Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Bad news, Pogba goes under surgery, and he will stay out 2 months.
Meanwhile Atalanta won again and now they are in the top, I don't think it will last but whatever.

As I said initially, Pogba took a big risk when he chose a conservative method of treatment instead of surgery - in the end he came to the very beginning, but lost a whole month.
Interestingly, different sources are now writing opposite things about his prospects - some news say that he will definitely miss the World Cup, and others that he will only be out for 6 weeks.

Paul Pogba who was expected to be new ammunition for Juventus had to be absent for months right before Serie A started. Juventus really hope Pogba recovers from his injury sooner than the appointed time, but Pogba's steps make Juventus worried because he prefers conservative treatment methods over surgery. Pogba's healing process is ongoing, but it is not certain when he will be able to return to play. Most likely he will miss the World Cup, because the World Cup will start on November 21 2022.

I see no reason to think that Juventus' performance will improve if Pogba returns to Juventus. We haven't seen any good performances from Pogba in the last few seasons. So even if he is with the Juventus squad, it won't have a big impact on their performance. I think he can fix his fitness before the World Cup. He continues to try his best to join the squad very quickly.

Basically cohesiveness that can improve team performance, indeed if one of the regular players is not on the lineup will slightly change the style of the game
By the way, if you want to see the players who contribute the most in each team we can check the list of assists  or top scores, well from there we can see who are the important players in the team.

At the moment there is really only 1 team that has really been able to convince in my view and that is Atalanta Bergamo. They have been at the absolute top in Italy for a few years and have also once reached the quarter-finals / semi-finals of the Champions League. A logical step would be that they would become champions one day, even if individually, of course, they do not have the best team. Based on market value I don't think they are even in the top 10 but as a team they play great. Except for last season. It was good before that. They are now first, Inter Milan also have a bad start this season.

Atlanta managed to be at the top of the Italian league standings by achieving positive results without even losing, without having many star players and also a market value that is far below that of teams such as Juventus and Intermilan, but in fact atlanta has been giving many surprises every seasons by being at big four of the standings, but even so, I have a little doubt that they will be able to win the scudetto this season, because as usual every mid-season atlanta will definitely experience a decline in performance so make they slowly move away from the scudetto.

But indeed this is still early although it is something good because the longer the focus of the big teams will be on the Europa League and Champions League but it is different from Atalanta now because indeed they are still focused on Serie A considering that now they are not in the Europa League and Champions League.
This is something that is quite good for them but on the other hand it depends on them who have to work hard because if you look at last season they lost because of a busy schedule so their rotation was messed up in the middle of the season, and now their schedule is still very safe whether they will mess up again like last season or not depends on the scheme that will be run later.

I like what Mou said in this press conference because indeed in this case he also realizes what he has to improve to make Roma bounce back, but is it true that with this he will return to using the same formation as 3-4-2-1 because if they wanted to attack maybe it would be better to put more pressure with 4-3-3 or maybe by putting pressure on 3-5-2 because in my opinion when you want to attack with a 3-4-2-1 formation, this is definitely enough. burden the defenders when receiving a quick counterattack.

Roma looks like a blunder when putting Tammy in front without Dybala as a supply. When I look at the previous how they win, Dybala is used as a shadow to mess up the defender, at this time I can't see them on Udinese. As I know, there is 1 lack of Mourinho, His strategy is very easy to read by opponents. He doesn't improve it on every match, so that the opponent can turn it off and surpass them whatever the formation.

I see no reason to think that Juventus' performance will improve if Pogba returns to Juventus. We haven't seen any good performances from Pogba in the last few seasons. So even if he is with the Juventus squad, it won't have a big impact on their performance. I think he can fix his fitness before the World Cup. He continues to try his best to join the squad very quickly.

We have to be able to tell the difference between the EPL and Serie A because it's clear they can't be compared.
Pogba's performance in the EPL did not go well because the tension and style of play did not fit him there. But the big chance for Serie A is clearly still there. The problem is we have to wait until January for this because I read that now Pogba has agreed to the operation and it will most likely take 2 months or more to fully recover.

They still can't do good teamwork so it will still be difficult to get a win, so at least they should be able to control the problem first because it is the most important thing to still have good strength and it will be easy to get a win.

Dybala adapted very well in Roma and he connected well enough with Tammy and other players. Tamny on the other hands, seems to be lack of both luck and accuracy for his shots. It is different than the past season but I think he will return to his best, with his skills, confidence and efforts as well as psychological support from Mourinho.

Roma needs their attacking players to minimize opportunity wasting because with Mourinho tactic, one goal is a big difference to become winner or loser. If Roma lets their opponents score leading goal first, they will be in more troubles. They should score leading goal and secure it to get three points.

I don't think, Atalanta will reduce their performance in this season because their coach has changed so many things from the team that will make them to finish this season well compared to last season that made their performance reduced at the end of the tournament. Now that Atalanta has moved to the top, I don't think they will drop down until they achieve this season title, because their strikers are well organized to work together to ensure they achieve many goals that will help them to remain unbeatable through out the tournament.

Roma has one big problem: Jose Mourinho.
an inept and expensive technician
if he takes the money spent on this useless manager and spends it on players, he definitely does a better thing

it is no coincidence that the results are visible

Roma has one the worst defeat in early days of this season even few weeks back mostly peoples were feeling they are title race contender and in this match against Udinese they were better in all statics but sadly completely fail to convert any of their chance which is big setback for Mourinho and his team if they will take as lesson for them surely they are going to be had better results in coming matches because right now most of the teams at top in Serie A are struggling badly in quality as Inter, Juventus and now Roma but surely things will be clear soon.

Napoli and Atlanta are currently leading table even in last season these teams were at top and then slip most chances same results are going to have in this season as well because these teams fail to keep quality on same level which is big concern for them.

Atalanta last season went very badly, but it happens.
As a fan I understand and do not make problems of this.
This season will go better, they are first but the data is partial: it depends on which matches they played, maybe they were simple compared to the others.

There is no doubt that Paulo Dybala has indeed managed to adapt to the Roma game, even in the previous game we could see Dybala's good
cooperation with other Roma players. The problem with Dybala is that Dybala's shooting accuracy is still poor, Mourinho acknowledged this after
Roma was defeated by Udinese. But I'm sure Dybala will be given special training by Mourinho, so that his shooting accuracy will improve and
I'm sure Dybala can do that.

I also agree with you that the weakness of Mourinho's strategy is that they prioritize winning and prefer to play defensively. So Roma is more waiting
for the opponent to attack and make mistakes. However, this strategy will be high risk if the opposing team manages to score a goal first. Usually
Roma players will panic and they will make a lot of mistakes. Mourinho should be more flexible with his strategy, facing weaker teams, Roma should
play more attacking and dare to put high pressure on opposing players. Moreover, the quality of Roma players allows Mourinho to carry out
an attacking strategy. But it seems difficult to expect Mourinho to change his strategy, because Mourinho is a stubborn person.

Atalanta have been very dangerous for several years only bad luck not going to the champions league this season. Even Pep when playing against atalanta praised the atalanta team and even lost many goals that should have been goals. Hopefully this season Atalanta will return to the UCL or other European zones.

Since moving to Juventus from Manchester United, Pogba has not yet participated in any competitive matches because of a meniscus injury to his knee.

In fact, Paul Pogba has chosen surgery after first opting for rehabilitation in order to compete in the World Cup in Qatar and maintain his spot on the French national squad. However, if it takes two months to recover from surgery, Pogba is probably going to miss the World Cup in Qatar.

Even though last season Atalanta didn't manage to finish in the European zone, but I also still think it's reasonable because after all Atalanta I can say is not a big team with a lot of money that can do anything. With Atalanta's ability as a team as it is, I think Atalanta is still on a good line in its competition in Serie A and with that, Atalanta will still have a chance to finish the season in the European zone. What's more, as long as the big teams in Serie A are still not stable in consistent performance, then Atalanta still has a chance to be the best in the hunt for European tickets for next season.

[karabiber]

Atalanta finished last season with a poor performance but they started this season very well. If this performance continues, we can expect a surprise from Atalanta at the end of the league. With the Monza match, they maintained their league leadership by widening the points gap. It was a team that was underestimated but as of now it is a team to be taken seriously. Hojlund and Lookman shine like star. If they continue their effective football they can see their first championship in Serie A this year. The fact that they will not compete in European cups this year will cause them to focus only on the league.

Yes, Atalanta's chance to get a place in the European zone is still very open. Especially now that they are starting the season very well compared to other clubs. I think if they are able to maintain the current state, finishing in the Champions League zone is not impossible even though their opponents are now quite tough. The key is they don't lose points if they face a competitor for that spot.

If Pogba's recovery drags on then it will be a simple matter of not going to the World Cup. The question is how the headquarters of the French national team will be able to solve the problem if Pogba formally recovers. How will it be possible to evaluate his playing shape and understand whether he will be useful in the national team? Pogba is the epitome of a headache for everyone this season

Atalanta's chances of getting to the UCL next season may be tough, because this season the top team in Serie A has show us their good performance. However, we still don't know for sure how the team will perform in Serie-a in the next few weeks. Whether they can stay consistent or not. If there are 2 of the top teams in Serie A who are inconsistent while Atalanta manage to show their consistency, then Atalanta can have a chance to be in 4th position in the final standings.

Atalanta showed improved form compared to the previous season, it looks like Gasperini did a good job as a coach by evaluating Atalanta's
performance in the previous season. Gasperini corrected several mistakes made by Atalanta in the previous season, therefore Atalanta's
performance this season is much different from the previous season. I'm even quite optimistic that Atalanta can enter the top 6 this season,
so next season Atalanta can return to playing in European competitions. But to get into the top 4 is quite difficult, Atalanta must manage to
get points when facing strong teams. As previously Atalanta managed to draw with AC Milan, but Atalanta still need to prove they can get points
from other strong Serie A teams. So we really have to see Atalanta's performance against other big teams first, to finally conclude whether Atalanta
deserves to be in the top 4 or not.

Atalanta's chances of getting to the UCL next season may be tough, because this season the top team in Serie A has show us their good performance. However, we still don't know for sure how the team will perform in Serie-a in the next few weeks. Whether they can stay consistent or not. If there are 2 of the top teams in Serie A who are inconsistent while Atalanta manage to show their consistency, then Atalanta can have a chance to be in 4th position in the final standings.

Precisely with their current condition and no schedule that is too tight for them this can be an advantage for Atalanta this season so that they can make them better than other teams.
Last season they failed because they couldn't make a good rotation when their schedule was tight in matches, now it's a different thing because they can freely and focus only on Serie A while other clubs have to think about the league and other competitions.
