Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Palakka]

It is undeniable that for now he is quite old but when in Serie A the age of 37 is sometimes still a common thing because in the end there are still some players who are even older than that and can still be competitive because Serie A is still one of the biggest domestic leagues whose tempo is a little slower so that even though old age when some players already have good experience then they can be competitive there.

Keylor did not get a good space after being knocked out by Courtois at Madrid and Donaruma at PSG so it would be great if he went to a club that needs him before he completely retires from his professional career because for the average age of players retiring from professional careers it will not be long for Keylor with his age now.

Serie A is more loyal to older players, especially when it comes to goalkeepers, you can remember how long Bufon played. Maybe Monza is not the best team to play for at the end of your career, but I think that the age of the goalkeeper plays a role here first of all. Donnarumma made Navas a player on the bench, and after PSG did not extend his contract, he had to look for another team. By the way, Navas left the team as a free agent, that is, he will simply join the team, without any extra financial expenses for Monza.

Monza has lost Iits main goalkeeper after Di gregorio left for Juventus at this time, previously it was reported that Szczesny was a strong candidatte to become Monza main goalkeeper but who knows what happened in the end it was Navas who is now Monza new recruit, Navas might be a pretty good addition on the depth of their squad to face the crmpetition next season, especially as Navas is one of the best goalkeepers ever and has played in various clubs and leagues during his carer, we cannot doubt his experience and ability in goalkeeping, but whether Monza will be the right choice for Navas today?
I personally think Navas Is still a great goalkeeper and he also still has high reflexes in keeping his goal from conceding, so he should still be able to play at a better club than Monza at the moment.

Looking at the pre-season schedule that AC Milan will face, it turns out that they will face strong teams in this pre-season. Yesterday they beat Man City in AC Milan's second pre-season match. And the next opponent that AC Milan will face is Real Madrid. And then their next opponent is Barcelona. It's very interesting because AC Milan looks like they want to test their strength against strong teams from the Premier League and La Liga.

I think AC Milan in the next season will really have bigger ambitions than the previous season. They have a new coach and several new players who they managed to get in the transfer market this time. And maybe this time they will try not to lose to a club from the same city as them, namely Inter Milan, which has looked perfect since last season. Last season, AC Milan really experienced a painful defeat when they lost to Inter Milan, which made Inter Milan confirm that they were Serie A champions with AC Milan's defeat. And yes, AC Milan will definitely try not to let that happen again. Maybe many of you and I also doubt that AC Milan will be able to beat Inter Milan because AC Milan has to adapt to a new coach. but the possibility is always there and well every season the results are actually always beyond expectations. For example, Napoli last season was bad and that was beyond everyone's expectations after they won the title.

AC Milan football team played very excellent in last match against Manchester City F.C. football team. AC Milan football team did 3 goals and in comparison Manchester City F.C. team did 2 goals and that team lose the match by 1 goal. Colombo played well in this match and two excellent goals in this match . He did first goal at the 30 minutes of match andvje did second goal at 34 minutes of match. He is match winner in this match and his confidence was top class and he was dominant on other team and he bent the match to their sides by doing 2 goals at the start of match. McAtee did second goal for the team and at that time goals were equal but after that Nasti  changed the game and did last goal of match and after that team stopped the goals.

Serie A always seems to be open, even for players who are no longer young. Even a small example is Lukaku, who is actually not much wanted by clubs from other leagues. But in Serie A he is always needed by the clubs there. Even Napoli is now preparing to release its young striker to buy Lukaku. Well Pepe Reina is still the oldest by far. Because Pepe Reina is 41 years old. And it's extraordinary to see that players at his age can still play in a big league like Serie A. And actually I'm quite surprised that there are other older goalkeepers who are back in Serie A. Well, Keylor Navas can actually still be quite reliable. Because he is still 37 years old. And to be honest, at his age he doesn't look that old.

We should understand that there's big difference when it comes to the English Premier League and Italian league, it's very important to enacts with these players. EPL changed styles and will definitely go for the young players while Italy are for the age and young ones. There's fact when it comes to Seria A. They've zero impact with the younger players and there'd absolutely no problem or challenge when it comes to signing aged players, these categories of players are experienced and have what it takes to enchanced a club status.

Playing style is also one of the factors why Serie A is more open to older players. However, they also don't forget about bringing young players into the squad. What's different is when they are able to optimize players whose speed has slowed down.
Serie A is famous for its tough defense, so a team needs a lot of experience if they want to have a sharp attacking line. This may be one of the reasons why in Serie A teams still need experienced players while they are looking for young players to prepare them for the future.
Apart from that, for some reason I see that some players are better when playing in Serie A, like Lukaku for example. He was better when he played here than in any other league.

Last Milan won the Scudetto in the 2021-2022 season, their struggle last season ended in the runner-up position, precisely behind Inter Milan, if we look at the difference in points at the end of the season, Milan strength last season was very far behind Inter Milan. The change of manager is intended to boost Milan performance to be more consistent, Paulo Fonseca seems to be able to meet expectations when looking at the results of the pre-season matches that have been played. We know that these results cannot be used as a full reference, but personally I think Milan is on the right track to become a Scudetto challenger team next season.

Milan ended last season by collecting 75 points, 19 points behind Inter Milan, with the breakthroughs made by Milan current management, by changing managers and recruiting several new players, Milan should be able to achieve the targets set for next season. At least Paulo Fonseca must ensure that Milan competes in the Champions League zone, don't let it decline even though we know this is his first season. Regarding the competition for the Scudetto, Inter seems likely to remain the main force in the competition, because Inzaghi squad has not made many changes.

The age of a player doesn’t matter when it comes to playing for a club or playing in a particular league, what matters the most is the impact they’ll give to the club as an experienced player. This often happens in Italian league which makes me wonder too why they’re the only league that really do that and the rest don’t necessarily care about it. A player without any impact to the club he is been added is just a minus to the squad and will not be utilised as much as others will be. So I see no point in keeping a player no matter how young that’ll not add any benefit to the club when he’s staying in the club.

AC Milan football team played very excellent in last match against Manchester City F.C. football team. AC Milan football team did 3 goals and in comparison Manchester City F.C. team did 2 goals and that team lose the match by 1 goal. Colombo played well in this match and two excellent goals in this match . He did first goal at the 30 minutes of match andvje did second goal at 34 minutes of match. He is match winner in this match and his confidence was top class and he was dominant on other team and he bent the match to their sides by doing 2 goals at the start of match. McAtee did second goal for the team and at that time goals were equal but after that Nasti  changed the game and did last goal of match and after that team stopped the goals.

AC Milan played great game against Manchester City. Colombo scored two amazing goals which helped his team to win. He scored first goal at 30 minutes and second goal at 34 minutes like you have already mentioned. He was best player in game and helped his team to win. Manchester City tried to catch up but Nasti scored a goal that sealed win for AC Milan. Team played smart and worked hard which paid off in end. Colombo played so well that it will probably make him feel even more confident and I am excited to see how he helps his team in the future.

Douglas Luiz is a player from Juventus who joined this team recently from Aston Villa.
Since Motta started working in Juventus he has been trying to do his best and make some changes in the team to improve because Allegri couldn't have well enough performance and he let this team.
We recently some pictures from Douglas Luiz in Italy showing him in this country. Douglas Luiz will ply for Juventus until 2029 for 50 million euros.

Douglas Luiz is a very talented midfielder, so for 50 million I think it makes sense to bring him. The reason is that Douglas is currently still relatively young, so with this it is very possible that Douglas can play very well at Juventus. That's why Juventus signed Douglas for a fairly long duration, namely 5 years. The reason is, Juventus knows that in these 5 years Douglas' best performance will most likely be seen. However, in the two pre-season matches that Juventus played against Monza and Nurnberg, I have not seen Douglas played by Juventus. Even though Juventus should have played Douglas in this pre-season match. Because this is very important for Juventus to do so that they can see how Douglas performs and see which position is more suitable for him. However, I only saw Thuram being played by Juventus to fill the central midfield position in this pre-season match. So I hope Juventus can field Douglas in the next pre-season match scheduled against Atletico Madrid. Because Atletico Madrid can be said to be a fairly equal opponent to Juventus, so by fielding Douglas in this match I think it would be very appropriate to see his performance.

Pre-season matches do not have any effect on the team in measuring strength but for individual players it is quite important especially for new players of course this can increase the players' confidence to face the match in the competition later.
I don't think AC Milan's victory over Man City is too much but I am quite amazed to see AC Milan's new players who can immediately adapt quickly with the team and make contributions, maybe that is a positive side that AC Milan gets in this pre-season match.

Manchester City realized that they needed to recover a little bit after this defeat. Milan won 3-2 with a clear game, they were very effective in front of goal. They took a 1-0 lead with Haaland's goal but it was not continued. Milan took a 2-1 lead, City equalized and Milan managed to win the match with Nasti scoring the third goal towards the end. It was a good warm-up match.

This match does not prove who is stronger for next season. but it is quite fun to see these two strong teams face off in a friendly match. And yes, for newly brought in players, pre-season matches are very important. To make them adapt more quickly to live matches. AC Milan has proven that they are indeed a strong team that is ready to face the upcoming season. And I think AC Milan has brought in the right players. And AC Milan's new coach, Paulo Fonseca, also seems reliable. But sometimes some clubs look good in pre-season but then they become below expectations once the season starts. I hope AC Milan is not like that. And they can play well in pre-season and also in the coming season.

as already said and this time I will defend Milan these matches absolutely do not prove the value of the team but really never and they count for very little because they are matches that are like training sessions now that Milan are not as strong as they once were it is certain but to say that these summer challenges will jeopardize the course of the next championship, it's just nonsense like what happened to Juventus a few days ago, these challenges don't count for anything

So I see no point in keeping a player no matter how young that’ll not add any benefit to the club when he’s staying in the club.

For example, Juventus a few seasons ago where Juventus still dominated the Serie A League, many were inhabited by old players, they did not think about regeneration, but over time and changes in the control of Juventus ownership changed to recruiting young players, this is the era where Juventus is no longer the Old Lady that we usually know that old players are there, and now there is no longer that motto at Juventus.

[tygeade]

In fact, previously Keylor Navas was loaned to Nottingham Forest and returned to PSG but then Keylor Navas contract also ended. But indeed, being 37 years old is certainly a factor in PSG no longer extending Keylor Navas contract. Therefore, with his status without a club at this moment, of course Keylor Navas is free to choose which team will be his next choice to play for next season.

But even so, I'm curious, are there no teams from the Saudi League interested in playing Keylor Navas? Because after all, if there is a team from the Saudi League that is willing to bring in Keylor Navas, then at least Keylor Navas will get a high salary before actually retiring. But indeed, because Monza seems to be a team that is interested in bringing in Keylor Navas, then maybe that would also be a good choice to provide the best results for Monza next season.

At Goalkeeper position 37 years old doesn't sound too bad, could be last years of his career at any decent club, and he isn't going to be playing for a title contender neither, so I think at least another 2 seasons is possible for him, would be very hard but not impossible to do. I think it's clear that we are going to see him do very badly if not given enough time, but if he gets enough training going and learn the defense then he can play decently.

A player at striker may have some issues for example, or a winger could have issues, 37 years old is hard for those positions, wing backs too. But when you are a goalkeeper then things could be easier, you lose some reflex, some agility, but you are not going to be tired after a game all that much, so fitness stands even at age of 40 for a goalkeeper, if he is better than any other 25 year old they could buy or get, then he is still the best chance they have.

Just look at Milan a few years ago, they literally had Ibrahimovic and Giroud at striker, both 35+ years old, one 40 years old. And that's striker, not like goalkeeper, very hard to continue to do after that age, and they still did it. Italy doesn't look age, they look at talent and price.

[Jatiluhung]

Maybe not many people have paid attention to Napoli in the pre-season matches they have played. And I was the same, namely not paying much attention to Napoli in the pre-season matches they were playing. But after I checked their pre-season schedule, it turned out that they had played 3 times this pre-season. And the results of each match they played were quite impressive. Because Napoli always manages to win with quite a lot of scores. Like the following matches.

- Napoli vs Anaune Val di Nion (4-0)
- Napoli vs Mantova (3-0)
- Napoli vs Enatia (4-0)

Aren't those impressive scores. I'm starting to wonder if Napoli will indeed return to their best season thanks to their current new coach, Conte. If that happens then it will be the highest appreciation for the coach and the club.

[mammusu]

But in Serie A he is always needed by the clubs there. Even Napoli is now preparing to release its young striker to buy Lukaku. Well Pepe Reina is still the oldest by far.

So I see no point in keeping a player no matter how young that’ll not add any benefit to the club when he’s staying in the club.

As long as the player is still able to appear consistently and has good performance, of course there is no problem for a team recruiting older players, So far, Serie A does not emphasize aggressive play like in the English league and we can see that the Serie A team plays It looks more slow and relaxed so players don't need to spend a lot of stamina and energy, so that's why Serie A is still quite comfortable for older players, like as Ibrahimovich, Buffon and also pegolo previously can be an example and proof that older players can still exist in Serie A, Lukaku is a player who has entered the end of his career but so far he  been able to develop better when playing in Serie A and that is why Conte really wants to recruit Lukaku and is willing to throw away Osimhen who is relatively younger, as I said above if Lukaku is no longer as aggressive as before but he can still show his sharpness in the current Serie A, but in the English league he seems to has failed because lose compete with aggressive young players so far , Keylor Navas is a goalkeeper who has a lot of experience and will be very lucky if Monza manages to get him later, although Navas has currently carried out medical tests at Monza, the move could be canceled because Navas and Monza have not yet found an agreement.

We recently some pictures from Douglas Luiz in Italy showing him in this country. Douglas Luiz will ply for Juventus until 2029 for 50 million euros.

Juventus spent a lot of money to get Douglas Luiz. You made a claim, man. They think this guy will change everything about their middle. But Thiago Motta is putting him on the bench for pre-season? Is it against Monza, Nurnberg? Come on!!

We all saw that Luiz was a big deal at Aston Villa. He has the ideas, the skills, and the drive. Taking it easy won't show us what he can bring to Juventus, though. Motta might have a plan to help Luiz get used to the way Juve does things. There is one person who can change the game, though. He needs to be playing, getting into the groove, and getting to know his peers.

It's not funny to play in Serie A. You got Napoli and Inter. It's time for Juventus to change and respond. They need to figure out how to include Luiz and use his skills to beat opponents. Motta has a chance to show that he's the right person for the job. Luiz has a chance to prove that he's worth the money.

Last Milan won the Scudetto in the 2021-2022 season, their struggle last season ended in the runner-up position, precisely behind Inter Milan, if we look at the difference in points at the end of the season, Milan strength last season was very far behind Inter Milan. The change of manager is intended to boost Milan performance to be more consistent, Paulo Fonseca seems to be able to meet expectations when looking at the results of the pre-season matches that have been played. We know that these results cannot be used as a full reference, but personally I think Milan is on the right track to become a Scudetto challenger team next season.

Milan ended last season by collecting 75 points, 19 points behind Inter Milan, with the breakthroughs made by Milan current management, by changing managers and recruiting several new players, Milan should be able to achieve the targets set for next season. At least Paulo Fonseca must ensure that Milan competes in the Champions League zone, don't let it decline even though we know this is his first season. Regarding the competition for the Scudetto, Inter seems likely to remain the main force in the competition, because Inzaghi squad has not made many changes.

Yes, AC Milan has failed to win the title in Serie A in the last two seasons. And yes, the last time they won the title in Serie A was in the 2021-22 season. But if we look back at the 2020-21 season, Inter Milan was champion and then in the following season AC Milan became champion. Maybe this cycle will repeat itself. Namely, AC Milan could become champions in Serie A in the coming season. Seeing them in pre-season did look quite extraordinary. Although the actual season may be different. But they really deserve to be one of the favorite teams in the race for the title in the coming season. Because even in the transfer window we can see that AC Milan is really serious about improving their current squad.

Manchester City realized that they needed to recover a little bit after this defeat. Milan won 3-2 with a clear game, they were very effective in front of goal. They took a 1-0 lead with Haaland's goal but it was not continued. Milan took a 2-1 lead, City equalized and Milan managed to win the match with Nasti scoring the third goal towards the end. It was a good warm-up match.

In friendly matches Manchester City often do not show their best performance, maybe it's because Pep Guardiola tried to make some changes and it was seen in some of their pre-season matches.
So Manchester City's defeat has no impact on anything.

And for AC Milan I saw quite impressive performance especially in some of their young players Lorenzo Colombo who scored 2 goals in this match but instead he planned to be loaned to the Empoli team for next season even with a purchase option, this is quite detrimental to the AC Milan team, the AC Milan team should focus more on developing young players for the future.

[Hvdv]

AC Milan football team played very excellent in last match against Manchester City F.C. football team. AC Milan football team did 3 goals and in comparison Manchester City F.C. team did 2 goals and that team lose the match by 1 goal. Colombo played well in this match and two excellent goals in this match . He did first goal at the 30 minutes of match andvje did second goal at 34 minutes of match. He is match winner in this match and his confidence was top class and he was dominant on other team and he bent the match to their sides by doing 2 goals at the start of match. McAtee did second goal for the team and at that time goals were equal but after that Nasti  changed the game and did last goal of match and after that team stopped the goals.

AC Milan played great game against Manchester City. Colombo scored two amazing goals which helped his team to win. He scored first goal at 30 minutes and second goal at 34 minutes like you have already mentioned. He was best player in game and helped his team to win. Manchester City tried to catch up but Nasti scored a goal that sealed win for AC Milan. Team played smart and worked hard which paid off in end. Colombo played so well that it will probably make him feel even more confident and I am excited to see how he helps his team in the future.

I don't think AC Milan's victory over Man City is too much but I am quite amazed to see AC Milan's new players who can immediately adapt quickly with the team and make contributions, maybe that is a positive side that AC Milan gets in this pre-season match.

The Real Madrid match is also important for Milan. If they win against Real Madrid and show dominant play, they will have shown in the pre-season camp that they are one of the strongest teams in Serie A. The teams they play are the strongest teams. The team they won against is Manchester City. The last Premier League champion to win the Champions League. That's why this win is more meaningful. For now, everything is going very well for Milan.

[bering]

Maybe not many people have paid attention to Napoli in the pre-season matches they have played. And I was the same, namely not paying much attention to Napoli in the pre-season matches they were playing. But after I checked their pre-season schedule, it turned out that they had played 3 times this pre-season. And the results of each match they played were quite impressive. Because Napoli always manages to win with quite a lot of scores. Like the following matches.

- Napoli vs Anaune Val di Nion (4-0)
- Napoli vs Mantova (3-0)
- Napoli vs Enatia (4-0)

Aren't those impressive scores. I'm starting to wonder if Napoli will indeed return to their best season thanks to their current new coach, Conte. If that happens then it will be the highest appreciation for the coach and the club.

Napoli total will have 5 friendlies matches for pre season tour and they have already to through an 3 matches with cleansheet status i think this is good progress although Napoli opponents is mostly as amateur clubs but so far Napoli has good progress and still unbeatable from those matches and before the match against Modena for first round of Copa Italy Napoli will fight against the team from Ligue 1 Brest and after this match Napoli opponent is Laliga team Girona

But i found one interesting thing because from 3 matches that Napoli have passed there was no Osimhen name on the Napoli starting lineup because for forward lines Conte is more likely to rely on other striker such as Walid Cheddira or Giovanni Simeone so i think this is showed that Conte didn't putting Osimhen as his next season plan and that's why Conte until now still look for new striker instead of Osimhen who more suitable for his strategy

Because this is only friendlies matches and Napoli only against the teams from lower division of Italy i think these matches results cannot be used as the reference to predict their performance of next season but Conte is experience manager especially in Serie A because previously he can bringing Inter Milan or Juventus can gets the trophies and maybe he is the right manager for Napoli and this team will be able to performing well again under him
