I see that Atletico Madrid's next game is going to be against Rayo Vallecano and it is a home game. Atletico Madrid have been doing really bad for so many weeks. They even have a losing streak of four games now. Thanks to this, Rayo Vallecano have got past them in the standings by getting more satisfying results. Atletico Madrid have a really hard job to do at this point as Vallecano are a really solid team now. But maybe this could be the end of this bad streak for Atletico Madrid.

this will be a pretty exciting match and I think this is a match that is quite worth watching because apart from fighting for this position it will also make them a bit threatened when they lose.
Athletico's current performance is far from expectations because indeed they are now like a team in pain with their losing streak.
Technically maybe Athletico are still the favorites because they are away and their squad depth is quite good, but I will try to gamble here and will stay by Rayo's side even if they are guests and their squad is just mediocre.

After playing really solid against Sevilla in an away game the last time, Barcelona's next target is going to be Mallorca in another away game. The Barcelona I watched against Sevilla were really encouraging for the future. And they should show their seriousness by this game. Mallorca is not a tough opponent for them. They just need to focus on the game and make the effort they did against Sevilla at least. Then, they can win this.

Atletico Madrid's performance in the last few matches was disappointing.
I've lost a few bets in a row. Atletico Madrid will play a home match against Rayo Vallecano. They are not that strong in the home match. Atletico Madrid collected only 15 in 8 home matches. So, I don't think Atletico will win the home match against Rayo. Rayo will fight for victory. Atletico must play their best to get 3 points.

In recent days, when comparing to A Madrid and R Sociedad ,Barcelona is really performing well and that needs to be on 5th place. Yes I am not aware of how best Barcelona was, but yes the current coach is really giving out his best to the players I suppose. I am sure , if the players follow him then, he is going bring back Barcelona's earlier performances back.

This is an opportunity for Xavi when Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad have had bad things in their game, so behind Barcelona being able to catch up to the top 5 in LaLiga it is very possible for Xavi to reach it slowly but surely.
I understand what you are saying that there must be a long room for Xavi so that he can be free to find talent from these young talent, it is very easy to judge who will be chosen by Xavi who stands out in his game.

As a Barcelona coach who has the tough task of training talented young players who are still not doing well, it is certainly a very difficult task. The long process also definitely makes Xavi have to work harder. At the same time, other players both at Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad also did the same. Here taking advantage of the conditions are quite ideal, because Barcelona will have good potential in the future. Just need to get back on track as they should be in the top 5-4. If only 2 points are enough convincing for Barcelona.

When compared to the performance of Athletico and Sociedad in the last few matches I think of course everyone will agree that Barcelona's game is the most superior because indeed they now look more consistent compared to these two clubs.
but they are still struggling now because some of their strikers are still injured and indeed this makes them deadlocked in attack.
Currently, Ansu Fati and Braithwaite are still unable to appear for the club. with the arrival of Ferran Torres later hopefully they can fill the void left by these injured strikers.

Even though Barcelona is still not good enough but I personally am still a little sure Barcelona will be able to recover better if not in the near future, maybe for the next seasons. Getting the title is not something easy, but with Barcelona able to compete again in the top four then of course it is something good progress as well.

I think with the arrival of Xavi there has been a great change in this team. He is a young and successful name who knows how to play football in Barcelona. One of the things that excites me the most about this team is Xavi and I can see how good the team has potential to be in a few years.
After two or three years, the team will be playing for the championship again

In accordance with what I expected, it's okay if Barcelona is also the dark horse in La Liga. With their current condition, Xavi, with the discipline of teaching the Barcelona players, can be a bright spot and create many good opportunities in the future. If with Sevilla, Barcelona can draw, then I believe beating Mallorca is an opportunity that should not be wasted.

One might want the immediate effect of Xavi's arrival where improving performance and being able to beat any team they face is what they want to see. It's impossible for Xavi and all his players because I think Xavi has to adapt to a team where the quality of the players is no longer above average like a few seasons ago.

We have to wait for the second season or at least when Barcelona bring in some other top players to replace the position left by its main star Lionel Messi this season. Everyone has to be patient for that because Barcelona now is no longer the same as Barcelona a few seasons before.

Not even a world class coach like pep guardiola could make a bold changes in current barcelona mess, it takes years to bring back the old unbeatable barcelona , there is too much missing from this club ... a top player like messi , a great leader like puyol, a maestro like iniesta and xavi himself...

so yeah i think xavi is trying to find a huge potential from the academy and of course it cost a lot, it has a huge risk giving too much space for young talent in a competitive league.

That's football, rare to see a club with long run consistency except for bayern munich which it seems the consistency come from lack of competitor.
Despite the 'not too bad' performance since xavi takeover the barcelona job , it's still not enough for a big ambitious club like barcelona , the fans would not satisfied if their club got 1 lost every 5 matches, it's not acceptable.

xavi stats as barcelona manager so far :

3 W
3 D
2 L

clearly not acceptable but the fact that the situation in barcelona already messed up when he came , that's a good alibi for him luckily.

We are familiar with the performance of Real Sociedad. They were stay in a good position at the beginning of the season, compared to other teams. Gradually their performance began to deteriorate. They continue to descend to the bottom of the points table. However, at the start of this season, they were at the top of the table with consecutive wins. I thought they could be in the top 4 teams in the table. But now it seems that they can not be in the top 6 teams. At the end of the season, maybe they will be in the seventh position.

The interesting part is not to gather 29 points in 18 games by Sociedad, that would have been definitely something that people expected, but they also gathered 29 points in 14 games and then lost 4 in a row. That's the weird part that people were shocked about, same goes for ATM and even more because they are the winners of last season so nobody really expected them to lose 4 in a row. I get that with covid becoming even bigger and things looking like even worse, I would say it is definitely understandable for teams to have bad days but this is valid for other teams as well so 4 loss in a row for a team around the top is something nobody expected.

^ Since the players are not playing well, the coach should have arranged the match strategy in a defensive formation. Then they could at least share the points.

After a good performance from the beginning of the season, losing 4 matches in a row, I would say it is the failure of the coach. If the coach had defensive tactics, they would not have lost at least 4 matches. However, the morale of the players is now weak. It will take a long time for Sociedad to return to form if the coach does not change tactics.

Good for Barcelona though, they are now quite close to 4th spot and champions league once again, just 2 more points, or one win difference and they will be closer to top once again. This wasn't exactly how they planned it, but it still worked out well for them.

Barca are starting to find form with Xavi as their new coach this season. I'm not completely sure that Xavi can't bring any changes to his team because so far I can see that Barca are starting to make things difficult for their opponents in the league. Of course that's good, but the difficulty of scoring goals and winning match is a problem that still exists today.

As much as this paints a good picture for Xavi, Koeman was not a bad coach as far as I know because he came to this club with a well decorated CV.

Koeman is a really good coach his Netherlands national football team was very strong the problem is that he could not influence the team as he needed, the main reason is why he failed to achieve a result.
Xavi is more influencing the team now than Koeman was in his time. If the president of the club doesn't prevent Xavi from doing everything as he wants, then Barça will become great again Wink

Wait, let's evaluate while Xavi is at Barca. Pretty good and little by little can change the course of Barcelona's game. Even though it's not too significant, Xavi seriousness in bringing Barcelona and young players to try even harder already looks good. it's just that in La Liga opponents Barcelona know this El Barca weakness. So Xavi is here to cover the gaps in the gaps that young players have. Small hope, but next season this is still a question mark.

The organizers do not need UEFA approval for the Super League to take place. The courts have already been won and now UEFA will not be able to apply sanctions to clubs and players who will participate in the Super League. This would be a violation of competition and an abuse of monopoly position. So I hope big business will take over European football (namely international club competition) and the corrupt officials from UEFA will have a smaller share of the pie.

I remember this Super League and the reception it had when they tried launch it few months ago. My last update on the case was UEFA not allowed to ban the members to compete in the Champions League. I didn't know there was a court ruling that UEFA couldn't impose other sanctions to pressure teams from joining or rejoining them.

If I'm not mistaken, it was a decision of some Spanish court, but the details are not important here, since the correctness of this approach is obvious: any club can independently decide which tournament to play - it is not a slave to UEFA.
I think the organizers of the Super League do not force events because of the situation with covid - it is not yet clear how long the restrictions will last and even in what form they will be, it would be foolish to start a tournament and then find yourself in a situation where it cannot be continued.

A Madrid and R Sociedad are not performing well now a days. Each lost 4 matches out of 5 matches. If you look at Valencia who is at 8th place, has been really performing well and has own 3 matches and drawn 2 matches in the recent matches which should be looked up on. Valencia has a lot chances to just jump up to 5th or 4th place if they keep the current performance.

Real Sociedad started the season with good performance, I remember they once topped the La Liga standings. But, it seems something is wrong with the Club, they didn't win any of their last 5 matches, and lost their last match to Villarreal despite playing home. While, Atletico Madrid also have been in a bad form lately. However, Valencia performance lately are quite impressive, and they are just 1 point behind Atletico on the standings. If they win their matches consistently, they will secure grab the 5th place from Atletico.

We are familiar with the performance of Real Sociedad. They were stay in a good position at the beginning of the season, compared to other teams. Gradually their performance began to deteriorate. They continue to descend to the bottom of the points table.

However, at the start of this season, they were at the top of the table with consecutive wins. I thought they could be in the top 4 teams in the table. But now it seems that they can not be in the top 6 teams. At the end of the season, maybe they will be in the seventh position.
