Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[beerlover]

Inter Milan is far ahead of its rivals for now after being able to beat Atalanta with a score of 4-0 without reply in Serie A. Now Inter Milan is starting to find it difficult for its rivals to catch up so it is quite possible to ensure that it can become Serie A champions this season , and for Atalanta now their position is starting to become less secure because Atalanta is only two points away from Roma who are eyeing the top five positions in the Serie A standings. Apart from that, Bologna is also starting to improve so Atalanta itself may also find it difficult to get the top four position which is currently occupied by Bologna.

Atalanta's defeat made the competition for 4th place with Bologna and Roma even fiercer, because these three teams only have a few points difference so that all three teams have the same chance of finishing in the top 4 of the final Serie A standings.
Meanwhile, Inter MIlan is now further ahead in points and no team is able to catch them anymore because in terms of quality and consistency, Inter MIlan is quite good and it cannot be denied that Inter Milan is able to ensure this season's Scudetto early.

It will definitely be a very fierce one, looks like all of the teams are quite close to each other. At this point it feels like 4th place is the biggest competition in the league, we already know first place will be Inter, second place could be Juventus by the looks of it, Milan has a slight chance as well, but that's the second and third options that much we know.

However, there could be some real competition for the fourth until the end of the season and that should be the way we look at it. I understand that we are not going to see the result anytime soon because there are still some games left, but we will definitely have some fun watching their games and seeing how they will be doing. Betting on it is fun too, makes it even more fun to follow.

Inter Milan does not need to be talked about anymore, they are a strong club and difficult to beat with the acquisition of many goals making this team will remain strong, I see how Inter Milan's game is now more slick.

Now this is an interesting positioning to qualify for the Champion League, will Bologna survive? Their hunch is still not safe anything behind Atalanta and Roma can shift it but this will be the struggle for champions league tickets will be even more fierce and Bologna could be worthy.

Napoli? That's already behind after the departure of their coach.

That right, Inter are very close to winning the Scudetto and it is very likely that Inzaghi fleet will continue to be consistent until the season ends. The victory over Atalanta made their gap wider with their closest competitor in the standings, namely Juventus, 12 points seemed very impossible for Juventus to catch up with.

I think Bologna will be able to stay in the top four of the standings, next week Bologna will face Atalanta directly in securing the Champions League zone. If Bologna and Atalanta end in a draw, then Roma will be very lucky, because they will find the momentum to cut points and compete fiercely to appear in the UCL. Considering that Roma will face Monza, I think it's a good opportunity for Roma.

Regarding Napoli, I think they are far behind in the race for tickets to the UCL, even though they won a convincing match against Sassuolo yesterday. Coach changes have been made several times, but it seems they are not getting the instant results they were hoping for. Finishing in 6th or 7th place is still possible, with 12 matches remaining before the season ends.

The bad news for Paul Pogba is he is going to be away from football for four years which means his professional career is over and there's no hope for him anymore.
~snip~

He is going to be 31 on 15th of March this year. With 4 years out, he'll be 35 and I'm not sure how his motivation will be then. This might be it, for his playing career. Already he's been injury prone and barely playing a season. This only makes things much much worse. He was caught taking testosterone and usually, the plea deal would've been half the time, that'd be 2 years. Which would be the same for accidental intake. Don't know why he didn't go through those methods.

The bad news for Paul Pogba is he is going to be away from football for four years which means his professional career is over and there's no hope for him anymore. Paul Pogba is currently a 30-year-old player and he was playing for Juventus until he got banned because of doping and even Juvenstos was disappointed about their player.
However, during the time when Paul Pogba was paly for his team, he had a good performance but now his career is over and he should start thinking about getting retired from football because of his age and being suspended for four years.


 

I was afraid of things to come to this point about his ban and here we are...    Pogba brought his end by himself so I'm not going to take pity on him. His career was already not in good condition before this ban because of getting injuries over and over again. Now this four-year ban could mean the end of his career probably.

Juventus shouldn't have signed him back in the first place just because he was free agent. Because he was already getting injured too often at Manchester United. Good luck to Pogba about his future from now on.

I was surprised when I saw the news of Paul Pogba's four-year doping ban. It is a pity to see that the football career of Paul Pogba is coming to an end in such a sad way. No club will want to sign Paul Pogba after his ban because he will be 34 years old. You cannot blame Juventus for signing Paul Pogba because they were trying to build a strong squad.

It seems that this is the end of his career.
It is deeply regretted..
He didn't start his career easily, and he really shined at that time.
However, everything had to end very unfortunately because of this case.
Hopefully this can be a very valuable lesson for all football players.

I think Bologna will be able to stay in the top four of the standings, next week Bologna will face Atalanta directly in securing the Champions League zone. If Bologna and Atalanta end in a draw, then Roma will be very lucky, because they will find the momentum to cut points and compete fiercely to appear in the UCL.

For this time, Bologna has been in the top four, but we are stil not sure enough if they can stay or not. Indeed, next match willl be the decisive match between Bologna and Atalanta, the one that wins the match, that is the one that will be in the top four.
Wowww, this is quite interesting to see the ompetition of Serie A (besides the first standing, because Inter are unrivaled at the moment.)

Based on his statement I think getting an appeal as he has done is good if it turns out well for him I believe the years can be reduced or he can still get away with the ban but if he doesn't he may decide to retire after the ban considering what he may be think then or he can still decide to beat the imagination of his fans by playing may be 2 to 3 season before his retirement but that will be dependent on how his injury case may be then if he's free from injury he can still secure a contract with big clubs cause he's a good player.

It is very unfortunate that this once shining young talent finally had to leave football in the next 4 years after being proven guilty of doping and Paul Pogba should start considering retiring within that very long period of time. Juventus was very disadvantaged by this case and after buying him from Manchester United he was not even able to contribute fully to the club because he was just going through a period of injury.

Finally we can see a big win for Napoli after a few matches at the beginning of the season until now they are playing like back to the factory suit where they have a lot of problems that make their performance drop drastically.
Today's unanimous win gives a lot of hope for their resurgent momentum to try and get back to Champions League or Europa League contention.
Osimhen scored a hat trick and Kvaratskhelia recorded a brace in today's match which adds to the hope that their attack is starting to improve again.
Although this result can't bring them to the top of the table, at least with this result Napoli can regain momentum so that their performance returns as before.

Yeah at least Napoli stopped the bad results in the last 3 matches and I think Napoli still has the ambition to reach 5th place even though it's not easy, they still keep trying. Next week Napoli will play against Juventus will they be able to score more goals or will they be defeated? this is certainly not easy to predict because Juventus has been unpredictable lately. On March 13, Napoli will also play the second leg against Barcelona in the Champions League we know they will prioritize this one so there is a possibility they will miss some games in Serie A to get enough rest.

By the way, I just realized that Osimhen scored 3 goals in this match and has scored 11 goals so far, this is different from his achievements last season when Osimhen won the golden boot, I don't know what caused the performance to decrease drastically even though he was not injured. I'm curious how he plays against Barcelona whether he can score 3 more goals?

The previous 3 matches for Serie A were like a coach transition even though it is still continuing because seeing from the previous results where they lost and drew Napoli were still coached by Mazzari but for the last 2 matches where the draw against Cagliari and won over Sassuolo yesterday it has been commanded by Calzona and in my opinion for 3 matches in all competitions (Serie A and the first leg of the Champions League) for Calzona it is a good thing and deserves to be a coach even though there will definitely remain concerns with the new coach.
At the moment the chance to be in the top 4 is still there even though they seem to have to give up the Scudetto but to be in the top 4 it is still possible if they continue to be able to appear consistent in the remaining matches at this time.

For Osimhen, he has indeed experienced a decline in performance this season and it is very pronounced. there are several problems for Osimhen this season such as when injuries and several other internal problems that interfere with performance.
But at least with a hat trick in this match of course it is a good thing for him.

Pogba hoped to recover from his injury quickly by taking this drug, but everything went unexpectedly and it was a shame that his career would end like that. A ban from playing for the next four years will make Pogba lose most of his individual skills, and it could be said that Pogba will have difficulty finding his best playing form if he decides to play again. It could be that the sanctions received will encourage Pogba to decide to retire, or Pogba can continue his career in a less competitive league such as the Saudi Pro League after the sanctions expire.

Losing Pogba means Allegri rotation options at Juventus are even more minimal, and currently Juventus has failed to compete with Inter Milan in the hunt for trophies. Since returning to Juventus, Pogba has suffered frequent injuries. Due to the doping case, Juventus management has now terminated Poga contract. Even though it is reported that Pogba will appeal his case to the Arbitration Court, I assume the sanctions will not change.

What happened to Napoli? have they risen from their ashes? Did they wake up from lethargy? Did the new coach give him a magical potion? Incredibly they are winning 1-6 against Sassuolo who unfortunately is not going through a good moment and fight not to retreat in Serie B

Looks like a new Napoli is here, The Magic of Calzona...
It's great to have a team back with a high-scoring mentality.
Napoli has rediscovered its form and returned to competitive
and winning ways since the return of Osimhen from AFCON.  No Victor, No Napoli.
Sadly, he has no interest in this team and he already wants to leave at the end of the year.

I hope that this Calzona magic lasts for a long time, because Napoli don't deserve the position they currently occupy in the standings, they are still the Italian champions and it is not very pleasant to see them even outside the top four positions. Osimhen wanted to leave last summer and most likely we won't see him again next year at Napoli

What I was wondering is what Jose Mourinho would say about Paul Pogba. My full support for him truly,as I do believe he'll definitely get this sentence shortened or still pardoned you feel me?

Breaks my heart to see such a vibe in it's beautiful state sentenced already. Just as I've said today, there'll always be more stories to tell than to just completely believe about whatever has been said about Paul Pogba. I can't wait to hear Paul's part of the stories.
During the least stages .
Nobody would expect that kind of matters from  Paul Pogba..... I hope he be fine and comes out stronger from it.

[Egii Nna]

What is your opinion about Napoli? It seems like they have fallen off a lot. I believe that should have performed far better compared to what they have done. Even if we look at just the last 5 matches from them, we will see that they have not done well at all. they only have one win In the last 5 matches.  that is not good at all from the team which is the defending champion of the title. I also believe that it is just a matter of time before Osimhen leaves the team. Because I don't think that he is going to be the player that he wants to be if he stays in the Napoli team. Still not certain about which club is actually going to get him.  but in my opinion he is leaving for sure.  unless somehow  Napoli manages to actually Defend the title successfully,  which seems to be almost impossible at this moment.

Napoli has lost the quality it had last season and it will be difficult for them to regain that form. Winning a game in five matches doesn't show the right will to compete for the Seria A title. One of the reasons for this poor run was the absence of Victor Osimhen due to his engagement in the African Nations Cup.

He is back and they have started having positive results. In the last three games, there has been some improvement. They played a draw with Barcelona in the UCL second round, would have won the game with Cagliari if not for the late equalizer, and got a convincing win yesterday against Sassuolo. The return of the Nigerian striker has added more quality to the team and it has also been seen that the partnership between him and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been rekindled.

It will be difficult for Napoli to defend the scudetto, they might just get a European competition qualification. Except Napoli can make it to the Champions League next season or win the UCL, I doubt if Victor will be able to remain in the club. He might also be attracted if they give him a very lucrative contract. However, the club is preparing to make money from the sale of the striker next season and the striker wants to leave to face new challenges elsewhere, maybe the EPL.

Osimhen is a good asset to Napoli as a striker. He is just a golden opportunity for Napoli, and everyone knows that. As you have mentioned, when he was absent, Napoli were just busy losing games, but what was the result of their games when he returned? They started winning massively. Just take a look at the game they played against Sassuolo. Osimhen had three good goals, which triggered their point in the table. Many have lost hope in Napoli that they are going nowhere, but when the best striker returns, things start changing, and Napoli starts getting a better chance of trusting themselves.
 
So to me, I don’t think Napoli will like to give Osimhen out for money unless he is that one who likes the offer and decides to leave Napoli, but if Napoli tries to maintain him, they will start getting more victories in the future. His name implies that Victor Osimhen stands for victory, so Napoli will not pray to lose that victor carrying all the victories. 

[lalabotax]

Osimhen has scored many goals again. Calzona can make him to play comfortable again. It is different with Rudi Garcia and Mazzarri, Osimhen sometime played from the bench at that time. Now, the new coach make him to play always in the starting lineup. The new coach trusts him more, Osimhen deserves to play as the main striker of Napoli. With the support from the new coach, Osimhen seems to be motivated again.

If Napoli can play better and keep winning in the remaining matches, I think Napoli can finish in the top 5. They still has the chance to play in Europa League for the next season. But I think it won't be easy because they need to compete with AS Roma, Fiorentina, Atalanta, and Lazio. These teams also played quite well recently.

Despite all of the critics and bs, Victor Oshime has coke back up to  show how and what he really can offer the club. Rudi Garcia sent them to a bad position and they should have done something much earlier to combat all of these happenings.
One would think they're doing well but I don't see them qualifying for the Champions League Competition next season as they've nkt attained the heights needed to get that.

It cannot be denied that the tension between the player and his previous coach had quite an influence on his performance and contribution to the team. And if they match this time, then this could be a revival for Napoli, even though it's quite late because there are only a few games left. But at least, that doesn't make them worse off anymore. Hopefully this is not only in yesterday's match but also in future matches.

Osimhen has scored many goals again.

I think Sassuolo is a very easy team to beat, but at least this is a good start for Francesco Calzona to make his players play great and give Napoli a win. Hopefully, Francesco Calzona can encourage Napoli's important players to give their best contribution and always win in every match so they can catch up and return to the top five positions in the standings.

Yes, indeed Sasuolo is not the strong and troublesome team it should be. However, what we appreciate is because previously, Napoli were not that good even though their opponent was a weak team at the bottom too. Because of that, this is a very special result for them, a very memorable achievement this season. ha ha ha

Napoli in form, there's average teams that don't dare competing because it will be for waste. I'll keep making emphasis on this particular matter. Since Luciano Spalleti left Napoli, the club have never been the same and we have watch the poo results generated by the team. Victor Osimhen didn't not decline in performance because he had many hurdles to deal with and giving him for improvement is excellent. Perhapes the new Napoli headcoach, Francesco Calzona will serves as aides for the Nigeria International, retaining good position in the club.

Luciano Spalleti was the background problem that started affecting Napoli’s team, he started using selfish interest in making his selections, the management sacked him and signed the new manager Walter Mazzarr.
The new manager is yet to get the complete stability of the players which is why their performance was not in good shape, but as it stands now, he has started gaining momentum to move the team to the level they deserve because Napoli did not belong to the bottom ten in the Italian Seria A.

PSG was indeed able to pass the last 16 stage to advance to the next round even though the second leg match was at home to Real Sociedad. However, what needs to be seen here is that the level of difficulty for PSG must be there to get through all of this because there is no easy way in the Champions League to get through round after round. I think Real Sociedad will continue to show their skills in the second leg when they host PSG even though Real Sociedad was two goals behind in the first leg.

Most likely socidad may not be able to get pass this stage of the champions league because they are been faves by a team thats way superior than they are and this includes both in strength, form and depth so their chances around Real Madrid continues to be slim and such that they are most likely to not succeed or get pass this stage but then Real Madrid wouldn't and shouldn't take them for granted so they don't get to make qualifications turn out too difficult for them much more than it should have been normally, as the first leg was a huge success then most definitely the second leg which will happen to be their last shot, they will be giving only but the best to make sure they stay ahead and proceed unto the next stage of the champions league.

Beyond this stage I think Madrid may gradually beginning to face more tough and serious teams because so far it's been looking much like an easy game for them but they will soon get to where it will become more of a fierce battle as the trophy is been contended for even by the current defending champions.

Napoli showed an inconsistent graph so far and even though Napoli won in the last fight I haven't seen any sign of improvement I mean maybe it's just luck. This week on March 4 Napoli will face Juventus, this will be a difficult match for both teams we cannot predict who will win because both teams won in the last fight. There is a possibility that this fight will end up a draw because both teams do not target anything Juventus are safe in the 2nd place and Napoli need more effort to go up to the 5th place, so a draw may be fair to both teams.

Intentional act from him, there is no need to have empathy toward him. Pogba has been doing it by himself and he is not must able to accept the punishment. Pogba will be 4 years with no football and no money. This is not an accident but pure his mistakes. I think that as a football and he was not even stupid enough to know if that was a doping.
I have seen that how pogba try to do self-defense but all of his alibi failed to pursuade the investigators. Pogba was good at playing football but he has wasted his talent. No more chance for him to join in the football after he will have passed the punishment for his unappreciated act.

Pogba shall forget football for 4 years. It may still be possible if he will move to the non european competition but let's see what's gonna be his next decision to save his career as a footballer.

Napoli won the last series after many years but year they are far behind so i also agree with you that they can't do better because they are behind in huge points which they won't be able to cover. Juventus are very good team this time last 3 years ago 9 consecutive champions in Serie A. And since then I am a big fan of them. Juventus is in a very good position this year too and can be expected to win the trophy. But Inter will be a big rival for Juventus because Inter is 12 points ahead of Juventus still now
