Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[MusaMohamed]

It seems like Chelsea will go for Romelu Lukaku if they fail on signing Erling Haaland this summer. Inter are demanding at least £102.5m to let him go. Romelu Lukaku also would be a really good striker transfer. He got 24 goals and 10 assists in 36 Serie A games in the last season. Yeah, he is much older than Haaland of course but he is more experienced also.

Lukaku played for Chelsea when he was under 20 with the transfer from Anderlecht. After the failure in Chelsea, he played for West Brom and had a few good seasons there. Manchester United bought him but he failed in Old Trafford.

The transfer from Manchester United to Inter Milan revives his career with two impressive seasons in Serie A and one Scudetto. Lukaku is still young and has experience in Premier League. Haaland will have to adapt to Premier League but I don't think he will need to much time for his adaption.

I don't know whether Inter Milan will let him go or not even though with the amount of transfers Romelo Lukaku's brilliance at Inter Milan has made him shine again and this has become the most comfortable team for Lukaku.

If Chelsea re-sign him I'm afraid he failed again in the past at Manchester city he failed to do nothing for his team maybe even tougher than the game he faced in the EPL.

Werner is still lacking for the Chelsea striker while Haaland hopes for but I don't think it will be the same fate as Werner.

[MAAManda]

Haaland will have to adapt to Premier League but I don't think he will need to much time for his adaption.

Many people also said the same thing when Timo Werner's transfer from RB Leipzig to Chelsea took place, but in fact Timo Werner took quite a long time to adapt, it seems that until now he has not fully adapted (IMO)

Hopefully, if Haaland goes to Chelsea, his career won't immediately fade

[Pulsar77]

It is said that Lukaku might leave and go to Chelsea this summer. But I don't think so. He played there before and wasn't good enough. He played at different clubs after it. But he never was as awesome as he is at Inter. He was like he was reborn there. As he is having his best performance at Inter, I hope that he doesn't leave. It wouldn't be a wise choice I suppose.

[mv1986]

Yes that is what I am saying. I don't see a realistic scenario where it makes a whole lot of sense to let Giroud and Zlatan play at the same time. Both are pure center players with similar abilities while Zlatan is a more dangerous striker and Giroud a hard-working team player. Although I would say that Zlatan is also quite the team player. He is just a quicker finisher and doesn't look three or four times to find a player to pass the ball to.

The pairing of Giroud and Ibra will be great unless they are injured. They are old but their fitness is still much better. But at this age, players are more likely to get injured due to minor injuries. If Ibra and Giroud don't have injuries, Milan will be fighting hard for the title this season.

No, as was said before maybe when you are under high pressure and need to score a goal you want them both on the pitch, but from a strategic standpoint letting both start doesn't sound very smart. I mean everyone has their own taste on how to play soccer, but Ibra and Giroud are too similar. You would rather have one of them and an additional dynamic winger who is strong in 1 vs 1, who could then serve the offender.

Inter placed £102.5m on Lukaku, which I think is high. Lukaku left England in 2019, and Chelsea now have see on him. He is an important player in inter, he scored 24 goals last season in Serie A, and 4 in Champion League. However, it will be great, if he get transfers to Chelsea. But, I don't think Chelsea will pay that amount. They also have see on other top players.

[coinlocket$]

Everyone is talking about Giroud - Ibra duo would be really awesome but I'm not so sure about it. First of all, I wonder whether Milan will have two forwards in their tactic. I assume that they will play with one and have one of these players in the subs. And it's not hard to predict who is going to be in the subs, it's Giroud of course. But he can help his team really well sometimes when he gets the chance. Think about it like he did it in critical games. This could be really crucial for them.

It will be not a duo.
Only one between them will play or in others words, Giroud will play when Ibra will be broken  .

At the moment the favorite team for winning the title is still Inter in my opinion.

Firstly, Lukaku began to show his excellent results and rebirth with the direct participation of Conte, and as you know, Conte left the club. Secondly, taking into account the not the best financial condition of Inter recently, it is possible to treat this information with sufficient seriousness. On the other hand, Lukaku himself recently announced that he remains in the team, and just selling a player of this level can completely put an end to the club's tournament ambitions for this season. However, almost everything depends on the amount offered, because there are such sums that both Lukaku himself and the distressed Inter Milan will not be able to refuse

Giroud will only be a substitute I have no doubt about that, but I believe Giroud will make a good contribution to Milan. Especially when Ibrahimovic is
39 years old, he is more prone to injury and doesn't have the stamina to play 90 minutes. So it was the right decision with Milan to bring in Giroud,
and it is hoped that the 2021/2022 season Milan can compete with other top teams in Serie A. Inter is still the strongest candidate to win
the Serie A trophy, but Inter are experiencing some problems such as changing coaches. And also losing Hakimi, next Eriksen was not allowed to
play as long as he was still using a cardiac aid in his body. That should affect Inter's performance, so it's very interesting to monitor Inter's performance
in the 2021/2022 season which is about to start.

I agree I don't think they will play much together and even if it is the case, I am not sure they will be a good duo.
For next season, Inter isn't favourite anymore imo. I don't see a lot of change there, Hakimi is no longer there, hopefully Lukaku is still there although you hear rumours from time to time about him leaving. In the other side, Juve made a lot of mistake in the previous season, players are more used to play with each other, Chiellini seems to renew the contract, Allegri is here again so basically everything is suitable for them to fight for the title or exactly claiming it back!

[blue Snow]

Giroud will only be a substitute I have no doubt about that, but I believe Giroud will make a good contribution to Milan.

I'm not so sure either, when I see him he takes number 9 I immediately doubt. no other player will succeed Using the number 9 exception Pilipo Inzaghi. I remembered Pato, Madsukic, Higuain, and others have failed. If Giroud success out from curse number 9 he will be a legendary player like Inzaghi. But we haven't seen him play yet, I also hope he brings Milan at least for the scudetto next year, which never yet happen since 10 years ago.

Number is not guarantee with Giruoud become starter and get more minutes playing in AC Milan because he has the same position with Zlatan, but if he can shows how great performance and make many goal scoring I think Zlatan will be substitute player for Giroud, lets see and wait what giroud can do for AC Milan in this season can make many fantastic goal or only become substitute player

If  look at his age, then he is successful like Inzaghi is difficult. Regarding curse number 9 actually I don't really care. Because I think it's absolutely the skill of the players and the coach in his performances.
Since playing in the EPL I actually don't really like his game, but if he can survive and bring Milan success then that's great for his age.

The Covid outbreak continues to scare Serie A. In England they have decided that those who have not get a jab will not play, end of story: this is the rule imposed by the Football Association that has set October 1 as the deadline. In Italy there is great tension on the issue: 15 positive cases in Spezia and 6 in Empoli have created new fears. In both teams there are players who have not taken the drug. Empoli President Corsi has decided to interrupt the retreat and allow the players involved to go home to avoid further spreading.
Very complicated story.

Based on the myth in last few season, the player who wore the number 9 jersey at AC Milan after Pippo Inzaghi, could not be at his best. This is just a myth, hopefully it can be broken by Giroud next season. I agree, it's likely that he won't start this season, unless he proves that Milan were not wrong to sign him.

It happens around the world. From Premier League to La Liga and Serie A but I hope that the vaccination will help the world to reduce harmful effects from the pandemic on human health, public health and sport events.

I wish that there will be no more deadly immutation from the current Sars-Cov-2 and the world will have a new normality in the next year.

Giroud cannot play as Super Pippo and he can not score to many goals in Arsenal, Chelsea. I don't think Giroud will score too many goals and join the Capocannoniere competition. I also don't think Giroud will have a position in the squad and his place would be on the bench, when AC Milan need to have substitution.

Giroud is not bad player and he can score important and crazy goals as we see in Arsenal or Chelsea. Club can not rely on Giroud if they need to have a good goal resource during a complete season.

Honestly, I find FA decisions logic and good. Absentees due to covid ruined many games in barely all leagues in the previous season and the pandemic ruined football since most games were without spectators..
I would like to see this imposed by UEFA and to accept 100% vaccinated spectators in the stadium, the Czech way in EURO.

Vaccine is best tool to end the pandemic but the world can not rely on it only. They have to do social distancing until the day here community can be achieved.

If people don't practice social distancing, other mutated viruses can occur like the mutated virus from India. It is a risk to the world and can get rid of all results of vaccination in many nations so far. It is a future that I don't want to be one of witnesses. And I guess you guys don't want to be part of such.

If strong players can be infected, weaker players can be infected and get l worse health conditions.

~snip~ When he first came here, his market value was €48m. But now, we see that it's increased to €70m. This guy is developing really fast. And I liked him really much in the Euro 2020 also. Juventus should absolutely buy him. He has one more year on his loan contract.

You are right he played well at Juventus and EURO. Even his current price makes him the most expensive local player in Serie A. He became Man of the match for 2 times in EURO. In fact, he is still very young 23 years old. But I doubt whether Juve can afford to make it permanent. They are also experiencing financial problems even though their financial report showed a profit during the last season.

I think primer league have final decision giving all stadium can standing for supporter, before match begin FA have got allowing from England Healthy they can begin match with supporter on stadium. But for Serie A still not any good news will match the same like last years without supporter? still waiting what new information getting by FIGC will get space for supporter watching on stadium or not.
