Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[S A KHAIR]

I think Inter has actually passively assisted them in winning the league title because Inter had a really good advantage over Milan and they just could not hold it. They lost crucial matches at crucial times and that certainly caused a lot of problems. But I have to say at the end of the season Milan traded reliable and obviously was the better team.

Actually it is understandable why Inter's appearance this season has decreased slightly compared to the previous season, besides Inter lost two star
players namely Achraf Hakimi and Romelu Lukaku. Because the previous season Antonio Conte was the coach of Inter, we know for ourselves how
Conte's track record as a coach is very good. While this season Inter have Simone Inzaghi as coach, and we know Inzaghi is not an experienced coach,
so it's only natural that Inzaghi needs time to get Inter back to winning the Serie A trophy. But so far Inzaghi's debut as Inter coach is not so bad,
at least Inter can compete with AC Milan until the end of the season. Hopefully Inzaghi can learn a lot from Inter's failures this season, and Inzaghi
can make Inter play even better next season.

I won't blame the coach ( inzaghi) for their failure to win, because he did well, he was the favourite to win the Italian league from week 1 to the end of season,is just that AC Milan maintain consistency for majority of the season and are very lucky not to lose key players to injuries, inter Milan will do better next season under inzaghi,we just have to give the young coach more time and stop comparing him to Antonio Conte,is like comparing father and son and saying who have experienced more.

@BuNga_cute, Yes, I think you are right because with the chances that they had to go ahead and win the league title this season I think there should have done better. I actually think there to kit a little easier and lost important points in some matches that they really shouldn't have. And they left to tell the tale for it

@borovichok, I think the main problem that Inter had to face this season was the consistency. They were not consistent enough and losing crucial points that important times did not help them at all. If I remember correctly I think they lost a few matches which they really should not have and if they had when those matches they could have gone past Milan very easily.

[Furious 7]

This season Milan were very lucky, just look at the whole scenario: there was the covid situation, game stoppages, infections and on the way back the teams became very inconsistent, napoli and inter and atalata and juventus became very inconsistent teams. but next season things will be different, that is, it will be more competitive and i read that real madrid wants to buy rafael leão, but i am not seeing any news from milan being interested in a new striker to replace ibrahimovic who will no longer be that one player to contribute a lot to the team in the near future, I would even say that he should think about retiring

In this case, Inter, Juventus and Atalanta have experienced setbacks in the current season and even Atalanta is arguably the worst in my opinion because they have experienced inconsistencies at the wrong time. in contrast to Juventus who have more finances they managed to get through the crisis by bringing in several players such as Dusan and Zakaria who made their performance slowly start to rise but it was quite difficult to do that so when they experienced inconsistency they couldn't do much more there

[alpamar99]

in this case i see inter actually as one bad thing. they were given a few chances but in the end when they were at the top they couldn't secure anything and just kept wasting their chances. even if I'm not mistaken they even had a 5 to 6 point lead over Milan there but what happened was that they flowered again and again the chances

Actually it is understandable why Inter's appearance this season has decreased slightly compared to the previous season, besides Inter lost two star
players namely Achraf Hakimi and Romelu Lukaku. Because the previous season Antonio Conte was the coach of Inter, we know for ourselves how
Conte's track record as a coach is very good. While this season Inter have Simone Inzaghi as coach, and we know Inzaghi is not an experienced coach,

at least Inter can compete with AC Milan until the end of the season. Hopefully Inzaghi can learn a lot from Inter's failures this season, and Inzaghi
can make Inter play even better next season.

Well, maybe this can be understood a little but indeed to lose a striker I think they can handle it because there are indeed some good strikers there and even they have a very good goal ratio this season but indeed they sometimes can't win with a good goal ratio that.
They have to forget this season and make next season better. Inzaghi is still pretty good for now but if next season he still fails I'm not sure what to keep from him

[Iranus]

When it comes to Napoli's performance during this season, I must admit that they did a quite good job for some time. I even started to think that they were one of the biggest candidates to win the league title. But all of a sudden, their performance level started to drop down very sharply and they started to get very poor results. They gave up very early I mean. Even if they don't become the champion team, I would expect a bigger competition from them at least. But we never know how strong they will come back next season.

Yes, I also remember that they played really well in the first quarter of the season but they have lost their way since and never really recovered. I also thought they had a very good chance of doing something great this season but at that time Juventus came back in form and they had a lot better competition.

If they could have held on to their position from that time I think they had a chance of finishing a lot higher compared to what they have done. I hope they will do better in the next season but I also believe that it will be way harder.

[Distraction]

It looks like Milan's championship has made most people here happy. But I understand the reason why too. They weren't able to win the league title for so many years that this was their biggest chance to make it in the recent years. They didn't make a mistake after leading the standings most of the time recently. Sassuolo weren't a big hindrance for them to get over. Milan's general performance was still similar to Inter's of course as there was only a difference of two points. But Milan were having a much better time lately.

The season was not easy for Milan, and it was not easy for them to compete on equal terms with Inter, but they managed to do it. This is what makes their victory worthwhile. Many matches have been won on the character with minimal advantage. I would say that there is a certain amount of luck in this championship, but as they say, - the strongest are lucky, so everything is natural.

What makes them root for is because everyone likes to see a change. That's what makes a league competitive. Another reason to add is that AC Milan were the underdogs and not much favourites to win couple of gameweeks before the end of the season and they won against some tough opponents compared to Napoli and Inter and on top of that they had to win every match to win the Serie A. It was a tough fight for AC Milan and they deserved it.

[MinoRaiola]

AC Milan and Ibrahimovic have the title! And now comes Ibra with his injury. He had massive problems. For the last six months he had pain in his left knee. Half a year of pain and bad sleep. He trained very little and played only minutes not hours. But he has one target and now he can laugh about it.

[jostorres]

Looks like it will continue, I saw the information that AC Milan confirm Zlatan Ibrahimovic faces eight months out after knee surgery

AC Milan still has Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud, both of whom have performed quite well this season, these two players are AC Milan's top scorer this season. They can both fill the position up front replace Ibrahimovic. I'm a little doubtful about ibrahimovic's career at ac milan after his contract expires in June 2022, yes maybe because of ibrahimovic's age and injury.

And he will continue to play? I mean by the time this is over, and he will come back even if at late second half of the next season, he will be something like 41-42 something like that. I am not saying that he should retire but do we really think that Milan needs a 41 year old Zlatan that came out of a big knee injury? Why couldn't they get someone younger?

There are so many young strikers that could provide as much as he does, maybe they won't sell any jersey and that is the reason. I am pretty sure that many people must have bought Zlatan Milan new jersey and that is good business, but he is not at a level where he could take a 8 month break and come back.

[CLS63]

I would also like to congratulate Milan for their huge success in the Serie A. They must have really missed becoming the champions in the league. They had a long break like ten years in the end. Milan actually didn't have a very fascinating lineup but the team play was the thing that made them become this much successful this time. They had a decent season previously and I thought it was a signal for this season. They just indicated that they weren't going to be merciful if Inter or some other team made big mistakes. And they did it.

Rumors currently circulating that Ibrahimovic is rumored to be retiring in the near future due to the injury he suffered. even though ibrahimovic is quite important for AC Milan this season because he is able to bring enthusiasm to other players on the field. but the current reality is that ibrahimovic has to be out for six months. Of course, AC Milan had to look for other stickers to replace Ibrahimovic.

With no Milan players on the top scorer list then it's true that Milan really need a new striker which can increase the morale of players in the match
So far I haven't heard who Milan is looking for next season but they really need it I'm not saying the current squad is lacking but it would be better if they had another one as a backup .

[hahay]

Yesterday's game saw Roma winning the Europa conference league title and if I'm honest, I'd say they fought hard. I initially felt feyenoord will have a chance this time bit it seemed Roma were not willing to take chances despite being pressed by feyenoord.
Nikolo Zaniolo's goal in the 32nd minute sealed Roma's fate as the winners and although feyenoord tried to bounce back, they could not meet up. This should be more like a consolation for not being able to make it to champions league next season but at least they qualified for the Europa tho.

I wonder if the team that won the Europa Conference League, for example, didn't finish in the Europa League zone but by winning the Europa Conference League title, would they be able to be part of the Europa League next season. Because the current case is that Roma in the final standings are in the Europa League zone for next season. Because so far, when a team does not finish in the Champions League zone but the team can become the winner of the Europa League title, that team will automatically become part of the Champions League for next season. Look at Frankfurt, even Frankfurt in the final standings of the Bundesliga is only a team that is in 11th position, but because Frankfurt won the Europa League title, next season Frankfurt will be part of the Champions League without a play-off round.

Roma has already secured the Europa league position and it was a match that was not played for having a spot in the competition. Rather it was played to prove that they can achieve some great things. Roma has finished in the 6th position I believe so they are going to play in the Europa league competition regardless of their win in the conference League final. And I have to say it was a really historical win for Roma and also the coach Jose Mourinho.

Yes, I know that, I mean. For example, if at this time Roma or we just assume with other teams to make it easier to understand. For example, as we know at the end of the current standings Atalanta did not finish in the European zone but with Atalanta being the title winner in the Europa Conference League this season "for example", does that make Atalanta have the right to the Europa League next season? Because this European tournament has tiers, and sometimes we don't know what their advantages are being title winners in the European zone which will be applied to the next season.

You are absolutely right, it's a pity that no AC Milan player has entered the top 5 goal scorers this season. Even though AC Milan is the winner of
the Serie A trophy this season, it means that AC Milan does not have strikers who are really killer. This should be an evaluation of AC Milan to
bring in strikers who are productive in scoring goals. Because competing next season will be more difficult, if AC Milan doesn't have productive forwards.
Moreover, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is also injured more often, then Olivier Giroud who is already 35 years old there is a possibility that his performance
will decline next season. Indeed, AC Milan should consider bringing in new players in the transfer market this summer, especially for the striker position.
AC Milan really needs a productive striker.

It's true that the mistakes made by Inter Milan and other teams made them take the opportunity perfectly, and return with the Scudetto title after so long. One thing that attracted me, the presence of Ibrahimovic in this team made the changes that AC Milan really needed, yes he contributed greatly to AC Milan's success in winning the title this season.

He is currently really old for football and shouldnt be playing at all. Now with this injury i think he will retire for sure but with how his fighting spirit goes i wouldnt be surprised if he tries again once he recovers but it will take a miracle to get back into form honestly at that age

Zlatan is now 40 years old. Although his fitness is still very good. However, at the age of 40, he will not be able to play like a young man. However, he is still a very important player for AC Milan. When he is on the field, the players become more confident and their morale is strong. Milan will not be able to find his proper replacement now.

I'm not sure, that's why I said AC Milan still has Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud, they can replace Ibrahimmovic's role at AC Milan. It is proven by their success in bringing Acmilan to win the Serie A this season. Ibrahimmovic's contract at AC Milan expires in June, it's only a few months away,  while Ibrahimovic needs at least 8 months to recover from his injury.

Motivation comes from his presence. As a result of knee surgery, Zlatan will miss the next 7-8 months. My best wishes for a speedy recovery for him. Best wishes for his next endeavor. Not sure if he still wants to play football. The only person who can replace Zlatan is Zlatan himself. It won't be easy for him to recover from major knee surgery at his age. He cannot perform at his usual high level. It might be time for him to retire after a great career.

[babo]

Ibra is a particular character: rude, presumptuous, arrogant, aggressive
but, he is a generous person who gives a lot, has given and continues to give the team the energy and determination, even if sick he is a great driver
