Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Jatiluhung]

Douglas Luiz is indeed one of the players who I think will be quite useful at Juventus. And now Juventus is just one step away from getting this player. Just complete the Medical Test and this player will join Juventus. And this marks the end of the midfielder hunt for Juventus. However, I'm actually not that optimistic about Juventus next season. Because I still doubt their new coach, Thiago Motta. Will he be a better coach than Allegri or not. But I don't doubt Thiago Motta's potential to become a great coach. But what I mean is whether his adaptation process at Juventus will go fast enough or not. Thiago Motta is a young coach with potential but the pressure of coaching a team as big as Juventus will certainly provide different challenges to when he coached Bologna. But hopefully he succeeds there and doesn't disappoint all Juventus fans.

It looks like a medical test for Douglas Luiz has been scheduled for next week. And it looks like the Juventus club really wants to use this player for the long term. Because the contract agreed by Juventus with Douglas Luiz is until 2029. And Juventus brought in Douglas Luiz by paying 25 million Euros and adding two players, namely Iling Junior and Barrenechea. I don't know whether this is a fairly profitable deal for Juventus or not. But Juventus looks like they will fight harder next season.

Regarding the new Juventus coach, Thiago Motta, I actually have quite good hopes for this coach at Juventus. Even though in his coaching career he has not had the opportunity to coach a big team before. But he has coached at least 4 teams which should make him have enough experience. He has coached PSG U-19, Genoa, Spezia and Bologna. And Bologna actually got quite a clear improvement in performance after being coached by Thiago Motta. but I also understand if you doubt Thiago Motta. because I might also have doubts. But after I saw how Bologna managed to get a ticket to the UCL, I think it was all thanks to Thiago Motta who was able to make Bologna succeed in making extraordinary use of every available player. So I think Thiago Motta will also be a good coach at Juventus.

Conte has made a request to sign several star players in the summer including Lukaku, so it does indicate that Osimhen may not be in Conte plans next season, I think you must have known if Napoli are currently planning to exchange Osimhen for Lukaku?

I honestly think we will end up in this direction too
exchange Osimhen Lukaku and money from Chelsea so that Napoli can buy other players!

this plan is flawless and puts Roma in a bad situation and they must IMMEDIATELY look for a serious striker or there will be problems
De Rossi start with problems new season.

Of course, the result that Bologna was able to achieve is due to Motta, but this does not mean that he can be a good coach for Juventus. And in fact, I don’t expect great results from him, I even think that Juventus was a little hasty in appointing a new coach, because now on the transfer market there is a choice of good coaches, the first thing that comes to my mind is Pochettino or Terzic. They both have much more experience, and seem to me more suitable for this position. But apparently Juventus chose Motta because he is more familiar with Serie A, I hope they were not mistaken with this choice.

At least, they can let Osimhen go. This offer suddenly became news material for various clubs, some of which were rumors: Arsenal, PSG, Chelsea, and also Saudi Arabia. Even though Osimhen was one of the fantastic players last season, he was truly loyal to Napoli and at the end of this season, he was forced to let go. There are several things that make it quite unfortunate. but on the other hand, Napoli also has targets and plans and strategies that must be fulfilled for the club's progress.

this move was dictated by the fact that Victor Osimhen no longer wants to play for Napoli and the other clubs have purposely turned a deaf ear to lower the price.. smart!
Antonio Conte plans are starting to get complicated at this rate..

[rendravolt]

Inter are very lucky to have a player like Hakan Calhanoglu where the player wants to stay when there is interest from other clubs. This midfield player from Turkey seems to want to end his football career at this Italian club and never wants to go to another club as long as he is still happy.

Recently there has been interest from Bayern Munich but that is an approach to the players, not the club. So as long as Hakan Calhanoglu can reject the offer that comes then they are very happy with his decision. Inter still needs him to win various titles and with Inter's current performance it would be a huge disadvantage if they lost a midfielder like him.

But apparently Juventus chose Motta because he is more familiar with Serie A, I hope they were not mistaken with this choice.

One thing that might be why Juventus chose Thiago Motta too quickly as coach is because Juventus probably wanted to look for something new to become a young coach at Juventus, even though there are many who are more experienced, for example the young coach Xabi Alonso succeeded in bringing Leverkusen to advance as the strongest team. in the Bundesliga Thiago Motta also brought Bologna to play very well in the previous season so that currently many teams are looking for young coaches like Kompany in Munich, moreover many teams are also recruiting talented and productive young players to fill the main squad, it is clear that Competition next season will be very tight.

Every young player and coach will probably be a new color in the game that will be displayed next season, this will be great and can't wait to see how Thiago Motta brings Juventus to a better team than the previous season with Allegri, even though we also know that everything needs a long process and Thiago Motta has time to adapt to all the players and make sure to get new players by recruiting several new players and filling the main squad because it is also important for him to get financial support so he can make Juventus a strong team again in Serie A as before.

It's a blessing that Inter Milan has players who are loyal to them, apart from Hakan Calhanoglu, they also have Lautaro Martinez on the list of loyal players. Inter Milan is the first European club he has played for, and so far he has not been to any team since 2018.

In the last 5 seasons, Inter Milan has always filled the top 3 places in the Serie A standings, and with favorable conditions like now, I think Inter Milan will continue to dominate the top 3 places for at least the next 3 seasons.

Conte has an excellent reputation from his experience in managing Italian clubs. especially when he was coach of Juventus and Inter Milan. We have seen Conte's extraordinary record in his success in making the team he managed become champions.

It is very clear that Conte's reputation is very much in line with the philosophy of the Serie A game, why is that because Conte spent his career and the beginning of his career as a player he wore the Lecce 1985/1992 and Juventus 1992/2004 uniforms and it is very clear that he has always been successful in bringing Serie A clubs to win the Scudetto, but it is different when handling Premier League clubs, he always had difficulties and even ended up being fired.

Antonio Conte does have quite good experience in Serie A, whether as a player or as a coach, and that is what makes Napoli still believe in this coach's abilities. Indeed, he may a little difficulty being a coach in other leagues, especially the Premier League, but I understand because of the competition in the Premier League also quite tight and he also doesn't have much experience in the Premier League. He spent most of his time in italy and he played as a player for Lecce and Juventus and his statistics at those clubs are also quite good especially at Juventus achieved many achievements and he started his coaching career also at the club Italy before he started coaching big clubs he experimented with coaching average clubs.

It is true that they are looking active, Napoli may end up with a good result next season, and it is going to be quite fun to see them do better again. We should realize that things aren't all that simple, there are many ways we could do this and sometimes it's easy and sometimes it's very tough.

I think the best way to move forward for them would be not expecting a title or anything like that because I do not think that they are going to be that good, obviously it will take a while and we should see them as a team which is getting better. Finishing top four this season would be enough, that would get them a good launching pad and after that they could do better and better, finally getting a title yet again, but not this year.

I do not think so, Conte is a great manager and I think that will be something tough for him as well. I am not saying that it is going to end up with something that would be a bit more stretched, we do not see the team could end up being a little different, we will see Napoli not do that great because the squad isn't that great.

I agree that Spaletti had just a little bit different team, not that much the same but not that different, and somehow won the league so everyone questions why shouldn't it happen again. But the fact is that what they did that year was a shocker, and even if you put Spaletti right now, they still can't repeat it, even if they kept him this season they couldn't, it was a one time thing that's it.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Currently Juventus have to think realistically than having to suffer bad luck not to win any title in the next season because competition in series A will be tighter after a small club under Juventus has a big change from the recruitment of new players who can give threats for Juventus and if in this transfer season Juventus cannot make many changes, Juventus' performance will only end like last season.

The truth is that right now Italian teams need a lot of financial support and that is something that we are clear about, but in the case of Juve, who finished 4th, it was with a lot of suffering, and for me they lost a lot when they lost that game against Inter where they were fighting for 1st place in Serie A. I think that from that moment on things went very badly for Juve. I don't know what factor influenced it but everything went Down the drain for them , This is one of the things that must be thought about for this season. If they play the same, I think it will not be enough to qualify. I don't know if the solutions are to include new players or change coaches, I don't know, they just have to score more goals and that's it, that everything comes down to that with the players they have.

Juventus set to complete first two summer signings this week

Juventus are preparing to finalize the moves of Douglas Luiz and Michele Di Gregorio in the next few days.

This is promising to be an exciting summer for the Bianconeri with several new incomers.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport via TuttoJuve, the club will announce the captures of Luiz and Di Gregorio this week.

The Serie A giants already have an agreement in place with Aston Villa for the Brazilian midfielder. This operation could cost the Old Lady around 50 million euros.

However, the club reduced the cost by inserting Samuel Iling-Junior and Enzo Barrenechea as makeweights. The English winger and the Argentine midfielder will thus move in the opposite direction, completing permanent switches to Villa Park.

In the last 5 seasons, Inter Milan has always filled the top 3 places in the Serie A standings, and with favorable conditions like now, I think Inter Milan will continue to dominate the top 3 places for at least the next 3 seasons.

Intermilan managed to win the scudetto this season by containing a squad that is quite qualified, Hakan has been one of Inzaghi mainstays in the Intermilan midfield, so indeed Inter Milan really wants to keep Hakan in their squad next season, if we talk about loyalty, of course I don't agree with you because so far Hakan is a player who has often changed clubs so far,  Hakan has played in 7 different teams including the current Intermilan during his football career, even reportedly currently Intermilan is starting to look for other players to replace Hakan in the Intermilan midfield next season, because Hakan and his agent have made Intermilan very angry after they held talks with Bayern Munich even though currently Hakan still has a contract until 2027.

Talking about Lautaro Martinez as a loyal player, of course I agree with you very much, because indeed Martinez is a player who does have high loyalty to Intermilan as his first team in Europe so far, but seeing his very young age and continuing to perform consistently, of course we cannot hope that he will continue to stay at Intermilan until retirement,  So far, Martinez has been able to perform quite impressively with InterMilan and Argentina so the possibility of him playing in other teams can certainly happen in the future.

With enough depth and week in week out performance only from the Seria A Competitions, I'm sure they'll be able to compete hard next season. I'm already tipping Antonio Conte and Napoli to win the Scudetto Seria A Competition next season, I don't know how you all would see this but I do see it that way, what do you think?

Most important thing here is that, unlike last season displays and performance, they have a good coach right now who has experience, I don't need to flatter him too much, Italians from seria a knows what he can can do as he has previously done before.

I do think they'll have a massive impact if everything goes well and if everyone that is newly signed in blend into the plans of the coach. Much I'm expecting honestly. Top four is cool, but I'm setting up my expectations for this Napoli side, that's only if Victor Oshime and Khivicha Kvaratskhelia stays anyways.

Motta has done very well with Bologna and I think it could actually be one of the right choices. Young coaches are now given more chances in Europe. Xavi, Xabi and Dortmund's last coach Nuri Şahin. Another one is Motta, why not? I think he signed with Juventus because he was sure of what he could do. If he hadn't found the key to success, he wouldn't have taken this risk and wouldn't have accepted the offer.

Currently, Hakan Calhanoglu is 30 years old and Hakan Calhanoglu still has a contract at Inter until 2027, of course it is a long contract. But even so, it also looks like Inter might not close or retain Hakan Calhanoglu, because it seems like if another team is interested in buying Hakan Calhanoglu, then it looks like Inter will be ready to let him go. However, if Hakan Calhanoglu has chosen to stay at Inter then that would also be a good choice. Because after all, playing at Bayern Munich no longer seems to provide a guarantee of getting a trophy. Because after all, we all know that Bayern Munich also appointed its new manager on a gambling basis and in doing so, it seems that Hakan Calhanoglu felt unprepared for a bigger and more difficult challenge at Bayern Munich.

Douglas Luiz is one of the young players who has great potential. If Juventus succeeds in buying Douglas Luiz then this will be good news for Juventus' performance which will improve. Basically, midfielders who are still young will have very good stamina and can provide good support to the attacking players. It seems like it's too soon to decide that Thiago Motta can't be better than Allegri. At least give him the opportunity to show that he will get better and bring Juventus to the top of the standings.

Conte has made a request to sign several star players in the summer including Lukaku, so it does indicate that Osimhen may not be in Conte plans next season, I think you must have known if Napoli are currently planning to exchange Osimhen for Lukaku?

Chelsea have said before that they’re not going to accept any swap deal for Lukaku. If Napoli wants Lukaku, they should pay to have him as their full time player. Conte is trying to be wise here in my view, he knows Lukaku is not a long term contract and loaning him won’t be a great option, so he’ll try to swap him with the player he doesn’t need for next season. Chelsea also have not shown any interest in Osimhen and doesn’t want anything link to them showing interest in him. This situation has now put both Conte, Lukaku and Osimehn on an uncertainty level and not know what holds for them next.

[Silence Scream]

the market that Juventus is making is really interesting and this year, as I have already said, the guys in the team can aspire to have a good championship and even go to the Champions League by doing some good matches, the market seems very promising to me, a young man who I like Douglas Luiz a lot and he can do really great things now we're at a bit of a standstill for calafiori who is another excellent player, we'll see...

Douglas Luiz is indeed one of the players who I think will be quite useful at Juventus. And now Juventus is just one step away from getting this player. Just complete the Medical Test and this player will join Juventus. And this marks the end of the midfielder hunt for Juventus.

I'm glad to see that Douglas Luiz passed his medical exam at Brazil's medical center, but I'm not pleased with the deal that Juventus made to include their future players Enzo Barrenechea and Samuel Iling-Junior. Juventus could have used an older player in the deal instead. 

I heard that Juventus would include Kennie in its deal with Villa, but Kennie wants extra money to be a part of the deal between Juventus and Villa. Samuel Iling-Junior and Enzo Barrenechea could be stars, but they are still young. Again, Enzo Barrenechea also plays as a midfielder. Emery is clearly getting two possible stars and extra cash by moving Luis. 

Douglas Luiz had a good season with Aston Villa in the Premier League, but I think that the players Juventus will use in the exchange do not make sense. They are making a risky move by sending young players to Aston Villa. They may not be able to buy players again later, even with high transfer fees. Unai Emery is a good coach and has looked after his interests. He will calculate the best transfer policy and send Luiz like this

In the last 5 seasons, Inter Milan has always filled the top 3 places in the Serie A standings, and with favorable conditions like now, I think Inter Milan will continue to dominate the top 3 places for at least the next 3 seasons.

Hakan Çalhanoğlu is one of the best in Serie A in the position he plays. That's why keeping him in the team is a big advantage for Inter. Lautaro Martinez carried Inter with his goals in the last season. Even though big teams want him this year, he seems happy in Inter and does not plan to go anywhere. Continuing to benefit from his attacking talents will also have an impact on Inter's transfer policy, because if Martinez were to leave the team, they would have to find a player to replace him.

Regarding the new Juventus coach, Thiago Motta, I actually have quite good hopes for this coach at Juventus. Even though in his coaching career he has not had the opportunity to coach a big team before. But he has coached at least 4 teams which should make him have enough experience.

They both have much more experience, and seem to me more suitable for this position. But apparently Juventus chose Motta because he is more familiar with Serie A, I hope they were not mistaken with this choice.

I think Juventus' decision to recruit Thiago Motta was the right decision and not rushed. Because he deserves it, especially since he is already familiar with Seria A, as you said. So Thiago Motta is very optimistic that he can make Juventus again a strong team in Serie A, he will change the sick mentality that Allegri left at Juventus.

This is because Thiago Motta is known for his adaptable approach, often changing formations depending on the game situation, so he is very suitable to coach Juventus. So for Thiago Motta there is no difficulty for Juventus, remember that when he coached Bologna he was able to overwhelm Inter. In three matches, Bologna managed to win once, draw once and lose once. This proves that he was very successful with Bologna, which we know has a modest squad. So with the squad that Juventus has, I think he will be able to bring Juventus to become a contender for Serie A champions next season.

This situation has now put both Conte, Lukaku and Osimehn on an uncertainty level and not know what holds for them next.

Chelsea had made final decision never accepting swap deal for Lukaku behind Napoli offering want to swap with Victor Osimhen. I think Napoli exactly had good position for selling Victor Osimhen with current market values raise up 100 million euro and sign Lukaku recently bid offer by Chelsea around 38 million euro.
Antonio Conte stilll waiting with Napoli management for signing Lukaku because Lukaku is typical striker needed for his tactician. Both of them have good chemistry when Conte as Inter Milan manager and Lukaku raise his top performance under Conte as his manager.
