Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Leviathan.007]

When Daniele De Rossi was appointed as the manager of AS Roma last season, the Italian manager was quick to improve the performance of the team which made many believe that sacking Jose Mourinho and appointing De was a good decision but regrettably, Roma since the start of the season have been absolutely poor with their performances and result which have left them in the bottom five of the league table. Though we're still in the first six weeks of the new Italian Serie A but I strongly doubt that Roma will finish the season in the top 6 of the league table of De Rossi continues to manage the club

De Rossi really succeeded in making Roma achieve good results last season. But all of that seemed to be just because at that time he was only continuing the squad that Mourinho had built. So it seems like last season's good results were only because he continued Mourinho's work. But this season he is rebuilding the Roma squad. some players left and some new players were added. But it seems the results are not what everyone expected. We know everyone seems to be expecting too much from De Rossi in Roma. And now everyone must realize that De Rossi is only a young coach who still has a lot to learn in handling a big team. Even though Roma may not have even won once, I think De Rossi will slowly make improvements. But I also doubt that I will see Roma ranked in the top 6 like last season.

De Rossi is a young coach and when Mourinho was coaching the other teams, De Rossi was still a player but even with his young age, this inexperienced coach had an amazing performance in Roma. De Rossi was really successful for Roma. the moment when he joined Roma they did not have a good situation and the whole team was in the bad form because of the bad atmosphere in Roma, people were saying if Mourinho couldn't help Roma to get improve even after the player the player he bought for this team how a young coach like De Rossi can help them? but he made it and thanks to De Rossi and the changes he made, they have a much better team.

The slight difference in players that De Rosi made in the end became a problem when Mou's previous concoction for players was further modified into a situation that was still unfavorable for De Rosi this season.

The presence of Dovbyk also still has not contributed anything at Roma even though he is one of the players who is actually expected to change the attack line for the better after Lukaku last season could not do much. But in the 4 matches they did actually not much he could do even only scored 1 goal in 4 matches that made Roma also increasingly difficult to get out of the zone even though only 1 defeat they got but 3 clear draws this is a little disturbing for them.
In terms of the actual game Roma does not need to be doubted because indeed they play very well, it's just that in the end when the pattern of attacks carried out and the dominance in possession of the ball which is very good is not accompanied by good goal productivity from their strikers, this clearly becomes a disturbance which in the end until now Roma has not given a good performance.

Against Genoa is the eleventh game De Rossi's without a win, those who can count are certainly unhappy.
Three of the previous four games were completely wrong regarding formation and substitutions, and 7 points were wasted.
De Rossi makes too many formation and substitution mistakes and I still don't understand which module Roma is playing... De Rossi needs a team idea first.
But I have no doubts about Dovbyk, as with almost all newcomers, this is a three-year project.
As a center-forward he is quite promising, it takes time.

Now it is clearly difficult because this season is different from before where previously he only continued what Mou had inherited before leaving but for this season he had to start mixing from the beginning of Roma's strength of course with strategies and schemes that are suitable to do only De Rosi is still not able to do this.
At the moment the situation is a little unfavorable and when this continues, it is possible that De Rosi could leave before the season ends because his poor performance will definitely not be accepted by Roma.

For Dovbyk he needs to re-acclimatize where Serie A still seems to require more adaptation for him, but the opportunity remains only that it depends on De Rosi also whether he is able to utilize Dovbyk or not because if it cannot be done then Dovbyk's talent may decline in Roma.

After the big defeat of Milan in Champions League now Fornseca is at high risk.
Fans are already against the squad and their management for the bad cheap choice at the start of the season.

We already have a possible rumor about the interest from Everton in him.

The game of the next week it will be crucial for his destiny.

The matches that AC Milan will play in the following week will indeed be a determining factor for their coach, Fonseca. Because it seems that the pressure from AC Milan fans is also quite big with disappointment towards the new AC Milan coach who seems to have not been able to show progress at AC Milan except in the last match in Serie A when they faced the weakest team in Serie A, namely Venice. Now Milan also suffered a crushing defeat in the UCL by Liverpool. Of course the pressure will be much greater on Fonseca. It looks like this season AC Milan will have a season that is not easy at all. I hope they can recover soon. And shows their quality that should be better than this.

[KTChampions]

Two matches that will get a lot of attention in the 5th week

Juventus vs Napoli
Inter Milan vs AC Milan

Before the season started, these 4 teams were strong candidates to win the Scudetto this season, but their performance in the previous 4 weeks varied greatly. I mean, none of these 4 teams really looked convincing, because in reality, Udinese is currently leading the standings. On paper, victory tends to side with Inter Milan and Juventus, of course I don't mean to underestimate Napoli and AC Milan.

Actually, this is a good opportunity for Napoli to take over the top of the standings by taking advantage of Juventus tight match schedule in the Champions League, regardless of the result of the match between Inter Milan versus AC Milan. We know that Udinese will face AS Roma, which in fact has almost the same strength, where their match has the potential to end in a draw. Conte certainly sees the opportunity, and we'll see if Napoli can do it.

  These four in any case always had and will have the Serie A title in their pocket. I don’t even want to go into history to check when someone could challenge this dominance.
Three teams out of four have already scored 9 goals and missed a lot (only Juventus is special with 6-0), we can assume that both games will have BTTS and total over. The hosts are favorites, but not so much to bet money on it.

[TelolettOm]

Although we cannot underestimate any team this season, the top teams that consistently win the league are concentrating on their Champions League matches, I won't be shocked if Udinese finishes in the top four. As for their chances of winning the league, we can't say that yet because the season is only getting started.

It is undeniable that their development this season has been very good, they have never even lost. As a club that used to be in number 15 and is currently in top position, it is indeed an extraordinary achievement. Although who knows when it will end.

Because, in the next few week matches, Udinese will undergo several tougher matches with opponents who are also top clubs, so, this will be a big challenge for them to maintain their position.

Anyway, as one of the representatives of Serie A, in the end AC Milan could not hold back their opponent who is also a top club from the Premier League. AC Milan was defeated by Liverpool with a score of 1 - 3. Even though they managed to take the lead first. However, AC Milan really seemed overwhelmed against Liverpool this time, seen from the statistics, Liverpool dominated in various ways.

~snip~

Udinese performed amazingly at the beginning of this season I also did not expect this club to be at the top of the standings even though it was only temporary but this is a good start for them who last season they seemed to have difficulty competing in Serie A and this club fought to be safe from the relegation zone but this season it seems that Udinese has made many improvements and performed better even if I look at the previous 2 matches he was able to hold Bologna to a draw and win against Lazio even though those clubs are tough clubs in Serie A.

I want to see a lot of surprises this season maybe Udinese can be one of the surprising clubs.
I think Atalanta cannot be fully expected because currently Atalanta has lost 6 points from 4 matches besides Atalanta also has a schedule to play in the UCL so it seems difficult for Atalanta to occupy the top position for this season.

Maybe it can be said that Udinese has strong luck because they are currently at the top of the standings, but who knows if they meet a strong team like Inter Milan, Juventus or Ac Milan. Even with their next match which will face Roma I am not sure they will be able to beat Roma, because as far as I know this team is in the development of its performance which might make it difficult for Udinese to face it. I think the maximum they might draw. However, if they can dominate the top ranking this season, it will certainly be a new surprise in Serie A, but I don't think that will happen because they can definitely be shifted by other strong teams. Moreover, this is still early in the season so their journey is still long and it is unlikely that they can continue to survive in this very profitable ranking.

Napoli is first on the table and they have won their last two matches with Lukaku scoring two goals in both matches. This shows that the team is in a good form currently which gives them a good advantage over Juventus.

Inter will always win Milan and I don't know how Milan will escape defeat this time around because they are still struggling with putting the team in a good form.

After Lukaku joined, Napoli's performance seemed to develop quite rapidly. I think if Napoli can continue to maintain this good performance, I think Napoli can become a strong competitor again to become champions in Serie A this season. Because after seeing Napoli's recent performance, I see that their performance is not much different from strong teams like Juventus and Inter. So with this, Napoli just needs to maintain consistent performance well. Because this golden opportunity must be defended well, if they want to become champions again in Serie A. Apart from that, currently the first position which was previously occupied by Napoli has now been replaced by Udinese. So currently Napoli is in 2nd place in Serie A. Meanwhile, Juventus is currently in 4th position in Serie A. I am very impressed with Udinese's performance this season, because so far Udinese has not been defeated in Serie A. Maybe this season Udinese will become a dark horse in Serie A and maybe it will provide an unexpected surprise for all of us.

And talking about Inter and also Milan. Inter's performance is clearly better than Milan. Because Inter is currently in 3rd place in Serie A with a record of 2 wins and two draws. Meanwhile, Milan is currently mired in 10th place with a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 1 loss. So with this, Milan clearly has to try even harder this season. Because if we compare Milan's performance in the previous season with this season, the difference could be said to be quite large. I don't know what caused Milan's performance to decline like now, but what is clear is that if Milan's performance continues like this, I'm sure Milan will have difficulty finishing in the top 5 in Serie A. Apart from that, in the UCL, Milan was also beaten by Liverpool. I think this adds to Milan's bad record this season.

[mamesso]

After the big defeat of Milan in Champions League now Fornseca is at high risk.
Fans are already against the squad and their management for the bad cheap choice at the start of the season.

The crushing defeat against Liverpool made the management and fans furious with Fornseca performance, Milan's defense was very fragile which made it very easy for the opposing players to tear through their goal net. Rossoneri management must act quickly to resolve this issue to calm the fans' anger. Allegri is starting to be linked with Milan and is considered the right person to fix the defense area. Several other coaches are also still unemployed, Maurizio Sarri and Andrea Pirlo, maybe Management can appoint a Foreign Coach like Thomas Tuchel.

The game of the next week it will be crucial for his destiny.

Now Fonseca future depends on the result of the Derby Della Madonnina against Inter Milan.

Fresh news here. De Rossi has officially got sacked by Roma after a poor start...



Honestly I'm very surprised with that. I mean it was only the beginning of the season. He wasn't given enough time to see whether he makes progress. I remember how long Arsenal kept patient with Arteta and how it paid out later on. What a pity... 

With whom do you think his seat will be filled?    For now nobody comes to my mind honestly as I was following the players and managers closer in the latest transfer window. I hope Roma doesn't make a bad choice.

In my opinion, this is a rather hasty decision from Napoli's management, but if we examine it more deeply, Napoli did have to make a decision because De Rossi had already got the players he wanted, but a bad start crossed their minds, because in their four matches Napoli could not get positive results, they only got three draws and one defeat, of course this is a bad start for this city team, but if we examine it now, there are not many outside coaching options and they made a quick decision with De Rossi at the beginning and becoming the first coach to be fired this season it seems.
At this time it seems that Xavi will be seen for AS Roma's management, I think he will be better in Serie A with Roma, and we know Xavi is also a good coach and he is quite optimal with this I think Xavi will fit in with the Roma atmosphere.

#FonsecaOut this word is very trending currently especially in Italy because the fans looks very dissapoint to see AC Milan performance under Fonseca and in Champion League against Liverpool last night actually AC Milan can leading the game by Christian Pulisic goal but unfortunately their lead didn't last long because Liverpool can equalized the score by goal from Ibrahima Konaté and the final scores is 3-1 for Liverpool win

Next match will be more hard for AC Milan because this weekend they will playing for derby match against Inter Milan and they have difficult situation because if we see based on the recent meeting between them and Inter Milan i can see AC Milan has poor records even since 2023 AC Milan always be lost from Inter Milan and if in this match AC Milan unable to win then most likely Fonseca position will be threaten and not impossible too he would be sacked

Milan played very badly in the match and I didn't see one player communicating with another. This defeat shows how unprepared the coach is in utilizing the potential of the existing players and if it continues like this then they will have problems. Playing at home should be a strength for them and that is a big motivation to get a win. Leading through a goal scored by Pulisic in the third minute did not make Milan play more consistently so that Liverpool managed to equalize and then score two other goals for victory.

Paulo Fornseca did not understand the strategy implemented by the Liverpool coach so he was unable to instruct his players to stop Liverpool's attack. This is worth evaluating because there were many mistakes made in the match, especially in the defense line.

This is a hasty decision. How will the management forget Daniele de Rossi's sacrifice and hard work last season? In his first eleven games last season, he lost just one and helped them qualify for the Europa. Maybe there might be other reasons why he was sacked besides their poor performance. There are indications that the club is considering hiring Ivan Juric and Edin Terzic. Other free coaches like Maurizio Sarri or Massimiliano Allegri can be his replacement. de Rossi might have to consider his future and maybe the Saudi Professional League will be an option for him. Roma management will have themselves to blame if they make the right choice.

It was very surprising to see Milan's performance in the match, even though they had taken the lead in the 3rd minute, but that advantage could not make Milan develop their team's game, instead they played very badly in all lines so that they had to concede 3 goals.
Seeing Milan's performance at the beginning of this season, it is clear that their performance under their new coach is still not well organized and I think the steps taken by AC Milan have not gotten better, on the contrary.

I am not highlighting only Milan's defense line, because in my opinion all AC Milan lines have not played well and so far Paulo Fornseca has failed to develop the AC Milan team.

Even I don't think De Rossi can help Roma too much like winning titles, this decision is too tough from Roma boss. But it's bitter life and coach management job is never easy. De Rossi loves this club and he spent so much efforts as their temporary then official head coach and he has nothing to regret with what he has done with them. No title but at least he left some impression as a head coach of Roma and revived some sweet memory with this club like years ago as a player for them.

This is a hasty decision. How will the management forget Daniele de Rossi's sacrifice and hard work last season? In his first eleven games last season, he lost just one and helped them qualify for the Europa. Maybe there might be other reasons why he was sacked besides their poor performance.

It's a shock decision from Roma and it shows that in modern football where money is most important, it's hard to give great patience to coaches if results are not good enough. Roma by spending too much money in the summer, actually expected much more from De Rossi. Performances of Roma in first four matches in Serie A are bad, but this decision is too tough. They only lost one match and have 3 draws, and if they only win one of three draw matches, De Rossi would have been given more time in Roma.

There are indications that the club is considering hiring Ivan Juric and Edin Terzic. Other free coaches like Maurizio Sarri or Massimiliano Allegri can be his replacement.

Terzic with his experience and success in Dortmund is a better coach than De Rossi and if Terzic get appointment as a new head coach, he can help Roma in long run too. Sarri and Allegri are other good choices for Roma and between them, I would like to see Allegri in AS Roma, not Sarri. They have tradition of playing beauty football and Sarri can satisfies this demand but success with Mourinho shows that, titles are more important and Allegri can help Roma better with his philosophy.

de Rossi might have to consider his future and maybe the Saudi Professional League will be an option for him. Roma management will have themselves to blame if they make the right choice.    

I really don't think so and he will try to manage another club in Italy rather than move to Saudi Professional League. He will consider a movement to Saudi Arabia if there is no offer from Italian club in coming months.

Passion for the game has failed Daniele, maybe he might consider pursuing money. He was so passionate about making Roma succeed that he took the club from ninth to fifth in the table last season. Roma was knocked out of the Europa by an unbeaten team and Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen. Yet he was still sacked. The Saudi Professional League is not that bad, after all, they have some of the best coaches in the world. There is a piece of current news going around that Former Milan coach Stefano Pioli might be on the move to sign for Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr.

I almost couldn't believe the news. Because it's still too early to see a dismissal happening at the start of the season. Only 4 weeks have passed at the start of this season. And usually any team will be more patient in waiting a few more weeks to see whether developments are better or not. But Roma doesn't seem to want to take the risk of waiting any longer. So they make decisions in a hurry. I think everyone will be shocked by the news of De Rossi's dismissal. Because he didn't have much time there. And it is possible that Roma already has a more suitable replacement for the position of coach at Roma to replace De Rossi. Because I'm sure they won't make a quick decision if they don't have preparation.
But I also don't know who the coach Roma has prepared to replace De Rossi.

[Volgastallion]

Rome announced also his new stadium yesterday, really good move for them, a team like Rome needs to have his own stadium and not play in one from the goverment and shared with Lazio, about De Rossi, i said it before he needs to go, so is very good for the team, i hope they can find a much better coach for the team who has very good players.

I'm trying to find out which coach AS Roma has prepared to replace De Rossi. Because I think they must have had preparations before deciding to fire De Rossi. And it turns out it's true. Because based on the news I found, it turns out that Roma has now reached an agreement with their new coach, Ivan Jurić. who will fill the coaching bench left by De Rossi.
(Sourch: https://kalteng.tribunnews.com/2024/09/18/resmi-akhirnya-as-roma-dilatih-ivan-juric-pengganti-de-rossi-ditarget-liga-champions)
 I don't know much about Ivan Juric. But I hope AS Roma can recover under the new coaching. Although I still didn't expect that the change of coach would happen so quickly at AS Roma. But all of this is done in the interests of the team and in order to get maximum results as soon as possible.
