La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[red4slash]

Ansu Fati's fate seems to be coming to light. The reason is, Barcelona has crossed his name from the club's transfer list because they want to see the player return to his best performance in the 2024/25 season. Before injury hampered his development, Ansu Fati was one of the brightest young talents. Like last September, Fati was released to Brighton on loan for one season. At the end of June Barcelona wanted to let him go this summer, due to concerns over his fitness and injury record. They also think that Fati will have difficulty fitting into the new coach Hansi Flick's scheme.

But if you look at the situation of his current contract, actually even if he is not dropped, he will also leave because looking at Ansu's contract at Barcelona, he actually runs out at the end of this season unless there was an agreement for a contract extension beforehand, but I have not seen that.

Ansu Pati's performance has declined and when he was loaned out to Brighton he was actually more in the treatment room including towards the end of the season some time ago because he was badly injured which kept him sidelined for some time.

Indeed, at the beginning of Ansu's appearance he was a player who had good talent, it's just that with the history of injuries he has actually become a dilemma where the performance with the glass foot that Ansu currently has is like a difficult situation for Barcelona to keep this player and I think his chance to change clubs (Sevilla is still trying to approach) is still wide open for Ansu next season.

Benfica is willing to offer €32.5m euro to get joão Felix, Aston villa on the other hand is also considering a bid on Felix too, all of which Barcelona appears in matching on any of these offers, it most likely Barcelona may be loosing Felix except they get to make a better offer or he's been offered fro a loan by his team again of which I don't believe such deal will happen again, he potential is now made very clear to every team.

Aston villa I think will be a much better place for Felix If they eventually secure the deal and get him to be on their side, benfica wouldn't be a bad side but may not get to provide him with the kind of exposure that will really help his career well enough beyond the point it is already. Looking at Barcelona, they would love to retain him as they have seen how much of importance he could be to their team.

Benfica is a team with a great talent for choosing players, they have managed to buy cheap players with great talent and then sell that player for a very high price, it has been like that for many years and from what I have read, the rumors are that the Benfica would have offered €32.5m for half of João Felix's pass, sincerely knowing Benfica's strategy when it comes to signings, I highly doubt that they would actually follow this path when dealing with João Felix because he is already too expensive for Benfica So Benfica wouldn't take the risk of buying him because they wouldn't be able to sell him for a high price and João Felix is ​​still a long way from retiring. So I see this as just a rumor

I'm convinced that Barcelona will reach an agreement for another loan, but I keep asking myself why the Barcelona management that had 1 year with him don't focus on raising money to buy him permanently? It looks like the Barcelona management has discovered a way to make money from player loans, because things that the Barcelona management have done are definitely not normal.

Xavi may have left a solid legacy at Barcelona but even without all that, I think Hansi Flick will be able to achieve success with Barcelona as long as he has full support from the boss. Hansi Flick is a good coach, and I think Barcelona was very fortunate to be able to sign him to replace Xavi. The only problem that might be the biggest obstacle for Hansi Flick is Barcelona's financial condition which might prevent him from being free to recruit the players he wants.

Yes, Barcelona was very lucky when they managed to get Flick, he is a figure who previously had quite a brilliant reputation. Financial problems are of course an obstacle for him to be able to get new players in the transfer market. However, the current squad is also quite competitive and Flick must be able to manage it well and not completely change the scheme inherent in the Blaugrana, namely tika-taka. Flick must also be able to get support from fans so that it is easy for him to compete with Real Madrid.

Barcelona will compete with other clubs in the league, but my concern is that they will not be able to challenge Real Madrid with their current squad. However, since Xavi is no longer the coach, I believe the new coach will do their best to make Barcelona successful and win the title, allowing them to buy quality players. Let's see Flick's performance next season if he can turn Barcelona to be successful and make the supporters happy, because even the fans don't think they'll do well next season since they don't have key players in the club now if not Yamal and Pedri, that I think they are young and can help Barcelona very well in the feature. but the rest are old and I don't think if they didn't get new players he will definitely be affecting the club performance losing matches and trophies in the competition if they didn't solve the issues.

[TelolettOm]

Do you agree if Ansu Fati moves to Sevilla?

I do, why not?. As long as sevilla sent lucrative offer for ansu fati, and better for barcelona to sell him. Ansu's fate has gone from something to nothing. It's time for Barcelona to sell him and use the money to buy a talented player.

As long as he is not for Real Madrid, it's okay. 
It's nothing, yes, but we know that Barcelona players will not go to Real Madrid and vice versa, that's the reason, for everyone's safety.
Ansu Fatti is only 21 years old and his performance is actually quite good, it's just that the end of the season has not been optimal for several reasons. However, basically, if he had full time hours at the club and had much greater opportunities, he would develop even more. He has potential and he has to develop it. At Barcelona, ​​he hasn't had a lot of playing time and hasn't been in his position permanently, so, if Sevilla really wants him to be in the main squad, why not? This could be a good opportunity for Ansu Fati.

Yes, if you say that Xavi failed to coach Barcelona, ​​I think that assumption could be said to be incorrect. Because, as long as Xavi starts coaching Barcelona from 2021 to 2024, he has given maximum dedication to Barcelona. However, as we know, Barcelona is currently experiencing financial problems. However, Xavi as a coach who can be said to be still young is still able to make Barcelona a tough competitor in La Liga.

If he fails, in his first season he will not bring Barcelona to win La Liga. He was successful in his first season. It's just that in the following season, Barcelona's condition became even worse, not only because of the financial crisis that was still going on so that Xavi couldn't optimally get his players, while other opposing teams were increasingly experiencing significant improvements, but moreover there were also several main players who were injured. So this moment is a pretty bad season for Barcelona. it's just that they are still in the top 2.

But for this season, Hansi Flick also has to try hard. It won't be easy for Barcelona in its current condition to jump very high in the season, especially since its rival Real Madrid is much more stable, the front line, especially, is much stronger, and the defense and midfield are also beyond doubt. So, if it is true on paper, Barcelona is still behind. We just have to look ahead. Barcelona still has time to get other top players, but the problem is that they don't have a lot of funds and this is the main problem.

[Pressurizedem]

if Barcelona can get their kind of players that can improve their squad next season season,then Madrid will definitely be in trouble especially now that Barcelona are going for players that can strengthen the team in players like Nico Williams whom have been very terrific in the Euro 2024.
I heard his mind and heart is bent on going to Barcleona,he loves the club and wants to play their to be able to compete with the tough players at Madrid when ever they gave their El-classico.While Madrid are not scared of any team again because with the addition of Mbape,they are not scared of facing any team.

[hyudien]

The main problem is that Atletico Madrid never wanted to keep Joao Felix because Felix felt uncomfortable with the attitude of the supporters who considered the player to be a traitor.
In fact, this problem has been around for a long time, but it is very likely that Atletico Madrid will not be able to keep this player because for the sake of peace and on the other hand, even though this player has extraordinary talent, the club that owns this player would prefer to sell him and get a new player.

Source
The reason Atletico Madrid does not want to let Barcelona go is very clear if Barcelona will not be able to make an offer at the price Atletico Madrid wants.
I would prefer to see him join Aston Villa rather than return to Benfica.

Atletico Madrid are welcome for selling Joao Felix but get difficult with higher bid offer and make any interested team can't pay how much expensive fees transfer, extend loan for Barcelona seems difficult because Atletico Madrid only want to sell him for any teams have bigger offering fees. Actually Joao Felix get bad communicate with Atletico Madrid manager Simione and seems still not happy with Joao Felix's attitude with bad respect.

Not clearly with the future of Joao Felix and bit possibility Barcelona have much money to pay transfer fees, if not reach any new club seems Joao Felix will put on the bench for next season behind Simione not happy with him giving the regular position. Barcelona seems prefer waiting with current condition between Joao Felix and Atletico Madrid, has second chance for Barcelona extending loan or not?

It is still unclear what the future holds for this young player, because on the one hand Atletico Madrid are not giving him enough playing time and on the other hand it is difficult to let Felix go at the price they want. The option is to let him go on loan. This will also come when they are not sure about Barcelona, ​​because Barcelona with their current situation is very unlikely to make a big offer to make Felix theirs.
If an offer comes in that is not much different from what they want, I think they will have to let him go, unless Atletico Madrid wants to slowly kill the career of this young player. But in my opinion that's not wise at all, because if they don't need it, then they can sell it or at least lend it. It is very unfortunate when young players who have good potential have to sit on the bench just because of personal problems. That's unprofessional.

[tusandii]

If Barcelona weren't experiencing financial problems they could easily get the type of players you say. The problem is that Barcelona today is very different from the Barcelona of the past so it is quite difficult for the club to recruit players of their type.
I don't think Barcelona will be able to fulfill their desire to recruit this player even if they want it because the price tagged by Athletic Bilbao for Nico Williams is more than 50 million euros and Barcelona cannot afford to spend that much money to recruit this player.

Apart from that, Nico Williams is also being targeted by Chelsea and Arsenal. This club is clearly able to recruit this player at the agreed price, but hearing the player's statement that he still wants to stay in La Liga, it seems like he is not yet interested in experiencing other leagues.

While Madrid are not scared of any team again because with the addition of Mbape,they are not scared of facing any team.

Well, that's what Madrid is feeling right now. Even before Mbappe arrived, Madrid didn't feel afraid of any club since Barcelona experienced financial problems. Real Madrid felt they were at an advantage as their arch rival.

Barcelona will play every team next season, but it goes without saying that they won't be able to compete very well. 
After Real Madrid I would definitely say Atlético Madrid and Girona as teams Barcelona are least likely to do well against. Real Madrid is one of the strongest teams in the league and since Real Madrid's team is very different from the team that Barcelona has built, it is already understood that this season will not be a tough competition between Real Madrid and Barcelona. It's definitely a sad news for the Barcelona fans as they won't be able to compete with their arch-rivals Real Madrid. As in other seasons there was a lot of excitement about the El Clasico, maybe next season there will not be so much excitement about the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Finishing in second place already indicates that Barcelona is able to compete at the top, but that doesn't mean that next season Barcelona won't be able to compete at the top, even though Barcelona is hampered by financial problems, that doesn't mean they will slump next season.

The change of coach will change the direction of Barcelona game in the future, management really hopes that Hansi Flick can improve Barcelona quality to become a club again capable of winning the La Liga tournament. Barcelona management is working hard to improve the quality of the team, they will try to sell several unused players in order to bring in new players to increase the strength of the squad led by Hansi Flick.
Real Madrid is still the strongest team in La Liga so far, Mbappe arrival will further increase their sharpness and trouble the opponent's defense. Barcelona must be able to provide competition to win the title, the compensation received after winning La Liga can help increase the club's finances.

Let's not rush to strengthen Real's attack because of the arrival of Mbappe, he cannot show anything meaningful at the Euro, maybe he needs rest, or there is some other reason, but so far he does not look like the striker who can strengthen the attack. It is also difficult to evaluate Barcelona with Flick, because we have not seen how this team will play with a new coach, maybe they will be able to achieve better results in the new season, because Kroos has retired, Modric is also not as good as before, the middle line will clearly weaken. Barcelona's potential is great enough to compete with Real Madrid, of course it's a pity that Xavi was fired, it's a bad decision, but Barcelona needs to move on...

[Leviathan.007]

João Cancelo is still a pain for Barcelona. They tried to hire João Cancelo for another season and they want to have this player on loan but it seems Manchester City wants to sell him permanently and earn some money from selling this player. Barcelona doesn't have enough money to buy João Cancelo from Manchester City but now the other problem for Barcelona in hiring João Cancelo is about the other offers he got.
Other than Barcelona, Inter Milan is also linked to this player and Al Ettifaq also wants to hire Cancelo which can make everything harder for Barcelona.

Flick needs to take keeping Joao Cancelo in the team very seriously because he doesn't have much money for new transfers. In addition, Pedri was injured yesterday, it is preliminary known that he will be out until the end of the Euro, but we don't knows how things will be and how quickly he can recover. Flick agreed to work without buying new players, he confirmed that he could do without new transfers, I understand that he wants to be on good terms with the management, and for now he ready to say what they want to hear from him, but this will be relevant until the first failures, then everything can change.

[Rampagoe004]

However, now Ansu Fati is no longer on Barca's selling list. It seems that Flick and director Deco want to see the player's abilities next season. Barca have also formed a Dream Team for fitness training, which aims to help Fati, and several other star players, overcome fitness problems and restore their performance. Flick has identified his key players for the upcoming season, including talented young players such as Lamine Yamal, Pedri and Gavi, including Fati who clearly fits the profile of players their new coach wants.

Ansu Fati was one of the brightest young talents when his professional debut began. He is even called the next Messi because of his extraordinary dribbling abilities. But unfortunately the injury he suffered made his performance really decline. Ansu Fati, Gavi and Pedri are young stars who should be the future of Barcelona but unfortunately they have had unlucky fate. I remember how Gavi and Pedri were called the next xavi iniesta duo. I just hope that they can return to their best performance. Barcelona is lucky to have many talented young stars who can help the club return to championship contention amidst the financial crisis they are experiencing.

Hansi Flick is a good guy, proven track record. Barcelona has been a trash fire lately. Flick was brought in since Xavi failed. Nice move, but it's Barcelona. Their collapse is always one bad decision away. This team revamp is intriguing. Dead weight removal is fine. They need players, but can they get them? We'll observe. With Mbappe leading Real Madrid, they remain the side to beat. Undoubtedly

Pedri and Yamal, those kids are talented. Barcelona may push for the crown if Flick can harness that. And La Liga victory? Cha-ching! That cash infusion might be substantial. Though cautiously optimistic, I've seen Barcelona fail too many times to get enthused. See Flick's abilities. The potential exists, but the road to success is long

[Oluwa-btc]

Atletico Madrid still owns this player, but I am quite surprised by them, because in my opinion this player is a player who has good abilities, but Atletico Madrid doesn't use him much and prefers to loan him out.

Felix is absolutely a really talented player. The reason why he can't find himself a place at Atletico Madrid is simply that he doesn't fit the current game plan of the team.

Simeone prefers a more defensive way of play you know. He doesn't like a fully attacking football. As Felix can't show good performances in this system it is the best for him to leave. Simeone clearly shows that he has no plans for him in the end. Barcelona has also announced that they won't be after him as of the end of his loan spell. Therefore I'm really curious about his next station. I just hope it would be another big team. 



https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1807387318220697673

I will agree about what's said about the player and his parent club. I don't see him getting a chjace even if he decides to stay, so it's best he makes move for another club or possibly back to Benfica who wants him. Diego Simeone is just too defensive and  bit lately, I feel it's more than that , maybe we should wait until he is completely out of the club, then he can say his mind about what's going down.

T's not about going through anoth big club, he's just been to both Chelsea and Barcelona, and nothing really to account for , he should move to a club that jas his best interest at heart. With Portugal knocked out of the EURO'S Competition, they'll begin making moves for him.

João Cancelo is still a pain for Barcelona. They tried to hire João Cancelo for another season and they want to have this player on loan but it seems Manchester City wants to sell him permanently and earn some money from selling this player. Barcelona doesn't have enough money to buy João Cancelo from Manchester City but now the other problem for Barcelona in hiring João Cancelo is about the other offers he got.
Other than Barcelona, Inter Milan is also linked to this player and Al Ettifaq also wants to hire Cancelo which can make everything harder for Barcelona.

Another Portuguese player with a club bit has refused to play for the club or the coach has refused to work with him further. If it's too hard for Barcelona to get it done, why no move to Inter Milan? St least they're also performing at a top level in both domestic games and that of the Champions League Competition.

I believe that, he is just too talented to move Saudi Arabian Premier League Competition right now. These are just speculations from me personally. I don't think I know what's cooking honestly. They should also have checked his age no wonder they do longer wants him.

[Leviathan.007]

Barcelona is still trying hard to get Nico Williams since this player can help Barcelona to have better forwards and better performance. But hiring Nico Williams is going to be hard and expensive for this team. That's why Barcelona is also considering Maxi Araújo as plan B. If they can't hire Williams they will start negotiations with Araújo.
Maxi Araújo is still under contract until 2026 and it seems they don't want to lose him easily that's why they asked 20 million euros for Araújo.
He played for Uruguay in the first squad and he was a man of the match in two games recently.

[wmaurik]

if Barcelona can get their kind of players that can improve their squad next season season,then Madrid will definitely be in trouble especially now that Barcelona are going for players that can strengthen the team in players like Nico Williams whom have been very terrific in the Euro 2024.
I heard his mind and heart is bent on going to Barcleona,he loves the club and wants to play their to be able to compete with the tough players at Madrid when ever they gave their El-classico.While Madrid are not scared of any team again because with the addition of Mbape,they are not scared of facing any team.

Real Madrid will not have more problems even though Barcelona can bring in great players into their squad next season. Because every new player also needs good cooperation in the team and also good adaptation within the team so that instant good results will not immediately occur except through dreams. And if you know that Real Madrid is a team that is never afraid of any rival, of course you also have to realize that Real Madrid is a team that is truly ready to face next season with any challenges.

Yes that's right. Don't be too quick to predict that Barcelona will fail to compete next season. Pre-season hasn't started yet and of course Barcelona will continue to improve with its new coach. No matter how bad Barcelona's performance was under Xavi, they were still able to finish in second place in Laliga. This proves that the Barcelona squad is actually still good, it just needs to be developed to be more solid and stronger.

Moreover, Flick is known as a coach who is good at creating strategies that are always fluid and changing positions. This is very different from Xavi, who always assigns Lamal and Raphinha to stick close to the edge of the field and maximize the width of the goal. When Flick coached Bayer Munich he implemented a strategy of generating more chances from crosses and placing more players in the penalty box while Xavi was more confident playing in the half-spaces to cut the deficit. I think this is the main difference that will make Barcelona better next season and able to compete with Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Girona.

[rendravolt]

Mallorca has announced its new recruit for next season and this time it is an Asian player from Japan, namely Takuma Asano. Maybe his face wouldn't be so foreign if we often saw him when he played for Japan at the international level and his role was that important for the national team. Takuma Asano plays as a winger and Mallorca got him from Bochum after the player became a free agent at the end of this season.

With the arrival of Takuma Asano, La Liga will have a new face from Asia and previously we knew that Real Sociedad also has an Asian player from Japan, namely Takefusa Kubo, who has been very impressive over the last few seasons. Mallorca certainly wants to continue to improve the effectiveness of their wins because we know they were in the CDR final last season but had to lose against Bilbao. It is hoped that the arrival of Takuma Asano can gradually make a difference to the Mallorca squad.
