The results of this week's match at Laliga have made a number of teams lock in their rankings such as Real madrid, Atletico madrid and Sociedad securing their ranking in the top 4 this season. and for Villarreal and Betis they have already locked in places for next season's Europa League. Only the places of the European conference league participants are still up for grabs for the rest of the season because the points earned from the 7th to 11th ranked teams are so close that there is still a possibility to secure 7th place in the 1 remaining matches for them this season.
At the bottom of the Elche and Espanyol standings are the two teams that down caste into league 2 or the Segunda Division next season. Valladolid still has hope of staying in Laliga next season if they are able to win the last game because their points are quite close to the teams above them.

Really, as things have happened in the League, it was logical that they would happen, for me there is no surprise, it was known that Barcelona was going to win the League, Real Madrid concentrated so much on the UCL that what they did was all wrong They did not win La Liga and they allowed themselves to be eliminated by a City that did not see what was going to happen, however, that is football, Atlético de Madrid and Real Sociedad were the teams that I saw best standing, I did not see any other option, but for that My there are no surprises, it's fine how everything developed, that's why when they are in the UCL the true level will be seen, I hope that Barcelona manages to pass the UCL well and not fall back into the Europa League where they did not achieve anything .
I think, as long as Xavi is still the coach of Barcelona, then it looks like Barcelona doesn't have a big chance to win the Champions League trophy. After all, in the last two seasons, in the end, Barcelona could not qualify for the last 16 in the Champions League, and Barcelona then only played in the Europa League, but Barcelona still failed. So yes, I personally feel that Xavi cannot make better developments, but if only to dominate La Liga, then Xavi still has good ability to keep Barcelona good only in La Liga.
Barcelona's success in winning the La Liga title this season has made Xavi Hernandez's position still safe as a coach, after Barcelona failed in the Champions League group stage and were eliminated in the Europa League playoffs. No doubt with Barcelona has very poor performance in Champion League last two season, not qualify in group stage after difficult winning against Inter and Bayern made Barcelona failed to 16th round and bad achievement for the first participants have failed with group stage. Next season I don't sure with Barcelona can't compete in Champion League, has good capital as La Liga winner not guarantee Barcelona have chance for qualifying at group stage exactly when drawing have bigger teams face.
Winning a title in the domestic league never guarantees that a team can succeed in the Champions League or the European League, at least teams like Bayern Munich, for example, who dominate the Bundesliga, cannot guarantee good results in the Champions League. Therefore, because Xavi cannot make Barcelona have the same good performance and results, it will certainly make it difficult for Barcelona to return to promise in the Champions League. But yeah, we don't know what will happen in the future and maybe Xavi can build a better team, who knows.

What was Spanish football this season? It was such a strange campaign for the country that I can’t really put a finger on it. FC Barcelona won the league dominantly but could not even get out of their Champions League group, and Real Madrid struggled in the league but managed to reach the Champions League semi-finals. Sevilla and Atlético Madrid both were essentially mid-table to relegation candidate clubs during the first half of the season only to completely turn it around after January. There is so little separating teams because of their completely opposing forms across periods of time and competitions. Let’s try and split them anyway.
