La Liga 2024/25

So the new season will be another exciting one, not becos it will tight But becos of all the changes n new players from Real really, just read on Barcaforum Real will have the following players:

Vinicius / Diaz
Mbappe / Joselu
Rodrygo / Endrick
Bellingham / Guler
Valverde / Modric
Tchoumeani / Camavinga
Davies / Mendy
Militao / Alaba
Rudiger / Yoro
Carvajal / Vasquez

A few of the kids I havent seen but from all praises they are top talents too, n from the showing of the recent games, importantly, Real are able to field A n B teams both capable to win games comfortably, meaning they will be able to focus both the CL AND the league going forward, something Real basically never have done?

Tactical flexibility of Ancelotti n many of the players also also we will see some experimenting n shape changes surely, exciting stuff to watch... Only weakness could be with Kroos gone n Modric old, might not be able to control the midfield as much.

Meanwhile, I expect Flick to sign us a proper LW n offload a few, n guessing Laporta will work some accounting again n we get a couple of more players hopefully, together with his new methods, we might improve some... who knows...

But come to think of what Real did with Mou to try catch to us back in 2012 or so... will Barca but that hungry n try something similar? Or even be able to try? Looking forward to see it already

LA LIGA NEXT SEASON:

• Semi-automated offsides
• Still NO goal line technology
• Only captains can speak to the referee

@futbol_bill, looks like LL will copy Euro with only the captains allowed to approach the referee

Good

No goal line tech is crazy

Vinicius will have to retire bc of that 3rd rule

Vinicius might become captain sooner than you think I think he'll already be the second longest tenured starter next season.

That 4th rule though. There will be a concussion every game.

Yh I think players will take advantage of that concussion rule

No goal line tech is basically the Spanish FA president or whatever saying fu to anyone? Cbf looking up who it is, its all so corrupt...

Tebas says goal line tech is too expensive for how often it is actually used in games. Maybe true, but given that often these rare instances can be title-deciding, this logic is retarded.

Lol, as if Tebas is short of cash? He could use part of his Extremely oversized salary to pay for it. Seems he just doesn’t want to deal or accept how poor the referees are in la liga. I think refereeing, racism and Tebas itself are what’s wrong with la liga!

Barca 2009- to now would be nonexistent

Araujo out until at least Nov.. El Clasico is on Oct 27 at Real... so it will be prolly:

Cancelo Kounde Cubarsi Balde
Vs
Vini Mbappe Rodrygo/Bellingham

Lol, Cancelo will not be there

Was more of hoping, who knows what Flick wants n Laporta can pull... if not, we may have De Jong as CB n/or Roberto as RB, even better Real 5-0 in that case...

Barca no wonder they tried to force FDJ out by hook or by crook. My words, his contract is crazy

His contract is crazy but doesnt it look worse due to a large portion of his wages being deferred during covid?

Probably. But where is MATS if that's the case, didn't he also defer his salary? I think FDJ is on a crazy base salary with it being even more inflated with the deal Bartomeu did during covid.

We just ignoring Oblak casually making 20 mil a year based solely on his previous reputation huh.

Atleti pretend to be coming up against monsters with infinite money but they casually out here dropping 120ME on the likes of Felix. Paying a goalie as much as attackers and making their coach the highest paid one in the world.

I think with Oblak its more like, he is not expendable. They need to keep him, and see no replacement on the horizon. So they'll do what they can to prevent anyone from making a move or prevent him from leaving.

Fighting the lonely fight

️ Carlo Ancelotti: "Where do I see Mbappé playing? I see him play in front, and the front is very wide - the attack is quite wide, the pitch is 68 meters and the attackers should cover that.

If you ask me where Vinícius played last season... He didn't play left winger. The key… pic.twitter.com/3FtP2ylsky

Flick seems to not consider Roberto part of the plan when asked about the Barca captain he just said "hes not our player now" LOL~! FKING FINALLY~!@!!!

Pretty clear he seems to be able to tell the good from the shit players N he seems to love Gavi... cos he wants the physically fit players who will give their all every game, Gavi definitely the best example...

Wonder what will happen to Pedri if he cant cut it physically as we all know he might not...

Seems to be keeping Ferran... so thats still fked... WE NEED NICO SO WE DONT have to play Ferran or Fati there again FFS!

Its pretty clear the Real attackers now can basically play any position they like, all good enough to... n together just roaming around everywhere running rings around opposition defenders... mouth watering tbh...

Breaking: The Civil Guard has concluded that Barça paid Negreira for ghost reports and have also discovered €3m in his wife's accounts.
