Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Yurkov]

This time Jose Mourinho got what wanted to get.  
Jose Mourinho is a great coach for any team but in the last season he didn't have a player to fill Dybala's place when he got injured and that's why this team couldn't have the good performance we were expecting to see from them in Europe League, but this time they got Lukaku in their teams. However, I think Lukaku is not in good form and made many mistakes this summer but I'm sure this palyer can help Roma in this season.

Yes, Jose Mourinho offers to Roma a unique style of coaching abilities despite his reputation for being tough. I believe the most recent 7-0 defeat to Empoli should serve as a reminder of the value of a good defense in football. I Think Teams face the risk of frequently conceding goals without it, as Empoli did. They risk losing their Serie A status if they don't halt this habit. His vicious demeanor only becomes worse when Mourinho's team loses. Roma excellent win is heartening, but their uneven goal scoring continues to be a cause for concern. They are unlikely to contend with Inter Milan for the title this year, especially given Inter strong start and the acquisition of Romelu Lukaku to their starting lineup.

The current situation of the Roma team can be said roughly. The team did not perform very well last season. In my opinion the team needs to add some new good players.

Alarm bells are now ringing for Milan. In this situation, it can be seen in matches where there is no harmony in the team. In the match they played against Inter, big mistakes from the defense cost them 5 goals. Of course, Giroud is a good striker, but we have to accept that he is also getting older and cannot be at his former performance. Leao is playing very well and he will probably leave Milan at the end of the year.

Apart from the match against Inter, Milan have been very impressive just that Inter performed alot better than them and they're still yet to recover against the 5-1 defeat but i think they'll bounce back and the team would get back to their normal performance sooner, maybe in their next match at home against Verona, because i expect Milan to deal with the visiting team with a good score line.
 
 I believe Giroud still has alot to offer at Milan this season before he resigns or so and Acmilan would try as much as possible to hold on to Leao and even if they let him go next summer it's not going to be for a cheaper fee, they'll really want to cash in heavily on him and in return  replace him with another quality players or a younger that would continue from Leao's legacy in the team

Yes Jose is a great coach, he is rude but good.

Empoli defeat with a score of 7-0 is very humiliating and clearly highlights the importance of a solid defense in football. A real defence.

A robust defense is essential to protect your goal and limit your opponents opportunities to score. Empoli go mad with Roma play and without an effective defense, a team risks conceding goals frequently, and it happen for total 7.

I think that Empoli seriously risks going to Serie B if they dont reverse the trend.

Jose Mourinho has a rough character, but the appearance of that character will be seen if his team loses because he is like that. Indeed, this big victory made Roma stop bad trend and return to winning ways. However, can they maintain their pace consistently in every match because Roma is often unstable in their playing performance. Sometimes they can play quite well but they have great difficulty scoring goals.

This season Roma will not be able to compete with Inter Milan in the race for the title, because Inter Milan has progressed quite well this season by sweeping the first 4 matches with wins. I think that since Roma succeeded in bringing in Lukaku, their front line strength has become more aggressive and I hope that Jose Mourinho can polish Lukaku into a truly aggressive player who can score lots of goals this season.

This time Jose Mourinho got what wanted to get.

However, I think Lukaku is not in good form and made many mistakes this summer but I'm sure this palyer can help Roma in this season.

Is that mean if roma was only relying on dybala? What i can understand from what you have said above if roma was nothing without dybala. That proves that if roma is not good enough at this moment caused by its performance being determined by a single player that was playing for the club. Lukaku can do nothing once it will face strong club like his former club last season intermilan. People are yelling roma is coming back to the right track after it was won against empoli.
Keep in your mind if this is empoli, it's the worst club in serie a. People will start to blame roma again once it will face another loss against stronger team than empoli.

Everything about roma is just about instability.

Although the win came against a club that was losing, it was a good morale-booster. It was also their first win of the season, which is exactly what they need right now. But I'm not quite satisfied with this win myself, somehow I think that a big win is no better than a tight goal difference win that they get consistently and they get in every game. I hope this is the first step for them to continue their positive trend.
Jose Mourinho is an experienced coach there's no doubt about that, but I've noticed a dip lately. Whether it's because the majority of the players he has are not up to what he wants, or something else.

While you are concerned about Milan losing by 5 goals, why are you making a big deal about Giroud and or Milan forwards. Because after all, if the problem is about a big defeat by 5 goals, then you should be concerned about Milan defense and not Milan attacking line. After all, if Milan still entrusts it to Giroud as a forward then I think it doesn't matter either. Because yes, it looks like Milan still have productive forwards because Milan don't just rely on Giroud only. That way, then of course it is appropriate for Milan to be able to improve the defense and also the midfield, of course to make Milan attackers and defense even better.

AC Milan is not in bad form and I can't understand why some people think after the game they lost against Inter Milan, and because of the results they got in that game we should say AC Milan is in danger.
AC Milan is still racing on top of the table in Serie A which is good enough for them, also they got a 0-0 result against Newcaslte while we know Newcaslte is not a weak team.,
Regarding the game between Inter Milan and AC Milan, we should not forget some layers in AC Milan were in bad form and injured.

AC Milan flop against Inter Milan and conceded 5 goals because of the blunders they committed in the game. Most gamblers used this medium to predict in favour of Newcastle, everyone was shocked by the superb performance portrayed by these Stefano Pioli men, they actually missed out on big chances specifically pointing to Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud, perhaps they did their best. Newcastle boss, Eddie Howe got a good results at San Siro in the opening R1. It's definitely not easy to watch EPL club competiting with an elite team in Seria A and holding them to a draw points means improvement on the side of the magpies.

I think the big defeat in the Derby match against Inter Milan had a big impact on AC Milan's performance, and what they experienced in the opening UCL match was quite detrimental for the AC Milan team.
Newcastle's performance was actually not good but AC Milan failed to take advantage of it, especially AC MIlan's front line who played very badly.
For a long time, the problem with the AC Milan team was that they were unable to maintain consistency and they often made mistakes in several important matches.

Actually, AC Milan failure when they lost against Inter Milan in yesterday's derby match will not affect Milan's performance in yesterday's Champions League match, even though many say that mentally, maybe AC Milan is a little less confident, but in fact the draw against Newcastle is a good start for me because Milan is capable appearing consistently in yesterday UCL match, when they were unable to score a goal, they would prefer not to concede so that the defense line was strengthened and this was not a failure or carelessness, but rather, Milan only competed consistently and carefully.

Milan next match will be against Verona, which will be AC Milan opportunity to get 3 additional points to immediately catch up with Juventus.

The current situation of the Roma team can be said roughly. The team did not perform very well last season. In my opinion the team needs to add some new good players.

Roma has been buying some players during the transfer seasons. I remember that when mourinho has been adding some players into the clubs. Lukaku has also become one of players already borrowed from cheslea.
I think that if roma just need to maximizing the potential owned by its current players. There's no need to add more player at this moment.

Roma have a lot of good players but so far their play looks bad. Maybe it's because it's the beginning of the season and the coach has the opportunity to adjust the team. Last season they didn't play very well in Serie A either, but did well in the Europa League. Now they will have a busy schedule and maybe the game will stabilise.

I think that if supported by adequate finances, Roma management and Mourinho will buy players when the transfer market opens. Because we can see how Inter Milan, AC Milan, Napoli and Juventus are doing this season, it is difficult for AS Roma to compete with the row of clubs I mentioned earlier. Lastly, Roma also lost to one of them, namely Milan, it makes sense I think Mourinho wants his squad to have more quality players.

For now, Mourinho has no choice but to utilize existing resources, regarding Lukaku it seems that Roma does not have a permanent purchase clause at the end of the season from Chelsea. The most realistic thing for Roma is to finish in the UCL zone at the end of the season, although it is too early to predict, the fact is that it is still difficult for Roma to challenge for the Scudetto.

After all, the transfer window is closed and of course, we can't expect any more about additions or subtractions. But basically, AS Roma will still not be able to compete well in the top zone or at least in the top four. Because after all, after two seasons passed also the fact that Mourinho only managed to make AS Roma good at the beginning of the season in the last two seasons. Currently, it is Mourinho third season at AS Roma and perhaps also, will be Mourinho last season at AS Roma, because Mourinho contract is recorded to expire at the end of this season or in 2024. But unfortunately, on his last chance at AS Roma but it seems this season AS Roma started the season badly and not as good as in the previous two seasons. So yes, with these results then I personally feel nothing can be expected for AS Roma, because they do not have a stable performance.

[bitgolden]

I think it's just a matter of how the players can find chemistry and this must be cultivated more deeply so that what they want can come true. Mourinho will certainly not be quickly satisfied with Empoli's previous victory and he must return to hard training so that his players can be more solid. The absence of Pellegrini and Abraham is also quite impactful and I feel that these two players are important figures for the team to achieve maximum results. Roma's European league match will take place soon but I am quite sure they can win again and continue to be consistent in their next Serie A match this week against Torino.

This match will be held at the Bolshaya Sportivnaya stadium and Roma will playing away from home. The talak victory over Empoli yesterday should created a new spirit for Roma to become stronger to face the match they will face, the match against Sheriff this time I hope Roma can win it because there are many Roma fans who want Roma to bounce back.
Jose Mourinho must make his clubs defense even stronger and be able to appear impressive and maintain consistency in order to winner the matches.

Roma is a good enough team to have a chance to win most games, and this is one of them. They may not look amazing at the league but they are quite amazing when it comes to Europe and I am sensing that they could get a win here too. What I really wonder about them though is if they will be able to actually do nice at the league once.

I mean they are good enough to finish 6th, that is the limit they have, if they finish 6th then they did neither bad nor good, if they finish lower than 6th (which they have) then that will be bad, and if they finish better than 6th that would be good for them. How will they finish the season very much important because it decides where they are going to play next season as well.

That way, then of course it is appropriate for Milan to be able to improve the defense and also the midfield, of course to make Milan attackers and defense even better.

We should be concerned about a big team like AC Milan being humiliated by a club in its class. The goal margin and the response of the club attack should be a concern to the fans and management. We could see the weakness of the attack in the games against Newcastle in the Champions league when they wasted so many chances. We couldn't determine the strength of the defense because Newcastle United didn't pose any threat in the attack. The conclusion is that AC Milan is not currently at its best.  

The current situation of the Roma team can be said roughly. The team did not perform very well last season. In my opinion the team needs to add some new good players.

Roma can boast of some good players. We saw Dybala who came back from injury putting up a splendid performance in the club's last game against Empoli. Lukaku was also potent scoring his first goal for Napoli and giving some superb passes. There is always a need to add more players since Roma is also featuring in the Europa League. More quality players need to be available to cover up in cases like sickness, injury, or fatigue. Their next game is tomorrow against Moldova's FC Sheriff Tiraspol.

Yes, Jose Mourinho offers to Roma a unique style of coaching abilities despite his reputation for being tough.

I Think Teams face the risk of frequently conceding goals without it, as Empoli did. They risk losing their Serie A status if they don't halt this habit. His vicious demeanor only becomes worse when Mourinho's team loses. Roma excellent win is heartening, but their uneven goal scoring continues to be a cause for concern. They are unlikely to contend with Inter Milan for the title this year, especially given Inter strong start and the acquisition of Romelu Lukaku to their starting lineup.

What's almost a shocker is the efficiency that Roma played with. Seriously, I am not sure when I have seen the last time that a team has 9 shots on target and scores 7 times. That's crazy and this game was important as I think Mourinho had his first doubts after their bad start into the season. But this doesn't mean they will continue like this as they have gone from great to bad within just week as well. But for the time being this must have been a relief for everyone there.

[Distraction]

Dybala is very valuable for Roma. I can comfortably say that he is the most valuable one now. He has made a great return with his effort in the Empoli match also. His performance will be important for Roma this season. Because they are expected to make improvement in the league and they need every single one of their solid players.

This could be Mourinho's last season at the same time. You know he is in his last year of his contract already. If he doesn't improve I don't think the board would think of extending his contract.

By saying improvement I mean finishing the season in top 4. Otherwise there won't be any change compared to last season.

If Daybala was released in the transfer market last summer to Chelsea, it would be increasingly difficult for Roma to compete in Serie A. The addition of Lukaku has not made Mourinho squad completely stable, if Il Lupi fails to finish in the Champions League zone, it is possible that Roma management will not renew his contract Mourinho. Even though he is full of experience and achievements, Mourinho cannot do much at the capital club due to inadequate financial factors.

Mourinho best achievement with Roma was winning the UEFA Conference League in the 2022 season, where Roma became the first winners in Europe third caste competition. This season the Europa League will be proof for Mourinho, where Liverpool is the favorite club this time.

[Raflesia]

Last season they didn't play very well in Serie A either, but did well in the Europa League. Now they will have a busy schedule and maybe the game will stabilise.

Actually looking at what Roma are doing this season and comparing with previous seasons they tend to be stagnant and there is no change at all.
Their problems also still look the same in the matches they always do by not being able to provide good things, especially for the attack line.
Fortunately last week they managed to win quite strikingly and this is something very good for them because with this result there is a hope from Mou to be able to survive more in the upcoming matches. It's just that there are doubts too, of course, when seeing their performance is still unstable, this indicates that they also cannot be fully believed to be different even with last week's big win.

[Velvet78]

Empoli manager Paolo Zanetti has been sacked after the huge loss against Roma. I think this was the right call for the team. Because so far they haven't collected any points and they have conceded 12 goals while scoring 0. This is just the worst kind of a start you can make honestly. They should be able to do better to stay away from the relegation zone again.

Aside from that Inter are the only team without point loss so far. They are really striking in the Serie A this season. However they struggled too much against Real Sociedad in the Champions League last night. They should consider themselves lucky for scoring the equalizer in the last minutes.

[Furious 7]

The current situation of the Roma team can be said roughly. The team did not perform very well last season. In my opinion the team needs to add some new good players.

Looking for alternative players is not the right answer if you look at the financial condition of Roma at this time especially for now the transfer window has also been closed so there will be nothing to do especially for the addition of players until the winter transfer reopens.
At the moment they only have to focus on the players they currently have by maximizing their existing performance because basically it will be very much more useful.
With the presence of Lukaku in this attack line is a new hope for them, even though Lukaku is still not playing well but it is not wrong to expect a return to form from Lukaku who was lost when in Milan last season.

Italian participation in this round of Champions League wasn't successful anyway, maybe only for Napoli which won their game, also in the last minutes of the game.
Inter got a draw vs Real Sociedad, Milan got a draw also but vs Newcastle making things more interesting inside the groups.
By the way even Lazio was able to bring a draw from an away game by the header of the goalkeeper.

Roma has changed in a good way in this season they had more power this time.
The Roma we saw against Empoli was really amazing and unlike the last season, they had a much better performance and better forwards. In the last season, Dybala was the only option for Muriniho and obviously, he couldn't find any alternative players for Dybala, but this time gets hired Lukaku and Azmoun who can help them in the next Serie A games and make this team a scary openment for other teams.
