Real Madrid and Barcelona are in serious trouble. The La Liga Champions League team is going to be relegated. Is it all Arsenal’s fault?

After the first 8 rounds of La Liga, Real Sociedad appeared in the relegation zone of La Liga, which shocked many fans.

Poor record, meritorious coach resigned

Since the start of the new season, Real Sociedad has only defeated the bottom team Mallorca, with a record of 1 win, 2 draws, 5 losses and 5 points, ranking second from the bottom in La Liga. Real Sociedad's decline began last season. They ranked only 16th in La Liga. They lost to Manchester United in the 1/8 finals of the Europa League. Alguacil, who had coached the team for nearly seven seasons, resigned, and the team continued to decline in the downward range.

Earn 300 million from selling people, and the lineup is still very strong

During Alguacil's coaching, Real Sociedad won the Copa del Rey (2019/20) and a Champions League spot (2022/23 season). In recent years, Real Sociedad has sold stars such as Odegaard, Lenormand, Isaac, Merino, and Suvimendi, earning nearly 300 million euros. However, Real Sociedad still has Blaise Mendes, Oyarzabal, Takei Kubo and other famous players in the team. The team is worth 253 million euros (6th in La Liga), so it will not fall into the relegation zone.

Real Sociedad has fallen, is Arsenal responsible?

In the Alguacil era, Real Sociedad had repeatedly caused trouble for Real Madrid and Barcelona. Now, they need to divert their energy from competing for European championships and face the pressure of relegation battles. Arsenal appear to be largely responsible for Real Sociedad's dive into the relegation zone, with Arteta having poached three stars from the Basque side in recent years.
