Real Sociedad are going to play a home game against Real Betis this weekend. Sociedad are the 5th with 30 points and Betis are the 10th with 23 points. Sociedad won only once in the last 5 games and Betis got 2 wins. Sociedad have had a bad form for weeks and I think it is time for them to pull themselves together. I expect a win for Sociedad here.

And Messi, in my opinion, needs to be treated for nerves. Next time the punishment may be harsher.
The decision to ban him for only next 2 matches is ridiculous imo. It was supposed to be 4 games at least but this one is so soft. We are talking about missing Copa del Ray game vs Cornella, we all know that substitutes play mostly those kinds of games so Messi playing on it wasn't obvious.. The second game will be vs Elche, yeah big deal... Then he can return in Bilbao's game again? I have no comments.

Athletic Bilbao rightfully took the Super Cup for himself. There were more desires than Barcelona. And Messi, in my opinion, needs to be treated for nerves. Next time the punishment may be harsher.

He does know how legendary players will be replaced by younger players. He enjoyed this process when took the position of Ronaldinho more than decade ago.
Messi now is as a tutor for Ansu Fati like Ronaldinho was in the past. I don't believe Ansu Fati has same extraordinary skills like Messi does but 2 stories are similar.
I agree with you. Messi is now do the duty as Ansu Fati's teacher. As was Ronaldinho. Although Ansu Fati is not an extraordinary player like Messi, but he is very talented. I am hopeful that Fati will play well in Messi's absence. Ansu Fati, Pedri and Griezmann will lead the future Barca
Messi is a really good player, and he affects Barcelona's gameplay, but if he wants to go, fans should respect that, he gave and helped Barca a lot, and he still is, fans will get over it just like real madrid fans did when Cristiano Ronaldo left.
Fati is a really young player, there still a lot he needs to experience that would build his persona and help him be confident, it is going to be tough for him, a lot of people start saying that he's the next Messi or something, which puts a lot of pressure on him.

This week is going to start with 3 games tomorrow. One of them is Alaves-Sevilla. Sevilla are doing good compared to Alaves. They lost to Atletico Madrid the last and I think they will want to have a good result here. I don't think Alaves can do much against them. My bet is on Sevilla's win.
Sevilla is a good team and they did a great match againts atleteco but unfortenetly they lost the match...i think the alaves match is a very good oppurtunity for them to recover and get the 3 points
Sevilla played really badly against Atletico Madrid, they just kept the ball with them and couldn't do anything with it, i was watching the game and i made a bet on BTTS, unfortunately they didn't score, but i still agree that Sevilla is a good team they just couldn't go through ATM's defense.

The red card penalized them further.Atletico is well known for the best defense of La Liga this year and when they are playing at home it is really difficult to score against them.It is enough to check their stats to see that probably the btts was not a good idea as a bet.The last goal they conceded was in the year 2020 when they were playing Elche when playing at home.

Ansu Fati is young and can be more threatening than Messi in the future in term of scoring obviously, because overall Messi will remains better. He still needs more training after recovering from the injury. Hopefully he will not be injured like Dembele otherwise...

Indeed I expect Sevilla to win. I read in the news, yesterday tho, about them refusing to sell En-Nesyri to West Ham, since he is a key player (and maybe the offered money was't attractive)

agree, this seems to be it for him
he would still like more than his Barca co-players, and it will be probably see him out of Barca at the end of the season, or a drastic change in the whole team for him to stay, which is a less realistic solution

it is just that I do not see where he could go at this moment, to be in title/trophies chase position for sure
Title/ trophy chase is only one of reasons for Messi to consider leaving or staying in Barcelona. I am thinking about 2 other reasons

1. He does not feel happy in Barcelona: when playing or training, when dealing with the board, and maybe reduced salary.
2. He does know how legendary players will be replaced by younger players. He enjoyed this process when took the position of Ronaldinho more than decade ago.

I can not say what is the biggest reason for Messi to leave the club. Only he knows what it is.

Messi desires to win and he is a ambitious player but the red card shows his time in Barcelona might come to the ending, finally. After burofax, drama, and his efforts to come back and enjoy the time in Barcelona, I think he will leave the club.

The Spanish Super Cup went to the Basque Country with three goals against two goals at the expense of Barcelona in a match that witnessed many fluctuations in terms of the result, but in terms of performance, Bilbao had a clear superiority throughout the match times. Marcelino in a matter of 4 days beaten Real And Barcelona and won his first titles with Bilbao.
While now Barcelona are closing on their second year without a trophy.
I don't get it why do people think Bilbao will go down this season? Is there a news about some mishap or something done by management and point loss will be attributed or something? Right now they are 12th in a league of 20 teams, which is not bad, and even though they are only 5 points ahead of the relegation zone, it is still far away from that zone to talk about them like they will surely go down, not like they are the last team in the league.

I understand that people were shocked about the manner Bilbao won, but they are not a horrible team, they have always been a decent team. I believe "how" they won was really awesome and really interesting, but the fact that they won is not surprising because they have been good in cup games as well most of the time, if you are a team in Spain, league is almost always Madrid or Barcelona so you have to put emphasis on the cups.

What a dramatic finish for the Copa Del Rey final with Barcelona leading 2-1 in the minute 77 and then out of nowhere Bilbao for being told in Spain by the newspaper that they are alongside 3 teams in history of LaLiga that did not relegate ( Real , Barca , Bilbao ) but this season might be that one that might do it.

Then, out of nowhere Bilbao played a so nice football that manage to equalize Barcelona and then take the victory (3-2) and the trophy so massive congrats to them and I hope they will manage to avoid relegation aswell.
A nice comeback, a nice third goal and a trophy. Bilbao deserves it without any doubt.
Now about the red card, it was well deserved for [UFC]Messi. Less than 4 matches ban will be questionable!
The poor guy is being ruined by Barcelona and I guess now it is clear why: Barça managers are trying hard to lower his chances to get a better contract somewhere else. I do not like how they are treating him as he did a lot to his team when they needed it most. Now, that the opposite is happening he is being held an hostage by the blaugrana.
Very sad.
I wouldn't argue about that and wish him good luck somewhere else. Barcelona is no longer attractive for him for many reasons and I respect that but honestly what he did was very aggressive, unprofessional and not justified. He might be suffering psychologically and needs assistance or a rest but slapping and throwing his opponent that way will make him a target for more criticism. He might face a ban up to 12 matches..
Actually, I would second your thoughts. What he did cannot be justified whatever the reasons who moved him were. It was unprofessional and bad towards the poor guy who got blasted, to his team-mates and supporters and so on. I was rather concentrating on the man, who as you said, maybe needs some psychological assistance.

I think what giving by Messi is not enough and good solution way for Barcelona right now, as captain team for Barcelona Lionel Messi should give more contributed and good attitude for other player, but looking what happen on the field during Barcelona left score with other team Messi do not have any fight spirit for giving motivation for other player, better Barcelona looking for new captain not only have long time with Barcelona team but also need captain team give more motivate for team player and have good communication with their team.
Messi contributed a lot and more than enough, if I have to say about him. I am not a fan of Messi but I never underestimate what Messi contributed for Barcelona. He get good salary and titles in return.

The problems are from the all squad, not only Messi, and above is the board of Barcelona. They made mistakes from transfers in many seasons and their squad slowly get weaker. Messi and his team mates get older and their time in the club soon will come to its ending. The red card shows Messi still has good desire to play and win but he is not a guy can change a match like seasons ago.

Today I bet on Levante and Sevilla. In the last match between Levante and Cadiz, Levante won 2-1. Moreover, I have not seen the Cadiz team play well against Levante yet. The match between Alvas and Sevilla seems to be one-sided. The Sevilla team is playing well while the Alaves are at the bottom of the points table.

Athletic Bilbao were like they took the revenge of their league match that Barcelona beat them away. It was really an awesome game for them. I think A. Bilbao totally deserved to win this.

A foul that Messi shouldn't have committed. He can still run in other directions without having to knock the opponent down. He is no longer dribbling, I think Messi's ambition to win and score a goal takes away his concentration, so he commits this unnecessary foul. This result also makes Barcelona's position even more difficult, when Messi really leaves both the transfer window this time and at the end of the contract, Barcelona will experience the same problem. it seems like they don't pay attention to the end of their star players careers with the club.
