BTW, Has the prediction pool kicked off already ? It was supposed to start last night, IIRC.

Sure thing, it was set automatically to start with this game week. It is only 7 of us unfortunately, but we shall see if there is some extraordinary tipster among us. Good luck to all participants.

Just noticed the pool and it's surprising to see team like Barcelona is not ahead. Barcelona does not have the past glory then had anymore? I understand they are heavily depends on Messi but there are other good players as well who can win match for them.

Barcelona always loses like 2-3 matches at most during the whole season, however, this year they have started with the wrong foot it seems, 1 loss already and they are losing 0-1 right now in the match against Osasuna.

Barcelona would meet Osasuna today. I heard the Barca team traveled without Messi and Valverde don't want to take the risk upon Messi. However, Griezmann, Suarez, Dembele will be on the pitch and I expect Barca would make an easy win over Osasuna

Aren't Suarez and Dembele injured as well? Only Griezmann available to start from first choice attackers in Barca tonight.

Of course, they are all out injured.
quoted below is the team's squad for the match

Quote from: https://www.fcbarcelona.com/en/news/1329145/preview-osasuna-v-fc-barcelona#

The squad
Ter Stegen, N. Semedo, Piqué, I. Rakitic, Sergio, Arthur, Rafinha, Lenglet, M. Wague, Griezmann, Jordi Alba, S. Roberto, F. De Jong, Vidal, Umtiti, Iñaki Peña, C. Pérez and Ansu Fati.

Todibo and Aleñá have been left out and Suárez, Messi, O. Dembélé, Neto and Junior are all injured.

Actually I think Dembele is the reason Neymar won’t return to Barca - simply because nobody wants Dembele... Wink

From what I read PSG were interested only in Dembele from Barca offer, but the player didn't want to go to PSG. So it is more like Dembele doesn't want to go away. But who knows what is actually happening in those negotiations. We can only speculate from the bloated stories media feed us.

With Messi's current age, it's just a matter of time before he decides to retire from the game and i think Barcelona were wise enough to think of the team Post Messi era and that's why they are re-signing Neymar and have brought in younger talents like Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele to ensure the future of their team.

As for Ousmane Dembele, that kid is a loss for Barca. He will be loaned out a couple of times, and then he will leave after Barca realize he is just a liability

Too much too soon for the guy. He's too young to be playing for a mega club imo. From BVB he could've moved to the EPL and get more experience.

Watch Pulisic (another former BVB currently at Chelsea). He'll develop into a better player and be shipped to one of the Spanish mega clubs.

Neymar messed up somewhere somehow. I don't even see him as Ballon D'or material. He is like one of those people who were so brilliant and had a very promising future when they were young, but then they let the limelight and fame distort there focus.

I also don't like his character sometimes on and off pitch. I mean the move to PSG was even never supposed to happen. If he wanted to become Messi's heir at Barcelona, he was just supposed to stay, learn from him then in a few years he would be the main man...but nah, Ney choose fame and money.

As for Ousmane Dembele, that kid is a loss for Barca. He will be loaned out a couple of times, and then he will leave after Barca realize he is just a liability

He doesn't seem actually serious to me in all honesty, Even when he moved to France, Mbaape has shown himself to be a more disciplined and matured player than Neymar and look at Mbaape age, when either Messi or Ronaldo retires, I think the likes of Hazard and Mbaape are going to dominate.

Real Madrid has to triumph against Villarreal on Monday. Zidan's team was disturbed by Vallodolid on the last matchday. But to win La Liga consistency is very important and Zidane wants to focus on Laliga this season. Hazard could make his debut against Villarreal and I think the team needs him the most.

Well, with last night's results it looks like there is only one team left capable of getting a perfect start to the season with 9 points is the one some people are counting on to break the Real/Barca dominance.

I'm Barca all the way but if we're too lax, that's exactly what's going to happen. Osasuna here we come.

Sevilla vs Celta is live right now on 11'.
I am placing a bet for Sevilla to score the first goal in the match.
The have put strong pressure to Celta and they have made already 4 shots on target.

Not watching the match but after seeing your post just checked the score. It's still 0 - 0 after 33 minutes. Statistics is saying Sevilla is dominating the match. Is it the same in the filed? Sevilla was one of the CL team last season if I am not wrong.

They were playing well during the match.
Finally they scored the first goal in the match (a little bit late) but still I managed to win my bet. However, they didn't manage to win the match as Celta scored a goal before the end of the match, finishing to a 1-1.

It's just like Bale/James only that they are a little older. They could add value to a team but no body is interested in them right now

Having a great skill with poor attitude won't get you anywhere, this has been mentioned many times, not only in football.

Quote from: drwhobox on August 30, 2019, 03:41:41 PM

Without Messi it's very hard for them to dominate the season. Barca did not have a good start but I think they will be the La Liga champion this year too.

Not if Real can get better. Last year they suck so bad so that Barca don't have to be at their best to win the league.

It will be interesting if they compete until the last match just like City and Liverpool last year.

He is still young. I guess a number of clubs would of course want to buy him but his price tag and probably salary requirements make him not a good choice.

There is some good thoughts of journalist Rafa Hernandez, you can read it here:
https://m.facebook.com/RafaelH117/photos/a.453565078149004/1221218844716953/?type=3
The main problem with him is attitude. Dembele is behaving like a worse version of Neymar and ne there is no signs that he is going to change. Sad to see such talent being wasted.

Barcelona for me. I like them because of Messi.

Without Messi it's very hard for them to dominate the season. Barca did not have a good start but I think they will be the La Liga champion this year too.

League update:
Sevilla vs Celta Vigo: Drew
Both goals were scored after 80 minutes. Within 5 minutes Celta Vigo equalized and killed the dream for Sevilla to get whole three points.

Lol, this actually made me laugh hard, I think you say this because dembele + cash has been included in almost all the offers PSG have been getting from Barcelona.
I honestly am starting to doubt some of the ridiculous offers that are over the internet this days, I think some of them are simply outrageous and Neymar to me, isn't worth any of that stress.

Dembele came into the team with a lot of promise, but rightfully he hasn't replicated the form Barcelona expected of him when they splashed out the money they did to acquire him, I think some of the blame will have to go to valverde, I do not think he has managed the kid pretty well, he is young and has a future ahead of him, whether in Barcelona or not.

This is the place to discuss all things connected to La Liga (Spanish League)

This is new Prediction thread for La Liga. Old one has grown quite big and OP is not active for about a year so it was decided it is time for fresh thread.
There will be a new poll up and running soon and I have created a Superbru prediction pool to make things a bit more interesting, also you now have a option to declare your undying love for the favorite club.

Favorite Club

If you would like to declare for some club, put up your favorite club with short info at the bottom of your post and I'll include it here. This way we know who we can make fun of when their favorite team looses the derby.

Working list - will pretty it up after few weeks when there is more of us:

Trofo - occasional Barcelona supporter but mainly likes to see good match with lots of goals
LTU_btc - hardcore Barca fan. Visca Catalunya! Visca Barca!
JeromeTash - Real Madrid is my team
Harkorede - I'm rooting for Barcelona
tokeweed - Real... Just cos I like Hazard

Superbru Prediction Pool

Superbru is a great site for predicting match results. It covers all the main leagues and has became a standard for paying bitcointalk pools (you can still join Champions League one here).

Since I have started with this thread a bit late I selected 30.08. as day for the La Liga pool to start. Meaning our little tipster competition will start from Gameweek 3 which starts on 30.08.19. Two weeks should be enough time for all interested parties to see the pool and join the fun. This is a free pool and there isn't any rewards unless some sponsor comes along. If somebody would like to sponsor our pool feel free to pm me.

Details to join:

I think Barcelona will continue to dominate the Spanish league this year, with the arrival of Griezmann making Barcelona stronger and playing more attractive. Moreover, the front trio of Suarez Messi plus Griezmann is very deadly. Real Madrid will find it difficult to compete this season, I'm sure of that.

I think Barcelona and Athletico Madrid will dominate the top board and compete fiercely, because the two clubs at the pre-season game was amazing. What's more when athletico managed to hook one of the young stars from Portugal, Jo Felix, by showing a fantastic game.

I do not think so, There are really clubs that will compete strongly this season, Despite the strong performance of Athletic and Barcelona last year, Nowadays there are clubs that can stop the dominance of Barcelona and Atletico Wink
