Nobody wants to play in the CL
Alaves are already making plans for the 2019/20 campaign and Asier Garitano has been chosen as the man to take the club forward.
Garitano will succeed Abelardo Fernandez on the bench, and all that's missing is the official announcement of his appointment.
Looking at reals 60ish points, they also must havelow confidence next season as well. Hazard+pogba wont change the mentality that much. I expect Barca to win la liga next year as well and hopefully the one after that. 10/13 would be amazing. (greedy i am). It already should have been 9(/11) if it wasnt for our shit performance vs Atm in 2013.
I think we will soon get back to a normal ratio of winning in La Liga, it's outrageous how we turned into Bundesliga/Ligue 1 with Madrid and Atletico in it.
Madrid will panic if things go on the same track, as they could find themselves in the awkward position to be the 2nd best team in Spain historically in terms of Championships.
Well - what is soon? We are in pole position to win the title at least next year and most likely the one after that. I dont believe Real will net spend even close to 500m. It will be something like Hazard 100m, pogba 100m and maybe jovic 70m. And people can call zidane wodoo manager all they like, i really dont rate him to be a good coach to build something from scratch. Next season they will probably go trophyless. And if Zidanes gets fired, then with a new coach, with the pressure, who knows. And its not like its easy to rebuild a team. I dont think its that unlikely that we can win the next 2-3 la ligas.
But we will certainly face our own problems when Messi stops (lets hope he stays for another 4-5 years), and Real Madrid looks to be Mbappes next destination, and from that point on when he has settled, we could get in trouble. But for now - the next three years, we will maintain the dominance in domestic competitions and maybe even in europe.
