Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[W Jr.]

there was total panic because the PSG players took the game by the horns and tried to win it in every way, in these games the mentality counts and whoever has the strongest one always wins, lately the Italian teams have a lack of this mentality, and it is not easy to go forward without it

True, that was definitely it.
But i don't understand what they were afraid of, i can't understand why they were afraid of a strong team, for goodness sake, but as strong as you are.
In the end you are both in the final, there must be a reason you got to the final.
I can't explain it to myself

This is generally the case in big matches. The team that can manage stress and play as usual wins. Inter came very well until the final, they even played like a final in the Barcelona match, but they were not cool-headed and successful in the final against Paris Saint-Germain. Because of this, they suffered a heavy defeat and had to dismiss the coach from the team. Paris Saint-Germain scored five goals in the final match very comfortably and became Champions League Champions. This is the difference of the team that manages the crisis well.

Napoli, AC Milan and Inter Milan are really moving very aggressively in the ongoing transfer market. So far I think Napoli also look like they have quite big ambitions for next season. After successfully getting De Bruyne for free in the transfer market, Napoli also managed to bring in Cyril Ngonge and Alessandro Buongiorno. And Napoli's moves look like they want to strengthen their defense for next season. Conte seems to realize that there are weaknesses in Napoli's back line.

Inter Milan and AC Milan are also no less quick in recruiting new players. Inter Milan even got Mehdi Taremi from Porto for free. Apart from that, Inter Milan also intends to improve their defense by bringing in a defender from AS Monaco, namely Lucien Agoume. And Inter Milan also seems to be still eyeing several other new players at the moment. I feel that next season Serie A will be even fiercer again.

Napoli seems to have big ambitions for next season, especially for competitions like the Champions League. No wonder they quickly want to form their strong team in this transfer market.
Reportedly, Milan midfielder Yunus Musah has also agreed to join Napoli, and that means Napoli next season may have some new players. They may be ambitious to appear dominant next season.

Milan still have the opportunity to revenge next but they need to train all of the players to be better and make other strategies. They can learned of what happen to them to analyze what need to change so they can perform better than before. In the future, many clubs will do their best so they must find the best method to train the players. The past is already gone but they still have their future so that is what they must prepare to take revenge. If Milan is really good enough and the club that can raise their perform, they will prove to their fans. So we can wait and see what they will do later.

AC Milan full strength football team is ready to fight against Arsenal full strength football team but Arsenal football team is favorite for that match because their head to head performance is very excellent as they won 3 matches which they played against AC Milan football team and AC Milan team could not win this match but recent performance of AC Milan team is best because that team won last 3 matches and we can expect change in stats because body language matters a lot in the new match and players could do well . Last match of AC Milan was against Monza and that team lost the match by 2 goals and that team won the match one sided.

Napoli currently has one of the best coach in the league and winning the league title with the level of competition they faced should give them the zeal to prepare for the competition they will face next season both in the champions league and their league. They need to strengthen the team especially their midfield and defense because they have a very strong attackers in the team. Napoli will have to focus more on performing better in the champions League competition and adding to the squad will help them get ready for the competition next season.

Inter Milan and Napoli they have to prepare for the Champions League next season. So it's not surprising that they really take advantage of the player transfer market quite well. Meanwhile, for AC Milan, they are also preparing their team as best as possible because they don't want to repeat the same failure as last season. AC Milan definitely wants to be able to compete again at the top of Serie A. So they have to make their squad worthy of this. They also have to support the new coach they have very well, namely by bringing in new players who can also be expected to improve the quality of the team.

However, it seems that many other teams in Serie A are not very active in bringing in new players. Or maybe they're just not in a hurry.

It seems that in the next season Napoli not only wants to chase the Scudetto, but it seems that Napoli wants a more prestigious trophy like the UCL trophy. Because in my opinion Napoli really has to increase their desire a little more, so that they can continue to develop and remain stable as a team that can compete tightly in Serie A. Because currently Napoli is no longer a team that is underestimated, because last season Napoli managed to become champions in Serie A. This proves that Napoli's quality is now different from before. Therefore, I strongly agree if Napoli fights very hard in the transfer market this time to improve their team to be even better.

Because now is the right momentum for Napoli to continue to advance even further. Then Inter Milan and AC Milan certainly don't want to lose to Napoli, especially since currently these two teams can be said to be less competitive with Napoli in Serie A. So with this, it is only natural that Inter and Milan are quite aggressive in the transfer market. Especially Milan who really had a very bad performance last season. Because Milan was only able to finish in 8th position in Serie A. So it must be quite embarrassing for a team like Milan. Because Milan is a big team that is usually able to compete in the top 4 positions in Serie A. So seeing them in 8th position feels a little surprising.

Therefore, I strongly agree if Napoli fights very hard in the transfer market this time to improve their team to be even better.

They can want to defend the Scudetto and also perform well in UEFA Champions League but this ambitious target for a next season will result in a lot of pressure on Conte and Napoli players. It's not easy for a club with limited player resource like Napoli to play well in Serie A and Champions League while I guess their main target is defending Scudetto that itself is not easy already.

By playing in Champions League and also aiming for good performances there, Napoli will be affected a lot on their performances in Serie A. With limited player resource, they will struggle to diversify their players for both competitions and in a long season, it contains high risk of exhaustion and dramatical decline in player fitness and performances. If Conte and Napoli won't prepare for it well enough since this summer and won't manage a next season carefully, they might have a very terrible season.

Cristian Chivu is the new manager of Inter. Chivu doesn't have much experience. Former Inter player and coach in the lower age categories. He had a short adventure with Parma, that's all. I guess the president of Inter doesn't value experience in this job. They went from a two-time Champions League finalist manager to a manager with only 4 months of league experience. I'm curious to see the consequences of this. It could be a fairytale or a terrible disaster for them.

of course i personally agree with Chivu being appointed as Inter Milan coach because of course Inter must have a strong reason that finally made Chivu appointed as Inter coach and of course it could be because if i am not mistaken Chivu once brought Inter u-19 to win a trophy and of course there are many others and of course there must be many other reasons why Chivu was appointed as Inter coach.

but of course Chivu's experience is not like other coaches who have certainly won many trophies. but in my opinion if compared to Inzaghi, of course Inzaghi is still better. but of course we'll just see what happens later because of course we won't know what will happen later because it's possible that Chivu will make Inter Milan even better in the coming season.

yes honestly i am also curious like you because of course in the next season we will see whether Chivu can make Inter even better or not. but if Chivu can make Inter better than this season i think it will definitely make Chivu famous and of course this will make Chivu a great professional coach.

Look, i only see very dark clouds on the horizon, i don't see any good things. As i said elsewhere. Reduced budget, coach who was a kind of reserve, maybe he's good and he surprises me.
In short, i see everything focused on saving at all costs, that way you won't get very far.

Roma usually always have a good/very good team but they rarely win something. Why? In Italy we say that it's "una piazza difficile", which we could translate as "a troubled environment" because they fans always have a lot of love for the team but also a lot of expectations because every year they hope to win something and at a certain point the pressure becomes just to much for everyone: managers, players, fans, and everything collapse. It's going to be interesting to see this team managed by Gasperini, it's his lifetime opportunity at this point.

That's why I love Italian football. What's happened that there isn't a Francesco Totti yet? An emperor like him? When I was a kid, I used to watch his plays with excitement. In fact, the Italian team always encouraged me to keep playing football every day. Plus, his long hair, lol, that's how I used to wear it, and because my wife made me cut it , I was instantly excited about Mourinho and Dybala. Now, watching their latest performance in Serie A, it's made me believe in them again.

What will happen to Serie A clubs in the 2024/25 season, clubs competing in European competitions such as UCL, UEL, and UECL, they are unable to divide their focus and concentration well. If they perform well in the domestic league, they fail in European competitions, and vice versa if they perform well in European competitions, when playing in the domestic league they perform quite badly. Likewise with what happened to Napoli this season, they were able to win the Scudetto because they did not play in any European competitions, so they could always focus their concentration and energy on every match in Serie A.

However, even so, I hope that for next season, the teams playing in European competitions, they can divide their focus well and get quite good results too. It's been a long time since I saw a single Serie A club lift a European trophy, especially in the Champions League.

Napoli prepare teams quite well for next season will participants at UEFA Champion League after success signing Kevin De Bruyne with free agent after his contract expiring, seems Antonio Conte have received his clause option with Napoli's management spending much money for signing top players and keep stay as manager for next season. Overall, Serie A teams have difficulty with financial condition and every window transfer opening not sign top players such as recent recruitment from Napoli and Milan as free agent players.

Milan so far signed Luka Modric from Madrid after his contract not extended and waiting for next transfer release will sign top players or waiting for new recruitment as free agent player. Inter Milan looks quite silent after leaving by Simione Inzhagi and new replacement Cristian Chive not announce yet for new recruitment.

Napoli must be aware of how tight the competition is between other teams next season, not only in the Champions League, which certainly has strong teams. Even in Serie A, other teams are also preparing to strengthen their teams. Of course, Napoli will prepare their team for the competition next season. That's what they showed by being quite active in the transfer market this time. They are not only satisfied with their achievements last season.

[ITExpert]

I also don't understand that point of view. People are looking at only what happened at the end. Yeah it wasn't a good ending for Inter in the Serie A and Champions League. But these guys were still one of the most successful 2 teams in both tournaments.  

Inter Milan is a team with two trophies titles. And in serie A their loss of trophy is considered as not a good team by many of the viewers and fans. But the thing under discussion is why people conclude their point of view on winning and losing the trophy. So this thought is entirely associated with our mindset because people and we also make perceptions about any team on the final results of the league that they win or lose. But those people who are very greatly know's  the inter milan team have the  things in their minds about this team, how good and strong the team is. Because there were things that may happen but not the part of the nature of this team. Their consistent behaviour is admirable.

Overall, Serie A teams have difficulty with financial condition and every window transfer opening not sign top players such as recent recruitment from Napoli and Milan as free agent players.

The way Napoli started signing players in this transfer season, it shows that they are trying to strengthen their squad more. Getting Kevin De Bruyne will help the team next season, he is a creative midfielder that can create a lot of assists to Lukaku and other attackers in the team; and if the management release money for more signing, I am sure with the experience Antonio Conte have, he will sign some important players that will make the squad more stronger against any competition next season because they need squad depth to be able to survive next season.

Milan so far signed Luka Modric from Madrid after his contract not extended and waiting for next transfer release will sign top players or waiting for new recruitment as free agent player. Inter Milan looks quite silent after leaving by Simione Inzhagi and new replacement Cristian Chive not announce yet for new recruitment.

Milan need to also sign more players because their last season’s performance wasn’t good enough for them, the fans are not happy and some players deserve to leave the team.
Same as Inter Milan, they even tried last season, but they couldn’t win the two major titles they fought for even though they made it to the finals, therefore, aging more players will help them next season.

For me it will not be a problem because the tight schedule for big teams of course they will be able to manage their energy in each match. Do you know a great coach will be able to manage the right rotation when they face important matches. Well, Serie A is now more behind for me, the strong reason is of course because other teams have strong strengths such as Real Madrid and several other big teams.

Well, like the Champions League final, of course I didn't expect PSG to be able to beat Inter Milan with a big score, but that's what happened. I think Serie A teams have to improve a lot to be able to compete stronger in the coming season.

This is not surprising because Conte is a coach who has great ambition, that's why yesterday it was widely reported that he would return to Juventus because there he would get a lot of support that he wanted. But now it seems that Napoli's management has realized this so they support what Conte wants so they can compete next season.

Conte realizes that this season they managed to win the Serie A trophy because they have the advantage of not having a tight schedule like Inter. So Napoli's journey next season will not be easy with the players they currently have, Conte needs to bring in a lot of players because next season they will also play in the Champions League so that it will automatically make their schedule very tight.

[el kaka22]

Napoli doesn't have the money, winning UCL requires to build a team that is better than not only everyone in Italy, but all of Europe. Lets be honest, even the fact that they won Serie A  this season was pure luck. Why do I say it pure luck? Because in 10 out of 9 times, teams get more points than what Napoli did, so Napoli would have been second place or even third place in almost every season. Only in some very miracle cases where a team could win Serie A with what Napoli did this season.

When you are one of the lowest point champions of just Italy, dreaming of being champions of all of Europe makes no sense at all. You would need to spend 100 million on transfers, or do that often in most cases. Loo kat salary cap of Real Madrid and Napoli and see the difference.

It's going to be interesting to see this team managed by Gasperini, it's his lifetime opportunity at this point.

For what reason should Roma win anything? I mean Serie A, not a cup or some minor title. They are too far behind the big four in terms of budget. And if it wasn't the big four but one club or two at most, there would be a chance because sometimes even two clubs have slumps. But the probability of four clubs going into crisis at once is practically zero. Roma are where they should be, but their management acts like they should at least be contenders for gold every season if they haven't won it. It's ridiculous.

[BitcoinHunt3r]

Napoli must be aware of how tight the competition is between other teams next season, not only in the Champions League, which certainly has strong teams. Even in Serie A, other teams are also preparing to strengthen their teams. Of course, Napoli will prepare their team for the competition next season. That's what they showed by being quite active in the transfer market this time. They are not only satisfied with their achievements last season.

When Napoli win the Serie A title then their target will increase to the Champions League that's why they are active in the transfer window this season, if Napoli just want to compete in Serie A I think the current squad is capable. I am not underestimating other teams but from what we see at the moment it seems that other teams are not so active in bringing in new players to face the new season, I know Juventus, Roma and some other teams are looking new players but so far there has been no significant movement.

For next season I still favor Napoli and Inter Milan but a little doubtful about Inter Milan regarding the issue of fixed matches. Do you see potential for other teams to catch up to these two teams? in my personal opinion, there aren't any yet, because I use the transfer window as a reference.
