Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Italian Panic]

Let be honest, Como deserve the champions league spot more than Juventus this season. If they can dominate Juventus home and away, they surely deserve that spot more than Juventus who cannot even win against Sassuolo at home. The fact that Juventus allowed Locatelli who's capable of being a starter in the top ten teams in the Championship to take the penalty made me believe that fix match exit in this league but unfortunately I can not prove it. It's just better not to go to champions league and then start a serious project to strengthen the team ahead of next season.

I agree that Como deserve a place in the Champions League more than Juventus; at times they play perfect football and Fabregas is truly excellent.
However, one thing must be noted: the Italian national team is constantly without good player, and Como had zero italian players on the pitch. Perhaps it is time to follow France’s example, which has a mandatory quota for French players to be fielded. If teams like Como managed to find Italian players as easily as they find players of other nationalities, it would be a great help to their national team.

Como has scored a total of 31 goals, the second highest after Inter. I believe that Como has a better chance of qualifying to the champions league next season.

Many fans of the Italian League Serie A football tournament and they are consistent with Como with the points they earned after beating AS Roma which lifted Como to 4th in the standings, This is an important note and the best opportunity for Como to enter the UEFA Champions League this season can be strengthened based on their impressive performance in Serie A.

For this reason, Como even though they have a big chance of getting into the Champions League, they will be in danger of failing if they don't overcome administrative problems. One of the big problems could be failing to get into the Champions League. They are lacking the number of players who come from Italy itself The threat to Como could be failing to qualify for the Champions League and other administrative challenges such as submitting the Udinese Stadium as an alternative.

So the Como club currently cannot guide on a total of 31 goals alone to overcome administrative matters, it is important for them to be verified for the Champions League.

 It's so surprising cause they play like they're leading the table, Fabregas would be hot in the transfer market this summer, I believe that several bigger clubs in the league would demand for him after this season, but I really want him to continue with Como, he should reap what he Laboured for by managing them in the Champions League.
 What surprises me more is that Como doesn't even have high profiled players but they still do better, a good coach would always bring the best out of his players, Fabregas would be a great coach in future.

It is always best a coach continues with a team with which he was able to get some recognition for at least an extra season because quick exit can sometimes ruin them even as the demand for them will be high at the time,  we saw similar thing with Xabi, although he stayed an extra season, he was still not successful when he moved to a new side, I will wish for Fabregas to possibly win a title with como before exiting the team.

I'm a Juventus fan and I'll tell you without any problem that we didn't deserve to be in the Champions League last year, and we don't deserve it this year either. The team is not consistent enough. And also, they just want the Champions League qualification for the money, and then they throw these money away buying useless players and I know we can't even qualify to the next stage. I hope we end up in 5th position and we qualify for the Europa League, it could be a trophy Juventus could actually win.

It seems that any club that jams Como this time around will have no option but to sacrifice three points for them because they are currently, in form. Como is on a 1-0 lead against Pissa with an early goal on the 7th minutes. It was a wonderful finish from Diao to open the scoreline. Como is dominating the game and I expect more goals from them.

You can only experience such improvement from any club that want to join champion league tournament, because Como is very ready to join other tournament next season to display what will make the world know that they have potential players and coach in Como. For club to secured such goals in one game without allowed their opponent to secure a single goal in their home show that Como really want to break record in this Italian league tournament.

The strength Como is  involving in this Italian game show that they will keep trying their best to reach second position before the end of this tournament, because that is what will make other clubs to be afraid of Como club next tournament.

This is indeed a difficult fact to accept. Juventus certainly has a bigger name, but considering the performances of the two teams in question, Como is indeed more deserving of a place in the Champions League.

It's just that Como's mentality hasn't been tested in such a major competition, so this presents a challenge. However, if we compare their mentality to Serie A, they have great potential. It's rare for a newly promoted team to hit the ground running like Como, and Como proved they can compete in their first season in Serie A.

[m4r1o]

So I'm quite certain that in the upcoming transfer window, many big clubs will try to sign Como's players. In fact, one of them, like Nico Paz, is already confirmed to be buyback by Real Madrid.

yes, it's true, their style is absolutely important because it is characterized by the unique way of attacking, these are really strong and their way of playing makes me want to watch all their matches, they are really interesting and i are very excited to see how they will approach each new match, it really rekindles the desire to watch football.

If not that Como is doing well now, how many Italian national team players would have agreed to play for Como when they were in relegation? Nobody believed that Como will be this good this season. Am sure Como might have approached some Italian players before now to join them and they turned them down. Because it's strange that a team that's playing in the Italian league don't have any Italian player in their team. Maybe now that the profile of Como has increased they will now attract Italian players.

[Mayor of ogba]

Was Como celebrating a feast of goal today because I was surprised how Pissa allowed them to score five goals easily. However, Pissa is a weak team and Como took the opportunity to get as many goals as possible.

Como has scored a total of 31 goals, the second highest after Inter. I believe that Como has a better chance of qualifying to the champions league next season. Every season we see small clubs transforming in a giant in the league.

Pisa is a weak team in the Serie A, and with the way Como has performed this season you shouldn't be surprised that Como scored five goals against Pisa. I know very well that Como has been consistent in winning their matches and scoring goals this season but I am quite surprised that Como is the second team that have scored the most goals this season because there are clubs like AC Milan, Juventus, and Napoli that should have scored more goals than Como. Como has been extraordinary this season, and for them to maintain their good performance up till now they have good chance.

You can say yes but not all of them, some games have to lose or share points just to balance themselves with Como is very difficult which makes Como continue to be able to get the advantage even the last five games are unbeaten now, Pisa tonight is bad and can be said worse than before, so Como can harvest enough goals for them.
This victory is also one of stabilizing themselves in the standings because Juventus did not get points, next season will be fun it seems for Como, because they go directly to the champions league for the first step of promotion in the Serie A league.

[hyudien]

So in Serie A this week, it seems like only Juventus is dropping points, have they forgotten that the season is coming to an end? I don't know what else to say about this team, for several seasons they've only struggled to qualify for the Champions League, only to be humiliated there, and it looks like next season they'll only be able to qualify for the Europa League or even the Conference League, but wait, there's still one team that could produce a similar result to Juventus this week: Roma. Their performance against Lecce today was mediocre, making it likely that Roma will only manage a draw.

[barbara44]

With Roma doing badly, and Juventus keep failing, it was not Como being great but Como being lucky that got them here and I think they are going to finish the season fourth place by the looks of it as well. I understand that there is still time and anything could happen because the points gap is not huge, a few bad games and they are down again, but they are growing the gap between them and Roma, so the only team left standing that is battling Como is Juventus and they got a tie this week.

So it's clear that Como will not have that much to worry about, it is going to be easy and we should realize that things could get different on the long run. I think the best we could do is keep betting on these teams to have a chance and maybe they will do better.

[Iamgoat]

It is always best a coach continues with a team with which he was able to get some recognition for at least an extra season because quick exit can sometimes ruin them even as the demand for them will be high at the time,  we saw similar thing with Xabi, although he stayed an extra season, he was still not successful when he moved to a new side, I will wish for Fabregas to possibly win a title with como before exiting the team.

I know there are clubs who will have their eye on Fabregas right now and will be wishing they pick the guy as their manager but there could be a problem with such moves if Fabregas decides to move out of Como at this point. He may end up wasting his chances of winning. It is just like a player who is performing well at a club and suddenly decides to switch his club to a more competitive one without balancing his performance to some matured level yet, they might just end up losing the grip they are building in the existing team already. Grip does matters alot in football and it is not something which is gotten overnight, it is instead built over a long time with consistent efforts. Fabregas should remain in Como and work hard to perform better next season so they can work towards taking the championship of the league.

I really think that law that is implemented in France is very necessary as it can help in building players from that nation the should at least have like 4 to 5 Italian players from different clubs on the pitch that will really help in many ways, and as for Fabregas i really recommend him for a job well done like he's really done a great job at that Como team, like no one could have believed Como will be this good this season, and i have heard some football fans suggesting him for Chelsea as in some football fans are saying Chelsea should go and get him to coach the Chelsea team who knows he might turns out to be like Xabi Alonso.

Most of the players in the Italian national team won't accept to play for Como if Como had make a move to sign some of them when they gained promotion to the Serie A because Como isn't the dominating team in the Serie A but even as no Italian players is in Como, Como is doing quite well, and since they are currently seated on the fourth position in the Serie A table this season it's not a big deal that Como had zero Italian players.

It is very sure that there will be a club that will come for him with his great performances, and it is possible that it will be a big team. With this kind of performance at Como, the point is that it all depends on the offer. If a big club comes for him and has a better offer, it will be better for him to go to a big club. But if the offer does not make more sense, it will be better for him to remain at Como.in fact, if Como makes it to the Champions League, even Fabregas may not like to leave Como, and it will be better for him to stay and get Champions League experience, despite it being possible that they may not go far in the competition.

It is true that if some coaches leave the club where they are doing well to take an offer from a big club, they may end up becoming a failure at the new club. But let us also note that some coaches are just lucky. Take Kompany, for example if he did not take the offer from Bayern Munich, it is very possible that his ranking might not be as high as it is now.however, for any coach, it is always better to think carefully before making any decisions.

yes, Como's rapid rise to the top is due to some luck. Especially Roma's disorganized situation and Juventus sometimes good, sometimes not performance are making thing worse for them. But when you open the stats you can see that it is not all just luck.
Como is now second only to Inter in term of goal, 31 goal maybe, and they have already scored a lot of goal against Juventus and other big team. But Fabregas has completely cleaned up their game, it is completely organized football.

The gap to fourth position is still very small so if they lose a few match in a row they could go down. However they seem to be the most stable of the surprise teams at the moment.

[Slow death]

Inter is currently playing against Fiorentina. The game is in the first half, and Inter has scored one goal and is winning. If the game ends with this result, Inter would win and consolidate their lead in the table. However, if Inter drops points in this game, it could open up space for Milan to dream of the title, because mathematically it would still give Milan a good chance of overtaking Inter. As I bet on Inter, I'm hoping they win this game.

Roma also won their game against Lecce. It was a game in which Roma only managed to score one goal, even playing against an opponent in the relegation zone. I expected Roma to score more goals, but unfortunately they remain very inconsistent and are now 3 points behind Como. If they want to go to the Champions League next season, they need to win all their remaining games.

Como is now second only to Inter in term of goal, 31 goal maybe, and they have already scored a lot of goal against Juventus and other big team. But Fabregas has completely cleaned up their game, it is completely organized football.

You are mentioning the goals difference for Como but actually they scored 53 goals making them the second best scoring team in the league. Meanwhile Como just received 22 goals so relatively the best defence line. Juventus stats aren't any worse actually, maybe the goals received are a bit excessive but the way of the games played and the stability are the main keys of the success of Como until now. The points difference between these two teams aren't that much. Three points are easy to catch by either Juventus or Roma..

Well, it would be better if Fabregas could stay at Como at least until he achieves something significant with the club, such as winning the Serie A title or something similar in another competition. Because if a lucrative offer comes in for Fabregas from another team, it’s not certain he’ll be able to become a great coach there. After all, every team’s circumstances are very different. Sometimes a coach is given freedom by the club owner, and sometimes he isn’t. And sometimes, in big teams, there are too many star players whose egos are difficult for a young coach to manage, so the situation can sometimes spiral out of the coach’s control. We’ve seen many examples of such problems. But Fabregas seems very comfortable at Como right now. And I think he should stay with this team longer.
