Ancelotti is an experienced coach who has managed different clubs from many countries and has won almost all the prestigious awards and competitions as a coach. I think he is the ideal coach for Brazil because he will command the respect of the players. Don't also forget that he is 64 years which entails that he would also be a father figure to these players. I don't also think that he would destroy his reputation by coaching the Brazilian national team because the players are indisciplined. With his experience, he would know how to handle these players and get the best out of them. The Italian coach has productively handled many top players in different clubs, so the Brazilian national team players will not be an exception. I think Ancelotti wants to end his career coaching a national team and Brazil will be an ideal country because they have the talent.

Atletico Madrid was just fortunate to win the game by a lone goal. The club missed a lot goal goal-scoring opportunities but was fortunate to to get just one goal. Diego Simone's side would have regretted their wasteful performance if had gotten a draw. La Liga is very competitive this season with Girona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona in close contests. And it will be a disaster to drop point because other clubs are capable of overtaking.

Today Real Madrid can surely take the lead temporarily from Girona. The current opponent is Cadiz in an away game. There are missing players such as Camavinga, Tchouameni, Vinicius Junior and Kepa according to my source. But this still shouldn't create a huge problem for Real Madrid this evening on beating Cadiz nicely.

Before anything else Bellingham's solo performance might even be good enough to beat their opponent. Cadiz are experiencing a terrible season now and I don't think this will be the game they take a deep breath. It would be nice for Real Madrid to maintain a winning streak too.

It's not surprising that Barcelona meetings with Rayo Vallecano always end in a draw or defeat, because if you look at the head to head history of the last 4 matches between the two. Barcelona has never won. In today match Rayo Vallecano managed to show its consistency on the field by holding off Xavi troops. So if you look closely Rayo Vallecano can be said to attract Barcelona. Barcelona tried many times to get out of the pressure and were still not given the chance. I quite appreciate the Rayo players even though their performance is poor this season but when facing Barcelona they didn't show it at all.

La Liga is tougher than expected, every elite teams zips up for better days ahead while some are reluctant and not portraying impressive performance. You have thoroughly calculated and mapped out the points to be accumulated within these teams when they win and lose. Barcelona happen to be the main points of sights, their performance is more comparable to mediocre team, having absolutely no game pattern with these players displaying skills that are regarded as meaningless because there's absolutely nothing exciting about the game.

Barcelona almost lost in the match against Rayo. I saw that Barcelona experienced great pressure from the home team which made Barcelona unable to score a goal and in the end the goal was created by a Rayo player through an own goal from Florian Lejeune who tried to block Lewandowski but instead went in. own goal and until the match ended both teams were unable to create additional goals until finally the match ended in a draw, Barcelona did not manage to take home three points from the home team but only brought one point but at least Barcelona had to be satisfied with that result.

However, Barcelona has not improved its position, in fact currently Barcelona has dropped to fourth place because third place is already occupied by Atletico Madrid. Many have doubts about Barcelona's performance, it is very clear that Xavi's team seems to be experiencing a decline using only the remaining players, Lewandowski is also unable to do much and is no longer scoring many goals for his team. Honestly, I am very concerned about the Barcelona club this season.

It was expected to see Atletico Madrid overtake Barcelona's position in the third spot after Barcelona lost 2 points against Rayo Vallecano and Atletico Madrid victory against Mallorca yesterday with a single goal. We should mention that Atletico Madrid still lacks one more game comparing to Barcelona, so the gap might be 3 points for the same number of matches played.
Girona will face tomorrow Athletic Bilbao home and are expected to win. Bilbao isn't an easy opponent and they are 5th for the moment. Real Madrid in the other hand, will face Cadiz and this should be an easy match for them. We might see Girona and Real Madrid in the first spot with the same number of points tho.

The draw did mean that Barcelona failed to stick closely to the teams above them, and Atletico Madrid were even able to shift Barcelona ranking this week. Barcelona must be able to change their performance in the upcoming matches because if they continue to lose points then they will not be able to defend their title this season. As defending champions they must be able to show their best strengths this season and this season still has many matches left so there is still time to improve their weaknesses.

Girona will face Bilbao this week and the opponent they face is not an easy team to beat. Well, if Girona fails in this match then Real Madrid will have the luck to return to leading the standings if Real Madrid is able to beat Cadiz. Cadiz has performed quite poorly recently so Real Madrid has the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity this week to return to leading the standings.

It was a shock game to me yesterday, seen Barcelona to ended up draw 1:1 to vallecano that doesn't have squads like Barcelona and they hold Barcelona players very well not to use any favourable tactics to score more than one goal through out the game. It is very clear now that Barcelona will not win this trophy this season because there are many things their coach need to fix before they can return back to their old performance that was making people to predict for their favour before.

Atletico Madrid are doing well in some games that gave them good opportunity to increased their points to 31 points and they are now in the 3rd position in the la Liga league table to moved closed to Girona that is maintaining the second position over some games now, and it has given them the opportunity for people to begin to see them like the team that will battle with Real Madrid in the final in this season.

If Girona wins their next match against Athletic Club, they will move 6 points ahead of Barcelona. If Real Madrid wins their next match against Cadiz, they will move 4 points clear of Barcelona. Closing this point gap will be a tough task for Barcelona. Because the performances of Girona and Madrid are very consistent. On the other hand, Barcelona's performance is not stable. Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid will probably win the title this season. If Barcelona continues with such erratic performances, winning the title will not be possible.

Unai Lopez's goal was one of the most beautiful goals we watched this year. I really liked it.
It was an unlucky day for Barcelona, it is very sad that they are losing points in such important matches. It causes the points gap between them and their rivals to widen.
If the referees had awarded Barcelona's penalty, they would not have lost points at the end of the match. Still, I would like to see a Barcelona playing better. We are watching a team that makes too many mistakes in defense this year

Barcelona is little by little moving away from the title race. I think this is bad news. A difference of 3 points with the 1st ranked team which still has 1 match left means that Barcelona could potentially be left even further behind. If Girona, Madrid and Atletico Madrid are able to finish the match with a win then it will be a very difficult mission for Barca to chase the title. We know that in the Spanish League, even a difference of 3 points is very difficult to overcome.

It is a fact that Vallecano is a team that is difficult for Barcelona to beat and in the last 5 meetings between the two, Barcelona have never won against Vallecano. I think Vallecano has become an obstacle for Barcelona's points and statistics prove that Vallecano also often beats Barcelona. Luckily last night was a draw, otherwise Vallecano would have continued to add to their record of wins over Barcelona. Xavi must immediately find a solution to the deadlock his squad faces in important weeks like this if they still intend to be in the title race this season. Moreover, now they have to be shifted to 4th position after Atletico won against Mallorca.

I saw that the Barcelona team played very badly in this match, the team's performance was really lower than usual shown by Xavi's men in the match against Rayo Vallecano, in fact I saw that there was a slight advantage for Barcelona to get points, if there were no kill goals. from the Rayo Vallecano players, maybe Barcelona will experience defeat.

This result makes Barcelona even more points behind in the La Liga standings, but I only focus on the team's performance, if Xavi is not able to revive the performance of the Barcelona team, perhaps they will be even further behind in points from Real Madrid and Girona.

Being held to a draw by hosts  Rayo Vallecano was not a good result for Xavi this match did not provide any benefits if it only shared points. Making Atletico Madrid now occupy 3rd position.  Girona and Madrid will soon leave Barcelona even further  behind because the remaining  matches they have are a big asset to be put to good use.  Bilbao will visit Girona headquarters where home or away is not a problem for Michel squad as long as they are able to dominate possession of the ball.  Michel always emphasizes this strategy so that his opponents are busy defending. Girona style of  play is  increasingly effective.  There are several rumors that Girona players are not fit but I hope this will not be an obstacle to getting full points against  Atletico Bilbao later.

And yet a member here discredited the efforts Girona have been putting into their games in the league. No club is perfect however strong and powerful they are and can lose or draw any game that they play. Ordinarily, one should expect that barcelona will win all the matches they play with these smaller clubs but they have ended in failing some while drawing at some. That’s the game. This draw have caused Barcelona to fall to the fourth position and Girona at the second position of the league. As far as this season his concerned, they have done tremendiously well in the season of this league.

They've been my favorites to win the Spanish La Liga this season but they've not been swinging that way for a while now, too many Injured players and too many points given away.
Rayo Vallecano has done well, for they have accumulated a joint total of four points from the two biggest clubs in La Liga. This should make it three wins out of five when facing Barcelona. Let's not focus on the Penalty, if Barcelona was in a good form, this is a game they should have won comfortable. Xavi Hernandez was keeping some players for the Champions League against Porto.

Girona is one bloody hell of a team, they have done well, I will not predict the outcome, I can't wait to see who beats who tactically.

Valancia failed to secure the three points against disastrous Celta Vigo who've been on a very bad form.

The draw was pure luck for bacelona. The own goal by rayo's player has become the main reason why barcelona was getting draw but the performance if this club is declining so hard. People who watch the match must be disappointed with some things from xavi.

Here's the things.

1. Xavi was not giving arraujo and konde to play
2. Gundogan and raphinha were starting from the bench at the late game.

Xavi keeps use young talented player like yamal. Sometimes, this is good but keep losing more points is not good for barcelona. Xavi needs to learn from his mistake.
Im feeling so amazing with the goal from Unai Lopez. His shoot is very strong. It was also hitting the hard angle. The dream to win UCL is far if barcelona keeps show the current performance.
It will be out even early.

Why doesn't xavi learn from the previous mistake? He is always underrating his opponent.

Rayo Vallecano is hard to beat at home against them. And I had a lot of doubts whether Barcelona could win this match. And so I stopped myself from betting on a Barcelona win. Barcelona have lost two of their last three matches at home to Rayo Vallecano. At home the Vallecano team is strong. And they played well enough against Barcelona yesterday. But I was not satisfied with Barcelona's performance. The team is dependent on Lewandowski. Barcelona can win if Lewandowski performs well. Otherwise it will be much more difficult for Barcelona to win against any team. Barcelona won't be able to win the title without reducing this dependence.

The match was not an easy one for Barcelona, I'm permitted to say it was complicated, their expectations was caught short and everything goes unbalanced on the sides of Barcelona. Draw becomes an option for an elite team simply because they failed to execute good opportunities of scoring. Rayo Vallecano was trying to cook Barcelona at Estadio de Vallecas but the Bluagrana escape with a narrow draw tie. Xavi Hernandez seems to become impotent these days because watching the results been produced, there's absolutely nothing to be happy about.

Im doubting barcelona to win la liga if the club will continue to play like the match against rayo. Barcelona has been showing the decline on its performance. The club didn't even have club where the club shall bring the ball.
The thing that i was aware if barcelona has been changing the strategy which was making the game play become less effective. The club was so difficult in making the chances. Lewandowski like did nothing in this game.
Rayo is very strong and im praising it. It was able making barcelona was struggling. Rayo can't be underestimated when it was using defensive strategy. Xavi needs to think how to create a strategy that can break it.
I think that missing gavi is really giving a very bad impact to the club. missing 2 points are still bad consider barcelona in the title race against some strong clubs in la liga.
Barcelona needs to learn from its mistake. Xavi needs also to use long pass strategy.
