I am sure that Barcelona will beat Girona, the year Girona was good was last year, they are not looking as strong this season and I think Barcelona looks much better this season as well. They are getting more leaner and they are learning to deal with their financial issues, sending away some players.

Real Madrid is the biggest and most successful club in the world and Kylian Mbappe is very much aware of that so you don't expect him to bring whatever sort of arrogance he was exhibiting in Paris Saint Germaine to the club. Real Madrid is bigger than any player in that current squad and can as well do without a any player in the current squad. Kylian Mbappe came to the club to win trophies and I'm very confident that he'll concentrate in giving his best to the club instead of trying to be worshipped and adored by the club management.

They are getting more leaner and they are learning to deal with their financial issues, sending away some players.

I think it's clear that the yare going to get better if they keep this up, so far they won all their games if I remember right and Girona shouldn't be any different, they have a chance to win that game too. I get that we are going to see something changing, I think we are going to see what could be done with what we have, and that should be something we can definitely work with, that's the most important part.

Barcelona are stronger and are performing better than Girona too so they have better chance to beat Girona in coming match. It will be a big test for Girona but they are strong mentally as shown in last season and this season too. Big test is tough but Girona are not fearful and they can go through a big test with good result even the opponent is Barcelona.

Vinicius is a good striker, but his formation took place in Real, when he came to this team he was not famous, but he was able to achieve a high status in Real. In games for the national team, he does not show anything impressive, but in fairness it should be said that the Brazilian national team is currently experiencing a decline, so it seems that he is worse than those players you wrote about. Vinicius is talented in his own way and is very important for Real, I think that his value is precisely in this, he may not have unique dribbling, but he definitely has a sense of goal.

In the 4 matches that have been played by both teams, Barcelona is clearly quite superior because they were able to end the match by winning. While Real Madrid got perfect results because they have not lost but the draw in two matches made their performance less than optimal at the beginning of this season. Of course, these two teams will continue to compete tightly this season because the two teams are always favored to be champions. I am amazed by the Barcelona coach because he can show his expertise in bringing progress to the team.

Even so, I am quite sure that there will be mistakes that they will make this season that could result in losing points. Maybe to see how strong they are, of course we have to see these teams face each other this season, the El Clasico match is always an assessment of how strong they are in maintaining their good performance. On the other hand, Atletico Madrid is also able to maintain its best quality, well, a major overhaul was carried out by Atletico Madrid in the transfer market and we want to see them able to provide interesting competition this season.

Andriy Lunin signs new Real Madrid contract extension until 2028


Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin has signed a new three-year contract with the club.
The Athletic previously reported that the Ukraine international, who had one year left on his contract, was expected to stay at the club during the summer transfer window and was close to agreeing a new deal.

He has now signed a new contract with Madrid that will keep him at the Santiago Bernabeu until 2028.
Madrid and Lunin reached a verbal agreement over a new deal before the end of last season.

However, the 25-year-old had doubts about extending his stay at the Spanish club due to Courtois’ importance and the lack of playing time he might receive as a result.

Lunin joined Madrid from FC Zorya Luhansk in 2018 with a contract until 2024. In 2019, he renewed until 2025 — although the deal was not officially announced by the club.

A very key fact here is that xavi did mad a solid foundation already before he left so most other coaches who may come after him wouldn't have a very tedious job to do expect they jeopardize the foundation instead of consolidating upon it, then they will get Barcelona to another messy state to do a scratch start all over but then Flick doesn't seem to be in that path, he's rather consolidating well upon that which he's leveraging some advantage and has propelled Barcelona to an obvious commendable strat for the season. The reason I will strongly say it's all on xavis foundation is because the financial mess isn't totally cleaned up and improvements are visible and ofcourse that was what xavi did almost all through his stay, if flick where to be there initially, probably it wouldn't have been this easy but then what matters the most is in the progress they are making already so far.

I am sure Xavi would have finished the season better if he hadn't struggled with injuries last year. They had already won the championship the season before. I think Xavi is being treated unfairly. The new manager started the league well but we don't know if he will continue. It is unfair to say that he is better than Xavi with a few games he played. Xavi left him a team that was sitting on the dock but when he took over his own team, Barcelona was in ruins.

The odds seem absolutely correct and very very attractive to me.
I think I want to open a sort of Spanish branch of my betting, in my opinion it can be done well here too.
Furthermore, I think that Real Madrid are really obliged to win otherwise the advantage starts to become very much Barcelona's.

I dont trust so much Girona this season if you ask me, they dont seem in the same mood like in the last year, plus this kind of little teams not make two consecutive seasons at super top level, you can look into every case, and always they strugled so much to maintain the previous level.

But i also think they are gonna remain in the top 10 of the league.

They made big shock in La Liga last season and are doing great performances in early matches this season. It's really hard for Girona to finish this season in top four again but their early matches are very promising. Maybe they won't complete in top four but top six and a ticket to UEFA Europa League next season is a possible target for Girona. They can grow up and increase their competitiveness with time and become a new Sevilla in La Liga.

It is still very early to draw conclusions like that in just four matches because currently Girona itself is not in a worse position than other teams because from the four matches that Girona has played, the team is currently in the top five of the standings and it is very possible that Girona can reach a much better position because there are many matches that have not been played this season. Meanwhile, Barcelona is indeed a good team, even though last season the team did not win a single trophy under Xavi's coaching, but this season Barcelona has shown their ability again to be a title contender in La Liga.

Xavi has coached Barcelona well and has made Barcelona win the title and I am the same as you and to be honest at that time I personally also thought that Xavi's departure would make Barcelona lose its performance but yes now the German coach has proven himself that he can improve Barcelona's performance good and can continue Xavi's struggle well.

Of course, it cannot be denied that Barcelona's start to this season has been very impressive and of course the hope of becoming LaLiga champions this season has great potential for Barcelona. but of course we'll see what happens with Barcelona in the next match and we'll see whether Hansi Flick will be able to make Barcelona consistently win or not, but what is clear is that the hope of Barcelona fans now wants to see Barcelona become champions this season and of course now Hansi Flick certainly must try to make it happen and if Hansi Flick can make Barcelona fans' dreams come true, of course Barcelona fans will be proud to have coach Hansi Flick. Yes, we'll see whether Hansi Flick will be able to win his first trophy in Laliga or not.

But of course I can't wait to see Barcelona's match against Real Madrid and if, for example, Barcelona can win the El Clasico match, of course there is a big possibility that Barcelona will be able to win the title this season, but it is certainly not an easy thing to play against Real Madrid. but unfortunately the match is still a long time away.

Girona can still be said to be a mediocre team but Girona still managed to be in the top five at the start of this season, so of course it is a good result for Girona at the start of this season. But indeed, because in the next match Girona will play against Barcelona, ​​then it will still be a difficult match for Girona, because Barcelona in this moment is also the only team in La Liga that has managed to get four wins.

But indeed, if we consider the head to head results in the last two seasons, then Girona looks better but maybe, with head to head results like that it will be a trigger for Barcelona to beat Girona at this moment.
