Who will win La Liga this year? Barcelona or Real Madrid?

zico|5136d ago |Blog Post|6|

I think nobody can punish Barcelona this season either, although it`s gonna be a close match with Real Madrid as last year. Maybe it is the El Classico settlements that determines who are the best team.

Both teams have done some changes:

BARCELONA
New players:
David Villa (28 year, attacker) – Valencia – €40mil
Adriano (25 year, defense) – Sevilla – €9.5mil + €4mil
Javier Mascherano (26 year, midfielder) – Liverpool – €22mil

REAL MADRID
New manager: José Mourinho
New players:
Sergio Canales (19 year, midfielder) – Santander – €5mil
Angel Di María (22 year midfielder) – Benfica – €30mil + €6mil
Pedro León (23 year midfielder) – Getafe – €10mil
Sami Khedira (23 year midfielder) – Stuttgart – €12mil
Ricardo Carvalho (32 year defense) – Chelsea – €8mil
Mesut Øzil (21 year midfielder) – Werder Bremen – €12mil + 3mil.

Probably the biggest change for Barcelona is that Zlatan and Henry is gone, replaced with David Villa, I think this is a very good change. The most important change from last year is Mascherano from Liverpool, which is the defensive player Barcelona need to be a complete team.
Real have maybe the best manager/coach in the world, who is the biggest changes from last season. Can he do the same with Real as he did with Porto, Chelsea and Inter? That’s the question we can`t answer now. We have to wait. I think Mourinho can make big changes, but he is depending at the big stars, Ronaldo and Kaka didn`t get out their potential last season, but maybe this is the season?

Barcelona seems to me to have the most completed squad, and they have Messi, properly the best player in the world.

I think Barcelona are winning Primera Division 2010-11 as they did last year.

The story is too old to be commented.

Agree Barca by 10-15 points Real are not a team you cant depend on Ronaldo all the time Barca have like 5 or 6 diffrent match winners in that team plus Mascherano so Xavi and Iniesta can attack even more they must be the favourites

I think Barca will take it, but i hope there will be more than 2 teams fighting.
Maybe Valencia will be up there. But i am shore that one of the managers will loose their job.

Both manager are to "big" to loose their jobs. Mourinho need some time in his new club, but I`m sure he will do something big already this season. I think real will win ether La Liga or Champions league.

barca will be the winner of liga 2010/2011 .
barca is based on its own players- players of la masilla ( valdes- pique - xavi- iniesta- puyol - pedro- messi - busquets- jeffren- jonathan - ) not like real madrid which looses money on buying .
money never makes a big team

Disagree "Everton656" Barca buy players as much as Real do. What about Villa? Mascherano? Henry from Arsenal.......and so on...I can also mention Zlatan last year? about €70 million man from Sweden, and then selling him after only one season...

These players are not "based on its own players".
