Jude Bellingham IS THE PERFECT SIGNING. A signing that anyone would cherish and admire; why? Real Madrid are getting results on the pitch and outside the pitch. They have got a young star who is committed to playing football while living the perfects quiet lifestyles off public scrutiny or cameras

100M well spent by Perez

I think Barca's current downfall is due to their financial lackings. They couldn't sign any good players in the recent few years, all they were able to sign are the free agents or the young players who lack experience. Although Xavi had won La Liga and Supercopa, I think that was due to the Spanis team's weakness, not much credit could be given to them. Real Madrid had lost their Rhythm last season, but now they are back in the rhythm and in the top of the League. Lewandowski lost his touch and is not at the top of his game right now, they are lacking in forwards and defense and they are in the 4th place in the La Liga right now. They keep dropping points, they might be out of the Champions League for next season as well.

The news is not just about any trophy, but about at least two trophies. It turns out that Xavi is faced with a very difficult task. It is very naive to hope to win La Liga or the Champions League, which means there are two options left where Barcelona must show 100% results - the Spanish Cup and the Super Cup, by the way, the semi-finals of which will be held on January 10th. Barcelona are very lucky that their opponent will be Osasuna, but the second semi-final will be more serious: Real Madrid - Atletico Madrid.

If Barcelona is lucky, Atlético will win, as it seems to me that Barcelona has some chances against them in the final, although I think everyone is waiting for the clasico in the final (probably even the majority of Barcelona fans). But in general, taking into account the fact that the main rivals (rival, to be more precise haha) are still in business in both tournaments, the probability of winning both lies somewhere in the region of 20-25% no more.

In general, such a demand regarding Xavi can be considered as a last warning, because everyone already understands that La Liga is lost, in the Champions League you need too much luck to go high, so Xavi is simply given one last chance. And this chance is not very great, but it exists. Another thing is that I don’t know what will happen to Barcelona when they fire Xavi - it seems that UEFA will now put pressure on the club (because of its position on the Super League) and all the pretexts will be used, and Barcelona has accumulated too many different murky “deeds”. Maybe Xavi is the maximum they can afford in the coming years.

I believe that Barcelona will not win a trophy this season because they are not in good shape and their players' performances are very poor, which is why they can't compete with other clubs in the team, and Xavi needs to solve this issue in the next transfer windows because they need to get some young strikers in the clubs who can perform very well and make the team stronger, but the issue is that Barcelona doesn't have enough funds to buy key players, which I believe is why they loan cancelo and Felix and he will be hard to buy this key players permanently in the club, Because they lack funds, they need should sell some of their players and sign Felix to a full contract so that the club can improve. If Felix and Cancelo leave Barcelona now, it will be very difficult for Barcelona to defeat other clubs in the league. I believe Barcelona has given up on winning the league title and will instead focus on the Champions League.

No doubts real Madrid cannot deny the fact that they have been helped by the presence of Jude Bellingham, I think his signing was one of the best real Madrid dis this season as his performance and contribution to the team cannot be overly emphasized as he has already impacted the team so well and it's very evident.

Acenlotti did a good job when he was able to identify what the team needed the most and who could help them fix such issues and he got him and now it's very clear he was the perfect fit altho they still have a few issues with their striking force which prompted them sorting after mbappe who's deal isn't concluded yet, this is the similar case Barcelona is facing aswell, if only they can get a good substitute for lewandoski as he is gradually loosing firm and it's not a very good one for the team.

Under the condition of contracts that bind the club and the coach, they cannot just conclude and send him off. There are some conditions that need to be met to remain. For example, there are instances where they might say a manager need to have at least 1 Laliga and any other reputable trophy in a year to remain in the club or risk been evacuated and we have seen Xavi gas deliver that last season, I'm not sure if he fail to take this one will warrant his sent off from the club, he isn't the first Barcelona coach to under perform and was sack, even when Messi was here they lose trophies too to smaller teams.


I have learned something from the media, they are good at one thing which is fabricating lies and propaganda to get clicks and traffic, you know it's fake news that travel fast, if they repost a news that nothing of such happen, people will be bored but the moment they announce something like that, people will rush over there to get the gist of something that never happen.

We maybe a rival with Barcelona in every El classico but right now, they are my least worry in the Laliga right now, I'm only concern on how Girona is going with 42 total goal scores and a single lost sitting next to Real Madrid, I want to see then start declining but they don't want to give into that mistakes.

Yes according to the UEFA rules but they havent start the investigation yet, Girona might be still able to play in the Champions league along with Mancity.
It will be the same case as Leizpig and Salzburg (owned by Red Bull) back in the season 2017/2018 and we know how good Mancity to "dodge" any issue with the UEFA.

Barcelona is not doing very great this period and I did not expect anything more from this since the previous season they were signs already and the club is not consistent again and they even struggle to keep up now and Xavi is becoming clueless and Barcelona and Atlántico Madrid have the same point and gradually girona and real Madrid are already going very far with 45 points, it already clear that Barcelona won’t win any trophies, maybe that is why they are not putting in much effort since they know there is nothing for them, and last year was a good year for them at least they were able to win the la liga but nothing for them this season and the same thing that Manchester city is experiencing they might also not get any trophy, all they can do now is too keep playing till the season ends and everybody will rest because there is nothing more to do this season again, the trophy is already for girona or real  Madrid.

They could do that for themselves, what I don't like it the fact that they won't be able to play the Champions League next even if they win the league or qualify amongst the first four clubs in La Liga. Ain't that crazy?

They're literally in no Competition with Real Madrid honestly, Real Madrid be doing theirs. So far this season it also seems like Real Madrid and other big clubs have been the clube chasing Girona at the top. Lovely to see both Toni Kroos and Jude Bellingham leading the highest goals and assist in La Liga. They're doing well to make sure they win the La Liga title.

Girona's understanding makes me happy, they fight for themselves and play like a team should.

If management terminates the contract with Xavi, this will be a big mistake in Barcelona future and I really support your argument here because even though I am not a fan of Barcelona or Xavi either, I see that Cavi is able to bring Barcelona to stay in the top 3 standings even if only with the existing players without being able to choose reliable players, Xavi is able to manage Barcelona players to be able to consistently survive and compete for the top of the standings and for me the reason for sacking Xavi is only because they failed to improve the performance of this team, whereas for me Barcelona still looks fine even though they can't reach the top of the standings, but at least they can surviving with free players in the top 3 standings is good enough and no one will be able to take a team to a higher level just with the existing players and we can see from the history of any coach that if he serves as a coach on a team without reliable players that team will definitely is in the top 10 but Xavi can still bring Barcelona to the top 3 in the standings.
I hope this will not happen and if this is forced to be done by the management Barcelona will have a bad future.

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid deserve to remain respected as the masters of La Liga dominance, as does Real Madrid. The emergence of Girona adds to the drama of competition in the top four of the standings, as their season of stable consistency requires us all to include Michel squad in the trophy hunting list. Attracting more and more every day because Girona is a new title challenger, who has gone from a humble team to a team worth taking into account, Real Madrid should be worried so that they don't get pushed out again.

Girona proof as a team challenging for the title this season will be presented in week 19, when they will face Atletico Madrid. Their ability to beat Barcelona previously deserves a thumbs up, and in my opinion Atletico Madrid has certainly prepared themselves mentally not to lose points and lose their position in the standings.

Real Madrid brought in Jude Bellingham during the summer and it is evident enough that his addition has really helped in shaping the team. It is not about buying numerous player that makes a good coach what is important is identifying what the team lacks and adding that to the team and the team will get back to what the coach want.

I guess this is what most clubs are missing especially Chelsea it's always easy for the coach to shift the blame to the fact that there are no new signings even if they won title with same squad and we saw the outcome for Tuchel after that in Chelsea and still yet Chelsea continued to hold strongly to that idea but Barcelona is quite different they don't necessarily need new defenders though they may need a striker but this is not also a priority in a nutshell, all they need is to get their goal scoring rhyme back it doesn't matters who score what matters is that they win. Ancellotti is somehow the best coach in the world now let be sincere he has opportunity to recruit players but still continue with the squad he has and he has been doing excellently well with them while even making his players getting better.

Well, in reality I don't see a problem in Baarcenola's squad, I don't even see a problem in their defense but the same phenomenon is happening here that happens in Manchester United of the PL, where basically the one who is to blame for a team being like this is the same Coach, of course I don't think that Barcelona will fall into the same mistake as the MU that they never remove the Coach, here the bears are different and unlike the MU the bad Barcelona have a good position in the classification but even so things are not right for them The team is doing well as they are used to, for that reason I consider this guy to have to make a change and not of the players, however there is still a lot of League left to do and the opportunities are there and can make a difference so things cannot go wrong completely, that's why I think that when it comes to doing better, things can make a difference if you try to at least change the strategy, and what Xaavi has set up, well, make it different, something like that to try.

Of course, when we look at it, this may seem difficult, but not impossible, but it is obvious that it took a lot of work to beat Almería, which is last in the table, because things are not as good as many people think, so in This order of ideas can be favorable for them to change for the better, I would ask if as a good fan one can say that things in Barcelona can improve noticeably, as long as I don't get chips, but to say that the rpoeblma is buying more players, the team is going to be decapitalized and they are not going to achieve anything, we have to change the strategy, they have all the material, or is it because of the material that they are doing it wrong, it is because of the same strategy that is failing a lot, that is what I I consider, I take my opinion seriously, because I want this team to be competitive like Madrid and Barcelona because I want Madrid to win, but Madridgnae will also have better players with everything at their best, so that later they don't Say that they won because of the team's bad mood or all those excuses that at least Xavi invents lol.


Well, what I know about this is that if they don't leave things when one is to blame, I don't think it is on the part of the players, the Barcelona players are not bad, on the contrary, very good and they have one of the greatest who is Lewa, for me this has a lot to do with Xavi's strategy, because he does not want to make any changes and sometimes changes are necessary in this order of ideas. If they continue repeating mistakes, failures will continue to come and this can cause things to get out of hand for all of them, for that reason case it can be said that most of the technicians of the other teams in the League already read well what Xavi does and that is not good at all, because just as they read it, they know what he can do and what else he can't, then this can happen so that they continue with those not very good results.

I'm not a fan of Barcelona, but I like that they play well, so that when it's their turn to play with Madrid, they do it well, so that later they don't have excuses and say that things went wrong because they were in a bad moment.

Barcelona unable to pay Brazilian prodigy’s release clause – report




Source: https://barcanewsnetwork.com/barcelona-unable-to-pay-brazilian-prodigys-release-clause-report/

I could never imagine seeing Real Betis taking any point against Girona because Girona is a team they are having perfect performance in La Liga which surprised anyone and they are racing with Real Madrid in a better situation than Barcelona which means they are in a situation which they could easily beat Real Betis.
But it seems taking a draw was all Real Betis wanted to get, in the last five games Real Betis had they had four draws, and one win which means they were even aiming to take a draw in this game.

I agree with you, management and club officials must reflect well, that firing Xavi is not a wise course. The club financial situation is a big problem, Xavi knows more about players than those who only enjoy the results from the stands. I think Xavi has become a great coach by winning the La Liga title last season, in the midst of the chaos of the crisis he was able to overcome challenges and present trophies that not all coaches can do.

It was reported that Xavi was having an argument with sporting director Deco, the media concluded that Barcelona defeat to Anwerp in the UCL group phase was one of the factors. I think this season is not finished yet, and Barcelona still has a chance in every competition they participate in, indeed Xavi has some homework that needs to be completed. On the other hand, management should think about ways to support Xavi so he can be active in the transfer window, rather than thinking about what trophies Xavi can present without giving him enough spending money.

I think Barcelona's management is not wise if they break the cooperation with Xavi, because Barcelona's current performance is also due to their own actions in the past, which makes them unable to move freely, especially in the transfer market. Still lucky they have a coach like Xavi who can bring change when they slumped in the previous 2 seasons, and now they will kick this coach for that reason?
I understand that they want the title this season, but with the limitations they have, they should also be able to think more mature and not just blame the coach alone. Unless they give Xavi some perks and facilities, it still makes sense to me. Now the problem is that to recruit players they have to look for players who are on free transfers. I'm not a fan of Xavi here, but I see here they blame Xavi if they fail to bring trophies this season.

Guys, this season Barcelona coach Xavi has a lack of concentration on the team, and maybe this season Barcelona got nothing, which means maybe zero trophies will they win. Here are some states from last season. In the 2022 season, Xavi just won La Liga and the Supercopa de Espana, and this season, Barcelona is 4th on the league table, which is quite poor as compared to previous years. Despite being in the Champions League, they have the same parallels as previous And I think Mayb will be out in the qualifying round. This season, Barcelona has played such poor performances in recent matches. Only two matches performed well: Real Betis (La Liga) and Antwerp (against UCL); the rest is based on poor performance. And I think if Xavi had a similar poor performance and the end of the season was trophyless, he might be removed from coaching, i.e., removed from managing.

What do the rest of you guys think? ,Will Xavi be able to recover in performance, or will he be given a chance as a coach or not?
What did you think guys give us your thoughts.

Based on the information I got previously, it looks like Xavi has signed a contract extension but with your post, I get different information . But regardless of which one is accurate, I personally don't care whether Xavi will leave or stay because after all, Barcelona's big problem is only 1, that is about the unresolved financial problem.

Because, even though Barcelona still has financial problems, but Barcelona still continues to transfer players or bring in players for high fees. Therefore, at least it will be difficult for Barcelona to overcome financial problems if they continue to do this. Because ya, at least the information I got is that Barcelona is threatened with penalties related to violations of financial fair play, and of course Barcelona will return to a bad situation and conditions.

If they had not lost points in the Real Betis match, they would currently be the leader of La Liga. To be honest, I did not expect such a performance from them at the beginning of the season, but everyone appreciates the football they play now and I think they are very successful.
Barcelona or Atletico are of course good teams, but when we look at their performance so far, we can say that Girona is much better
