for a club like Real Madrid put a lot of pressure on you even if you don't play  for them yet. 
I've seen him okay a couple times and I know he's got it in him.

Victor Roque is also a player I have watched a couple times and I absolutely love him. Barcelona have got a gem in their hands and if handled properly, he could turn out to be a new Suarez for Barcelona.  With Lewandoski most likely leaving soon,  Roque would be front man for Barcelona.

PSG itself seems to be playing with this condition. This is probably a happy situation for them.

Real Madrid and Mbappe already showed interest since the last season. Real Madrid even almost signed him, but it failed due to some reasons. The biggest reason was PSG offered special authorizations for Mbappe in the squad and wants to give him bigger salary. So, it makes Mbappe decided to stay in PSG for a more season finally. But in the current transfer window, again there are too much rumor about Mabppe's transfer to Real Madrid. We know that Mbappe doesn't want to extend his contract, so everyone speculates that He wants to leave PSG soon.

Florentino Pérez said they plan to sign Mbappe for the next season. But considering the current situation of Mbappe, I assume Pérez may try to sign him now. Moreover, Real Madrid still has no a top striker, they only signed Joselu. I think Joselu isn't enough to compete for UCL title.

You are very correct; Real Madrid performances without Benzema was a difficult and bad one last season because they struggled to score goals in those game and had more draws than losses too. With Benzema off to Saudi league and Real Madrid signing academy graduate Joselu; it means the frontline would still struggle without a goal scorer. Will Real Madrid get a hit man? or target man ?

In terms of conditions it is true, but on the other hand this is also a form of risk actually because we know Mbappe is one of the special players at PSG, especially with the conditions he does have privileges for the club so that even though he can do whatever he wants and his contract is valid, things like that will not be useful if there is a statement that he will leave when his contract expires because he does not want a contract extension.
This will spark a spark that will actually get bigger because PSG is also a businessman and he doesn't want to give Mbappe away for free.

Mbappe's situation is now very complicated. People want to clarify this issue. I wish Mbappe would take a step towards this. I would like to see him next year with the Real Madrid squad. I don't know if he wants this. Psg wants to sell it as soon as possible.

In terms of conditions it is true, but on the other hand this is also a form of risk actually because we know Mbappe is one of the special players at PSG, especially with the conditions he does have privileges for the club so that even though he can do whatever he wants and his contract is valid, things like that will not be useful if there is a statement that he will leave when his contract expires because he does not want a contract extension.
This will spark a spark that will actually get bigger because PSG is also a businessman and he doesn't want to give Mbappe away for free.

Thus PSG will feel betrayed by Mbappe in terms of his actions, which do not want to extend a new contract with PSG. Instead, Mbappe actions made PSG furious and felt that everything they had given him had gone unanswered. So in a situation like this, PSG will definitely include Mbappe name on the sale list this month or next month because PSG doesn't want to lose Mbappe for nothing next season.

For Real Madrid they can take advantage of this opportunity to sign Mbappe earlier than waiting for his contract to expire because PSG will not keep him next season. Apart from that only Real madrid seems to be Mbappe next destination as only Real Madrid can give him the UCL Title if he joins in this transfer window.

I think Real Madrid will definitely get a striker for the main squad before the transfer window ends. My nominees are Mbappe, Harry Kane. If they can get one of these two names, a great staff may have been formed. Real Madrid wants to go back to the good old days. They have to spend a lot of money for this.

If they can get one of these two names, a great staff may have been formed. Real Madrid wants to go back to the good old days. They have to spend a lot of money for this.

I agree with your assessment that Real Madrid is likely to bring in a new striker before the transfer window closes. Both Mbappe and Harry Kane are exceptional players and would undoubtedly strengthen the team's attacking prowess. However, it's important to consider the financial implications of such transfers. While Real Madrid is known for making big signings, acquiring players of that caliber often requires a significant investment. Real Madrid's ambitions to return to their successful past might indeed require substantial financial resources. It will be interesting to see how the club navigates the transfer market and if they can secure one of these talented strikers.
