Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Razmirraz]

Defeat by a considerable margin. It's a surprise and I laughed. I think if Roma lose it's just a one-goal or two-goal difference. A quick goal in the fifth minute made Roma even more devastated and frustrated. Their second half was further ruined.
Roma looked so amateurish, besides that they also had to lose the injured Tammy Abraham. Perhaps Mourinho is also not calm as they will take on Ludogorets in the Europa League on Thursday. This adds to the list of injured players after previously Nicolo Zaniolo also got a shoulder injury.

Roma was seeded when they traveled to Udinese headquarters, but unexpectedly Roma played badly and without high determination. Udinese took advantage of Roma omission to score goal after goal which made the match end 4-0. As a result of the poor results obtained by Roma, now there are only four clubs who have not lost until week 5 in Serie A 2022-2023, they are Napoli, Milan, Juventus and Atalanta. The 4-0 defeat to Udinese was also Mourinho worst defeat since taking charge of the Serie A club.

I still have same positivity for Atalanta knowing they can sure do better than this. Jose Mourinho and his side also, but the loss to udinese is already a turn off chasing the league at these early periods.

Yes it was a little surprising that their steps were stopped by Udinese. They even had to lose by a score that was far from what was predicted. AS Roma started well and had to be beaten by the non-favorites to win. Indeed this often happens in Serie A, where they always find it difficult to maintain consistency and that is experienced by AS Roma now.

Anyway, Roma will still have a chance to compete in the top six but a massive 4-0 loss by Udinese is totally unacceptable, Mourinho must be able to fix the situation quickly. In the next match, Roma will play against Empoli, whose record on paper Roma will be able to win easily, if Mourinho can overcome the problems quickly then I believe Roma will win big too in the next match against Empoli. Roma should be more aggressive to win by a big score, because they have great strikers now which is certainly good to boost their morale.

Morinho is very frustrated at the loss,but if he straightens and addresses the issues and problems that made him loose,he will be able to defeat Empoli,but if he neglects it,thesame tactics Udinese used in winning them will also be used and they will still defeat his team despite the record they have against Empoli.Roma was doing well this season,therefore,they shouldn't allow the defeat to affect them mentally,because if it does,it will be very bad for the team,and it will affect the moral of the team.

[terrorJR]

exactly
they have enough quality at Rome because they bought some good players
if they didn't take Mourinho and take other players, it was certainly going even better than how it has recently been
my opinion

It's true, and the evidence is there even if it's just a Conference trophy but it's one of the things that is actually quite good for Roma at the moment. Regardless of how eccentric Mou is in coaching and the fans are divided between likes and dislikes, Mou is still clearly able to bring Roma to a form that is quite good so far.

This only first lose so don't take it too serious because there are plenty upcoming matches available and regarding Mourinho tactic he was used same tactic for each matches since week 1 even while against Juventus the formation is similar such as against Udinese but the difference is Udinese manager Andrea Sottil is clever and know how to counter it so that's why he can bring Udinese won with big scores but next match will be different because i am sure Mourinho already anticipated it and he confident Roma can win from Empoli

[X-ray]

Some big club are suffering the start of the new season may be because the season just started and club are trying to get their feet roma with a manager mourinho should do better in the italian league they will bounce back certainly

Yeah but it seems like almost all of clubs have been performing so well but maybe some are still struggling to get their best performance. So far roma is still being very consistence on its performance. it was only losing when it was against udinese. I do believe if roma may come back again to the right track. It's able to compete with the big clubs like juventus or napoli. It seems like seria a became more competitive like EPL

Rather than being frustrated with their condition and their recent defeat, I think it would be better if they focused on their next match.
Right now they have to focus on the Europa League against Ludogorets and Empoli in Serie A.
It should be with their current condition and the quality of the opponents they are facing could be a good thing for them and there is no time to reminisce on the past games as they have quite a busy schedule right now.

[zuzie]

Inter Milan will host Torino, surely this is not an easy match for Inter Milan. Torino have bagged a few wins this season and are slightly better off than Inter Milan although they haven't really got a tough opponent. Now Inter Milan must be wary of movements from Torino, because once they let their guard down it could be a defeat for Inter Milan.

I believe Inter can handle it, after suffering losses in the last two match, coach Inzaghi will probably put his full strength to avoid defeat from Torino in the coming days.
After that in the seventh week of Serie A Inter will face Udinese, Udinese's performance is at its peak and they have the opportunity to beat Inter.

Inter must make the most of the match against Torino so that their position does not sink further in the Serie A standings.

If AS Roma wants instant results it will hard. because Mourinho still needs players who fit his strategy and currently it is still not balanced. At Inter Milan and Madrid, Mourinho continued a team that was already solid, while at AS Roma, he had to start from a team that already had a mentality that need to be rebuilt in order to have the confidence, psychology and desire to win. Mourinho was successful in the UEFA Conference League Cup, it's been a good start, maybe in the next few seasons, we'll see Roma get better again.

Jose Mourinho could said not easy how to build AS Roma become solid team, but not really bad with first season achievement success got UEFA Conference League, but defeated by Udinese last week make Jose Mourinho bad reputation exactly loss with bigger score 4-0. Jose Mourinho still need to add several player on next window transfer opening although he has make balanced with AS Roma team player on half season can finish on top standing position.
Serie A more competitive in this season without have many different points and standing position, I think still have chance for AS Roma make better position standing finish in this season because Atalanta as 1th place standing just 3 points different from AS Roma, I think if can consistent for next match will have chance back to the top position again for AS Roma.

All coaches have suffered big losses against underdogs. This is not entirely a mistake but it could be a stroke of luck for Udinese because in that match the coach and player strategies could not be applied properly. So, Roma became unable to maintain their defense. If only because of this defeat or the subsequent defeats in the future then Roma Board considers sacking Mourinho, I'm worried that AS Roma will take longer to get back into the big 4.

I trust Jose Mourinho in terms of his mentality as a coach, and I'm sure he will apply what he has to his team as well. Indeed the defeat was surprising and will definitely affect the team a bit. But I think Jose Mourinho will quickly get their mentality back for the next game. They must win the match in order to really restore the morale of the team.

Roma's performance in this match was completely unexpected. Roma's performance has been quite good in all the previous matches. Especially their defence was very strong. But against Udinese, Roma's defence completely crumbled. Udinese didn't attack much. Even so, Roma conceded four goals.

I don't think Roma will sack Mourinho. Roma's management paid Mourinho very little to build the team. If Mourinho had underperformed after spending so much money, maybe Roma management would have considered sacking him.

As a Roma supporter, I still believe in Mourinho, thanks to him we ended our fast of winning titles in Europe. This is just one game, it's actually good to lose to Udinese at the beginning of the season, so that the Roma players are aware and can improve. Stay optimistic that you can finish in the top 4.

my opinion

Hmm... what's wrong with Mourinho? If he is so bad then why did he win the last two European titles for Serie A, and not all the others who are good? 
And what can you say about Inter and Juventus, which are now lower in the standings than Roma, Udinese and Torino? I think the fans (and management) of these teams also expected a better start.

No one will doubt the quality of Mourinho as a coach and his achievements tho
The only problem with him is his old school tactics that are known by most teams and easy to counter them. I am not an expert obviously but that's what I am aware of from analysts.
His previous experience with Spurs was quite unpleasant for example although he had good players. So if he succeed with Roma and fail with Spurs then it is not totally his fault tho.

When Mourinho came to Manchester United, he had even more good players, but as we can see, this did not help him in any way. I don't know if it's right to say that his time has passed? After all, there are coaches like Ancelotti and I can't say that his strategy is modern, it just brings results. It will be difficult for him to achieve good results in Roma, but he does not have much choice now.

[Google+]

the best attack at the moment is that of Napoli with 12 goals
the best defense is by Atalanta and Juventus (with 2 goals conceded)
the worst attack is from Monza / Sampdoria with 2 goals scored
the worst defense is that of Monza with 13 goals conceded (last in the standings)

Ac monza owner Silvio Berlusconi may have to immediately take appropriate action to make a few changes to the squad whether it's replacing a new coach to be able to support this aspect of their game in the upcoming matches. The start of the season or its inaugural season in Serie A was very disappointing where in the last 5 matches Ac monza had to lose. almost every line is very fragile, especially in defense which must be addressed immediately. for the upcoming match Ac monza will face Lecce where these two teams are promoted teams this season. I think we will see the hard work of the Ac monza players in this match because they are really looking for the first win to lift the spirits.

Here we have nothing new because as sportsperson many problems are happened in his life same happening as coach with Mourinho even I believe he is still a good and quality coach even facing some terrible time with his strategy and many times having issues with his wrong decisions as well most chances he will survive and able to give us good results as he has done in last year and won UEFA Europa Conference Cup.

In last match and today both times have failures, but things can change in positive way with these failures, but he needs to check his mistakes and learn from them which is surely going to help him for better results in coming matches Ancelotti is completely another class and have enough things which are helping him for having amazing results until now.

First round that we dont have an actual intresting match,all of the favorites are playing against weaker teams so the only intresting match is between maybe Bologna and Fiorentina. Hard match also Roma should have against Empoli that is always hard to play against

This is just one game, it's actually good to lose to Udinese at the beginning of the season, so that the Roma players are aware and can improve. Stay optimistic that you can finish in the top 4.

To finish in the top four, at least Roma have to get rid of Juventus who previously occupy that position last season
If look at the achievements of Milan and Napoli until the 5th week of Serie A, it is possible that both of them have the potential to stay in the top four.
And Atalanta has improved in performance this season, even until week 5 Atalanta became one of the strongest teams in Serie A which led them to lead the standings.
While Inter, who entered the top four of Serie A last season, have had quite a serious problem this season, it seems Inter have not been able to find their best game this season.

[savetheFORUM]

I believe Inter can handle it, after suffering losses in the last two match, coach Inzaghi will probably put his full strength to avoid defeat from Torino in the coming days.
After that in the seventh week of Serie A Inter will face Udinese, Udinese's performance is at its peak and they have the opportunity to beat Inter.

Inter must make the most of the match against Torino so that their position does not sink further in the Serie A standings.

In last four matches Inter lost three which is surely matter of concern for the Inzaghi and his players as they only won one match and this was against new promoted side Cremonese now in coming matches they are going to face sides which are having good result in recent time which mean they have to done something special for having better results from these matches.

Inzaghi is good coach and have good strategies which can help him for these matches and having good results, but they need to start from now as time is running out and if they fail to have better results as soon as possible as surely they can go more down and even out of the title race.
