La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[dezoel]

I wouldn't say that the ego and narcissism affects the whole team but is limited only to some players who we all know are the attackers and other players, one in particular Vini and mbappe, this is my personal opinion, but i also think that if this continues they would be better off giving him up.

Yes unfortunately ego and narcissism necessarily affect the whole team is inevitable.
Everything is in chains a team works if EVERYONE works, is coordinated and works for the same purpose, without feeling superior and without acting like a cockerel on the pitch to show off their skills.
Worse still when you don't listen to the coach who actually holds the team's strings, if these players then pay themselves more than normal, well don't you think the others suffer?

Well in Real Madrid case, that is exactly what is wrong and that is exactly what happened. I understand that it may not be the case for many teams, like for example PSG is a great team and won 2 UCL in a row while also winning the league and yet ego is not a problem for them, players do not feel like they are the top of the world and the best and act accordingly even though they are.

While Real failed to win anything for the past two years, and yet they act like they are the best in the world.

Mbappe is a very good player and I believe everyone knows that already and we also know that Mourinho is also a very good coach, and again Mbappe really wants to lift the Champions League title so I believe he will work with the coach so he can achieve that. I don’t think he would be a problem to the coach. I believe his going to support the coach and make sure that the team do better. I think he will make sure that the team work together to achieve good results he has seen that without togetherness the team will not achieve anything good, he has been in Real Madrid for a very long time now without winning any trophy and they are already mocking him because since he lift PSG, PSG has now lifted two champions league titles, so Mbappe will work with Mourinho very well to achieve trophies.

Dilemma for Kylian Mbappe after two season ago moving to Real Madrid but can't winning Champion League tittle regarding his former club PSG won UCL back to back two season in a row. I don't think wrong with Mbappe can't win Champion League tittle or domestic league tittle because Madrid have downtrend performance but Mbappe keep consistent become the top scorer last two season in a row not only in domestic league but also in Champion League Mbappe become most often Madrid player who scoring the goal.

Now era Jose Mourinho will change significant games play of Kylian Mbappe? keep him as central forward or moving back for the left winger position and need to wait next season in domestic league how Mbappe keep dominance or not become the top scorer again.

[Zoomic]

Mbappe has the ability to score a lot. He has  been the top scorer in most of the seasons we have seen in the last few seasons. He scored a  lot of goals in two seasons with Madrid. But madrid could not win any title. Although he is successful individually, madrid is not successful as a team. Looking forward to see if mbappe can adapt himself to mourinho's match tactics next season. If Mbappe can change his behaviour , there is no doubt that madrid's attack  will  be stronger.

Mourinho should adapt a good team game instead of one targeting Mbappe most of the time. We already know he is capable of scoring a lot of goals in a season.

But just because one of your players have your goal load in this way it doesn't guarantee your achievement as well.    If Real Madrid learn to play better as a team then they can play for the La Liga title seriously.

If you know Jose Mourinho, you'll know he's a manager that likes to focus more on team football instead of building his entire team's potential on one player. Kylian Mbappe has been very prolific for Real Madrid since he arrived the club so I think Mourinho will still give him the opportunity of producing individual brilliance to win games when necessary. Vinicius Jr is another big player that can change the game on his own, so with Mourinho's level of experience, I think he'll know what best to do in other to bring the best out if his team.

[coinlary]

Mourinho this Mourinho that, you all should chill to know if manager is really Realmadrid's problem.

Although  I can see he's already building a new squad around the existing one. The recent transfers are shocking  and sudden but  a good one , especially  cucurella on the defence. I think they are still going for an additional striker and you'll will be shock if it eventually turn out to be Alvarez despite the current constraint .
Julian could eventually  change his mind  even if Atletico releases him for Barca. It will be definitely  a big shock to see Alvarez in Realmadrid  but it's  possible.

We don't know what will happen to Real Madrid, even though Mourinho is now the coach. The Real Madrid players are not the same as before. Mourinho certainly faces a big challenge to improve Real Madrid. I also hope Mbappé and the other players can work together better next season, because without that, it will be difficult to win trophies in La Liga and the UCL. Sometimes I feel sorry for Mbappé since he joined Real Madrid, but he still hasn't won a trophy in La Liga or the UCL. Interestingly, since Mbappé left PSG, PSG has improved and has won two consecutive UCL trophies.

Yes, Mourinho is a great coach, and now I'm curious about Real Madrid's performance next season, whether Real Madrid can improve or not. However, Real Madrid should be able to perform better next season, because how can he not learn from past experiences, which have always failed to win trophies.

Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Jr are crucial players for Real Madrid and whoever the manager takes over, these two players will undoubtedly be key players. Jose Mourinho is a typical coach who relies on teamwork and never relies on one player for every game. He knows what's best for his team and will certainly do everything to make Real Madrid even better next season. It is impossible for a player of Kylian Mbappe's class to be ignored by any coach because he has qualities above the average of other players and he also has speed and vice versa with Vinicius Jr because these two players have quite capable qualities.

Mourinho this Mourinho that, you all should chill to know if manager is really Realmadrid's problem.

Although  I can see he's already building a new squad around the existing one. The recent transfers are shocking  and sudden but  a good one , especially  cucurella on the defence. I think they are still going for an additional striker and you'll will be shock if it eventually turn out to be Alvarez despite the current constraint .
Julian could eventually  change his mind  even if Atletico releases him for Barca. It will be definitely  a big shock to see Alvarez in Realmadrid  but it's  possible.

But the previous problem was the failure of the manager, very clearly could not make his players produce good outs, the player is like a war soldier and the manager is his commander who organizes the strategy of fighting, indirectly if there are undisciplined soldiers then the blame is the leader.
We know a lot about Mourinho in the world of soccer and his successes and failures, with his experience there is certainly hope to bring Real Madrid better than before, especially with the strength it has now.
Real Madrid's defense does need to be strengthened because throughout last season they conceded very easily by clouds, maybe this is the answer given by Mourinho, but for the attack line it is actually enough, but if Alvarez becomes Mourinho's choice it could be as a maneuver for ego disputes, and become the best choice that can be taken.

Dilemma for Kylian Mbappe after two season ago moving to Real Madrid but can't winning Champion League tittle regarding his former club PSG won UCL back to back two season in a row. I don't think wrong with Mbappe can't win Champion League tittle or domestic league tittle because Madrid have downtrend performance but Mbappe keep consistent become the top scorer last two season in a row not only in domestic league but also in Champion League Mbappe become most often Madrid player who scoring the goal.

Now era Jose Mourinho will change significant games play of Kylian Mbappe? keep him as central forward or moving back for the left winger position and need to wait next season in domestic league how Mbappe keep dominance or not become the top scorer again.

Yes, basically Mbappe's performance is indeed good, because it cannot be denied that he is always able to score goals in almost the matches he plays. But the problem is that currently the other players in Real Madrid are clearly not performing very well, because basically even though Mbappe managed to score a goal, if the players do not play well it will definitely make Real Madrid lose. So that's why Mourinho's current task is clearly to make Real Madrid a more compact team and also have even performance. Because it will be useless if Real Madrid is only good in the front line, while the defense line is not good.

Because that will definitely still make it difficult for Real Madrid to win. So I think currently if Mourinho wants to make Real Madrid a great team, it is clear that he may have to select the players in Real Madrid currently, and must choose which ones are worth keeping and which ones should be removed. Because, fundamentally, this is currently the main issue that must be addressed if Real Madrid wants to bounce back. Furthermore, the midfield also needs some improvement, as it's undeniable that since Kroos' departure, the performance of the Real Madrid midfield has been less than optimal.

You are right that Mbappé and Vinicius are very important for Real Madrid. But if you imagine the team structure without them the team perimeter can still be strong. If Jose Mourinho wants to take the team to a good position, he will have to focus on building a strong team with each player. Star players are needed but a skilled coach will work on the overall development of players at every level of the team. Real Madrid's defence is weak compared to the defence, and he will have to work hard to improve the skills of the midfield players.

There is chaos in the team, which many are guessing because even after arranging the team with so many star players, it should be the responsibility of the new coach to uncover the reason why Real Madrid is not getting the expected result.

Mourinho wouldn't put him back to the left wing because Mbappe can play central forward brilliantly and that's why you see him scoring most of the goals. Vini is good at the left wing so he should continue playing that position. Mourinho is a good coach so, I believe that he knows how to manage this players in order to bring out their best performance.

Having a star player in a team doesn't guarantee success for the team because right now in football a strong squad is known for balance and structure and not individual talents of the players alone, so even without Vinicius and Mbappé, the team will still perform well because Real Madrid are known for their team depth and deep squad. If Mourinho finally takes over the team, he will definitely bring discipline and unity to the squad to help them produce consistent results as they should and his strength has been to build a team that's competitive enough and I know he will not want to depend on any individual player but he will depend on the team's chemistry more. Another thing they will need to work on is the defensive side of the team, they have the attack but a good squad is known for their solid defense, midfield and dangerous attacks. So the challenge in Real Madrid is not players, they already have the squad they needed it's finding solutions to the problems the club is experiencing ability to effect that solution to the team performance.

[kennycryptoitalia]

If he decides not to sign, Real is not the type of team that would be sad over someone leaving, this is Real Madrid we are talking about, they would literally let Vini walk away, or just sell him for chump change, and let him go to another team, and will replace him within a day.

Real Madrid are not intimidated by a signing, we all know that the best players at European level aspire to play for teams like Real Madrid.
Mbappé is an excellent player who has always wanted to play for Real Madrid, he is constantly criticized, but despite injuries he has also made an excellent contribution to the team and none of us can deny that.

[Taricoins]

Mourinho was brought in exactly for this reason. Not for his abilities as a manager to be fair, because that has been going down and becoming bad for a long time now, so there are no expectations of him being a great tactician or anything like that. He is brought in because Perez believed that players are getting out of hand and Mourinho is the one who can reel them back in.

This ego problem could only be solved by a manager that has even bigger ego than the players and he will discipline them. I am not sure if it will work, I have always believed that it will not work, but I also believed Xabi at Real Madrid would be amazing and Vincent Kompany at Bayern Munich was a mistake and yet we saw that both of those were wrong, so we will have to wait and see.

I understand your point about Perez bringing in Mourinho for his ability to control star players and the features that comes with them but what happens when Mourinho goes the season without winning any trophy? Or will they still keep him in continue taming the stars because unlike other leagues or teams, the Spanish League takes alot of technicalities and tactics to win and dominate, hope Mourinho will whip out something

[changaa]

The players that joined will learn things in a different way because it will be a little bit hard to make them start acting against the manager that's if that should happen because as it stands is like some persons have their own disciples like the dressing room is divided for real and they need someone like Mourinho like we said and he might not even do much and everybody will just fall in line.

Mourinho has a decisive and decisive character, he could be the right person capable of managing the team's critical issues, why should he give up?
The team physically and sportingly is ready, they need to change their mentality, attitude and cohesion, otherwise Real Madrid need nothing.
Just good coach coordination and teamwork, is a complete but not very functional team, it just needs to fix this.

It is true that Real Madrid have not been impressive in the last two seasons but if he cannot win any trophies in the future he may not be treated well by the team management. He has a complete team with the best players in the world and he will now plan to turn things around. Ensure a stable environment within the team and manage the team with discipline. After all, the best teams have expectations and if Mourinho cannot fulfill that expectation of winning trophies then what is the need to keep him on a high salary?

[len01]

Mourinho wouldn't put him back to the left wing because Mbappe can play central forward brilliantly and that's why you see him scoring most of the goals. Vini is good at the left wing so he should continue playing that position. Mourinho is a good coach so, I believe that he knows how to manage this players in order to bring out their best performance.

That's true. If Mourinho tries to switch their positions, something will probably be missing. Mbappe is most comfortable playing through the middle, while Vinícius has always been at his best on the left wing. Even before Mbappe arrived, Vinícius was consistently putting up great numbers from that position. So there's really no need for Mourinho to experiment with positional changes if he wants Real Madrid's attack to stay sharp and dangerous.

[Localhostspeed]

Well in Real Madrid case, that is exactly what is wrong and that is exactly what happened. I understand that it may not be the case for many teams, like for example PSG is a great team and won 2 UCL in a row while also winning the league and yet ego is not a problem for them, players do not feel like they are the top of the world and the best and act accordingly even though they are.

While Real failed to win anything for the past two years, and yet they act like they are the best in the world.

Don't compared Real Madrid with any other teams. In the history of Champions league, no any other teams has won Champions League like them, they have won 15 and the number will keep increasing because they are good, forget about this short term lapses they experienced recently, you can see what Mourinho is doing already to fix what's broken within the team, it has become a culture for anyone in Real Madrid to brage when they won something another team has not done before.

Why do you think that all players want to play in the club? It's because of how far the club has come and not to make any sentiment, they are rich and good at what they does. This is why Barcelona doesn't feel happy anytime they see them making moves that will put them behind. The recent players that Mourinho has signed, if Laporta have ways they can turn things around for Real Madrid, they will do it because he knows what they are capable of doing.

Yes, Mourinho is a great coach, and now I'm curious about Real Madrid's performance next season, whether Real Madrid can improve or not. However, Real Madrid should be able to perform better next season, because how can he not learn from past experiences, which have always failed to win trophies.

I expect Jose Mourinho to be able to silence certain players and develop others.
He wasn't chosen by chance, he was chosen for his determined character who doesn't give in.
He was chosen because in the past, with his character, he was able to say no to million-dollar contracts in order to finish what he had started.

[iamsange]

Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Jr are crucial players for Real Madrid and whoever the manager takes over, these two players will undoubtedly be key players. Jose Mourinho is a typical coach who relies on teamwork and never relies on one player for every game. He knows what's best for his team and will certainly do everything to make Real Madrid even better next season. It is impossible for a player of Kylian Mbappe's class to be ignored by any coach because he has qualities above the average of other players and he also has speed and vice versa with Vinicius Jr because these two players have quite capable qualities.

The problem lies in teamwork on the pitch, as both players are egotistical, racing to score goals without remembering to pass to their teammates when the opportunity arises. This means their egos must be minimized to improve teamwork next season, as Jose Mourinho dislikes players with inflated egos and who tend to think they're superior to others. I also admit that both players are good players, but if they still think that others are not important, then it will be impossible for Real Madrid to be good next season.

[Renampun]

Mbappe has the ability to score a lot. He has  been the top scorer in most of the seasons we have seen in the last few seasons. He scored a  lot of goals in two seasons with Madrid. But madrid could not win any title. Although he is successful individually, madrid is not successful as a team. Looking forward to see if mbappe can adapt himself to mourinho's match tactics next season. If Mbappe can change his behaviour , there is no doubt that madrid's attack  will  be stronger.

That's the problem, even though Mbappe is very good individually, he is still selfish and wants to play alone in terms of team play. This is a problem on the field, namely that he is unable to build better teamwork with his teammates. I don't know what kind of approach Mourinho will use to change his mindset to prioritize the interests of the team, but Mourinho should have a solution for this because he is used to handling players with high egos and strong characters, so he certainly understands how to manage such players. so now it's back to Mbappe, whether he wants to adapt to Mourinho's style of play or whether he wants to fight it.
