La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Docnaster]

With Kylian Mbappe, Coach Ancelotti can arrange many different formations and all possess terrible destructive power. Mbappe's position in Real's attack is the story I'm interested in after the French striker debuted at the Bernabeu. Honestly, it's not difficult to put Mbappe in the lineup. He will integrate into the team. The important thing is that Mbappe has enough talent and dedication for the team. Coach Ancelotti will use Kylian Mbappe as a trump card to change his tactics unpredictably in each match.

The presence of Kylian Mbappe in the Real Madrid team I believe will make the manager to change from the playing formation he used last season so he can accommodate the France striker in his regular starting XI. Real Madrid last season mostly played four midfielders while playing a front two of Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo as Bellingham was allowed to play in the false 9 position but with the arrival of Kylian Mbappe, I expect Real Madrid to go back to a front three attackers and three midfielders.
Carlo Ancelotti have proven over the years with his incredible success in football that he has all it takes to manage any team regardless of how talented it appears to be so I believe he already knows what to do with the Real Madrid team

[ginsan]

I remember Anceloti been Interviewed on Obi Michael, ex Chelsea midfielder podcast and when he asked Anceloti where he will be playing Mbape and he responded forward but didn't indicate which particular position in the forward and he made examples of how Vinicious, Rodrigo, and Bellingham  are Versatile players which he used on any place that he want and they perform excellently. I think that's what he is going to be doing with Mbape coming matches.

I too believe on Anceloti and he is not the kind of person that do too much, if it's not going to favour him, he will know from onset, Mbape is a big project for Real Madrid and he is going to deliver until 2026 which I think he might want to retire possibly. I'm not sure if he is ever going to work elsewhere after Real Madrid.

I think Ancelotti made us curious about the answers he gave in the podcast. But if my assumption is that Mbappe will play as a center forward or flanked by Vini and Rodrygo then we will see a new trio in Real Madrid's front line. I think the players must be ready for a new position if that is what Ancelotti does this season. Indeed, Ancelotti is very clever in formulating strategies by placing players who have no difficulty carrying out their duties.

There is nothing that can be said other than Ancelotti's great success in assembling a team for the long term because for now almost all the players are young and the transitions they have made have shown quite satisfactory results. We will see Mbappe, Vini, Rodrygo and Bellingham bring many trophies for Real Madrid this season or in the next season.

I can only laugh while watching Barcelona's steps and ambitions. As a poor club, Barcelona deserves to be appreciated for having so many desires to buy this, buy that, sell this, sell that and so on. Laporta is under pressure to be able to turn around the club's very minimal finances. Not only Gundogan, there are Barcelona players who are in demand by many European clubs. If Barcelona needs additional funds, of course, they will sell De Jong, and Roque will provide an injection faster by buying Olmo and Williams. Before it's too late because in the transfer market having money is the main point so Barcelona competes with other clubs to get the player's signature.

Lol... they have their  major setback to be financial status but atleast they're making effort to turn that... Xavi knew the  club status which was why he tried to build Lamasia's players, sad he couldn't finish that but at least he discovered new talents which will be of valuable asset  to the club. Its not really a must to get both since we can't afford it but any of them is fine preferably Williams.
Barca can't sell dejong because he's valuable to the club, his impact was felt last year after he had injury and do did Gavi not long,Flick seem to have interest in Roque which might not make the club to sell him at the moment

What is clear is that for next season Ancelotti will not be able to play 2 strikers because after all, with Mbappe's capacity as a targetman it is still possible, especially with Vini and Rodrygo who are more comfortable in the winger position so that indeed 3 strikers can be more suitable.

It's just that this is Ancelotti where he is sometimes always unexpected to do a scheme and formation including placing players. We can see last season when several defenders were injured he even used Camavinga as a full-back and Tchouameni as a center-back more often than putting them in their original positions.
Last season we also saw Jude comfortable in his new position as a player behind the striker whereas previously at Dortmund he was an attacking midfielder.
This season could also be like that again where Ancelotti does an interesting thing by placing players who he thinks deserve to be in a new position later.

Yes, it could be 4-3-3 where this formation would be quite ideal considering that Mbappe is already filling the number 9 jersey. All players must be ready to accept the changes that Ancelotti will make in setting the ideal formation this season. OK, let's talk about Mbappe, where many say that he will be plotted in the position left by Benzema and that will be quite beneficial for him because he will continue to be able to score lots of goals from good passes from Vini and Rodrygo.
Apart from that, we will see what formation Ancelotti will use in this pre-season match where Real Madrid will face AC Milan at the beginning of this month.
If there are changes, of course pre-season matches will be quite ideal for coaches to look for the best way to find the right solution.

Real Madrid really has a very competitive front line / attacking squad. And this may be the question of who will really be the squad in the next starting eleven. Moreover, Endrick has now officially joined Real Madrid, a very young Center-Forward from Brazil who previously got an agreement when he was only 16 years old, and now officially has finally joined Real Madrid, with the number 16 jersey at the age of just 18 years old. He will be at Real Madrid with a 6-year contract directly.

For the squad in Milan later, they did not include Mbappe's name in the squad. Instead, they included Endrick, a young talent who has just officially joined Real Madrid after he turned 18 YO. This is the first match that will make him work with the club. This is just a pre-season, so we don't see some of their main players in the list of players.

update from Real Madrid channel:

REAL MADRID SQUAD:
Goalkeepers: Courtois, Lunin and Fran González*.
Defenders: Militão*, Lucas Vázquez, Vallejo, Fran García, Rüdiger, Jacobo Ramón*, Lorenzo, Obrador, Asencio and Joan Martínez.
Midfielders: Modrić, Arda Güler, Ceballos, Nico Paz, Mario Martín, Palacios and Jeremy de León.
Forwards: Vini Jr.*, Rodrygo*, Endrick, Brahim, Latasa and Álvaro Rodríguez.

Maybe Barcelona only has the mainstay of the trio, but what if Real Madrid has other options? such as using four of their players in the attack line with the addition of an AMF as seen in this picture, wouldn't that just make Barcelona miserable? actually this is not a fitting comparison but in the match Barcelona must be ready for the possibilities that exist and here Real Madrid has a more ideal player rotation from various sides.

If you look at the ideal condition of the players, Real Madrid looks better because of the rotation options and the quality of the players they have. Comparing Barcelona and Real Madrid today seems to be quite far from the difference they have. So maybe many people are pessimistic about Barcelona if they rely on those 3 players. They will find it difficult to rotate players. This condition will cause players to be exhausted and prone to injury. So they cannot be maximized in many competitions.

People are focusing too much on the attacking line. But they forgot that the midfield and defense are important too. I don't see a big gap in the attacking lines of Barcelona and Real Madrid. But Barcelona has missed some players, like Cancelo, who contributed a lot last season.

They must find a replacement for Cancelo. Some at the club may be able to fill in, but they are not as good as Cancelo. I find it's not hard for Barcelona to rotate their players. They could also pick a potential player from their La Masia academy.

Barcelona has good resources not to rely on the same players all the time. Their young talent is potentially to be mentioned as playing in La liga.

[bitgolden]

I am not sure that how great Lewandowski could still be. I am not saying that he is no longer good, but last year I saw him have a slower step, and he may not be greater this year, he is getting older and there is a potential that he could end up being not that greater, feels like it is not going to be that awesome.

In the end, we are talking about something that's going to take some time and because of that I honestly think that we are going to see him score lesser goals. Whereas Mbappe is just starting out, we may even see his prime yet, because I do not think that we have seen his prime.

At Real Madrid, with best teammates, with best head coach at Ancelotti, and with best facilities anyone can think of, with best staff around him? In 3 years we could see someone much different.

If Ronaldo was so great at Real, I think the only one that can even get close to Ronaldo will be Mbappe, and he could score 50+ goals a year there, which would be insane but not impossible considering how many games they are playing. I am guessing that he is going to take up the striker position, I know he likes winger, but striker seems to fit more to this team and in that case things could go veeeery good for him.

All positions in football are equally important because if one of them is weak, it will certainly make the club ineffective.
Sometimes we talk too much about the attackers that we forget that other positions are no less important.
Now the composition of players owned by Real Madrid can be said to be quite stable compared to the composition of players owned by Barcelona.

They must find a replacement for Cancelo. Some at the club may be able to fill in, but they are not as good as Cancelo. I find it's not hard for Barcelona to rotate their players. They could also pick a potential player from their La Masia academy.

Barcelona has good resources not to rely on the same players all the time. Their young talent is potentially to be mentioned as playing in La liga.

Actually, the players from the La Masia academy owned by Barcelona are also quite good and that is proven by several players who are promoted. But sometimes I also wonder why now they prefer to look for foreign players where the financial condition is also unstable and continue to be forced to recruit foreign players.
Barcelona should solve the financial problem and do not need to rush to make similarities with Real Madrid which has much better financial capabilities.
Barcelona has good talent in the young players, but they need time and playing opportunities to gain good experience.

It is not impossible for Barcelona to take players from their own academy to strengthen the Barcelona team next season, but if you look at other big teams that are already strong enough in several competitions, of course not all of their players are young. Because any team also really needs several players who already have experience and are also not too old to be relied on as main players in a team. But if the young players from the academy will certainly need more time for them to be able to develop, while Barcelona itself really wants the La Liga trophy and also the Champions League again next season.

Lol... they have their  major setback to be financial status but atleast they're making effort to turn that...

Barcelona's financiall will never improve. If Barcelona always tries to keep their players, and let them leave from the club as free agent. Barceloa is not good financially, and they shall have changed their transfer strategy. I appreciate that Barcelona tried to strengthen their squad. But, look at their finances.
A few times Barcelona took economic lever, but it hasn't helped them a lot. Laporta must be sensible. They must sell their players if a club wants to buy them for a very high price.

Also, Barcelona never tried to fix its financial troubles. Instead, they bought players at high prices and then sold them at a loss.

Barca can't sell dejong because he's valuable to the club, his impact was felt last year after he had injury and do did Gavi not long,Flick seem to have interest in Roque which might not make the club to sell him at the moment

If Barcelona keeps refusing to sell their player, then just wait till this club goes bankrupt. The club's finances are more important than keeping a key player. Barcelona can take De Jong's replacement from its academy.

[Polkeins]

Despite the fact that now Barcelona is experiencing financial difficulties it is still a strong brand and it is still prestigious to play for Barcelona, although not as prestigious as it was 7-10 years ago, but still Barcelona was able to win La Liga 2 years ago and last season finished second and will play in the Champions League. The squad itself is not bad, but it lacks a good coach and I do not think that Flick is the right candidate for the club, rather he was hired just because there was not enough money for other famous coaches.
If Barcelona manage to sell Gundogan and buy Williams and Olmo with the proceeds from this deal, it will be a good breakthrough for the club in terms of transfers.

If I may assume, I don't think Gundogan will be released by Barcelona. Moreover, apart from his low transfer value, this player is the player with the most consistent performance last season, and is quite familiar with Hansi Flick, Barcelona's new manager. There are other names who have worked with Hansi Flick, namely Lewandowski and Ter Stegen. For me personally, although I have not seen Flick's performance over Barcelona, ​​but with the experience and records he has, Barcelona has good hopes under his guidance. Flick might give a different touch to Barcelona, ​​I mean he has different characteristics from Xavi who previously handled Barca. Flick is also a coach who carries attacking football, he has many tactics and strategies that he can apply to Barcelona.

We agree that Barcelona is a club that provides a strong attraction for players to join, even though Barcelona is not as successful as before. Plus the financial problems they are currently experiencing are often a hot topic among football lovers. In addition, we agree, if Nico Williams joins Barcelona, ​​at least it will provide a good breakthrough in this transfer window. unfortunately, the financial problems they face are still a major obstacle. although, Fabrizio Romano had reported regarding Laporta's statement in the past week. I am just waiting for every further development, while also giving support as a Barcelona supporter.

Flick wants to sell Gundogan because he doesn't like Gundogan's performance as a leader, although I think it's just an excuse to get rid of the player. Gundogan gets 20 million euros a year and if you sell him to Saudi or Qatari clubs, you can get 60-80 million and that's on a fairly modest scale. Just this money may be enough to buy Williams, besides he wants to stay in Spain, but Olmo may not have enough money and everything will depend on Saudi and Qatari clubs, how much they can buy Gundogan.

Flick is a good coach and Bayern's success is proof of that, but he didn't do very well with the German national team and it's also a great luck for him that Barcelona believe in his coaching talent.

[hyudien]

Finally this July Real Madrid will play a friendly match against AC Milan (July 31), against Barcelona on August 4 and it should be remembered specifically for this match even though the title is a friendly match but because when the two teams meet they always make their match a decisive match, well, as long-time rivals, these two clubs will meet each other will be equally prestigious and want to show their best game. Then on August 7 Madrid will face The Blues London and end with the UEFA Super Cup Final match bringing together the Champions League Champion vs the Europa League Champion on August 15. After that on August 16 La Liga will start again and we can't wait to see the development of each team where I want to see Girona whether it will have a better format than last season or vice versa.

I was waiting Mbappe debut for Real Madrid on pre season tour but still not confirmed Mbappe will including to Real Madrid squad for pre season matches or not because after defend France in Euro Cup currently Mbappe still on vacation and some of source has been mentioned that Mbappe probably will not make his debut match on pre season tour because just like i said above Mbappe still on vacation

Mbappe's debut with Real Madrid is one of the most anticipated debuts, and we are not sure yet which match he will make his debut with Real Madrid. Since he was officially introduced by Real Madrid, we are looking forward to the next thing, namely seeing Mbappe's game with the Spanish giants. I hope he can adapt quickly with the other Real Madrid players, I think that's not a problem because seeing his abilities can be said to be sufficient to be able to adapt quickly. He will also have a coach who is good at reading the character of a player, so that is expected to help him to be able to be in his best form as soon as possible. Real Madrid is dominated by many young players, there are various characters of players in this one squad and also young players with unstable emotions, so I'm pretty sure Ancelotti can handle that.

[topbitcoin]

I too believe on Anceloti and he is not the kind of person that do too much, if it's not going to favour him, he will know from onset, Mbape is a big project for Real Madrid and he is going to deliver until 2026 which I think he might want to retire possibly. I'm not sure if he is ever going to work elsewhere after Real Madrid.

When talking about age, we can see that the situation of Ancelotti does seem like he wants to spend time in Madrid by retiring there because it is not possible for him to find a new club or team at the age of 65 this year.
But on the other hand, this is Ancleotti who is indeed with all the charm he has which is even difficult to guess what movements he will make.

Previously we were even fooled by rumors that were quite hype at that time when Ancelotti was made the coach of the Brazilian National Team and even that was reinforced by several statements from several people in power in Brazil but in the end he remained in Madrid by extending the contract even though the duration was not too long.
It could be that before 2026 when his contract expires there will be some things that happen and maybe he will also retire. But I don't think retirement is a problem especially when he has experienced so many things including now coaching Madrid with all the benefits he has.

[Frankolala]

But sometimes I also wonder why now they prefer to look for foreign players where the financial condition is also unstable and continue to be forced to recruit foreign players.

But if the young players from the academy will certainly need more time for them to be able to develop, while Barcelona itself really wants the La Liga trophy and also the Champions League again next season.

Barcelona are only dreaming if they have it in mind that they can win Laliga and UCL next season with the players in their team because I don't see how possible that will be when Real Madrid has most of the players that can destruct Barcelona motive next season.

It is not all the players from Barcelona academy that will be able to perform well in the senior team because they are still young lads with low experience in senior competitions. Yamal was able to withstand the senior team because he is outstanding and has an adult football season. Let Barcelona finds a means of building the team to be very strong instead of thinking of how they can win leagues next season.

Xavi has unearthed a lot of talent and Pedri, Ferran Torres, Lamine Yamal and other young Spanish players were largely unearthed by Xavi but unfortunately Real were incredibly good last season.
De jong is a great player, but he has the biggest salary not only in Barcelona, but also in La Liga in general, besides injuries risk to break his career, although it should be noted that at his position he is one of the best in the club. Another problem of De Jong is his contract, which expires in 2026 and he does not want to extend it, which also does not add Barcelona confidence in the player.
No one will sell Roque just because there will be only Lewandowski in the attack, which is very dangerous, so I think that Roque will be left in the lineup in the near future.

Are you talking about Real's first official match against Atalanta for the UEFA Super Cup? Before that, Real will have some good friendlies against Milan, Barcelona and Chelsea, I think Ancelotti will see what condition the players are in and decide who will get a place in the starting lineup. I think Mbappe should show himself well in these friendlies and preferably score, and the Super Cup will be an opportunity for Mbappe to win a trophy in his first official match, and the UEFA Super Cup will be a very significant trophy, so the motivation for Mbappe will be high.

It is likely that Mbappe can win his first trophy with Real Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup match because against Atalanta I think it is not that difficult for Real Madrid, in terms of quality these two teams have quite a striking difference.

Real Madrid's friendly match before facing Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup match I think is not that important but for Mbappe it might have a little influence to be able to adapt with his teammates and I think Ancelotti knows enough about what the team needs and overall the Real Madrid squad does not have many changes except for a few additional players that could possibly increase the strength of this team.

For me personally, bringing a star to any team doesn’t necessarily mean that he will perform well or better than the previous Real Madrid players that use to play in his position now. We are happy to see Mbappe with the team but he is not better than anyone else there, and without good preparation or following the coach tips, this player will be as any other failed transfer, as we have seen before with Hazard, Messi in PSG and many others.

I believe in Ancelotti’s vision towards many players, even though I was against him last couple seasons when he failed to prepare a strong team with all the good players back then. Now he is doing better and took good time to achieve this level with such players.

Real Madrid should take this chance and talent to add more strength on the attacking lines without forgetting the other players, defensive lines and midfield.
