Flick's men have been trying their best and have been of great performance aswell so I'm hoping they are going to be able fight back after this little set backs they are having this period that emanated from some technical issues in the team. Atletico been really good this season that some people have been thinking they are going to have a chance at possibly winning the league title but I don't really see that happening again this period because Madrid will be back on their feet soonest.
Barcelona started this season so amazing but they began to fall or free fall recent weeks. Now Barcelona are at the third position but they have only 2 points more than the fourth team, Athletic Bilbao. Risk of falling to the fourth position is very clear but they will be safe with a position in top four in next several match days. The biggest challenger for top four is Villareal with 30 points now, 8 points less than Barcelona but they have one more match that can help Villareal to reduce point difference to only 5 points less than Barcelona.

If Barcelona continues their fall, Villareal can kick them out of top four in 2025. Big warning for Barcelona, Flick and his players to play with more carefulness and focus, with challenge from Athletic Bilbao and Villareal.

on the other hand, Barcelona also has to face bad news regarding Dani Olmo. Worse, Barcelona's appeal for Dani Olmo's registration was ultimately rejected. This is sad.
These news mean real trouble for Barcelona, but I think they will solve it eventually as it has always been. I can't remember a case when Barcelona did indeed fail to register a player and then the player had to leave. They somehow got the money by selling something from their club.
They have indeed experienced similar things several times and finally at critical times, they managed to do it. Hopefully this time they can also anticipate and find a way out as soon as possible. Barcelona is currently trying and in the end they might let go of Dani Olmo or not sign a new player in the transfer market later. Something must be sacrificed indeed. While on the other hand if Dani Olmo is not successfully retained, then there are already several top clubs waiting for him.

But for now, Dani Olmo has managed to return to training again after a certain decision.

It was actually a very good comeback from Simeone's gang. Hansi Flick's side was ahead in this match but played really well in the second half. But to be honest, Hansi Flick's men also missed a lot of chances. And I think if you made so many chances, at one point you probably don't even deserve to win the match. But I would say that The Catalan giants played well enough to get at least one point from the match. It was actually pretty sad that they have ended up losing the match. I am actually a little surprised to see Atletico Madrid at the top of the table. But I also like this kind of competition. It's not one-sided at all and it looks like in this season Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid all are going to be in contention for the title.

Yep Barcelona experienced a high decline in performance in the last few matches before Flick managed to bring Barcelona to the top of the standings but he lost balance in a few matches towards the end of the year 2024 maybe his strategy has begun to be read by his opponents so that Barcelona is quite difficult, Hansi Flick needs to make good use of the transfer market later to balance his squad again and in order to have more options to carry out the latest strategies with his new players, BTW Real Madrid seems to have bounced back from the slump that befell him at the beginning of the season, especially in the run-up to Q4 2024 they were very inconsistent and fixed it again.

I don't know if the core of Barcelona's problems is the lack of new players, for me it's not about that, for me it's about the way they Play , it's not Working out for them Anymore , all the teams know how to play, they read their strategies and they're not successful Because there are no variations, that's what happens for me, but they have very good players, a great Team and they have attacking Defenders for everyone's praise, really Barcelona Should play with the Teams Imagining themselves as Madrid , maybe they play very well.

The squad depth that Barcelona has built is currently very ideal with the financial capabilities they have, but it is not enough to compete with Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid this season. So anyway, Hansi Flick will continue to try to add strength, because having more capable rotation options to navigate the second half of the season is a necessity. I think Hansi Flick since taking over the role of manager, has worked optimally and utilized all the potential of his players. Overall, it is difficult to mention a single reason why Barcelona performance has declined lately. Many assume that Barcelona must immediately find a replacement for Lewandowski, his performance is now erratic, and that makes Barcelona difficult to score goals.

In contrast to the English League, apparently La Liga has a very long holiday for its players. Real Madrid will win its first match of the new year just a few days after the celebrations, so perhaps it will be one of the less predictable matches for some reasons. If the players participate in too many celebrations and do not maintain their fitness, then the team's performance will not be as good as expected. There are usually some declines in big teams like previous seasons, but I think Real Madrid have the best plan to avoid them.

This might be the best opportunity for Atletico Madrid to win the title this season, because they have really tried their best to keep up with their quality, despite that they are always been outshine by Barcelona and Real Madrid. With their current performance and how strong they are in both defense and attack, we might get a surprise package from them by the end of this season.
Before thinking it's the best time for Atletico to win this game, you may have to consider that the league hasn't gone half way yet and all the teams in the la Liga literally have equal chances at the whole game and will most likely have a chance to win too, as for Madrid and Barcelona, they are two teams that have got the experience and have got time enough to still get back in their form and win the game so I will not  be agreeing to the idea that Atletico has got that chance now until if they are able to maintain that position long enough till beyond mid season.

If I consider the points tally for the top three teams in La Liga then clearly, no one can really guarantee them to get the trophy this season. In fact, if for example Real Madrid are currently at the top of the table with only a very close points gap like that, then there is no guarantee for Real Madrid to get the trophy. So,if it is only about Atletico who are currently at the top of the table then of course, the top three teams still have an equal chance of getting the La Liga trophy this  season and so, no one can really be a guarantee  to mention one of them to get the trophy.

The interesting thing about Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid is Real Madrid has much better players and coaches and they have got much more money in this team which can help Real Madrid to have better performance in La Liga games while Atletico Madrid usually can't be this good since we remember from this team.
I expect to see Real Madrid taking the place of Atletico Madrid in the first place of the table again in the near future once they have their players in better form.

Real Madrid will start winning more matches thanks to their player superiority compared to Atletico Madrid. I don't know about the coach, Diego Simeone is a very good coach, if he wasn't a good coach, he wouldn't be able to leave Real Madrid and Barcelona behind and make them first, exactly, what matters is how long Atletico Madrid can continue this. Still, I believe that Real Madrid will take first place again.

Atletico Madrid would be my best shot to win the La Liga Cup Competition this season. I don't want Real Madrid winning it again this season, Barcelona has a great manager but financial issues will not let them get players they want,  so I'll say they'll never be winning the league this unless they get a new defender and also a striker to partner Robert Lewandowski. Real Madrid are even yet to understand themselves so I feel like,  it's has got to be Atletico Madrid winning it this.
Atletico Madrid have a good chance to win Laliga this season, they are among the best teams based on performance, and they are still good defensively which is the main advantage Atletico Madrid will have over the likes of Barcelona and Madrid because they are good defensively and other teams are not too good defensively which is why I will also support Atletico Madrid even though it will be difficult for them.

Looking at their next three fixtures, Atletico Madrid can still maintain their top spot because almost all their next three matches are winnable, and if they are able to be consistent for a while, they will mount pressure on Madrid and Barcelona which might also affect their respective performances.

The race for the triple championship between Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and Barcelona seems to continue until the end of the season. This year, Simeone seems to have built an effective team. I already thought the forward line was very good at the beginning of the year. As far as we can see, they are also very successful in the defense area. They did not give many goal chances to Barcelona's attackers. They only conceded one goal and I think they played a successful defense game in this match.

I don't want Real Madrid winning it again this season, Barcelona has a great manager but financial issues will not let them get players they want,  so I'll say they'll never be winning the league this unless they get a new defender and also a striker to partner Robert Lewandowski. Real Madrid are even yet to understand themselves so I feel like,  it's has got to be Atletico Madrid winning it this.

I think I would gladly wish that as well for them Atletico Madrid team because this season Atletico Madrid has been so consistent with their performance and they should get rewarded with the trophy for a job well done this season if they keep getting all the points in their matches. There is a high chance for Real Madrid to also get the trophy this season despite their inconsistent performance this season, Real Madrid has got a lot of injury issues but they are so experienced in the league and they will likely try to defend their title if they bounce back to their good form. Barcelona may not likely have the chance to win the league again not because of their financial issues but because they are not on their best performance again after starting the league in good form, Atletico Madrid just needs to keep winning matches so they can have the opportunity to win the league again.

Coming from the bottom to take the first place isn't a guarantee ticket to anywhere, the battle remain the same until the final 38th game for each game is played respectfully, that's when I will believe Atletico Madrid are going to win the league but for now, nothing changes even if Barcelona performance doesn't improve anymore, I still believe that Real Madrid are going to do turn up better than what they have done since the beginning of the season in the second leg.

By February, I'm expecting a huge change in the domestic leagues because that's when I expect knockouts should began. There is going to be division of interest between teams as nobody will want to miss the both, that's when you will know the team that can multi task and the ones that will quit one to have one or the greedy ones that are privilege will want to win the both. In all, Real Madrid understand how to maneuver all of the pressure from any league they are in.

Atletico Madrid is fighting hard for the title this season and they will try their best to win every game. Sometimes it is true that their strategy is not profitable, but in some important matches I think it works. The match against Barcelona is proof that strategy is useful, but still they will not be able to rely on the same strategy in different matches.

Apart from Real Madrid, then I think Atletico Madrid is a serious title contender this season. Barcelona is starting to struggle to get their best form recently and because of that their chances of snatching the title from Real Madrid are starting to decline. Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid both have a good chance of winning the title, but I know and recognize that Barcelona should not be underestimated.

Atletico Madrid are strong contenders for this season’s title. They’ve had series of impressive wins including the win over Barcelona that made them sit at the top of the league standings. It would be unwise to count Barcelona out of the title race because of some poor performance of late. Barcelona still posses a threat in the league and still have the quality of players and depth to be able to win this season laliga trophy despite of their poor performance.

Atletico are really good this season, they have climbed to first place but I think they can easily fall from there to second or even third, Atletico as far as I'm concerned have never had good stability, within reason of course, so at any moment they can fail. Based on how the situation is at the moment I still think Real will climb into first place and may consolidate there for the rest of the season

Valencia is not a big team again and should be taken into account by Madrid at this time, especially with Valencia current condition which is actually worse than Madrid, in my opinion, Madrid has a great chance to win the match later, although Madrid condition is not stable at the moment but their are still  favorites in the match considering the ambition of the Ancelotti squad who want to continue to be a title challenger and pressure Atletico,  the match will be a very crucial match for Valencia, although they have higher motivation because are playing at home, but facing Madrid is still very difficult for them, currently Valencia is in the bottom two of La Liga and with the current conditions it seems that their hopes of staying in La Liga next season seem small,  I think beating Madrid is an mission impossible  for them.
Real Madrid has everything ahead of Valencia, so I agree with you.
On paper, Real Madrid is a team that has very good squad depth and is ready to beat any opponent, including Valencia, even if their performance is not always good. But recently Real Madrid has proven its consistency which then has a big chance of defending its title in La Liga, so it is natural that their probability of winning against Valencia and Real Madrid is the favorite.

Of course, the points difference between the three clubs is not that big yet, so anything can happen in the second half of the season. This season Atletico is very lucky, after a long time never feeling the pleasure of being at the top of the standings, now they stand proudly after surpassing the points collected by Real Madrid and Barcelona. However, their position is still not safe because Real Madrid is very close below them and could take their position at any time. If Atletico want to become the new champions in La Liga, they must be able to maintain their performance consistently as they have shown in the last seven matches.

There are still games to play in the league, so Athletico Madrid has a long way to go before anyone can think they can win the laliga this season, because I still believe Madrid or Barcelona are the favorites to win the league, and I am confident that Athletico Madrid will fall from first place in the league, and they will lose some games. But if they can try and continue winning games, they can win the league, but it won't be possible for Athletico to win all of their remaining matches in the league because Madrid are coming back to their form, and if they encounter Athletico Madrid, they will almost certainly defeat them in the game. Let the league come back from the break and see how Athletico Madrid will be and see if they can continue winning they games back-to-back in the league competition. Athletico Madrid are seriously performing great this season but I won't believe on Athletico Madrid will win the laliga tittle they are just topping for some weeks.

Valencia is not a strong team this season, but Real Madrid certainly should not underestimate them when they visit Valencia's headquarters early next year. But I am quite sure that Real Madrid can bring home three points from this match because Real Madrid has also improved itself as much as possible. As for Atletico Madrid, I think the runner-up position alone can help Diego Simeone's career for the next contract, because that position can also be said to be a good position for Atletico Madrid, especially if they can win the championship this season.
Valencia currently on their worst time due to poor results things are getting problematic now we have change of coach few days back as management want to improve performance and also looking for consistency which allow them to stay in La Liga which is looking not easy in last 5 La Liga games we have no win for them which is surely giving negativity to players while they are now going to face Real Madrid at the Estadio de Mestalla their record against them is good but with current level of form we can't expect any miracle.

Real Madrid want to jump at the top through this win even their chances are not good enough for keeping this spot as Atlético Madrid is giving much better, and they will surely keep checking for staying in challenge for title race as well.

This season there are many strong teams who are not performing well, maybe Barcelona has performed well in the past and has always been a team that has been in the offensive performance. But I am only talking about these teams in Spain but there are many teams like this in the Premier League, including Manchester City.
Manchester City is a strong team but they are performing very badly this season, just like Barcelona will roar again and they will start performing well. But we will be able to see the change in Barcelona team very soon.
Barcelona is doing far better than City to be fair, they are at least getting some wins here and there, plus they started the season exceptionally well too, so I do not think that this season looks like that much of a big deal.

I believe the best we could do right now would be just letting the team change in a way where they are either growing and rebuilding phase, or they are just trying for something. If they are trying to win the league this season right away, they need to figure out their financial issues and just get some more good players to get that title. But if they realize their debt issue is far bigger problem and just want to rebuild, I would say they should not care about the results this season, and just grow as a team with their young squad.
That's right, Barcelona just need to try to rise and maintain their existence as an elite La Liga team, regardless of whether they will succeed or not this season. With various problems within the team, due to the financial crisis that occurred, fans will understand whatever results are achieved this season. Hansi Flick really needs additional energy so that Barcelona can compete with Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in the future, but the ideal choice is to orbit young players from the La Masia academy. This step in the long term will provide many benefits, and gradually Barcelona will most likely win trophies again.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi made football competitive and also easy. It's quite easy how these how these phenomenal players made history in European football and exited with memorable moments. They're the best football have ever seen, the consecutive competition between them was incredible. Perhaps things changed a little bit when these big names left, the tension and pressure have reduced. Real Madrid president, Florentino Pérez always have his methods of ensuring he grabbed big winnings with Los Blancos. He's one member of the club that presents tactical and scouting to bring in good rare gems.
European football did experience 2 solid decades of extraordinary performances from the two football geniuses called Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi but the truth is that it's almost impossible for either of the to return to any European club again so it's safe to say that their time in Europe is over.
I don't think world football and European football in particular is ever gonna experience the kind rivalry both legends did gave us. Barcelona and Real Madrid were the most beneficiaries of their unbelievable performances and since they left both clubs, finding their replacements have been a big issue especially for Barcelona.

Every era must have different players and their level of success is also impossible to be the same. Ronaldo and Messi were two important players for their clubs at that time so there were many things they had dedicated to the club and vice versa with individual achievements. Vinicius Junior and Mbappe are two big names now in football and both are not rivals but one team that might be able to support each other. Mbappe has not given his best for the club but I am sure that in the future he will become an important player in the team and slowly his individual abilities will continue to improve over time.

Come on, Guys it's just a luck matter. Atlactico Madrid has won it on luck because from the beginning of the match, Barcelona played such an impressive game. They did all of their best to get the goals but due to the lack of finishing skill, they messed it up. But anyway, the results were quite surprising because all of the people were really in the hope that Barcelona would be the victorious, but at the end Atlactico Madrid have taken the victory.
 
Honestly, Barcelona tried their best, but fate did not support them, and ultimately Barcelona lost the match, and due to the impact of this match Barcelona declined to 3rd place. Barcelona should put more emphasis on their attacking spots. Like Robert Lewandowski, he should not miss anymore, he needs to finish clinically. If the team puts more emphasis on scoring this miss spot opportunity, then possibly Barcelona can get a place in the top spot once to make the league competitive.
