La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Princess Leah]

Real Madrid has already completed some deals this summer:

- Cucurella
- Dumfries
- Konate
- Bernardo Silva

Some people are criticizing their transfer policy though. Like these players aren't actually fitting a team like Real Madrid. Some of them are really questionable though.

But I don't think all of them are bad signings. I believe Cucurella is a really good replacement for Carreras. There is a question mark in my head for Konate. He won't have a strong defender like van Dijk beside him anymore so we don't know how good he can play in this way.

I think Madrid current signings, especially those 4 players or one of them, are not bad signings, yes there may be doubts, and that's normal, everyone has an opinion, but I think Madrid move is very worthy, Cucurela, Dumfries and Konate can help Madrid defense become stronger, especially against Barcelona, I think Cucurela is why he was brought in to tackle Yamal.   And lastly Silva will be the central counterbalance and the brains of Madrid attack. More importantly, two of them were brought in for free.

Real Madrid has recently improved significantly in terms of free transfers. I think they're currently the best team in the world at acquiring good players when their contracts expire. They did this to bring in Mbappé and Trent, and now they're doing the same with Konate and Bernardo Silva. I think they've built a very strong squad. You could say they're already prepared for next season. However, if I know Real Madrid at all, they'll likely sign another young, high-quality player.

I don't know how they manage to convince top quality players to stay until tbeir contract expires or almost then go there for free or very cheaply, their transfer team deserve praise for that cause it's impressive. Most teams spend heavily to build the kind of squad Real Madrid has but having a good squad is not enough which was why an experienced coach like Mourinho was signed.

 With the kind of players Real Madrid bought in this current window, I'm expecting serious transformation in their performance i know they're not yet done with signings so I'm looking forward to the players that would be added later on before the window closes. Real Madrid is cooking something special for us next season.

Real Madrid needs players like Mbappe and they certainly need to understand well how to reorganize the team, right now they need to better manage the whole Real Madrid package and the whole team. Mourinho's arrival will change everything, im more than convinced, im not dismembered by a coach who lets anyone put him down.

Many fans are thinking mbappe is the problem of real Madrid for pass two seasons and that is why they failed to win a single trophies, but what I noticed is that mbappe as not be playing is best position in Anceloti that make him to become a strikers and before he can adapt in that position in will take time and xabi Alonso comes to Madrid he still used the same position and still he as be trying and get the golden book in two seasons.

Some Players are not enjoying the pattern that xabi Alonso is displaying in the team he as change many things and that why he didn’t win something for the club. But with Mourinho present I get the believe that everything will change and Madrid will come back to there best form and win a trophy. Mbappe is a key player for Real Madrid and I can says is untouchable for the club currently.

[SOKO-DEKE]

I think he wins the La Liga but the Champions league competition is where I have doubts. Most importantly, he will see them competing harder than they previously did.
He knows how to deal with the press and also the dressing room issues. I'm not sure about what philosophy he brings,  I also have my doubts about too, I believe they're outdated. It is the reason why I wanted the president of Real Madrid bringing Jurgen Klopp.

Real Madrid has been trophless for two seasons now, to me it doesn't matter if José Mourinho win the Champions League trophy for Real Madrid or not. If José Mourinho wins the La Liga in his first season or second season for Real Madrid he can possibly win the Champions League for Real Madrid if he coach Real Madrid upto four or five years.

Honestly, a team like Real Madrid going two full seasons without winning any trophy is very bad. So, I don't think Real Madrid's main focus will be only the Champions League; their priority will likely be La Liga and other trophies, just as it was during Mourinho's first season at Real Madrid.It is also possible for Real Madrid to win the Champions League because they have quality players and are making more signings to improve their performance next season. If it were not for a disciplined manager, I don't think Real Madrid would have endured these last two years as they have. I also don't expect many clubs to compete strongly with Real Madrid.

Now that they have signed Mourinho, most of the problems Real Madrid faced should be solved. Most of their issues last season came from the players not being ready to play as one team with full determination. However, we expect changes in their performances next season because they have brought in a coach who will address those problems properly.

Madrid management is very experienced. They can build strong squads at relatively low cost. This is truly  commendable. Madrid do not need to spend that much money to  add a player like mbappe to the squad.

Madrid seems to be very aggressive in this transfer window. They are interested in  strengthening the defense. They  are going to add two talented defenders like Cucurella and konate to the squad. We are likely  to see a midfielder like silva in a madrid jersey. Madrid are taking all necessary  measures to strengthen the  defense and  midfield. Madrid will probably keep the attack unchanged

He doesn't need to change his attacking line because they have important players like Mbappé and Vinicius there. I would still love to see Haaland in a Real Madrid shirt. With such effective midfielders, I'm sure the Norwegian would break goalscoring records. He's exactly the kind of player that fits into the current Real Madrid squad. However, getting him from Manchester City is impossible. Perhaps Real Madrid will follow their usual contract expiration strategy.

Mbappe is not the problem and Xabi Alonso was also not the problem why Real Madrid performance turn like this. Xabi Alonso tried to excute his own pattern of managing the club that work for him and for the fact tbaf he was not given enough time before the players get adapt to this method Ya'll think Xabi Alonso was unable  to manage this club, which is not so. 

Real Madrid will not sell Mbappe  because he is still doing great, he just need a good manager that can understand him and do the needful. And I can see that everyone here believe in Mounrinho let's what he will do by next season.

[karabiber]

But the previous problem was the failure of the manager, very clearly could not make his players produce good outs,
-snip-

I think the condition of Real Madrid team and all the circumstances of the team are very visible to all and almost everyone knows their problems. But its hoping that the new coach Jose mourinho will manage the team in a good way and bring a great output from the same squad. Because its the responsibility of a manager to keep the atmosphere balanced of the team and also maintain a good behaviour between the teams to get the desired results. Because the relationship of a coach with his players matters a lot and it also has really a great influence  over the team performance.  And Mourinho is a very experienced coach and it is expected by all that the team will grow and move forward under his great supervision. But at the same time the players should be very cooperative with his new manager and also need to show some patience by the Management

I think Mourinho will fail at Real Madrid. The psychology of the star players during Mourinho’s successful periods the conditions in which they grew up is very different from that of the stars on the current Real Madrid roster, as is their ego management. Back then, when Mourinho left Inter, even Materazzi was crying his eyes out. There was that kind of bond back then.

However, Materazzi was born in 1973, and the other stars from that era were from the same generation. The current generation, on the other hand, consists of players born in the 2000s. It’s impossible for Mourinho to establish the same rapport with this new generation that he had with the players born in the ’70s and ’80s who were part of his successful squads. On top of that, he’s already fallen far behind in terms of modern tactics.

[AYOBA]

The lack of consistency we saw in Real Madrid's team in La Liga and the Champions League last season may not be there in the upcoming season because the team's authorities are now very careful in selecting players and they have already hired one of their former managers. The main thing is that we will see that from the upcoming season, every player in the Real Madrid team will have a great combination, perhaps it is with that goal in mind that Madrid manager Jose Mourinho and the team's management are recruiting the best players in all departments, actually we are hearing rumors right now that they are also going to buy Enzo Fernandez from Chelsea and it is from this same club that they have previously added Cucurella to their team.

The way I’m seeing a lots of teams signing new player to their clubs I’m very sure next season will be different this season, because it show that each an every team are well prepared of the next season league. Real Madrid face a lot of challenges in so many leagues last season, which they won’t allow same thing happen to them this coming season is not their own will be worst as all their struggles and efforts and end up of achieving nothing; so in this case they do well in order to achieve their goals coming season.

Yes, everyone here believes in Jose Mourinho, but let's see what he can do with Real Madrid. Because Mbappé is a difficult player to manage. There have been speculations that he had some problems with the French national team as well. We know that many players are high-quality, but there need to be managers who can overcome the egos of star players. The Portuguese manager is one such manager, and I think he will gradually correct his ego. Otherwise, it will be a bad situation for Mbappé as well.

[Dump3er]

That is the risk that comes with making big decisions, but I can understand him as it was forever on his agenda. I thought back then that he should have gone to Real Madrid much earlier. I didn't expect it would take so long, but PSG convinced him with money over and over again and then, can you believe it, he leaves the club and then the club finally wins the UCL and does so two times in a row. If you look at these facts, it must feel awful for him because just imagine he won't win it with Real Madrid and it would be a trophy he never held in his hands.

I know that it is unlikely Real Madrid won't win it within the next decade, but his time is ticking for sure. Recently I caught myself how I was not up to date about his age, but then remembered that he shocked the world at the World Cup 2018 and that is 8 years ago. I looked it up and he is going to be 28 by the end of this year. Time will be passing by quickly and while everyone would have said that Mbappe ends up with several UCL trophies at the end of his career, now it is not safe to say he will ever win one. But he's got the money so he will get over it if he buys the right things.

I believe that Mbappe has plenty of time to manage this situation and win something at a European level, of course, Real Madrid is capable of winning and doing better than what they have done so far, i don't think they have any problems, if they manage to find the right game it's definitely done.

He has plenty of time, but if anybody told you that Barcelona won their last UCL trophy 11 years ago, I this could change your point of view when you talk about plenty of time. In 11 years, I don't know whether Mbappe will still be with Real Madrid and whether he will have won the UCL trophy by that time. For Liverpool it is 7 years ago and for Bayern it is 6 years ago. It is not like Mbappe will definitely win it. His chances are good because he will always play for one of the best teams, but being part of one of the best teams doesn't mean you will win it one day as you can see at the example of Barcelona.

Nobody knows whether Yamal may have to wait until his late 20s before he can finally lift the UCL trophy.

[Slow death]

Barcelona is a very strange club when it comes to signings. Now they want Josué Caicedo, who is 18 years old and plays for LDU Quito, and they want him on loan to play for Barcelona B. Honestly, if this guy accepts this, he'll end up like Rashford and so many other players who went to Barcelona on loan. In my opinion, this player shouldn't accept going to Barcelona on loan; it would be better for him to work hard at his current club and pray that some good club signs him permanently for the first team.

Mbappe came to real madrid to win the champions league trophy, But since his arrival, Real Madrid has been unable to win it. It's not the coach or the players fault, as they haven't found their best form yet.
Mbappe is a quality player, He can be a player who can lead the team to victory with his goals.

However, We see if real madrid can win the La Liga trophy next season under mourinho, as barcelona has been very strong so far. mourinho certainly has a tough task, especially in La Liga and the champions league, but with the depth of the squad he has, I think real madrid just needs a better strategy under mourinho.

[Dzwaafu11]

I think he wins the La Liga but the Champions league competition is where I have doubts. Most importantly, he will see them competing harder than they previously did.

If José Mourinho wins the La Liga in his first season or second season for Real Madrid he can possibly win the Champions League for Real Madrid if he coach Real Madrid upto four or five years.

That's tue. We should'nt expect too much from a manager in his first season tbis is the problem some fans have, a manager that was just sign in and you are already expecting like 2 or 3 trophy is reallh going to be too much for him let's see how he will perform in the La liga competition for now, we should'nt put our hope in the champions league for now, mounrinho need to settle down and make sure things get right before anyother thing.

[IceLincoln]

Real Madrid would never want to sell Mbappe this summer. That's out of question... He made a huge goal contribution this season. He is shining in the World Cup right now as well!

The only change about that might be to put Mbappe on the left wing and sign another CF. Actually Mbappe isn't originally a striker in the first place. I can't imagine how good it would be to watch him with a solid CF right beside him. 

Frankly I feel it would be a waste of space to sign a striker, or Centre Forward with Mbappe still active in the squad, Mbappe wouldn't step down from a goal scorer to a playmaker for any one and it would be a huge struggle for the Frontline and aside from that, If Mbappe moves to his natural role which is the Left Wing, where is Vinicius going to play, Real Madrid just needs a good Right Winger and that's it for there attack

Yes what the club needs is someone to man the right wing proper, Rodrygo did quite good until last season issues but they need to sign a left footed winger Since Bale and Marcos Ascencio left they’ve never had a replacement. They should work on that and Vini/Mbappe issue. There’s no need for a new CF at Madrid even Endrick had to leave because there was no playing time. Kylian Mbappe is the center forward at Madrid and will continue to be even Deschamps is playing him as Center forward.

It's  team B mate. Not like a division of the Barcelona team into team A and B,  players  go through team B just to get trained and ready to play for Team A when the time comes . Messi also went through team B before finally moving to the first division barcelona team so it's  not new , they use it as investment for fture purposes but not all player make it to the main team.

Qhere do you think they were keeping  all the signings since last season, they have upto 6 already including Hamza.

Yes, these are the problems that need to be solved at Real Madrid, with many of them expected to be solved well and can be directed, so that players believe in the coach and the coach believes in the players so that everything has good continuity in the formation of strategies and implementation on the field, when the vision is the same for Real Madrid's victory without excessive personal ego on the field, it will be very good for the team.

Last season Jose Mourinho managed to bring Porto out to win the Portuguese league, as a provision for him to return to the top team, so that Real Madrid is also interested in trying, and is expected to produce better.

[len01]

That's tue. We should'nt expect too much from a manager in his first season tbis is the problem some fans have, a manager that was just sign in and you are already expecting like 2 or 3 trophy is reallh going to be too much for him let's see how he will perform in the La liga competition for now, we should'nt put our hope in the champions league for now, mounrinho need to settle down and make sure things get right before anyother thing.

When a manager has to work under constant pressure and high expectations, it can become a heavy burden. It's always difficult for a coach to take a club to a higher level when there are so many demands placed on him.

As a Real Madrid fan, I still have some doubts about Mourinho, but all I can do is hope that he can at least build a strong mentality within the squad and implement a solid tactical system. If he succeeds in doing that, then step by step he may be able to guide Madrid back to winning major trophies

He must also realize that being the Real Madrid manager will undoubtedly face high expectations, as this team is built to be ready for pressure and winning titles is undoubtedly paramount. But how can management give Jose Mourinho the time, or at least the freedom, to choose which players he wants to bring in and which he wants to let go? If this doesn't happen, it will be difficult for him to achieve success in his first season with Real Madrid.

Even though Jose Mourinho understands Real Madrid's condition because he was previously a coach there, it will not be easy now because there are many things that need to be evacuated, especially in the last two seasons, Real Madrid's condition can be said to be much worse and they have always failed to compete with Barcelona, especially in La Liga.

[Razmirraz]

Snip.

Of course he is very aware of this, after all this is his second chance to manage Real Madrid. Being the manager of Real Madrid is not an easy job, this team always demands trophies every season, if the coach is unable to meet these expectations, he will be considered a failure. However, if management fully supports strategic changes, such as giving Mourinho absolute freedom to recruit experienced players and release players who do not fit his tactical scheme, perhaps the results will be slightly different from the previous season.

His first season at Real Madrid not only allowed the team to improve its quality and compete with Barcelona for the title, but he also had other tasks such as calming internal conflicts, disciplining star players, and restoring harmony to the squad that had been disturbed. The problem here is not Jose Mourinho's inability to win the La Liga title, but that he arrived at the wrong time, just like in his first edition of coaching Real Madrid, when Barcelona was at the peak of its performance under Guardiola, now the situation is not much different.

Real Madrid's management always wants a title every season, so they won't really care about the process for a new coach because Real Madrid's management has surely fully supported building this team. That's what becomes the pressure, but I think Jose Mourinho is experienced enough, so he knows what needs to be done, even though it will still feel tough.

There will definitely be doubts because Jose Mourinho isn't at the peak of his career right now, but those doubts can't be too exaggerated either because, after all, Jose Mourinho is an experienced coach, so that should also be kept in mind.
