La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Obari]

Real crazy spend of money by Real Madrid if some rumours are true, some people are talking about they want to steal one more Liverpool key player, for sure Liverpool doesn't want to let him leave after losing Trent Alexander Arnold and other key players by misfortune.

I'm talking about Real Madrid asking for McAllister. They are talking for a ton of money, I can see Real Madrid seeing him as the new Luka Modric.

Real Madrid president, Florentino Pérez is more keen on bringing new players to his club. He's very ambitious towards ensuring he's sealing every important moves to sign prominent players. We do know something is certain, Real Madrid will always be the outstanding club in Europe because they've what it takes to reach the very top without excuses. It just happen that they're having a poor season, this is the crucial time other oppositions has to accumulate more accolades and lift major trophies.

Real Madrid keeping a close watch on MacAllister, the Argentina international is a professional player that's keen on making an impact, he wouldn't relent or sit back when his side is not having a great time. I think he will fit into the Real Madrid but I don't think Liverpool will give the Spanish giant a chance or even a greenlight.

McAllister has no intention to leave. He's staying in Liverpool much longer. Even if Real is willing to spend like more than 100m for him, i'm sure they will not get him as Liverpool will be so reluctant to sell him. He's the tempo setter of Liverpool. It's crazy to sell him.

That's what you think, I read that Real Madrid is preparing around €120 millon for his services. Liverpool will cash in on him in other to raise funds for the purchase of Isak because they took are eyeing that striker to strengthen their attack. It's business once the price is right there's a big possibility that the deal will pull through unless maybe Real Madrid does not really want to buy.

Ancelotti cannot be blamed for everything that has happened he is a great and experienced coach, the decline that occurred in Real Madrid last season was due to the injury factor of his mainstay players, especially several Real Madrid defenders who suffered long injuries so that Madrid's defense line looked weak and Ancelotti also did not try to recruit players to replace him because Ancelotti felt he could overcome the problem but in fact could not completely overcome the problem and now he left Real Madrid with an open gap now Xabi Alonso who continues Ancelotti's work and must immediately fix the problems in the team so that this season Real Madrid can compete with Barcelona fiercely.

Ancelotti was a hostage to circumstances, any team would have suffered from such an abundance of injuries. In addition, he did not have much Yes from the management to rebuild the team. He won the golden double literally with Joselu. The team's problems have accumulated and Xabi has all the powers to solve them. Now it looks like no excuses will be justified if there is no result (at least the La Liga title).

Injury is something we can’t avoid, and that is why I didn’t blame Ancelloti last season that much, because the players were not very strong to some extent. And I felt like Ancelloti was just trying his possible best to see that things went well for Real Madrid last season, but due to the injury, he couldn’t do that, and they were expecting him to continue with the available squad to get to the top.

Xabi Alonso has come in now as the manager, and I can see that many are hyping his experience with the coaching stuff. Let’s see what will happen next season. We already see a defeat they got by PSG, but since that one is CWC, let’s wait for the main thing we are waiting for to see if Xabi Alonso can’t resist the criticism and challenges in La Liga and the Champions League.

If it is true that Real Madrid wants to go for him then this is the mistake Madrid Continue to make because they already have a good striker,  they may just be adding too many young talents that may turn out to conflict positions because that will be two strikers who are just too good and will want to make the numbers for their name which may in turn affect the team  at some point.  Liverpool will be making a good move if they raise that fund and get isak it will be to their best interest.

You make good point that if Real Madrid brings in another great young striker they might create problem where two talented players fight for same spot which could hurt  team later on. This is common issue for rich clubs that want all best young players as it is tough to keep everyone happy and playing enough.
However your idea about Liverpool buying Isak makes much of sense. If they can afford him striker like him could really help them especially if he fits clear need without causing  same kind of team problems Real Madrid might face. What team needs right now can be just as important as how good player is on their own.

Atlético Madrid is only fighting for third place. Even when they have a good squad, they manage to make disasters just when they need to be consistent. No matter how many signings they make, the result will always be the same:

1 - They won't win La Liga.

2 - The players they signed will lose their skills and leave the team.

I've seen these two scenarios every La Liga season. In my opinion, these three players are going to destroy their careers at Atlético Madrid. I sincerely hope they reach agreements with other, better clubs in the next transfer window. If they stay at Atlético Madrid, they won't achieve anything.

Yes, that's Atletico Madrid. They've been struggling to win trophies in La Liga, and sometimes I wonder why. I remember last season, Atletico Madrid consistently performed well until mid-season, but for some reason, they suffered numerous defeats as the season drew to a close.

Looking at Atletico Madrid's fate, which has consistently been like this, it would certainly be better if their star players left. It would certainly be difficult for Atletico Madrid to win the title, given Simeone's playing style and tactics, which are distinct from other coaches. Simeone's technique is excellent, but he certainly has a few shortcomings. He sometimes seems to rely too much on counterattacks, which makes it difficult for Atletico Madrid to achieve consistent wins, especially against strong teams.

But of course it does need better technique if Atletico Madrid wants to win because of course, Real Madrid and Barcelona are difficult opponents to beat. But of course it does not rule out the possibility that next season Atletico Madrid will rise and finally be able to win the trophy because of course sometimes a surprise can always happen. But of course as long as Real Madrid and Barcelona are in their best form, it will be difficult for Atletico Madrid to win. Of course, in this case, the decision is in the hands of each player, but indeed for Atletico Madrid's star players, they can do that, such as leaving Atletico Madrid to a team that they think can win the trophy.

But I think it would be even crazier if Liverpool accepted the offer. Losing Mac Allister would be like losing one of the heart of Liverpool's game. I can't even see Liverpool finding a replacement if they accept Real Madrid's offer.

And the news I've received is that Liverpool doesn't seem interested in such a large offer. This suggests Liverpool know that losing Mac Allister would benefit financially, but they would also suffer the loss of one of their greatest players.
Despite this, Real Madrid doesn't seem to be giving up, and reportedly is even preparing to pay the player's release clause. This means Real Madrid will likely release one of its players to raise the funds.

However, the encouraging news for Liverpool is that Mac Allister himself doesn't seem interested in moving to another club, including Real Madrid. He's comfortable at Liverpool and seems to want to remain focused on the club.

I think Real Madrid have a lot of star players but they lack the players who can win matches. If you talk about one of the best and most expensive players in the world, Mbappé will be there but he has not been performing well recently. Consider Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo or Jude Bellingham, they are very good players but they are repeatedly failing to perform well for the team. It is a hot topic that despite having talented players, why Real Madrid is repeatedly failing and what should be the solution. Ultimately, the solution is to make adjustments within the team and bring about mental and tactical changes among the players. Carlo Ancelotti has left taking responsibility for the team failure and he has been replaced by Xabi Alonso. He has to find the problems in the team and solve them so that Real Madrid can be strong for the next season.

Real Madrid's attack does look good, but they are missing creative midfielders like Luka Modric and Toni Kroos. There are no capable replacements for these two players, so Real Madrid is still lacking in depth. If they had replacements like these, I believe Real Madrid's attack would be much more dangerous. That's why Real Madrid is now approaching other Liverpool players, realizing that this weakness needs to be addressed. Xabi Alonso's task at Real Madrid won't be easy as there are still many issues to overcome and if the squad isn't deep enough success in his first season will be difficult.

Liverpool is already placing a bid for Isaak even without selling MacAllister. Don't be delusional. Isaak is also in the transfer stance "NOT FOR SALE" by Newcastle. Importantly, they still have some players to be sold such as Nunez and Diaz if they need money.
PL club is not as poor as you think.

I disagree with you that Mbappe have failed to perform well in his team, despite the fact that Real Madrid had a bad season recently. Mbappe is the highest goal scorer in Laliga and you said that he has failed, I don't think so. How do you expect a club suffering from injury to perform well when most of the players are lacking the joint quality. Madrid cannot be the winner every season.

Real Madrid seems to be really keen on improving their team, as they've been trophyless this season, and this will undoubtedly be incredibly painful for a club like Real Madrid. If Real Madrid can bring in Allister, it will undoubtedly give them a strong midfielder, essentially replacing Modric, who has now left to continue his career at AC Milan. Honestly, I'm personally impressed with Real Madrid's efforts to improve their performance next season.

It's true, Liverpool certainly doesn't want to let Allister go, even with such a large offer. It's true, Allister seems more comfortable at Liverpool. In essence, I don't think Allister will ever join Real Madrid. I hope Real Madrid can find another great player who is ready to join Real Madrid. I hope Real Madrid can quickly find a replacement for Modric, as a strong midfielder is desperately needed to strengthen Real Madrid and ensure they can perform even better next season.

Real crazy spend of money by Real Madrid if some rumours are true, some people are talking about they want to steal one more Liverpool key player, for sure Liverpool doesn't want to let him leave after losing Trent Alexander Arnold and other key players by misfortune.

I'm talking about Real Madrid asking for McAllister. They are talking for a ton of money, I can see Real Madrid seeing him as the new Luka Modric.

Real Madrid will never have McAllister, I’m a Real Madrid fan and I’m very sure it will be impossible for Real Madrid to have McAllister, McAllister us a key to Liverpool Midfield and Liverpool will never let him leave even if Real Madrid offers 100 million, Real Madrid have made Liverpool their academy team where they can get any player they want, after Real Madrid got Arnold from Liverpool for free Real Madrid still wants Konate for free and as it stands now Konate did not want to sign a new contract in Liverpool and according to the rumours they said he has tell Liverpool that he wants to join Real Madrid.

Real Madrid president and the board are not serious when it comes to signing players, Real Madrid that I know before will always sign players they want with any amount, Real Madrid made a mistake by not signing a replacement for Toni Kroos and Modric, before those players should leave the club Real Madrid should have sign players that played like those men, Real Madrid has more than 4 midfielders and none of them are capable of controlling the midfield.

[Gallar]

Furthermore, speaking of Real Madrid, you're right. Real Madrid can't continue to rely on their aging defenders. Their performance is certain to decline and they are also prone to injury. Therefore, Real Madrid must bring in new defenders to strengthen their defense and improve. However, after I investigated, Real Madrid has actually brought in three new defenders: Dean Huijsen, Alvaro Carreras, and Alexander Arnold. All three players are quite formidable defenders. So Real Madrid should be able to strengthen their defense even more with these three new players.

Huijsen is a promising central defender while I don't know of Carreras and Trent does not have good defensive skills. Real Madrid surely knew defensive weakness of Trent and they perhaps plan to use Trent mainly for attacking support. Real Madrid will not accept to lose La Liga title to Barcelona again and they are improving their squad with new players.

Barcelona have a young team that can grow up more but their brightest star player Lamine Yamal shown some signals of being distracted by parties and unhealthy living styles. This can harm Barcelona attacking power in next seasons and give Real Madrid kind of good opportunity to not only challenge Barcelona but also take trophy back.

Yes, Huijsen is indeed the defender with the most outstanding abilities compared to the other defenders Real Madrid has brought in during this transfer window. However, I'm confident that the defenders Real Madrid has brought in this time will form a strong defensive wall. Real Madrid is a team with excellent analytical skills. So, they wouldn't have signed players without a clear vision if they hadn't shown promising performance. At first glance, it might be true that Alexander and Carreras aren't as good at defending as Huijsen. However, I'm very confident that under rigorous training at Real Madrid, both defenders will be able to unleash their best performances, ones that may not have been seen at their respective previous teams. So, I'm very confident in that.

As for Barcelona, they do have quite promising young players at the moment. La Masia is always ready to bring out young players with great talent. So, with that in mind, Barcelona's player resources are certainly very good and there's no doubt about it. Then, speaking of Yamal, who frequently throws parties and is often seen on vacation, I also assume this will negatively impact his performance on the field. However, Yamal is a very talented player. So, if he maintains a good training regimen, I think his performance will remain excellent. Besides, it's natural for Yamal to go on vacation and throw parties. Because now is the holiday season.

[MArsland]

I think Real Madrid have a lot of star players but they lack the players who can win matches. If you talk about one of the best and most expensive players in the world, Mbappé will be there but he has not been performing well recently. Consider Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo or Jude Bellingham, they are very good players but they are repeatedly failing to perform well for the team. It is a hot topic that despite having talented players, why Real Madrid is repeatedly failing and what should be the solution. Ultimately, the solution is to make adjustments within the team and bring about mental and tactical changes among the players. Carlo Ancelotti has left taking responsibility for the team failure and he has been replaced by Xabi Alonso. He has to find the problems in the team and solve them so that Real Madrid can be strong for the next season.

You should know that the transition from Ancelotti to Xabi wasn't easy, as the players are still trying to adjust to the new coach's tactics. Mbappe has just recovered from injury and missed a lot of training so it's no wonder why his performances have been less than impressive and he's still getting used to Xabi coaching style. When was with Ancelotti, you just had to dribble all you wanted and then put it in the net.

That's no longer the case in Xabi eyes and in the modern era of football, he wants all players to have more of a role than that to build the game from all directions. Vinicius and Mbappe when put together in the starting eleven are still always fighting over the ball, trying to stand out from the crowd. So it's Xabi  job now to bring them together so that they can work as a team, not as individuals.

Rodrygo is another victim who will inevitably be eliminated, his role in the main squad is getting thinner. Rodrygo's future is coming to an end and like it or not this is the reality.

Xabi Alonso's task at Real Madrid won't be easy as there are still many issues to overcome and if the squad isn't deep enough success in his first season will be difficult.

Modric was available against PSG but it didn't help them at all and you could see how often he started on the bench for Ancelotti so he wasn't going to play many games. And now he probably won't be able to compete with the young players so he decided to go to Milan. Alonso might want Liverpool players because they had a good season but Mac Allister wants to stay at Liverpool, not everyone will go to Real Madrid on free transfers (like Mbappe and Alexander-Arnold did) and Real Madrid obviously don't want to pay.

How do you expect a club suffering from injury to perform well when most of the players are lacking the joint quality. Madrid cannot be the winner every season.

Frankolala you are correct, Mbappe tried his best and like I always say that real Madrid tried and just because they didn't lift any trophy those not mean they are not inform they are inform, Mbappe being the highest goal scorer in la Liga shows that he really did his best so one can't say he failed to perform well, if I may ask if being the highest goal scorer in la Liga is not enough to prove that he tried and performed very well then what can prove that a striker performance was good in a season, Mbappe did a very nice job last season and he should keep it up.
From next season I believe real Madrid will perform much more better all they need to do now is train more as a team and corporate and they should support the coach in every possible way, the coach is a very good coach and I believe he will bring out the best in his players, hopefully next season they will lift one trophy, lifting the la Liga won't be easy because of Barcelona however let's see how it goes.

After failing at the club world cup, Bellingham is set to end its shoulder woes. Reportedly he will take a long break for shoulder surgery that has been suffered for almost 2 years. This condition is certainly an additional strength vulnerability. I don't know how many weeks Bellingham will rest, but I think he won't be able to start playing for the start of the season but prediction is October. But they do have a lot of cover although they still don't have much experience and hours in La Liga. Xabi still has Arda Guler, Brahim Diaz, Eduardo Camavinga, and Dani Ceballos.

Alonso used Bellingham in the Club World Cup in attack, so this will also be a chance for Rodrygo to get a place, although Mbappe is back in the game, so it is unlikely, except as a substitute. If everything is OK with the defenders, Valverde can return to the middle, but without Bellingham it will be difficult for some time, because he has become an important player in attack. And now there are also some conflicts with Vinicius because of his salary, so all this does not have a positive effect on the mood in the team.
