Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Palakka]

Call it Juventus, Milan, Napoli and Roma. It is certain that these four teams will be very tough competitors for Inter next season. Because of these four teams, you could say that the teams in Serie A are the most active in the transfer market this season. So it is clear that these four teams are very serious about preparing their teams for next season. Therefore, Inter really has to be aware of this.

To be honest, I haven't received any official news about the players they will recruit next season. Juventus and AC Milan are indeed tough competitors for Inter Milan for next season. I can say that this season Juventus and AC Milan cannot put pressure on Inter Milan who dominate Serie A. But if they are active in the transfer market this season I think they will really be a tough competitor for Inter Milan.

I don't know how AS Roma and Napoli will fare next season. As Roma will be better next season because I see De Rossi is a great coach. Napoli performed very badly this season. I'm not sure they will be contenders for the Serie A title next season.

So far no player has been officially announced to be signed by a the big teams because indeed many of the players they are currently targeting are still playing in the euro and also focusing on the Copa América, but indeed Milan, Inter, Juventus and several other teams have been actively moving to recruit the players they need to improve the quality of their team next season, I think for now the club is more inclined to postpone the inauguration of the agreement with the new player in order to keep the player focus with their national team, this season we see an incredible resilience from InterMilan in winning the Scudetto but it will be difficult for InterMilan to maintain the Scudetto next season if they do not improve the quality and quantity of their squad later.

I am quite sure that Serie A next season  will be very tight, because currently many big teams are starting to improve their squads, both changing coaches and also targeting new players for them to get, many changes in the Serie A club club of course allow us to see many surprises that will occur next season, Roma and Napoli this season are not performing optimally in the scudetto competition, but if you look at the ambitions of Roma and Napoli this season which have having a new coach, of course we have the potential to see them get better next season, especially since Conte and Inzaghi reportedly have received support and also big funds from their management.

Juventus must work hard to build their squad next year. In my opinion, Juventus' prudence will ease its path to success. If Manchester United give Juventus a chance, surely Juventus can defend its honor.

Last season Juventus didn't spend much on players. In fact, Juventus actually released a lot of players or released many players in the transfer market last summer. Because at that time Juventus was only focused on Serie A. So they felt they didn't really need some players and let them go. But in the coming season, Juventus has a busy schedule because they will also play in the UCL. So Juventus really needs to rebuild their squad so that they remain ready for the busy schedule they will face. Next season everything will also be very different. Because Juventus has a new coach after always being with Allegri for a long time.

Don't worry mate. Motta is working to improve Juventus, and he has identified specific players to be recruited by the club. Juventus is still in talks with United over the prospect of recruiting Jadon Sancho from the Red Devils; nevertheless, Jadon was not the top target because Greenwood declined Juventus' offer.

Juventus has altered its preference to the secondary pick, Jadon Sancho, but the search is not over; Juventus must also find a replacement for chiesa, who has asked Juventus if he can depart from there. Chiesa has one season left at Juventus, and he intends to leave from the club.

Anyway, what Juventus needs are some quality strikers, and juventus are ready to swap some players to be exchanged with their target. The process of upgrading the squad will take a long time, and i can only hope that Motta does not face many obstacles while recruiting new talents. In the end, motta's main task will be achieved if he can recruit all of the targeted players to join in the old lady.

[Blitzboy]

Juventus has changed its plans where initially its interest in Jadon Sancho had to be hampered because the fee was too large, 40 million euros, so that Juventus had to be forced to go on loan with a purchase option. I think this is a smart strategy for Juventus because with that they can be confident in Jadon Sancho's performance and just have to make him permanent later

Juventus open interest in the English man, this is a good offer from the Old Lady's because checking on both sides, he will be profitable deal. Jadon Sancho is promising player for Borrusia Dortmund and we know he's an important instrument for the progress of the club. With the few months spend on loan, he did weigh better than when he was in Manchester United.

I know you're excited about the Sancho rumors. This deal is far from done.

Dortmund, to start with, wants him back. That makes sense. He's at ease there and they know his talent. Given their difficulties getting rid of him, United might be tempted by that. Second, United wants to sell, not loan. Sancho was overpaid for, and they want some of that money back. A loan deal doesn't help them with that.

Juve has to make a strong offer. A great one. And I dont know if Juve is willing to pay top dollar. They've got other priorities, other players they need to focus on.

Im not saying its impossible, but I wouldnt bet on it. If I were you, I'd keep my expectations low. Both ways could happen with this, and Juve doesn't seem to be doing well at the moment.

If Juventus wants to win in the competition to get Sancho then Juventus should be braver in making an offer. Because Juventus must realize that Dortmund is also targeting this player. Dortmund intends to borrow him again but if that fails, Dortmund is thinking about buying the player permanently. And as usual, it is reported that Juventus is also looking for other ways to get Sancho, such as by exchanging players or something like that. But I don't think that will work. Because Man United will only focus on releasing these players without anything else. It is even reported that clubs from Saudi Arabia are also eyeing this player. And yes, it could be said that Sancho is on the list of players who are being sought after in the transfer market this time. So Man United will definitely maintain the selling price of this player considering the many clubs interested in bringing in Sancho.

Inter Milan has really dominated Serie A this season. They recorded the fewest defeats and the most wins in Serie A. This shows their extraordinary dominance. If other clubs in Serie A don't make changes I think Inter Milan will dominate again next season. But I think the league won't be as exciting if there is one team that is more dominant than the other teams.
Yes they still failed to win the Champions League and only made it to the knockout stages. But I'm sure they will be able to perform better next season.

unfortunately its true, Inter Milan dominated by always winning and losing very little, maybe they lost 3 games or so
this is the secret to winning, working for years and making a stable team
changing coaches and players often doesnt do any good to a winning team, see also Real Madrid.. they change less every year

Inter's performance was superb and outstanding in the league and that was why they were able to win the league even before the matches were over. It is the best thing that every club wants to always do better than the previous season and when that is achieved, it shows that they are progressing. Since they didn't go far in UCL, they decided to use Seria A to console themselves.

This upcoming season will also be great for them because I did not see any much changes in the team because they are good to go with the current squad that they have in the team for next season challenges in all competitions. The club still need to improve in performance a d cover whatever lapses that they have which might be a hindrance for them of going far in UCL next season.

I think that Napoli has a chance with Conte, it looks like he wants to keep all the key players and bring in some of the other teams, so there is optimism about Napoli, but for Juventus I can’t say the same, I’m not even sure how good Motta is for Juventus. I also don’t see them actively working on the transfer market, so I think they will fighting for a place in the Champions League, but nothing more. And I agree that it will be difficult to compete with Inter, they have retained the team and can repeat their success again.

If referring to Conte's big name then of course there will be a new hope for Napoli now because after all Conte even with his temper that is sometimes difficult to control but he is one of the coaches who is indeed very good and we cannot underestimate how his concoction in managing a club.

But on the other hand this also depends on the players in the end whether they can indeed make a difference and realize Conte's wishes or not because we also cannot rule out that Conte is not reluctant to leave even though his contract has only been running for a short time because he sees some great coaches who are training at this time, Conte is one of the coaches who is not really at home with a long contract because in his current coaching record he has never been in one club for a long time because he always leaves on an existing contract so that for Napoli it also does not rule out such a possibility which makes this 50/50 whether in the end Conte can give his best or leave quickly because of the lack of fit between Napoli's playing style and the scheme he has.

Because Juventus has a new coach after always being with Allegri for a long time.

In this season, Juventus not signed many players behind their participants only in domestic league and Copa Italia but next season will participants in Champion League with new format and have many matches than old format.
Its required for Juventus sign many players to make easily with their manager Thiago Motta rotate some players when have busy schedule match, linked with many players from Sancho until  Greenwood but Juventus not official release yet with their first success signing under Thiago Motta era.

After long time absent participants in champion league, Juventus will return back for next season and they need get consistent performance for dominating in domestic league not winning the Scudetto more than four consecutives season and keep quit well performance for the first appearance in Champion League missing in this season.

We hope that the competition for the Scudetto next season will be fierce, even though we know Inter will continue to dominate, but at least Simone Inzaghi squad will no longer lead the standings alone without experiencing significant pressure. Milan, Juventus and Napoli are three teams that are considered to be Inter closest competitors, but personally I am a little worried about the abilities of these three teams, because they are starting their journey next season with a new manager. Of course they need time to adapt, so the change of manager might also be an opportunity for Simone Inzaghi to retain the Scudetto.

On the other hand, Atalanta, Bologna and Roma could also make a surprise, they also have the opportunity to enliven the competition, thus creating a more competitive Serie A atmosphere. Conte is the manager with the heaviest burden, because he has to lift the performance of Napoli ranked 10th to the top four in the standings. Conte reputation as a quality manager has been proven, but everything also depends on the depth of the squad he has. If Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia leave, Conte will have difficulty managing Napoli.

[karabiber]

Working to bring in new potential players or working to maintain their old players in the team, if you look at other teams you will know that many teams are working hard to budget huge amount of funds to sign in new potential players to assist the old players to make the team stronger against next season. Juventus need new potential strikers which their manager need to search for those kind of players and bring them to Juventus in this season, because that is what made Juventus points to reduced because their strikers was finding it difficult to score goals to improve their points last season. Mortgage Thiago need to prove his skills to show Juventus that he has what it takes to lead the team to victory next season, because that is what Juventus managements are expecting from him.

Thiago Motta knows better what the team needs because every coach wants players who suit his coaching style, but if we look at it as a whole, in the last few seasons the Juventus team has needed a capable striker, they played quite well in controlling the match but didn't have one. good target men to be able to score goals.
And the Juventus team also has to improve a lot if they want to develop next season. I think their first step in bringing in a new coach is very right. Now they also have to support Thiago Motta with enough money to bring in players who have good quality.

Thiago Motta is a proven manager at Bologna. He likes to do everything step by step. For him Bologna spent the highest transfer expenditure in their history and Bologna had a successful season for themselves. Motta is a good strategist and knows what he wants. Motta experiments with tactics and now I believe he will have successful seasons at Juventus. He is a man who will radically change the tactical mentality of Juventus and Gianluca Ferrero can give Motta an unlimited budget for success. Because giving Motta what he wants is crucial for Juventus to win the Serie A championship.

[Leviathan.007]

Thangs are getting wired about Khvicha Kvaratskhelia the player of Napoli. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia had a perfect performance in the last season when they won the Serie A title and he was linked to many famous teams but he stayed in Napoli.
Just after that, he was interested in playing for Real Madrid and then Barcelona, and then after these two teams, we saw him showing interest in PSG.
It seems after the bad performance he had in this season which was not good enough compared to the last season now he just wants to leave he doesn't care where.
Even his agent said he is not going to play for Napoli anymore.

And I agree that it will be difficult to compete with Inter, they have retained the team and can repeat their success again.

Of course, Napoli will have an opportunity to return to their best level again with Conte. We all know Conte is one of the most great coaches, he is also very familiar with Serie A competition. And Conte even won the scudetto with Juventus and Inter Milan. We must still remember how strong Juventus was under his management in 2011 until 2014. They could win 3 Serie A titles in a row (2011/12, 2012/13, 2013/14). With this great history, I'm quite optimistic with Napoli in this season.

I just hope Napoli will buy some new players to strengthen their squad. In the defense line, Napoli looks quite weak. They also needs to add some talented players in midfield line to support the attackers. Meanwhile in the attacking line, I hope Conte can ensure Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia to stay in this season. These players have a very important role for the attacking of Napoli. At least, one of them can stay for a longer season.

After winning against Poland last day, this is what Denzel Dumfries said to SKY Sports.

https://dailysports.net/news/netherlands-midfielder-speaks-out-about-his-future-at-inter-milan

It would absolutely be very dumb decision from Inter if they do not give Dumfries a contract extension. He makes the defense of the team a lot stronger. There is a reason why Inter has conceded the least amount of goals in this season. It was the defensive line of the team. And Dumfries was a big reason for that. So it will be kind of a stupid decision if they do not want to keep one of the strongest players of the defensive line in the squad.

By the way, I am pretty sure that there is nothing to worry about and they are most probably going to offer him a new contract. If they don’t for some reason, you know, there will be a lot of clubs who will be looking for him.

Yes, I also believe that Napoli will rediscover the key that was lost previously and that key is only with Antonio Conte who will later help Napoli to win back the Scudetto like when they were with Spalletti but I have doubts in my mind whether Napoli can keep Conte if in the future in the first season experienced a bit of failure?
This question is always in my mind because doubts like this will definitely be experienced by most Napoli supporters who have witnessed Napoli's bad last season. Replacing the coach several times makes the club very bad, while a new coach needs time to adapt to the Napoli players to can put together plans and strategies that will be used in the coming season.
That doesn't mean I doubt Antonio Conte, but we can't predict whether Conte will be able to produce very good results in just 1 season quickly or whether he will only get 2nd place in the points table.
I also agree that Napoli should at least get new, more reliable players in defense because last season they conceded in large numbers and in the midfield there will probably still be changes but there is no confirmation at this time who the new players Napoli will recruit.

[Sebas.tian]

Based on what we saw in this season that made Inter to embraced the Italian league title, I don't think such opportunity will be there for them again next season, because many teams are planning to invite some new potential players into their team to challenge Inter. Juventus, AC Milan and Roma are seriously working to sign in potential players, I think they will be able to get those players in this season and it will be very easy for AC and Juventus to challenge Inter, because they performed very well last season to ended the season in second and third position. I know that next season will going to be a tough tournament, and it will be difficult for the tournament to end up for the favour of Inter next season.

Massimiliano Allegri and Luciano Spalleti was the main coaches that fought really hard to elevates their perspective elite club but I think their time didn't match with the requirable condition of the current club. Juventus and Napoli won the scudetto in previous season but what's happening now because they've completely missed out on such amazing competitive runs.

The main thing we should know is that Napoli and Juventus will fight next season to win solidable trophy and earned good points. Napoli appoint Antonio Conte as new manager and Juventus selects Thiago Motta Santon Olivares, we will wait patiently for the work which is coming from them.

Based on what we saw in this season that made Inter to embraced the Italian league title, I don't think such opportunity will be there for them again next season, because many teams are planning to invite some new potential players into their team to challenge Inter.

But wait, let me clear things out. Given Intermilan's low likelihood of repeating the success of previous season like you said that above, how can you be so confident? Still, do you think recruiting new talents will inevitably strengthen the other team's squad?
Well, Intermilan, the champion of the past season, will have the best chemistry in the next season, hence I have a quite different view on this. Again, IMO, hiring fresh players is part of the process of enhancing your squad, but it can go either right or wrong.

Finally, Intermilan is still most likely to defend their title last-wise. Although their rivals are strengthening their teams by bringing so many fresh talents. 

Juventus, AC Milan and Roma are seriously working to sign in potential players, I think they will be able to get those players in this season and it will be very easy for AC and Juventus to challenge Inter, because they performed very well last season to ended the season in second and third position. I know that next season will going to be a tough tournament, and it will be difficult for the tournament to end up for the favour of Inter next season.

The new talents hired by those teams may go either good or bad, and they need to rebuild their chemistry from scratch again. 

I still believe intermilan will defend their title.

I agree with you that Inter Milan will have difficulties next season, therefore the big clubs will strengthen their lines, not only Juventus, AC Milan and As Roma, even Bologna and Atalanta, Napoli will also strengthen their attack and their defense, to be honest, I  I can't wait for next season for the Serie A League which I think will be interesting to watch, even though we know that these three clubs are eternal rivals which never get better, in fact they always get worse for these three clubs, especially if you look at the rivalry between Juventus and Inter  Milan is always a tough match for both of them when a derby occurs.

but do you really think that Napoli can win the scudetto next year? seriously, Napoli have a practically destroyed dressing room and for now they aren't making any transfers and aren't renewing their team, it's true that there are Europeans involved and so it's slowing down the process, but let's remember that Juventus is completely redoing the team as well as to buy a coach who did an incredible job with Bologna, so in my opinion Napoli will be a team that will fight to enter the championship while Juventus will return among the great European big names
