Perhaps it’s me, but La Liga seems to be more exciting than ever before. Atleti are back, with great signings that compliment the squad; Bilbao are going to look great and Nico will continue to develop into a superstar; Real Betis have a strong team that could give anyone a run for their money; Sociedad have qualified for Europe again, and that experience from last season will carry them into this one. Overall, I don’t think Madrid will be as dominant as people are making them out to be. Last season was really bad as injuries piled on for every team, but this year will be fantastic.

[@vikhyathmb8229]

The reason why people are calling this Madrid team the most dangerous is because of the potential. The squad assembled during the last two galacticos era consisted of players in their prime but the current Madrid squad is still so young but is already so good. It’d be scary when all these players hit their prime in a couple of years and also the fact that Madrid just made a billion in revenue last season shows that they are financially stable/healthy and can keep adding the best players itw. And yes other European giants apart from City are going through transition which makes Real favourites for all the titles atleast for the next couple of years

[@NIDELLANEUM]

The second Galatico Era managed to be so impressive that, over a decade later (2022 and 2024), the few players left were still good enough for the team to dominate the Champions League. Now, you have to do it with lots of star players who are 25 *at the oldest* which means that, unless something bad happens, you could be set for a whole decade.

The teams have great support and great derbies/rivalries, and a much broader range of tactical ideas than the prem. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying the prem isn't the best league from top to bottom but personally I am really exhausted by the emphasis on efficiency over fun, efficiency over beauty, efficiency over creativity, efficiency over everything, and the copycat nature of tactical trends in the prem.

As a barca fan, yet again disappointed by the board. We had such obvious and feasible targets in merino and williams who would fix so many of the weaknesses of our team and would genuinely make us a lot more competitive. Instead, due to incompetence and a complete lack of proper priorities, we went for olmo instead, a player that we dont need, and who might nd up giving a talent like fermin (who has been insane in the olympics) far less opportunity. The only real hope right now is that all this is because olmo is a player that potentially works better with flick's system but we will have to see about that. Its honestly very disappointing considering just how much talent we have and how much we continue to get from la masia, even with a slightly competent board we should be one of the best clubs itw, but that just isnt the case.

Coz tactically we are there to be exposed since Carlo is not rigid like other coaches but I love it coz it gives us a early 2000s feel to our team.

[@TheOnlyTaps]

*And just to clarify for anybody that sees that later, that doesn't mean Carlo isn't a good tactician. I only always bring that up to give him his flowers with regards to the freedom he allows his players. So we are tactically sound but not in the sort of well drilled and automated way that maybe a Man City is where they follow Peps blueprint to a tee. Carlo blueprint is more of a suggestion and he kinda just allows the individuals to interpret it how they want depending on game state. So that's what kinda leaves us "vulnerable" in a sense coz we just go with the flow. So that's where the early 2000s feel comes from.

Him and Cavani used to clash a lot over penalty kicks, there’s footage of them arguing during live games.

He’s had this villain reputation for years all built off his relationship with a singular player, and it was clear that it was just a relationship that soured.

Here are my thoughts on Barça, as a Barça fan since the era of Ronaldinho. Barça needs Nico, but he won't sign unless they pay more than they can afford, not because he wants money, but because he wants to stay at Bilbao for another season and only an offer he can't refuse will make him leave right now. As for up front, we can definitely build something with Yamal, Pau Victor, and Vitor Roque. We just need a good, young, talented left winger (Nico). If these three can keep improving and work towards forming an offensive core with the already stacked midfield, we won't be left questioning if the hole Lewandowski will leave is a problem. We have a decent defense, although I think signing a few full backs would help the squad depth a lot. Balde is essentially our only left back as Valle has not been impressive with Levante. We also have 1 real right back in Hector Fort, who's promising talent but needs development. I think this season will be more about developing the younger talent and keeping our key players free of injury to at least have a chance at the La Liga title as well as international success. In that regard, Dani Olmo is the most baffling PR stunt Barça has pulled in recent years. This player is great, but we did not need to sign him. We needed more full backs, not another midfielder.

Regarding Barcelona,there were 4 glaring and very visible holes in the squad GK,DM,LW and ST,it has been clear for months that Roque was on his way out Lewandowski is almost if not entirely finished at the highest level ,Felix wasn’t it on the wing,Romeu was useless as a DM,Ter Stegen has been a liability in big games for almost a decade and somehow he’s the captain and the injuries have been crippling for years now. In a window where the club should have planned extensively for next season and had multiple options for each position they signed an injury prone player for 60 mill in the squad’s most stacked position,are forcing a 17yo with 0 pro appearances to play the most difficult position in football in one of the most high pressure environments in football,have another rookie with no pro experience covering for Lewandowski,are counting on rookies and a possible Cancelo(who was horrendous on the 3 most important games last ssn) loan to cover the fullback options all while still employing below par players like Ferran,Lenglet EricGarcia&Iñaki Peña aswell as not being able to get rid of Frenkie de Jong and the 37 mill gross he takes in a season which is around 10% of the entire wage bill while also paying Lewy 34 mill for 20 goals a season, one could say that they can let this season slide and look forward to the next but with the sheer incompetence at the top it’s quite literally impossible to compete with Real and maybe soon even Atletico unless La Masia produces 5 different world class talents for the different positions that are needed.

[@nkwan4848]

As a Barca fan, just ignore, well, 80% of the Barca fanbase, we are just f*cked. Real Madrid is ..., you already know. ATM is looking strong with their roster and also have loads of new signing that if they work out, they can put up a really good fight against Real. And more importantly, they are signings that Simione asked for. And for Barca, well: - No replacement for Busquets, a year after his departure. There are some new kids from La Masia, but whether they will pull a Lamine Yamal or not is still in doubt. - The signing of Dani Olmo, it feels like the sole reason for it is just for Laporta and Deco to glaze themselves. Put the injury proneness aside, tactically, Olmo arrival can potentially detrimental to other players' progress. Olmo playing on left wing will disable Balde's strength and expose his weakness. Olmo as a number 10 will massively reduce the playing time of some of the most promising talents we have, directively affect Fermin Lopez, a player with various unique attributes in comparision to other Barca midfielders. And put Pedri in a position which may not be entirely new to him, but will not utterlize his abilities. That being said, I will still fully support Olmo and hope him the best. So yeah, I may consider going to the nearest pharmacy to buy some pacemakers or smt. This season is gonna be loooong for us Barca fan.

[@nkwan4848]

and another thing, hope we won't make Lamine Yamal play about a trillion games next season like we did with Fati, Pedri, Gavi (and Balde?). I will lose my mind if he got a 7 months long injury and end his season after matchday 2.

[@neemzer7968]

im a die hard RM fan and i totally agree with everything you said. Olmo is an amazing player and i hope does well at Barca, but he is a classic #10 which is not used as often these days and it will slow down the pace of play for the team at times. If hes to play as a false 9 you HAVE better options on the deck like Fremin Lopez and many more. its like, you got a superstar from france, we have the spaniard super star kinda replay! you need a CM, we need a classic #8. and if De Jong leaves you guys are really f*cked..

[@sonicwithglasses131]

Olmo will be fine on the wings, flick alwyas has his wingers inverted, you can see that from the pre season games, also we are going to use double pivots, what you should worry about is if lewa gonna play good, team have energy to press for 90 mins, players play smart(since the system from flick depends on how the players play through the middle) balde learns how to cross and alex valle play rb instead of kounde in smaller games.

[@nas84payne]

I will say, because you’re Barca, you’ll always be attractive to top players + you still have a number of talented players: Pedri, Gavi, Lamine… you’ll be back to the top.

[@nkwan4848]

@@sonicwithglasses131 my point is, playing him as a inside foward would be suitable for him, but will expose Balde's weakness. Because Balde would have to stay wide to provide width, and we can easily see his weakness (his crossing, or just his end products in general).

[@myevokebab]

As a lifelong RM fan it's most satisfying to see how well the club are being run in comparison to some others (and legitimately, without financial doping)Transfer policy seems spot on, coaching great, but there are always criticisms and balanced arguments that can be levelled. First, there are no young Spanish players coming through in the new pack, whereas Barca has a multitude, the youth system at Madrid is only working as a money generator. Second, Madrid have multiple weaknesses as mentioned in your video (defense), but also they have lost their midfield metronome. 2 aging right fullbacks. In footballing terms everyone is underestimate Barca who have a brilliant squad who can compete, but they aren't being run well from a business perspective. If they can get stability on a coaching level and stop making stupid decisions, they will be a force still. I believe a strong Barca is good for Madrid.

That aura and Hype will end when Madrid lose or draw a random game in la liga, probably sooner than we expect. That is because any team in La Liga can be competitive; they are used to fight against Barcelona, Madrid, Atlético, Sevilla, Villarreal, Bilbao or Real Sociedad and win them games as its life depend on it. It is a really tough league, underrated by british media just to sell its farmer premier league to low foreign IQ football spectators. For decades it´s been far more competitive in european competitions thanks to Madrid, Barcelona, Atlético, Sevilla and Villarreal. Madrid have a dream team and strong bench, yet they need to be consistent enough to get titles and also take care of their opponents performance in laliga and champions league.
