La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[hahay]

I hope Barcelona solves the existing financial problems to strengthen the squad more. Otherwise it is hard to compete with Real Madrid.

This is not easy, because currently Barcelona no longer has mega star players like Messi, Neymar and others. The only way for Barcelona to have good finances and solved all of their financial problem is to sell the club to a rich businessman, for example from Saudi Arabia. With this way, all of Barcelona debts can be paid off. However, if it only relies on sponsors, broadcasts, jerseys/merchandise, tickets, I don't think it will be enough to solve their financial problems in the near future.

I agree, even if Barcelona manage to get a treble winner, the reality is that Barcelona will still have financial problems because the debt Barcelona has is very large. So yes,I agree with the option of selling the club itself, because ifBarcelona continue to do the efforts they have done so far, then ofcourse Barcelona will not only be difficult to win trophies, butBarcelona will also be difficult to have mega star players in the squad. Therefore,at least Barcelona might still be lucky to be in La Liga,because if Barcelona were in Serie A then Barcelona would most likely already have been punished.

He has definitely done a good job. I believe some big clubs are already thinking about him. there are a lot of big clubs which are facing bad performance recently. So I think he is going to be in demand. Maybe not in high demand but certainly going to be in demand in my opinion. Would actually love to see him be the new coach of another La Liga team and actually beat Barcelona when they meet. That would be hilarious.

Anyway, he has done a very decent job even though he did not have almost any amount of money in his hand. I understand that he did spend quite a lot of money towards the start. But at this day and age where you have to spend almost 100,000,000(hundred million)for a decent striker, he definitely did a good job. And I will say he did not spend that much money.

Xavi reputation during his time as Barcelona manager was said to be very good, his dismissal was truly a shame, where Barcelona situation in the future may not be better because the club is still facing a financial crisis. Hansi Flick has now been appointed as Xavi successor next season, he has been warned that Barcelona has a complicated situation, space to move will be limited because the club cannot fulfill all his wishes.

Meanwhile, one La Liga trophy and one Spanish Super Cup trophy are proof that Xavi has the capacity to coach other elite European clubs. I think Xavi will receive many offers. I think Xavi quality is above managers in general, where he was able to bring Barcelona to a trophy even though the club condition was unstable. If Xavi joins a club that is financially good, then Xavi chances of presenting a trophy will certainly be even greater.

The Premier League, Serie A or even the Saudi Pro League are good options to continue his managerial career, several teams were reportedly approaching Xavi. However, there is other news that says Xavi will rest for a while and spend time with his family. What is clear is that Xavi has proven himself to be a quality manager, the club that recruits him will definitely be lucky.

[rendravolt]

I hope Barcelona does that especially to sell De Jong. How could their club's finances be so messed up just to pay one player every week? If I'm not mistaken De Jong's salary for that week was 730k Euros and it was very unreasonable with his less consistent performance and frequent injuries making him the player with the highest salary at Barcelona.

It is possible that Hansi Flick should give advice to management to sell some of his players and he can target the players he needs in the squad. Because this is his first season managing Barcelona, ​​he will definitely be careful and not want to make a mistake. Full trust in him must be repaid by winning one trophy at least next season.

In this season, Frenkie de Jong had 20 appearance in La Liga and success scoring two goals although he most injury but success getting almost 50% appearance for this season. His contract left until June 2026 and getting two season later will stay with Barcelona and getting highest salary payment than other players. Recent Frenkie de Jong market values around 70 million euro and I doubt any teams will make offer on this price behind not consistent performance in this season.

I think Frankie de Jong future with Barcelona depend on Hansi Flick decision will give him space in his tactician or not for next season, Barcelona less option for holding midfielder and I sure new manager Hansi Flick priority for defending him next season if difficult to sign new players how Barcelona still face with financial problem.

So Barcelona will still be burdened by De Jong for another 2 years? this is absolutely crazy and will only cost the club more. Actually, there is still a team that wants to sign his contract, namely Manchester United, but it seems like Barcelona doesn't want to lose him and prefers to keep him with an exorbitant salary.

De Jong will still be Hansi Flick's first choice considering his role in the midfield is very important but in my opinion it is not a problem that arises from him and more about the salary being too large which means Barcelona is dying financially. Again, if there are other viable player options, I think Hansi Flick should help Barcelona release De Jong because this is very unhealthy for the club's finances and will be further eroded if it continues.

With this way, all of Barcelona debts can be paid off. However, if it only relies on sponsors, broadcasts, jerseys/merchandise, tickets, I don't think it will be enough to solve their financial problems in the near future.

Barcelona's increasingly worrying financial condition is the main problem at the club. In fact, according to Barcelona's former financial advisor, Marc Ciria, he said that Barcelona's debt is estimated at 3 billion euros. (Sourch) And that is a very large number. But maybe if in 2014-2015 this club had not mismanaged its finances then something like this would not have happened. At that time this team was too enthusiastic in bringing in lots of expensive players. And there are many other problems that make this club's financial problems worse. It was even reported that Xavi was fired because he revealed the club's financial crisis. But fortunately Barcelona has now managed to get the signature of a new coach by offering a salary that is not too large and below Xavi's salary. But I hope this club can recover, but it will take quite a long time. And perhaps selling the club is the last resort if things get worse.

[Jegileman]

Joselu is no longer young and even this season he didn't get a main place so when Mbappe comes later it's clear he will be left out, but I think Joselu is still needed by the team, to be a cover on the front line.

For the front line, I think Vinicius Jr and Mbappe can still be a partnership or play on the wing for one of them and indeed if you look at the quality I think anyone between these two players can play on the wing or in the middle and what is certain is Vinicius Jr and Mbappe's attacking instincts strong enough that I don't doubt them when playing up front.

Joselu should have already considered leaving the club after he saw the new players coming into the club and also should have envisioned that he’ll not be a regular player in the striking role again. He didn’t get enough playing time even in the concluded season, so he should know he won’t get now that more young and talented players have been brought in by the club. He should have gone back to his former club and continue there instead of staying here. I see him as a third choice striker not even a second choice if he stays back. Meanwhile, one will also think that since he’s no more a young player, he won’t get to be appreciated that much when he goes back to his former team. He did well to qualify Real Madrid to the finals, so they won’t want to dispose him just like that.

Xavi reputation during his time as Barcelona manager was said to be very good, his dismissal was truly a shame, where Barcelona situation in the future may not be better because the club is still facing a financial crisis. Hansi Flick has now been appointed as Xavi successor next season, he has been warned that Barcelona has a complicated situation, space to move will be limited because the club cannot fulfill all his wishes.

one of the things we have to believe is that Barcelona is a popular team and is part of the biggest team in La Liga, even though its financial situation is bad, Barcelona is still a popular team that always makes wise decisions for the future of its team.
perhaps many people were disappointed with the results of Xavi dismissal, who was replaced by Hansi Flick and most of the people who were disappointed would say that the news was bad for Barcelona future under Hansi Flick.
meanwhile, most people have not looked deeper into how Hansi Flick, who has been recognized as the best German team coach, was even recognized as the coach of Bayern Munich in the past, winning several titles including the UCL title.

it is impossible for Barcelona as a popular team which currently has financial weaknesses to make a bad decision and I am sure that even though Hansi Flick space for movement will be limited because Barcelona finances are bad, he will give the best for Barcelona with his very good experience, Hansi Flick most likely able to bring Barcelona to better achievements in several competitions.
let's give it a chance and see the results after officially becoming Barcelona coach and I'm sure there will be good improvements for Barcelona.

[Adams0001]

Barcelona failed to win the La Liga title during this season they couldn't get the results they wanted to get even after hiring the players they wanted to get. However, their coach Xavi tried to do his best for the team but still, it was not enough, and Barcelona in the end had to get him fired from the team.
But still, some players there like Lamine Yamal had epic performances during this season. We even know Lamine Yamal was the best player under 23 years old in La Liga during this season which is a great achievement for this player.

If not that Barcelona has some little challenge in the half of the tournament that made them to drop down for Real Madrid and Girona to take over the highest position in the la Liga league table, but Barcelona still tried their possible best to come up again to second position but there is no way to be ahead of Real Madrid. I think, Barcelona manager deserve a special reward from Barcelona management, because he has done a great job that made Barcelona players to turned to professional and talented players in this season. Yamal is a good player and he still have the hunger to perform excellently that made him to deserve the award, and I believe he will like to do more for other big teams that pay with high currency to search for him to join their team.

Yamal is talented and skilful i doesn't think Barcelona will release the boy to other club he will help to team very well and win many titles for the team next season, because I truest him xavi do well against the boy and is now a key player for Barcelona they can't do with him and am sure he will be in first eleven for Barcelona next season. Xavi play weak games before the season start and that make them perform terrible a make Girona and Real Madrid over take them, am really astonished when I watch Girona defeat real madrid for the second time again In the league competition home and away with a very clear space, Barcelona suddenly have severe concerns now they don't have enough key players in the team but they don't have steady money to sign new players to the clubs.

Let's see how the game will be next season since they have changed coach. I think he will do well and win some trophies for the team and make the fans believe in him. I don't see any wrong decisions that they take and sack Xavi in deserve it because he doesn't fear Barcelona finishing season without contributing in any small trophies and winning and they are suffering from financial difficulties.

[Antotena]

Joselu is a midfielder just like Bellingham but you know that Anceloti like to multitask his midfieldera anytime the forward aren't making enough contributions to break the defensive system of their opponent, that was how Joselu was used to penetrate Bayern Munich towards the end of their semi final when they were leading the match. I think that Anceloti will definitely knows how to make use of him by next season especially now that he has said he is going to retire in Real Madrid.

Benzema before the Saudi Arabia use to be a winger and was converted to striker, I think Anceloti might just have to convert one of them that has both left and right foot and then use the 3 of them as forward. It's going to be a fantastic mix and collaboration as this help strengthen Mbape relationship with the club and last longer than everyone would have envision.

[QueenVera]

Barcelona can at least finish in second place this season despite the finalcial trouble faced by the club. This is far preferable to seeing Barcelona than get nothing this season. Barcelona struggled in the middle of the season, but they can depart for good by finishing second place behind Real Madrid at the time. Barcelona deserved a lot of apreciations. them might be considered a very impressive achievement by Barcelona given the club's financial situation, which did not allow them to recruit the new player. Xavi has worked really hard to help Barcelona remain competitive in the La Liga. I believed Xavi deserved a spot to stay for another season, but Laporta refuses it. I think that barcelona shall able to perform better in the upcoming season. yet the final cial problem may still become the main issue owned by barcelona.

It is a pretty nasty thing from Laporta to sack xavi when he gives his best to the barcelona. I do not like laporta caused by this owner is making too many intervention.
Im wondering what's his target?

Xavi has been a good manager at the Spanish side, even though they've had some shaky situations, they've just found a way to cover up lapses and make necessary coverings to the loopholes. It's very much good that they were able to put in good effort regardless of what they lacked to good team building. Nonetheless, Xavi would have still done better than he's already done.

 Well, his days with the team were technically numbered and he's got some commendations which he definitely deserves. I don't know what to say about his intended replacement but all I'll say is Barcelona as a team has work to be done and I'd love to see the new Barcelona in seasons and games to come. It'll be very much important that Barcelona management tried their best to get a good replacement for Xavi and finding the best option for them would be a bit difficult. There are prospect options for them but they've got to be very careful in their choices.

 Considering Emery as a choice, he's got an improved record with Villa and normally, Villa and Barcelona's level can't be compared so it's safe to say that it'd be a bit different to manage Barcelona based on their range of players and level in football. Barcelona isn't a team to be taken as an experiment. They won't be able to bear loosing their value and pride just because of them trying to make use of a manager who's not really had very much experience in a big team. Although, EPL is competitive than the La Liga, so maybe there can be a little match in strategy.

Sevilla vs  Barcelona

In the last match of this season, Barcelona faced Sevilla today.   Barcelona should not lose the second place in the table even if they lose this match.   On the other hand, even if Sevilla win, they will not benefit much.   This match is not important for any team.

However, Barcelona will certainly want to please the fans.   Barcelona team will try their best to win. Moreover, Barcelona's past record against Sevilla is very good.   Barcelona team has managed to defeat Sevilla team in the last four matches.   Barcelona will want to win today's match as usual.   Even though it's Sevilla's home match, I consider Barcelona as the favourite. Because Sevilla team is not in good form this season. The team has lost in the last three matches.

Barcelona Football team won the match by doing 2 goals in comparison of 1 goal of  Sevilla football team. Sevilla team body language was not excellent and were looking disappointed because that match could not change their position on points table. They lose the match at the end, I knew that result of that match because Barcelona side is much stronger than Sevilla side . Sevilla should hard work on their faults, otherwise they will become a big loser because their Past performance is also not good and this match also depressed the team of Sevilla. Barcelona team gave  645 passes and in the comparison, Sevilla gave only 401 passes and Sevilla performance was bad in the whole match.

Real Madrid does not officially announce Mbappe’s transfer, because they are still resolving financial issues with PSG, the point is in the bonus that Mbappe received from PSG (€80 million), although at the beginning of the season when Mbappe was not training with the main team it should not have been paid, then paid and now expect that Real should compensate this bonus, and Real, of course, does not want to pay PSG anything because Mbappe is now a free agent.

But PSG also did not pay Mbappe’s salary and bonuses for several last months, which in general amount to approximately the same amount, and now lawyers are dealing with this issue.

According to rumors circulating, Real Madrid will officially announce Mbappe after the Champions League final.

Indeed, if we follow the drama of Mbappe's transfer in the last year, it really makes us dizzy, how could it not be that PSG owners still don't seem ready to lose Mbappe, everything has been done to keep Mbappe but in the end this season Real Madrid got Mbappe for free.

But it doesn't stop there, after Mbappe's free transfer status, PSG doesn't seem willing to let Mbappe go for free because PSG is still expecting compensation from Real Madrid. Now PSG's lawyers are trying to find a solution to the club's problems with Mbappe. Even though PSG has not paid Mbappe's April salary and February bonus and now PSG wants Real Madrid to pay a loyalty bonus of €80 million to Mbappe, Florentino Perez has refused.

So in conclusion, in my opinion, it seems that Nasser Al-Khelaïfi still cannot accept Mbappe leaving for free, so PSG continues to insist on asking Real Madrid for compensation.

Barcelona has officially appointed Hansi Flick as manager next season, this can be seen in the club social media posts and their official website. Xavi dismissal still leaves many question marks, in my opinion Xavi is still very worthy of being kept. I don't yet know the real reason for Xavi dismissal, because if the dismissal was based on Xavi comments regarding the club financial crisis, in my opinion it doesn't make sense. Because almost everyone who follows the La Liga competition certainly knows about the financial crisis that Barcelona is facing without Xavi explaining it, and Barcelona management decision this time is really careless.

Hansi Flick will need a lot of time to build a team according to his wishes, borrowing players from other clubs or recruiting free transfer players will be one of the options available. At the same time, Hansi Flick is being asked to surpass Real Madrid consistency, so that Barcelona can win the La Liga championship trophy next season. This will be a tough task, and perhaps one of the toughest ever undertaken while being a coach. However, it is possible that Hansi Flick has many ways to overcome this difficult situation, so that he can bring Barcelona to success next season.

It has not been officially announced, but I know that even real Mbappe wants to come to Real Madrid, but they need to clear all of the financial issues with PSG, and I am sure that Mbappe will not just start enjoying advantages when he comes to Real Madrid, so there will be a lot of adjustments that Mbappe must make. All of the prince's threats will be gone, and the young man will have reaped the benefits. And I do not blame Real Madrid for declining to pay. And I feel that is why they waited a little while so that if Mbappe is a free agent it will make things more easier to bring him in but one way or the other they will diffinatly come to an agreement. I believe that because the young man still wears the PSG insignia, there is no reason why they would refuse to pay him. They will eventually look for ways to find themselves.

Joselu will most likely lose his position as a striker because it seems like Mbappe is being prepared to fill that room. When Mbappe arrived, it was clearly impossible to create a situation where Mbappe and Vinicius Jr were fighting for position, and it was also impossible to shift Mbappe to the wing-back position. So the most feasible thing is to play Mbappe in the center of the front with a 4-3-3 formation which is also often played by Real Madrid.

It's nothing new for Real Madrid to play out that scenario because in the past Real Madrid once placed one of its world-class right players in the central midfielder position. At that time Real Madrid already had Figo who was always the main star on the right wing. So when Real Madrid signed Beckham, he had to be willing to play in the midfield, and it turns out he is quite good at playing in that position.

He's never had too much gamkes to play this season, he comes in whenever they're up for some squad rotations and stuff but it could to see that Real Madrid will remember him for something eventually whenever he leaves the club.
Not just Kylian but also Endrick who will be joining the club next season after a season long loan with the club.

They could still have Kylian Mbappe on the left, Vinicius Junior on the right and then Endrick right in the middle of them all. There'll definitely be creativity and goals scored.
It show how much of a squad player Figo was being able to make sacrifices and play wherever you like are asked issa big flex.

I haven't seen no post about Hansi Flick being appointed as head coach of the club Barcelona? I felt like they're finally in a safe hands when I came across the news.

Currently PSG is still in talks with Mbappe's lawyer regarding the payment of PSG's debt to Mbappe. Because it has been confirmed that Real Madrid does not want to pay the bonus that should be borne by PSG, there is a possibility that Mbappe will have to give up. However, it certainly cannot be that easy, because Mbappe is indeed entitled to the bonus promised by PSG. And it's true, why should Real Madrid have to pay the bonus promised by PSG itself. However, whether this problem continues or not, or maybe this is PSG's way of keeping Mbappe from leaving, what is certain is that Mbappe will still leave PSG.

Based on the latest release from the @FabrizioRomano account, Real Madrid will announce the release of Mbappe's deal to Real Madrid before Euro 2024. So, we'll just have to wait and see in the near future.

I haven't seen no post about Hansi Flick being appointed as head coach of the club Barcelona? I felt like they're finally in a safe hands when I came across the news.

how can you not read about the news that Hansi Flick has officially become Barcelona coach, it has been announced on the social media accounts of many newspapers.

I really like Hansi Flick's style of play, Barcelona really chose the right coach, Hansi Flick also said he would not try to buy players, he would use Barcelona's football academy, he said there was a lot of the best talent there instead of buying new players, Barcelona will again have a tough battle with Madrid next season.

Barcelona Football team won the match by doing 2 goals in comparison of 1 goal of  Sevilla football team. Sevilla team body language was not excellent and were looking disappointed because that match could not change their position on points table. They lose the match at the end, I knew that result of that match because Barcelona side is much stronger than Sevilla side .

Barcelona team gave  645 passes and in the comparison, Sevilla gave only 401 passes and Sevilla performance was bad in the whole match.

I was even surprised that Sevilla managed to finish in the 14th position because they literally was in their worst performance this season more especially in the champions league group stages. Sevilla lost a lot of matches they would have won on a normal basis and their performance this season was nothing to write home about because they performed so poorly. Sevilla used to fall between the 6 position in most of their seasons but all of a sudden everything began to change and I haven't really figured out what went wrong with the team, if they sold some of their key players I don't even know but hope they will prepare very well as against next season.

Sevilla game against Barcelona yesterday was mostly one sided as Barcelona dominated the match and had more goal possession but Sevilla was also putting some pressure had some good shots on target up to 6 shots but were just able to convert one after Robert Lewandowski scored in the 15th minutes of the first half and Sevilla's Y. En-Nesyri equalized in the 31' minutes  before Lopez scored the winning goal in the second half that sealed the win for Barcelona however Barcelona also made some good improvements towards the ending part of the season and we hope to see them do better next season.

[FanEagle]

Xavi basically not only gave them two cups in two seasons (one of them is league) but also showed them how Barcelona should be managed as well. Since Pep Guardiola who had great la masia graduates to win everything, no other manager provided their youth setup the respect that it deserves, meaning that no other manager ever brought this many young players to Barcelona to play, and I guarantee you that in Hansi Flicks time, we will see most of these kids just loaned out and get nothing as well.

In contrast, Xavi brought in so many players under age of 20 years, and that way he gained them value, if Barcelona wanted to sell them, they could make 100 even 200 million euros from selling their young stars, all thanks to Xavi.

Sevilla finished the league in the middle ranks. Barcelona finished the league in second place with this victory. They now have a new coach: Flinck. They will act with new strategies and we may see a big change in the team next year. In my opinion, they had a good year. They finished the season in second place. They were also good in the Champions League, but it didn't happen. Flinck should perform better than Xavi. Otherwise I don't think it will take too long.

Xavi basically not only gave them two cups in two seasons (one of them is league) but also showed them how Barcelona should be managed as well. Since Pep Guardiola who had great la masia graduates to win everything, no other manager provided their youth setup the respect that it deserves, meaning that no other manager ever brought this many young players to Barcelona to play, and I guarantee you that in Hansi Flicks time, we will see most of these kids just loaned out and get nothing as well.

Almost All the coaches that have managed Barcelona have one way the other have brought in players from the academy it’s just that some of this coaches couldn’t manage them well. Pep promoted the likes of Sergio Busquet, same way Luiz Enrique who I think many have definitely undermine his ability or the success he accomplished at Barcelona to me he is right up there with the likes of Pep Guardiola. He also promoted the likes of Sergio Roberto too, Before Xavi came in think players like Pedri were in the squad already too, so it is a club heritage thing and not basically a coach thing.

Yes we can both agree that Xavi made use of them more than some past managers, players like Lamine Yamal and Cubrasi had more minute because of the crisis the club had then. And also Xavi seemed more connected to the players than the other coaches which was the only difference
