La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Rabata]

In as much as I agree with you, the thing is, every club has a salary structure and the reason for these structures is to maintain a salary scale across board. In the absence to this, every and any players will ask for increments so long as they are not on the same with their fellow players. Some will argue that it's the players image, yes it is no doubt but again, will players be having such image rights and deals without the club? I really don't think so, in as much as I love Vini the truth is that, he's not on the same level as Mbappe, it doesn't matter wether his been on the team long before Mbappe.

Such competition between team players is not desirable, it will create jealousy among the players. Vinicius may be right from his point of view, but I also do not think that he is a player on Mbappe's level. Regardless of Mbappe's team achievements, he is still the best in terms of personal achievements and personal performance. I do not like such competition between players, but rather everyone should be satisfied with their position. If he had asked for a salary increase for some natural reason, then I would have supported him. But I do not agree with the request for a salary increase due to competition or jealousy with another player.

My main question now is, if Vinicius now accepts Real Madrid's offer and decides to stay at Real Madrid, will his performance be affected in the upcoming season? Will his relationship with Mbappe deteriorate or improve? I do not think it will be anything positive.

Your question is reasonable. Vinicius is a talented player who is trying to improve himself over time. If we look at the national team, Vinicius' performance is getting better over time. He is a winger and at the same time he has the ability to enter the box and give a good finish. But Mbappe plays football in a very selfish way. Mbappe's speed is very good, he can easily break the opposing defense with his speed. But due to excessive speed, there is a possibility of losing the right position most of the time. If he is aggressive and tries to perform as a team instead of short of the target, there is a possibility of scoring more goals. But Mbappe plays selfishly in this position most of the time. Which I personally do not like. Because in such situations, goals are not scored most of the time. So I think if a forward cannot finish properly due to excessive speed, he should focus more on team play. So I think Vinicius will not easily find his success if he plays in the shadow of Mbappe.

[Halifat]

The tournament can start with any team but the real battle starts when the big teams start. The focus of the league is on the star players who are in the big teams. It is not yet time to say how well the Real Madrid team will do but in this bad situation of the team, Jose Mourinho has become the manager and he will try to win at least a trophy in his first season and he is organizing the team accordingly.

Real Madrid certainly have something to prove, however it is not easy when the changes are so extensive. Mourinho will certainly do his best, but it is still a team to try and test, not only in training. So having a radical change regarding defense can be a good thing, or a high risk.

Mourinho presence in Real Madrid will change a lot of things because the he is bringing in players, we all see that they are ready to compete in any level, real Madrid have declined for the past two seasons and for them to get back to their feet it simply means that they have to have an experience manager, I think which was the reason why Mourinho was the choosing one, he also will face some challenges, there is high possibility of him getting out quickly to correct some of their mistakes. I expect to see more trophies this time around because laliga is not like Premier League that have a lot of top teams.

[KTChampions]

Even if Vinnie goes to Arsenal and receives 100% of the image rights there, it will still be less than 50% at Real Madrid.

Overall I think they must have made calculations that triggered the idea of ​​a salary increase. I mean, the idea didn't just come out of nowhere
Whatever Vini does now is done with purpose and there is no way the new offer would come without added value, imo
I'm really curious to see how this drama ends. Yeah, we still have 1–2 months left.

One month. The transfer window in both the Premier League and La Liga closes on September 1st. Both sides will definitely settle the matter before then, as putting it off until winter is completely unrealistic. After Real Madrid issued an ultimatum, Vinicius had to make a decision to either stay or leave, and he might get a small bonus if he decides to stay. In any case, we are expecting the next news from his side. I'm looking forward to it because I put money on him staying

In Spain, La Liga matches will begin on August 15th. There's very little time left until the matches start. The league will kick off with the Alaves-Getafe match. Barcelona's first match will be away against Elche on August 23rd. Real Madrid will play away against Espanyol on August 22nd. Without a doubt, Barcelona and Real Madrid will be the two most important teams in the championship race. Do you expect a surprise in the first week?

Wow, that means there are only about two weeks left until La Liga kicks off. As a Real Madrid fan, I’m certainly hoping my team will secure a victory in their first La Liga match against Espanyol as a wonderful gift for Mourinho on his coaching debut. Of course, this season’s La Liga will see Barcelona and Real Madrid locked in a fierce battle for the title, and I’m hoping Real Madrid will win the championship this season.

Precisely because Real Madrid has experienced a decline in performance in the last two seasons, they want major changes in their team. The management is trying to return Real Madrid to being a team that other teams fear, they are also eager to win the Champions League again and dominate La Liga. Mourinho began to reconstruct his squad by selling several players who were not in his plans and bringing in several other quality players. However, in terms of squad depth, they still lack one pillar in midfield, since Toni Kroos retired and Luca Modric moved to Milan, Real Madrid has lost a general in midfield. Bellingham, Tchouameni, Camavinga and Valverde are all good players, but they are very different types to Toni Kroos. Currently, Real Madrid is in dire need of a new general to control the rhythm of the game. If they succeed in bringing in Rodri, Mourinho chances of winning a prestigious trophy are very high.

Bringing in players is not the greatest problem Real Madrid has at the moment, they have enough quality players that can win major trophies, the problem is majorly lack of team spirit and discipline. Most stars there are out of control. I like Mourinho because he has experience on how to discipline top players while keeping the team coordinated and objective. The bulk of work to be done is getting the players to play as a team and not for individual glory, that is the only way trophies would return to Santiago Bernabeu. We shouldn't expect much from him this first season, although Real Madrid management expects an immediate miracle, a lot of pressure is on Mourinho's shoulders right now to deliver ASAP, he surely knows what he is up against, he's a manager that handles pressure very well.

Both of the team will try as much as possible to maintain their momentum next season to prevent them from conceding much goals like last season, they won't allow that to repeat itself again. I know that it's not possible that they will not concede single goal, but it will be limit if they can able to maintaining their consistent.

Last year, Real Madrid played by focusing much more on the offensive part of the team than on the defensive one, and in fact there was no shortage of goals conceded, something that this year Mourinho has decided to fill, making purely defensive purchases, for now, only defensive ones. We'll see how it goes with the rest of the market.

Leaving would be better for him as he would get a better spotlight there in arsenal than in madrid, Madrid have alot of Players that might overshadow him but in Arsenal there aren’t much and all the expectations and eyes will be on Vinicius which will help him in becoming a player that is remembered and even have a chance to move to another club or stay there to be a club legend. Or he could stay but he has to work harder to become a player that is remembered among Mbappe, Bellingham and other stars

After the World Cup, it can be quite boring to spend the weekend without the league and no betting. But finally, in two weeks we'll see our favorite teams compete again. Of course, each team will start with renewed vigor and renewed enthusiasm in the fight for trophies.

In La Liga the most anticipated team is certainly Real Madrid. Because, between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, Madrid is the only team that has made many changes, both in terms of players and coaches. Of course, it's not just Real Madrid fans who are eagerly awaiting the start of La Liga all La Liga fans are eagerly awaiting the opening matches of each team. Judging by the first matches between Barcelona and Real Madrid, I'm sure they will win their opening matches, especially since opening matches are usually crucial for each team to be able to compete for trophies.

 Madrid are currently beating Fiorentina 2-0 and I checked the lineup but Vini Jr isn't in the starting lineups or as a substitute. I also don't think he'd be coming to Arsenal even though the English side might be willing to accept his conditions but I wonder if Madrid will make adjustments too since they are holding the Brazilian. All I know is Vini Jr needs a change of environment, and he's not as happy as he was during the time of Karim Benzema.

Carlo Ancelotti was at Real Madrid when several defensive players were injured. It was not easy for the team to handle the defense with backup players and the team's performance gradually deteriorated. However, there was not so much criticism about the attacking players.

During Xabi Alonso's time, he tried to rebuild the team but probably due to some limitations, he had to leave Real Madrid after 6 months. Last season, the defense had that problem and many fans also criticized it but in reality, the situation did not improve much.

After José Mourinho became the manager of Real Madrid, he recently signed three defensive players in the centre back position, left back position and right back position. The league will start from this month and we will understand how much the team has improved.

I am also in favor of leaving Real Madrid. Arsenal's forward line is not as strong as Real Madrid's, so the spotlight of Arsenal's forward line will be on him. If he can do well there and continue to win titles for Arsenal, then he may be able to reach a deal that he hopes for. Now he has to decide whether he wants to remain as an ordinary player at Real Madrid or take the opportunity to prove himself again at Arsenal. I think going to Arsenal would be the best decision for him, where he will have the best chance to dominate.

The most important thing is to get rid of this title drought for Real Madrid and get out of the Madrid controversy. It is not yet certain that Mourinho's arrival will completely change the team and restore discipline to the team. Here Mourinho is also likely to fail. So leaving Real Madrid might be the best decision for him.

[Amphenomenon]

The first game week is rarely surprising except when two big teams meet and then we see the not so better really troubling the other. Fans will be anticipating the first game especially Real Madrid since I guess deep down we all want to see the team identity under Jose Mourinho.

The competition will be heavy right from the beginning of the season and I wonder how ATM will perform maybe the b8g team that may give a shocker in the first game might be them.

Obviously, the stronger a team, the higher the expectations. Especially when there is such a drastic change in a team, the expectations are always multiple. With a coach like Mourinho and the purchases made during the summer transfer window, a lot is expected from this team. It cant be otherwise, given that we're talking about Real Madrid.

Not just Real Madrid, we are talking about the Special one, it's good to see him in a big team again.

I wonder where will he be dominating this season because he has to lift a trophy, the drought is too long and the Special one understands the pressure and we know he can handle it all.

I expect to see more trophies this time around because laliga is not like Premier League that have a lot of top teams.

You see the way Jose Mourinho is sophisticating his team, that's how other coaches are doing. Mourinho will definitely bring his tactical knowledge, but don't expect it to be El Dorado for him, hence he is signing new players, others clubs to are not backing down. The expectations are already high, people want to see the magic Mourinho would bring, but being a football lover over this years, I would just have to sit and watch, I don't expect anything Super natural for now, because all of those super happenings takes lot's of time before it happens.

All I know is Vini Jr needs a change of environment, and he's not as happy as he was during the time of Karim Benzema.

This is just a friendly match, and as such, I don't think it has anything to do with the Vinicius issue. After all, it's entirely possible Real Madrid will give Vinicius more time off after the World Cup. However, if this is about Arsenal's interest in Vinicius, I personally still strongly believe he ( Vinicius ) will choose to stay at Real Madrid, as his contract with Real Madrid runs until June 30, 2027.

[Pandorak]

Such competition between team players is not desirable, it will create jealousy among the players. Vinicius may be right from his point of view, but I also do not think that he is a player on Mbappe's level. Regardless of Mbappe's team achievements, he is still the best in terms of personal achievements and personal performance. I do not like such competition between players, but rather everyone should be satisfied with their position. If he had asked for a salary increase for some natural reason, then I would have supported him. But I do not agree with the request for a salary increase due to competition or jealousy with another player.

My main question now is, if Vinicius now accepts Real Madrid's offer and decides to stay at Real Madrid, will his performance be affected in the upcoming season? Will his relationship with Mbappe deteriorate or improve? I do not think it will be anything positive.

The rivalry between these two players has become a hot topic of discussion among fans. For Real Madrid itself, this is a major setback, both players are trying to stand out individually just to get special attention, completely unprofessional. This is one of the reasons why Real Madrid performance has been declining, if only the two of them could work together, we’d see the kind of brilliance we witnessed during Ronaldo golden era with the team.

If Vinicius ultimately chooses to stay at Real Madrid, i personally am not convinced that his relationship with Mbappe will gradually improve. But i also won’t blame Vinicius entirely, because Mbappe is often seen playing selfishly as an individual. It’s not uncommon for him, when in possession of the ball, to use his extraordinary speed to dribble forward rather than pass to another player for a finishing chance.

[JiiBs]

Not just Real Madrid, we are talking about the Special one, it's good to see him in a big team again.

I wonder where will he be dominating this season because he has to lift a trophy, the drought is too long and the Special one understands the pressure and we know he can handle it all.

He has yet another opportunity to prove his worth, his done something with Benfica by emerging unbeaten but, Real Madrid is a whole different league and though we don’t consider the Laliga to be much of a challenge as the premier league, at least the way I see it, there is a serious rival that has being between Barcelona and Real Madrid coupled with the fact that, we expect Real Madrid to win the champions league with this squad which puts a lot of pressure on Mourinho.
There game with Fiorentina today wasn’t that impressive but, that’s not the first team so, we would give it a pass.

If yoy say Vini Jr is not shining playing for Real Madrid then I will say it's a lie, because ragrdless of any match that Real Madrid play Vini jr always shine and give a very good performance, and you will see people talking about him just like Mbappe and other star players in the team.

I just feel like Vini jr is feeling like he was there before mbappe and they are treating Mbappe better than him, financially and I think he aant management should take with so much value like Mbappe, that is what I think is courisng all the saga between Vini jr and Real Madrid.

I expect to see more trophies this time around because laliga is not like Premier League that have a lot of top teams.

Real Madrid has brought in an experienced coach to change the team, and Mourinho is the person who will take the team to a higher position. Real Madrid has been very bad for the last two seasons and they are having a trophyless season, which is a very bad thing for the team, so a good coach has come to bring the team back into competitive form and win the title. Then, with the players that are currently being brought to Real Madrid, the team is definitely ready to compete strongly, this season they will definitely play with the highest strategy to make themselves stronger. However, this season Real Madrid will definitely bring strong players in the weak areas and complete the team well. Moreover, Real Madrid will be the favorite to compete and win the title this season. And this season Real Madrid will play quite competitively because the new coach is quite experienced and has enough achievements, in that case he will do everything to improve the team.

Real Madrid's pre-season matches are an opportunity to test many players. Looking at today's friendly, many of their players are from the youth academy, and Jose Mourinho wanted to try them out. It's true that the Portuguese coach is under pressure, but he learned to cope with this stress during his previous successful stint at Real Madrid. He can experience the same this year, and I think he can overcome it. I hope we can see Real Madrid win the championship because, in Spain, all Turks have a sympathetic view of Real Madrid due to Arda Güler.
