I still appreciate Barcelona more than Madrid. Madrid this season proved weaker without striker Benzema. Right now, I don't see anyone who can replace him. Barcelona is showing strength when possessing a comprehensive attacking squad. As we have seen, friendly match between 2 teams. Barcelona easily beat Real Madrid.
This year's championship race will undoubtedly be easy for Barcelona. Real Madrid will have a hard time meeting a big team.
Do you really still take friendly matches seriously to this day? and with that victory immediately concluded that this season in La Liga Barcelona was able to beat Madrid in total and there were no opportunities to consider? objectivity in assessing is something you need to learn. I admit that Madrid is still in a transitional stage, do you know Barcelona transition process when Messi left? they fall and lose consecutively plus messy finances but struggle from the point where Xavi tries little by little? isn't that the process of defining a true transition?
Well, I'm a bit hasty to conclude that I didn't trust the young talents of Real Madrid. But if this transfer season ends, they are satisfied with this squad. I'm sure they will have a hard time against the big teams.
Barcelona's transformation when Messi left, they quickly recruited Lewandowski to fill that void. They cannot rely on young and immature players. Real Madrid will not be satisfied with the current attack. Kylian Mbappé will be the top target to help them conquer the arena. Help them not to appear inferior to big competitors.
