La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Tamaperdana]

Lewandowski has already moved to MLS, so Barcelona will need to make sure they find a new central striker to replace him. But I don't think Harry Kane should be considered, because Bayern are unlikely to let him go. I also think I recently saw news that Kane is planning to extend his current contract with Bayern, so I doubt Barcelona should be counting on him. Moreover if they wanted to sign Kane, it would require a huge transfer fee, and Barcelona couldn't even find €30 million to buy Rashford.

I'm not sure if it's really about not being able to find €30m for Rashford...    Because I think it might actually be because of not intending to pay that much for him.

You know they didn't use Rashford as one of their main players mostly. He still contributed a lot though! But I don't think they want to make do with him instead.

They are aiming high. Like Julian Alvarez! But Atletico Madrid is so stubborn even though the player wants to leave.

Yes, if Lewandowski has moved to the MLS, I think Barcelona will definitely have to immediately look for a better striker. Because basically, Barcelona currently doesn't have a good striker in their squad. So that's why I think Barcelona must be able to act quickly on this. Because the sooner Barcelona can bring in a new striker, it will clearly have a positive impact on them. But the problem is, until now, I personally haven't seen any clarity on which striker will replace Lewandowski at Barcelona. Because if we talk about Julian Alvarez, I think Atletico set a very high price for Barcelona. So I think Barcelona will also clearly think twice about being able to buy Alvarez at that high price.

So that's why I currently don't know for sure who will be the new striker for Barcelona. But rumors are circulating right now, Barcelona is also eyeing several other strikers in case the Alvarez transfer fails. Oshimen, Alexander Issak, and several other names are also currently on Barcelona's radar. But I don't think it will be easy for Barcelona. Therefore,, I hope Atletico Madrid can lower their asking price for Julian so Barcelona can be willing to buy him. It would be fantastic if Julian Alvarez could become a Barcelona player.

Arsenal performed very well, they played as a team that wanted to win everything, they got into the right mentality, truly incredible, and then they never gave up, they always tried to bring home the championship and in the end by trying and trying again they succeeded, honor to them they deserve it.

You have a point, arsenal really put in their best to win the championship and they really deserved to win but it's quite unfortunate that they couldn't because of a few things that they lacked. They can set things right and try again next season but I doubt if they would be able to win this time around because teams like real Madrid and Barcelona would also put in their best to win the trophy.

Arsenal used all-out tactics to win the Champions League trophy, it is true and they have improved a lot and been consistent in winning but surprisingly the final match against PSG was not in line with their previous series of matches.
The team was busy celebrating the Premier League trophy and did not have much time for the Champions League final match. PSG were committed to maintaining the previous consistency and put in an impressive performance and they got the reward they deserved.

If their benchmark is only in the Champions League zone then their achievements will still look good but when trying to keep up with the top 2 clubs Barcelona and Madrid obviously things now still seem far away for Atletico because I actually feel at this time their performance has actually decreased in recent seasons especially after they managed to get the La Liga trophy in 6 seasons ago.

Indeed, if you count the overall achievement from the beginning of Simeone's coaching looks pretty good but the trophy they managed to get most recently was in the 2020 season the rest of the trophies they managed to get were Simeone's early years coaching so this should be a benchmark that the longer Atletico's performance decreases.
The comparison we can probably see from the achievement of trophies during his coaching at Atletico.

Atletico last season knew how to surprise, but they faced very strong teams who prevailed, Arsenal were still under a star, their luck was great, but they were better than Atletico for example, so they have to improve a little more if they want to do more.

The hard part is looking for a better replacement for Lewandowski. Barcelona have yet to see someone who will give them at least equal to what Lewandowski did before looking for a better fit. The option they had, which was Alvarez, is now a no-go area for them. I wish Barcelona would think of Osimhen as the best fit to replace Lewandowski. Another good option is Woltemade of Newcastle. I think Woltemade will fit in better in Barcelona's system.

Julian Alvarez should be their main target despite Atletico Madrid's trying not to sell him to them. It doesn't have to be a complete forward or tall one.

Besides he is a really versatile player who can score wonderful free-kick goals as well.    I think he would also be a great fit into Barcelona.

But if they fail then Osimhen might be an alternative. I'm not sure about Woltemade. He hasn't proven himself.

[len01]

Currently Atletico only Troll with the transfer of Julian Alvarez because from the beginning they seemed to have no intention of letting go but always serve some clubs who want to get Julian Alvarez just to make them upset including for 2 big clubs Barcelona and Madrid.

Barcelona is the worst by far because Atletico even made this as entertainment on social media just for psy war in the new season but the way Atletico did this for me is very entertaining because even though they have no intention of selling but they are still trying to provide entertainment in this summer transfer.

I assume Atletico isn't just engaging in psychological warfare, but rather taking advantage of a good opportunity to find the highest bidder. It might seem like Atletico doesn't want to sell Julian Alvarez, but I'm sure if there's a very high offer, he'll likely be released. Unfortunately, Madrid understands that, while they need a player like Alvarez, they're better off finding alternatives than paying a large sum for just one player.

If Atletico Madrid should sell Julian Alvarez then I will have no choice than to ask what exactly do they want in that Atletico Madrid? Because they have been off and on and last season they did very well, they kick out Barcelona I mean they have been a pain in the ass for Barcelona last season that they removed them in the Copa dey Ray and champions league yet they could not win anyone the one everyone thought they will win they threw it to, i think Real Sociedad Or Real Betis.

Arsenal played very well and i is happy that they reached such a goal, they certainly deserved all this, they played very correctly and moved forward with a lot of dedication, certainly the team needs to play better with a few more defenders to continue winning.

Atletico Madrid have difficult position for defending Julian Alvarez because the players want to leave and his destination joining Barcelona, if Atletico Madrid leaving by Julian Alvarez big loss because have signed several new players and loss top striker.

Last season, Atletico Madrid indeed failure at La Liga and Champion League tittle race but success eliminating Barcelona neither in Champion League and Copa Del Rey, can't guarantee with Atletico Madrid have top performance next season because possibility loss Julian Alvarez and inconsistent performance every season. Almost last few season Atletico Madrid get back to La Liga tittle race with Barcelona or Real Madrid and this season finish at 4th placed.

Coaches always does have their preference with the players they believe will be of great value to their  team, players who do not fit in to their style and pattern of play may mostly not be their choice and so they will want the other over one and that could likely be the case between Rashford and Gordon. 

The price obviously shows the difference,  there is a thing about Gordon that got the coach preferring him over Rashford, and even the price tag having such difference. 

this is true, in fact the coaches always bring players with whom they have had a good time with to the teams where they go to coach, because they know that they work very well and that they are players who could help them in their work, so yes i believe that with the new coaches new players will also go.

Atletico Madrid have two options. If Atletico Madrid want to fight for the  title, they need to make their squad  stronger. They need to spend  money to add more  talented players to the squad. If they do not do this, their best option is to sell alvarez and earn a large amount of money. If they don't do either  of these and keep the squad unchanged , they won't be able to compete for the title. They won't even be  able to earn money by selling players.

Barcelona is finding it difficult to spend good amount of money to fine a striker, Alvarez was a good choice but Atletico Madrid is not ready to lose him because his there best player, but he has already made it very clear that he wants to join Barcelona so he can fulfill his dream, I believe as time goes on Atletico Madrid may not have another option but to sell him to Barcelona because clearly he wants to join Barcelona.
Victor Osimhen would be a better option for Barcelona but the problem is Galatasaray has made it clear that they are not ready to sell him for any amount of money, Barcelona should go for the Newcastle player you mentioned maybe they will be lucky to get him, they really need a good striker in the team if they want to challenge for the La Liga and champions league trophy next season.

That's one thing about replacing a good player, i knew Barcelona would find it tough to replace Lewandowski cause no team would want to lose there's to them except they offer something convincing. Alvarez is a good player but the rivalry between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona would make it tougher for Barcelona to sign him even though Alvarez insists on going.

 However if they can splash €100m on Osimhen, maybe it would be enough to convince Galatasaray, I also prefer Osimhen to Alvarez or Woltemade, he's better than both in physicality and goal scoring, Osimhen in front of Yamal and Raphinha or Gordon would be so magical, that's the player they should splash €100m plus on not Alvarez.

Everyone looks forward to their improvement because it is sure the much they will be able  to achieve if they get that improvement we look forward to seeing from them. Atletico is a team who has got that form and capacity to pose some firm challenge to the point they will have a chance at the title if they put in the work. They just have some challenge with been consistent of which if they are able  to get passed,  we are are sure to see better from them next season.

Alvarez is expensive but Barcelona are ready to splash any amount to get him. Atletico would fetched more money if they accept to sell alvares to Barcelona but it will slow down their performance next season. Alvarez is one of their best players if he is sold out atlectico madrid may find it difficult to secure his replacement so it's better he isn't sold otherwise they won't be able to compete in the upcoming season. And even if they went for victor Osimhen Galatsaray won't sell Osimhen to them because he is their best.

they will find the striker, i think that Barcelona will come forward with Kane or with some great striker from the World Cup who will certainly do well, i believe that there are the conditions to have a strong player in attack for Barcelona, there is the possibility of finding him, certainly, who knows if he will take some current player.

Newcastle bought Woltemade at an inflated price (they had the funds because Liverpool paid them an inflated price for that rat Isak), and they certainly won't sell him for less, Barcelona doesn't have that kind of money. I don't think there's any point in expecting Barcelona to sign any of those three, they’ll likely look for a cunning solution, such as a loan deal or a free agent. I’m not sure if such options are available on the market, but Barcelona shows no willingness to spend a reasonable price.

Signing Alvarez will be a good signing for Barcelona but did you think Atletico Madrid will sell him to Barcelona with what is happening and how Barcelona is trying to make the player to speak in public that he want the move and all the drama? Atletico Madrid are doing everything possible to keep Alvarez on the yea for next season even if he will be on the bench, Barcelona is capable of signing him but what they did is unfair and they don’t know how to respect other clubs.

If i am in Atletico Madrid position i will also say that i will not sell Alvarez because a player like him is very hard to get in the market and selling him to Barcelona will be a big problem for Atletico Madrid because he will always score against them, Atletico Madrid don’t want to sell Alvarez to any La Liga club because seeing him playing well and score against them will be hurting them .

Arsenal have really improved under Arteta and for the fact that they are coming back with more improvements every single season shows that they are really ready to lift the champions league. They couldn't win the champions league probably because of the tiredness of the long season or because they are too overwhelmed with the premier league celebration because they are a team with quality and discipline but for them not to perform the way they use to perform in the final of the champions league shows that something is wrong, though PSG came with attacking intensity and we must commend them for that especially the ability to create chances despite the disciplined arsenal defence and also equalise in that game. But if arsenal continues like this, in the coming seasons, they will compete well and eventually lift the champions league trophy because they are known for improving every season and if they can continue to improve as usual, they will lift this trophy at the end

Coaches always does have their preference with the players they believe will be of great value to their  team, players who do not fit in to their style and pattern of play may mostly not be their choice and so they will want the other over one and that could likely be the case between Rashford and Gordon. 

The price obviously shows the difference,  there is a thing about Gordon that got the coach preferring him over Rashford, and even the price tag having such difference. 

What is clear is that coaches always recruit players who they believe will fit their coaching system even if the player is good but if the coach feels that it is not suitable it will make the chemistry between them bad, I see that Gordon and Rashford abilities are actually not much different, I can even say that Rashford performed well at Barcelona compared to when he was at Man United but maybe Hansi Flick has his reasons why he did not make it permanent and preferred Anthony Gordon who is more expensive, moreover Rashford is not guaranteed to be consistent so it is natural for Barcelona to have doubts.
