Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

To build a team requires a process and strong finances to support the coach in recruiting the players he wants. I think Napoli's management is aware of this and with their current capabilities they will definitely try to rebuild this team from scratch after last season's failure.

Napoli management's decision to recruit Antonio Conte is a pretty good step, Antonio Conte is a coach who has good qualities and is very experienced in Serie A so it is very likely that he will be able to make Napoli rise, but not necessarily in his first season he will immediately be able to get Napoli back on track. in the top flight again, everything also requires a process and Napoli's management must also be patient for that and not make the mistake of changing coaches again like they did last season.

A great and strong team is not built in one season and of course it takes a lot of time for the coach to do it, in addition to indeed needing a capable and experienced coach, of course the team management must trust and support the performance of the coach fully with the finances they have, Conte is a very experienced coach in coaching the club, but he will not be able to turn Napoli into a scudetto competitor team in a short time,  so I think the management has to give him time to be able to slowly find the right formula to be able to restore Napoli as a Scudetto contender.

Napoli has been quite good financially, but if you pay attention, the main problem of Napoli today is the owner of the club who does not hesitate to sell his star players when it comes to big offers, besides that Napoli experience with Spalletti last season can be a reference for how bad Aurelio de Laurentiis leadership was while leading Napoli, often he intervened too much in every decision made by the coach so that it was difficult for the coach to develop his squad well and maybe that will also happen to Conte later.

Last season was a very impressive season for Napoli, their ability to win the Scudetto at the time is really great

It was completely Spalletti effect. We have all seen how much he made difference.    But since he decided to leave the team couldn't pull themselves together. They changed a few managers in only one season which is another horrible move. You can't achieve success in this way. Players have to adapt to a new manager and his system every single time. You are just losing a lot of time in the meantime.

I wish they signed Conte much earlier. Maybe there would be a way to save the team even during the previous season. At least to help them qualify for a tournament. Anyways, I believe in Conte to make a very positive impact.

Napoli management felt that any coach can do the job because Spalletti was able to win the trophy. Unknown to them that a good coach is all a club needs to be successful and it is not all coaches that have the ability to manage new players that he just started with.

I believe that Napoli management have understood that a good coach matters a lot after their poor performance last season which was a disappointment to a lot of people as the defending champions. I believe Napoli will pick form next season since they gat a new coach who is capable of the job.

[Blitzboy]

Since Napoli formal manager left the team, it has made Napoli performance very low in the Italian league competition, because the manager know how to select players to Play in the first half and second half, and it will bring victory at the end. But since their managements brought in a new manager, it has made Napoli team to look like a weak team to other teams, because they find it difficult to defeat small team because their new manager is not use to the players yet. I think, next season will going to be a better season for Napoli if Napoli players will still be complete in the team next season, because their manager has discovered some of the challenges that is affecting the team not to perform well this season, and it will going to make them to perform excellently in the future.

Napoli began a new era with Antonio Conte, he was an experienced coach and of course had mastered Serie A. Certainly not easy for Conte if he was not given fresh funds to bring in several players to build his squad. De Laurentis must realize that this season his team was very down and he also had to change his bad habits that were too interfere with and intervened in the coach like his case with Spalletti. If the President of Napoli is able to make good relations with the coach and his staff, I am sure Conte will be able to bring Napoli to rise and be able to compete in the top board. Of course finish the top four to be the most realistic target instead of aiming directly to the scudetto.

Napoli is a great team. Conte is a top-tier coach, therefore they made the proper choice. Though, turning this team around wont happen overnight. Napoli needs a total makeover. They need new players, strategy, and mindset. Imagine building a skyscraper on an unstable foundation. You cant just paint and be done. You gotta start from the ground up.

Conte may be able to. He's repeatedly proven himself. But the owners must fully support him. Napoli hasn't always been patient. Their coaches are fired faster than anything. Im hopeful about Napoli's future. Winners like Conte know how to develop winning teams. Napoli's owners must give him time, resources, and support to succeed. If they dont, well, get ready for another season of mediocrity

if you look at history, it cannot be denied that Juventus is the most successful club and has lots of Serie A trophies.
especially during its heyday from 2012 to 2020, Juventus' dominance in Serie A was unbeatable. This is one record that has not been broken for quite a long time. Became the Serie A league champion 9 times in a row without a break. Meanwhile, previously this was also the case, there have been many Scudetto trophies won by Juventus.


Source: Clubs with the most Serie A titles as of 2024

But unfortunately, since then, Juventus' performance has increasingly declined, even last season where Juventus was involved in a case and received quite heavy sanctions, it became a dark period for Juventus in Serie A. They really couldn't fight anymore, especially when they were given a cut in numbers. really big point. And since then, now, Juventus has slumped again. Even though at first they were very excited and their performance had started to improve again, since being overtaken by Inter Milan, their performance has dropped again. It seems like they need more support systems so they can play more optimally.

I feel like it is quite important to realize that Juventus may not be doing that great, but they also have a situation where they are never that bad neither. With some points deductions and all, they have been blocked off getting good results, but they still have a lot of fans and a lot of income, meaning that they are not going to get that bad ever.

I think the fact that they were sent to lower leagues and then came back and won 9 in a row is a great proof of this. Sure they are not doing amazingly right now, but we are going to end up with a much better result nowadays, it is going to be quite good. We just need to wait, because with time, Juventus will fix itself and build a much better squad without a doubt, it just takes a bit of time.

In the 2022/23 season that Napoli won the Italian Serie A title, it was masterminded by their former manager Luciano Spalleti but subsequently after he won the scudetto with the Italian club, he left the club before Rudi Garcia was appointed as his replacement but unfortunately for Garcia, he couldn't live up to the expectations of the club management as well as the club fans. The just concluded season was a very forgettable one for Napoli who ended the season as the worst defending champions in the history of the league. Now that Napoli have signed a very tactical manager in the person of Antonio Conte, I strongly believe that Napoli will likely bounce back to winning ways again. The club's players are happy to see that Conte is now the club manager as that have made a lot of them  who initially wanted to leave the club to have a rethink.
I'll be very happy to see them challenging for trophies come next season but for them to become competitive again, I also think it'll take a little time because of the fact that it'll take a few players of the club some time to adapt to Antonio Conte's style of football

Sometimes bringing in a new coach is only partially successful or far from the club's expectations. Talking about whether or not Conte is able to make an impact on change all depends on how Napoli addresses all the problem points within the club. I don't doubt Conte's formulation when dealing with an Italian club. However, things are different when dealing with English clubs, he always fails, hopefully Conte will be able to bring change next season.

Every coach can also learn from failures in the past when coaching a new team in a different league from the previous one and in the next season of course Conte must prove himself again with Napoli because Conte will nurture the Napoli players and make them better in the championship. And even though Conte's performance has not yet started at Napoli, I am sure every coach will try to make the team better even though there is a possibility for the opposite also at Napoli.

It's true, the old coach and the new coach will still have very different character traits. There is no guarantee that Napoli will win again under the coaching of Antonio Conte. I would rather agree if Antonio Conte uses almost the same strategy used by the coach before him and improves some of the strategies to make them even better, so that in this way there is a possibility for Napoli to win this season.

I would rather agree if Antonio Conte uses almost the same strategy used by the coach before him and improves some of the strategies to make them even better, so that in this way there is a possibility for Napoli to win this season.

Every coach has a different match strategy. So, with the help of the new Napoli coach Antonio Conte, it is expected that the Napoli team will develop again. The Napoli team is not weak. The squad has a lot of talented players. At the same time, Antonio Conte is quite an experienced coach. He was successful as coach of Juventus, Inter Milan and Chelsea.

Napoli will definitely need to strengthen their squad if they want to build a squad capable of winning the title. They have to spend money. With the help of an experienced coach, maybe there will be some stability in Napoli's performance. But a strong squad is needed first if they want to fight for the title.

[slapper]

They really performed poorly last season after the previous season they won. I think under Conte's coaching Napoli will perform better. They don't need to rush and Conte must be able to evaluate the squad as a whole. I think Napoli benefit because they are not playing in European competition next season. They have had a lot of time to prepare to play in Serie A and I am sure they will be able to get into a better position next season. With a note that their striker, Osimhen, chose to stay in Napoli. There are many rumors that Osimhen will leave the club. I think if that happens Napoli will experience a very significant decline in performance.

With Conte's arrival at the Napoli club, of course there are great hopes that Napoli fans themselves will have for next season as long as the Napoli squad is still quite united and do not hate each other at the club. Apart from that, Osimhen can still be relied on as a fairly active front line player even though Conte himself also has to improve the back line in order to make a team like Napoli stronger in Serie A. Because Conte is expected to be able to pass on his experience to the Napoli players. So that Napoli can get better improvements in their performance next season.

Conte is going to bring back that killer instinct and alpha mindset to this team. Forget about tactics. Locker room drama? Conte don't give a f*ck, he'll whip these guys into shape. Conte is very, very intense, like nuclear-level powerful. Can these Napoli players take that? They've been spoiled. Yes, Osimhen is a beast, but will Conte's system let him go? The guy needs to be able to run, not be locked down defensively. Honestly, I'm excited. Conte is a star in Serie A. However, Napoli is not like Juventus or Inter. This might be beautiful, or it might be a trash fire

No two different persons have got the exact same character, so expecting such from different coaches will be ridiculous as they have got varying personalities and will not be having same mindset tho they may share similar things in common but they cannot be seen as been of same mindset,  This variation in character makes them different and having the abilities to the limit which they can make certain achievement at certain times, but asides from that,  the abilities of these Coach are their peculiar skills which they possess which makes it possible for a coach to achieve so much with a team and yet another will achieve so less with same team.

Napoli now have. Coach who's got a relatively good reputation in football all his career, the chances he's going to achieve a lot with them is very high because he's got a record that over the years have been seen to be such that has built that trust around his reputation and his abilities in that even if Napoli appears weak currently, it's believed with time, it's possible Napoli will get better under his leadership and they will be able to get back to been at the top or possibly winning the league title again but if it's going to be this season, is something I'm not and cannot be sure of currently until they eventually get through the season.

[Mayor of ogba]

Juventus must recruit several players for next season because the strength they currently have is not strong enough to compete. Building a team with much younger players will make it easier for coaches in the long term so they can adapt and be solid every time they play. Juventus' current strength is not very strong and they have to replace several players who are already old.

One of the reasons may be that he has experienced players but there is no guarantee that he will be able to compete for the title. Just like what happened last season where they were unable to face several crucial lags by relying on several experienced players because they were inferior in quality to the opposing players.

Juventus still have a lot to work on their team because right now they are not on their best performance and it was even with struggling they were able to secure the third position they did on this season making them to qualify for the champions League next season, so perhaps if is a club that needs to improve next season they will never hesitate to recruit more capable players because last season may likely be nothing compared to what they will see next season, so preparing ahead of time will be actually a great beneficial to them so that before the next season they will be ready.

Yeah for now especially with their performance this season I don't think they will be a threat to other team next season because they don't have what it takes now, however is very obvious that they will find it difficult to cope on the champions League because their are so many clubs there that's doing very well more than Juventus so if they failed to invest on more players I'm afraid they may not even be able to qualify from their group stage.

Since the beginning of this season, Juventus has been consistently winning their matches in the Serie A and competing with Inter Milan for the Scudetto. But after Inter Milan beat Juventus for the Scudetto, Juventus started struggling to win their matches in the league, and they even found it difficult to qualify for the next season's UEFA Champions League competition. If Juventus wants to challenge Inter Milan for the Scudetto next season, they need to overhaul their squad so that they can get good results when the new Serie A season starts. But if Juventus fails to do this, they will get a similar performance as they did this season when the new Serie A season starts because their squad is not good enough.

[Furious 7]

Every coach can also learn from failures in the past when coaching a new team in a different league from the previous one and in the next season of course Conte must prove himself again with Napoli because Conte will nurture the Napoli players and make them better in the championship. And even though Conte's performance has not yet started at Napoli, I am sure every coach will try to make the team better even though there is a possibility for the opposite also at Napoli.

If you look at the whole Conte has never even failed to change the game scheme of the club he coaches even though there are several situations that actually become difficult and make plans in the match fail just like at Tottenham where he even left in the condition of the season still running but indeed in terms of performance and carrying out every scheme he has done he remains one of the good coaches to date.

Napoli have a pretty good attack scheme even though this season their productivity and defense are quite bad but in terms of dominance they always play well.
At the moment Conte only needs to give a little touch of his cold hand to fix the problematic attack and defense lines because for the problem of teamwork Napoli will still be one of the strong clubs in Serie A.

Now we need to see whether or not there is a significant overhaul by Conte to make a difference in terms of Napoli's performance this season and next season.

[bering]

Just like i said before because Adrien Rabiot contract will be expired this June and probably Juventus won't give him contract extension and recently Juventus have stopped negotiations with Adrien Rabiot for a new contract which means they will let him leave this summer because Juventus felt that 9 million per year salary increase that Rabiot wanted was too high so that's why they won't push Rabiot to stay and probably Juventus will look for new potential player as the replacement of Adrien Rabiot

It says Juventus will attempts to buy Nice player Khephren Thuram and why they want him because Thiago Motta feel Khephren Thuram could be suitable as the replacement of Adrien Rabiot moreover Khephren Thuram has cheap price because Nice only will sell this player approximately 20 million besides that Khephren Thuram only have 2 million salary per year so if Juventus can bought him from Nice then they can save money on player salaries and Khephren Thuram also still categorized as young player because his current age is 23 years old so Juventus feel Khephren Thuram can more develop with them

Managerial position are minimal and we understand the current situation of everything. Electing a coach these days is very difficult because picking a coach might become one of the different settings put in place. Napoli president have suffered more than necessary and we understand how everything will play out. Antonio Conte will deliver great things in his new club, we know bow tactical the coach may be and how he has managed to hits the top spot this seaosn.

.............Juventus is the most successful club and has lots of Serie A trophies.
especially during its heyday from 2012 to 2020, Juventus' dominance in Serie A was unbeatable. This is one record that has not been broken for quite a long time. Became the Serie A league champion 9 times in a row without a break. Meanwhile, previously this was also the case, there have been many Scudetto trophies won by Juventus.

36 Scudettos, 16 Coppa Italia titles, 2 UEFA Champions Leagues, 3 UEFA Cups and many other titles. I will say without exaggeration, if there is any Italian team that deserves to be a counterweight to giants such as Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​M.U... it must be Juventus. Mental strength is one of the weapons that helped Juventus win Serie A nine times in a row between 2011 and 2020. But now, they easily sink and cannot get up every time they encounter problems in the match. Juventus does not show any desire to return to the top. Their playing style seems to be improvised and left to the initiative of each player. With the team's current form, a change in the coaching position will be necessary to revive Juventus. Juventus needs to overcome the crisis soon before things become out of their reach. if they don't want to see the collapse of an empire called Juventus.

Yes, history is like that. Juventus still holds an extraordinary record in Serie A, and to be honest, I also admit that they are worthy of being compared to various other league giants. But unfortunately, like Man United, Juventus have dropped quite a bit this season, oops, no, they have dropped a lot. As time goes by, other clubs in Serie A are improving their performance, but Juventus doesn't seem to be able to do it very well. It's true what people say, maintaining it will be much more difficult compared to the various efforts you want to make to achieve the target.

Now, Juventus has a new coach, whether he will be successful or not, the coach will also have a big impact on the entire squad. It's just that we have to have more confidence in Motta to do it for Juventus. They have been away from the trophy for quite some time. So, Motta must be as efficient as possible to make Juventus come back stronger this season.

if you look at history, it cannot be denied that Juventus is the most successful club and has lots of Serie A trophies.
especially during its heyday from 2012 to 2020, Juventus' dominance in Serie A was unbeatable.

I feel like it is quite important to realize that Juventus may not be doing that great, but they also have a situation where they are never that bad neither. With some points deductions and all, they have been blocked off getting good results, but they still have a lot of fans and a lot of income, meaning that they are not going to get that bad ever.

Yes, the fact that Juventus has made history like that is true, and we cannot deny that Juventus used to be that strong and consistent. It's not easy to maintain that title consistently and that many times in a row, right? Yes, they have plans for the future. Because somehow, they are trying to rebuild it. As well as what happened this season, actually at the beginning of the season, we really thought that Juventus were really starting to show their performance was much better. But unfortunately it is really inconsistent and in fact the performance drops over time.

After a relatively long absence, Antonio Conte finally returned to the football world when he agreed to sign a contract until 2027 with Napoli. This is not the first time Antonio Conte has been tasked with reviving a club in his hometown. When Spalletti left the club after a legendary title-winning campaign, he left a void that none of last season's three managers were able to fill. In theory, the decision to appoint Conte is relatively wise because he is one of the few coaches who can improve the team's results in a short time. Conte is an ambitious coach. He will not lead the team if the board of directors does not have a specific development plan. Therefore, his nod to Napoli means that the club's upper management will fully support the transfer process. Let's wait and see how strategist Conte will change Napoli after this year's summer market.

[kawetsriyanto]

Juventus has so many players who are over 30 years old. This needs to change immediately. They need to evolve into a more dynamic team to fight harder for Serie A titles. Football is changing and dynamic teams are one step ahead now.

Yep. Juventus has 8 players with ages 30+. 2 players are 29 years old and will be 30 soon. If Juventus buy more old players 30+ years old, they can make a lineup with full 30+ players someday.   Well, I don't really get your point about "dynamic team" but Juventus must think about regeneration. They must have young players in every line in order to replace those old players someday. We all know that most players at 30+, they are no longer in their prime age. So, their performance will begin decreasing gradually. If Motta wants to improve the quality of Juventus squad, he must buy younger players.

Motta is a young manager which is a plus for Juventus about this topic. I wouldn't expect him to prefer old player signings much. His system would also be different from Allegri probably. But before anything else, they need new transfers like I said before. If they sign midfielders who can contribute much more to scoring, it isn't too difficult for them to stay in the title competition until the final moments.

I also didn't expect him to sign old players at 30+. When he was managing Bologna, he built the team with young players. Only 5 players at 30+ was in Bologna squad at that time, I hope Juventus squad will be built with young players as well. Motta must know how to build an ideal squad for Juventus. As long as Juventus wants to spend a lot of money, Motta won't be difficult to get many talented young players.

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Just like i said before because Adrien Rabiot contract will be expired this June and probably Juventus won't give him contract extension and recently Juventus have stopped negotiations with Adrien Rabiot for a new contract which means they will let him leave this summer because Juventus felt that 9 million per year salary increase that Rabiot wanted was too high so that's why they won't push Rabiot to stay and probably Juventus will look for new potential player as the replacement of Adrien Rabiot

Yes, Adrien Rabiot is certain to leave Juventus and play for a new club next season but I'm not sure Khéphren Thuram is the right player to replace Adrien Rabiot because based on statistics in Ligue 1 the performance is not very impressive and maybe that's the reason why the salary is lower. Previously, Nice brought this player from Monaco as a free transfer imagine how much they would earn if they could release this player to Juventus with a transfer fee up to 20 million.

If Juventus thinks this is only for temporary players then that's fine but they will have difficulty catching Inter Milan next season because the abilities of Inter Milan players are above average, but sometimes the situation is different when a player moves to a new club we cannot equalize all conditions.

[Moreno233]

I would rather agree if Antonio Conte uses almost the same strategy used by the coach before him and improves some of the strategies to make them even better, so that in this way there is a possibility for Napoli to win this season.

There is no way Antonio Conte will use exactly the same strategy like the former coach. What would then be the need of hiring him? The management of Napoli saw a problem with the team and that was the reason the decided to change the coach who is expected to offer solution that will reposition the team into what they used to be. Even if Antonio Conte retain all the players without any new addition, I am sure he will definitely make major changes in their playing pattern because every coach have their signature style of play.

[Rustam Meraj]

Yes, Adrien Rabiot is certain to leave Juventus and play for a new club next season but I'm not sure Khéphren Thuram is the right player to replace Adrien Rabiot because based on statistics in Ligue 1 the performance is not very impressive and maybe that's the reason why the salary is lower.

If Juventus thinks this is only for temporary players then that's fine but they will have difficulty catching Inter Milan next season because the abilities of Inter Milan players are above average, but sometimes the situation is different when a player moves to a new club we cannot equalize all conditions.

I think Adrien Rabiot will probably leave Juventus but I am not sure Khéphren Thuram is right player to replace him. Thuram stats in Ligue 1 are not good which is why he does not earn a lot. Nice got him for free from Monaco and selling him to Juventus for a lot of money would be great deal. If Juventus thinks Thuram is just temporary fix that is OK. But relying on him to help them catch up with Inter Milan next season might be too hopeful since Inter has some really talented players. That being said players can surprise us when they join new teams so let's see how Thuram does in his new role.
