La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Renampun]

But does it really matter whether Real Madrid would pay 180 million or 220 million? I think that Mbappe would be worth the money for lots of reasons. There is all the merchandise sales and Real Madrid would again be this club that was able to sign the best players in the world like they have done many times in the past. Their reputation would benefit again from that transfer and Mbappe brings in his following from his social media and he would not only be a good deal for Real Madrid, but for the whole league.

the value is fantastic if madrid has to pay mbappe at that rate and maybe mbappe's transfer will break the world record but looking at mbappe's performance so far, that is money that madrid deserves to spend and surely madrid will benefit beyond that, there won't even be a team in the spanish league that will be able to match madrid. barcelona and ATM definitely don't expect mbappe to go to madrid because the competition will be very tough. from rumors that continue to circulate, the president of PSG does not want to lose mbappe for free (free transfer)

Joselu should seize the opportunity he gets. Considering that Carlo Ancelotti gave them enough chances, especially in the friendly matches, these matches are also important for his future. Arda, the young talent from the new transfers, did not play. He was said to have been injured the day before, probably because of this he didn't play. We want to watch it too. Real got off to a good start, beating Milan 3-2.

He came to Madrid in a loan transfer and Real Madrid don't consider he as their main solution for a striker position. They will try to use him in one season and consider to buy him if he plays well. Else he will not be bought by Real Madrid and if Mbappe won't come in this summer, he will come in the next summer.

Ancelotti does not have personal conflicts with his players and he is a friendly coach with his players. He will give opportunities to Joselu and the rest will belong to the player. The player must prove that he deserves to be chosen in Real Madrid squad. Competitiveness in Real Madrid is never easy so Joselu won't easily to get that position if he plays bad.

[Velvet78]

I see that Real Madrid have given nearly all the players a chance to play in the game against Milan. But I didn't see Arda Guler entering the game as well. I wish Ancelotti gave him a chance too. This is a friendly in the end. It is the best chance to see all your players on the pitch. Arda is one of their new transfers so he should have also been in the game.

Hopefully we can see him in their next game. Because he is praised quite much and he has really nice skills too. If he gets chances already now and shows a satisfying performance it would have a positive affect on his playing time during the season too.

Pre season match Real Madrid 3 vs 2 AC Milan

Nice result for first pre season match Real Madrid after success winning against AC Milan, first starting eleven Real Madrid played with full main player after several recruitment from Jude Bellingham, Brahim Diaz and Joselu played in the first minute. Have winning mentality its important key how Madrid success won from AC Milan although first half have conceded two goals. Federico Valverde success coring two goals and Vinicius Jr played on second half success contribution one goal and Madrid win for the first pre season match.

Carlo Ancelotti give chance for all players exactly with new signing get first minutes play, almost them need time for adapting and Joselu have to show his capacity as Real Madrid's foward.

Good results by lowering the main squad, Ancelotti is trying to give adaptation time to new players. The Pre-season tour is the first step to face real competition before the official league starts. Positive results can improve the mentality of the squad, but friendly matches cannot be used as the main benchmark completely.

AC Milan was unlucky against Madrid, even though in their previous game they won a big win against FC Lumezzane. Two clubs that have a winning mentality and a long history, meeting in a friendly match is like watching the Champions League Final.

[püsür]

Real Madrid's performance was truly impressive. It seems like that the new transfer was going well. Joselu needs more time to adapt with the play style owner by real madrid. Ac milan's keeper was really bad. This guy shall be replaced with a better keeper.
Even though that was a friendly match but i wanna say if the first goal from valverde was pure goalkeeper's mistake from acmilan. I was watching how bellingham and joselu contributed nothing to the club.

valverde is a gem owner by madrid. The club shall not try to sell him. Acmilan was also performing so well during the match against real madrid caused by it was able being equal with real madrid.

There must be a lot of evaluations for bellingham and joselu. Bellingham is over rated midfielder.

Bellingham of course needs time. It is only natural. Nobody can adopt super fast, every player in the world needs time. As you said, I think Milan was also great, surprising that they were better than Real. First half was all Milan almost. And second goal of Milan was utterly amazing, I love those kind of shoots and goals. If in Real's first goal, the goalkeeper didn't make that huge mistake, things were looking pretty bad for Real. But that goal helped their game much easier. Then Milan again made a huge mistake and gave the second goal to Real. Then Milan was still the better attacker, that is a bad sign for Real. Of course it is too early in the season but there can be some signs about the whole season. Then Modric was being Modric and he again made an amazing assist. Although a good-looking win on paper, I think there were bad signs for Real.

Nah Joselu didn't doing anything for Real Madrid, Valverde solo carrying Real Madrid to win in this match. Yeah AC Milan's goalkeeper performed really awful, but this is not their main goalkeeper, their main goalkeeper is Mike Maignan.

As we can see the Real Madrid's goalscorers are Vinicius and Valverde, I think it will be always like this when the La Liga started.

After all, Joselu only played in the first half and it seems, in the first half the composition of the Real Madrid squad was also not very good. That way, Real Madrid also lost 2-0 in the first half and yes, I think the result in the first half shows that Real Madrid did not play well. Playing in the second half, Real Madrid played more seriously by including or playing better players. It really paid off, because Real Madrid also managed to score three goals in the second half. But even so, I personally still do not make the match a benchmark for Real Madrid performance next season and I am sure, Joselu will be able to play even better in the real match later.

I would be calling it as amazing thing to happen for real madrid. I don't have big expectation from madrid to mbappe at this moment. The club didn't even try to contact PSG regarding mbappe's price. That being said that if real madrid has zero interest for mbappe.
There are so many fake news being made related to this rumor. Anyone shall not randomly believe in any news about him. Mbappe will not go to the madrid till next year.

None from madrid even clarrified that if madrid would like to pay PSG with a non sense price like that. The case of mbappe is going to the new round by involving more parties. You can see that how this problem becomes very complicated at this moment.
Everything is still remain uncertain at this moment. mbappe is trying to defend his position in the club but PSG doesn't wanna see mbappe to stay in the club.

A competitive match to watch, it was filled with actions from both parties. In the game against AC Milan, Los Blancos staged a comeback. They won 3-2 in their first preseason game. All credit goes to Fede Valverde, who scored a brace in the second half to tie the game. Following that, in the 84th minute, Luka Modric delivered a crucial long cross that dropped straight away in front of Vinicius Jnior, a speedster who surpassed the defender and hit a terrific kick towards the goalie, Marco Sportiello couldn't get a grasp of the ball. A decisive goal that changed the game's outcome.

[jakdanyel]

Antoine Griezmann signing must be one of the biggest regrets for Barcelona. He signed for Barcelona for a transfer fee like 120 million euros 4 years ago. I think it was a quite risky transfer for Barcelona as well due to paying that high amount for him. He really couldn't meet the expectations exactly.

His best season was the 2020/21 one but after that Barcelona decided to loan him to Atletico Madrid. Now Atletico Madrid have signed him for only 20 million euros. I know he is 32 years old now but this was still not the ideal journey for him at Barcelona.

Last season he was really impressive with 15 goals and 17 assists in the La Liga. He fits Atletico Madrid the best so I'm glad to see him back there.

I see that Real Madrid have given nearly all the players a chance to play in the game against Milan. But I didn't see Arda Guler entering the game as well. I wish Ancelotti gave him a chance too. This is a friendly in the end. It is the best chance to see all your players on the pitch. Arda is one of their new transfers so he should have also been in the game.

Hopefully we can see him in their next game. Because he is praised quite much and he has really nice skills too. If he gets chances already now and shows a satisfying performance it would have a positive affect on his playing time during the season too.

As far as I know, Arda Güler has a slight injury. I was also curious about his performance in the match and was surprised to see that he did not play. That's what they said in the news, because they didn't want to risk Arda, he didn't play in this match.
In fact, it is very important for him to take part in matches with such good teams, so he will gain experience

[Litzki1990]

It would also be great if Neymar stayed at PSG, because he might still be able to help PSG next season along with some of the new players that PSG have signed this summer. In addition, with Neymar staying at PSG, of course the PSG team will not be weak next season if the players can be compact enough to carry out the instructions from their coach. I also hope that PSG can become very strong next season so that the PSG team can provide quite fierce competition in the Champions League next season.

After all, the issue of Neymar return to Barcelona will certainly not become a reality. Because anyway, Neymar also still has an expensive fee and of course, Barcelona will also not be able to fulfill his wishes. Also, at this moment there are no strong rumors about Neymar departure from PSG although maybe, Neymar is linked to play in the Saudi Professional League I think it is also just a rumor. So yes, in any case next season Neymar will still play at PSG and thus, will be closer to the end of his contract at PSG at the age of 31 years now.

Neymar is not returning to Barcelona. He left that part of his career far behind himself. And how can Barcelona afford Neymar? They are in financial trouble right now. Affording Neymar is a dream for Barcelona right now. Neymar seems to be ready to leave PSG. I didn't know if Neymar will play in Saudi League or not. If he does end up going to the Saudi League, he will be ending his career without actually being able to unlock his true potential. He is getting old. But I believe he still has a lot to offer to any top-level club. The only problem and probably the biggest problem for him is probably his injury situation.

Neymar's return to Barcelona was a false rumour, Barcelona manager Xavi has confirmed. When asked about Neymar, he said that he knows nothing about Neymar and that his club has no plans in this regard, which means that it is clear from his statement that Neymar is not returning to Barcelona. Before the transfer market started, there were many rumors that Neymar might leave PSG and join Manchester United but we are not seeing anything like that from Manchester United. I think PSG's decision may have changed after new manager Luis Enrique took charge of PSG, they may now want to keep Neymar under Luis Enrique. PSG may have something else in their plans. PSG may be thinking that since Mbappe won't be at the club, Neymar should be kept at the club.

Bellingham need time to get use to the team, man literally was running up and down and couldn't make a God conversation for more than 64 minutes, even when Anceloti made a batch substitution of players with the main squad, he was left inside to unleash his full potential and impress Real Madrid fans but nothing came out of it until Valverde score two goals in the space of two minutes before Anceloti realizes that he is of no use again and remove him as the last guy that was substituted out of the match and just like magic, Vinicious added an extra goal to give Real Madrid lead ahead of Milan, this was a friendly match but so serious like a competition of a league.

Carlo Ancelotti give chance for all players exactly with new signing get first minutes play, almost them need time for adapting and Joselu have to show his capacity as Real Madrid's foward.

I haven't quite see if Madrid has transform, the players that were started by Anceloti didn't make too much chances not until the main squad like Mode, Rudiger, Rodrigo, Vinicious, Valverde came in and they just the regular players he had and were the ones that transformed the match later, I doubt if this is enough to kick start the season without good forward, Bellingham is average in my opinion.

The logical thing for Anceloti does not include Arda Giper in the match if reasoned in the same injury, even though it is a minor injury, but indeed if forced to fear it will get worse and make his new player down before entering the new season, maybe he trains hard enough so he is injured.
This young player is still in the stage of adjusting to the exercises given by Anceloti, but honestly I am also very waiting for his appearance on the gridiron against the big team of AC Milan.

The friendly match between AC Milan and Real Madrid is quite fierce in the early matches, and in the first round Real Madrid was completely depressed until they were 0-2 by AC Milan, but in the second half Madrid played better at the beginning, until they closed the backwardness and focused the match with a score of 3-2 for Real Madrid.
Although this is a friendly match but this match is quite exciting to watch.

Real Madrid continue to train comebacks  To win 3-2 after the score was 2-0 in favor of the opponent is "nothing special" for them 
This is probably a good result for Milan too, because with all due respect, Real and Milan are now at different levels. Of course, this is all taking into account the fact that friendly games do not mean much and do not differ much from internal training games.

Bellingham need time to get use to the team, man literally was running up and down and couldn't make a God conversation for more than 64 minutes, even when Anceloti made a batch substitution of players with the main squad, he was left inside to unleash his full potential and impress Real Madrid fans but nothing came out of it until Valverde score two goals in the space of two minutes before Anceloti realizes that he is of no use again and remove him as the last guy that was substituted out of the match and just like magic, Vinicious added an extra goal to give Real Madrid lead ahead of Milan, this was a friendly match but so serious like a competition of a league.

Although the results of this match were quite positive, in my opinion Ancelotti will not be easily satisfied and indeed, if you look at the attacking scheme of the midfield line, it has not been as effective as many people expected. This will be quite an enjoyable process for Ancelotti troops where several players, one of which is Bellingham first performance, did not show anything different. By having enough time he can adapt because it is only a matter of time, little by little we will see.

It should not be forgotten that this is a preparatory tournament. We see that neither the teams nor the players fully increase their performance in the friendly matches. In addition, Milan and Real Madrid changed almost all their players during the match. That's why they played with different field combinations. In the second half Real Madrid took the win with Valverde and Vini. I will be watching the next friendly game with interest.

I hope so. I consider his age is still very young at this moment as a professional football player. Bellingham has some good mentors, even kroos hope if bellingham will not be ended like hazard. At least his contribution is far better compared with joselu to the club.
Joselu needs time to be even better. He was not able getting a good position as a striker. valverde and vini were taking his job to make real madrid win the game against acmilan. Joselu's performance is still far from what we expected before.
It's very good to see that bellingham looks so easy to adapt with the play style of real madrid at this moment. Joselu is still remain the problem at this moment. I hope he can perform better next match.
Ancelotti praises bellingham's performance but not for joselu.

Ancelotti is still looking for the right formation for his squad and in this pre-season match he gave all the main players a chance to play first. Real Madrid successfully beat AC Milan with a score of 3-2 even though the match was quite tough. The performance of Ancelotti's men also still needs to be evaluated, especially the attack line which still wastes a lot of opportunities and cannot convert them into goals.

I really enjoyed the match and Jude Bellingham performed well and so did Joselu, but in that match both players needed to adapt again because there were still some weaknesses. Federico Valverde and Vinicius were outstanding in Real Madrid's first pre-season game.

[Sebas.tian]

I think, Barcelona will soon loose their peace to sign in more potential players that will help them to maintain that first position in the la Liga league competition next season, so that their coach will experience another honor from the fans again. If Barcelona coach can release money to bring Kylian Mbappe in this summer, I think, Real Madrid or other strong teams will not challenge Barcelona next season because their defensive and midfield is very strong for their strikers to achieve many goals in this season. Since Karim Benzema has left Real Madrid to another team and kylian Mbappe manager is not willing to release him to Real Madrid, show that Real Madrid will still face the Same challenges they experienced last season.

It will take time for Bellingham to perform at his best with Real Madrid, that will definitely be in line with the plans built by his coach next season. It's not easy to get a new player to immediately perform at their best in 1-2 matches, but sometimes they need half a season for the adaptation process.

I think Bellingham will have a good season at Real Madrid even though he is new, but of course he needs good support from his team-mates. Real Madrid certainly expect him to do well and contribute a lot to the team next season, but it's important to see him improve.
