Financially, YES. If it's about the competition to get la liga trophy and it's not yet. Xavi has used his special skill to push barcelona exceeds their limitations. In result, barcelona's performance was always so amazing lately. Anything can change in matter of weeks.

Things will be worsening for barcelona next season. Club has no money to buy the new player.  

For Barcelona at the moment I think it is going to be difficult to hold on the 2nd position. There is no guarantee that they will win the remaining nine matches. Girona, on the other hand, have a good chance of retaining the second position. Barcelona and Girona have played a total of 29 matches at the moment with Barcelona having 64 points and Girona having 62 points. As there is no big difference in points between them, Barcelona must challenge for the 2nd position. With Real Madrid at the top this season, 8 points ahead of Barcelona, There is no chance of removing them from the top position.

In fact, Real Madrid is also a team that lost points, but Barcelona could not take advantage of these opportunities and get closer to its opponent. They also do not have a player squad that can win every match.
I think it is a good thing that Barcelona is in second place in the league, even though there are so few players and they have not been able to achieve success in the past seasons. We have a little more time until the end of the season, it is not impossible for them to catch Real Madrid, but it is very difficult. Of course, Girona can also surpass them

Sorry guys, Realistis I don't think girona will think about targeting to become champions at the end of the season, we know so far girona Is only the bottom team even though they have the same ownership as Manchester City but still girona has never been a title contender except in this season which can be said they are very lucky,  If it were true, as you said, they were targeting the tittle from the start of the season, of course we would have seen a lot of improvement in their squad previously , but in fact we don't see it at all.

Losing the opportunity to win La Liga is of course very painful for any team that has been ambitious since the beginning of the season but I don't think Grona will be too Pressured by the failure, because indeed since the beginning of the season they have never targeted the championship and of course If they end the season at the top of the table or the European competition zone then it will be a great achievement for Girona later,Moreover, they did not spend a lot of money to buy players like Madrid did.

It doesn't really matter if real madrid keeps win the game. In order to be number one, Barcelona must be able to win any games, and Real Madrid bottled some games. This is the most possible scenario that will help barcelona to win the competition. We can stop to talk about barcelona's chance to win the competition if its opponents are alwasy getting perfect result.
It doesn't matter how many times Barcelona wins the game, and it's all useless if Real Madrid consistently gets three points. Barcelona can only hope real madrid to bottle some matches.

Honestly, I feel sorry for the Barcelona club, they have to get a star player when their career is almost at the end of the line because he is no longer young. Even though Barcelona has full hope in Robert Lewandowski because he is the only good striker that Barcelona has if he no longer has enthusiasme then Barcelona will rely on who else? Indeed, Barcelona does not only have Lewandowski and there are other players who can be relied on, but Lewandowski has played a very important role in the Barcelona club so far. But unfortunately this season he is no longer very productive and it seems like last season was his last season where he still had extraordinary performance.

But I think the decline in Lewandowski's performance was caused by the injury he suffered last time this season which made him play more carefully so he didn't dare to be too aggressive because his stamina was a little different, in my opinion this is normal for him to maintain his body condition so that he doesn't get injured again and make The club would be more chaotic without him, but that's why Barcelona hasn't performed optimally this season.

Even so, Barcelona's recent performance has started to improve. Lewandowski has also scored another goal to bring Barcelona to victory, even though he is no longer sharp, at least he will try his best so that Barcelona does not experience defeat because the remaining matches this season will determine the fate of Barcelona next season and he also has to prepare before meeting PSG in the Champions League.

Before Xavi was announce he want to withdraw from his current position Xavi has been says that Barcelona is deserved to gets a better manager than him but what Xavi done for Barcelona is really impressive and i still remember when Xavi first time arrived to Barcelona as the replacement of Ronald Koeman at that time Barcelona performance is really messed up moreover at Champion League Barcelona was lost with big scores 8-2 from Bayern Munich besides that Barcelona also lost Messi because they had decide to let Messi moved to PSG so Barcelona conditions at that time is not really good but gradually Xavi has successfully to solved the issues and the result is Barcelona can gets Laliga trophy last season

Xavi indeed feel dissapoint to see Barcelona current performance so that's why he decide to leave but i don't think it's entirely his fault because in the last several season Barcelona has facing financial conditions which makes Xavi unable to bought the players he wants and actually Barcelona still attempts to defending Xavi so that's why although some of names were linked to Barcelona as the candidate for next manager but Barcelona owner has been confirmed they haven't look for new manager this because Barcelona owner feel there is no guarantee new manager can bringing Barcelona to performing well so they still hopes Xavi will change his mind and still being an Barcelona manager for much longer

In last five matches, Barcelona have best performances amongst clubs in top four of La Liga. This good form recently helps Barcelona to jump to the second position and take it over from Girona.

I agree with you. Girona surprisingly managed to maintain their good form even after the first half of season but last month, their performances dropped a lot. Hence they dropped many points and it together with good form from Barcelona, costs them a second position. With Girona, it's not strange if they will fail to reclaim their best performances in last matches of La Liga. They will nearly not able to get a second position back and a more realistic target and task of Girona, is secure their third and even fourth position when La Liga ends.

Yes, Barcelona's current situation can be said to be less than good, so Barcelona's fate next season will definitely be more difficult than now. Because as you said, next season Barcelona will lose its current coach and also lose some of its players. So Barcelona will definitely be confused by this condition. Coupled with Barcelona's current poor financial condition, this will certainly confuse Barcelona's management even more. Apart from that, next season Barcelona players like Lewandowski will not necessarily perform better than this season. So I also don't know what Barcelona should do with this situation. The reason is, regarding Xavi's replacement next season, there is no news yet about who his potential replacement will be in the Barcelona coaching chair. Therefore, of course next season Barcelona will experience more difficult times than the current season. But even so, hopefully Barcelona will have a solution to all these problems. Because if next season Barcelona slumps or is unable to compete with other clubs in Laliga, it certainly won't be exciting.

Apart from that, next week Barcelona will face Las Palmas in LaLiga. In my opinion, in this match Barcelona can definitely take home the full 3 points. Because so far Las Palmas is a team that is not very strong. So Barcelona should be able to win, even with the current situation.

Personally I don't think it's possible for Girona to finish second in the table. And if Girona can't improve their performance, it's challenging for the team to qualify for the Champions League.
In the last few matches we have seen the performance of Girona very erratic and unstable. This team failed to play consistently well. The team's performance in both defense and attack has been erratic. And that's why I think Girona's performance is very unlikely to stabilize again this season.

The performance of Barcelona team players is now stable. In the last matches we have seen good performances from Barcelona players. And Barcelona team is not interested in losing the second place in the table. Barcelona players are also in good form now. Barcelona can hold the second place in the table.

I made it clear that it's not certain that Barcelona will finish in the second position in the La Liga table if they fail to win their matches. Barcelona needs to win at least seven matches out of the nine that are remaining for them in the league if they want to finish in their current position in the La Liga table.

Xavi chose to resign this season because he felt failed to bring Barcelona to a better position even though we know he has the ability to manage Barcelona because he gave a title last season, he must have another reason why he should go earlier and in my opinion the most appropriate reason is that management cannot bring the players that Xavi wants while the main competitors like Real Madrid might bring in new players like Mbappe next season so he thinks he will be in vain to compete with Real Madrid without a new striker.

Arteta was rumored to be with Barcelona next season but so far there has been no official confirmation, I strongly agree if Arteta really came as a new coach because his play style was in accordance with Barcelona, it's just that the same obstacle will occur if Barcelona management cannot provide players in the target list. what do you think about this rumor or is there another more decent coach?

Girona will be in their best form now in order not to finish the game in a position worse than the one they are on now. They have really missed big time in the league this season and that cannot be corrected now again but can be controlled. Barcelona will finish in the position they are now if they remain consistent and win all of their remaining matches including the one with Real Madrid. Only when if they loss to Real Madrid will affect their position is when Girona don’t miss in any of their remaining matches too. If they do, Barcelona still stands a good chance to finish in their second position after Real Madrid’s victory as the La Liga champions.

The match in La Liga is almost over, and it seems that Girona is not too enthusiastic anymore and still wants to maintain its best position in the top five of the standings. Girona's main goal is to try to become champions this season, but if they can't do that and have to accept the results, being in the top five is quite a good achievement for Girona, and at least it could be the start of Girona's journey for next season, where they might be able to win first place.

If Barcelona can't hire a better coach than Xavi Hernández, I also think that Barcelona will fall even worse. It is normal if the fans want to see a better performance of Barcelona, but the club management who has the responsibility of handling everything. The club management should make a positive statement about Xavi Hernández, they must defend him. But what we see in the reality? Instead of defending Xavi, the club management lets him go. It is a very worse thing to do by Barcelona club management.  

Yeah, actually this team is not in a good condition. They have lack of experienced players, too many young players, and have a problem with financial. I can understand if Xavi is difficult to get a trophy for this club. Now, Xavi also may feel tired, he may be successful in his next club.

I may not be entirely correct, but I believe Real Madrid has built a stronger club compared to Barcelona. By stronger, I mean Real Madrid has been more successful in branding and marketing to generate revenue for the club. This is an aspect where I think Barcelona has fallen short in comparison to Real Madrid.

As a club, it's crucial to explore alternative revenue streams to bolster finances, which can then be utilized for player acquisitions. Barcelona certainly has financial resources, but Real Madrid appears to excel in branding and marketing strategies which allows them to purchase players more effectively both for the present and the future.

Since the departure of Lionel Messi from Barcelona, there has been a noticeable gap in the club, although they haven't performed poorly. Real Madrid has also capitalized on their star players like Cristiano Ronaldo, to generate substantial revenue. These strategies provide clubs with the means to acquire not only star players but also promising talents who can contribute both immediately and in the long term. As for effective scouting processes, it is essential for both clubs to identify suitable players which means a meticulous approach to scout for aplayer , and I feel like Real Madrid is likely to maintain an edge over Barcelona, not only in the current season but also in the seasons to come.

Barcelona without doubt isn't performing at the top of their potentials and for a team that is considered as one of the best teams in Europe in the last two decades, Barcelona is currently not where they're supposed to be and that's why a lot of people are of the opinion that Barcelona is currently down.
The club's manager Xavi Hernandez isn't getting the kind of praises he deserves at the club because despite the numerous injuries to some of the key players of the club, Xavi Hernandez have made sure the club is still competing for major honors. They're currently in the quarter finals of the UEFA Champions League competition also second on the Spanish La Liga table but I don't think they stand a good chance to win either of the two trophies.
The club's manager Xavi Hernandez have announced that he's going to leave Barcelona at the end of the season even if they wins the UEFA Champions League title this season and that I think will be big blow to the club's quest to improve from their inconsistency

Regarding Real Madrid and Barcelona, Real Madrid was the team that always had better players and a better financial situation compared to Barcelona. Now it seems Barcelona has some problems with keeping the players they already have like Joao Felix but Real Madrid is thinking about hiring even more players.
Alphonso Davies is the next target for Real Madrid, he is currently the player of Bayern Munich but he received an offer from Bayern Munich so far and he wanted to think about the other offers he can get. The contract of Alphonso Davies ends in 2025 and Real Madrid sent an offer of 50 million euros for him while Bayern Munich wants 60-70 million euros for this Canadian player.

It's been Gironas strategy to always have a way of winning small teams and mediocre teams and use that as a. Edge to gradually get up the table, that was exactly how they actually managed to get to the top of the table earlier this season without dragging much attention to their selves until they were up there already before they were noticed and they had already accumulated a lot of points already to eel them up there.

Even if they happen to drop points they will still strive to still be amongst the top four in the table, because they have already gotten enough points to help them cushion any effect of losses if they happen to get them so their battle to staying amongst the top four team isn't fierce again like that of other teams who happens to still be battling to get to the top of the table, this still doesn't mean they will be slack in their performance thinking that they have been able get that top position and are not going to fall again any soon, such will only mean that they will struggle getting to the top again.

It's very possible if rhy loose this opportunity, they may never get to be even amongst the top four on the table this season again, but at this time Girona needs not get any losses again if not their results will be greatly impacted, if they  manage to get wins or draws, it will be a fair one and it will really help them a long way much more than it will be if they have to suffer losses again too often this period.

Barcelona will fall even more because the fans seem to believe that only them are entitled to good performance. How many coaches can perform the magic Xavi did with that poor squad ?

Young players, injury laden squad and little to 0 squad depth, yet the fans have ousted the coach with so many pressures on and off the pitch.

Success is not built in a year, if Barcelona don’t retrace their steps; they are going to be on the Manchester United Dilemma in couple of years to come
