Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[slapper]

In my opinion, there is no right word with the price that Napoli wants, that's why Napoli has not released Osimhen to the club he is interested in. Well, that's the problem with the Osimhen transfer case at this time, the complicated requirements are an obstacle to Osimhen's development this season, if he continues to be held back by Napoli, then most likely there will be no significant development and of course he will continue to get bad results in every match, of course not only that, this will even hinder Napoli's game this season with the problems of Osimhen and the management.

Napoli must be able to make decisions for their own good and also for Osimhen's good if Napoli wants to improve their own team this season. Because when there is a problem within the team, of course the results that the team will get will not be optimal throughout the season because the team still needs to solve the problem so that there are more satisfying results at the end of the season. So there is no other choice but to release Osimhen at a more reasonable price and also buy other players whose prices are also more logical for Napoli itself to accept.

Osimhen to Chelsea? It goes beyond only the money, people. Napoli is caught in a bind. Their season starts out unevenly, and they need a change-of direction. Disappearing Osimhen? That is gut-bashing. However, if Chelsea is serious, Napoli must play this wisely. Lukaku returning to Napoli? Though it's a risk, it might be the key. Conte seeks a target guy; Lukaku meets that criteria. It also maintains Napoli in the championship race

Napoli has to move quickly. Every day Osimhen is in limbo, it serves as diversion. The team's confidence falls just about here. This concerns Napoli's whole season, not only about one player. They must decide now since they have to do it. Dilly-dallying is over. We need some leadership right now

Well the fault is all from Napoli because they actually set the price of this player so high that  practically every club has shy away from the deal, if the price tag was place correctly I think osimien would have been in PSG by now but no, they had to just raise the bargain. But looking how dreadful their first game was I doubt if he would be in Napoli for too long because his contract isn't renew meaning no play I guess and Napoli currently now desperately needs some miracle to atleast get their campaign on track.

Negotiations between the two clubs are still ongoing but it looks like it will be tough considering Chelsea want £37M from Lukaku while Napoli don't want to pay that clause, he wants to be on another deal.

I think Napoli still insist on Lukaku while Chelsea want to release if they can redeem the clause, meaning Osimhen is still unlikely to go to Chelsea, but the closest rumor is to PSG so far there is no more close news.

I agree with you. This is just the first match so I think Napoli still have a lot of chances to secure Osimhen's contract. Will the club management keep him, sell him for 100 million euros or will they be sad to give room for negotiation. Napoli got a very bad result in their first match. Losing 0-3 to a team like Verona is a result that is beyond expectations. This could happen because of internal problems at the club. The uncertainty of Osimhen's future will greatly affect the club's performance because Osimhen is one of their core players. Although this does not mean that Napoli really needs Osimhen's performance. However, I think it would be better if they could ensure the contract for each player clearly.

Antonio Conte knows what needs to be done to improve his squad, he really wants Lukaku in his squad and Napoli are trying to sign him. Selling Osimhen would benefit Napoli and Chelsea are desperate for him, Napoli could get Lukaku plus some cash, while Chelsea could ease the burden as Lukaku is not in Enzo Maresca plans. The heavy defeat in the first game made Conte debut with Napoli less than impressive, of course he will try to organize his squad to improve the quality in the next match.

While Conte may know what they need to do, that doesn't change the fact that we are going to see them not make any moves until they can get rid of Osimhen. Because of that deal, they are still waiting and basically they are just using almost the same exact squad but with a manager that is wildly better. I am not saying that we are going to end up with Napoli doing worse, even with similar squad, the manager difference could make it possible for them to get a win, and I think it should be noted that they are going to end up with a good result given enough time.

I mean it's clear that we could make it work one way or another, and I think it's clear that we could see Napoli have some trouble with Osimhen situation for this season. It is not ending, and we are nearly at September, so I think by the looks of it they are going to just keep him and try to sell him next season instead, they do not have enough time to sell any of these people, seems like not a good idea.

Ademola Lookman has been rumoured to be signed by a top team this summer. PSG and Liverpool are said to be interested. Is this why he didn't play on the first week of the season?  

He is one of the most valuable players for Atalanta at the moment. His last season performance was really decent. But especially his amazing effort in the Europa League finale has drawn the attention to himself. Atalanta can consider selling him actually I think. While he is on fire, they can make quite much money on this sale. There are many other good strikers in the squad already. You have seen the way they started the season without him.  

It is very surprising how a goal machine has to leave and it seems that this information is quite accurate where Ademola Lookman will not be seen with Atalanta this season. Plettigoal said that the two teams competing to get him are PSG and Arsenal, for Liverpool it seems that it is not on his radar.

To be clear, PSG and Ademola Lookman have reached a verbal agreement and now all that remains is to complete the negotiation of the fee that will be spent by PSG to bring him in. Of course, Atalanta will be a little big-headed considering that Ademola Lookman is an important striker and it is not impossible that Atalanta will set an exorbitant fee to smooth this transfer. Arsenal have not moved fully and they are waiting for the right moment to launch their strategy.

Ademola Lookman is a very versatile striker. I think many teams would be interested in making him join their team. As @rendravolt has said previously, PSG are currently in a verbal agreement with them. His current market value is €40.00m according to transfermarkt.com. So I don’t think he would be sold under €45.00m or €50.00m. PSG needs a replacement of Mbappe and he would be a good replacement I believe, although I don’t think he can replace Mbappe totally.

If he joins PSG, I think this would be a good deal. Arsenal are also looking at this deal closely, they are also interested in buying him. But I don’t think he would be getting that much playing time in Arsenal. There are many quality wingers and strikers currently in Arsenal. But in PSG there is a vacancy as Mbappe has left recently. I believe young strikers like him would do great under Luis Enrique as well. He would solidify the squad of PSG.

Osimhen is worth the high price because of his quality, but the problem is that Osimhen is not considered worthy of that high price by the teams who are interested in him. Basically I think Osimhen is still a very good player as a productive center forward, but teams like PSG and Chelsea seem to have doubts about his value.

Napoli have the right to seal Osimhen at a high price, it will prevent the player from leaving easily to another team. Napoli likely still hopes that Osimhen will be in their squad for the next few seasons, but they must realize that Osimhen's price will likely fall if his performance this season is unstable.

It's wonderful to read the news today and to see that Dybala will finally continue to play for Roma in a football where the flags no longer exist, it's a privilege to see someone who still believes in what he does and still believes in the support of the fans he will have to find a starting place and it won't be easy but he certainly didn't betray the fans just for the money, congratulations

[MAAManda]

That looks like the result they should get, because Juventus is facing Como which is a promoted team, there's nothing wrong there, they did well with the dominance of the match and the 3 goals they had, in the next match Juventus will face AS Roma, maybe in this match we can see how much capability Juventus has for this season.

They will face Verona before Rome, I think this match is more important than the Rome match. Verona started the season well, beat Napoli and showed that they could be an assertive team. That's why I'm more curious about what to do with Verona than Rome. It will be a good match, both teams will play a competitive game and show that they want to stay at the top of the league

My bad, but I still don't miss the point of my statement. Even though Verona had a good performance in the first match because they managed to beat Napoli, that is still not enough to say that Verona has a good performance this season, because last season they were only in the middle of the standings.

The AS Roma match remains the initial reference for Juventus as to whether Juventus can actually have consistent performance this season or not. BTW, what do you think about the match against Verona? can Juventus win easily even if Verona brings confidence & plays at home?

[iBaba]

Napoli has to move quickly. Every day Osimhen is in limbo, it serves as diversion. The team's confidence falls just about here. This concerns Napoli's whole season, not only about one player. They must decide now since they have to do it. Dilly-dallying is over. We need some leadership right now

I love this assert you made about Osimhen been left in limbo. The club needs to do more by making a swift decision on the transfer matters. You cannot continue to delay this forever. Since Chelsea have shown vested interest on the player and I'm pretty sure the play is very much interested, release him and allow him to go while you take Lukaku as a bather with your whooping 100 million stake on the player. I was surprised to see a deal-breaker between PSG. The club had interest in the player and I know them with their capacity to acquire him but they could not. So, Napoli should just decide on time so the player can concentrate on his future.

[bering]

Inter Milan will attempts to gets their first winning this season and tomorrow they will fight against Lecce and Inzaghi looks dissapoint to see Inter Milan latest match result because last week they were failed to win and playing draw from Genoa so that's why Inzaghi probably will make some changes on Inter Milan starting lineup and probably he will be played Benjamin Pavard and Denzel Dumfries since the beginning of match because these players hasn't played last week then Inzaghi will give their chances to playing since first half

For front lines there is a news Lautaro Martinez is not in the good fitness and if he unable to played then Inzaghi will played Mehdi Taremi for striker position i think this is good option considering Mehdi Taremi performing well during pre season and seems he already adapt well with Inter Milan and if we see from squad condition obviously Inter Milan is much better than Lecce especially Lecce is not in the good shape after lost from Atalanta and i think for this match Inter Milan win is good pick or other option just like over 2.5 goals also good

I think Napoli still insist on Lukaku while Chelsea want to release if they can redeem the clause, meaning Osimhen is still unlikely to go to Chelsea, but the closest rumor is to PSG so far there is no more close news.

I think what Chelsea are doing here is a separate deal as they don’t want to do the two deals together, this deal is similar to the Gallagher and Felix deal which Chelsea prefers a separate negotiation for each deal. Right now a 37M for Romelu Lukaku seems way too much if you ask me considering that Chelsea do not want him and that he has a huge wage again, so a deal around £25m-£30m looks more realistic to me. As for Osimhen deal I don’t think it will happen, let’s analyze the signings Chelsea has done this summer it has been all Low budget buys as also small wages which is totally off the valuation of Oshimen. The only club I think can pay that outrageous amount now is the ligue 1 champions PSG, they are the only club for now except Napoli reduces that amount.

It's wonderful to read the news today and to see that Dybala will finally continue to play for Roma in a football where the flags no longer exist, it's a privilege to see someone who still believes in what he does and still believes in the support of the fans he will have to find a starting place and it won't be easy but he certainly didn't betray the fans just for the money, congratulations

It was definitely a decision that surprised everyone must especially the timing of the rejection, Dybala literally has just rejected a deal worth more than 5x his current wages, sometimes I think this decisions are usually influenced not just by the fans alone but also the family of the player, some families wouldn’t fancy moving to some certain part of the world due to their cultural differences there

Not everything will be money, we have players that are eager to make it to the top but we have the ones that would settled for the money. The Argentina international, Paulo Dybala have visions and a key player to provide crucial aides. Paulo Dybala developed patriotic love for AS Roma and he's not leaving, that's final. He made a very good decision that's well suitable for himself and he will explore into sectional visions.

Juventus this season is very different from the previous season with the presence of a new coach, Thiago Motta, Juventus has changed and has a strategy with a fresher game. Indeed, the first match in the league cannot be a measure of Juventus' true strength, especially when playing the first match against a promoted club. So, let's look at the next five matches where Juventus will meet AS Roma in the 3rd match and Napoli in the 5th match. If Juventus can get through these five matches, this can be a reference that Juventus really has significant progress this season and could be favored to compete for the Serie A trophy.

The next test will be against Verona. If you look at Juventus' performance in the first match, I am sure Juventus will win this match. Moreover, Juventus' starting 11 is currently very good and solid, at least Juventus' playing pattern has changed after scoring a goal, it will not be totally defensive like last season's coach. Under the guidance of Thiago Motta, Juventus' attackers have the enthusiasm to continue to add goals. Juventus' squad this season is very fresh starting from the goalkeeper, defender, winger, and midfielder. So I think they can beat Verona in the next match.

Well the fault is all from Napoli because they actually set the price of this player so high that  practically every club has shy away from the deal, if the price tag was place correctly I think osimien would have been in PSG by now but no, they had to just raise the bargain. But looking how dreadful their first game was I doubt if he would be in Napoli for too long because his contract isn't renew meaning no play I guess and Napoli currently now desperately needs some miracle to atleast get their campaign on track.

Its obvious that at some point maybe Napoli wasn't willing to let go of osimhen else what other better logical explanation do they have as to why such high price tag was placed on osimhen such that almost all the teams that did showed interest at some point lost interest and aren't coming back again. there was a time i learnt that one of the teams bidding for osimhen was ready to get him at 86k euros but Napoli wasn't willing to let go so he had to stay back and the danger of this is that since he's not willing to really stay at Napoli again, he's definitely not goin to preform excellently again and he will make sure to exit next season after the expiration of his contract. The current desperation of Napoli that they are suffering now is all their fault because they would have resolved this long before now if only they had don the lukaku osimhen swap deal.

He made a very good decision that's well suitable for himself and he will explore into sectional visions.

I simply believe that Paulo Dybala still has a few years to play at a very good level and is still aiming to be a part of the Argentine national team, if he had gone to play in Saudi Arabia his performance would have waned and the doors of the national team could have closed. So I think his choice is a pretty smart one and he is not just thinking about money. However I don't think it is attachment to the Roma shirt, after only one year in the capital of Italy, I highly doubt it

The current desperation of Napoli that they are suffering now is all their fault because they would have resolved this long before now if only they had don the lukaku osimhen swap deal.

The Osimhen drama continues because so far no team is really serious about recruiting him because they chose to withdraw because the price set by Napoli is quite high. On the other hand, Conte managed to recruit Lukaku from Chelsea and we will wait for Napoli to officially announce it on social media. Well, if you look at Napoli's success in recruiting Lukaku, of course their front line will be more aggressive this season because Conte believes Lukaku can bring change to Napoli's progress this season.

If Napoli doesn't want to sell Osimhen this season, of course we will see changes in Napoli's formation this season. Will Osimhen and Lukaku be ideal partners for Napoli's front line or will Conte bench Osimhen until the end of the season because Conte believes more in Lukaku's quality.

[red4slash]

Osimhen to Chelsea? It goes beyond only the money, people. Napoli is caught in a bind. Their season starts out unevenly, and they need a change-of direction. Disappearing Osimhen? That is gut-bashing. However, if Chelsea is serious, Napoli must play this wisely. Lukaku returning to Napoli? Though it's a risk, it might be the key. Conte seeks a target guy; Lukaku meets that criteria. It also maintains Napoli in the championship race

Napoli has to move quickly. Every day Osimhen is in limbo, it serves as diversion. The team's confidence falls just about here. This concerns Napoli's whole season, not only about one player. They must decide now since they have to do it. Dilly-dallying is over. We need some leadership right now

If in the end Chelsea and Napoli can be relieved by not complicating the release clause in the end they will move easily.
The reason Lukaku is still at Chelsea and Osimhen has not left despite their desire to leave the club they are currently defending is because the benchmark for the release clause set is so large that it disrupts the negotiations that make them stay even though they really want to leave.

If in the end this is allowed, I think it is difficult because Lukaku will not get a place at Chelsea and likewise Osimhen even though he remains at Napoli as a line up but with the conditions he has now it is difficult for Osimhen to give his best performance.
If only Napoli and Chelsea set a reasonable clause for this player then I think everything will become easier.

Simone Inzhaghi is one manager that's shown over the years how important it is for him to always win his games and that's why he was dissatisfied with his club's result against Genoa last weekend in their first league game of the season. Inter Milan host Leece tomorrow in their second league game of the season and if they must successfully defend their league title this season, winning that game should play a huge part. Despite not winning last weekend, I still consider Inter Milan as the favorite club to win the scudetto this season.

[Frankolala]

In my opinion, there is no right word with the price that Napoli wants, that's why Napoli has not released Osimhen to the club he is interested in. Well, that's the problem with the Osimhen transfer case at this time, the complicated requirements are an obstacle to Osimhen's development this season, if he continues to be held back by Napoli, then most likely there will be no significant development and of course he will continue to get bad results in every match, of course not only that, this will even hinder Napoli's game this season with the problems of Osimhen and the management.

Napoli must be able to make decisions for their own good and also for Osimhen's good if Napoli wants to improve their own team this season. Because when there is a problem within the team, of course the results that the team will get will not be optimal throughout the season because the team still needs to solve the problem so that there are more satisfying results at the end of the season. So there is no other choice but to release Osimhen at a more reasonable price and also buy other players whose prices are also more logical for Napoli itself to accept.

But looking how dreadful their first game was I doubt if he would be in Napoli for too long because his contract isn't renew meaning no play I guess and Napoli currently now desperately needs some miracle to atleast get their campaign on track.

Napoli is doing harm to themselves and Osimhen due to them trying to make huge profit from him and distabilizing their own team without Osimhen and them not bringing Lukaku to replace Osimhen. Lukaku is just there in Chelsea doing nothing a. D Osimhen is also in Napoli doing nothing. Why don't Napoli accept the price offer of PSG and give them Osimhen.

They can use part of the money to bring in Lukaku to the club so that he can start performing hi SC role immediately. The earlier the better ro Napoli to decide what the want or else it might be too late for them.
