I still think that too many people underestimate Napoli this season. The bad results they had during the first few weeks of the season were compared to what they did last season and then some here drew the conclusion that Napoli is on a bad way and won't perform well this season. But a lot of people forget that not many things have changed for Napoli except for one defender who left them and a change in the coaching position as Spalletti left the club. The rest still remained the same. There is no point in saying that they are significantly less competitive. And AC Milan looked very strong due to the strong early phase they had, but this result is definitely realistic as they both are top teams.
The main problem is that after watching Napoli's great dominance last season, the expectations of the fans from Napoli this season are very high. Last season in Serie A we only saw the dominance of Napoli. No other team has come close to Napoli in the title race. However, Napoli's performance has been very weak since the beginning of this season. They are not doing well. And I would say we are getting the expected results from Napoli this season. We are used to seeing this kind of performance from Napoli every season, except last season. I would say that even though Napoli had a great performance last season, we shouldn't expect a title-winning performance from Napoli this season. Inter Milan, AC Milan and Juventus are much stronger than Napoli this season. I don't think I agree with you here because what you call very weak is what I would at least call average or they are doing ok and no more or no less than that. Last season they were outstanding from everything and everyone when you look at the first half of the season. It may have been the all-time record, but I don't know. The two seasons before they finished with 77 points and 79 points, which I think are solid results. It is not extraordinary, but solid and puts them into the top 4. The 77 points made them finish the season as 5th rank, but with 79 points they would have finished top 4 for over a decade now. I think they still have a lot of room to improve, but I would not call it very weak. |

Even though they are strong candidates in the European League, it look like Sevilla also hopes to appear in the Champions League, Sevilla is trying to get point to qualify from the group stage.
Your think Lens can't win a few match but in reality Lens are much better than Sevilla and they maximize their draw rather than defeat if we looks at the chance it look like Sevilla look a little difficult because Sevilla is already 3 point behind Lens and in the next matches Sevilla will face each other against Arsenal at the Emirates stadium I thinks Arsenal will win it against and Sevilla chances of qualifying will become increasingly difficult and it is possible that Sevilla will compete again in the UEFA European League.
I feel like Sevilla is programmed for Europa league, are they on purpose to finish in 3rd position?  PSV is really like a shit here, they're win streaks in their local league but they can't even win in Champions league. But Arsenal's recent match was lose, so Arsenal isn't that strong to be honest. Though I believe they will able to enter the quarter final regardless the result in group stages. I mean it wouldn't really shock me if they aim at that, not like they are going to do much in UCL anyway if they go up, so if they end up being third, that would mean they could win the whole europa cup, and that would be a lot better for them. Plus this is a better way, because in europa cup you are not getting all that much money like UCL, but when you go to UCL group stages and finish third, that means not only you are getting more money that way, you will also be able to win the europa and can get some reputation as well. There is a reason why it's called Sevilla Cup by some people, they are the ones that won it the most and even on their worst years they still have a chance to end up getting it against better teams. And against someone is claiming that Sevilla players would aim at losing in the Champions League to participate in the Europa League. I can't believe it and I really want to understand how this idea is processed in the brain. Don't get me wrong, but I just can't understand why someone believes that Sevilla wants to lose in order to participate in a way inferior competition "for reputation" reasons. lol But I have another idea, I believe that Sevilla wants to get relegated into Segunda Division this year because that way they have to celebrate something next year when they win the Segunda Division and get promoted again. It would also strengthen their reputation. Now I am waiting for the person posting that "Sevilla lost that game on purpose because they knew it was the only way to finish 3rd in the group" when Sevilla loses the next game... |

Atletico fans will certainly be very happy to hear this news, because new news has been revealed saying that negotiations on a new agreement to extend coach Diego Simione's contract are almost complete. We know that Diego Simione has been at Atletico for more than a decade and until now his position has never been replaced by any coach. Atletico certainly believes in Diego Simione's performance to date and therefore they want to keep their flagship coach around for longer. During his tenure as Atletico coach, Diego Simione has presented various titles and of course he wants to continue to present other titles in the future, especially the Champions League which he has not yet achieved at all with Atletico. Source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1720140481508630704I thought sometimes that Atletico could need a new coach because they played worse and with less passion than they used to play, but maybe I made my judgment too early and there is still a way back for Atletico to compete for the title. It is looking good for them this season and I thought that Atletico and also Simeone would wait a bit longer this season to then make a final decision whether to continue working together or not. But maybe the club wants to send the signal right now to motivate everyone and to make clear that they have big goals with Simeone in the future. |

You are right, these situation when it becomes public without your consent can of course happen. The lottery in some countries is a good example because for some time they required their players to consent to becoming publicly known or announced when they are the jackpot winners. There are still some lottery formats that work that way. And this reminds me of problems that occurred with the Italian mafia. Google "lottery win, mafia, Italy" and it's really frightening how these people may have been hunted down for their winnings. In one case there was a group in an Italian village announced as winners in public and they really had to hide from there on. It is unknown whether they were hunted down.
I had no idea the Italian Mafia used the resources and man power to hunt down lottery winners in their own villages and cities, which is frightening. If lottery operators are aware of those problems in their societies, then they should completely give the option to their winners so they can claim their jackpots anonimously. One can understand that the lottery, as a company, wants the public to know they are legitimate and they indeed pay to their big winners, but FORCING their winners to risk their physical integrity for money is simply utter selfishness and stupidity. There could even be some link between the Italian Mafia and the lottery operators to carry out those crimes against winners, but I don't have any proof of such corruption, neither would dare to try to write much about it, for my own personal security, mafias and crime syndicates are not to be underestimated.  You understand how it works and I agree that there is a high possibility for this to be true and it would also explain why the lottery would make it a requirement (or did so in the past) for winners to come out in public. Because if they didn't get mentioned publicly, how would the mafia know who won the money? That would allow for the only conclusion that someone from the lottery operation is giving out names secretly. Having a lot of money is amazing and solves so many problems, but it changes life in a different way and I think people who go from no money to millions in a short period of time often underestimate the true consequences of that. People who have been rich for a long time learned and know what to do, whom to trust and how to behave in certain situations. |

Yes this war can change some thinks, not related to the football itself but yes it can change one thing we alredy talk about in this thread, and that think is how USA allows the people to enter his country to see the World CUp, this can make much worse or difficult to get a visa for muslim countries.
One of the problems when the World Cup will be held in the US is that it is difficult to get a visa there. I think there will be policies that will ease access to watch the World Cup live. FIFA will also definitely find a solution to this, because one of the things that will make the World Cup lively is the presence of many people watching from abroad. If access to it is still difficult then don't be surprised when the next World Cup will not be as lively as usual. The designated country must also be more able to adjust, because this is a party that everyone is always waiting for. It is going to be as lively as usual. If there is one country in the world that can plan a safe World Cup with reasonable visa policies, it is the United States. In terms of the fans who come from abroad and want to go into the stadiums, those have to apply quite long in advance and I am sure thorough safety checks will be conducted during the application phase and then additional safety checks will follow without anyone knowing. And for those who want to be in the U.S. while the games take place just for pleasure or to experience the atmosphere without going into a stadium, I think it is the same process as usual. If people want to go there these days, some nationalities need a visa and some don't and that is going to be the same. |

This is not a question that is as easily answered as you just did because it should start with the definition of what a successful gambler is.
When someone gambles for 5 years and spends $100 per day gambling, that would make a total of $182,500 in cost. Now assume that he wins one huge jackpot of $2 million on one day within those 5 years. Is the person a successful gambler? What if that person had no strategy at all but someone with a strategy does not hit the jackpot in 5 years and only wins $100,000 in total, ending up with a loss?
I don't buy the idea that successful gamblers should be seen as gambling addicts because a whole lot of successful gamblers are people who are very strategic with their gambling activities instead of constant gambling which is the primary attributes of gambling addicts Addicted gamblers are even unlikely to become successful through gambling because of the fact that they mostly gamble because of the they ain't mentally strong to do other things apart from gambling. They engage in it without being careful of how and when to gamble. Yes but did you get the point of the example I provided? When do you think is a gambler successful? And addicted gamblers can also be lucky and have some least amount of control over their activities and stay in profit. This debate has the problem that we differentiate between successful and unsuccessful gamblers without saying who is who. If a gambler strategically wins 300 out of 500 rounds, ending up with a profit is compared to a gambler who loses 499 out of 500 rounds but cracks the jackpot and is with millions in profit whereas the steady winner is slightly in profit, who is more successful? |

A gambling addict knows no boundaries. Meanwhile, a successful gambler knows his limitations and follows it so things won't go wrong. Overspending and allotting so much time just to bet and play without proper direction in mind and assessment of the risks are most commonly done by gambling addicts. They do not really care much about the repercussions and rather continue to play and bet as much as they like. They disregard thinking about the trajectory of their gameplays and just continuously chase winnings after winnings or losses. And that's a whole lot different to those people who have plans and strategies to be successful.
Successful gamblers know when to stop and when to quit. Taking a break is never a sign of defeat. Sometimes you just really have to reflect on the things that you did - what went wrong or how you can do better, so that the next time around, you'll be achieving what you want.
Basically, in some way successful gamblers are quite the opposite of what gambling addicts are. Successful gamblers mostly strategize and limits their bets to minimize loses and maximizing odds for it to be on their favor which is the reason as to why they are successful on their gambling endeavors. But just as successful gamblers are, gambling addicts can also be as responsible as successful gambler however they lack the strategy to maximize their profit and continue gambling even with continuous loses. This is not a question that is as easily answered as you just did because it should start with the definition of what a successful gambler is. When someone gambles for 5 years and spends $100 per day gambling, that would make a total of $182,500 in cost. Now assume that he wins one huge jackpot of $2 million on one day within those 5 years. Is the person a successful gambler? What if that person had no strategy at all but someone with a strategy does not hit the jackpot in 5 years and only wins $100,000 in total, ending up with a loss? |

I think there's a crossover between gambling and drug addiction but many things are really different too
with drugs the person usually has a good experience
with gambling the experience could be good or bad, but even with bad experiences the addicted gambler keep hooked to it and craving for more.
I think it is quite literally the same. When gambling, the person does feel a "high" when winning. If the gambler only experiences losses, it is very unlikely they would come back. That's why casinos design their games so that you win some times, and lose some times (with more losing), so that your brain gets the dopamine release of the wins. That's the hook. Similarly, drugs like alcohol produce a "high" while you keep sipping your beer. That's why you need to keep drinking as it's the increase of alcohol that makes you feel good. the point is: when gambling you can get the high of winnings but you also get the "downs" of losing sometimes losing can make you want to gamble again so you win with drugs there's usually no instant "down", down comes later (as a hangover let's say) I suspect they act on slightly different pathways in the brain but we'd have to investigate more to be sure definitely and interesting subject. Very interesting subject, but I think there is one major difference that goes a bit missing here and that is the influence of substances that have an unavoidable effect on hormonal balances in the body and specifically in the brain. Depending on the drugs you take, but especially chemical substances fuck the brain from all directions. Gambling is indeed slightly different in that you don't manipulate your hormonal balance through exogenous chemical shocks. You still have lots of excess cortisol when you lose or also are highly excited when winning, but it is still a different mechanism as no substance collides with the natural synthesis of hormones. |

Hey everyone
I'm not going to create a thread just for this and don't want to become off topic, mas this is huge news
FIFA has just announced that Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 World Cup after Australia withdrew its bid
Big news but not really so surprising? The FIFA only cares about one thing and that is money. Saudi Arabia has the money and we will probably see some more major sport events being hosted by countries like Saudi Arabia in the near future. Not the biggest fan of this evolution but seems unavoidable. We just hosted a World Cup in Qatar and now we have another one confirmed in Saudi Arabia? Money!!!! a lot of money involved, that's a million dollar answer  But, I'm a little more optimistic about this result, because unlike Qatar, Saudi Arabia is investing a lot of money in football, they don't just have the ambition of bringing a big event to gain the world's attention, I want to believe that they They are really betting on the growth of football and that they will hold a grand and beautiful event, without as many scandals as the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. The reasoning behind the decision to give it to Saudi Arabia is a bit different than you just portrayed it here. Yes money is involved and I think everyone knows this by now as it is confirmed that bribery was also at work for the World Cup 2022 being given to Qatar. But if I understand this policy correctly, there is some requirement for circulation of the World Cup among continents and 2026 and 2030 is hosted by North America / South America / Canada and northwest Africa and Europe, respectively. That is why potential applications for 2024 were geographically limited ans since Australia now pulled back, Saudi Arabia was the only candidate with an application. |

I believe some people can really underestimate the power addictions have over the will power of people, that "solution" about simply letting addicted people to run out of money does not make any sense, otherwise addiction to gambling would not be a social problem anywhere and people would rehabilitate themselves as soon as they see their wallet completely empty, because their actions.
In reality, when a seriously addicted individual realizes he does not have any money of his own left, resorts on adquiring debts, stealing, commiting fraud... We have even seen some news here in the forum of someone who was willing to kidnap their own family member for money to keep up gambling.
That vision of the world and how addictions work is very idealistic. I would wish it worked that way, this planet would have less evil.
That will be a bigger problem than just the gambling addiction problem that we usually find because if that is what a gambling addict does, he will get problems that he never imagined because of his gambling addiction. He really had to cure himself of his gambling addiction so he wouldn't experience bigger problems. However, the problem of gambling addiction has become a more serious problem, especially amid modern technology like the one we now enjoy, where someone who often gambles becomes someone who enjoys gambling and becomes a gambling addict without realizing it. That is why we must be able to control ourselves and limit ourselves from gambling because once we are addicted to gambling, it will take a long time, which we don't know for sure, to cure gambling addiction. Getting addicted is not "always" bad, if you can get addicted to something good. I had a friend in my friend group that we all joked how he was addicted to gym, he felt horrible if he didn't went to the gym even for just a single day and he kept doing stuff at home before bed just in case, like he has to work out every single day. That is actually good for your body to a point, obviously even that would be very bad for you if you do not know what you are doing, but if you are just doing enough, nothing insane like lifting 200kg or something like those body builders do, then a decent level of fitness should keep you healthy instead. So if you want to replace one addiction with another, you can find less harmful one, or even a helpful one. This is a very complaisant interpretation of the word addiction and whether it is physical exercise, alcohol or gambling, there is never something good about doing too much of anything, and as soon as positive effects stop outweighing the negative consequences, the word addiction obtains meaningfulness. If someone exaggerates in a gym, there are also negative consequences that may not be felt immediately, like wear and tear of the joints or increasing fatigue. But this is not to go into too much detail here, I just want to say that the word addiction describes the pivotal point where something you do will at some point result in a net negative. |

The Bernabeu home team is showing that their financial resources are very strong. Real Madrid plans to retain key players before the winter transfer window opens. The plan is clear: they want to keep all their best players on long-term contracts. It can be seen that choosing to extend the contract is the right decision for Rodrygo because, with the plan that Real is building, his development opportunities and future will undoubtedly be very bright. But if Real Madrid gets Mbappé's signature, it could be bad news for him.
Real Madrid they will continue to be new contracts for Federico Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga, and Eder Militao.
I don't think it would be a blow to Rodrygo if Madrid finally got Mbappe. he can play a little more laterally and push Mbappe more forward. Madrid made a good decision with Rodrygo's contract extension. Currently, he is the main choice in the team. and of course, he is still young and his potential is quite big. If there is an interested club, maybe Madrid can get big profits. but maybe Rodrygo will be very comfortable in Madrid. even when he competes with other players. I think when they let Rodrygo play it is also more a problem of a lack in alternatives. His speed is quite good and that is something that Joselu lacks I believe, but correct me if I am wrong here. But by Real Madrid standards Rodrygo has to improve as a striker. A club like Real Madrid can't afford a striker that scores every now and then or in his case only every six or seven games. I think if that problem remains and he can't become more effective, his place in the team could also be at risk soon. |

Manchester United is a good team but they are not in good form right now. If you search for Manchester United in the English Premier League, you will find Manchester United fail in the English Premier League, if you search for Manchester United in the Champions League, you will find Manchester United fail in the Champions League. It is natural to lower expectations of a team that fails in every area. Galatasaray Manchester United is a strong enough team but I can't give any guarantee for Manchester United that Manchester United will do well against Galatasaray. Galatasaray is one of the best teams in the Turkish league, so you can be sure that Manchester United's match against them will not be easy at all.
since the bad situation that Man United experienced, most fans and some people have found it more difficult to believe that Man United will be able to compete with Galatasaray, even though they dont look very strong, Galatasaray is able to put very strong pressure on Man United and there may be a little confusion here who has the right to qualify, but I would not expect Man United to qualify, but I just want to see MU maximize its performance to be able to compete competitively in UCL matches. moreover, currently, for me, MU has started to improve little in the EPL, its just that their consistency still a little weak and we should still give Ten Hag the opportunity to give a better effort than this. MU must win against Galatasaray to help Ten Hag's chair shake less and win the first points in the Champions League. Galatasaray is a very classy opponent. Galatasaray is in high form, with an unbeaten streak in all matches. Statistics also show that MU did not play too prominently in the clash with Galatasaray. MU with home field advantage, will definitely not be able to play defense. If both teams score, the possibility of the match at Old Trafford exceeding the 2-goal mark is very high. I hope victory will be on MU's side. But this is what I am not so sure about when you say that Manchester United should win to save Ten Hag, but what if the team doesn't want to save Ten Hag. I think that most of the players would really not care or complain when Ten Hag is not there anymore tomorrow. But for them as a team it is still important to win that game against Galatasaray because every soccer player wants to play the Champions League in a season for as long as it is possible. But in my opinion Manchester United will drop out in the group stage and also not qualify for it next year as they will miss that chance in the Premier League. |

That is what I thought initially when I first saw this topic, by the way.
Even if those people are close enough to be considered "best friends", one still would never know the whole context of the story behind someone quitting hanging out with their best friends.
For example, let us assume you had a very good night at the casino with your best friends and you happened to hit a jackpot, using your own money, in a blink of an eye now you are worth several hundreds of thousands of Dollars (at the very least). How would you feel if next time you hang out with your friends, they start to treat you differently and expect you to pay for their drinks, their food and their wager to gamble since they know exactly how much you have now in your bank account? Anyone would feel uncomfortable having people around who knows that kind of information about you, even if they are family members.
So before judging one side as the bad one of the story, let us put ourselves in the shoe of them.
Their was huge difference between the friends and best friend,because the best friend will know all our financial struggles.So once we win the game,they never ask to do favour using that money.So if you share the winnings to the close friend will not affect you at point.But sharing to the friends will make you to some financial needs by your friends and ask to do favour to their needs.Most probably they will ask you to give loan,because the loan from the friends doesn’t need to pay the interest till the repayment date.The friends always depends on you to pay for all their needs and demands.When you go to the hotel,they demand you to pay the full money. Not sure if this can be considered a general rule, but first of all I don't know whether I would feel inclined to share big winnings at all, but that doesn't only count for winnings in gambling, it could also be inheritance or very high income from a well paid job. The truth is that money attracts people. But I think most people know that it is never smart to go bragging about your 10 million dollars lottery win. It jut can't be smart for so many reasons the same way it wouldn't be smart to let the world know that you are sitting on a huge bag full of Bitcoin. It should remain a personal matter for your own safety. What if he was with his friends when he hit that jackpot in the casino? What if he was with his friends when they together decided to compare their lottery numbers to those which were being announced as the winning ones on Television? Perhaps, there was no way we could hide it from his friends, because as it was stated in the beginning of this thread, their were gambling friends, so that means they likely shared their losses and wins because gambled next to each other. If so, what was he supposed to do since the beginning his former friends knew how much money he had earned? Perhaps the only option for him, since he could to lie about how much he had, was to distance himself from his former partners, for his own security and peace of mind, it is something many of us would have done, unfortunately, security and self preservation are priorities. You are right, these situation when it becomes public without your consent can of course happen. The lottery in some countries is a good example because for some time they required their players to consent to becoming publicly known or announced when they are the jackpot winners. There are still some lottery formats that work that way. And this reminds me of problems that occurred with the Italian mafia. Google "lottery win, mafia, Italy" and it's really frightening how these people may have been hunted down for their winnings. In one case there was a group in an Italian village announced as winners in public and they really had to hide from there on. It is unknown whether they were hunted down. |

Gambling is banned in some countries and concealing money won through it can be considered as money laundering. But in countries where gambling is not banned, it can not be considered as illegal activity.
It is believed that some laundered money are sent to gambling site inorder to conceal it from its origin, but this is not what this thread is about.
I think this topic is more complex than it looks at first glance, because gambling itself can take place in many different forms. Online, offline in a casino or privately hosted events, which are very often deemed illegal. But I would say that there are probably more sophisticated ways to launder money than doing it with gambling as it doesn't fully solve the question of origin. If out of a sudden there is a million in the bank account, saying that the money comes from a lucky night in a casino may not be enough. There is most likely some plausibility check depending on the amounts of money that someone is turning over in a casino. The point thereto is that gambling is part of the focal points where suspicion is raised about money laundering if there is a huge unusual inflow of money in a gambling account especially where such account is not known with such huge winning in the past. It is just like such suspicion is raised with btc for being used to conceal money that was meant for other purpose. It is unfortunate this seem to be raising those kinds of issues because money laundering is a crime and whatever means possible, it is checked. Definitely, and it is also a huge point of contention in general when it taxation comes into play. Many different rulings in different states and I am sure it will never be acknowledged as this perfectly legal income source. When someone says that the Ferarri in the garage or the villa is paid with money from gambling, what is the chance that special requests by the IRS will be sent out and a deep investigation take place? It is most likely going to happen that way. I guess the only ones getting away with "I am rich because of gambling" are those who win these official tournaments at poker and so on, events that are publicly streamed. But other than that money from gambling usually entails the need for explanation. |

Todd Boehly, Chelsea's new owner, intends to continue pressing the club to become more competitive and sufficiently powerful to compete against any elite oppositions when the fixtures comes easy.
But what Todd Boehly did didn't work and he really hasn't been able to bring about changes for Chelsea to be able to develop and compete in the Premier League. It seems that Todd Boehly is not the right person to take full control of Chelsea. Even several former coaches and quite a lot of football observers say that the current Todd Boehly era is the worst era for Chelsea in football history. Todd Boehly just needs to look in the mirror and see how his policies last season and the current season cannot have a bigger impact. But instead demanding Chelsea to be more competitive, they are very ignorant. What can he demand at a club with the current players? The purchasing policy should not be careless, spending the largest amount of money on low quality players. What else can we do? Todd Boehly shouldn't demand something that Chelsea can't fulfill this season. It's better to just fix the squad as best as possible and not demand anything more than that. Indeed, a club as big as Chelsea has a heavy burden to bear, but it must be proportional to what the squad has. I wonder how much Todd Boehly understands about soccer. He comes from baseball and basketball and I haven't looked up how successful his franchises are, but it is also not clear to me what kind of strategy he pursues. Does he care about temporary success of his Chelsea team? Or does he know that it only needs two successful seasons with Champions League qualification in order to sell the club at a higher price than he bought it for? I am not sure if he is passionate about the sport or if he is only an investor in his mind who is flexing muscles as a soccer club owner while waiting for an exit. If inflation keeps going like this in the sports world, perhaps he will be able to sell the club at a profit even if they are not performing that well. |

One serious problem is that sacking one coach logically means you need to sign a new coach, but then thinking about this, who could that new coach be? It won't help Manchester United if they sack ten Hag and start some experiment with some unknown or unexperienced new coach. This is so far the only reason I can understand why clubs are careful with sacking their coaches. The market isn't that great. To be honest, if I had to come up with one name of a good coach who is available, I wouldn't know anyone. It would inevitably end in an experiment and that is not what Manchester United needs right now.
@shogun47 while I agree with your points but the sack is coming for him soon because no manager in their right mind benches Varane, starts Maguire and Evans against City. Furthermore all I can see is him create a squad of his favourites and waste the clubs money on player’s he knew and forget attacking football at time’s I’m wondering does he even know the basics of football and for these reasons I won’t be surprised if he gets the sack in coming months. [/quote] Agree, and the problems in the locker room have already started between the players and the coach. It was said that there were hefty discussions in the locker room before the game against Manchester City when the United players found out about ten Hag's plan for the game. Some of them are said to have criticized his strategy. I think those are the first signs when the team is finally falling apart and that is also the time when a coach can't take any more losses without taking the consequences. Losing the players in the locker room has never led to good results in the aftermath. |

Of course you guessed that AC Milan will win it after the first half because they had a 2 goal lead. But for AC Milan this means quite the setback as they have had a great couple of weeks without losing or any draws. Now losing the game against Juventus and giving away the 2 goal lead against Napoli reshapes their overall situation. They looked very solid and now there is quite some damage to that seemingly perfect picture from the last weeks. They are now last in the Champions League group and they lose their games against the strong Serie A teams. Two weeks ago I thought they might be stronger than this.
Of course it was beyond our expectations because AC Milan had a big chance of winning this match if we look at the advantage they had in the first half but unfortunately they were unable to maintain it. Therefore, we think that AC Milan had instability in their performance in the second half and also several players experienced setbacks in their best form, such as Leao and Pulisic, which made them lose in the previous two. I think AC Milan must be more confident in every match because if they are able to take the lead early of course they must be able to maintain that advantage. So, on the standings, Juventus managed to take second place this week and AC Milan is increasingly under pressure at the moment because Napoli can take third place if AC Milan again fails to get full points in the next match. I still think that too many people underestimate Napoli this season. The bad results they had during the first few weeks of the season were compared to what they did last season and then some here drew the conclusion that Napoli is on a bad way and won't perform well this season. But a lot of people forget that not many things have changed for Napoli except for one defender who left them and a change in the coaching position as Spalletti left the club. The rest still remained the same. There is no point in saying that they are significantly less competitive. And AC Milan looked very strong due to the strong early phase they had, but this result is definitely realistic as they both are top teams. |
