With the big changes in Barcelona, do you still believe that Real Madrid is still the best in La Liga?
Because of many people who may be said to have a neutral attitude but after seeing or considering the big changes that Barcelona have made, then a candidate for La Liga title next season will not be a guarantee for Real Madrid. Although Real Madrid had ended the previous season in a great way, but the changes made by Barcelona will clearly undermine Real Madrid's dominance next season.
Real Madrid will still be the best team at start of season and I think they can maintain it till the end of season too. Barcelona have many new players who can increase their strength but it is in theory. New players need time in a new club. Xavi needs time to understand and use them so Barcelona will have their own difficulty in early of season. In a new season, Xavi will have more pressure than in the past one so it can be good or bad for his management too.
Real Madrid don't have so many changes with their squad and players so they will start a new season with a solid foundation from a past one. If they can start a new season well, they will bring more pressure to Barcelona and Xavi.
I am shocked to see Barcelona made many transfers in this summer even they are in doubt and have very unhealthy finance. If they get bad result in a new season, they will have less income and their finance will be on the verge of collapse seriously.
