La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[G_Besar]

This year Barcelona should make a transfer instead of Lewandowski. Because it is unknown whether Lewandowski will perform as well this year. They can consider a good and young striker instead. Also, after Lewandowski leaves the team, this gap will be automatically filled. Robert Lewandowski did his best for Barcelona and he was really good this year. I really wonder who he will be with in the forward area next year. His partner will probably be transferred in the summer season this year.

Regeneration in the center striker position must be done immediately considering Lewandowski age is no longer young, automatically Barcelona cannot rely on him much longer. Ferran Torres who has been a substitute in this position, has not yet met the requirements to enter the main squad due to his unstable performance. Viktor Gyokeres, Julián Álvarez and Rashford have all been linked with Barcelona, ​​but there is no word yet on who will replace Lewandowski. Viktor Gyokeres is perhaps more deserving of his incredible performances this season.

I think it's not that important because currently there is still Raphinha who has proven to be quite good in his performance to cover the void in the front line when Lewandowski left.
Overall, the squad in the Barcelona team is currently quite capable in all lines, they only need to add a few to be used as backup so that when there is a player rotation it does not have a big impact on the team's performance and if they maintain that, I am quite optimistic that Barcelona next season can be better and more consistent.

indeed Lewandowski of course even though at the age of 36 if I'm not mistaken but he still has strong strength, but yes it is true I also have the same opinion as you that Barcelona is certainly very important to bring in a replacement player for Lewandowski so that when competing Lewandowski can play not 90 minutes full if for example he is tired and of course if a new player is prepared to replace Lewandowski of course that is a good thing and of course it is true considering that recently Lewandowski has been injured of course that makes Barcelona have to be able to bring in a replacement player for Lewandowski because of course it is possible that Lewandowski will be injured again.

yes I also see Gyokeres is indeed good to replace Lewandowski as well as Sorloth, but in my opinion it would be more suitable for Haaland because I am sure that the duet of Haaland, Yamal and Raphinha will create a good game. but of course we'll just see what happens later and now of course we'll just see who will replace Lewandowski and of course I hope Barcelona can choose the right player. I am really curious now about what Barcelona will do to strengthen their team in the future.

Replacing Lewandowski is never about swapping one big name for another. It is about rebuilding the whole attack. Flick system churns out chances, but not every striker can handle that. Lewa’s xG this year was almost identical to his goal tally, which means he was not overperforming. He was just constantly in the right spot thanks to the system. Plug in someone who rarely find space like that, and suddenly those 100+ goals as a team might drop fast

Sure, Yamal, Raphinha, and Haaland up front sounds great. But with the current financial state, that is as likely as Messi coming back and playing as a holding midfielder! Reality is, Barca probably go to gamble on a mix: Ferran as the surprise regular, maybe a little more false-9 action with Raphinha or Olmo, and keep testing the kids until someone pops

So yeah, it is more about smart adaptation than big spending. If Flick gets creative and those wingers keep firing, Lewa eventual exit will not mean the end of the world. It might actually open up a new era. And honestly? Barca fans should get used to seeing a different style up top, because the next No. 9 will never be a carbon copy of Lewandowski. Sometimes the best replacement isn’t a player

[Lannakosa]

I think it's not that important because currently there is still Raphinha who has proven to be quite good in his performance to cover the void in the front line when Lewandowski left.
Overall, the squad in the Barcelona team is currently quite capable in all lines, they only need to add a few to be used as backup so that when there is a player rotation it does not have a big impact on the team's performance and if they maintain that, I am quite optimistic that Barcelona next season can be better and more consistent.

Yes, Barcelona's current squad is very good, and the first thing I would pay attention to is of course the goalkeeper. I really hope that Ter Stegen returns to action soon because the team has clearly been missing him this season. Szczesny is a decent goalkeeper but clearly inferior in terms of class. Maybe it also makes sense to look for someone in the defensive line and yes, you need to have good squad depth. Flick has done an excellent job with the team and at the moment they are one of the strongest sides in Europe.

Szczesny saved Barcelona from a big chaos this year. If Barcelona became champions in the Spanish league and reached the semi-finals of the Champions League without any problems, they owe this to the goalkeeper. This long marathon could not have been continued with the substitute goalkeeper due to Ter Stegen's long-term injury. That's why the Polish goalkeeper who quit football returned to football with Barcelona and I think he made a good decision. We see that his reflexes are still sufficient for high-level games.

[Luzin]

Flick (Barcelona), Jose Bordalas (Getafe), Manolo (Espanyol), Manuel Pellegrini (Real Betis), Michel (Girona), Ernesto Valverde (Athletic Bilbao), and Diego Pablo Simeone (Atletico Madrid). Those are the names of the candidates for La Liga's best coach for this season, but today we already know Flick is the winner based on the votes. Do you agree with everything he's achieved this season?  Flik with Barcelona this season got 3 trophies. In La Liga he won twenty-eight, drew four and lost six. In Europe he scored 102 goals. I think these results are quite real, I also see that Flick is good.

Barcelona is a very strong team and you are very current right now they have good players that are performing very well but they need backup players just like you said.
Some teams feel so comfortable if they have good players and sometimes they forget that they need very good players also as backup because of injury, if for example two key Barcelona players have injury that will last for 2 months are there players that will replace those two key players and the team will not feel the impact of those players in injury.
Just like what happened in Manchester City I believe Rodri injury was part of the reasons Manchester city didn't perform very well this season and they had no replacement for him, if they had a replacement I don't think they would have suffered what they suffered this season.

Yes I believe Barcelona will come back more stronger next season, there target right now will be the champions League title and I believe they can lift it come next season.

[Tamaperdana]

So i check Lewa's statistic, and i find how he's reliable striker. He became the second of top scorer in La Liga after Mbappe, though he's 36 years old. This proves how calling it unreliable striker didn't even match to the reality.
He's the oldest among all of top strikers in La liga, but can still compete with Mbappe, which is on fire now.

I don't see in what stats he looked unreliable striker for you. His injury prone may be your concern. However, as long as he won't be injury, he's a good striker despite his age.

I agree with you, that Lewandowski is still worthy of being called a reliable striker in Barcelona. Because in fact he can still be a very sharp goal scoring machine at this time. Maybe if this season Barcelona did not have Lewandowski, I think his goal productivity would not be as much as it is now. Although unfortunately Lewandowski could not become the top scorer in La Liga this season, but this was due to the injury constraints he experienced. Maybe if Lewandowski did not experience an injury this season, I am really very sure that this season Lewandowski would be the top scorer in La Liga. But maybe this is the best for Lewandowski and most importantly this season he managed to bring Barcelona to win 3 trophies. So even though Lewandowski did not succeed in becoming the top scorer this season, but something more valuable is that he managed to bring his team to victory. So hopefully next season Lewandowski can show a much better performance so that he can become the top scorer in La Liga and can bring Barcelona to shine even more in international competitions.

Barcelona coach should concentrate more on the defense and the goal keeping which is the place that needs urgent attention next season, he's got a full squad that can defeat any team but looking at what their biggest rival Real Madrid is cooking they can't afford to face them with a leaping defense for next season. Their goal keeper Szczesny is trying despite not being as solid as Ter Stegen their number one keeper. Flicks should get a back up for the defense and also get another goal keeper to assist Szczesny until their number one keeper is back.

Personally, I will say that a backup goalkeeper, defense and an attacker to replace Lewandowski is needed, because his experience also contributes more value to Barcelona attacking force. Next season will be tougher than this season for them because Real Madrid will want to revenge what most clubs did to them this season and we can see how prepared they are for that.

Next season will be tougher than this season for them because Real Madrid will want to revenge what most clubs did to them this season and we can see how prepared they are for that.

With limited resources and funds I don’t think Barcelona can actually afford to sign so many players this summer. First if it is the goalkeeper then I think they can still actually make use of both Ter Stegen and Szczesny, since the former had return from his long time injury and the latter has been offered new contracts both can actually be able to help the team even though they are not on the top of their games, the money realized from selling Inaki Pena should go to reinforcements of other positions.

They can add a defender either a full back and a central defender or at least a central defender because many fans have lost faith in Araujo so another competition is likely coming to compete with Cubrasi and Martinez. Then there is the attacking options, they need a striker and a left winger in my opinion, Raphinha went out of position last season but we all know how empty that position is when he comes to his favorite position

Although unfortunately Lewandowski could not become the top scorer in La Liga this season, but this was due to the injury constraints he experienced.

Lewandowski is indeed 36 years old but his contribution to Barcelona is very high.
Runner up top scorer in La Liga with 27 goals, in UCL as many as 11 goals, and also in other matches.

And in the end he dismissed all rumors that Barcelona removed him because of age. In the end, he confirmed that he will still stay at Barcelona until 2026. He has won 30 titles and now he still wants more.

I'm much more concerning about how people called him as a washed striker while his statistic already denied people opinion about him as a finished striker. He scored a lot in La Liga and UCL. He is also still working so hard despite his age, which is 36 years old. It's proving how he's still a reliable player even though he's not young anymore.

It is certain that Lewandowski will stay with Barcelona next season. However, we do not know yet whether Lewandowski will extend his contract. Barcelona management is probably willing to extend the contract. Otherwise, Barcelona would have decided to sell Lewandowski this season. If Lewandowski becomes a free transfer next season, Barcelona will face financial losses.

Raphinha and Yamal have played very well this season. Even then, Lewandowski is Barcelona's regular scorer. Without Lewandowski, Barcelona's attack is a bit weak. Barcelona will not want to lose such a talented and experienced striker before finding a worthy replacement.

[bastisisca]

He left Bayern Munich when they thought he was old enough and would become more sensitive with injuries so they denied to satisfy his conditions for a new contract from its length to salary. At Barcelona, Lewandowski has spent recent years with considerable contributions for them and together they have won some big titles.

This season shows that Lewandowski can still play well but there is more signal of his worse physical fitness. He has become more sensitive with injuries and I believe it will be a trend in next years. Like other players, he can not win against ageing effects forever and we saw it with Ibrahimovic, Ronaldo and soon Lewy will have to face and fail with this challenge.

At his age, I think of a good adventure to Saudi Arabia, play there and enjoy good salary in very last years of his career. He has won many titles and has no regret to leave Europe now but with Barcelona, it will not be easy for them in replacement of Lewandowski.

I honestly don't think Robert Lewandowski has many more years left at the top, but he's still a great player.
A new adventure could certainly give him new input, after all Ronaldo and Inzaghi have also gone there
I don't see it as a stopgap, absolutely.

[LUCKMCFLY]

What are the criteria to follow when we spot good players? We know how much values these players mean for their perspective clubs. They're served with high level of improvement and virtue. Barcelona president, Joan Laporta is a very tactical president, he knows the club's been in total mess but that doesn't mean he's not making efforts to revived the club and putting them back on stands. Robert Lewandowski is a top attacker for Barcelona although he completed football when he was playing for Bayern Munich, he banged good number of goals and also lifted major trophies with the club.

I would say it’s not so much the issue with the players, it’s the coach, Hansi Flick is a guy who has taken advantage of every opportunity he’s been given at Barcelona, ​​he’s known how to take advantage of all the weaknesses of the other teams, so he’s very strategic, let’s just look at the UCL for example, they couldn’t win, but who won? A much more strategic coach and that’s Luis Enrique, who of all things, what I liked the most was that he had that victory, although the culés see that as a victory since he is very much a Barcelona fan.

16th January 2022, the date that changed everything for Sevilla. Also, the biggest circus seen in spanish football for a long long time. They went from being a good team to almost relegating, making a big joke out of the team. That was the exact date it happened.
Sevilla has only been known for being the Europa League Merchants in the 21st century for a long while now, which probably doesn't pressure enough to create a better stability in the club.

That's exactly how to perfectly describe the club's status. Although Sevilla, after the crucial 2-0 win against Espanyol last friday has been trying to prove themselves capable of ending on the top half of the table at 17th place barely escaping relegation, and to recover from it next season.

It seems that Sevilla's directors are trying to fix things so that next season they don't suffer like they did this season, at least that's what I see when I read news like this:

Sevilla and director Victor Orta part ways with immediate effect.

and if they focused on signing good cheap players, players who were very skilled but not very popular, that way they could build a team capable of competing for positions to access European competitions and they could also sell the good players for very high prices after they got far in European competitions. that way they would get money from European competitions and from the sale of players and the club would be financially healthy. in the next seasons they would continue doing the same thing: signing cheap players, talented young players

Flick (Barcelona), Jose Bordalas (Getafe), Manolo (Espanyol), Manuel Pellegrini (Real Betis), Michel (Girona), Ernesto Valverde (Athletic Bilbao), and Diego Pablo Simeone (Atletico Madrid). Those are the names of the candidates for La Liga's best coach for this season, but today we already know Flick is the winner based on the votes. Do you agree with everything he's achieved this season?  Flik with Barcelona this season got 3 trophies. In La Liga he won twenty-eight, drew four and lost six. In Europe he scored 102 goals. I think these results are quite real, I also see that Flick is good.

However, it is undeniable that Hansi Flick is the best coach this season in La Liga and other domestic competitions. However, in Europe he is one of them because the best coach this season in my opinion is Luis Enrique who was not only able to bring PSG to win their first trophy but they also managed to win a treble for PSG.

But back to Hansi Flick, it is quite surprising that it only took one season for Flick to be able to bring Barcelona back to dominate La Liga. This is quite extraordinary, because usually a coach who has just set foot in a different league needs to adapt first and will not show significant improvements to the club he is handling, but it seems not for Hansi Flick, he came and immediately showed his fangs as the best coach.

I think these results are quite real, I also see that Flick is good.

The managers of the various teams you mentioned here have already been defeated by the Barcelona manager because that Barcelona coach has already won the best award. My idea this German coach is incredibly talented because he has been able to consolidate the Barcelona team a lot. Moreover he helped Barcelona win three titles, for which he certainly deserves the title of best coach, everyone must admit that. I personally believe that this season was exceptional for Barcelona because they have been able to win the La Liga title this season by offering thrilling football maybe that's what will be expected from them next season as well.

[Stablexcoin]

I'm much more concerning about how people called him as a washed striker while his statistic already denied people opinion about him as a finished striker. He scored a lot in La Liga and UCL. He is also still working so hard despite his age, which is 36 years old. It's proving how he's still a reliable player even though he's not young anymore.

You mean Lewandowski is a washed striker, anyone who says his washed doesn't know a thing about football. Many things affect the performance of a player, the important factor is the age factor, this is similar in all players, advancing 40 years that is 34-38 years, there will be signs, if age is also affecting both Ronaldo and Messi as the best players what more to Lewandowski, despite the age factor he still did a lot of work in the team by scoring goals, nearly he would have finished with more goals in the season.

[ITExpert]

If you check his recent statistic, Lewandowski is no longer reliable. I think Barcelona have to looking for a new striker, they have few substitutes, but they need the main striker. Before it's too late, I'm sure the next season is the last season for Lewandowski.

Barcelona have Ter Stegen and Szczesny, they both are more than enough. They also have an amateur one which is Inaki Pena, he should be the future goalkeeper.

I don't agree with you at all that Robert Lewandoski is no longer a good striker or that Barcelona should replace him because if we look at the statistics it is clear that Robert is still a very good striker, but if we call him a goal machine, it would not be wrong that he is a little old now, but still his strike rate is very good. If we compare him with the new strikers, he is a very good striker and the  Barcelona team should completely rely on him because he is still completely reliable, but since he is also getting old now, I think Barcelona should start looking for a new striker so that the new striker can match the capabilities Robert has to some extent and he doesn't fail so much, but I think to say Robert Lewandoski is unreliable is completely wrong.
