Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[SmartCharpa]

We can see that 3 AC Milan matches (besides their match against Barcelona) ended without a win in Serie A, and what's even sadder is that they got it when facing someone who was not better than them in terms of strength. In the first match they had to be satisfied with a draw, in the second match they had to suffer a defeat and in the last match they had to feel another draw. This is a start that is far from satisfying.
In the next match they will face Venezia who is one of the clubs promoted to Serie A this season, if they get bad results again in this match, then their confidence will decrease. Moreover, it will shake their mentality which will then face Liverpool in the Champions League.

Ac Milan had a poor start this season, and they aren't playing like one of the top teams in Seria A. This is the performance they had at the end of last season when they couldn't win any of their opponents and were eliminated in the Europa League quarterfinals against Roma. Surprising that Milan is still performing the same way after getting more players, they only got two points in the previous three games and lost to a team that was promoted to Seria A this season. It's embarrassing that Paulo Fonseca is having poor results on his debut against little opponents; they haven't faced top teams like Juventus, Inter Milan, Roma, or Atalanta, and they can't get a point.

Furthermore, this performance will not get them anywhere this season, when AC Milan took the lead in their last game against Lazio, I expected them to win and get their first win of the season, but their defense wasn't strong enough, and they conceded two goals in just four minutes of the second half. If Milan does not improve before the Champions League games, they will not advance with their current performance.

if he manages to find a good team behind him and manages to turn his back on the goal I would say that Lukaku is the strongest attacker that Napoli can find at the moment and I must say that he also has a good specific weight and is very big therefore difficult to scoring, regarding the goals, the championship has just started, let's give it time

No doubt Lukaku is one of the experienced and strong striker around Europe currently. But he is not a striker a team can depend on because of his inconsistency. It will be safer to have another good striker to make the attack shape. He is not as fast and strong as he used to be and misses opportunities frequently. He is not in Napoli because of his quality but because of the cordial relationship he has with Antonio Conte. Napoli's coach believes the Belgian fits his style of play, so we have to give them time. He has already scored in his debut game, maybe more goals are on the way.

You have mentioned an important point. Lukaku is a talented player. But he cannot maintain the consistency of performance. In the last 2/3 seasons we have seen Lukaku perform well in few matches, but most of the matches he is unable to score or assist. Napoli, on the other hand, needed a striker who could score regularly. I doubt if Lukaku can meet Napoli's needs.

However, Lukaku spent the best part of his career under Antonio Conte. He was able to score a lot of goals with Inter Milan. And this team was coached by Conte. This is why Conte has wanted Lukaku in his squad ever since he arrived at Napoli. If CONte can use Lukaku properly then maybe we will see a better performance from Lukaku.

In the last 2/3 seasons we have seen Lukaku perform well in few matches, but most of the matches he is unable to score or assist. Napoli, on the other hand, needed a striker who could score regularly. I doubt if Lukaku can meet Napoli's needs.

Because he is older and older with time and his body naturally get worse, hence his performances get worse. In two latest season for Roma and Inter Milan in Serie A, he scored 13 and 10 goals that is not too bad for an old striker like Lukaku. In addition, when a player is old enough, he will struggle to maintain stability in performances and if we look back before era of Messi and Ronaldo, it was hard to find players who could score more than 20 goals each seasons. The goal productive era of Messi and Ronaldo with 40, 50 goals in a single season, makes us considering performances of other scorers are very bad, actually acceptable.

However, Lukaku spent the best part of his career under Antonio Conte. He was able to score a lot of goals with Inter Milan. And this team was coached by Conte. This is why Conte has wanted Lukaku in his squad ever since he arrived at Napoli. If CONte can use Lukaku properly then maybe we will see a better performance from Lukaku.

In seasons with Inter Milan and Conte, in Serie A seasons 2019 - 2020 and 2020 - 2021, Lukaku scored 23 and 24 goals for them. These stats would be very impressive but if we compare them with 40 or 50 goals from Messi, and Ronaldo, Lukaku is nothing.

Conte believes in Lukaku's ability, and he gave him a chance. and Lukaku optimally utilized the opportunity. And in the end, his ability was proven with the goal he gave. Although this is only the beginning of the season, but this is a very good start.

When a coach believes his player it brings out the best in the player and that is exactly the same situation with Conte and Lukaku. Conte knows the players that will suit his style of play and it is why he always wants to have Lukaku on his side, I don’t see the difference much between Lukaku and Osimhen but Conte prefers to work with Lukaku because of the trust they have built and that is why it was easy for Lukaku to easily adapt because he has worked with Conte and knows what he wants.

He is familiar with Conte’s philosophy that’s what makes it a lot easier for him and also being used to life in Italy  makes it more easier. Conte is in love with Lukaku hold on play style of football so it will be a good thing for club entirely but then some players might still find it difficult to adapt to Conte’s approach.

[bastisisca]

AC Milan is indeed in a bad state, they have many weaknesses now in the squad, I see that it is much worse than the beginning of last season than the current season, Paulo Fonseca needs to fix it before being embarrassed by Arne Slot with, the article many say that if they lose to Liverpool Fonsesca may be in danger as a manager.

Because AC Milan does not have to be this bad and I also think it is likely that his mentality will be hit further if he loses to this new Serie A challenger, but what we cannot imagine is whether Fonseca deliberately hides his strength to be able to focus on the Champion League alone.

If they draw or lose even against Venezia, a very small and very weak newly promoted team, then there really is a big problem at Milan
We need to start understanding what the problem is and try to solve it or this season will go terribly. I hope they understand the problem and fix it.

He has already scored in his debut game, maybe more goals are on the way.

If we talk about experience and his ability to score goals, of course we can't doubt it anymore, but for now I don't have much hope that Lukaku will become the striker that Napoli needs this season after losing Osimhen, last season Lukaku recorded a brilliant performance with Roma by scoring 21 goals during his loan, but as he gets older of course sooner or later we will no longer see his performance being consistent throughout the season, Lukaku is one of the strikers who has physicality and good goal scoring instincts but in terms of speed and also his dribbling skills of course he is still inferior to other players at the moment, so to continue to support Lukaku goal productivity, the Napoli players should be able to provide good and accurate assists at this time for him.

Although Lukaku is a striker who is highly desired by the coach because they have tactical compatibility but still Lukaku does not have the speed in attacking like Victor Oshimen honestly I am quite annoyed with Napoli's decision to prefer Lukaku than Oshimen who clearly has stronger abilities and if seen from the age aspect Oshimen is clearly more advantageous for the next few years while Lukaku as he gets older his performance will definitely decline and not like before, Antonio Conte was actually quite reckless in choosing Lukaku he is no longer the player he used to be when he was still at Inter Milan now his abilities are different we will see how many goal opportunities Lukaku creates at Napoli will he be better than Victor Oshimen.

If Milan does not improve before the Champions League games, they will not advance with their current performance.

I heard that Milan's poor performance was due to internal conflict in the squad's dressing room. some players don't seem to like their new coach on the team. And it is clear that discomfort at a club will have a big impact on the club's performance. Especially if coaches and players cannot understand each other. Well currently Milan have started the season worse than last season actually. And if this continues then the Fonseca era will be worse than the Pioli era.
But because the season is still long. And we don't know what will happen to all the clubs in Serie A. Because it is possible that a club that started the season well will actually get worse in the middle of the season. And conversely, a club that started badly could recover from the middle of the season and rise quickly to the top of the rankings. There will still be many things to happen.

Everyone is humming over the big man's relocation to Napoli. With Roma, he's off a 21-goal season, hence the scoring touch is obviously still there. Lukaku is no longer the fastest man on the field though. For him at this point in his career, the Premier League tempo might have been perhaps too fast. Having said that, Napoli requires a clinical finisher since he is still one.

The team now has to play to his strong points. He will do the rest; just need to get him the ball in the correct spots. Not to mention, Conte is adept in helping Lukaku to flourish. Together at Inter, they had an amazing run; I wouldnt be surprised to see some of that magic resurrected in Naples. Sure, it is somewhat a gamble. Still, occasionally the greatest risks result in the greatest benefits.

This is the performance they had at the end of last season when they couldn't win any of their opponents and were eliminated in the Europa League quarterfinals against Roma. Surprising that Milan is still performing the same way after getting more players,

So far, Milan's strongest opponent is Lazio who might be able to enter the top club. However, the result is also the same, only able to draw. But, the worst is their defeat against Parma, this is very bad. That's why many people doubt Milan performance in the beginning.

If they draw or lose even against Venezia, a very small and very weak newly promoted team, then there really is a big problem at Milan
We need to start understanding what the problem is and try to solve it or this season will go terribly. I hope they understand the problem and fix it.

It would be too much and embarrassing if we draw or lose. Judging from the performance of both clubs, the conditions are almost similar. However, AC Milan's squad composition, from various sides, should be much stronger than Venezia. Therefore, AC Milan must win this time.

AC Milan must have bigger chances of winning, and they must be able to win.

Antonio Conte is going nowhere, he has the tighten right to make things better for the club. He's in full control and this time, he will be nailing the ultimate priorities for the club. Napoli management should filter most of these sectors because they're probably not helping. I can't think Napoli of today would dropped their most valuable player, Victor Osimhen. So Lukaku the new attacker shouldn't feel anything different, anything can happen in this case. Romelu Lukaku fits into the space left vacant by Victor Osimhen. He's one of the rounding top player in Napoli and we understand he's in the solid plan of Antonio Conte.

It is not easy for Paulo Fonseca to continue from what happened last season, every new coach needs a process to adapt and Paulo Fonseca must start building the AC Milan team from the beginning again so if AC Milan is currently experiencing difficulties I think it is still a natural thing because they are with their new coach

Indeed, the results achieved by AC Milan in several early matches this season are disappointing, it seems to be the opposite of their impressive pre-season results but I am still quite optimistic that Paulo Fonseca can make AC Milan better, maybe everything takes time.

[Fuso.hp]

Not the best performance by Juventus last night against Roma. It surprised me because I expected more. It was a sold-out stadium, and they had a chance for a third straight victory. Both teams made a lot of mistakes in ball distribution and seemed happy with a draw.

Dušan lacked concentration throughout the match. His effort in the first half was badly taken, and he would often attempt to run with the ball with his head low and not looking around. This was obvious in the second half when he could have passed the ball to Conceicao who would have been in a 1-on-1 situation with the keeper but he didn't see him run towards the penalty area behind his back. A minor setback, but it's still a team in the making, having brought in many new players and a different manager.

The match played between Roma and Juventus yesterday was a highly contested match. Both teams played well in last night's match but neither team managed to score against the other team. If the two teams are in control of the ball during the entire match, if a percentage of it is done, then the two teams will be in equal position and the accuracy of the passes that the players of the two teams will pass to each other will be equal. We expect such performances from every team in every league. Although neither team scored a goal, I think those who watched this match thoroughly enjoyed the game. Best of luck to these two teams for their upcoming matches.

Honestly their match was very interesting, I like the way match ended: The match end with highly contested, because both the teams playing well even their possession was equal is only the shots on target that I see that the  Juventus has the highest number, if not they games doesn’t have so much challenges every teams try as much possible to maintain their own position. But when the match was about to start a lot of people was having higher expectations for Juventus that they will find the match very easy to win; and the Roma make the match so difficult for them to win.

Both Inter Milan and AC Milan have played three matches each, where Inter Milan is currently in the first position of the points table with 7 points in the first three matches, on the contrary, AC Milan is at the bottom of the points table with fewer points from the matches. Last season Inter Milan's closest rival was AC Milan but with the way AC Milan have been performing since the start of the season, it is doubtful that we will see them between 1 and 5 in the points table. Juventus and Inter Milan have equal number of points, considering the current performance we can consider Juventus as Inter Milan's closest rivals. Inter Milan have been single-handedly dominating the Italian league for a few seasons now so it would be much more exciting if a new team wins this season.

Conte believes in Lukaku's ability, and he gave him a chance. and Lukaku optimally utilized the opportunity. And in the end, his ability was proven with the goal he gave. Although this is only the beginning of the season, but this is a very good start.

Conte is in love with Lukaku hold on play style of football so it will be a good thing for club entirely but then some players might still find it difficult to adapt to Conte’s approach.

they do understand each other. I mean Conte and Lukaku. Because they have indeed achieved good achievements together in the past, namely at Inter Milan. So when they work together again as coaches and players, they don't need time to adapt again because they already understand each other. And that's a good thing indeed. But yeah, for other players at Napoli, maybe they still need time to adapt. So Napoli is currently not in optimal condition. But I see positive developments in this team.
Lukaku made his debut at Napoli by scoring 1 goal. And I think that will indeed be a good impression for this player at Napoli. But I always feel surprised that Lukaku can only play well when he is at an Italian clubs. But when he was in the national team we couldn't see his sharpness well. I think Lukaku really suits the Italian style of football.

Inter Milan have been single-handedly dominating the Italian league for a few seasons now so it would be much more exciting if a new team wins this season.

It's still early in the season, some top Serie A teams have not found their best performance especially AC Milan who are adapting to their new coach while Inter Milan are still as strong as last season. For the competition for the Scudetto I think Inter Milan will not be as easy as last season, this season there are several top Serie A teams who have made many improvements so that it is possible that there will be fierce competition given to Inter Milan such as Juventus and AS Roma and even AC Milan should not be ignored, now because it is still early in the season so we cannot see the real strength of the team.

[Frankolala]

AC Milan is indeed in a bad state, they have many weaknesses now in the squad, I see that it is much worse than the beginning of last season than the current season, Paulo Fonseca needs to fix it before being embarrassed by Arne Slot with, the article many say that if they lose to Liverpool Fonsesca may be in danger as a manager.

We need to start understanding what the problem is and try to solve it or this season will go terribly. I hope they understand the problem and fix it.

I don't expect a draw or lost in that match for Milan because Milan is among one of the strongest teams in Italy, and for them to drop form to the point that small club is a challenge of winning is a problem because I don't see the assurance that they would win the match.

The management and the coach needs to act fast so that the problem is fixed, otherwise, this season might bring misfortune for Milan if the problem is not properly taken care of.

[Docnaster]

Ac Milan had a poor start this season, and they aren't playing like one of the top teams in Seria A. This is the performance they had at the end of last season when they couldn't win any of their opponents and were eliminated in the Europa League quarterfinals against Roma. Surprising that Milan is still performing the same way after getting more players, they only got two points in the previous three games and lost to a team that was promoted to Seria A this season. It's embarrassing that Paulo Fonseca is having poor results on his debut against little opponents; they haven't faced top teams like Juventus, Inter Milan, Roma, or Atalanta, and they can't get a point.

Furthermore, this performance will not get them anywhere this season, when AC Milan took the lead in their last game against Lazio, I expected them to win and get their first win of the season, but their defense wasn't strong enough, and they conceded two goals in just four minutes of the second half. If Milan does not improve before the Champions League games, they will not advance with their current performance.

AC Milan's poor end to last season have continued this season despite the change in the managerial position at the club. Paulo Fonseca who was appointed as the club's manager to replace Stefano Pioli who who mutually left the club after the end of last season is having a difficult start to life at the San Siro. The club's current poor start to the season should be a concern to the club's management as well as the players because they must do anything within their strength to improve from what we've seen so far if they really want to have a better season that what we saw from them last season.

[Republikcoin.com]

It is not easy for Paulo Fonseca to continue from what happened last season, every new coach needs a process to adapt and Paulo Fonseca must start building the AC Milan team from the beginning again so if AC Milan is currently experiencing difficulties I think it is still a natural thing because they are with their new coach

If it is only about the adaptation of the coach, of course AC Milan still has time to rise this season because every coach only needs to apply a strategy that suits the playing style of the current Milan players so that it should not take long for a coach to give the best for his team. Although it does not have to be too fast, but every team definitely needs a win to be able to rise and not slump just because of the new coach, especially last season Milan was not too bad in terms of its achievements in Serie A even though Milan did not become champions.

[Jatiluhung]

I don't expect a draw or lost in that match for Milan because Milan is among one of the strongest teams in Italy, and for them to drop form to the point that small club is a challenge of winning is a problem because I don't see the assurance that they would win the match.

The management and the coach needs to act fast so that the problem is fixed, otherwise, this season might bring misfortune for Milan if the problem is not properly taken care of.

What is happening to AC Milan right now is really not good at all. They even lost to Parma, who was a team that had just been promoted to Serie A from Serie B. And this defeat was probably the worst defeat for AC Milan. And actually AC Milan has everything to become an even stronger team this season. It's just that it seems like their new coach hasn't been able to develop a suitable strategy to maximize all the potential that exists in this team. And that's very unfortunate. Because if this continues, AC Milan will be increasingly left behind by the other strong teams in Serie A. Milan's new coach must immediately improve the situation within the team. And he must try to be more accepted by all the players there. In order to create good harmonization. And usually if harmonization is created in a club, the club will develop quickly and become strong. As happened with Real Madrid. Where we very rarely hear of internal conflict between players and coaches. And the result is that they are a superior team. And I think Milan should also be like that.

[Slow death]

We can see that 3 AC Milan matches (besides their match against Barcelona) ended without a win in Serie A, and what's even sadder is that they got it when facing someone who was not better than them in terms of strength. In the first match they had to be satisfied with a draw, in the second match they had to suffer a defeat and in the last match they had to feel another draw. This is a start that is far from satisfying.
In the next match they will face Venezia who is one of the clubs promoted to Serie A this season, if they get bad results again in this match, then their confidence will decrease. Moreover, it will shake their mentality which will then face Liverpool in the Champions League.

Ac Milan had a poor start this season, and they aren't playing like one of the top teams in Seria A. This is the performance they had at the end of last season when they couldn't win any of their opponents and were eliminated in the Europa League quarterfinals against Roma. Surprising that Milan is still performing the same way after getting more players, they only got two points in the previous three games and lost to a team that was promoted to Seria A this season. It's embarrassing that Paulo Fonseca is having poor results on his debut against little opponents; they haven't faced top teams like Juventus, Inter Milan, Roma, or Atalanta, and they can't get a point.

Furthermore, this performance will not get them anywhere this season, when AC Milan took the lead in their last game against Lazio, I expected them to win and get their first win of the season, but their defense wasn't strong enough, and they conceded two goals in just four minutes of the second half. If Milan does not improve before the Champions League games, they will not advance with their current performance.

To add to what you have already said, Milan has conceded 6 goals in 3 games. In each game, Milan concedes 2 goals. Milan's defense in these first 3 games is worse than the defense they had last season and it is becoming clear that nothing has changed at Milan since last season, but the most shocking thing is to see that Milan's directors consider this situation as something that is not a cause for concern and still say that they support the coach's actions. when you read this type of statement:

Furlani confirms confidence in Paulo Fonseca

Questions for Furlani during the conference were inevitable, and it was impossible not to address the poor start to the season: Milan has only obtained two points in three matches and has yet to find a victory, conceding six goals (two per game) and showing an even shakier defence than last season under Pioli. The CEO preached calm: "We would have liked to have 9 points, of course, but there’s no panic. I wouldn’t talk about important matches or anything like that. We are satisfied with the work the coach has done in preparation, we are with him, and the team is with him as well."

We realize that Milan's biggest problem may be the management. In recent years, Milan has become an irrelevant team, it no longer has great players, I'm talking about having players who are very famous. In the past, Milan had Ronaldinho, it had Kaka. But today, Milan doesn't have a good squad. I even wonder how the hell they managed to win Serie A in the 2021-22 season.

when I looked at this picture:

I thought: they got lucky in the 2021-22 season

[AprilioMP]

Everyone is humming over the big man's relocation to Napoli. With Roma, he's off a 21-goal season, hence the scoring touch is obviously still there. Lukaku is no longer the fastest man on the field though. For him at this point in his career, the Premier League tempo might have been perhaps too fast. Having said that, Napoli requires a clinical finisher since he is still one.

The shock defeat against Hellas Verona was certainly surprising. At that time Lukaku was not in the Napoli squad. Then, Napoli won 3-0 over Bologna which was good news for Lukaku even though Lukaku was not in the Napoli squad either.
Making his debut against Parma, he made the whole stadium cheer because their hopes of not dropping points were realized and he scored on his debut.
It is very likely that Lukaku will be the one who decides Napoli in every game. It is not impossible considering he is a player who has proven his quality in Serie A while he was not on the operating table.
