Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

Como deserves to taste the Champions League after building a great project around some youth players and a great new coach like Fabregas,they made all the correct calls and build a team where the talent is the first thing and the work flow is the second most relevant thing, i feel like Fabregas is putting some of the La Masia teaching into this team.

With great pleasure, I note that Como has won the hearts of many, not because they are fans, but simply because they started from the bottom and worked hard. With excellent guidance, this is proof that great results can be achieved.
In my opinion, Como, as a Juventus fan, was the only team that truly passionate me, which gave me the pleasure of following and being curious about the work they will do next season.

because it's the classic tale of the small team that manages to climb and reach the big ones
everything is beautiful
but if he doesn't strengthen next season he will get slapped in the Champions League
You're not going to play with the Italian teams, you risk making a bad impression

That’s exactly what’s going to happen next season: Como have no European experience and find themselves catapulted into Europe’s top competition. Will they manage to make a good impression? Hmm, I don’t think so – I have my serious doubts!
The same fate befell Bologna two years ago, who didn’t even manage to make it into the top 24 to qualify for the play-offs/round of 16

Yes, last season, AC Milan finished in 8th position, and this season they finished 5th on the table. It really shows that they performed better than last season based on where they ended. But despite finishing this season in a better position than last season, AC Milan did not really play as well as expected, especially toward the ending of the season, which shows that the coach is less serious.Because how can a team be in 2nd position when they still have fewer matches remaining, but at the end of the season they finish in 5th? It is really a bad tactic from the coach. So, sacking Massimiliano Allegri is the best solution because even if they give him more opportunities, it is very possible that the team will still end up having a worse season than this one.So, I don’t think he was unlucky this season; it was also a lack of good tactics

They lack of consistency is what killed AC Milan most, if not, when the season started their performances where very powerful and so much better, but after a while they begin performing poorly if they told me that AC Milan will end up that position they later finish up with I will never believe. I will said that their coach also constituted because if to say he really serious and care about the team they couldn’t end up in that position, how can a team that finished in 8th position last season still find this season very difficult to finished up in a good position I think their coach have to do something about the teams if he doesn’t want this to repeat himself next season.

So Como finally qualified for next seasons champions League, congratulations to Fabregas for leading his team to the most prestigious club competition. Como against all odds made it by dumping some of the Italian club big names on the final day to make it to the top 4. Como is one hell of a team, they moved from scratch to the top flight and their success story is something to write home about. They are actually a motivation to other small clubs that with the right mentality, players and coaches, they can achieve promotion even if they start from the scratch. As a football fan, I'm so happy for them on where they are currently.

Como was arguably the biggest surprise team of the season. They played very well at the beginning of the season, their performance dropped for a while, but they had a fantastic season at the end. I'm excited to see them in the Champions League next season. I'm sure it will be a different and great season. It's also interesting that teams like Milan, Juventus, and Atalanta won't be in the Champions League. However, the standings were a bit different this season

Como is one of the fastest growing team in Europe now. About ten years ago, they were playing in the fourth division of Italian league due to bankruptcy as a result of poor management. Fast forward to two years back, they were in the Serie B battling their way up to Serie A and they achieved it eventually. Since their coming on board on the top flight, they have been impressive and now they are set to play their first European competition in the history of the club. It's champions league, not Europa or lower European tournament. I don't know how to explain without looking stupid that Juventus, Milan and Lazio finished below Como this season. The current format of champions league is a bit harder than the old format of group stage. When will have a better discussion after the fixture for next season is released.

That’s they said that never underrate anyone in life, I was expecting that Como will finish up in that position but with their much efforts they make it happen I’m so excited seeing Como in the champion league next season. What a big surprise that almost three teams most of people expected them to be at the top of the table end up below the table what big disappointment most especially, Juventus and Milan that where able to started the season with a good performances; but at the of the season end up below Como football is a wonderful they should try harder next time.

Milan really shouldn’t rush to fire the coach they’ve brought in. They should have considered the depth of their squad from the start, which, to be honest, isn’t very good. This team does need more high-quality players. And if the issue is money, then the team should look for alternatives by scouting promising young players who haven’t yet been noticed by big clubs, rather than focusing on star players who will undoubtedly be very expensive, unless the club’s financial situation is strong enough. But I feel this team is capable of buying better players. And they shouldn’t focus on high prices. Instead, they should focus more on finding talented young prospects. Because the club has already invested significantly in bringing in players, but the results aren’t yet visible. So the problem might lie in the effectiveness of player recruitment during the transfer window.

While it is understandable to desire some consistency, they are literally rebuilding the office as well. They are firing the whole staff and getting new people in for almost every position and we are talking about a situation where they are not going to get the best out of this, it is not going to be easy to see something like this and we should not be expecting them to do fine if they kept all those people.

With this change, if they do get someone good in all those positions then they are going to do fine, and if they get someone who is terrible then they are not going to do fine, so there is no way of knowing if they will get better or worse, but they knew that it was time to take a risk since if they stayed the same then it would go bad for sure, this way they have a chance at least.

Judging from the team and the kind of low budget they are running in compared to these other top teams, it's really expected for them to have a drop in form and it's commendable they still strived to get qualification.i just learnt that Como came through Serie D, came 10th and won the league the next season. Got promoted t Serie C, came 10th the next season they won the Serie C and got promoted to Serie B. Came 13th the first season and was in second position the next season and was promoted to Serie A. In Serie A, they came 10th in their first season and this season came 4th. There's a significant progress in the team on their way up.

I'm a Napoli fan, but Como really impressed me with their performances this season. Especially Fabregas, he showed that you can be a strong authority figure and still have a good relationship with your players at the same time. An incredible achievement.I don't know if this team can compete at a high level in the UCL yet, but i think they need a few good signings, and one of them should be an experienced leader, someone like Luka Modric. That's the type of profile they need. The fighting spirit and team chemistry are the most important things, and they definitely have that

[tygeade]

Juventus still hasn't overcome its striker problem. They're struggling to score goals. They need to pay a very high price to bring in a good striker this year. Otherwise, they will continue to be a team that can't score goals in Italy. They can't get enough efficiency from their wing players. They need a good striker. Especially towards the end of the season, they need to be in better shape, but for the last two years they've been performing poorly at the end of the league. This year Milan showed a similar thing, losing at home in the last week and therefore dropping in the Champions League standings. Como, on the other hand, achieved the difficult task and will be in the Champions League next year.

It's easy to say that Juventus need a good striker, but where are all these good strikers right now? Even outside of Italy, if we take a look at the goalscorers besides the impossible names (Haaland, Mbappé, Kane), who's available? Igor Thiago? Deniz Undav? Guirassy? I think that right now there is a huge shortage of good strikers in general, especially young ones.

Don't go too far, the team that destroyed them at UCL had Osimhen, they can just knock the doors and ask Galatasaray to get him for like 100 million or something. Now I know that you think that Juventus doesn't have that kind of money, but they do have some players who are useless, at least to me they look useless.

If they make even 50 million out of selling some of them, and spend another 50 from normal transfer budget they have, that's 100. If they can't even sell 50 million worth of players, or do not have 50 million budget, then of course they are not going to be good next season, you need at least that much to get better. Plus, Osimhen is like what 26?27 years old? That dude could play another 5 season easily, if not more, and can provide you with bunch of goals every single season.

[changaa]

in the end Como succeeded, he achieved the feat!!
He managed to get into the Champions League, taking places away from Milan and Juventus.
congratulations to them, they deserved it
Milan, no big deal, will play a cup and will recover slowly, I hope that the Milan and Juventus clubs don't do anything stupid

Congratulations to Como, a truly incredible team, they deserved this qualification to the Champions League right from the start, certainly more than Milan and Juventus who, despite everything, failed to qualify, they were certainly capable of doing it but in the end Como went for it.

I confirm Como has been a great team this season, but all we do is talk about Como, Inter who actually won the Championship do not seem to receive the same importance.
I don't like the attitude the Como boys are taking, they already feel like they've arrived and are great professionals, at least they give me that impression.

[Gallar]

That’s exactly what’s going to happen next season: Como have no European experience and find themselves catapulted into Europe’s top competition. Will they manage to make a good impression? Hmm, I don’t think so – I have my serious doubts!
The same fate befell Bologna two years ago, who didn’t even manage to make it into the top 24 to qualify for the play-offs/round of 16

It's true that Como haven't had any experience playing in the UCL or any other European competition. But underestimating them is clearly wrong. Como's current position isn't due to chance or luck. It's clearly because they've performed well and deserve to play in the UCL. Whether they compete well in that competition, I think,, is a matter of course. Just getting into the UCL is an extraordinary achievement.

As far as I know,, this is Como's first time in this major competition. Therefore,, this is a source of pride for them. Furthermore, if we talk about Como's current performance, I think they're doing quite well. So,, they just need to buy a few more high-quality players to complete their squad, and I'm confident Como will perform well in the UCL. Como's current performance is good,, perhaps only their defense needs improvement. And if that's fixed, Como will certainly perform even better.

It doesn't matter if they are unable to qualify from the group stage next season in UCL. The most important thing is that they tried something new and will have the experience to be better in future. I feel it's a big achievement for Como to be in the Champion League next season.

[kennycryptoitalia]

Yes, last season, AC Milan finished in 8th position, and this season they finished 5th on the table. It really shows that they performed better than last season based on where they ended.

In fact, there has been an improvement and in any case Milan will participate in a cup, i would say that it didn't go so bad.
Last year, being in eighth place was a huge humiliation in my opinion for a team like Milan. A very bad thing, like seeing the Italian national team not playing the World Cup for the third time.

Starting in UEFA Champions League next season will bring them money and every team including Como like that. Now after that, falling to the UEFA Europa League and playing there will be more interesting than continuing in Champions League with high odds of failure.
Talking about teams without a lot experience, we have Venezia that well return to Serbie A. There are Frosinone as well and most likely Monza again.

[changaa]

It was a well deserved one for Como to secure their spot in the next Champions League. It would have been disappointing to me if Como didn?t secure their spot in any European competition next season after this wonderful season under Fabregas. The manager deserves his credit for his performance this season, his ability has improved the team from scratch this season to playing in the Champions League next season. Nobody saw this coming at all.

However, two seasons ago, Fabregas was appointed as the manager when Como was struggling in 13th position in the second division. He brought them back to Serie A, and in the following two seasons they secured their place in the Champions League. In addition they need to strengthen their squad if they want to go far in the tournament next season, to avoid elimination in the group stage.

Como struggled, committed themselves, and deserved their place. It won't be easy to keep it next year. They'll have to compete with teams with more Champions League experience, but they're not afraid of anything. I like their character, sometimes even perhaps too boastful.
But with commitment and with Fabregas' help they achieved this result and I am sure they will not disappoint everyone who believed in it.

Let's see, first of all i have to say that this season i made some errors in evaluation. i thought Chivu wasn't good but instead he was exceptional. i said that Como would never reach the Champions League zone and they did. Maybe he can do it, I'm just saying it's very difficult.

[ITExpert]

AC Milan fired many important people. Here is a list of those who were fired because the team failed to qualify for the Champions League, according to what I could read:

1 - Massimiliano Allegri (coach)

2 - Giorgio Furlani (CEO)

3 - Igli Tare (Director)

4 - Geoffrey Moncada (Head of Scouting)

It seems that the Milan management continues to fail to see that the problem lies in the squad, which is very weak, and that they should be making good signings. Instead, they have made mistakes in recruitment. The coaches are good, but with this weak squad, not even the best coach would succeed. I highly doubt that Guardiola, whom I consider a great coach, would have succeeded at Milan with this current weak squad.

This is the very justified firing by the team because I think this should happen before than they are doing now. They still needs to underline all such factors which are responsible for the team's failure. Because its a very great failure for a team which is once considered for the title contender but they ended in the 5th place which means that they even not qualifying for the champions league next season. So, In this regard this decision very justified in fact they still consider all the things under consideration and make even more tough decision. The squad should be very talented and strong so that they can achieve their targeted position and it is needed. And I am.just hoping that new signings should also be happening to make the team capable and giving them strength to compete best.

so something was broken, something needed to be cut but not Massimiliano Allegri who had come to put the patches in place
in fact Milan finished in fifth place, I would say not a bad place, so I don't understand this stupid choice
it means that there have been few years of filth for Milan

Congratulations to Como, a truly incredible team, they deserved this qualification to the Champions League right from the start, certainly more than Milan and Juventus who, despite everything, failed to qualify, they were certainly capable of doing it but in the end Como went for it.

Getting into the champions league which meant a good finish was a really impressive one from Como this season and so they can literally see it that they had a fair achievement this season. Milan was one team that also did tried too but were not consistent enough as they suffered some set back at a time which later made them fall back and they could not recover from it soon enough before the season ended but Juventus is in no way deserving and as they could not get there it does not feel like they were not lucky because they did not put in enough effort for it actually.
