Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[TelolettOm]

The initial good start for DeRossi was provided by the calendar - three games in a row with teams from the very bottom of the standings. Then Roma really became better, at least more interesting - they scored a lot and conceded a lot. But the irony is that those who praised Mourinho's sacking suddenly realize that Roma are finishing the season worse than under him  

It's been a few months since de Rossi was hired to replace Mou. And indeed, Roma's performance has become better, although it has not been highly consistent, but at least on several occasions, they have been quite good and surprising. And they also managed to enter the semi-finals of the Europa League, even though they still lost the first leg against Leverkusen. But at least, this is quite a good achievement, considering how Roma performed at the start of the season until the end. It's really sad that Roma is even in the middle-clubs zone of Serie A.

Indeed, de Rossi cannot immediately change Roma into a top 3 club or above, because de Rossi's struggle has only been going on for a few months. And of course, their target is not that high, that's reality and quite logical.

And now, when Roma can finally be shifted again by Atalanta and return to 6th place, it certainly makes de Rossi worried about their performance and also their position in Serie A. Because there will definitely be more and more pressure being put on de Rossi, especially from the fans. , because he is the one who is responsible for Rome so far.

[Mustang Shelby]

De Rossi started it. He is trying to make Roma perform better than this and he knows if they want to keep racing in the top side of the Serie A or playing in the Champions League they will need to buy more and better players. While the budget for Roma is limited buy it seems De Rossi wants to hire Federico Chiesa.
Federico Chiesa is playing for Juventus but he couldn't show a good performance from himself with Allgeri, that's why maybe he agreed to leave. Juventus wants to extend the contract of Federico Chiesa until 2028 but some other teams like Roma are linked to this player.

AS Roma needs more signings if they intends to improve in their performance this season and we know everything comes with a price. The Seria A becomes tougher and we should just calmly comprehend the activities going on in the system. AS Roma signing Daniele De Rossi, was this a good decision from the board? Maybe yes or no but what I do know is, De Rossi is competent and doing his best in first season to bring out the best from AS Roma. As for Federico Chiesa, he's currently the best player Juventus and also Italy, he's skilled with the ball and have accomplished alot during his prime.

I think De Rossi directed it well. If Mourinho had stayed this year, maybe he wouldn't have been this good. The players also respect De Rossi and try to implement his tactics on the field. The more successful they are in this, the more likely they are to move up the ranks in the future. The leader in Serie A is clear, but the European race continues in the lower ranks.

But the irony is that those who praised Mourinho's sacking suddenly realize that Roma are finishing the season worse than under him 

The high expectations on DeRossi was very alarming but I always wished the team can finish in a better place this season. A sack of a coach and a replacement for him should have collectively made the team finish in a better position than they were before. Mourinho was not a bad choice to me and his sack came as a surprise to me, so I think they should have let him be after a wonderful season with them last year. Even a champions league qualification could have been better. We wait to see how they end the season with three matches left to be played by them.

its obvious roma has lesser chance for europa league or UCL this season. I remind you that if atalanta has 1 unplayed match. It means club can get three points as long as it will win the unplayed match. Roma shall have won all of remaining games to ensure it will have a chance to qualify for the europa league or UCL next season.
It's really sick for all of people who did support mourinho to leave from the club if roma will not able to get into the UCL or europa laegue.

[Hirose UK]

I am really sad to see that this De Rossi period of Roma and their improvement took so little and they suddenly started to be not that great again. I mean they played so well when he first came in, went up in positions, and now looking at it they are back to sixth place.

A team that could have been fourth and do so well, ended up being sixth because of the last few weeks and that is not really that great for them, I hope that they get better and they do not end up with losing much more points. Very few games left, I do not know how they could recover from this and I am fearing that we are going to end up with something that will take some time. I get that we are going to see them be better when De Rossi gets the transfers he wants, but not sure if they will be top four next season either.

Last season Roma finished in Serie A with 6th place and saved 63 points and currently Roma is also temporarily in 6th place with 60 points, maybe in the remaining matches they can still get points and finish in 5th place considering that they are still level with Atalanta.
Roma and Atalanta each have 60 points and this is good opportunity for Roma to finish better this season even though their performance is not that good with several defeats and draws.
It just that I think their bad performance occurred because the team was so focused on being able to perform optimally in the Europa League semifinals considering that their opponent was Leverkusen, but in the first leg they still lost at home.
DeRossi has worked as hard as possible but the reality is that they have to suffer quite bitterly, consecutive defeats and draws plus the defeat at home to oppose Leverkusen makes DeRossi considered very bad.
I don't know whether in the future he will remain Roma coach or if there is an option to change coaches, but there no harm in trying to stay in one full season.

It is very likely that Roma can take Atalanta position after the second leg of the European League competition is completed.
some people will ask why I say this but this is very fair for me with reasonable reasons if Roma will definitely fail to progress to the final round of the European league because the opponent they face is really very difficult to face and when Roma fails in the European league will definitely focus more on the remaining series A matches.
meanwhile, if Atalanta manages to get rid of Marseille, it will definitely pass the final round and will prioritize the European League title because if it loses its ticket to the European League next season it won't be a problem for Atalanta because if in the final round it can get the European League title, Atalanta will automatically get a ticket to UCL next season.

and that is the reason I say that Roma has a big chance of getting into the top 5 if Atalanta manages to qualify for the final round.

Both teams has same points now but Atalanta still have 1 postponed match and if Atalanta can win from that match then Atalanta will have 63 points which mean they will have 3 points above to Roma but don't mean Roma chances to finish at 5th place will be closed because Serie A still have 3 matches remaining before this season ended so everything is still possible to happend and my predictions is the team who will finish at 5th place probably will be determined at the end of this season so it's interesting to know whether it Roma or Atalanta

According to the schedules next weekend Roma will fight against Atalanta and this is good chances for Roma because if they can win from Atalanta then Roma will be taking over 5th place from Atalanta but both teams will be very busy this week because before this match they will playing at Europa League but it won't be easy to stole points from Atalanta because at home Atalanta quite strong and during this season Atalanta only lost 3 times for Serie A matches at home and both teams previously has been met at Roma home ground on January this year and they were playing draw so looking forward to see who is the winner of this match later but my prediction is Atalanta can able to beat Roma

In my opinion, the players that have been brought in are much better, of all the lines that were brought in during the Morinho era, they were the players chosen by Morinho so it is not quite possible that As Roma will not be able to make changes, the big possibility is whether De Rossi will be able to bring As Roma to win the Serie  Next season, with the direction given by De Rossi, in my opinion, they will not be able to bring As Roma to the top 4 positions in the class, they often have difficulty in their own rhythm of play.

Napoli failed to used their opportunity well to achieve victory from Udinese home, because there was a lot of opportunity for their strikers to use to score goals from the first half but they missed used them that made the first half to ended up draw 0-0. Udinese players really stood on their ground to challenge Napoli in this match not to score more than 1 goal from the match, because their defense was functioning well and their midfield was very good to make the match difficult for Napoli, which they did to reduced the strength of Napoli in the second half. Many people thought that Napoli will going to maintain the one goal till the end of the match to achieve victory from Udinese, but it was a surprised strategy seen Udinese using extra time to equalized the goal 1-1 draw to share points with Napoli to frustrated their plan .

Actually, Napoli have played quite well. But unfortunately Napoli was careless at the end of the match. Udinese was also quite good at blocking every attack made by Napoli. And Udinese did not lose their enthusiasm to equalize until the last minute. And as a result, Udinese dramatically managed to equalize the score in the match. But I think if Udinese could have been braver in building attacks from the start then maybe they could have even scored an earlier equaliser. But Udinese players are often caught offside. A draw may be quite disappointing for Napoli fans but for Udinese fans this is a match result that is not too bad. Because they finally managed to get 1 goal in the added minute of time thanks to their persistence.

For me, the draw that Udinese played with Napoli yesterday night is a good result for Udinese. Napoli was the favorite to win against Udinese, but the match turned out to end in a draw. This draw will boost Udinese chances of escaping relegation if they can win two matches out of their three remaining matches in the league. A loss could have been bad for Udinese because it would have given them fewer chances to escape relegation this season.

Udinese-Napoli, Calzona: "I found the team in a mentally disastrous situation"

Source: https://sport.sky.it/

Calzona is very disappointed he just has lost his words,,

Udinese actually had a lot of chances in this match to score more goals. But they were unable to shoot on target. Great goal from Osimhen by the way. The defending was really bad at that time. He was almost free to score the goal. Osimhen did score another goal but it was ruled offside. And towards the end of the match, I thought Napoli would be able to get three points. But Udinese took advantage of some bad defending from Napoli and were able to get one point from this match. I like how Udinese are still fighting to get out of the relegation zone. They are two points behind Empoli.

By the way, if they are on the same points as Empoli they will actually be out of the relegation zone because they have a better goal difference.

About Napoli, it does not make much difference right now because they are going to finish towards the mid table anyway.

Each coach has different tactics and different needs for the players needed in a team. The players recruited by Jose Mourinho are already quite good and it has been proven that De Rossi can continue this to make the team's performance even better.
However, if De Rossi builds the Roma team as he wants from the start, I think this team can be much better and De Rossi has also proven that he is a coach who has good qualities after being able to bring Roma out of its downturn this season.
Regardless of Roma's inconsistent performance at the end of the season like now, I think De Rossi has been quite successful so far and has made Roma's performance better compared to the start of the season when Mourinho still managed him.

For the next match in the EPL against Leverkusen, I will not have any hopes at all because I already realize that Roma's strength is not comparable to Leverkusen's strength. I only hope that in the match against Atalanta on May 13, Roma can bring victory and show that they will not disappoint Roma supporters.

This draw will boost Udinese chances of escaping relegation if they can win two matches out of their three remaining matches in the league. A loss could have been bad for Udinese because it would have given them fewer chances to escape relegation this season.

Yeah the draw was indeed good for Udinese because right now they now have total of 30 points and even if they are on the relegation zone now they have chance of shifting away from the relegation if they are more consistent as their match against Napoli they will win  all their remaining matches, however is still a little surprise to see that as strong as Napoli who is currently leading the 8 position of the table will be inconsistent to allow Udinese that is almost at the bottom of the table hold them to a draw when they actually had the opportunity of winning, it was actually bad for Napoli because they would have gotten a very close points with Lazio if they had win but now they are still far behind Lazio.

For Udinese to be consistent enough to hold Napoli to a draw I will not be surprised if they win Empoli on their meeting because Empoli is also not in a good shape so perhaps considering their 2 points different if Udinese will be consistent enough to win them then they may likely move out from the relegation zone.

Wins are all wins and whoever they won don't matter as much as all you do is win. If he had lost to these three low profiled clubs in Seria A Competition, he wouldn't have had peace of mind, infact people don't appreciate you for what you do so I understand perfectly.

Even if they won against a small side, they played a much more better and beautiful football than the one we watched when Jose Mourinho was head coach of this same club. No arguments he won them the European Conference League Competition in his first season and didn't get enough backing but these are same players handled by Jose Mourinho? He needs to take a rest from football for sometime in my opinion.

For the game remaining, I do think they will share points with Atalanta during the next game as they'll be facing themselves and for the next two games to round it up 38games? As Roma should also emerge winners from.these two. It's either a win for them because they'll still be in one of these European Competitions next season. What I know is that, they're most likely to get better next season.

Roma really have lost the fifth position to Atalanta now. In addition to that Atalanta have a really good advantage as they still have a missing game. It will be really sad if Roma don't finish in top five. There is an extra quota for the Champions League but even in this situation they have a possibility not to make it.    Four days from now, there is an Atalanta - Roma game. It is a really critical one.

I feel like De Rossi can bring this team to a better level if he is given more time. He hasn't even managed for a full season you know. It is unfair to judge a manager from such a short time period.

We cannot deny that Roma's performance under De Rossi's training has indeed improved much better than at the start of the season when Roma was still coached by Mourinho. But De Rossi can also be a good coach at Roma because there are already good players prepared by Mourinho. And here De Rossi made better adjustments and maximized them in a better way than Mourinho. I'm sure Roma will be better next season. Because actually seeing Roma competing in the race for 5th place right now is already quite great. Because at the start of De Rossi's arrival, we know that Roma even slumped along with Napoli in a ranking that was close to 10th. But slowly Roma moved up the rankings in the standings thanks to De Rossi.

I think De Rossi has done great job making Roma better since becoming coach. He changed things for better and helped players reach their full potential. Roma has improved lot with De Rossi in charge which is impressive because they weren't doing well at beginning of season. I think Roma will keep getting better with De Rossi leading them. It's nice to see them doing well in rankings and I'm excited to see how De Rossi keeps helping them succeed.

Jose Mourinho has actually built a squad well. It's just that the tactics used by Mourinho haven't changed that much so that opponents who are used to the tactics used by Roma when Mourinho was still coaching them can read Mourinho's tactics and make it difficult for Roma to win. But with the new coach available, namely De Rossi. I see this young coach can create bolder and more aggressive tactics for the Roma squad. And Mourinho rarely uses this, but De Rossi dares to use this tactic. Next season, maybe Roma will still be with De Rossi. But the real challenge may be different next season. In fact, I don't know whether Lukaku will still be at Roma or not. What is clear is that there will definitely be many changes in the Roma squad. because in the upcoming transfer market there will definitely be a lot of influence on changes within the Roma squad itself. It could be that the Roma squad will improve or vice versa.

[Mame89]

At least DeRossi had tried to give his best as Roma managed to score a goal in the first minute of the match against Juventus, even though until the end of the match Roma did not get a single goal from the several kicks they directed at Juventus' goal and none of them succeeded in penetrating the Juventus goal again.

Agree. De Rossi has performed his best to date with As Roma and hopes of qualifying for the UCL League next season are still wide open with the record that in the last three matches they must always win. De Rossi's totality and loyalty to As Roma cannot be doubted, this was seen when he was still a Roma player, and now De Rossi has become AS Roma coach replacing Jose Mourinho. Even though he has only just started practicing, the strategy implemented by De Rossi has had a big influence on the rise of As Roma, at least this is what I have seen so far.

In the European league facing Leverkusen, it seems unlikely that As Roma will qualify because Leverkusen's performance this season has been very impressive, especially with the aggregate advantage in the first leg, of course Leverkusen will be even more confident when they face As Roma in the second leg. I think De Rossi's main focus right now is the three remaining matches in Serie A.

Yes, victories are victories - it’s hard to argue with that. But the result is the result, right? And at the moment, Roma is going past the Europa League final and into 6th place in Serie A. This result is worse than what was achieved in both of his full seasons at Roma.
As for the fact that Roma began to play “better and more beautiful,” this is not confirmed by the facts - the result is worse than under Mourinho. Roma just started to play more spectacularly - they score a lot and concede a lot. But there are many such teams in the middle of the standings and there is nothing to be proud of.

Roma really have lost the fifth position to Atalanta now. In addition to that Atalanta have a really good advantage as they still have a missing game.

There is an extra quota for the Champions League but even in this situation they have a possibility not to make it.    Four days from now, there is an Atalanta - Roma game. It is a really critical one.

I feel like De Rossi can bring this team to a better level if he is given more time. He hasn't even managed for a full season you know. It is unfair to judge a manager from such a short time period.

This week there will be two decisive matches for Roma, one of which must complete the second leg against Leverkusen in the European league and after that they still have to face Atalanta in the fight for a place in next season's champions league. It is clear that Roma's situation is so pressing with this tough schedule that they have to play totally without reducing anything.

De Rossi has done well for the rest of the season after replacing Mourinho and could even put Roma in contention for European competition. If it weren't for De Rossi, Roma would definitely have difficulty being in their current position. I still believe De Rossi will open a wide path for a more competitive journey for Roma in the future.
