Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[fullhdpixel]

If you look at the achievements of United after the dismissal of Mourinho (in 4 years 0 titles with a stronger squad), then I would not say that his work there was unsuccessful, everyone just got used to a much higher bar in his performance. Tottenham, he also initially raised almost from the bottom of the standings. Mourinho is a strong coach and now he has some opportunities at Roma (I don't think it's about scudetto) and I hope he can use them.

I do not know
I don't agree very much, I don't judge Mourinho well as a coach
but maybe I am wrong, since I am not competent in the matter
why do you think he's a good coach?

I have seen others, in my opinion, better than him

There is no doubt he was one of the best coach in Europe but sadly recently his performance is not good and having just average results which is bringing him down, and now he is not good enough as coach, but recently he is doing again good job and AS Roma is in good shape even still not strong contender for title or any better place but with current situation in Italian League he can stay at top four because few teams are unpredictable, and they can take good advantage of this all.

We have too many better coaches in market which are giving better results and have much better strategies and system instead of Mourinho, but one thing is sure hard work must give you good rewards and right now he is doing good job with Roma which can give him better options in the future.

I think it is very difficult to predict which players will be the starting line-up in this friendly. But I would say that Juventus might field all the players and give the other players a chance to show what they are capable of. It should be so, that pre-season matches should be with a strong team, in order to measure their strength.

That's what you do with a friendly, you get all the players in your club to get a bit of a minutes. Both it allows you to get them to match shape and they would be able to play with form when the games that mean something that starts, but also you get to see all the players doing a good job out there, they will play their hardest on these games because it will be the deciding factor for the league games and all other important games, if you play awesome here and then you will get a spot in the roster, if you play horrible then it would be a big asterisk next to your name and you would have a few more chances at best, hence everyone will want to play, and friendlies are the only games you are allowed to put 20 players in a single game.

Pogba probably needs surgery on his knee, if it will be it will be a 1-2 months stop.

It seems it is an old problem already present in the Manchester United days.

That doesn't sound good for Juventus. And then the question is whether he can really play again after 2 months. And even if he can be used again after 2 months, you will miss at least something like 6 matches, which can be of great importance if you leave a lot of points there. This team needs Pogba badly, last year it was bad and now De Ligt has also left in the rear. We have to hope that Pogba will recover quickly because that man can play football incredibly well, only due to many injuries and motivation problems he went through a somewhat lesser period.

The good news is that the transfer window is still open so they can look a player that can cover for him in a short time frame or long term, I believe he is a good inclusion to the team,they need players if they want to gain power back from the Milan's club, another side that this injury will affect is the France national team, this will affect their plans for the world cup because he is a key player in that midfield,he might return on time but would it be enough to get back to fully fit before the world cup.

He gets things done. Has won many titles and is a public figure. There are some things he maybe too adamant about and polarizes the squads with his behavior but in the end, what's important is winning trophies. Which he has a huge repertoire of.

Yes, at least, he reached several trophies during his coach in Man United. He could also manage the squad quite better although it is not for a long time. But, we cannot compare him to the coaching legend of man United, because there is a far gap between it. But as a coach, Mourinho really has proven his best in Man United during the seasons.

Juventus must move quickly to immediately find a replacement for Pogba in the transfer market that is still open, 2 months of injury is not
a short time. Pogba will miss some important matches, so Juventus really need to address this issue as soon as possible before Serie A starts.
Moreover, the midfielder is a fairly important position, even though Juventus still has quite a lot of players who can replace Pogba.
But the midfielders that Juventus have maybe only Rabiot and Locatelli are playing well enough, so indeed the best solution is to bring in
at least one more midfielder to replace Pogba. But if it fails to bring in new players, there is no other choice Juventus must rely on
the existing midfielders to wait for Pogba to recover from injury.

In any case, the indicator of the success and strength of the head coach of the club is the presence of titles, but it is with this that Mourinho has no shortage and, with all his desire, Mourinho cannot be called a coach of one club, as can be said about some coaches. Jose has achieved success with different clubs in different championships. Let Mourinho's business has not been as successful lately as it used to be, but let's not forget that the light has not converged on one Mourinho and there are many other talented coaches with talented players in their clubs who also claim their share of the pie and have every right to do so and are now succeeding. Therefore, with any attitude to the very character of Mourinho, there is no reason to doubt his coaching strength, because he has regularly achieved success before.

That was very upsetting news. Everyone was waiting to see him playing and winning with the team and he ended up with a knee injury and probably a surgery before the starting of the season.. He will miss like 6 games in Serie A and 2 in CL.
Meanwhile Rabiot will stay in Juve and replace him in these two months.

Pogba has had knee problems since he was at Manchester United. but maybe the effects of the injuries suffered were not as severe as now. and now Juve have to accept the problem of not being able to play Pogba in a few games at the start of the season. indeed a loss, but hopefully Juventus can overcome it with some substitutes who are more ready to replace Pogba. although his quality may not be like Pogba in terms of destroying the opponent's defense.

Has pogba already confirmed it? I saw that if he has not yet meet with the specialist to see the condition of his knee. It's sad to see that happened, he will be missing the pre season in dallas. So far pogba was always facing various problem even when he was at the machester united as well.

he has not back in turin. i didn't see any confirmation about he will be doing surgery. I hope that he can recover from his injury before the serie a will be started.

Even if he is not better, in fact, he got a confederacy trophy. only Tottenham he doesn't get because got fired in the middle session if continues, I believe he will get also the league cup in the final versus ManCity. So in this fact, Mourinho is a coach that has a champion specialist. if there are still doubts, I'm sure because has been defeated in the final, or because of Mourinho's spicy mouth.

The bad news about Paul Pogba being injured while undergoing a training session in Los Angeles seems to have been confirmed by Juventus.
Because many media have reported the bad news, based on the results of the examination Paul Pogba suffered an injury to the lateral meniscus.
Which Pogba had to undergo surgery to cure him and reportedly had to rest for approximately two months. Actually, since 2014 Pogba has had
a history of injuries, but the lateral meniscus injury is one of the first injuries to Pogba. Because previously Pogba had more often suffered from
ankle and hamstring injuries. This means Pogba will miss a few games in Serie A and this will be a big problem for Juventus, because Pogba is
considered a key player for Juventus today. I hope Pogba recovers faster, because Juventus need Pogba's presence to be able to compete to win
the Serie A trophy.

The latest result of Juventus vs Barcelona was ended with a draw 2-2. Pogba was not there obviously but I think Zakaria and Locatelly were playing really well today so I do not think the injury of Pogba will give too much impact. He has not proven himself that he is still a great player for Juventus as he has just came back to Juventus and I'm sure Allegri is having many alternative players for Pogba's position. Juventus is not a team that relying on a single player, they could still be on top 4 last season while they lost Chiesa for more than half of the season. Of course losing 1 main player for long time is not good for a long competition but I still believe that Juventus will be able to compete even there will be no Pogba.

Milan will attempts to win again after humiliated by Zalaegerszehgi few days ago and their upcoming opponent is Austria team Wolfsberger and i predict Milan will play with their best starting lineup for this match including Giroud and probably Origi also will played and on the paper Milan obviously will going to win the match but during pre season matches they were failed to showed impressive performance especially their defensive line that Milan have to improve this side

This is a sign that Milan are well organized to demonstrate well in this season and many seasons to come, because Milan coach has brought in many tactics that will help the team to remain stronger through out the tournament. Milan really deserved the victory, because they played with all their power to ensure they win the match to make their fans believe that they are in a good position to win any competition in this season. Milan will win their next match 2:1 for the favour of Milan because Milan coach has worked on their defense right now which it will really help their midfielders and strikers to work together to achieve many goals from their next match.

He is out for a few weeks for sure due to the knee injury. There are images of him being assisted by the staff while he limped his way to the dressing room. Been only 2 weeks since he joined the Juve squad again and already injury concerns. He's been sent for a scan to get a better idea on how long he could take to recover.

[Webetcoins]

Of course the arrival of Dybala, Matic, Celik and goalkeeper Mile Svilar made them more confident. Some loan players have also returned. Of course Mourinho has many options for next season. But Mourinho has to learn from last season, they can't be stable because they don't have players of equal quality. But I see this season Roma are more aggressive in hunting for players, Mourinho seems to be given a large enough allocation of funds to spend on players. Of course they want to do better next season.

Yes, Roma looked more convincing this season after several new players were brought in. But I don't think they will guarantee an increase in performance because it all depends on the strategy and the quality of the players. Mourinho has to learn from last season, of course that's the most important thing for Roma because obviously they can't repeat that this season and fighting for the top four is the target they might have to achieve.

In last season AS Roma was average because they face few defeats against weak teams which hurt them badly but still good fight back from Mourinho guys as they achieve a trophy after many years as winner of UEFA Europa Conference winner with this all now in this new season they are having few quality players and want to fight for higher rank which should be in top four even this is not easy for them but still they are working on this all and if Mourinho has learned from his previous mistakes then surely they can achieve their target and go through into top four because Italian League is unpredictable and any team can dropped for having better way for AS Roma.

I think AC Milan should choose an opponent for a friendly with a stronger team. Because here it is not only their game that is tested, but their mentality will also speak like that. In the last match they failed the test. For some reason I don't like it a bit when I see trial opponents below their level.

Right now, Roma is not a team anyone looks at with Scudetto pedigree and yet, bit by bit we can see that Jose Mourinho is assembling a team that could spring more than a few surprises next season. I trust José Mourinho on matters like this, he knows his way around. For now he is transforming a team that has always suffered from a lack of personality both on and off the pitch, and that’s why he has brought in Paulo Dybala. He is trying to instil winners into a side that haven't been able to compete for the Serie A trophy for years now.

[vennali]

Paulo Dybala was announced infront of quite a good turnout of AS Roma fans. Looks like they've got high hopes from their new addition to the squad and a star player. Should be a good competitive season in Serie A this up and coming season. Cant wait.
