No one will know what results Barca and Real Madrid will get even though the difference is very clear because Real Madrid have more complete players but it doesn't provide any guarantees.
We are just too early to discuss this but there is no harm in speculating but if we go too far it would not be good to speculate too high for a club that is only said to be a big club after Mbappe's arrival.
I really understand that Barca, perhaps their current condition is too far from Real Madrid, but to get another title in the Champions League is not an easy task even though the players that Real Madrid have are very complete, but we have also just seen other clubs that can be strong challengers for Real Madrid.
Barcelona, despite the many changes, at least has a chance to control 2nd place in the points table.
2nd place is indeed a big possibility but what must also be remembered is that a team as big as Barcelona should not be targeting that, they have to compete fiercely in the race for the title but this is doubtful just like last season when they did not have the strength to match Real Madrid.
This speculation is very reasonable after seeing the squad depth of both teams and I think it is quite realistic.
Barcelona has a lot of shortcomings when compared to Real Madrid, so we have to wait for a big surprise if Barcelona wants to beat Real Madrid in the title race.
