Barcelona was broke in 2023 when they won La Liga by 15 points. They were also broke when they won Madrid in the Super Cup and outplayed Madrid and yeah, it was against Ancelotti. It's not about having stars alone, it's about having a balanced squad and quality squad depth. Football is not played on paper.
Like I said, Madrid are favourites for the league next season but don't talk like there's no scenario in which Barcelona wins the league.

Are you trying to say Flick is not a good manager or because he doesn't have the experience of the La Liga when can't win the league? C'mon man. Xavi stayed in Barcelona for 2 seasons and he won the league so Flick staying for 1-2 seasons doesn't mean he can't win the league.

Everybody knows how good Madrid is and we all know what the addition of Mbappe means, but you have to understand that this doesn't mean it is certain that Madrid will win the league and every available trophy next season.

Yes, that's right, everyone forgot what Xavi was able to achieve with Barcelona before last season, and it was unexpected to hear from him that Barcelona won't be able to beat Real if they don't get new players, as if he forgot how he did it before. I think the only reason is that he had a tense relationship with Laporta and he was looking for reasons to break up with him, I’m sure that he loved Barcelona, but when there is a person in the team with whom you are not pleased to communicate, especially since formally he is your boss , then this changes everything, it is impossible to work in such conditions.
