La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Rampagoe004]

Proper management of the club allows them to maintain a balance between investments and achievements, they invest a lot of money in players, but by winning titles they receive large prize money which can cover most of the expenses. With the same calculation, Barcelona recruited players, they hoped to achieve big victories and thus get out of a difficult financial situation, but this is not always as easy to do as it seems. When there are financial problems, then among other things, you also need to be able to conduct competent financial planning, without this nothing will change, it seems that Flick shares this point of view.

I read the news which said that Barcelona's finances started to get worse since 2015 when they bought a lot of players at fantastic prices at that time. Poor financial management, failed player purchases and Covid-19 have meant that they have suffered financial failure around 2021-2022. I think Barcelona will take a few years to get back to financial health. I really regret this situation because Barcelona currently will not be able to compete in El Classico.

Real Madrid didn't prepare anything, but they have money and are financially stable, that's why they have been able to survive until now. Having competent player assets makes the Real Madrid squad able to become the kings of La Liga, even though spending money on players is not able to match Real Madrid's players.  with all existing aspects, Real Madrid has always been a candidate for the Champions League, so it is not surprising that Real Madrid is always easy with what this club wants to achieve, everything is always achieved easily, even though they are undergoing regeneration, they always apply their players to good and proven patterns in all competitions,  However, despite this, Real Madrid has a weakness that Real Madrid has never achieved, namely the Trible Winner, which Real Madrid has never experienced while having players in the CR7 era.

Money talks in soccer. Real Madrid has benefited because they have a lot of it. But you know what else they got? They have Florentino Perez. He's a winner. He understands team building, player purchase, and financial management. Barcelona got money too, but they dont know what to do with it. Though they are not winning like Real Madrid, they are slinging money about like confetti. Why? Because they dont have a leader like Florentino.

So, yeah, money helps, but its not everything. At the top you need someone who understands soccer and winning strategies. Real Madrid is outstanding because of that quality.

Various methods have been taken to make their finances stable again, but the efforts made by management have not been completely successful, they are still having financial difficulties which makes the situation even more difficult. Financial limitations made Barcelona lose one of its most valuable assets for free, Messi departure because Barcelona could not afford to pay his large salary. Barcelona must be wise in bringing in players because finances are very limited, they need to sell several players to get some money to bring in new players.

The only thing that can save Barcelona from financial decline is by utilizing players from La Masia. In the last two years Barcelona has very often promoted players from La Masia to the first team. Their presence can help Barcelona save on club expenses. Barcelona needs to reorganize its strength to provide competition again in the title race and can also compete again in El Clasico.

Barcelona's poor financial condition has in fact made it difficult for their previous coach's steps and hopes to achieve achievements. Of course they are starting to look good from their success in being in the Champions League zone, but the club officials are likely hoping that Barcelona will win the title instead of just being in the safe zone.

It is impossible to compete for the title with Real Madrid when Barcelona's squad depth is not as competitive as before. Lewandowski declined last season, several main players also suffered long injuries. Xavi's plans failed in the end even when he tried many things, but there remains hope for improvement if coaches and players alike can handle a lot of pressure.

Get financial problem make Barcelona difficult to compete Real Madrid dominance in La Liga although sign new manager meaning less help Barcelona for winning La Liga trophy in this season. I think primary problem of Barcelona because get difficult financial and current manager Xavi Hernandez plan failed after can't sign top talent players. Barcelona management has huge expected with the manager must be success winning La Liga and keep dominance in Champion League although has financial difficulty for signing new player and not be realistic with how much money spending for signing player with their achievement in domestic league or champion league.

Hansi Flick keep waiting how much money allocated for next season to sign new players, the rival team Real Madrid last week announced success signing Mbappe and waiting will Barcelona sign more better players than Real Madrid or only promote the youth players to senior team.

[lalabotax]

Yes, those times were the most beautiful where Real Madrid had many star players who really made European football admired by everyone, especially for every UCL competition, but now new era has emerged and hopefully they will be able to maintain their throne at the top European football.
And all this success is always inseparable from the performance of coaches who are able to maintain Real Madrid stability every season, look all Real Madrid coaches are great coaches and so far they have never failed in leading Real Madrid during their tenure.

Indeed, eras always change. Many clubs have a brilliant history in football and have been champions and favorite clubs in their time. However, not all clubs can maintain these historical carvings to this day. Some are even worse off.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid is one club that can at least always provide satisfaction to its fans. And they can prove that even today, they are special and great with great players in their respective eras. Real Madrid has various trophies that are still engraved to this day, not just in the past. So, we still think and assume that Real Madrid is a club that is consistent enough to always develop the club's performance and achieve various achievements in every era.

I read the news which said that Barcelona's finances started to get worse since 2015 when they bought a lot of players at fantastic prices at that time.

Their presence can help Barcelona save on club expenses. Barcelona needs to reorganize its strength to provide competition again in the title race and can also compete again in El Clasico.

The way for Barcelona to get out of the financial crisis is to win a trophy every season, or if the club is acquired by a new owner. In the last decade, Barcelona investment in a number of expensive players failed to meet expectations, resulting in financial instability. The Covid-19 factor adds to the difficulty of the situation, I think there are many other factors that are not published. It is not easy to get out of this chaos, management and club officials must also act carefully by paying attention to FFP rules. Barcelona existence as one of the elite clubs in Europe is decreasing, especially if they have to let go of star players again.

Sure enough, the best solution is to promote young players from the La Masia academy, this step can save the transfer budget, and Barcelona can benefit from releasing them to other clubs. Borrowing players from other clubs or recruiting players on free transfers could be a temporary solution, but these steps must also be in line with Hansi Flick wishes. For the next season or two, looking at Barcelona current situation, it looks like the El Clasico match will not be balanced. Not without reason, we can easily assess the current strength of Madrid and Barcelona based on the depth of the squad they have.

[Furious 7]

This is Joan Laporta's mistake so they are now suffering the consequences. Regarding when they will recover and be able to compete again with Real Madrid in the race for the title, I think it will take a long time, especially since their rivals are able to make the team's performance very stable, so it will be even more difficult for Barcelona.

I don't really agree if you say this is Laport's fault because regardless of anything this Barcelona problem has been going on since a few seasons ago and we need to remember that Laporta is the president who was given a heavy burden to improve Barcelona's condition which has been damaged due to not very good management from the previous Bartomeu era so Laporta is just a replacement president who is still trying to stabilize Barcelona's financial strength until now and I don't think he is entirely to blame.

Although in this case there are some controversial decisions such as when they prefer to remodel the stadium rather than improve financial conditions or shop for players more than expected in the early Xavi era including Xavi's dismissal this season which I think is quite controversial but overall when Laporta replaced the role of Bartomeu at least there was a difference where he gradually managed to improve financially even though it was not completely healthy for now.

[Alpha Marine]

If Joan Laporta had spent money with some ingenuity and caution, the Barcelona team would not have faced such a financial crisis. I would definitely blame Joan Laporta for Barcelona and the bad situation. Because even a few years ago, Barcelona was in a stronger financial position. But now Barcelona are in a very bad position. We don't know when Barcelona will be able to stabilize financially and dominate La Liga again. It is now a difficult task for Barcelona.

This is Joan Laporta's mistake so they are now suffering the consequences. Regarding when they will recover and be able to compete again with Real Madrid in the race for the title, I think it will take a long time, especially since their rivals are able to make the team's performance very stable, so it will be even more difficult for Barcelona.

Currently, Barcelona has no other way to build a team other than hoping for young players from their academy. They must produce superior or potential seeds to develop in the next few seasons so they can compete with Real Madrid.

I predict that maybe in the next 3 or 5 seasons, when some of Barcelona's potential young players will have enough experience and have matured, they will be able to compete with Real Madrid and regarding the team's financial recovery, when they can achieve success, it will take a little longer.

This is like reading something from two people who do not follow the la liga but depends on what the general public say about the league and the clubs in the league without actually knowing anything going on in the league. We all know Madrid is the most successful club in Europe but that doesn't mean they'll win every trophy every year.

First of all, how do you people blame Laporta for the financial ruins if Barcelona when he was not the president then? If you had any idea of what's going on in Barcelona you'll know it was the past administration led by Josep Bartomeu that was responsible for the situation Barcelona is in today. Juan Laporta came in and is trying to fix things and has done a pretty good job actually.

Barcelona the league the season before last. They were in a financial crisis when they won that league title, they had to rely on a few signings and free agents, but they won it. My point is, football is not on paper. You said it yourself Madrid is known for signing the best players in the world, but they have not been able to dominate the la liga. You people really believe Barcelona would go 3-5 years without winning a la liga trophy? Think again. Barcelona may be going through financial crisis and getting knocked out in Europe, but in La liga, they dominate, in this century at least.
The signing of Mbappe doesn't make Madrid invincible.

[Adams0001]

So, we still think and assume that Real Madrid is a club that is consistent enough to always develop the club's performance and achieve various achievements in every era.

Every session, Real Madrid only changes players who can help them stay stable, and last season, Joselu was Madrid's striker, and while many people say he isn't good and can't help Real Madrid, he performed and helped Real Madrid qualify for the Champions League final against Dortmund. That is why I prefer Ancelotti; he does not buy players who will not perform well; instead, he conducts extensive research to find players. This is why they are the best coach with Guadiola because he is the only coach who buys players who perform well in the club. I am only thinking about Barcelona, who are suffering financial troubles, and he will still effect them next season if they didn't fund the solution. Because how can a big club like Barcelona not have enough money to buy players for the team? The president should do something about it, or they should sell Barcelona to someone who can buy players, given the current scenario.Because how can a big club like Barcelona not have enough money to buy players for the team? The president should do something about it, or they should sell Barcelona to someone who can buy players, since the current one is facing financial situation.

I no longer find abnormal transfer fees normal in the modern football world. I think that after a while there will be more free agent swaps or free transfers like in basketball, because as teams pay high transfer fees, they come under huge debt burdens after unsuccessful years. This leads teams to pay lower transfer fees.

[Ryu_Ar1]

The Barcelona team has wasted a lot of money in the past. Otherwise, a club like Barcelona would never have faced financial crisis. This group is not strong enough now. Barcelona management does not have the ability to strengthen the squad by buying new players.

The problem of Barcelona being overconfident and difficult to move after their golden era has made the situation even more difficult and it has been one of the factors for their decline in recent seasons because indeed when financial problems occur as you said in this case Barcelona is throwing too much money which is not going well.
Coutinho, Griezmann and even Dembele or some players whose presence is questionable such as Romeu and even Braithwhite, in my opinion, is a rash action which in the end makes their situation worse.
Even though they have a myriad of good enough players in the academy that they can maximize but in several seasons during the era before Xavi they seemed not to care about La Masia players and only focused on star players which was a blunder for them.

Perez also actually did a situation that was not much different because indeed some players were also like the wrong investment where there were several players like Hazard or even Mariano who failed but on the other hand Perez's ingenuity in managing their finances and seeing the potential of young players actually became an advantage that could not even be obtained by Barcelona which made the conditions of these two rivals different.

While considering the age of Ramos and the station he had in PSG in the last season I was expecting to see him getting retire at the end of this season while playing for Sevilla but it seems he is about to leave Sevilla and he will keep playing in another team.
His performance in Sevilla was not good and it was disappointing for Ramos.
Maybe he will play for Saudi teams or the other teams. But Now it seems Ramos is going to play in MLS with other superstar players like Messi.

Well, it is true that he is better to retire than playing in MLS.  
I don't see the advantage to play in MLS. If he wants a lot of money, he should play in SPL. He also will meet old friends if he moves to SPL, Benzema and Ronaldo are in SPL already. It is interesting to see how they played in SPL because SPL becomes more popular nowadays.

I don't really follow his performance in Sevilla. But when I checked his stats in some sources, it doesn't look too bad. As a 38 years old player, I think his performance is quite satisfying. But unfortunately Ramos can't stop to get cards in his career. He still got 1 red card and 10 yellow cards in the whole season. This factor may be another reason why Sevilla doesn't want to extend his contract.

This leads teams to pay lower transfer fees.

The prices of players sometimes really do sounds outrageous and I believe it's a strategy by the team to place very high bids in their players o that at the end of the day other teams may consider the players too expensive and not buy the so the Player keeps playing with them till his contract expires and by then they must of gotten the team enough money probably by winning a trophy or trying to help them achieve a good position in the  champions league and their domestic league games aswell. Some players may later get to become free agents because their contract will end and you can decide on renew or not.

Some players find it even better going as a free agent and that is why after their contract expires, they don't get to sign a new contract except for  a favourite team who has been their dream team where they wanted to play, so getting to play in such team, especially if it turns out good for them, they will definitely make sure to sign a new contract but otherwise they will have to move and have a very good and fair potion at this time when no one wants to best friend like, go property run errands amongst engineer.

That's right, Florentino Perez seems smarter when it comes to financial management, even though he has failed in several cases. After Luis Enrique left, Barcelona experienced gradual decline, the successors who followed prioritized experienced players, regeneration did not go well, so La Masia product players did not get many opportunities to be promoted to the main squad. This was a mistake on the part of management in safeguarding the club long term interests, so it is not surprising that Barcelona is currently mired in large debts. Getting out of this crisis situation is not easy, unless they can find a magical boy like Messi again. Not only that, they have to create a golden generation from the La Masia academy. Besides that, I think Xavi dismissal was the wrong decision, because he understands the club better than Hansi Flick.

[makishart]

Barcelona's sporting director, Deco, tried to find a left winger who had been vacant for a long time and his choice fell on Luis Diaz from Liverpool. He will be a priority target for the left wing and I think that is a pretty good option rather than having to keep making other players difficult. As we know, the left winger position is quite a concern because sometimes this position is filled by players who are not in their natural position, such as Gavi, Joao Felix, or others.

Because of this, Barcelona must look for a definite player in that position and the possibility of Ansu Fati returning is also increasingly slim. The reason is that Brighton's loan period ended this June and there is still no progress on whether Ansu Fati can return to Barcelona or not and if Brighton intends to make him permanent then that could be additional funds to sign Luis Diaz.

Barcelona is openly interested in Luis Diaz, but their new recruit to fill the position on the left wing still prioritizes Nico Williams. The presence of players who play in the left wing position is very necessary in order to maintain balance at the front, so far in the Xavi era, several players have filled that position because they did not have a player operating in that area.
Luis Diaz could be an alternative if Barcelona fails to bring in Nico Williams, but the presence of a new coach could create another surprise that was never expected before, he may have another reliable target in that position. Ansu Fati started not getting a place at Barcelona, ​​his loan to Brighton was due to his performance not meeting the club management's expectations. He will be included in the process of bringing in Florian Wirtz, Deco really wants Florian Wirtz to be in the Barcelona squad and Hansi Flick also really agrees with this option.

I've also heard about Nico Williams and rather than Luis Diaz it seems like Barcelona will be closer to Nico Williams. Because I don't think Liverpool will easily give up Luis Diaz, especially since Liverpool doesn't have a good left winger like Luis Diaz. So it looks like as long as Liverpool can keep Luis Diaz from leaving then Barcelona won't get him.

Florian Wirtz? I think most people already know that this Leverkusen player will be a Real Madrid transfer in 2025 and it seems like Barcelona won't be able to do anything if their rival is Real Madrid, which has everything. So I think Florian Wirtz going to Barcelona is just a baseless rumor, especially with a market value of 130 million euros, Barcelona doesn't have that kind of money to sign him.

Barcelona has clarified that if the club is not interested in Nico Williams, the newest report suggests that flick has greater interest in recruiting Dani Olmo from Leipzig than Nico Williams, and Luis Diaz may still be Barcelona's priority target over olmo or nico williams. Diaz stated that La Liga is his dream league. Diaz's father has also encouraged him to join the La Liga club. It was a positive signal from diaz for barcelona. 

Anyway, as far as i know, wirtz hasn't revealed which team he'll be playing for, and the news of him joining Real Madrid in the future is still a rumor. There is nothing substantial about this. There are no conversations between Real Madrid and Leverkusen about his move; however, it is not ruling out his  for him to join Real Madrid alongside Xabi Alonso.

Besides that, I think Xavi dismissal was the wrong decision, because he understands the club better than Hansi Flick.

Florentino Perez is smarter in managing finances and up to now Real Madrid is still the most successful club in Europe even though it has expensive players, in fact Barcelona also has big names like Real Madrid but unfortunately the club under the leadership of Joan Laporta is still experiencing financial difficulties to this day. This is even though before Joan Laporta became president of Barcelona, ​​the club was already experiencing chaos, but over the years, the debt has not been paid off, the debt that Barcelona currently has is still quite large, they cannot recruit players if they still have large debts, Barcelona could experience bankruptcy.

I know Barcelona is a great club, they can develop players from their own academy into great players, if Barcelona can't afford to buy players because their finances are experiencing problems, at least they can promote players from their academy. Who knows, there may be one golden boy who will improve Barcelona's performance like this Lamine Yamal is the youngest player Barcelona has but his abilities on the field are worthy of appreciation. He doesn't seem to have any mental problems when he has to play with seniors on the field.

Barcelona actually could have been near extinct if they did not have so many loyal players. Especially with the financial situation that they are in right now. But of course, they have a very big legacy and these players actually want to be a part of the legacy of Barcelona and that's why they are so loyal to Barcelona.

By the way, Fermín López is a good player. he helps the team a lot. He also has a good work rate. Scored eight goals in this season but his contribution to the Barcelona squad was more than that. I think Barcelona should and will give López a new contract.

In my opinion, this is all because Barcelona wants to bring in experienced players like Dani Olmo, who has more experience at several clubs, while Nico Williams only has less experience than Dani Olmo, but for me I would be more in favor of bringing in Nico Williams even though he is not very experienced, but Nico Williams could be a long-term investment player at his young age and can still improve his talents to make a big contribution to Barca.
Talking about Luis Diaz, there seems to be a slight mistake if Diaz's father actually wants Diaz to join Real Madrid, not Barcelona and I don't think Diaz's father said that he should go to LaLiga.
As far as I remember, this news has been spreading since several seasons ago.

It seems like Real Madrid doesn't need another midfielder because currently as far as I know, Real Madrid already has a midfielder who doesn't need any changes.
