La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Abu-Naim]

Finally and after days of seeing rumors about Nico Williams and other teams like Barcelona and PSG it seems this player is going to stay in Bilao for a longer time. Maybe it was a smart decision for this player because Nico Williams is still young and in Bilao he can have more chances to get improve and play in this player than other teams like Barcelona. While playing for Barcelona nad moving to this team could be a big risk for the player.
He sent a message to fans of Bilbao and said he is ready to start next season in this team.

This message will be a prof that the player is still interested to stay in the team, since he has gurantee his fans that he is set for next season with team.

Barcelona and PSG will have to withdraw their offers because the players has stated it clear that he wants to stay with Bilabao for another season.
This player can still leave because I don't trust players again, they can change their mind at anytime, but I will also wants him to add one more season at Bilbao so as to move next season, or he can even leave during the January transfer window.

I think they made very good transfers. Gallagher, Sørloth and Alvarez are players who will strengthen the team. There were no major problems in the defense area, but I still think they will make a few transfers in this area and end the transfer window. Atletico Madrid will have a promising year for La Liga.

Atletico this season is a little different from previous seasons, they brought in some newcomers even with quite expensive price tags. However, it is clear that their goal is to make Madrid's city rivals more competitive than the previous season. But in fact, Atletico has many names who play in the striker position, I don't know if some of them will leave. For example, Angel Correa, I don't have much information about him. Besides that, Atletico still has Griezmann, even though he is already 33 years old. One more name, Joao Felix's status is still unclear. Will he be loaned, or just fill the bench in Simeone's squad. There is still a lot that I haven't learned about Atletico Madrid, but their activeness in the summer transfer window makes it a little more exciting. At least even though Real Madrid is much more favored, Atletico will not let their city rivals run smoothly. Honestly, I can't wait for the 2024/25 season to start soon.

Atletico Madrid seems to have big ambitions to win La Liga next season judging by the way they have built their squad so far. They are expected to become stronger after bringing in some of these players, so their rivalry with Real Madrid and Barcelona will be really good in the future. Of course, Real Madrid is still better in terms of squad depth, but Atletico Madrid might be able to compete and become a stumbling block in Real Madrid's efforts to defend the title.

Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are the 3 favorites for the title next season, so I would put Atletico Madrid in second place instead of Barcelona. I'm not underestimating Barcelona and the depth of their squad, but Atletico Madrid have a good squad.

Currently ATM already has several new players and ATM plan is not only that but indeed since long ago this team has always wanted to compete with Madrid and currently the plan is not only to give difficulties to Madrid but also wants to take the opportunity when Barcelona is currently having difficulty getting new players and ATM tries to seize the runner up position from Barcelona and may also have the desire to shift Real Madrid position. And on the one hand not only that but ATM has a dream to be able to fight strongly to compete in the UCL. So currently continue to look for players who have good talent quality to continue to strengthen the squad and try to get a new history.

[Oluwa-btc]

I don't know why Manchester City let Alvarez go. He is a good player now. And in the last two matches we have seen Alvarez perform well in crucial matches.

However, adding Alvarez to the squad will undoubtedly strengthen Atletico Madrid's attack. Atlético Madrid's attack was very strong last season though. Despite having talented players like Griezmann, Depay and Correa, we don't see great performances from Atletico Madrid's attacking players. So I would say Atletico Madrid's weakness is in their match strategy. If the match strategy does not improve, we will not get the expected performance from the Atletico Madrid players.

Pep Guardiola never wanted Julian Alvarez gone but, Julian Alvarez stated his mind clearly that he wants to play more games than he did last season. Everybody will be forced to agree with you on that. What last two games would that be? Copa America?

Atletico Madrid saw Alvaro Morata leaving without extending his contract so, it was the right thing to get a player to replace Alvaro Morata. It wasn't good enough. Alavaro wasn't consistent and didn't get up to 20 goals in La Liga Competition. Memphis Depay and Correa are not players that are also consistent. You don't count on such players truthfully.

Diego Simeone can be very defensive but the same attacking wise. Let's see if. Joao Felix stays, then I cannday that, they jave plans to play attacking football next season. Diego Simeone is notba bad coach, hopefully, he'll fight for La Liga next season. They've got a solid squad, but can they depend on Griezmann for creativity? The European Championship displayed he is not too creative. In two weeks, we'll see what happens.

[Weawant]

Of course, if the players are not good, there is nothing the coach can do. The coach gives the best tactics, but if the quality of the players is not suitable for this, the result will be disappointing. The players at Atletico Madrid are of great quality. Simeone is also a great coach. I believe they will be in the race for the championship in the new season. Although it is very difficult for them to become champions, of course there is a chance that they will finish the league in second place. La Liga will be very difficult this year. Atletico made very good transfers and as far as I can see, they are ready for the new season.

But unfortunately people rather blame coaches for the incompetence of the players than they would on the players, I'm always of the opinion that coaches shouldn't be blamed always rather there should be a balance because sometimes the coach could have a very brilliant tactics and strategy yet the players may not be in their best form and perform way less than expected of them and that will then appear like the coach was the one who got it all wrong. Atletico got good quality players but they are in a very competitive league so the expectations on them should be lowered because it definitely can't be met easily.

The boy made a good decision by leaving Manchester City and going to Athletico Madrid because he is still young, Guadiola has many players that he prefers over Alvarez, and the boy does not have enough time to play on the pitch; now that he has moved to Athletico Madrid, he will have more opportunities to play on the pitch because Morata is no longer with the club, and Athletico Madrid will be stronger by acquiring young talented players. Am sure Athletico Madrid will be on the rise with Madrid and Barcelona of winning the La Liga next season. Athletico Madrid has always had success against Real Madrid, they combat them very well, but Barcelona has gotten a chance on them, so next season will be a big struggle. I like how clubs are merely recruiting players to make the competition tougher for the clubs. Let's see who will be the favorite to win the La Liga next season, but Real Madrid or Barcelona are generally the greatest, but I believe they will have another challenge from some of the other clubs in the league.

[Dzwaafu11]

The strength of a squad depends on the quality of players in a club. Atletico Madrid have made some sacrifices and this season should be a good one for them. Having Julian Alvarez in the attack is a very big motivation for any te that have been struggling in the attack and to make a lot of wins which was previously caused by lack of concern and support for the team in the frontline. Atletico Madrid should be a major contender in the league title in their next season, they shouldn’t misuse this opportunity .

Everything about the club will always be determined by the players, without the players there won't be the club so the players matters a lot. Atletico Madrid actually made some good sanctifies, but sometimes is not about sacrifice always. Performance makes the whole thing go round. It's to early to know whether this season is going to be good for them because their is a lot of time to be able to decide that, and we have forgotten that their other tougher clubs out their that want the same thing that Atletico Madrid wants. Julian Alvarez Is a good option and I don't even know why Manchester City is letting him go. Pep should have a reason for our forwarder. So now that they have Julian Alvarez so their attack will definitely improve so the improvement is something that will definitely happen in Atletico Madrid. And now that their attacks have been better then even their game will improve and they will do something tangible this season because that is the reason they got Julian Alvarez, a lot of people have a lot of expectations on this coming season.

Actually, the players are the everything in the club without the better squad in the club matter how the Coach of the club good reach, they will never bring out anything better for the club. Because even though the club make his own determination the players didn’t fellow up nothing will do well in the club, this coming season will be very tough that’s why everybody is putting many expectations this on upcoming season because many clubs teams are trying to sign better squad to make their team become better for them to make good attacks in the competition.

Regardless of how good a coach will be, players are the first and the main priority of a team. A coach cannot show how skilled he is still without good players. So a good squad matters a lot; it cannot be possible without good players. Take a look at Manchester City Coach (Pep Guardiola). He is good, but the reason why he is recognized as the best coach is because of his players. They are able to achieve everything he wants for him, and so that is why players first.

I think they made very good transfers. Gallagher, Sørloth and Alvarez are players who will strengthen the team. There were no major problems in the defense area, but I still think they will make a few transfers in this area and end the transfer window. Atletico Madrid will have a promising year for La Liga.

It is undeniable that the presence of Julian Alvarez, Sorloth and maybe Gallagher will almost certainly make Atletico better in terms of performance, especially these 3 players are quite good in terms of experience and appearance even though Sorloth was only seen last season.

Atletico began to improve themselves and it was certainly a notice for several big clubs including Madrid and Barcelona. Although we know the rivalry between Madrid and Barcelona almost every season adorns the league but still the presence of Atletico can add to the competitive especially it looks like Simeone is serious about La Liga next season after in some seasons they are quite stuck in place after getting the La Liga title even Atletico is quite rare to be able to compete for the trophy again because there are always problems they face in terms of performance.

[Mame89]

That line up looks decent. This is because Atletico Madrid is gonna have two new hard-working players. Diego Simeone did everything right. Atletico Madrid is not using their money to get Gallagher from Chelsea. The same goes for Chelsea, who have almost the same money as Gallagher's price.
Gallagher will fit with ATM's gameplay. Atletico Madrid often played a defensive and focused on counter-attacking strategy. Sørloth is a good pair for Alvarez.  Atletico Madrid could use Alvarez as a false nine or an AM. The current lineup looks very balancing.

I think they made very good transfers. Gallagher, Sørloth and Alvarez are players who will strengthen the team. There were no major problems in the defense area, but I still think they will make a few transfers in this area and end the transfer window. Atletico Madrid will have a promising year for La Liga.

I used to not know why I always saw Atletico Madrid owner and Diego Simone only wanted his club to make big profits from player sales, by buying cheap players, but after the player was trained by Diego Simone, he became good again after that if the player's performance improved, then he was sold at a high price. I also thought, Atletico considered the championship trophy not important, the important thing was to qualify for the Champions League, stay in La Liga and only be number three in La Liga because they were always under Real Madrid and Barcelona.

However, after seeing Atletico Madrid's movements in this transfer market by buying players like Gallagher, Sorloth, and Alvarez, of course it made Atletico Madrid's squad stronger and my assessment of Atletico Madrid changed. Because seeing the transfers made by Atletico Madrid, the competition for the La Liga title will be even tighter, smart transfers and in accordance with the team's shortcomings. So I think Atletico Madrid next season really wants to prepare a good squad to face the competition with Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​​​and Girona.

BREAKING: Portuguese defender Pepe announces retirement

Portuguese football has lost one of its most important players. The legendary Pepe, at 41 years of age, announced his retirement from professional football on Thursday. The former defender announced his decision in a video on his official channels.

It's the right thing for Pepe because with his age it's very good for him to leave the world of football as a professional athlete although maybe later he won't be able to quit football completely but it's appropriate for him to leave with pride at this time.

He's a pretty good player although his performance on the pitch may seem harsh because of his tackling and play but he was one of the players I recognized when I was in Madrid.
He's also one of Portugal's legends and I don't think it's wrong for him to retire and continue his life in peace with his family without having to compete on the pitch.  Although we will definitely miss Pepe's way of playing, I appreciate the decision he has made.

Pepe's career is not only measured by the trophies he has won but also by his fighting spirit, passion, and relentless dedication. He has become an inspiration to generations of young players and is respected by fans around the world. Pepe is a great example. He ended his illustrious career with 878 matches, winning a total of 34 titles.
One thing that makes many people wonder is why a 41-year-old player like Pepe always wins a main position in the Portuguese squad. Even though Pepe is not in my prime anymore, even though Pepe not playing well. And I don't know the answer either.

Cristiano Ronaldo has joined the wave of messages expressing his love and gratitude for his close friend Pepe.

[TelolettOm]

Both Sørloth and Le Normand are great talented players. And their quality last season was very good, especially Sørloth, one of top scorer La Liga after Dovbyk. And now, Atletico Madrid is still awaiting for the signing contract with Julián Álvarez, top attacker of Man City.

I don't know if Atlético Madrid became stronger or if the opponent was extremely weak, conceding 6 goals against Atlético Madrid is really funny. Atletico Madrid's first official game will be against Villareal. We will see in this game how much Atlético Madrid has improved

I think both. The opponent is quite weak and Atletico Madrid has a good level of performance improvement. They even immediately fielded Sorloth in this match, and even scored 2 goals in a span of 2 minutes in the 7th and 8th minutes.

Check this statistic:

Although Kitchee had ball possession that was not much different from Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid's effectiveness was much higher, their attacks were very effective.

[Leviathan.007]

 You make a valid point. The essence of bringing in Mbappe is to strengthen their attack and knowing how goal driven he is, the Frenchman will want to do everything to show the fans that he's got the stuff that made him great at PSG and as well will try to make it possible that with the help of his teammates they remain top of their league. In all it's safe to say this new season will be hot, with competition here and there but I have the belief that Diego Simeone will want a change to the status quo since it had been quite a while(11 years) to be precise when they last lifted the league title.

with mbappe leaving psg is the right step if he is indeed ambitious to aim for the champions league trophy or others, real madrid can make it all happen, with the current el real player line-up, any achievement can be achieved.

la liga is indeed said to be a tight competition, and every competition held there from time to time shows competition, in every season there are always surprises that occur we must admit,
like atletico madrid this season they are preparing la liga more seriously by bringing in several players, yes changes must be made diego simeone at this time, considering he is an irreplaceable coach at atletico. and diego has not been able to provide the champions trophy until now, during his time at ATM he was only able to present the la liga trophy 2 times. but when talking about football anything is possible and the opportunity to become a champion is still possible.

Mbappe finally left and he started playing in Real Madrid however it took a long time since he finally started playing and training for Real Madrid.
But after years finally we saw Mbappe wearing shirt of Real Madrid and training with this team. He is training with other players of Real Madrid like Jude Bellingham and doing physical training. Mbappe got only one week for training in Real Madrid and got ready for the important match with Fiorentina.
 

[Leviathan.007]

Hiring Nico Williams was a pain for Barcelona and he was not an easy option for Barcelona as they were expecting for it. Bilbao wants to keep this player in the team and PSG also wants to hire to this player and since PSG is a rich team and they got more money they can hire this player before Barcelona or other teams.
Now Barcelona is considering other players like Kingsley Coman and if they can't find Williams they will hire Kingsley Coman instead of this Spanish player.
Kingsley Coman can be easier for Barcelona because Bayern Munich will let Kingsley Coman leave.

For a player who reached the semi finals stage of the recently concluded European Championship with his country France, it was  expected for Kylian Mbappe to take a holiday break so he can have his time for a short vacation and now that his holiday time is over, Kylian Mbappe have finally joined the Real Madrid squad to train ahead of next season which will kickoff next week. Kylian Mbappe isn't the only Real Madrid player who didn't participate in the club's preseason as we saw that his compatriots Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchoumeni as well as Carvajal and Jude Bellingham were all exempted because of their participation in the UEFA Euros Championship.
The new season is almost upon us and Real Madrid players are all back to training. I expect them to dominate Spanish La Liga come next season

Oh no guys, it's not Fiorentina but Atalanta that they have to face in the UEFA Super Cup, Madrid of course now has a luxurious squad, especially with the arrival of Mbappe will make them add new strength to their attack line, and for me with his training in Madrid he can feel Antonio Pintus because he has to go through that lesson because Madrid really focuses on stamina, talking about him in Madrid and there is a leak that he will take a free kick, of course this is a good start for him to be trusted as a free kicker so for him to have entered that quickly in the player situation so it is not difficult for him to start a good next season with his dream team Real Madrid. And in the final later I hope he can give his best for the club and of course for himself by scoring goals and bringing home the first Super Cup trophy in his career, yes we know he is very hungry for trophies and he needs it so the best for Mbappe and this training session is running so that no one gets injured so he can play better with a luxurious squad in the Super Cup and a bright next season.

Mbappe is the player Florentino Perez wants the most, he has been hunting him for the past few seasons because his quality is considered capable of being a suitable replacement for Benzema. Now that the player has joined the Real Madrid squad, he has started training with his teammates to maintain his fitness before the season starts. Ancelotti is preparing for the new season to start, the quality that Real Madrid currently has can put great pressure on their opponents because the line-up of players that Ancelotti has is very frightening.

All lines are filled with quality players and they are always hungry for victory, Mbappe presence can also increase the sharpness of Ancelotti squad. They must maintain their quality to repeat last season's success and give Mbappe the chance to lift a trophy in his first season at Real Madrid.

Kingsley Coman can be easier for Barcelona because Bayern Munich will let Kingsley Coman leave.

Actually, Kingsley Coman could be an alternative choice for Barcelona considering his transfer fee and salary are not as big as Nico Williams who is currently difficult for Barcelona to recruit him, but his bad injury record must be considered carefully by the club because Barcelona also does not want that to happen if the club has recruited him, the club will feel disadvantaged because last season Barcelona had experienced this problem, therefore the club must think carefully about bringing in this player, maybe Barca only dares to take the loan option from Bayern Munich if Barca really wants to use his services.

In addition, Chelsea is also interested in this player but it seems that the player is showing more interest in Barcelona considering that Kingsley Coman was once trained by Hansi Flick while at Bayern Munich and it seems that he is more suitable to be trained by this coach than the Bayern Munich club coach in the last few seasons.

[Litzki1990]

Bilbao will not be able to keep Williams for a long time and is facing with pressure from big clubs this summer. If they won't lose Williams this summer, they will lose him in future like next one, two or three seasons. Because Bilbao is a small club and in modern football, most of players are not loyal with a single club. They will move to bigger clubs to have better income from salary, shirt sales, advertisement rights and have better opportunities to win trophies.

Bilbao is definitely a small club and they sign players who don't play in big clubs in Europe but who start playing football at an early stage. Nico Williams has performed well in the Euro tournament and his age is so young that the big clubs in Europe are now eager to sign him. 
Now that there is a good demand for this player in the market, even if he does not want to leave the club, this player should go to a big club in Europe. However, whichever club he decides to go to, he must make a thoughtful decision because if the club signs him now, he will be signing a long-term plan agreement, so he will not have much of a chance to leave the club until the end of the stipulated period. There are clubs who deal with young players and who have developed young players to a good stage in their careers, so Nico Williams should be interested in signing a contract with them.
