Even though Real Madrid is still the best in Laliga, so I'm sure that little by little Barcelona will again become the toughest competitor for Real Madrid. It was only a matter of time before Barcelona finally came out of bad financial trouble.
If you look at the La Liga table in the last season, Barcelona finished in 2nd place. It means Barcelona is still the toughest competitor in La Liga. No doubt that Barcelona is always one of the strongest teams in La Liga, Real Madrid cannot underestimate them. Although Barcelona can't get many new players in this transfer window and they are still in a financial problem, doesn't mean Real Madrid will easily defeat them in the next season. We know Xavi is the coach and Barcelona current squad is quite good. They actually can compete for the title in the next season. If they can perform at their best consistently, they must have the chance to win the La Liga title in the next season.
Real Madrid was indeed unstoppable in the race for the Spanish league title last year because at the same time Barcelona and Atletico Madrid appeared to be so inconsistent.moreover Barcelona itself was experiencing an extraordinary financial crisis but they were able to be in second place in the standings.but I very sure in the race for the BBVA league title next season Barcelona will put pressure and even surprise on Real Madrid in the competition for the title without looking down on the strength of Atletico Madrid and Sevilla but we can predict that only Barcelona and Real Madrid will be strong candidates for the title
