Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[coinlocket$]

Come on guys, Donnarumma is gone now. The story is over, whether you like it or not AC Milan has now lost him and PSG has secured one of the best goalkeepers in the world for quite some time.

Thye has only 9 goalkeepers right now in Paris. They still need 2 to get a full squad.
Milan lost a lot of money refusing 60-80 million 2 years ago for Donnarumma.

They did the same error with Calhanoglu free agent to Inter and they are doing the same error with Kessie.

Donnarumma wanted to leave AC Milan for a longtime already refusing couple of years in a row to extend is contract. PSG grabbed an amazing transfer for free. Milan will be in a lot of trouble for the upcoming season with not many great players. Also no big signing from them just a lot of players leaving the club.

I would say its the pocket that made him switch to French side. Donnarumma was reported to be seeking some pretty high wages and AC Milan weren't able to give him that. They though still tried which shows how much the player meant to them but unfortunately they didn't came into agreement and PSG fulfilled his wage demands and he moved there. Its just PSG knows how to do business and they are in much comfortable financial condition as most of the big teams.

Exactly! That was the reason why he chose to go to PSG in my opinion too. Milan weren't able to meet his demands as they didn't even win a single title in the last season. So, the team didn't get really much money at the end of the season. And covid-19 period has also affected the finances of clubs. As Donnarumma wasn't going to get what he wanted, he decided to leave Milan. I hope that he becomes happy at PSG and plays as the main goalkeeper there.

@Joca97 AC Milan have signed Giroud and while many will say he’s old, I yet feel that he’ll thrive in Italian League and he’ll be able to score lots of goals. Furthermore the transfer window is yet open, and I believe they’ll strengthen by buying one or two player’s as the squad could use some fresh arrivals.

A good goalkeeper is a half of a team power and AC Milan will face challenge in the new season. If the new goalkeeper can bring confidence to defenders, AC Milan might keep fighting for Scudetto.

They also lost Hakalnoglu to Inter Milan.

The main problem why AC Milan lost their chance to become scudetto last season because their defender not really good, Donnarumma is good for Milan, but not supported by good defender. Losing Calhanoglu and Donnarumma, is really bad for Milan, thats why I'm not sure they will be finish on top 3 next season. I wish, Giroud and Maignan can bring something good for Milan on their first season as Rossonero, at least makes my prediction wrong.

Have they gotten replacement for the players that left??
They'll concede more Goals if they don't add to there defense.
They've got Good attacking players,i tipped em for the Italian Seria A but they couldn't clinched it.

Players comes and goes,this is football for you so expect anything from playery who haven't added any Trophy to there name.
Donnarumma out Olivia Giroud in,so teams should make good use of there players when they still have them.

You are right. The old players will leave and new players will come to the team. The team needs to be sorted out with new players and plans have to be sorted out on how to stabilize the team and improve performance. Donnarumma is gone there is no need to think too much about it.

there are times when removing old players can bring a big problem for the club, let's see an example of barcelona that had good old players but when it started to remove them, the club began to drop in quality of play and began to have bad results, the case of the real madrid Is the same thing... great players have gone through the real madrid and whenever they have an ideal team they make a mess of selling the players and then lowering the quality of the game

AC Milan has signed Mike Maignan to replace Gianluigi Donnarumma as their main goalkeeper, statistically the game of the two goalkeepers has almost the same quality and it can be said that the performance of the former Lile goalkeeper is not much different from Donnarumma last season and In my opinion, AC Milan supporters need not worry, Maignan will not play under Donnarumma shadow, so he will be able to become AC Milan main goalkeeper next season.

[acquafredda]

Maignan, Giroud, Brahim Diaz and Ballo Tourè. Pioli's AC Milan continues to expading its market campaign in view of next season: in the next hours the Spanish striker and the Monaco fullback should put their signature on the new contract, but that's not the end of it.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan would also be looking for an attacking midfielder, a replacement for Calhanoglu and another striker: the main names on the grocery would be those of Nikola Vlasic of CSKA Moscow and Kaio Jorge of Santos.

Didnt expect such a quick reaction from Milan managment to buy so fast so many replacements. They acted really good so far. But i think they will need to buy a really big superstar so they can compete for the scudeto and to try and get far in the champions league. Pioli is a good coach and will make an amazing tactical team like last season when no one expected that Milan would lead the league for so long

I feel like they kind of deserve it, no? I mean they had a chance to spend a lot of money, make a big loss financially but then have a great team and then fight for a title for the past few years, only thing they needed to do was spending a lot of money and I understand that in football there are many people who do not want to spend a lot of money on their teams, like look at Inter and how the owner wants to sell some players to cover the financial loss they had from the pandemic season, instead of eating up that loss and keep fighting for a bigger chance, maybe a back to back.

If you do not spend money and then you can't earn more, first you have to make a huge loss, be in financial trouble, but have an awesome team, then you start to get a lot more success and thanks to that you end up in profit eventually, that is how it should be like. Look at Chelsea, they finished 4th in the league, they lost the fa cup, but they won UCL and now they are offering 150 million to Haaland because they know they need to keep growing.

These players will be a good addition to the milan team but they need more they lack a play maker and some good wing players and another striker to replace giroud when he is not available plus with donnaruma departure they need another goalkeeper.

They need all those additions to their squad if they're serious about winning the seria A next season. They came very close last season but their title got hampered along the way as they ran out of juice. So it's a good thing that they're on a shopping spree and bringing in fresh legs. I wasn't too happy to see them let Donnarumma go but Maignan's move was a wise one and I'm glad they took it. I hope these new signings get comfy quickly with the rest of the team. The league doesn't start until August 22, so that should give them ample amount of time to adjust.

Milan actually is the only team who is spending money in this session but they bought only Giroud.
They spend nearly 50m€ but for the more part is payment for keeping players who were on loan the previous year.

Until now I think we haven't a single-player bought over 20m € in Italy.

It all depends on the level of the budget for the current season and whether this budget includes the purchase and high salary of a new superstar Milan made quite a lot of progress last season and even claimed the league title for a long time, so such a reaction and current transfers show that the club intends to consolidate all this, has serious ambitions for the new season and intends to develop further. By the way, a potential superstar, the champion of EURO 2020 and the best player of the tournament was already in the Milan club, but the club itself did not want to pay the requested amount as a salary and Donnaruma moved to Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent

[blue Snow]

I saw Italy doesn't have a gambling sponsor in the front shirt, that's different with premier league with a lot of gambling sponsors.



When I saw in match schedule derby Milano happen in Giornata-12, that classical derby is very exciting to me when this pandemic doesn't exist, people in a stadium smoldering with fireworks and crowded.

Milan lost its key players. Donnarumma, Çalhanoğlu were important players. They did not receive any transfer fee from either of them. The players left at the end of the contract. However, Milan had to pay a transfer fee to the newly recruited players. They have spent around 50 M€ so far. They still have to buy players instead of Çalhanoğlu.  If they wanted to build a stronger squad this year, it would have been better if they convinced Donnarumma and Çalhanoğlu to stay in the squad.

[MusaMohamed]

Maybe Serie A have regulation about gambling sponsor for every club and looks few years ago not any club have gambling site logo on their jersey. I think is good because how to keep away from gambling site and match keep fair play without any drama happen in Asian with many club. Most excited match I am waiting with AS Roma how they can speak up under Jose Mourinho as new coach for gialorossi, will they can finish on top table or not.

There are a few big events in Serie A relate to gambling, result exchanges, etc. The FIGC will try their best with governments to keep football leagues in Italy as cleanest as possible. Regulations on football players and don't allow them to join gambling are good for Serie A.

AS Roma with Mourinho might play better and get one position in top four but I don't think Mr. Special will help them to win Scudetto immediately.

AC Milan have bad preparation to expand contract with key players. Donna and Calhanoglu are very important with the club. I don't know how they let it happened but they all left the club with free transfers.

Let Donna joining PSG is not bad, for him and for Azzurri but let Calhanoglu joining Inter Milan is weird. Inter are in financial problems and AC Milan should not let their key players to join Inter Milan.

I know there are players were exchanges between two Milan clubs but AC Milan this time are building their team and should keep Hakan.

Donnarumma they could not hold for a long time, this is a rising star and his payment will soon be very expensive for middle-class clubs. But of course it was a mistake to let Donaruma go just like that at the end of the contract. Milan already had a lot of problems at the end of the season, I think the next season will be even more difficult for Milan.
