I’m also worried about Barcelona's current performance against Monaco,  I don’t think Barcelona will be able to beat some teams in La Liga this season, Barcelona brought another new coach and we are seeing the team performance from the pre-season when the coach is using Lamasia players to win games and that shows that the problem of Barcelona is not from the coach, some players are in Barcelona squad that needs to be benched for some matches or sell some of them and use the La Masia players to make a good squad for the club, from yesterday game against Monaco you will believe that Barcelona problem is from the players, not the coach.

I have been saying it before the team sacked Xavi that the problem is from the players but some Barcelona fans did not believe it and started accusing the manager any time the team lost a game, let be honest Barcelona needs to sell some of their players that are not good and with the kind of performance I saw with Barcelona yesterday they can’t compete against Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid because these teams are full of good attacking players.

Barcelona played well against AS Monaco, look at the statistics, it says it all. They were just unlucky because they couldn't score a goal, after all this was just a friendly match that had no objective and was just a trial and error test for Barcelona. The league match will definitely be different, after all the odds in Barcelona's match against Valencia are very unequal, Barcelona gets @1,72 while Valencia gets @4,7. With that odds comparison, there is no doubt that Barcelona will get their first 3 points at Mestalla.

What to worry about? La Liga is available with 38 matches and if Barcelona starts with a bad result against Valencia, it doesn't mean everything is over. You need to know the difference between La Liga and preseason which when playing against Monaco was wrapped in the trophy that Laporta made. So I won't worry about Barcelona first match, because they can definitely play better regardless of people who doubt the club's condition. The La Liga journey is long and tiring, sometimes the team is on fire and sometimes the team is sluggish. All conditions will be experienced by all teams, not only Barcelona but also Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Girona etc. 

When this transfer took place Mbappe no longer attracts so much attention, instead they often start writing about how clubs from Saudi Arabia want to buy Vinicius, and perhaps this attracts so much attention because he has a clause of $1billion in his contract, but they are ready to pay it, and if it is true that they offered Vinicius a contract for €350m per year, this is a huge amount of money, it is hard to believe that a footballer can earn such money in one year. Maybe this is not true information, but I see that many different publications wrote about it today.

Mbappe recruitment is no longer a big surprise, because this rumor has been going on for quite a long time since last season, Mbappe could have gone to Madrid if he did not accept PSG offer. In fact everyone knows that Mbappe is closer to Madrid than any other club. It's just that what is special is when the official announcement completes the puzzle piece that has been missing for so long. Before it was made official, there was so much drama that we witnessed on social media about Mbappe and Real Madrid. Not a few were initially disappointed when Mbappe failed to be brought in last season. But what is much more interesting about Mbappe arrival in Madrid is the free cost. Imagine Madrid only needs a little time to be patient because any star player finds it difficult to refuse an offer from a luxury club like Real Madrid. Even if there are any, we can count them on our fingers.

If we have to talk about the most successful team in La Liga during the transfer market, I don't think Barcelona can be included among the teams that were able to sign the players they want to strengthen their performance, If I am not mistaken, Barcelona had only signed Olmo since the transfer market was open, and Barcelona is unable to register him due to La Liga rules. On the other hand Atletico Madrid has been the top club that has spent a lot of money to get more players to improve their performance and Real Madrid hasn't spent anything in the transfer market because they already had the players they needed for next season.


Of course, no one expected PSG to release Mbappe to another club as a free agent, Mbappe is the club's highest-paid player, so everyone was shocked that PSG lost him for free, despite the fact that he signed a new contract last season. Mbappe did the right thing by terminating his contract with PSG since Real Madrid would not spend such amounts to sign a single player, it was also for his own good because Mbappe was eager to join Real Madrid, and if he did not terminate his contract, he would not have been able to join his dream club.

Definitely, I think Ancelotti will play him in the European Super Cup. Mbappe is on the list of players brought to Warsawa. Madrid will face Antalanta. If you look at the condition of the team and the statistics, I think Madrid is still too strong for Atalanta. Madrid can always win in the last 2 matches in the 2021. Ancelotti also want Mbappe to immediately get his first trophy with Madrid by winning this match.

Yes, PSG definitely really lost Mbappe because of course Mbappe is a key player at PSG, but yes, in this case, Real Madrid is very lucky to be able to get Mbappe for free from PSG and of course there are lots of football players who want to play at Real Madrid because Real Madrid it is indeed a popular and good club. Yes, Real Madrid also experienced periods where their players did not live up to expectations even though the players' prices were high. but it seems like now Real Madrid has really learned from its experience and finally Real Madrid is really great at being a strong team and having a strong squad. and indeed in this transfer market Real Madrid has been really successful, of course this will make their squad even stronger and what is certain is that Real Madrid wants to win the title again in Laliga and UCL.

Yes, of course there are certainly many clubs that can buy expensive players, but in this case Real Madrid is luckier and Real Madrid's technique is really good at attracting the players they want to buy.

It's true that Atletico Madrid spent a lot of money in the transfer market this time and Atletico Madrid improved their team well, but yes, Barcelona has bad financial problems. But the most important thing is that now Barcelona has tried its best to improve the quality of its team and we'll see in the match they will have in Laliga and of course we'll see the techniques and formations created by Hansi Flick.

In my opinion, what happened in this game was the following: before this game, the Barcelona coach was playing with certain players and only had 3 or 4 regular players, but in the game against Monaco he put more regular players, who had not played for a long time, which made the team perform very poorly. This defeat is a bad sign. Barcelona lost João Cancelo, who is an excellent defender but could also help in midfield and attack.

Barcelona's coach did not play a friendly match in which all his good players played, so the good results that Barcelona obtained in the friendlies do not reflect Barcelona's strength. In my opinion, Barcelona, ​​with all its good players, is much worse than those players who played in the friendly.


The Barcelona coach played with players who do not usually play regularly, such as: Pau Víctor who scored 2 goals in the friendly against Real Madrid and scored a goal in the game against Manchester City. There is also the case of Pablo Torre who scored a goal in the game against Milan. If Barcelona had played with their best regular players, they would have lost against Real Madrid, Manchester City and Milan in those friendly matches.

I'm sure Barcelona's performance will definitely be very different when the new season starts. The reason is that in pre-season matches and also in the match against Monaco, Barcelona's performance is very difficult to predict well. The reason is, in pre-season matches Barcelona was actually able to beat big teams like Manchester City and Real Madrid. So what is certain is that we don't really know what Barcelona's current performance is like. But what is certain is that in next season's match against Valencia, I am very optimistic that Barcelona will definitely win the match. Because I'm sure Valencia's performance won't be too surprising this season. Because in the previous season Valencia's performance was not very good. Apart from that, even in this season's transfer window, Valencia did not bring in too many new players. So you can be sure that Valencia's performance will definitely remain the same as in the previous season. So with these facts, I am very confident that Barcelona can definitely beat Valencia in the opening Laliga match this season.

The reason is, even though Barcelona looks weak when facing Monaco, this is normal because Barcelona will certainly not be too serious about fielding their players in pre-season matches and also in the Juan Gamper Cup final against Monaco. Because this will of course be more risky and also endanger the players they have. That's why in these matches Barcelona sometimes wins even though they are against strong teams and sometimes loses even though their opponents are mediocre. The reason is, the players are not under pressure to always win in pre-season matches or the match against Monaco. So Barcelona just made this match to test the suitability of the players and also to come up with a new strategy.

This is the problem when your squad is full of youngsters. Their inexperience makes their performance inconsistent in the game. And we cannot seriously expect them to enter the team and play like 8+ year veterans. People should even hold back their expectations for a youngster squad of Barcelona. The loss against Monaco is giving us great lessons. It will either make or break them.

Eventhough the loss against Monaco doesn't bother me. However, we were so bad going forward. We had no control in midfield and poor defense against Monaco's low block and counter attack. It's also telling what Barcelona's squad is going to witness in the league. I hope they learn from this game.

Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have no problems regarding their transfers and the players will be used to strengthen their teams this season but not for Barcelona's current situation even though they officially brought in Dani Olmo but they are still not free from their financial problems Barca's current situation is quite complicated on the one hand they need players to help Barcelona in the tight competition in La Liga but on the other hand they have to solve their problems so they can register Dani Olmo, actually not only Dani Olmo previously Barcelona also could not register their players such as Vitor Roque, Inigo Martinez, Clement Lenglet, and Eric Garcia the Barcelona president must find a solution before the La Liga season starts.

It was a surprise to the entire football world that Mbappe joined Real Madrid from PSG without a transfer fee. Every football club wants to buy good strikers and defenders in the squad during the transfer window. A striker of such high profile who has left his old club without a transfer fee I would say is an incredible achievement for Real Madrid. Moreover, before Mbappé joined Real Madrid, they were very good and even won several trophies last season. But since Mbappe joined their squad has become much more stronger even their attacking division has become much stronger.  

Mbappe has yet to feature in a match for Real, but we have seen him training for Real Madrid. Maybe Real Madrid coach Ancelotti will field Mbappe in the next match to play in the starting eleven.

Joan Gamper trophy indeed only exibition match before Laliga begin and Barcelona did that for years which usually Barcelona choose and invite the particular clubs as their opponents and in the last 12 years Barcelona was unbeated in that event but unfortunately today they have lost even with big scores from Monaco which from quality of squad Barcelona much better so this lost means a lot for the fans

About the match against Valencia indeed some of fans are worried about Barcelona conditions but i am sure Hansi Flick have already to evaluate this result and learn from his mistakes and regardless the match against Monaco actually Barcelona pre season tour is run well because they can win from Real Madrid and Manchester City and about their first match against Valencia i am sure Barcelona can win

Yes, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid can be said to have been successful in the transfer market this time, but of course the luckiest one is Real Madrid because they were able to bring in Mbappe for free because Mbappe's contract with PSG has finished and of course Real Madrid is very lucky to get this star player. . and yes, Atletico Madrid is also very lucky to be able to get Julian Alvarez, of course this will definitely make Atletico Madrid's strength potentially even better in the coming season and indeed Barcelona successful in getting Dani Olmo, but yes, it is very unfortunate that this situation happened because Barcelona's finances are currently not good, but yes, I hope that Barcelona can quickly resolve everything well and hopefully its financial condition will quickly recover and recover.

However, it is very unfortunate that Barcelona failed to bring in Nico Williams to play for Barcelona because if Nico could defend Barcelona, ​​of course this would make Barcelona's strength better. but yes, now Barcelona is fortunately still able to get Dani Olmo, of course I also think he is very good.

Yes, in 3 days the Laliga match will start, of course everyone has been longing for the Laliga match to start and of course all clubs must be ready for that match.

With the La liga opener in a few days, many are worried about the current state of Barcelona. After losing 0-3 to Monaco in their own home, everyone is doubting how the team will play against Valencia this saturday.

Their coach acknowledged that they did not play well and even the players themselves made some errors but he assured fans that the team will play differently in Valencia. The team is probably not at its best right now fitness wise.

This win against Barcelona might be a big part of the discussions of Monaco and Faye, with the principality very much interested in the 20 year old.

Real Madrid signing of Mbappe from PSG was big surprise. Many top players want to join Real Madrid because of their reputation and influence. Although Madrid has made some expensive mistakes in past they did great job this time. Having strong team is not easy even with a lot of money. Barcelona and Atletico are also trying to improve their teams but Atletico is spending most money this transfer window. Barcelona ca not afford to buy all players their coach wants because of financial problems. Having good team does not guarantee success as we saw with Girona last season. Strong team is important but it is not the only factor.

After previously receiving a lot of criticism because Barcelona made a very unreasonable offer to get Olmo from Leipzig, now they have really succeeded in getting him. Honestly, I was surprised by Barcelona's success in getting Olmo because they are in a financial crisis. This is really beyond my expectations. Will Barca get Nico Williams at the close of the transfer window? There are rumors that Nico Williams is interested in joining Barca because there he will have Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo who are his compatriots in Spain. I think this is a very big temptation for Nico Williams because there is a possibility that Yamal will try to invite Williams to play together at Barca.

Mbappe is one of the best stars in the world right now, but the player from PSG joined Real Madrid as a free agent. On the one hand, it is a very profitable deal for Real Madrid, on the other hand, it is very harmful for PSG. Mbappe has successfully attended Real Madrid's training camp and is now just waiting for his opening match in a Real Madrid jersey. This season, Real Madrid have arranged their team in such a way that they have not left a single point of weakness in any position of the team. Last season several of their players were out with long-term injuries but this time every player has recovered from injury and will be back again next season.  Compared to last season, Real Madrid's XI will be stronger next season. Last season Real Madrid was an average team and they won all kinds of tournament titles with this average team and the next season may not be an exception.

They have no choice actually, they can't just ignore every player just because they are down financially, though  they shouldn't spend too much but not getting players will not be a good idea  because of fans , once the club is not doing anything to get better they loose more fans , fans don't care about financial problem they need improvement from the club. The reconstruction made the whole financial stuff much more worsen even though there're some major causes too but it's done already they just need to face it find solution, though getting players might not be a proper solution but it still contribute if those players could archive something at the end of the day.
