2014 La Liga Race

Can Atletico repeat or will the Summer exits prove to be too much to overcome?

Last year Atletico completed the dream league season, but it's been a Summer of change at the top of La Liga. Atletico has been poached to an extent, and Barcelona has brought in plenty of new talent like Luis "The Count" Suarez. Defending European Champions Real Madrid also have had another influx of serious talent with the additions of Toni Kroos, Kaylor Navas and James Rodriguez. While it remains to be seen what will happen with Di Maria and Khedira, it looks to be a two horse race again where Barcelona and Real will battle wire to wire for the League crown.

Your thread is a lot fancier than mine.  Boo!!!

 

I do not follow La Liga as much as other leagues but I loved seeing Atletico beat out the other two, if only for a season.  What are the chances they, or anybody else is competitive through at least the first half?

They'll be competitive for sure. Just don't think they have the horses to stay up top for the long-haul.

Edit: nevermind, now I remember you were the guy all bent out of shape that there were threads for the preseason,premier League and champions league. How's that truck thread working out for you? Nationwide?

Come on Real! Let's win La Liga this season.

Bale looks much improved, Ronaldo is healthy and only 6 goals away from breaking Raul's record, Navas is as good as advertised, Kroos is a passing guru, Di Maria is back with the team, Modric remains underrated, Benzema is shaking off the rust, and Isco is looking sharp.

James, on the other hand, has been such a disappointment and Khedira is being a sulky whimp.

 

People thought Bale was a bum last October too. Give James time to get acclimated to the team.

    • I'll be patiently waiting to see what OL additions we snatch off the waiver wire.
    • Look don't get me wrong here. I'm not arguing it's going to just change his arm talent overnight. I'm just saying doing anything on the physical front after the GM who stuck his neck out for him over the concerns around his physical traits got fired is better than doing nothing. That's another layer. It could easily be argued overall he needed to add at least 10 pounds not just for the sake of working in the pocket and not going down so easily but let's be honest eventually no matter how much we invest in the OL he's going to get hit some and those hits will add up. His frame as it stands is only going to absorb so much over a 17 game season. Oh definitely good or bad we will have to run a lot of under center stuff. Bryce will either look good or flounder. But our offense will remain stagnant if we just keep running shotgun plays 90% of the time. You're telegraphing your offense otherwise. That's why I'm not giving Chuba Hubbard too hard of a time over his YPC last year. We weren't fooling anyone. We'll see what Canales has cooked up. It better be pretty damn clever.
    • Why would a team ever not be aggressive in improving the roster? It may look different from year to year but even the best rosters churn at the bottom. That's a no-brainer.
