To be honest, before the start of this season, I considered Real Madrid as the favorite to win the La Liga title. Madrid played very well last season. We thought that Madrid would be stronger this season after getting Mbappe in the squad. But we are seeing the opposite.

This assumption arose based on last season's success, they have a mature squad and Mbappe arrival can improve Real Madrid quality, especially in the front line. However, what happened was the opposite, one by one Madrid players had to enter the treatment room, this situation made them lose points in several important matches.
Barcelona actually performed impressively with Hansi Flick, Real Madrid was also unable to match the strength of their rivals even though they relied on young players, the defeat in the last El Clasico of the season forced Real Madrid to end the season without a title.

Madrid strengthened their attack by adding Mbappe to the squad. But they probably forgot that they also needed to strengthen their defence. Madrid's defence was strong. But the problem was that Ancelotti didn't have a suitable replacement. That's why we saw a poor performance from Madrid after several defenders suffered injuries at the same time.

Madrid's squad is undoubtedly very strong. And now they need a suitable replacement of players. Madrid have suitable replacements in the midfield and attack. They have talented players like Arda Guller and Endrick. However, this season they need to buy an experienced defender.

We didn't think that Barcelona's performance would change so quickly under Hansi FLick. It was unexpected. Barcelona performed excellently. They managed to secure the La Liga and Copa del Rey titles.
