Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[W Jr.]

Now we have 2 friendly games involving teams from Italy, I'm talking about:

AS Roma 1 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur FC

Both teams are playing with all their best players, Roma has even put Dybala to play, it will be very interesting to see who will win in this game

The first time Paulo Dybala has played for Roma. As a result of the welcoming he received from Roma, you can be sure he will give everything he has! Roma will definitely be a good fit for him. He is a very talented football player who I believe Jose Mourinho will turn into a star. Despite the fact that he has always been a star.

He's a very good player. I can't believe why Juventus still sent him off the team. I am sure that Dybala will give Roma the best he can. A coach like Mourinho brings out more of his potential. Roma can play a better game than last year, which they made us feel in the match against Tottenham.

Juventus has always been weak on the right hand side and I think Di Maria is a good choice. I think he has lot to offer despite his age. I think Allegri planned Di Maria to be used as a regular player in the squad this season. As for Pogba, yes he is kinda injury-prone but I am sure Juventus had that in mind before going for him. He also can offer when he recovers and is back into the squad.

Even though he is 34 years old, Di Maria can still play well and can play anywhere, he will play a more crucial role with Juventus. Di Maria is a great talent, Allegri has to bring his individual qualities to the team and try to create the best conditions for Di Maria to support the others. He can maximize his ability with Juventus, because Allegri will give him regular minutes to fill the right wing position. His presence in the squad can help attack on the right side because his very strong physique will really help Juventus this season.

I have never doubted Di Maria quality before despite his age,his passes are out of this world and the Italia league is good for players of his age, he will help them, he was very involved at Paris Saint Germain despite the qualities of players there, he help Argentina so much to win Copa America despite lot of younger guys in his position, so I think if he can bring those qualities to the old ladies then no doubt is going to be a success. Paul pogba too was a wise choice because he is such a talented and experienced player.

Juventus made a big mistake by letting Dybala go this season. As this season Juventus are building their squad to win the title. They should have kept Dybala on the team this season. They are likely considering Di Maria as Dybala's replacement. But Di Maria has fitness issues. At the same time, their new midfielder Pogba is injured. Juventus are going to face big problems at the beginning of the season.

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri is experimenting with his squad. Against Barcelona, we saw a strange formation from Juventus. Massimiliano Allegri builds his strategy in a 4-5-1 formation. They drew the match 2-2. But against Real Madrid yesterday, he adjusted his tactics to a 4-3-3 formation. But Juventus lost the match 2-0. Maybe Massimiliano Allegri will do some more experiments before the start of the season.

[Smack That Ace]

Juventus are still thinking about a move to sign Nicolo Zaniolo but I'm not very positive about Roma to sell him to any team now. It is like the time they need him the most because they would aim to have a better season with Mourinho. Zaniolo is a player who can play a critical role in making this real. Tottenham are also observing his situation from some distance and looking for an opportunity to sign him. I expect none of them to reach their goal at least for this summer.

Mourinho will not easily let Zaniolo go to any club because he is a player who has an important role in AS Roma at this time, I can't imagine what if AS Roma loses one of their important pillars.
In addition, Zaniolo also participated in AS Roma's pre-season tour. This indicates that there is a great chance that Zaniolo will stay at AS Roma. BTW, in about 1 hour we'll see Tottenham Vs AS Roma match, hopefully Tottenham don't tease Zaniolo directly in that match, LOL.

It's true that Mourinho will definitely not let go of an important player in his strategy, unless he has a substitute that exceeds Zaniolo's quality. But who deserves to replace Zaniolo in the current squad? They will find it difficult to find a replacement. Moreover, the team that Mourinho has formed seems to have chemistry for now. So it will have little effect if they lose just one player.

Nicolò Zaniolo is a very significant player for ROMA right now. An attacking midfielder like him is a priority for Roma right now and that’s why I don’t think they’re willing to sell him. I am not going to say he had the greatest time in the last season, to be honest. He had 28 appearances and he scored two goals and two assists. He also had 11 yellow cards and two red cards if I am not wrong.

So I am not going to say he is one of the brightest players in that position. But now for Roma, he is certainly a necessary player. If he decides to move to Juventus and if Juventus is successful in signing this player I think this is going to be a good upgrade for the player. However, I believe Roma needs this player a lot more right now than Juventus does.

I wonder why Pogba refuses the surgery? I have heard that the recovery after surgery is almost twice as fast as if the meniscus is treated without surgery. They say that he consults on alternative options, but it’s hard for me to imagine what they might be and in any case, playing with an untreated injury is a much greater risk than having surgery and trying to speed up recovery.

I still have no word on what scheme will be taken from Paul Pogba's injury. But I believe that the club will choose the best path, I think Pogba must respect the decision the club will take. Which means he will definitely follow that decision, because what is at stake here is not only him but also the club that signed him.

The problem is that due to the World Cup taking place at such a strange time, the contradiction between the interests of the player and the interests of the club only increases. Pogba wants to be ready to compete in the World Cup and is planning his recovery schedule for the event. The club obviously wants Pogba to have surgery as soon as possible in order to recover quickly and play as much of the season as possible (but in doing so, most likely missing out on the World Cup). I don't know how this issue will eventually be resolved.

They are likely considering Di Maria as Dybala's replacement. But Di Maria has fitness issues. At the same time, their new midfielder Pogba is injured. Juventus are going to face big problems at the beginning of the season.

Not really big mistake made by Juventus after not extended contract with Paulo Dybala, they have new replacement by Angel Di Maria although his age over than Dybala but have most experience on Real Madrid and PSG. I think Di Maria the best player will replace position leaving by Dybala, now Juventus try looking for the replacement from Alvaro Moratta because still injury with Chiesa little difficult to find who will be partner for Dušan Vlahović. Juventus still faced trouble on midfielder area after Paul Pogba confirmed injury and have out from team with long time until four months later, bad news for Juventus because they less player on midfielder.

They drew the match 2-2. But against Real Madrid yesterday, he adjusted his tactics to a 4-3-3 formation. But Juventus lost the match 2-0. Maybe Massimiliano Allegri will do some more experiments before the start of the season.

Even sometimes if they still don't experiment enough in friendly matches, they will continue to experiment a little when they enter the league at least for the first few matches. This often happens for big teams as well, because sacrificing the first few matches might not be a problem if in the future, they can consistently gain points from match to match. But if they continued to not find a suitable strategy, then it would be dangerous as they would fall further and further behind by the top-ranked teams. With the updated squad, I hope Allegri is quick to make a firm decision on the implementation of the strategy as their target for next season must be achieved with such a squad.

It is claimed that Juventus are targeting the old Napoli striker Dries Mertens as well. He is still free agent and it would be too easy for them to sign him. However I don't think that he should be among their top targets. Because he is already 35 years old and I don't think that he will show a very impressive performance. He should be like a backup plan for Juventus in case they fail in signing strikers like Morata and Werner. It is important what they think of doing with a new transfer too. If they are thinking of him in the starting eleven then Mertens should definitely stay as the last option.

Yes Di Maria is still very capable of doing that, even with his experience it will help a lot. Now Di Maria will be very reliable in the squad, for several reasons. And the main reason is the absence of Paul Pogba. But Juventus still really need to improve their front line, because that position is still lacking in my opinion.

Even though Paul Pogba is fit and ready to play, Di Maria will continue to fill Allegri's main squad. Di Maria's experience and composure can be used as a new weapon for Juventus, he is able to run on the right wing which can make the opponent's defense wide, the ball that comes from Di Maria's feet is very accurate. Allegri can play Di Maria and Pogba simultaneously, because the two new pillars of Juventus play in different positions.
Juventus have shown signs of revival, even though they just lost to Real Madrid, but their performances are not as bad as last season. The coach must build chemistry between the lines in order to close the gap that can benefit the opposing team.

We can forget about Pogba in next several months with his injury. Di Maria plays at different position of Pogba but so far, he fails to convince Max Allegri that he can take over a main post in their squad. I don't think his issue is time but also because he is losing his best performance and currently in his downhill of career. He can have good contribute as a substitution from bench but as a main player, I think it is out of his capacity now.

Juventus have shown signs of revival, even though they just lost to Real Madrid, but their performances are not as bad as last season. The coach must build chemistry between the lines in order to close the gap that can benefit the opposing team.

They bought Dusan in last winter transfer season and it is a good preparation for this season. Chiesa will be back too and I think Juventus will be a stronger team than what they were in the past season.

Unfortunately, I did not see their improvement in the match with Real Madrid but it is not enough to make judgement. We must wait for their official matches in Serie A, not friendly ones.

Pogba isn't available for a long time due to his injury and Juventus need to find a midfielder immediately. It is like they are back to where they started now and I wonder whether there is someone who can be a solid alternative to Pogba in the market. This is a big hit to Juventus right before the beginning of the season. Allegri must be aiming the title this time for sure. But if they can't strengthen the needed positions very quickly they might not start very well to the season.

It would be correct to say here that Alegre dreams of a title, but in fact there are a lot of problematic positions in the team and Pogba's injury is only the beginning of what can happen to the team if a few more players get injured. Let's say if it will be someone from the attack, or from the defense, then there is simply no one to replace them, so I think that it is not worth talking about the title here. I see a lot of young players in the Alegre team now, but they will need time to gain experience, and this may take several years.

It seems that they have a lot of midfielders who have the same position as Pogba. There are 4 people who have the same position as pogba Weston McKennie, Adrien Rabiot, Nicolò Fagioli, and Fabio Miretti. I think Allegri can make the most of those four players, even though their character is different. If they buy players with the same position, I think it's a waste of money. They better be patient and make an immediate recovery for Pogba.

Big problem for Juventus with Paul Pogba injury and need long time for him come back, actually really important finding new midfielder replace position leaving by Pogba, Juventus faced trouble on midfielder area last season and with Pogba hope could give service and assist for forward, but he got injury and absent with long time. Still have long time before window transfer close, I think Juventus have bigger chance and moving their target with new midfielder. Just prepare with how much money need for getting new midfielder with top talented like Paul Pogba, sure Juventus will find new replacement for Paul Pogba than waiting him back from injury.

A friendly game is played right now between milan and marseille, milan are playing really good in the first half and they are leading 2 0, giroud and messias are on fire as   always giroud a goal scorer again, milan team is looking dominant it seems they will be one of the title contenders again this season.

Currently, AC Milan is 1 goal ahead of its opponent Marseille in a friendly match. AC Milan superior goal was scored by J.Messias in the 11th minute. AC Milan performed quite well at the beginning of the first half and they made several attempts to attack and the birth of the first goal in the 11th minute through J. messias' hard kick. Marseille seems to be an easy opponent to beat by AC Milan if we look at the game in the first half because AC Milan is able to control every movement of the opposing player well. And yes, another goal for AC Milan advantage this time was scored by Olivier Giroud in the 28th minute and the match is still running until now. I think AC Milan will be able to add another goal in the second half.

I think AC Milan with the old squad means no big changes in this summer window already strong enough for next season let alone they have got Divock Origi for next season. I believe they can defend the title Scudetto.

ordeal is befalling juventus, after pogba is seriously injured, mckennie is also predicted to be unable to play for juventus in the next few weeks due to his shoulder injury

reportedly because of these two unexpected things, allegri changed his strategy and didn't sell rabiot and arthur, in my opinion this is the best decision that allegri and juventus have to take

In this case I see something else, They stay with their squad doesn't mean they feel strong enough, but they can't do much there.
Currently their condition is not good from a financial point of view due to their poor financial management in the previous season so that even if they want a big change they will not be able to do it.

Juventus will not worry too much about that because they have the option of several substitutes, Locatelli is a potential one, besides that there is also Zakaria, and McKennie. Juventus have a lot of midfielders, more worry for the striker because they still lack a backup striker.

I'm really looking forward to how Juventus will start the new season in Serie A, considering that in the two matchs with teams from La Liga, they haven't been able to excel. Massimiliano Allegri still hasn't found the right formation for some of their new players.
