Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[OcTradism]

I don't even think napoli gonna let osimhen leaves although al hilal gonna send 200m bid for osimhen. Napoli was a free debt club. It seems like that money is not the main achievement by napoli. Al hilal needs to find another target.

If Al Hilal actually make that bid, Napoli will not keep Osimhen as they will take advantage of it to sell the player and get profit. They bought the season ago with about $70M transfer from Lille so selling him now at $200M is a very good deal for them.  Osimhen would not have a more lucrative price than Mbappe who got an offer about $300M from Saudi weeks ago.

This club has been failed to recruit the popular european player. Al hilal has sent bid for messi, mbappe and then osimhen but these efforts are already wasted as none of those players are interested in joining al hilal.

Al Hilal see challenge from Al Nassr and they know that if they won't improve their squad, they will be beaten by Al Nassr in a new season. However, they are not the only club in Saudi Arabia are hunting star players from Europe so the competitiveness on transfer market is high.

I believe there will be a great player to join in al hilal very soon. Osimhen or even kvarat already got so many attentions from the various teams but napoli is still trying so hard to keep both of players. will al hilal make a higher offer than it?

Kravatskhelia receives less interests from big clubs and from Saudi than Osimhen because he only had one good seasons in Serie A. Risk of failure with Kravatskhelia is bigger than with Osimhen who already had some good seasons in Ligue 1 and Serie A.

While we didn't pay attention to Inzaghi and his contract with Inter Milan, and there was some news about this coach leaving Inter Milan because of having better offers or because of have unstable performance in the first weeks of the season, but it seems Inzaghi and Inter Milan prefer to work with each other for a longer time because Inzaghi recently extended his contract with Inter Milan for one more year.

https://sempreinter.com/2023/08/08/why-inter-milan-decided-to-extend-the-contract-of-simone-inzaghi/

I think Inter should be able to keep Inzaghi a little longer because he has something that can turn Inter into a European giant again. Even though last season he failed to win the Champions League with Inter, he also contributed to winning two other trophies in the Italian competition. This coach is quite special especially since he was able to bring Inter to be competitive with other teams last season. I think a one year contract is still a little bit for him and at least another two or three years will really make Inter even better. Inzaghi is a man who understands the transition of his current players and therefore I hope Inter can give him more time.

Al hilal is not yet giving up in snatching osimhen from napoli. Partinopei already put 200m as the minimum amounts of money required to buy osimhen from the club. Napoli is not giving up yet in bidding gabri vega. The club is very interesting to sign him as a new playerFootball italia reported that.

Page eight of today’s Gazzetta underlines how Al-Hilal have now offered Osimhen a contract worth €200m total – it is currently unclear if this is a four-year deal at €50m or a five-year offer at €40m net per season.
The Partenopei have put a €200m price tag on the Nigerian striker and are unlikely to budge, with president Aurelio De Laurentiis known for being a tough negotiator.

I think that napoli has no intention to let osimhen leaves from the club in summer. it's unlikely the offer from al hilal gonna be accepted by napoli. This is a very interesting thing caused by al hilal will try to put more offer for osimhen.
Osimhen is already committed to stay in napoli till next season. Osimhen has not extended his contract with napoli. Al hilal is still fighting for him.

Napoli doesn't really need money at this moment. I think that al hilal's offer has zero chance to be accepted by napoli.

‌
Bad news for Napli because it seems their 200m player who is an important and effective player for this team is not in a good situation and he got injured in training.
In today's training, their new defender, who joined this team a few days ago Natan, was the reason for Osimhn getting injured.
As the first match in Serie A Napoli will face Frosinone on August 21st.

That's not a good news it can lead to the reduction of his fee if he doesn't bounce back up stronger
Mistakes like this happens and it's nothing new it was really reckless of the new defender to go very harsh on Victor Oshime
They will have to focus now on defending the league title from Juventus,, Roma, Ac Milan and Atalanta who are possible favorites to win the league this season.

[Velvet78]

Inter still haven't extended Inzaghi's contract despite having a wonderful season with multiple titles and qualifying for the Champions League finale as well. Maybe they want to wait because they want to see Inter fighting for the league title again. You know they couldn't do so in the previous season due to having a bad run for some time first.

He has one year left on his contract now. But I feel like this extension will happen during this season. Because I expect Inter to be a part of the title competition this time. In the last times they made progress about their defense and offense both.

If you look at Inzaghi's success last season, of course, Inter Milan will extend his contract, especially seeing that being runner up in the UCL makes Inzaghi have the potential and opportunity to bring Inter Milan even better than last season, at least get the title of winning the Italian league this season. I don't think Inter will sack Inzaghi.

As far as I can see, Inzaghi already has a good strategy for Inter Milan while he has been a coach at Inter Milan, it looks like Inter Milan is getting better, considering that he failed to get a title last season, both the UCL and the Italian league, of course Inzaghi will probably target another title next season. at least not to disappoint the intermilan supporters.

https://sempreinter.com/2023/08/08/why-inter-milan-decided-to-extend-the-contract-of-simone-inzaghi/

I think Inzaghi is a successful manager. He took Inter to the UCL final last year and played a very good final game. Even though he didn't get what he wanted in the league, he became a coach that left a mark in UCL. I think he is a coach who has the ability to work at Inter for many more years.

Based on his achievements in the Champions League, it is very appropriate for Inzaghi to be given a long-term contract by Inter Milan management. Because in the last decade only Juventus from Serie A have made it into the UCL final, last season Inzaghi managed to bring Inter Milan to the final.

But the fact that Inzaghi was only given a contract extension for one season, it is possible that the current consideration is the Scudetto Trophy. If you can bring Inter to win it, Inzaghi could last longer at the Giuseppe Meazza.

Simeone Inzaghi incredible performance last season I think should earn him a lucrative contract extension with Inter Milan. How he managed to take Inter Milan to the UEFA Champions League final was one of the surprises of last season because Inter wasn't one of the favorites to reach the final last season.
With what he did with Inter Milan last season, there's every possiblity that he can achieve more this new season and probably do that by winning the scudetto with Inter

Inzaghi is a good enough coach, and you know, last season Inter Milan played brilliantly with the help of Inzaghi. Although they can not win the title, however I must have to say the dominance shown by Inter Milan in the Champions League is truly commendable. No one expected Inter Milan to play in the Champions League final. Inter Milan performed well in Serie A. However, due to the weakness of the defense, the team lost points in several matches. So my honest opinion is Inter Milan should extend Inzaghi's contract. If Inzaghi stays with this team for a long time, he will be able to curate a squad capable of dominating Serie A.

But do these offers even matter when Osimhen doesn't want to leave or has that situation changed? I have never read anything about Osimhen accepting an offer from Saudi Arabia. They can't just sell him even if he has a contract and doesn't want to go there.

The injury, if it is a serious one, can change the situation of course. For Napoli it would be bad if they have a big offer on their table on the one hand, and on the other hand he just got injured and will miss some of the games.

But interestingly, the Saudi clubs are not done yet as their transfer window will be open for quite a while.

[giammangiato]

Of course Napoli won't be like last season, the departure of the coach and several key players will of course change everything but I'm also not saying that they will be far down, maybe this will be better or maintain the stability of the team, all of that is still a mystery even though there are many people who doubt them.
Of course, now a lot of Serie A teams are starting to improve even better and that will make the competition at the top to win the Scudetto much more difficult, I'm sure this season will be much more interesting than last season, and I think there will be several teams who will compete fiercely to win the Scudetto.

In my opinion, Napoli made some totally suicidal moves, arguing with a good coach who led you to victory, making key players leave who by now knew the schemes by heart and who knew how to fit well into the team: I am skeptical about the performances.

after all Napoli is also in business here. they were the best last season and the performance of their players got the attention of the big clubs. there were offers and agreements and in the end we will not know how the current condition of Napoli will be in their favor or not for next season. but they certainly brought in some players to make up for the positions their players had left. Of course it will still require adaptation. especially with a new coach, I hope that Napoli will not be too far from last season.

Napoli did not argue with the previous coach. Spalletti's reason for leaving was because he wanted to relax with his long-estranged family and Napoli respected that decision so it would be ridiculous to blame Napoli just because of Spalletti's amicable agreement there.

At the moment there are a lot of doubts about Napoli but looking at the current conditions isn't this the same as last season where Napoli were also underestimated for removing some important players like Dries Mertens and Koulibaly but in the end they were able to and now I think it's not too appropriate to underestimate Napoli again but still don't see the performance for next season especially since they are the defending champions this time.

That's right, I also think that some of these decisions will really cost Napoli what they had or achieved last season.
I don't know how Napoli's management thinks, but all of these actions will be detrimental and have a negative impact on the team's development this season.
Napoli seemed to have to start over from scratch because they had thrown away what should have been strength for the team.

Even though in Serie A there are only a few top clubs that are not that significant and are still easy for Napoli to pass by, the changes in Napoli have made it difficult for them to adapt to the current players.
Not saying Napoli will experience a slump, but at least all of these things can make it difficult for Napoli.

Napoli has an important pool of players right now. Many of the players are confident that they won Serie A last year. Of course, it would have been better if they had not been eliminated by Milan in UCL, but even their performance in the league was amazing for them. Therefore, they will definitely be affected by the change of coach, but I hope it will not have a big impact.

From an external perspective it is almost impossible to tell what happened behind the scenes when a coach leaves a club while he actually still has a contract or an offer for an extension of the contract, but since Spalletti had two or three sabbatical in the last couple of years, this could be true. But often times there is more to it than just the desire for some vacation or free time. I still think that he might have had an offer from Saudi Arabia maybe? But it doesn't matter in the end, people shouldn't jump the gun and call him out for anything that is not proven. Sometimes it can also have important private reasons that somebody doesn't want to share with the public. He is 64 now and perhaps he won't return at all. Many coaches do that job for very long since they love it, most of them don't need the money. But neglect how stressful it is can also be a costly issue.

[macson]

Based on his achievements in the Champions League, it is very appropriate for Inzaghi to be given a long-term contract by Inter Milan management. Because in the last decade only Juventus from Serie A have made it into the UCL final, last season Inzaghi managed to bring Inter Milan to the final.

But the fact that Inzaghi was only given a contract extension for one season, it is possible that the current consideration is the Scudetto Trophy. If you can bring Inter to win it, Inzaghi could last longer at the Giuseppe Meazza.

until now there is no bad news about Inzaghi and Inter management who made him a contract not for the long term, it seems management is looking at other coaches!

juventus succeeded in getting gonzalez from valencia, their defense will be very strong because his performance in the Uruguay U-20 team was very good.

in the friendly match against madrid ago, juventus was lucky enough, with the arrival of new players it seems that juventus has a chance to win serie a again, they are a tough team, their first opponent is atalanta.

Inter Milan should have given more opportunities to this coach, even though last season they only became finalists in the Champions League and sat in 3rd place in Serie A, but in my opinion it is an achievement. Last season they still had a lot to improve, and in those conditions they were still able to compete in the top flight and also be in the final. I think Inter Milan should look more to the future or to the progress shown by him, because we all know that to bring a club to be the best and almost without any gaps is not easy, and must be a long journey.

Juventus have declined in recent seasons, and that is inseparable from the problems that occur, including their internal problems. now the situation is better than before, yes, even though they must still be tied to sanctions.
It's only a matter of days before we see the first week, I'm really looking forward to it.

Oh yeah before the competition starts, I want to hear who are the clubs that are the first favorites?

[dezoel]

There are many football observers doubting Napoli's appearance this season and they will have quite a hard time defending the Scudetto they got last season. Apart from losing several important pillars in the team and Napoli also lost a reliable tactician who had a better vision of playing. Rudi Garcia's arrival was not at the right moment because the transition process definitely takes time to perfect the team and this is the biggest test that Rudi Garcia has to face.

I am a little optimistic that Napoli will still be in the top five at the end of the season, but to defend the Scudetto I think it is impossible to defend. Because many other teams are currently also improving their squads by bringing in several potential players and Napoli's struggle will be much more difficult next season.

of course most will doubt Napoli performance in the summer while Garcia is not an experienced coach compared to Spalletti who is much better and even gave the Scudetto title in history that Napoli has never won but after the title was obtained Napoli fired Spalletti, very sad. one hand, for example, Garcia has a good strategy to defend Napoli title, it will not be easy and it takes time to unite the chemistry between coaches and players and it takes time for adaptation between players and coaches. although it will not give a guarantee of how Napoli will perform in the future, fans doubts are always on the coach and we'll see what Napoli will do in the future with Garcia.

Yeah is completely wired in Italian league because most of the top clubs are facing finances issues, and they are not able to spend as much which helps them for having quality players even their performance was good in UEFA but still things are not good enough which making things from bad to worse for them Napoli is surely now in transition situation with coach is new and few top ranked players are also left which is having his impact as well.

Now mostly are feeling they could be not in top four which is also clearly problem but good thing they are still had their champion player Osimhen which can bring some positive as he has done in last season now here Rudi Garcia is surely going to have tough job as now he is on for the defending of the Scudetto without any solid strategy and strong finances.

I actually doubt Napoli to be like last season and on the other hand I also want to see them the same as last season with all the consistency they showed. But indeed the thing that made them last season's Scudetto winners has been lost and they have to be driven by a new driver who will take them to victory again or even beyond that. Maybe Napoli can't do much because things like this are quite normal for a team that has started to rise since last season and there will always be changes following what happens to the club's self-development. Adaptation is important for Napoli at the moment and I will forgive them if they struggle enough next season.

In Serie A, there is no team that can truly dominate the league every season for a long time, because so far only Juventus has been able to dominate Serie A for 9 consecutive seasons. So yes, it would be a very natural thing if Napoli next season experienced a decline in performance or was unable to defend the title. Because after all, Napoli success last season won the Scudetto also because teams like Milan, Inter and Juventus also experienced a decline in performance. That way, last season Napoli did well to maintain its top position until Napoli won the Scudetto title last season.
