This new LA liga season promises to be exciting we had already seen an upset with athletico Bilbao beating the LA liga champions and Real Madrid despite the red card still one there match. Still it's going to be a two horse race as always

I would not rule Atletico Madrid out, since both Barcelona and Real Madrid still look unconvincing.

Did anyone watch Levante vs Villarreal match ? I didn't see game but going by the flashscore.com informations, I'm wondering how on earth were Levante handed 3 penalties in just the 2nd half alone, of which they were able to convert 2 of them to secure 3 points.

Gareth Bale and James Rodriguez were almost wasted from Real Madrid's squad. However, these players are now starting to be taken into account by coach Zinedine Zidane.
Bale was finally played by Zidane, when Madrid defeated Celta Vigo 3-1 in the first week of the 2019/2020 Spanish League last week.

Bale's performance against Celta Vigo was quite satisfying for Zidane. The Frenchman admitted he was happy with Bale, who was diligent in attacking and defending in the match.

The Bale situation at Real is a weird one, he’s done so much for that club but doesn’t get the respect I feel he deserves.
He’s not going to leave though is he, he’s on massive wages there that nobody else will match. Both parties are just going to have to make it work.

Unfortunately in most cases that how ungrateful Real Madrid can be at times, supporters inclusive.

I remember even one of the greatest Critstiano Ronaldo got criticized at some points just because of his attitude(you how emotional CR7 can be, when he is not happy he does not hide it)
So he would then get criticized for being arrogant etc.

Many Legends whom you would feel would retire at Real Madrid have thus ended going elsewhere where they feel they are appreciated and i feel that's one of the major reason went to Juventus.

Yeah right! Bale looks incredible again, going by the last game against Celta Vigo, He could play pivotal role for Real Madrid if they're to succeed this season.
I hope Barcelona can get themselves together before the first El Çlassico.

If indeed Zidane is to give Gareth Bale a chance this season, which I doubt he will, he will have to keep replicating the form he showed against Celta. Even if Zidanes first stint as reals coach, there were matches bale showed purpose, one being in the UCL final against Liverpool, but all this didn't succeed in winning him over in the heart of the manager, let's see how it goes this time around.

Barca would definitely bounce back from their loss, I think the battle for the Spanish title this season would be one to the most intriguing, with Barca,madrid and athletico all gunning for the trophy.

Bale has always shown himself to be a great player whenever he is not being plagued by injuries but for some odd reason, Zidane has never been a fan though he is by far way better than most of the players at Real Madrid. It's unfortunate that didn't let him leave to China when the move was almost complete, It would be a great injustice if he is relagated to the bench once again this season.

If I am not mistaken, Bale didn't want to move on China. Real was ready to sell him and even the huge salary that he was going to earn in the Chinese League, he refused a transfer there as he wanted to keep playing in the European football.

Earlier rumors related to Bale to the Chinese league almost occurred. Because the process is slow and the Chinese league has closed the transfer season which makes Bale not go there.

Bale became one of the players offered by Real Madrid officials to PSG in exchange with Neymar, but that was rejected by PSG.

So, now Bale will remain in Real Madrid and hopefully he will continue to play well and not disappoint Zidane.

Bale is a top class player and he should be playing regularly for Real Madrid, if given the chance he can help Real Madrid win the league title and Champions League too. However it’s an open secret that Zidane treated him badly during this transfer window, hence it’ll be interesting to see if Bale gets regular game time. Barcelona will need Messi to fire them up on Sunday, as reports indicate he’ll be fit for the clash against Real Betis.

Barcelona looks as lame as possible without Messi on the pitch and with Valverde on the bench. The club doesn't have ideas for this season, except focusing on Leo or buying Neymar.

The front four, even the front five (counting Dembele) could be the best that the football has ever seen in the matter of talent and the moment of careers of all players. Rijkaard's Barca had R10, Leo, Eto'o and Henry but each player was in the different moment of its career. The team that Barca could have would be composed of five players that are near to their prime. Maybe expect Suarez who's 32-year-old.

And all of that talent will be probably managed by Valverde, one of the biggest disgraces in the club's history. What an irony.

Didn't watch last Real match so I will not comment on Bale performance but I have a feeling that Real fans are grabbing at the straws. This was one game and only game Real played well in the long time. Same goes for Bale. Let's see how he will look in the next few games before we start to praise him.

Praising somebody for one of his matches is not really wrong imo. You can say that X is good when he played on his last match but played really terrible 2 matches before. I don't think you can give appreciation if only a player can perform well continuously like a machine.

In the other news, Atletico Madrid withdrew complaint against Barcelona over Griezman transfer. It was silly one, thankfully they realised that.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/premier-league/atl%C3%A9tico-madrid-withdraw-complaint-against-barcelona-over-griezmann-transfer-report/ar-AAG1wb4

"Atlético Madrid has quietly withdrawn their complaint lodged in front of La Liga against Barcelona over the Antoine Griezmann transfer, according to Diario SPORT. The capital club had alleged that Barça owed them money after the blaugrana paid Griezmann’s 120 million release clause. Atléti alleged that Barcelona had already agreed the deal before the release clause was lowered from 200 million to 120 million. Because of this, Barcelona would owe 80 million, according to their logic."

This would be the only positive news going on for the club right now, Messi, Suarez and Dembele are all out injured, The club's bid for Neymar just got rejected by PSG few hours ago, can things get any worse ?
During the pre-season Real Madrid seemed to be the club in crisis, but the tide obviously has changed and Barcelona are the one in a disaster. Sigh!

And it looks like Bale's gonna be a starter under Zidane this season.

Can't wait for Hazard to get back from injury with him at the left and Bale at the right! Nom nom nom. Grin

We endured so many scenarios about selling him to another club at this transfer window and now we saw him in the starting line up.
It would be the best choice for the team if Zidane starts Bale and Hazard on the wings.But I think that he won't do that as this will indicate a fully attacking team.

I think that the reason why Atletico has not been picked is based on their performance of the initial games.Against Getafe they did play very well but out of the goal occassions they had,they only managed to score one goal.You cannot win the league with these statistics.

Actually, you can, consistency is what counts. We saw that in 2013/14 when they won the league for the first time and also when Leicester won the EPL in 2015/16. Scratching out important points and having a very solid defence, and of course you need the variety in one excellent attacking player to finish the chances which they do create.

But that's the way Diego's Atletico Madrid has been for quite sometime. Their strength has been their defense, and they would win with 1 goal margins. Points are what really matter to them and i think this kind of thing will continue at least according to Diego's philosophy.

Even with such kinds of performance, they have been able to try to challenge of the league title and have also been very powerful in Europe in the past 5-6 years so i wouldn't write off Atletico Madrid just yet.

Bale in the inaugural match of the Spanish league was impressive. He contributed a lot to the match, especially when providing assists to Benzema who scored the opening goal.
With his brilliant performance in the match, Zidane made sure Gareth Bale survived at Real Madrid.

This year started well for Real Madrid as they won against a losing game that Barcelona made a false step.

In this league usually the ones that start with the right foot they continue to do well but we have to see how it will go.
I believe Real Madrid will be the favourite to win the league this year.

Well, I agree Real Madrid started with a noticeable performance but consistency is very essential to win LaLiga. Pre-season was a really bad experience for them but this win will surely boost the players. And Barcelona lost the match against Bilbao when their key player Messi wasn't in the squad. Because with Messi Barcelona looks a totally different team. All I can say is, Laliga 19/20 season gonna be very exciting and competitive.

My vote would go for Real Madrid always. No matter Ronaldo leave or Zidane.
