Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[skarais]

I see that Roma have completed the deal of Paulo Dybala finally. It is a really good transfer I believe as I said before. He has signed a three-year contract. As he is 28 years old I expect to see him being very beneficial for a few years. I have a feeling like he will start performing much better at Roma and both sides will be contented with each other. Roma have made four signings already and only one of them wasn't a free transfer. They spent only 7 million euros which were for Zeki Celik from Lille. I expect to see more signings in the coming days.

That's good, Dybala is a good player for Roma and I will support his success too. He's not too bad but maybe not very good, but anyway I think Dybala can still be relied on as a striker.

Anyway Roma will definitely try their best this season to compete with other top teams for the title. Last season did not go well for Roma, and maybe this season Mourinho will have to prove his capacity as a very good coach for Roma. About some of the other players I think it will be great because of course Roma still need to invest some money to get some new stars in their team.

This is a welcome development to Roma because they need players that can start the first half and finish the second half without getting tire of the game which Dybala is one of the player that has strength to play full game. Now that Roma has signed in some potential players in this season, showed that their coach is seriously working to improve the team to achieve next season title. Since Roma managements are willing to achieve more talented players in this season to prepare well against next season.

The signing of Dybala became a special attraction for As S Roma, where they brought in players who were already familiar with Serie A. Even though Dybala's performances at Juventus have decreased, but I believe at AS Roma he will come back again like the Dybala we know before. I feel the competition this time in Serie A will be even more different, in a competitive sense again.

By the way I see Nicolo Zaniolo get offer from Spurs, I think Mourinho needs one more striker as a form of preparation and to complete Roma's because I believe Mourinho is target the UCL position next season. Dybala's arrival gives Roma a little hope, but besides that there are concerns with the news of Zaniolo, although Zaniolo has not been impressive but he is quite active in every Roma match. It's get harder to see napoli and juventus will work hard not to get eliminated out from the top of the table, I'm looking forward to mourinho's next strategy

Frankly, I was surprised that Paulo Dybala went to Roma. It's interesting that Juventus sent him without earning any money, and that he preferred Roma. There were many better clubs to go to. He scored 15 goals last season, which can be considered an average performance. We all know he can do better. He chose Roma because he wanted to work with Mourinho, but I don't think he can win a trophy here.

Depends on which trophy we're talking about - if it's the Europa League, why not? Well, or if Roma fly out of the European League to the Conference League, then they can win it for the second time in a row  Dybala had a bad season, including due to injuries, it will be interesting to see how he spends it if his health is in order. It would be funny if he can spend the season so that Juventus will regret letting him go.

Back to Back conference champion is better than nothing lol.
Even though they are currently adding ammunition but belief for Roma is still difficult for the Scudetto and Europa League but indeed for the Conference League I think they can still do it because the level is still quite balanced for them apart from that for Dybala hopefully with a new club he can make something that was good enough that Juventus regretted it even though it was actually difficult to improve at a new club because there must be adjustments first.

That's surprising. I thought he was rumored to be having talks with Inter Milan which would have been a much more better choice if you ask me, with Manchester United and Bayern Munich looking out for a possible move. Jose Mourinho must have got something installed for him to have got him attached with the AS Roma and being an experienced coach, its also best for Paulo Dybala if he could find form with Roma haven't pushed for some glory in the just concluded season.
It's funny how Roma have fallen out of form from a champions league competing side to a conference league favourite side. Hope Mourinho could repair the damage in the team though.

[MinoRaiola]

The arrival of Paulo Dybala to AS Roma must be a breath of fresh air for them. He is expected to give something colorful to AS Roma's game. Moreover, he already knows how the competition in Serie A is, so it makes it easier for him to adapt quickly. I hope that next season AS Roma will enliven the competition for the championship ladder and not only struggle in the middle board.

I don't think they'll play for the championship, Inter and AC Milan or Juventus are more chance to win. But they will be good for a surprise. In the offesnive they have great names and also great strikers. In the defense too, but in midfield they should still change something, there I see potential. Important is that dybala now continues to play in Italy, that was his most important wish.

Although some people believe in Roma, in principle I care more about the chances of Milan, Juventus and Inter. Napoli are still statistically much better than Roma in Serie A last season, so I don't think Roma are ahead this season even if Dybala is their new signing.

Milan, Inter, Napoli and Juventus have always been in the title race for the last few seasons. So I don't think Roma have a big chance this season to thwart the current top 4 teams. It's true they had chances, but from my point of view they were no better than Napoli and the other 3 teams.

[judas]

I also don't give much chance for Roma about making it to the league title this season. However my expectation level from them to be more successful has increased quite much. They have been making good transfer moves and they seem better with Mourinho now. Their next target would be finishing the season in top four this time absolutely. They need to do their best to join the Champions League. I don't know how much successful they would be in the Europa League next season. After winning the Conference League they are among the favourites to me.

I expect to see more signings in the coming days.

Maybe it's a good deal for AS Roma, but it doesn't look so good for Dybala. Because Dybala's salary at Rome is actually lower than the salary he got at Juventus, the reason Dybala did not renew his contract at Juventus was because Dybala wanted to get a higher salary but this desire did not materialize. For that reason, I don't think Dybala is very happy playing at Roma because he basically doesn't have a club after his contract expired at Juventus at the end of June and Roma are the only team that still wants to sign Dybala and no other club. So yes, for that reason this deal is good for Roma themselves and not for Dybala, which is a shame.

Or maybe I can say that he is forced to be happy because until now after he refused a contract extension at Juventus, no big club has looked at him after Inter did not make Dybala's fate uncertain and this is a blessing in itself when Roma want him.
But it's possible in this case he can play very well with Roma because indeed at Juventus he can't really make a perfect achievement for himself.

because there are still some big clubs that can be featured apart from them.
Indeed, at this time they are adding some players to be able to compete but that is not for the title position and maybe only for the top 4 position there.
This season there are still the same clubs as Inter, Juventus, and maybe Milan (even this I'm actually quite doubtful for Milan).

There is much news out there about Roma since media are talking about Dybala's deal and how he made a clause around €20m to leave the club in case he finds something more interesting.
The only other thing that could be found is that Roma is interested in Wijnaldum but they can't afford his salary, they might bring him as loan transfer and PSG paying a part of his salary.

[emrecemsan]

Juventus were looking for a centre-back after seeing that de Ligt was about to sign for Bayern Munich. They have made their signing already too. They were in a race to sign Torino defender Bremer and they won it. The deal has been completed for a fee of 41 million euros. He is also very young for a centre-back and he is a good player. They have signed him for around half the money they have sold de Ligt to Bayern Munich. Therefore it is a very favorable agreement for them.

[SatoPrincess]

Mourinho is doing pretty well, maybe not great in my opinion because he hasn't really done anything out of the ordinary, yes they won the Conference League, but it is not a special tournament, it is the third tier in European Football, behind the CL, and UEL, so I can't call it a great achievement, remember that Roma also failed to finish in the top four last season; do not get me wrong, i am not trying to undermine Mourinho's influence on the team, but I do not think he has done too much that is worthy of excessive praise. Having said that, he is not signing players that are bad at all, I am pretty sure they will aid them next season, but l do not think they can win the Seria A next season, they will be challenging for a top four finish, but definitely not the trophy.

Roma will definitely need some money or basically just need to send some players away to open up a salary space basically. They got Dybala and that's the biggest situation, there isn't a scenario where we are talking about making a huge purchase like that without having to sell some players at all.

This is why I end up thinking how important these type of deals happen, I mean how often could Roma would be able to get Dybala type of player, he is way too talented to end up with Roma normally and that is why I think this would be the most important part. You could end up with just Dybala and also keep many great players if you are Roma, you need to make sure you balance it well enough though.

[1kodumtek7]

There was an interest by Tottenham for Zaniolo some time ago, yes. But I don't see any rumour about it now. Juventus were also among the teams interested in signing him. Zaniolo can easily be a wanted player for big teams for certain. He is a really promising winger and he is only 23 now. It can still be difficult for Roma to keep him at the team this summer. However there is a feeling inside me like he will stay for this summer. If he doesn't have any release clause then he would stay.

Zaniolo's form is getting better with Roma, it's not surprising that quite a number of teams are interested in Zaniolo in this summer's transfer market.
Apart from Tottenham, it seems AC Milan and Juventus are also reportedly very interested in getting Zaniolo. However, Roma have set an exorbitant
price for Zaniolo, with Roma wanting 50 million euros for any club looking to buy Zaniolo. This makes the club that is interested in Zaniolo until now
has not dared to make an offer to Roma, meaning that Zaniolo will most likely stay at Roma. If true until the transfer window closes and Nicolo Zaniolo
still stays at Roma, it is certain that Rome will have a very good squad. Since Roma have so far managed to bring in some good players, such as
Mile Svilar, Zeki Celik, Nemanja Matic and most recently Paulo Dybala. With the addition of several new players, Roma is expected to be able to
compete in the top 4.

They were in a race to sign Torino defender Bremer and they won it. The deal has been completed for a fee of 41 million euros. He is also very young for a centre-back and he is a good player. They have signed him for around half the money they have sold de Ligt to Bayern Munich. Therefore it is a very favorable agreement for them.

It was a quick transfer made by Juventus, when Bayern Munich officially signed de Ligt and the day after that Juventus quickly signed Bremer. Even though these two players are of different ages, they are both still relatively young and also, both have the same contract until 2027. Well, hopefully Juventus' quick transaction is the right move, because choosing players for the defense is very risky. But yes, because Bremer previously played for Torino it doesn't seem like it will take long for Bremer to adapt and it's a good thing to build chemistry on the pitch.

So yes, for that reason this deal is good for Roma themselves and not for Dybala, which is a shame.

I don't know. I just think that he must be happy because it was his choice to sign for Roma in the end. He didn't have any team that could affect his deal to Roma. You might be right about the salary topic by the way. But he wasn't performing very effectively at Juventus so I think that it is better for him to leave the team as I said before. If he starts performing better at Roma then his happiness level would increase certainly. It wouldn't be difficult for him to be a regular starting eleven player in that case.

Mourinho is doing pretty well, maybe not great in my opinion because he hasn't really done anything out of the ordinary, yes they won the Conference League, but it is not a special tournament, it is the third tier in European Football, behind the CL, and UEL, so I can't call it a great achievement, remember that Roma also failed to finish in the top four last season; do not get me wrong, i am not trying to undermine Mourinho's influence on the team, but I do not think he has done too much that is worthy of excessive praise.

You may be surprised, but Roma had no official club trophies before, except for the Fairs Cup won in 1961, which was the predecessor of the UEFA Cup and which UEFA itself does not consider an official tournament, so for Roma winning the UEFA Conference League is a significant event and the first official club trophy at the international level. Therefore, Jose Mourinho has already achieved success with the team and progress is visible. As far as I know, the management and the American owner of the club, Dan Friedkin, soberly assess their capabilities and it seems that there is no question of necessarily winning the title this season. We are talking about moving forward and I think that winning the club's participation in the Champions League next season would undoubtedly be considered by the club's management as a real goal and an achievable result.

I think Jose Mourinho has thought about this and I know he can think a few steps ahead because I feel AS Roma has now started to prepare the best players to participate in the champions league next season including the addition of Paul Dybala and several other player plans such as Georginio Wijnaldum and Natan Bernardo de Souza (Natan) is still waiting for the right time to bring them.
