Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Iranus]

Milan played a home match against Lazio yesterday. I really enjoyed watching the match. Lazio had a bad form before this match and they really wanted to win here. They did whathever they can. But Milan had the last word by scoring their 3rd goal and they won the match 3-2. Milan are the only team unbeaten in the league now. 

I also enjoyed the match very much. Expecting such a match from Milan, but I didn't think Lazio would play so well. They have fought great against a tough opponent. Although they lost the match. As a Spectator I am very happy to see this type of game.

Wait wait.. depend

it all depends on Ibrahimovic .. if he is fine then Milan will win
whether he is ill or not in the right mood are good problems for Milan
You will see

build team around a player is easy, but have a big point of fail, the central player

Milan is doing fine until now but they dropped in performance and risk losing or at least drawing, if not vs Benevento then maybe vs Juve then Inter could jump to the first place.
Napoli is a joke, can't understand what they are doing, first draw after 12 games vs which team? vs Torino, one of the worst team so far... Atalanta missing points easily too.. The gap is becoming significant between them and Milan's teams

Chalhanoglu was again a hero for AC Milan. He managed to provide assist and 1 goal in the match against Lazio. It is unfortunate if AC Milan does not succeed in extending a player who has contributed greatly to AC Milan this season. He has adapted to Pioli's strategy and can do well with other players on the pitch. A good signal for AC Milan and in my opinion it is enough to be taken into consideration in extending the contract.

I haven't read whether Calhanoglu agrees to a new contract. I only know that they are still negotiating to extend the contract. The rumors  club is asking for 3 million euros while Calhanoglu is asking for 6 million euros. In addition, I heard that Manchester United and Juventus are interested in Calhanoglu, they are ready to compete for the services of a player who is only 28 years old. If Milan really wants him to stay, then it looks like they have to raise the price of a new contract.

Atalanta 2 - 2 Bologna

atalanta could have won that game with some comfort, they would be wasting many opportunities and when I thought that at least the game would end with a victory for atalanta and that I would win my bet, I am surprised by the disgrace that Bologna managed to score 2 goals in less than 12 minutes. Is something disappointing, very disappointing

You are right. Lazio players have played well and did their best efforts, but they are not lucky to win the match. Just look at the stats, even Lazio is better than Milan in "shot on target". However, Milan cannot be defeated, they are lucky enough to score in injury time (90+2').

Milan are the only team unbeaten in the league now. 

Yep, Milan is the unbeaten team so far. They can win even Ibra gets injured. They show us that they have a strong mental and doesn't depend on Ibra. Milan has improved their playing to a higher level. On the other hand, Milan players have a big motivation to win in all matches this season.

Atalanta 2 - 2 Bologna

The only problem of Atalanta is its consistency, they can win 5-0 against every team but they can also lose 3-0 + versus every team.

It is a mid-range team and they will not ever be a big team since his president puts the money in his pocket instead of reinvesting them, so soon or later they will fall back again in the leaderboard, which can be 1 year, 2 years of 5.

I didn't watch the game so I don't really know which of the two sides played better. From what I know, Atalanta had a good lead over Bologna during the game but lost it in the last couple of minutes. In comparison to Atalanta's last season performance, this season hasn't gone well for them so far. I was tempted to pick Atalanta to win but decided not to push through with it based on their recent performances which has been inconsistent so far.

So I picked Napoli instead since they were playing at home but it didn't span out well as Napoli only managed to get a point from that game.

Atalanta has good attacking abilities but they sometimes waste too many opportunities to score and they have many holes in their defense system. Their tactics can help they win big but also can lose big. In bad days, they will lose big or if fortunate enough they will be able to get a draw.

My bets are correct. LOL.

3 points for Inter Milan, 3 points or a draw for Atalanta (I bet a draw for Atalanta) and a draw for a match between AC Milan and Lazio.

AC Milan is strong physically and mentally. They won the match with very late goal from Hernandez. It is not the first match in Serie A 2020 - 2021 they manage to score late goals and get 1 point or 3 points at the end. It is a characteristic of champions, LOL.

Roma moves to top 3 and Juventus drops to 6th position with one left match (with Napoli). If Juventus get 3 points from Napoli, they will have same total points as of AS Roma.

I'm a Milan fan, but honestly it can't always go so well with a limited number of players. for now Pioli is working miracles but this cannot last for the whole season. In February the cups will return, Milan will have the Italian Cup and the Europa League, too many matches with strong opponents, reinforcements are needed.
He played well with Lazio yesterday, after scoring 2 goals he risked losing and then scored the winning goal in injury time, he also had a bit of luck

Pioli does his management so well to replace injured players with young players and too luckily for him, they played well and even better than I can imagine. It is a bright future for AC Milan. Scudetto in this season or not it is not the biggest attention for Milan. They are building up their team and future.

Daniele Maldini, I am waiting for his more impressive matches with Milan to keep up his family contributions in the club, after his grandfather Cesare Maldini, his father Paolo Maldini.

[masulum]

I haven't read whether Calhanoglu agrees to a new contract.

Yes, It's not meet a agreement atm, as I say both Milan and Hakan still in negotiation. From the latest news, I have read, there a chance for Milan to kept Hakan.

In other news, AC Milan maybe buy 3 players in January,

1 Defender, with option: Mohamed Simakan (Strasbourg), Ozan Kabak (Schalke 04), or Jerome Boateng (Bayern Munchen)

1 Midfielder with option: Boubakary Soumare (Lille), Luis Alberto (Lazio), or Papu Gomez (Atalanta)

1 striker with option: Memphis Depay (Lyon), Gianluca Scamacca (Genoa) or Luka Jovic (Real Madrid)

Pioli is the one who is making a difference this season while all the players perfectly integrated with the way the coach like playing. With Ibra back in a few days, Milan will really show some great football moving forward. I wonder if there will be the milanese derby for Scudetto between Inter and Milan, because I do not see other teams able to keep up their pace

[coinlocket$]

I'm a Milan fan.

Now I see why you spread s**t at Juventus anytime  .

Milan deserves the 1st spot, If Juventus will end not winning the league I hope Milan will win over Inter or in the end I hope Napoli will with 1 point over Milan or Inter so the rest of SerieA maybe will woke up against the mafia Lotito-Delaurent instead of put always Juventus in the middle of every s**t.

If Juventus are the scudetto, then the Italian League will look the same as the previous season. even in the end the Top 3, filled by Milan and Inter. The public (except Juventus fan) wants a new champion, this will increase the enthusiasm of all teams to be better, because the new champions will make another clubs more stronger and play with confidece when meet Juventus.. I really believe, this will also make the competition of Milan, Inter, Juve, Napoli, Atalanta and Roma in trying to win the title next season more interesting, and Serie-A no longer just for Juve.

[CLS63]

There was a match between Sampdoria and Sassuolo last Wednesday. It was a really tough match for both teams. Although Sampdoria did whatever they can (they had 26 shots which was insane), Sassuolo managed to win 3-2 here. Sassuolo are really going good this season. They have had a decent performance. I wonder whether they will maintain this form and finish the league at the top places.

I'm a Juventus fan since the era of Del Piero, but this season I want to see new champion.
Frankly speaking, I started to dislike Juventus since they took Pirlo as the coach so I want to see new Champion and see Pirlo get sacked by the end of this season.
Having one team only dominating the league for several years is not really attractive for a Soccer League.
As a soccer fan, it will be much more interesting to see a competitive league instead of a league which is dominated by one team only even though I'm the a fan of that team.

One thing is for sure bro rumors will always be rumors whether or not it is a local or foreign source I even have a felling that 90% of the time they are the ones who are starting the rumors without any source and is just hoping that it will grow and just become a possibility. This is how football news media work they will link players and team heavily but when the transfer window opens you won't hear a thing, you won't even see both parties having in contact with each other.

You are not a true fan if you do not win! I want to dominate every year, demolish the opponent.
In Italy too much s**t is spread every time against Juventus, the other teams do not deserve anything.

The problems of Juve started with Sarri. They did a mistake assuming him.
Juventus this year is younger, new and they are doing better than last year. IMHO.

At the start of the season, we got players with COVID and broken players... In the last 2 games, we got robbed by the referee and we have 1 win canceled against Napoli AGAINST EVERY existent rule.

They can sound like excuses but I see a better Juve now compared to the last year.

Milan's problem is always the same: money.
They have inherited huge debts and can't spend that much on the transfer market, but there are many free players who could be picked up at no cost.
Papu Gomez would be a dream, but I think it costs too high. Atalanta say that the offers start at 10 million euros, but I think Inter will offer much more

It is true that AC Milan's finances are not as big as Juventus or Inter Milan, so AC Milan has to find good players at low prices. The best solution is
to bring in players who have run out of contracts, so they can get free players. But also be careful when recruiting free players, not all free players
are eligible to sign.

Papu Gomez is very suitable to play for AC Milan but unfortunately the price is too expensive and also Papu Gomez is more interested in joining
Juventus. If in the end it fails to bring in new players, no problem. Because I see with the current player, Stefano Pioli is able to make AC Milan
become a strong team and difficult to beat. I am optimistic that AC Milan can win the Serie A trophies this season.
