Good ideas from OP have make discussion topic about La Liga, I have favorite team there Real Madrid with current on the top position place although have the same points with Girona. Last night Madrid won against Atletico Madrid on Supercopa and lead to final phase waiting the winner between Barcelona or Osasuna.
La Liga will break until 21 January and Real Madrid have several important match before facing Almeria on matchday 20, after defeating Atletico Madrid on Super copa both team will face each other on Copa del Rey round 16 and will be crucial for Atletico Madrid revenge their loss before on Supercopa.
Well, with the things I have seen in the League, I am a fan of Real Madrid, and now the great team that is rising above Barcelona is Girona, for now they are surprising me a lot, now the things that are seen in The League are very impressive, I see Barcelona as one of the teams that needs to pay attention the most, especially Xavi because he is one of the coaches who have him on the hook to get him out, and he has done everything he has asked for, I don't know what things they have to do so they can win, they have a Lewa who wow is a great player, and now I don't know what options they have to increase his desire to play, the last I knew is that Xavi was demanding Lewa to play more, but why him? why not everyone? Is Barcelona just Lewa?
For me, the player who does it best is Lewa, the others must play for him, and provide him with the passes and everything so that he can score the goals, something like what Pep Guardiola did with Messi in his Tiki-taka time, Of course this is if they want to get out of the hole where they are.
