La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

I am not surprised if he accepts the offer from Al Nassr because I am taking into account his current positions in A Madrid and France. His career recovers in A Madrid but he no longer belongs to best players in Europe. The same in French team as despite of his contributions for the team, the captain arm band was given to Mbappe. Generally Griezman is old too and like Mane, Henderson or Fabinho, nothing is wrong if Griezman takes advantage of last seasons in his career to play in Saudi Arabia and get more money.

When a player like Griezman begins to see competition in the European arena getting more and more difficult and many young players appear to attract attention, of course for him getting an offer from the Saudi Arabian club makes even more sense. In Europe, Griezman has proven to be the best player, but in the future there is absolutely no guarantee. Now, by looking at the situation and conditions in Europe, which are getting narrower, Griezman has to think realistically because somehow the opportunity to shine again is quite rare. Griezman only needs to make peace with the situation at the club or indeed make a decision to go to the Arab League immediately.

Real Madrid need to work things out up front before the new competition starts, they haven't found a quality striker after Benzema left. The negative results obtained in pre-season matches and the decreased number of goals scored by players operating on the front lines required Real Madrid to immediately improve in order to make up for these deficiencies.
If Real Madrid don't immediately solve the problem on the front lines, it will be difficult for them to compete with Barcelona who are increasingly solid on every. Barcelona strength has increased after successfully bringing in players who operate in positions left by players whose contracts expired last season.

Their search for the new striker is going on but sadly right now they are not able to secure Mbappé because they have no enough funds for this transfer even we all understand this transfer can bring big booster for them, and they can go hot favorite for the double again because their quality and performance is impressive but after exit of Karim Benzema they are missing goal's conversation trick which is not filling.

Mostly we were feeling Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappé are under their radar, but sadly both are not in their finances range with no other quality option available which is also a problem. As things are going right now if something special happen then surely this could be one of the best for them but most chances they have to wait for the next season to bring things on their track chances of going into top is hard but still achievable.

Karim Benzema means more to Madrid than just being a striker. He might haven't scored too much, but his impact on the team's attack is undeniable. However, there's no player Madrid couldn't replace, especially with the pool of young talent they have. Now they need is a goal-scoring striker who score goals. Though a replacement is possible, but there's a significant gap between a good striker and a truly exceptional one.
During the pre-season tour, Real Madrid is looking quite different and weak side. Of-course just friendly matches, not official ones. As new season around the corner, there's hope and expectation for improvement.

You are right, Karim Benzema was not just a scorer. He has played an important role in the overall performance of the team. He used to support the players. At the same time, Madrid's young players would have been more confident if Benzema was in the squad. They get motivated to perform better. At the same time, if Benzema was in the squad, the bond between the Madrid forward and the midfield would have been stronger. This is why replacing Karim Benzema is not easy. Ancelotti needs to add talented players to the squad, as well as bring about changes in match tactics.

I think it would have been better if Benzema had stayed at Madrid this year. After Benzema left Madrid, Madrid could not find a quality player to replace him. They transferred Joselu, but I don't believe he will fill that void. It could be a very good example for young players.

It would certainly be great for Madrid if Benzema stays with Madrid this season. But Benzema knows very well, if Madrid gets a suitable replacement for Benzema, then Madrid would throw Benzema away. And so Benzema did not take any risk. He has received good offers from Saudi clubs. This is why he is with the club in Saudi Arabia.
It is difficult to find a suitable replacement for Benzema. Joselu is really talented. There is no doubt about it. Because in the last season he was third in the list of goal scorers of La Liga. He is quite talented. However, he may not be able to contribute to Real Madrid's performance like Benzema. However, if he adapts to the Madrid squad, he can contribute to the stability of Madrid's performance.

Yes indeed, and what is very unlucky for Griezmann is also about. It seems that Griezmann has also never felt or experienced winning the La Liga title despite the fact, Griezmann played for Atletico and also Barcelona but until now Griezmann has never felt lifting the La Liga trophy. Thus, it can be assumed that although Griezmann is one of the best players but in reality, Griezmann is not as lucky as other great players who have the highest achievement in winning the La Liga title. Also, Griezmann contract at Atletico is basically still quite long until 2026 and of course, playing at Atletico until his contract expires is not the right decision. Because anyway, if it is true that Griezmann gets an offer to play in the Saudi Pro League, then of course it will be a pretty good career end with a lot of money.

Yes, Griezmann is something like talented player, but you know he is not a someone like regular scorer. I can see he still managed to pull 15 goals in La Liga previous season with Atletico Madrid, also 38 appearances in La Liga. I have to say that he really played decent enough but if you look at his age he is currently near around 33 years old.

So I have to agree that he has played really well with Atletico Madrid, But I have doubts about his ability for playing with bigger club in the future. And so if Griezmann gets an offer of big wages from a Saudi club, I think he should go to Saudi.  He can earn a lot of money from Saudi clubs. It is really good that at 33 years old Griezmann's fitness is quite smooth, so I think he can easily play 2/3 more seasons in La Liga.

Currently the best teams in La Liga are Barcelona and Real Madrid. But comparatively Barcelona team is ahead in great form. On the other hand, Benzema's place in the Real Madrid team is looking great.

Barcelona strength has increased after successfully bringing in players who operate in positions left by players whose contracts expired last season.

Seriously, I was expecting Real Madrid to sign Mbbape or one smart striker that will replace Benzema before the next season starts, but currently, I don't think they have the intention to sign any new striker because they're not currently talking about bringing any striker before their domestic league starts. If we have to check their preseason performances, Real Madrid have nothing left except that striking power, because despite their efforts to play good football by always controlling the pitch in preseason games, their scoring abilities are seriously weak. Let's use the Juventus match as an example, where Real Madrid are almost eight short on target but are only able to score one goal, which is really a bad, weak front line. So with all the defeats in preseason, I expected Real Madrid to do something about signing a new striker.

Barcelona only got back to good last season because Real Madrid wasn't so consistent in winning matches, whereas previous seasons Barcelona didn't look as good as last season. So in general Barcelona are just trying to look good and that was what Barcelona managed to get last season, but for next season Barcelona still has to fight hard to be able to look even better because Real Madrid will also try to be better in La Liga and so also at UCL.

I agree with your opinion, so it's true that the rivalry of the two best teams from La Liga next season will be eagerly awaited. Real Madrid have lost their best striker to the Arab Pro League, so they will have problems to sort out if they are to win the title next season. While Barcelona has a many strikers, so I don't really think about their performance dropping despite losing Dembele to PSG.

The competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid will be highly anticipated because Real Madrid has yet to find a striker to replace Benzema. Although Real Madrid have signed Joselu so far, he does not appear to be the right answer to replace Benzema well. So I think next season is a good opportunity for Lewandowski if he still wants to maintain his top scoring streak in La Liga.

Joselu to substitute Benzema then statistically will be much different. Especially when compared to Lewandowski as opposed to rivals from Barcelona but we never know how Joselu on the pitch with Real Madrid at least he can see as a striker who has to replace Benzema and it is not an easy task for Joselu but I hope he finds the best way with Real Madrid.

I know that Real Madrid will not be coming for another striker unless they wait for Mbappe to come next season, so maybe that will be the next priority even though Mbappe is not the right one in the central striker position.

So the two great La Liga teams Barcelona and Real Madrid will be very competitive again in La Liga, especially the Champions League.

[KTChampions]

Griezmann is not a "fresh" signing for Atlético, it's just that he was initially on loan with an option to renew and buy. It is a pity that he did not find a better option than Atlético, where he has a conflict with Simeone and where, due to the style of play, he cannot fully reveal his talent.

But he is the very same person who did so well under the same coach in his early years at Atlético Madrid until the thought of getting more money fucked up everything, and he ended up in Barcelona. He has never been the same again.

If he goes to Saudi Arabia, it will also be sad.

I guess he will be very happy since more money is there since his current football form is now a shadow of its past  

But at the World Cup, Griezmann was consistently the best/one of the best in the French team (not the weakest team in the tournament  ). I don't think the money ruined him, rather the wrong team for him. It seems to me that Atlético will continue to degrade and it is unlikely that he will be able to resist this trend. And by the way, judging by the scandal over the captaincy in the French national team, Griezmann is interested not only in money - he still has sports ambitions. If he was only interested in money, he would have endured the appointment of Mbappe and not got involved in a scandal from which it was impossible to emerge victorious.

Carlo Ancelotti may change his game plan. After Benzema left the team, they didn't look for a center forward to replace Benzema. In truth, they don't have many alternatives to make such a transfer, but they haven't even looked for any. As for the Mbappe transfer, which is often claimed in the press, they have always pointed to next season. It's a really interesting situation. I think they will make a surprise and transfer Mbappe to Real Madrid this summer transfer window. According to the current situation, I think they will either make a tactical change or they will make a sudden move and transfer Mbappe.

After Benzema departure, Real Madrid sign Joselu as center forward and possibility for Carlo Ancelotti change scheme if Joselu underperform, still has Rodrygo will move as center forward but depend with Joselu performance will answer public expectation for replacing Karim Benzema position or not. Current performance in pre season match, I don't see Joselu has quit well perform and he still needs time for adapting with Carlo Ancelotti scheme. If can't sign Mbappe in this summer transfer window, Real Madrid must signing new center forward for partner or competitor to Joselu because on center forward Real Madrid has one option only right now.

Have bad rumor with Mbappe transfer, PSG have been report to UEFA about illegal transfer from Real Madrid reached personal verbal agreement with Mbappe will join on next transfer window as free agent.

As things are going right now if something special happen then surely this could be one of the best for them but most chances they have to wait for the next season to bring things on their track chances of going into top is hard but still achievable.

Actually, Real Madrid still needs Benzema in their squad, the club has tried to keep Benzema with a new one-year contract offer. But before a new agreement was made between Benzema and Real Madrid, an offer from Al-Ittihad came, Benzema could not refuse this offer because Al-Ittihad brought a proposal with a fantastic salary offer. The salary offered by Al-Ittihad is, of course, many times higher than that received at Real Madrid, this opportunity is certainly not wasted by Benzema, especially as he is almost retired.

Benzema departure has left a big hole in the position of Real Madrid striker, until now Real Madrid has not found a suitable replacement to fill Benzema position. Joselu was only used as a temporary alternative considering that Real Madrid brought him on loan. Real Madrid needs to move faster to find a talented striker before the season starts. The results obtained by Real Madrid in friendly matches do not guarantee that Real Madrid will be able to compete in the Champions League and La Liga. Besides having to bring in a striker, Real Madrid will need to rearrange their defense.

So the two great La Liga teams Barcelona and Real Madrid will be very competitive again in La Liga, especially the Champions League.

For whatever reason Joselu cannot be compared to Benzema and I think that perspective has to make sense. Therefore, Real Madrid needs to face a new future with a set of players. We cannot continuously compare the good and bad performance of Madrid when Benzema was still around because that period was over. Agreed

Back to the competition between the 2 big clubs Barcelona and Madrid, so far Barcelona has had a squad that is more stable both in terms of strategy and squad depth which can have more potential to win the La Liga trophy. Meanwhile, Madrid is in a transitional phase, considering the condition experienced by Barcelona last season. It takes time to find a match for each other so it's not surprising that Madrid's appearance will look less stable.

It is not as if Barcelona were only lucky to win Bundesliga last season because Real Madrid were not in good form, Barcelona were able to achieve success too because of the coach who was able to revive the team and the players in the team work very hard to make good performance.  Barcelona didn't just have advantage of Real Madrid poor performance but they also work hard. During the early time in last season Real Madrid were still doing well in their games but they still couldn't make much points than Barcelona even by then , which mean Barcelona have always been ready to win the league last season.

[LUCKMCFLY]

What you say are big statements, but I think Something needs to be highlighted here, Messi is a football genius, there is no doubt about it , he has an incredible vision of the game , he makes his passes and as you say, he reads the game an enormous speed and makes others understand his style of play, that's why he was born with that talent, and When you are born with talent you only need to exploit it , unlike CR7 that he has worked hard to achieve all his life his technique and his way of playing, I see that Mesi doesn't even care about his age to play, but CR7 does , in fact these two men left Europe because of the bad treatment they were given at one point, both Messi and CR7 had a hard time times because of their clubs, fans, among others, so this is not being well valued despite the things they have done to us when they show their game , and it is a pity that Messi has left, but you have to fully blame the PSG, he said it , spent two very long years being unhappy and not to mention what CR7 passed at MU.

I don't like reveling in the past and that is why I find it difficult to grant a player extra freedom or excuse mistakes because they played good in the past.

The thing with Messi at PSG was that they booed at him when he actually was the best scorer in Ligue 1 and only on the last game day or so Mbappe got one more scoring point I think (goals + assists). Shouting somebody down who is the second best or the best scorer of the league is quite stupid and Messi always had his actions in games that were genius. Essentially in every game, but most of the crowd couldn't see it.

Ronaldo suffered from his own arrogant behavior at Manchester United. You can fly high when you are arrogant but good at what you do, meaning when you score all the time and that is what he did for Real Madrid. It wasn't possible to shout him down because he scored the goals the team needed. This changed at Manchester United (2nd term). Ronaldo dropped in performance, but still behaved as if he was the king. Even worse, he still claimed it and behaved like it. Unlike Messi, who also gave away penalties and free kicks and some of the chance he would have taken on his own, knowing that his stats might be a little worse but it is good for the team spirit.

Respecting these players for what they have done is one thing and you are right about that, but when they play worse or bad, then they deserve the same criticism as everyone else for as long as they themselves want to play highly competitive soccer.

Messi also adapted a lot over time, which I liked about him and showed that he is a very intelligent player, not trying the same stuff he did with 23 years of age, but playing even smarter with more intelligent and deadly passes and small movements.

I will miss the most dangerous Barcelona there ever was when Messi peaked for the first time. That team was crazy. Sometimes it almost looked like a computer game and felt unfair towards the opponent.

Yes, I know what you mean, in the case of these two players it was something that each one had their mistakes, but more than anything we should make a break and say, which players are currently close to their level? Mbappé, Haaland? I don't think any of them, Mbappé would have silenced me if he had won the World Cup against Messi, there I don't say anything and even one dares to say that the best between Mbappé and Messi was Mbappé, but it was not like that, this player in the middle of everything He still likes to mature a lot, the case of CR7, well he has his personality that is sometimes somewhat "capricious", and somewhat irritating, but later if one starts to see how they are in real life, what do they do, well, the things change, because both Meis and he are great people who help a lot, they are good people, so there are times when in football things are only seen as on cameras, in real life these players have their problems , they spend their lives bad times as well as good times good as us in our life , only they are very Famous.

The competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid will be highly anticipated because Real Madrid has yet to find a striker to replace Benzema. Although Real Madrid have signed Joselu so far, he does not appear to be the right answer to replace Benzema well. So I think next season is a good opportunity for Lewandowski if he still wants to maintain his top scoring streak in La Liga.

Joselu to substitute Benzema then statistically will be much different. Especially when compared to Lewandowski as opposed to rivals from Barcelona but we never know how Joselu on the pitch with Real Madrid at least he can see as a striker who has to replace Benzema and it is not an easy task for Joselu but I hope he finds the best way with Real Madrid.

I know that Real Madrid will not be coming for another striker unless they wait for Mbappe to come next season, so maybe that will be the next priority even though Mbappe is not the right one in the central striker position.

So the two great La Liga teams Barcelona and Real Madrid will be very competitive again in La Liga, especially the Champions League.

In fact, things in Madrid tend to be quite hard when it comes to forwards, it is clear that Benzema left a very big hole, as similar as Lewa left him in Bayern, I hope this does not affect him too much, because now things are Madrid are moving to another level, I think Joselu is a great option, no one is indispensable in any team, Real Madrid has Vinicius, they have Rodrygo, they have to adapt with what they have, I can't deny that Madrid has a problem because they want the perfect replacement for Benzema, they initially wanted Mbappé, or that is what many say and affirm, but as I said, Mbappé has already lost his opportunity, and do you really believe that Mbappé is going to come next season?

I have seen a lot of information on some social networks, of course, I know it could be fake, some say that they have secretly discussed deals with Mbappé to take him to Madrid, which I don't believe, others say that everything is ready, they already have Mbappé and that they will present it, others say that PSG will sue Madrid for making deals with Mbappé, that this is not allowed, that kind of gossip for me is all a lie.

Real Madrid is a team that doesn't have the luxury of doing things wrong, they might want Mbappé, but it must be emphasized that he let his opportunity go to waste at first, these kinds of things are what he shouldn't forget, Also things as they are, he preferred PSG when Madrid was going to pay for him, now Madrid wants him for free on transfer, this means that this player is not so valued, that he has a large depreciation for the white team.

On the other hand:

PSG’s Luis Enrique wants to field Kylian Mbappé

Newly-appointed Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique is uneasy with Kylian Mbappé’s (24) forced exile from the senior squad, according to a report this Saturday from RMC Sport.

The French publication understands that the Spaniard knew he had to deal with the France skipper’s inextricable contractual conundrum. Mbappé is entering his final year of contract with Les Parisiens. The club’s all-time record goalscorer has, so far, shown no indication he’d like to extend his deal with PSG or leave the club, in order to provide the Ligue 1 champions a commendable transfer fee. RMC Sport adds that Luis Enrique “really wants” to see Mbappé play with his team.

Source: https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2023/psgs-luis-enrique-wants-to-field-kylian-mbappe/

It is rare that a coach like Luis Enrique wants to have the player, well he knows what Mbappé's level is like and he needs a player to guarantee victories, I don't know, but in this case the player should accept that he himself missed the opportunity to go to Madrid, this is where I say that things can get heavy when bad decisions are made, it is not good because there will always be regrets, in another instance, it could be said that if Mbappé stays with Ney at PSG they could still do great things This cannot be denied, of course, here Mbappé has to be a little more receptive and get along with Ney, Mbappé is very good, the bad thing is his ego.

Real Madrid has not given many advances regarding this player, they know that things were made clear to the player, and those of us from Madrid know that Madrid does not give second chances to any player , because no player is Above of the Club.

Currently the best teams in La Liga are Barcelona and Real Madrid. But comparatively Barcelona team is ahead in great form. On the other hand, Benzema's place in the Real Madrid team is looking great.

Barcelona only got back to good last season because Real Madrid wasn't so consistent in winning matches, whereas previous seasons Barcelona didn't look as good as last season. So in general Barcelona are just trying to look good and that was what Barcelona managed to get last season, but for next season Barcelona still has to fight hard to be able to look even better because Real Madrid will also try to be better in La Liga and so also at UCL.

It is not as if Barcelona were only lucky to win Bundesliga last season because Real Madrid were not in good form, Barcelona were able to achieve success too because of the coach who was able to revive the team and the players in the team work very hard to make good performance.  Barcelona didn't just have advantage of Real Madrid poor performance but they also work hard. During the early time in last season Real Madrid were still doing well in their games but they still couldn't make much points than Barcelona even by then , which mean Barcelona have always been ready to win the league last season.

What I would like to see from Barcelona is that if they are leveling up, it is not 'because they only beat Real Madrid, they have to win everything, it is not possible that they only beat Real Madrid and let themselves win a Europa League and they lose practically everything, they won the League, I think that because Madrid was more focused on playing and winning the UCL, however they neglected the League, they were already classified, but what they were looking for was the UCL, however it was not given to them, now Barcelona has everything to be the best team, for me they have a very good squad, they have Lewa who didn't want to leave, they have to take advantage of it.

I always liked how Xavi played in Barcelona along with Iniesta and Messi, he wants to do something similar to those golden years where they and dinho were, something that team won everything, really at that time no team could measure up to him, They had a high level, however things cannot be repeated now, they do not have Messi and his strategy is totally different.

[Frankolala]

Griezmann didn't have regular time in barcelona. He decided to leave from there and joined in atletico madrid again.
Griezmann was trying to make sure if he will able to play regularly and he got what he wants. No sense reason for him to leave from atletico madrid.

If he wants to play football with love and enjoy it, does not care much about money, no reason to leave A Madrid but it's reasonable if he leave A Madrid as I explained my thinking below.

I hope Griezmann gonna reject an offer from al nassr. The club is still trying to approach him at this moment. It's likely that griezmann is gonna give the final answer as soon as possible.
Im waiting for the news from him. I kinda feel bad if he decides to leave from atletico to join in al nassr.

I am not surprised if he accepts the offer from Al Nassr because I am taking into account his current positions in A Madrid and France. His career recovers in A Madrid but he no longer belongs to best players in Europe. The same in French team as despite of his contributions for the team, the captain arm band was given to Mbappe. Generally Griezman is old too and like Mane, Henderson or Fabinho, nothing is wrong if Griezman takes advantage of last seasons in his career to play in Saudi Arabia and get more money.

We don't know what Greizeman decision will be based on his current position in A.Madrid.He might decide to use this opportunity to go for money since other big players have also gone to SPL. I wouldn't be surprise to see if he moves down to Al-Nassr since only him can understand why he took such decision.

On the other hand if he feels that he is cool in A.Madrid and don't need money but wants to play with quality players in various leagues,then he will stay back. I believe that it isn't every play that will jump to SPL just for fat pay.

Currently the best teams in La Liga are Barcelona and Real Madrid. But comparatively Barcelona team is ahead in great form. On the other hand, Benzema's place in the Real Madrid team is looking great.

Barcelona only got back to good last season because Real Madrid wasn't so consistent in winning matches, whereas previous seasons Barcelona didn't look as good as last season. So in general Barcelona are just trying to look good and that was what Barcelona managed to get last season, but for next season Barcelona still has to fight hard to be able to look even better because Real Madrid will also try to be better in La Liga and so also at UCL.

Im sure barcelona made some significant improvements. Madrid was losing in the previous match against barcelona. This result is far better compared with last season. Barcelona needs to reach UCL level. some great players already bought by the club but i think that the thing that's gonna make it differ compared with last season shall be on the winger. barcelona had dembele last season which has been contributing a lot but it's gonna be different next season as barcelona has no dembele. Playing without dembele gonna make a lot of impact on the winger of barcelona.

Let's see who's gonna be a replacement for dembele. As far as i know that if barcelona is still having raphinha but i can't expect him to play as good as dembele last season.

Will barcelona have different performance to play without dembele? I wonder how xavi gonna try to solve that problem.

The competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid will be highly anticipated because Real Madrid has yet to find a striker to replace Benzema. Although Real Madrid have signed Joselu so far, he does not appear to be the right answer to replace Benzema well. So I think next season is a good opportunity for Lewandowski if he still wants to maintain his top scoring streak in La Liga.

Joselu to substitute Benzema then statistically will be much different. Especially when compared to Lewandowski as opposed to rivals from Barcelona but we never know how Joselu on the pitch with Real Madrid at least he can see as a striker who has to replace Benzema and it is not an easy task for Joselu but I hope he finds the best way with Real Madrid.

I know that Real Madrid will not be coming for another striker unless they wait for Mbappe to come next season, so maybe that will be the next priority even though Mbappe is not the right one in the central striker position.

So the two great La Liga teams Barcelona and Real Madrid will be very competitive again in La Liga, especially the Champions League.

If Real Madrid does not bring in a striker to replace Benzema this season, I think Barcelona will crush them again like last time. Real Madrid has revealed a gap when missing the number 9 striker. Joselu is just a temporary solution for the club. With this gap in attack, I believe Kane or Mbappe can fill it. Real Madrid seems to be waiting to buy a cheap star, undecided which striker to target.
As for Lewandowski, stay in shape. Next season promises titles for him when Real Madrid has not exploded any more blockbusters in attack.
