La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[m4r1o]

You're correct, the expectations people have on Mourinho to fix all Real Madrid problem in just one session is becoming too much, and they are expecting him to also win trophies in that next season. In my opinion, this will bring more pressure and frustration to him because there's no way he can achieve all this at once.

The problem now, it's not only Real Madrid fans have this big expectations for Mourinho, even Real Madrid management want him to get things fast because this has always been Madrid mentality since they have gotten used to winning trophies, and I don't think Mourinho will get this done as fast as they want, because Barcelona isn't sleeping either they are also preparing to win trophies next season too.

who wouldn't wait for Mounrinho, a coach who knows Real Madrid very well and who knows what he has to do, they are building an excellent team that will certainly be able to produce many results, i can already see the victory over Barcelona, he is a winner and i already know that he will bring excellent results in this championship.

Winning back the La Liga or UCL title will probably be quite difficult for Madrid next year despite bringing in important players to the squad, not that I doubt it, but getting the team solid again and fixing the problems that have occurred over the past two seasons in the Madrid squad will take time, unless the problematic players work together, there might be hope for them to at least win one title.

Anything can probably be possible because football is always unpredictable and we can’t know what will happen next, Real Madrid are not in a good shap last season they struggle in many competitions and fails to win any of them and they have been changing different players and coach and Mourinho as be the new manager of the club, they will do there best next season so that they can get something to win.

If Real Madrid fails to win a title next season, that will be a big shame for all the players and fans. Let watch how the laliga will goes next summer. Champion league is a difficult competition but Real Madrid always see it as normal game so I get believe Madrid can win ucl next season.

Barcelona know Real Madrid has a plan to equip their squad for the new season which is they want to equip theirs to avoid them missing out on the league. For years now, the league title competition has always been between Madrid or Barcelona. It won't be different this season. The team that has a stronger squad and a squad depth as well will win the league trophy.

If Barcelona management will decide to release all their key players of the club, because those players are still young to help the club to repeat what happened to Barcelona that is making the club to be toping laLiga league since last season till this season. I don't think Real Madrid need new coach in this summer, because there are some words that came out from Real Madrid coach, it made many people and their president to believe that their coach will surprise people to do what they couldn't do last season.

The fear I have for Barcelona is that their coach should not be in an hurry to sell out their young potential strikers, because those strikers will help the club to dominate to cause the club to lift many trophies in the future.

If he sells off his jewels it is a big mistake, in my opinion for two fundamental reasons, the first reason is that you deprive yourself of a player who can still grow a lot and give a lot to the team.
Second problem, by selling him you make another strong team. Maybe he can sell it not in Spain, then that could help.

That's exactly Atletico's biggest problem, they rarely mount a genuine title challenge in La Liga. More often than not, the race for the championship comes down to Real Madrid and Barcelona. Even though Atletico have a strong squad and have invested heavily in transfers during several recent transfer windows, they still haven't been able to compete with those two clubs on equal terms.

That's why it's understandable that, after a few seasons, the more ambitious players start looking for clubs where they have a better chance of winning major trophies. So, if Alvarez wants to leave Atletico, it's easy to understand his reasoning. What is harder to understand is why Atletico are so determined to prevent that from happening.

Atletico Madrid could be fighting for the title if they change their way of conceiving the championship.
In my opinion, Spanish friends reading this correct me, Atletico Madrid doesn't want to make the leap in quality, because it would probably be too expensive or burdensome.
From the outside i perceive this.

[martinom]

With Benfica he was already very close to getting them the formidable form they have been looking to get, their performance and form since he arrived the team obviously did changed and so they have really been improving,  that alone shows that at Madrid he can do much,  because been able to achieve such with a small team with almost  limited resources,  he will be able  to do even better where he got all the resources needed to do as much.

Benfica is an excellent team that takes the players to a higher level in my opinion, i believe that in any case Real Madrid is another stage, a leap to a higher level as if to say the improvement that everyone is looking for and that everyone wants, certainly the ability to do better is certainly there, without a doubt.

[aipercoin]

With all the signings that Real Madrid has done, we are expecting them to lift at least one trophy next season and if they cannot, that means they have failed, I have very strong expectation from Real Madrid, right now they have the best players in the world and they need to lift the La Liga title or the Champions League title, now that they have a very good coach that has experience we are not expecting failure anymore and they don't have any other excuse. Barcelona has dominated the La Liga for a very long time. It is time for it to change hand and Real Madrid is preparing so well to dominate. Let's see if they will achieve that.

But not only at this time, but also in previous seasons they had a strong squad, the only thing i expect from Real Madrid that now with a coach like Mourinho things change, because now as before the team has excellent players, they need to improve their mentality and the way they play, because basically they lack nothing at all.

[changaa]

When you are not doing your best and there's no sign of improvement, Mourinho will keep you on the bench irrespective of the player that you are. If a player cannot also show some respect and discipline, Mourinho will also put you to your place. I'm happy that Real Madrid squad will be better again with his coaching skills and experience.

It could be that he will continue to field this team, that doesn't mean he will keep the players in their role, i really believe that if one of them doesn't listen and doesn't approve of what Mourinho thinks he will obviously be out.
Such a rigid air will be understandable, they need this, those who cannot respect their place automatically will be excluded, we all know how they think, in theory Real Madrid should improve their playing skills, we will see if they are actually effective.

Mourinho must be tough. Otherwise, he has no chance of success. Managing this madrid squad is very difficult.

Madrid management hired a  talented manager like Alonso. But the players did not follow his instructions properly. If the players do not follow the instructions of the coach properly, it is not possible for them to do well. Madrid squad is very strong. They have many star players. But the understanding  between the players is weak. The players have ego problems. If the players cannot kill their ego  and improve the relationship between them, it is not possible for them to do well.

[Gallar]

When the players achieve better chemistry, very few teams will be able to stop Real Madrid. Because when Mbappé helps his teammates more, Real Madrid will have much more effective goal-scoring opportunities. Mbappé wants to take advantage of many chances on his own, so he doesn't pass to players in better positions. This is one of the main reasons for the team's dropped points. In fact, the Portuguese coach came to the team to solve this problem.

Yes, that's why Real Madrid must be able to get those selfish players to work together well. That's the only major problem they need to resolve immediately if they want to compete well again in La Liga. Without good cooperation, I'm sure that no matter who the coach is or how expensive the players they buy, the results will certainly be unsatisfactory. That's why Mourinho, as their new coach, must be able to resolve this problem quickly.

There's nothing else that needs to be fixed at Real Madrid other than that. Basically, Real Madrid already has good players, and they'll certainly be buying more new players soon. So, I think when it comes to player resources, Real Madrid certainly has enough quality players. So, now all that's left is for those players to work together well and not be selfish anymore. And if that's good, I think Real Madrid will definitely become a great team again.

Mou may have different preference regarding Arda's play style. The fact that he pushes Madrid to get a new midfielder that meet his expectation. So this pretty obvious Arda may be warming the bench.
Just because Arda has been always getting minutes under the previous coaches, then you call that he will not be benched by him.

Juan Mata, Hazard, Pepe, Casilas, and etc have ever been benched by Mou because they didn't meet what he demanded from them. So the same rule is applicable to the Arda.
Is this the first time you watch Mou's coaching the club?

Mounrinho decides and Mounrinho knows what he does, this is very important, trusting a coach, if he thinks that Arda Guler is not one of the starters he is right to do so, obviously even if he has strong players and everyone is strong someone will have to start from the bench to take over, it is inevitable.

With the arrival of Bernardo to the Madrid squad now, the competition is increasingly difficult to be in the first team because if you look now for Madrid's central midfielders there are about 7 and may be able to increase.  Jude, Arda, Tchouameni, Valverde, Brahim, Camavinga and Bernardo and this is not an ordinary name for now even this will feel very luxurious.

But on the one hand with the presence of some of these great players,  Mou will have no trouble unloading in his squad, especially some of these players have positions that are quite flexible because they can be in many positions so that even though the competition is very large, Mou's chance to maximize some of these players is also very large.

[Not your key not your BTC]

I wonder whether Mourinho will continue to use Bellingham as AM or make him return to his natural position which is CM.

In my opinion, Mourinho will continue to play Bellingham as an attacking midfielder because of his preferred 4-2-3-1 formation, which means the two central midfield positions will be filled by Bernardo Silva and Valverde or Enzo Fernández. But things are getting interesting in Real Madrid’s midfield this time around, as there will be competition among the players for a starting spot in Mourinho’s squad. That’s because Real Madrid now has a deep pool of talented midfielders.

This competition amongs the players will really go a long way to keep the team in check,  because when the players know there is a good substitute who is as good as them, they will want to be at their best always so the coach will see reasons to have them on their starting XI always,  and knowing how discipline of a person mourinho is, they know that the moment he gets a reason not to have you on the starting XI, you most likely will not get good play time again,  and that is not good for their career.

Yes, healthy competition among players and a positive locker room atmosphere do make the team more stable, as the players will continue to work hard to secure a starting spot on the squad. For Mourinho, having a deep pool of talented players, especially in midfield—makes it easier for him to shape the team the way he wants.

While Mourinho's management skills are well known, he hasn't proven anything yet. Expectations should be lowered, as La Liga hasn't even started yet, and each team is still building their squads. The current capabilities of Barcelona and Madrid are simply too limited to be measured.

I really trust the skills and experience of Mourinho and I believe his going to do very well in Real Madrid, he has want it take to lead Real Madrid to back to back trophies, the way Real Madrid are building their team you can definitely tell that they are going the right way and I don’t think Barcelona will be able to stop them next season, I have not seen any important signings Barcelona has done apart from 1, and they are still lacking in the area of a good striker and I have not seen any better move that will lead to a better result they have made for a striker, if they don’t sign a striker it will affect them next season.

People are only judging him based on his previous record with believe that he'll handle the club well like before, he's a very good coach and with a good team like Real Madrid where there are experienced players that would exhibit his instructions properly, I believe Real Madrid would do better with him.

 Last season was hell for Real Madrid, their performance was poor, they lacked discipline and the dressing room was a mess but they're currently restructuring the team, starting with Mourinho and some good players they've bought so far, I know they'll be very active in transfer, which is why I'm expecting much from them than Barcelona.

clearly Mourinho will continue to field Bellingham, he is a striker that no coach can afford to leave out, and i believe that he is one of those who will also start, however i see him very well with mbappe and vini jr i believe that there are the conditions to win the championship if all goes well.

[Volgastallion]

Uff some guy above just name Juan Mata and damn i cant believe how he didnt comeback for his last dance to LaLiga after spending so many years in the Premier League i jsut thinked he was gonna comeback to Valencia his former club or other but no he goes into some shit leagues in the far east, i really want to see him again for a last dance in his home country.

[Smack That Ace]

I do not  know on what basis you are saying that Real madrid is going in the right way and they will be champions next season. Real madrid is strong that's right. But what have they done so far apart from adding a few defenders to the squad? Madrid's weakness is only their defense ? I do not know why you say that Madrid's defense is weak.

Madrid now need a  strong midfield. Madrid have yet to find suitable replacements for Modrich and kross. They cannot overcome this weakness. But instead of strengthening the midfield, Madrid management  is strengthening their defense. Madrid will stumble  again next season if they cannot properly identify  their problems

I, on the other hand, believe that Real Madrid is building a team that is preparing for the worst and to challenge any opponent, i understand that it won't be easy but they have truly created a fabulous team apart from Cucurella who i consider to be a truly insipid player compared to the purchases they have made.

That's one thing I have been hitting on since the signing of Jose Mourinho and I feel the only thing that would help him is if Real Madrid can get more star player than previously acquired because the Laliga has changed alot since his last term as the Real Madrid boss.

Honestly when was the last time he dominated Europe across the over 3 clubs he went to after Porto. Even his time in Benfica I can't remember winning the Portugese league
