It looks like Atletico Madrid might have to face some losses in January transfer window. Griezmann and Felix are the most speculated players to leave these days. Griezmann is rumoured to join Manchester United soon and Atletico Madrid don't look like they are uncomfortable with this. It is the same for Felix. He has been speculated with PSG, Arsenal and Manchester United so far in this month. Griezmann wouldn't help Atletico Madrid make any profit as he will have six months left on his contract.
However Felix can still help them make some good amount of money as his current market price is 50 million euros. They will be quite in loss comparing to the price they signed him for but there is nothing to do about this. He just doesn't seem to be fitting Simeone's game plan.

And i don't know what Xavi is doing to find a replacement for Lewandowski. Barcelona has improved compared to how they started last season, but still they have so much to do to extend the point difference between them and Madrid because only a slight poor performance will cost them the Laliga trophy. I strongly wish Xavi can compensate himself with the Laliga trophy this season but it will mean strategizing and been more observant with no sentiment when chosing his line-ups
Seriously, Barcelona have improved and xavi as a coach is doing everything possible to make the team continue with their performance, so the team will have much hope to lift the laliga title. But seriously Barcelona need to work hard because Real Madrid is very close to them in term of point and with any mistake Real Madrid take over position and if possible Real Madrid take over the position again it will hard for barca to get it back because that will boost Madrid confidence must. I will like xavi to lift at least one trophy this season especially laliga. 
Benzema's contract expires in June 2023, but I'm sure Real Madrid will renew his stay with the Whites again. It's just that, Benzema will only receive a one-year extension until 2024. This is due to Real Madrid's policy which will only give a one-year contract extension for players over 30 years of age. Even though Benzema has made a big contribution, that will not guarantee that he can last longer.
Even in this case I heard that both of them agreed to extend the contract until 2024 last October.No matter how big the contribution is in Madrid, I think for a team this big you still won't see that, especially considering the previous condition of Madrid, which always with the same characteristics threw away some good players who were not too used, so I think this is also a reason for a contract extension one year.
I assume Benzema will not be an exception.
I don't think there is any way Real Madrid will lost out in the La Liga and since their performance currently is above average both in the La Liga and championship so with the way things are Real Madrid will have this season to themselves without much competition from other clubs.
Comparing Barcelona's performance with the previous season, it is easy to see that their performance has improved. If they get stronger gradually. Because this season Xavi has spent a lot of money building his squad. And added several talented players to the team. Hence their performance has improved. But this performance was not enough to win the title. Barcelona need to play better if they want to win the title. And of course, 3 points must be secured against relatively weaker teams in every match. If Barcelona does not play consistently well, Real Madrid will be the champions this season.
Even if you and others think that Barcelona has improved, they are not completely out of trouble. Barcelona are currently relying too much on Lewandowski to score goals, and when Lewandowski is absent or is successfully prevented, it is clear that Barcelona will find it difficult.Of course I also think Barcelona have improved, but Real Madrid will never miss an opportunity to win and defend the title again this season. We still have a chance and we'll keep it close. Two points is not much, and I think Barcelona will still slip from the top of the table where there is a lot of pressure from below. I hope that Real Madrid will continue to keep poin gap with Barcelona and pressure them, and I hope that Real Madrid will again excel.
Whether Sevilla only plays second-tier players or not, what is clear is that their quality is very much different, so even though Sevilla plays second-tier players, at least Sevilla must still be required to win.
There is no good reason for Sevilla not to win in this match because after all, it's time for Sevilla to fully improve their performance so they can get away from the relegation zone in La Liga standings.
I think this match will be easy for Sevilla even if they haven't done well in Laliga so far. Sevilla has the advantage of the quality of players so victory looks easy for them. I'm not underestimating Juventud de Torremolinos, but Sevilla are clearly superior in quality. There is no good reason for Sevilla not to win in this match because after all, it's time for Sevilla to fully improve their performance so they can get away from the relegation zone in La Liga standings.
The following is a list of players who will play in the match against Juventud de Torremolinos.
It is understandable for France to not want Benzema anymore, if there is a problem with the team of course and he caused any issues, but at Real Madrid he looks like he is loved and given chance at every turn, I am not entirely sure if he would end up like Ronaldo in that case.
Sure, in the national team, he may not get a chance but with his club they are going to need him for another 3-4 seasons at least, because Endrick is still so young, not even at the club right now, so they need to postpone Benzemas retirement from the club as further as possible, the more Benzema plays great the more they will save, otherwise they will need a new striker until Endrick is good enough, which is added work and money spent, which they wouldn't want.

The contribution that already made by griezmann and Lloris was nothing for france. It's very bad to see that griezmann and Lloris have very bad attitude. Benzema was not able to playing caused by his injury and that's a common thing for the football player.
I have expected to see him perform during the world cup but that's very sad to say that if he was absent and even retired from the international career.
Benzema was unable to make a full contribution on the field due to an injury which ultimately made Benzema like this, while Ronaldo was indeed unable to control the ball properly due to the influence of his old age to master the ball which of course requires high stamina. As for Antoine Griezmann, maybe this is his best career because he managed to bring France to the final even though he didn't win.I have expected to see him perform during the world cup but that's very sad to say that if he was absent and even retired from the international career.
Antoine Griezmann didn't take France alone to the finals, they all had joint efforts especially in the game against Morroco and England.
You could see how Giroud came to rescue England game and Kylian Mbappe for the game against Morroco. It's just that Griezmann had enough work rate to help his side qualify for the next round.
Ronaldo missed Pre-Season games so missing that saw him drop form as he was busy looking for a club to go after refusal to play for Manchester United cause they didn't qualify for the Champions League.
The form of other players who showed up for Pre-Season was better than him, that means a step ahead of Ronaldo which was too difficult for him to meet up with the level ans intensity they had.
Karim Benzema would be back better stronger and faster, it's a good thing he recoverd before the start of the league once again.
In a few hours Sevilla will be playing in the Copa del Rey and even though Sevilla will be playing away, the opponent will be Torremolinos and even for Torremolinos it is not a strong team. So I think this will be a proving match for Sevilla to win easily, because if Sevilla still has trouble beating the Torremolinos team, which is even a weak team, Sevilla's performance will be very worrying in La Liga if they still can't win easily in this match.
Here it is no longer about underestimating the opponent or not, because their castes are also clearly very different and with Sevilla's very poor performance this season in La Liga, of course Sevilla should be able to win easily in this match.
Whether Sevilla only plays second-tier players or not, what is clear is that their quality is very much different, so even though Sevilla plays second-tier players, at least Sevilla must still be required to win.

It is really interesting that Real Madrid still haven't extended with Benzema. But I assume it has been due to the World Cup process. Maybe they wanted to wait for it to end to return to their targets as always. Benzema was injured for some time as well. However this injury shouldn't have a big impact on their decision to offer a new contract to him.
Benzema is still one of the important players in this team. Real Madrid owe him a lot especially in the previous season. I think they will extend with him at least for two more years.
Real Madrid owes ..but football is not the place of emotion. It's a profession. Who can give good in football and who will benefit the club. Only keep him in the team. The proof of which is Barcelona and Lionel Messi. But Benzema is still fit enough to continue playing. But if there is a better option, Real Madrid will take it. Benzema is still one of the important players in this team. Real Madrid owe him a lot especially in the previous season. I think they will extend with him at least for two more years.

It's stupid if they don't concentrate on the Champions League and maybe even this is an assumption that I can't accept because in any case the Champions League is the highest league for now in Europe especially with their condition that they need more money with their current financial condition. Xavi did the right thing in my opinion. He talked about possibility versus probability.
Was it possible that Barcelona could win the Champions League if they concentrated on the Champions League without having any distractions?
I think, Yes.
But was it probable?
then, no.
So, he made the right decision and concentrated on the La Liga title.
They know that the Champions League is the goal of almost every club so it doesn't make sense if they don't focus on the champions league so they fail.
As for La Liga, it depends on everyone's perspective if you say it's appropriate or not because this is still an assumption and this has to be proven by Barcelona.

And I think that is the very reason why Barcelona did not concentrate on the Champions League.
There is going to be high competition for the Champions League trophy compared to the La Liga title.
So, the La Liga title was more within reach of Barcelona.

last season Barcelona started badly. they pretty much lost points. Xavi's arrival did provide a new atmosphere in the squad. they perform better. last season they missed a chance for a trophy. and I'm sure this season Barcelona doesn't want to lose the trophy.Barca with all the difficulties they have. managed to show the quality of the game is very good. Xavi will be pushing hard for a trophy this season. as proof of good quality.
Barcelona will need to keep up this performance against smaller teams until the next El Clasico in the league. If they do this and defeat Real Madrid in Camp Nou then I think they can really be the champions after a three-season break.
Barcelona are more convincing this season than last season, but we are still the best in El Clasico. Real Madrid won the first volume of El Clasico, but that doesn't guarantee we can win in the second volume later at Camp Nou.Comparing Barcelona's performance with the previous season, it is easy to see that their performance has improved.

For me, the El Clasico match cannot be used as a benchmark for Barcelona or Real Madrid to win the title, because even if they win or lose the El Clasico match, the reality is that Real Madrid and Barcelona will at least get defeats and draws when playing against other teams. It doesn't matter that Real Madrid and Barcelona lose to weaker teams, because sometimes it happens too.
So yes, in this case Real Madrid and Barcelona will continue to compete for the La Liga title, but whether they can win the title or not depends on their consistency and not on El Clasico matches.
Because basically the El Clasico match is just a match with the title of big match and not a decisive match, so because the match is a big match, of course they have very high prestige.
But regarding Barcelona this season it has undergone significant changes even though they are only promising in La Liga, while for competition in Europe the reality is that Barcelona is still not as good as in La Liga.
