Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[marcous]

Napoli is losing many pieces, some deliberately, others not
Certainly this does not help the team which will have a very demanding season, between the league and the cups.
I don't know, honestly I'm starting to not see the situation well.

The situation may be a little different at Napoli for next season, because with the presence of a new coach for Napoli there will definitely be slightly different tactics than before so that the old players must be able to readjust themselves to the direction of their new coach. Likewise with new players who must be able to work together with the old players at Napoli so that Napoli can maintain their strength in the next season, although I'm a little less sure that Napoli can be much stronger than last season.

It can be said that the change of coach will determine the percentage of success for next season, in addition to the entry and exit of players. The surprises haven't ended as long as the transfer market hasn't closed, anything can still happen and not only Napoli. At least the most realistic target is to finish in the Champions League Zone next season, because it is profitable in terms of income and players will stay at the club. Juventus, AC Milan, Inter Milan, AS Roma and Napoli are the most favorite clubs.

What's interesting to look forward to is luck on AS Roma side, Jose Mourinho hasn't won the Scudetto since coaching the Capital club, becoming a motivation for him as a strong contender for next season.

If Napoli is actually interested in defending the title successfully, they should actually think about bringing in players who will make the team strong. Defenders are obviously going to be very important for the team. Losing a really good player, like Min Jae Kim is obviously going to be big for a club that is defending the title.

There is no club that does not want to defend the championship title obtained last season. but, each team has different problems each season. Napoli, who have to change coaches and the arrival of new players, will make this season even more difficult to defend the title. Adapting this new strategy is sometimes more difficult for players to implement, this must be solved by the coach from the beginning.

Sometimes the change in the managerial role in a club really affects the team negatively because players find it difficult to adapt and understand the tactics of the new manager, just like the situation that happened when the ownership of Chelsea was changed and the new owner had to replace their manager with a new coach with potential but it turned out very bad because his style of play and was too hard for the player to adapt to.
 Napoli had a very successful season and were regarded as one of the toughest team in the world but there's going to be a big doubt over whether they would be able to replicate the success rate of last season and perform better than they did to be able to defend their trophy this season, the good thing for them is that majority of the players they had last season are still intact and their new manager Rudi Garcia have had experience in the Italian league coaching AS Roma even though he's not had a trophy in is coaching career. Napoli is going to face a very big competition from Juventus and intermilan mostly and next season would be very tough because Juve would want to get back to the top as champions of Italy.

Maybe I have a different opinion regarding the rumors of Lukaku going to Juventus and in my opinion it's not good for Juventus later. As most people know, Lukaku is actually a good player, it's just that he is often problematic for his colleagues. As a mature striker, Lukaku's contribution is expected to be consistent in every game and especially for important matches he is able to prove his capacity.

It is planned that Lukaku will be brought in as a replacement for Vlahovic if he later leaves Juventus. However, some time ago there was indeed rejection from Juventus fans about Lukaku and maybe Juventus also did not want to be hasty in making a temporary decision. Actually it wasn't Inter who gave up, but Lukaku was more interested in an offer from Juventus, so this was more of a betrayal.

La Gazzetta dello Sport writes that Lukaku realized his mistake and wanted to improve relations with the club's management, but everything remains the same, it seems that Inter was seriously offended by Lukaku. A strange position, players often negotiate with different clubs, but apparently Inter actually doubted whether they needed Lukaku. Now it appears that the team from Saudi Arabia is making him a generous offer and a contract until 2026, but it looks like Lukaku wants to stay in Europe.

Indeed, selling Martinez at a high price is a pretty good idea if the goal is to have more money or improve the club's finances. And also so that Inter Milan can buy more of the players they need to prepare for a more fierce competition in the coming season. But what Inter Milan is afraid of is that they are afraid of not being able to buy players who are on the same level as Martinez. And this can have a negative impact on the team's performance in the coming season. Because having a lot of money cannot be a guarantee that you can buy a better player than Martinez.

But Lautaro Martínez has chosen to stay at Inter Milan even though he has been offered a very high salary at the Saudi Arabian team but I think not all players are tempted by money and indeed Lautaro Martínez's decision to reject the Saudi Arabian team's offer is very correct, Lautaro Martínez is more concerned with his career than money because if he goes to the Saudi Arabian team then his career will surely fade.

And for the Inter Milan team, I never thought that selling Lautaro Martínez at a high price would be profitable for them, Lautaro Martínez is a player who has made a big contribution to the Inter Milan team and is also still very young so the future prospects for the team will be very large.

I believe that we are going to see him accept an offer from European clubs, so maybe they can try to do that? Saudi League is not acceptable for some players, I can understand it because there are some cultural and political situations that may not be great for some players who like to have fun and all that, but at the end of the day if there is a good European club that accepts to get Martinez, and pay for him a good amount as well, they could sell him without a doubt.

I do not think that he would be unwanted, if you offered him to the clubs, and basically put him on the transfer market and make it known, then I am guessing that it is not going to be impossible for him to go, he would probably be sold one way or another.

The cultural and political issues won't stand in the way of those deals I think. The Saudi Professional League is trying everything to make it look smooth and feel smooth for the players going there. Otherwise they couldn't sign Ronaldo and then allow his wife to wear the clothes she wears and share bikini fotos on their Instagram. In that regard the SPL officials and the authorities agree that this should not become an issue for any player going there. If anything like that came to light, the trouble would be big and it would be immensely harder to sign new players in the future. For now I think the offer that Martinez received is still an offer that he declines because he thinks it could be higher perhaps.

But at the same time the risk is that this won't go on forever that these offers are made to so many players who could earn more than a fortune with their signature.

Finally it all happened after a few weeks ago I said about the arrogance of Romelu Lukaku who aggressively felt he was a much needed player at any big club and finally secretly made mistakes and now he only realizes it if he made a big mistake after Inter milan, Chelsea and Juventus were angry at his aggressive attitude.
After reading the news you mentioned, I see that actually Romelu Lukaku is thinking not only about a career but he is thinking about big money or salary so he secretly approached Juventus for contract discussions and I say this all after reading the source of what you said.
Now Romelu Lukaku is starting to get confused about where he will continue his career because I see that Chelsea themselves are also angry with the stupid behavior he has taken and I have thoughts about whether he will only continue his career in the Arab league.

For any championship club there going to be new problems every other season. The only way that the club is going to be one of the best is by fixing those problems.

Napoli, undeniably a formidable team, possesses the potential to extend their previous season's stellar performance and triumphantly safeguard their title. But as you said, there have been some changes in the team. New management and also some new players are going to have to start well this season. They will also have to be very consistent. Otherwise, they are not going to be able to win anything in my opinion. Honestly, I am not going to be sad if they finish in the second position, to be honest. But I want to see a great performance from Victor Osimhen.

With the recent changes at Napoli, it'll take a miracle for the them replicate their great performance of last season. The new manager and the new players would certainly have to work together for awhile to better understand themselves and find the best style of play that'll work for the team.
Defending a league title is considered to be harder than winning because other clubs in the league will be very much wary of the defending club.

Defenders are obviously going to be very important for the team. Losing a really good player, like Min Jae Kim is obviously going to be big for a club that is defending the title.

After selling a key player like Min Jae Kim, I believe they knew what they were getting into. Napoli is not such a small team that one would assume they only desire to make revenue by developing players and selling them to other elite teams for profit. I believe they should have prepared for this by either bringing in a new player to replace him or making changes by creating a powerful squad from the existing players.

My recommendation is that Napoli seriously contemplate the recruitment of a formidable player - someone capable of seamlessly filling the void left by Kim. However, it appears that thus far, the club is attempting to address this issue with their existing squad members. The predicament lies in the fact that the current players may not possess the necessary qualities to strike a delicate balance within the team.

That is not exactly true for me. One player in a team is crucial checking from the void he fills in the squad. However, making alterations to the squad after only one player leaves will not be a major issue for the team. A good and experienced manager is required to carry this out for the team.

I don't think so because Napoli only changed coach, while their squad depth is still quite strong because none of the star players have gone to other teams in this transfer window. Indeed under their new coach Napoli will definitely have a different style of play next season. However, Napoli is still very much counted on next season if Osimhen does not leave Napoli in this transfer window.

Apart from that there was no recruitment of quality players carried out by the management of Napoli in this transfer window. Development for now I see that Osimhen has not signed a new contract which could trigger a reaction to his future with Napoli in the next season. I think Manchester United is still monitoring the developments that are happening with Osimhen in Napoli in the new contract offer offered by Napoli but Osimhen doesn't want to sign a new contract yet.

Most times it's very difficult to replace a player that is very good. It's not like that player is the best in the world in his position, but getting a player better than or as good as the player that left can cost more that you imagined.
Imagine Napoli goes all out of a quality defender that is up to the pedigree of Kim, how much do you think they'll spend? In my opinion, it would be nothing less than €70 million. This is a club that sold Kim because they needed money to balance some things.
When a player like that leaves, it's not a must to get an equal replacement, the team can adapt and play without him and it will be like he never left.
Napoli have not sold many of their top players which is a good thing. With the players they have they can compete for tye league next season. They just need a few additions for quality squad depth and they'll be good.

Not necessarily as not that many things have changed thus far, but doesn't it need a miracle anyway to play a season as good as the last one? In the first 24 games their performance was of historic significance as they scored 65 out of 72 points. I guess only Juventus was ever able to do that in one of their best seasons. Hence, despite the changes that now happened and will happen, replicating a season with 65 out 72 points after 24 games is crazy either way. Even when they all stayed together including the coach, it would still be hard to do.

[Velvet78]

It looks like Napoli are quite likely to keep Osimhen this summer. At least for now. Because there is no rumour regarding him to sign for another team these days. However there might be a chance for PSG to think of bringing him depending on Mbappe's situation. When they lose a player like Mbappe they need to bring another top player to try to make up for that.

Vlahovic has been rumoured with PSG maybe but in this case I think PSG can change their route to Osimhen instead. PSG are going to get 300 million euros as a transfer fee from Al-Hilal if Mbappe signs for them. They can surely use this money to sign a player like Osimhen.

Sometimes with a new coach, you don't necessarily have the opportunity to work as hard as last season. Napoli were good at the end of last season because they managed to dominate the Serie A with a wide margin of victory points; no other club could be like that, meaning that Luciano Spalletti has made the best contribution to Napoli and they should have kept him because Rudi Garcia may not necessarily be able to give them victory like last season.

Paris Saint-Germain is associated with any more or less large transfer and in most cases still the transfer does not happen. It depends more on the position of Osimhen himself, whether he is ready to change the Italian championship to French right now. So far, probably not, especially since both Napoli and Paris Saint Germain participate in the Champions League and I think that Osimhen's ambitions as a player are still higher than participation in Ligue 1 and Paris Saint Germain, and Paris Saint Germain is unlikely to buy a player with the expectation of only one season, but most likely with a good season without injuries, Osimhen is unlikely to stay in Napoli for more than 1 season.

I feel like if he does leave, it would not be for cheap and if they can sell him for a lot of money then they could end up with a good amount of money that can be used to get more players. Inter is not doing well financially even after a UCL finals and not buying players that would be great, they haven't spent all that much money even though they have earned so much money.

This is why I believe that the best thing to do for them would be selling Martinez and then using that money to get new players. Better yet, they should be using all the money they have made from UCL into the team already and not doing that right now, I feel like they should and that could be the most important thing that would be very good in the end.

Indeed, selling Martinez at a high price is a pretty good idea if the goal is to have more money or improve the club's finances. And also so that Inter Milan can buy more of the players they need to prepare for a more fierce competition in the coming season. But what Inter Milan is afraid of is that they are afraid of not being able to buy players who are on the same level as Martinez. And this can have a negative impact on the team's performance in the coming season. Because having a lot of money cannot be a guarantee that you can buy a better player than Martinez.

I don't think if Inter Milan will sell Lautaro Martinez, especially in this season when they need to have more forwards after Lukaku left this team because in recent weeks, they were getting far from Lukaku and a player like Martinez is very important for them right now.
However, they can surely earn too much money from selling this player.

I seem to disagree with your opinion which states that other teams cannot set a record for the title with a wide difference in points with the team below them. This could happen or be done by other teams next season if they can take advantage of each game consistently then they will be able to achieve this at the end of the competition. Coach changes often make a team lose their best form if the coach fails to implement a style of play that is acceptable to their players.

Napoli, Juventus and AC milan and even Inter milan will struggle next season in the race for the Scudetto trophy. I think we AC Milan have the opportunity to reach the Scudetto trophy next season because they are very strong at this time if we look at it from the point of view of their game against Real Madrid. I think Pioli just needs to step up to more aggressive scouting in terms of their game next season.

I didn't hear any new offer for Lautaro Martinez except the Saudi big deal which was refused by the player. I assume he wants to continue in Europe and probably in Inter for at least another season.
Otherwise Inter are looking for Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez. Until now they offered quite low price which was rejected by them, €15m...

Inter Milan performance is superb, with the aides from Lautaro Martínez and Romelu Lukaku for goals, it really boost them, and they won't consider selling their important players. Inter Milan performed admirably the previous season, reaching the UEFA Champions League final despite losing to one of the finest teams in the world at the time, indicating that the club is among the best in the world. The club's boss, Simone Inzaghi, is working extremely hard to remedy circumstances for his squad, pointing to the frontlines and midfield, he doesn't want to discover any more challenges in these spots, he wants to face the real challenges this time, for the scudetto.
