Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[$crypto$]

CR7 has always been a left-sided striker and even the game is very bracelet where CR7 can take advantage of such a good situation and therefore to become a CR9 I think it is better replaced with Dybala or other strikers.

I do not know whether Sarri's offer will be accepted by CR7 or not because it is difficult in my opinion CR7 to be at the forefront because of the ball feeds of all CR7 who always contribute.

Ronaldo always love to play on the wing. He is good at making some flanks at good time going unnoticed and do skills. He is not suitable for a forward role at all. I mean the guy is good at finishing but he is best and suitable in left wing position only. Though it depends on him to accept. Doesn't Juventus have any forward other than Higuain to fill in while he is injured or maybe find someone else to play out of the usual position.

If Cristiano Ronaldo is on the wing then I think the attack to the opponent is able to be set by him because the bait is so accurate that it can redeem the opponent with the skills that are mastered then I think it is not suitable to be at the front too, then who will arrange the attack if Ronaldo is in Higuain's position?

With his agility despite being on the wing but Ronaldo still when there is a ball approaching it will definitely be at the front and therefore Ronaldo on the wing is very important.

[coinlocket$]

Some reports seem to suggest that the front 3 will remain the same. But Khedira should begin from the start with Pjanic being on the bench, and that Cuadrado will start instead of Danilo on the right. I would rather see Tek in goal but I am pretty sure it will be Buffon again.

Regarding the Ronaldo as striker dilemma. Since Higuain is injured, Ronaldo is the closest the team currently has to a central striker. The problem is he doesn't like playing as one. He will have to suck it up for the next few days.  

Yeah, Buffon is the Coppa Italia goalkeeper, Juventus always did this thing with the second goalkeeper in the Cup.
The problem for Ronaldo and generally in this Juventus is the missing of a player behind Ronaldo Dybala in a sort of 4-3-1-2

The one could be Zaniolo before his knee injury.

If Cristiano Ronaldo is on the wing then I think the attack to the opponent is able to be set by him because the bait is so accurate that it can redeem the opponent with the skills that are mastered then I think it is not suitable to be at the front too, then who will arrange the attack if Ronaldo is in Higuain's position?

Is this a sign that there is a decline in the performance of Ronaldo whose age has begun to age ?
I dont think he looks weak in the wing position either left or right. But these two positions are suitable for those who are very agile and young besides Ronaldo. Its time for Ronaldo to be the center striker and because he has to adjust his strength to the end of the match in my opinion.

Everyone has been called for the final.

Maybe it could be because now it is 35 years old but Ronaldo's fitness is like that of a 25-year-old young man and he remains his physical health so that in 3 seasons he is still strong on my left or right, but Ronaldo is applied everywhere quite well because he is indeed a very skilled striker who is able to score with his lightning kick.

We'll see if he will continue to be a bright attacker or become an attacking wing.

[coinlocket$]

Start in 5 minutes, good game.

This is the formation for Juventus. Meh still Pjanic on starting XI

Congrats on Napoli for winning the Coppa Italia!
Not the best match ever played. Both teams had some chances and Napoli had a big chance on the end of regular time. So penalties it was (always fun to watch) and Napoli came out as winner (4-2).

Didn't watch the match but thought that Juventus gonna make it. The first 2 penalties of Juve were missed, one of it by Dybala... Although it is a win by penalty kicks but congratulations to Napoli!

I have never thought that Napoli can win against Juventus in the final match. It is a surprising win of Napoli even they made it in penalty shootouts. Who knows the defeat in Coppa Italia is a signal of the end of Juventus domination in Italy over nearly one decade. The race to Serie A title is so tight between Juventus and Lazio, let's see.

Missing first 2 penalties is never good because it results in huge pressure on next players who are responsible for the third and fourth rounds.

Congratulations Napoli for the first title they have after many decades, in Italy.

it is difficult to predict which team will perform and how after a long and tiring break. Juventus may not have reached a sufficient level in the preparation process. But we cannot say that this affects their dominance. Only one battle lost, the war continues.

@hd49728 it was indeed a boring match and I had expected more from Juventus, but maybe you’re right under Sarri leadership they may just loose the league title too, as he’s yet to win a domestic title in his managerial career. @vycl87 Juventus have constantly underperformed this year and if Sarri fails to win the league title, then he’ll probably be sacked, and my gut feeling tells me that even he knows it that he’ll be sacked if he doesn’t win the league title.

Well, they didn't actually win, though. They did exactly as they have done throughout the campaign, try and wear down bigger opponents and settle for a penalty shootout. They got to the finals by drawing too. Ronaldo and Juventus have been poor in several games now (relative to what they should be producing).

Ronaldo and Juventus both fail to do any goal in two matches its mean next games are not easy for them and we are going to be have some tough competition in Serie A for title from Inter Milan.

Juventus has lost two finals with Ronaldo automatically making him to loss two consecutive fginals for the first time ever. As a fan, I'm beginning to think it was a mistake for him coming to Italy. Before his arrival, Juventus has been very dominant so either the problem is from him (Ronaldo) not fitting well into the playing system of Juventus to bring the best out of him or Sarri bad luck has followed him back to Italy.

Sarri isn't known for winning medals, Chelsea (hazard) single handling gave him his first title then he taught he could get more by joining a dominant club lol.

[Pmalek]

Possession-wise Napoli didn't dominate Juventus the way I thought they would. They are like the Barcelona of Italy in that sense but Juventus had plenty of possession last night, unfortunately they have no central point in their midfield to gain an advantage. I am slowly getting sick of Pjanic's hiding mentality and lack of fitness. The dude can't play for 60-70 mins, which isn't acceptable at today's standards.

Ronaldo can't play as a central striker because he isn't willing to do physical battle with defenders. The only time he has an advantage over defenders is when he attacks the ball in the air. But that is what happens when you rely on Higuain alone and have absolutely no backup in case he becomes unavailable. Getting rid of Mandu and Kean is biting us in the ass. I saw a post elsewhere that says that Juventus failed to score in two consecutive matches for the first time since 2015. That says a lot...

First, I'm not sure that Juventus will win in the final after Ronaldo's failure against Milan and after knowing the final results of this final match, I don't think it's surprising that Juventus can't even give good results even though it was from a penalty kick. Furthermore, from the beginning Ronaldo joined Juventus also I was not sure that Juventus would get better with Ronaldo, and at least at this time it was proven that Ronaldo was so difficult to be the best at Juventus. That way, I'm also sure this season the Serie A title will belong to Lazio, let's look forward to it.

[coinlocket$]

The time when they will sack Sarri it will always be too late.

Always told you Sarri is a mediocre coach, he can't stay in a big team.

[BIT-BENDER]

I think internazionale Milano gave in all they got, being down in the first leg made they showed character by taking the lead but lost it when Napoli drew level with them, congratulations to Napoli on their qualification to the final, but the would meet a strong opposition in the shape and form of juventus. I predict a full time draw and penalties will settle it with Napoli victorious. football has Really been missed.

I would not say I deserve a medal right now because all the medals in the world now should go to the health and Frontline workers risking it all so we can stay alive and enjoy our passions, but I would accept one if I was giving -smiles-.
I was spot on about my prediction on the match between juventus and Napoli -coppa italia finials- which ended Napoli winning after full time draw and the Match settled in penalties

I am afraid they will do so.I read in an Italian social media that fans are revolted against Cristiano mostly by saying that he wants to win the golden ball and he doesn’t score from an eternity now,we want to win the Champions but we cannot even win Coppa Italia anymore.Based on this I think there will be “victims” with the first one being Sarri.

Let ignore CR7. We talked about him too much already. Yesterday final match is a great one for Gigi Buffon. Do you notice that Buffon have still performed so well in Juventus goal?

He is very determinant and control the game so well. I don't know how many seasons Buffon will play for Juventus as their second goal keeper till his retire day. If Gigi Buffon decides to play for another smaller club, he will be able to play as first goalkeeper till 45 years old at least. Gigi is so amazing goalkeeper, a real asset for Italy football.
