Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Adbitco]

Juventus official page posted this Ronaldo image about 6 hours ago on Facebook, and I was like did Ronaldo move from Juventus down to Al Nassr? I had to pinch myself, no he left Juventus to Manchester United, that was his second return and it was from there he moved to Al Nassr. It's been years now since Ronaldo left Juventus and they are posting about him, could it be that they are missing him? Or they want to remind us that the GOAT once played for them!

Italian league is "easy" when it comes to being bad, because when all teams are so close to each other, one mistake and you are done. Milan and Juventus did great and yet on the last minutes they lost their UCL games, you do not see it often.

I mean think about it this way, even if you think of all the leagues, losing the UCL entry position with one game, the very last game, is not really that hard to handle this because if you can do it very well then you could do a lot better. There aren't really anything we are seeing with ANY league that has, not only a very last game decide the UCL, but ALSO two teams doing that which is insane and there isn't really anything like that in any league anywhere at all that's really near impossible.

It's hard to agree with you because I don't see what Juventus and Milan did great. Is 60% and 61% of points scored good? I could agree if this was the level of competition in the Premier League, but here Milan and Juventus lost to Como and Roma. In the Bundesliga, the fate of the Champions League tickets was also decided in the last round, I don’t see anything special here. If you think about it the other way around, then 2nd place is also just a few points away, you can be bad but still take 2nd place (which is what Napoli did).

In fact, calling it luck is an insult in my opinion for them, they have tried hard and even a lot, only with luck in sport do you not get results.
He may not be able to retain players, but he will still have to buy more to replace them, right?
They can go and improve and not get worse, they have all the prerequisites to make

It’s not an insult because, if Milan didn’t lose their game, Como would not make it to the Champions League spot, and nothing will change that. So, sometimes it’s not all about effort, if luck is not on their side, they will not make it to the Champions League spot.

And talking about them buying new players, I’m not disputing the fact, but sometimes the new players will not be able to deliver what the previous ones did because they may not be able to buy bigger players. To me, I can still see hope in them if Fabregas is still with them, they might be able to do better. All my concern for them is that they shouldn’t end up like Girona.

[changaa]

Como's main goal next year will be to finish in the top 24 of the Champions League after eight matches. Even qualifying for the Champions League was a great achievement in my opinion. Como and Fabregas should now make big transfers during the summer. Because they will be going to the Champions League next year. Meanwhile, favorites for the Europa League are already emerging. English teams won't be able to win easily anymore because Juventus and Milan will be in the Europa League next year.

They certainly won't play to finish in the top 24. If they play with the grit and character of this season, they'll play to win, but then they won't be able to reach the finish line. It might be a normal thing. This is a different story, but they play to win without fear of even the big teams. This distinguishes them and what has made the difference in their growth.

One moment that reminds me of Ronaldo at Juventus is when he brought Juventus comeback against Atletico, until now I still see replays of that match quite often . Maybe Juventus also felt his longing for the figure of this player, so they posted a picture of him even though he was no longer a player of the old lady. currently there are no forwards at Juventus who can be relied on like CR7 or one player who is quite better is Mandzukic.

The Juventus admin posting Ronaldo does send a message to the public about how Great Ronaldo is and how his legacy will keep living till the very last days. What he has done, clearly no footballer can possibly think of dominating European football like Ronaldo. He's a demi-god in football and have achieve huge trophies and accolades in football in general.

Who's not going to proud that one of the greatest player of all time played for their club? Juventus was a formidable team, oh yes I used the term 'was' because they're not just that team anymore, alot of things have change and we've seen Juventus suffering back to back defeats and been unable to win win the Seria A despite been long term champion. What's happening to the Old Lady's because this is not the Juventus I grew up watching. I really wish they could bounce back to the epic form they used to be and going back to winning titles.

English teams won't be able to win easily anymore because Juventus and Milan will be in the Europa League next year.

With Como qualifying for the Champions League next season, I believe they will sign more quality players to strengthen the squad even more. With the performances that Fabregas has shown at the club, I don’t think the Como management will deny him the opportunity to buy more players. Some good players will also be ready to play for Como now that they have qualified for the Champions League.With the performances that Fabregas has shown at Como, I have confidence that the team will do well to a certain level in the competition.

Juventus and AC Milan qualifying for the Europa League competition can stop Premier League teams from winning the Europa League title because they are good teams that qualified for the competition. However, if Juventus and AC Milan were good enough, they would have qualified for the Champions League, not the Europa League. In fact, I did not see anything especially impressive in the way Juventus and AC Milan played. With their current performances, I still see Premier League teams as the favourites to win the Europa League.But let not judge too quickly, as it is still early before next season begins

News outlets are reporting that Napoli have appointed Allegri as their new head coach. It’s quite a strange appointment, considering the Neapolitan club is traditionally associated with attacking, entertaining football, whereas Allegri's tactics at Milan were far from attacking. This has triggered a wave of outrage among Napoli fans, with petitions against Allegri's appointment already popping up online. Despite this, the former Milan manager has accepted the Neapolitan club's offer and will sign his contract shortly. The deal is done.

I'm really happy for Allegri. For me, he's a very good coach. He can do great things with Napoli. Personally, I'd say things need to change a bit in Italy, they need to give it a new edge because the way their football is going is very conservative. That has to change. I think Allegri will have to silence a lot of critics. For me, he's a great coach. The fans should have a little more faith in him and not attack him when he hasn't even started.

I agree finishing at top 24 alone cannot be the goal, even when they know  the title is something they may not be able  to achieve, they will still want to attempt it because  for them, there is always a room to try and actually  if they go beyond  that stage, the opportunity to go further is there for them. I would love to believe they will exceed our imaginations just like they did this season in their domestic league.

There is a possibility that Juventus really miss that player and posted the photo as a way of congratulating Ronaldo for successfully bringing Al Nassr to the top of the standings at the end of this season. So maybe Juventus also want to show that Ronaldo was one of the best players ever to play for the club, someone who was able to give his best contribution and help the team win trophies.

That seems quite logical to me because it is also impossible for Ronaldo to return to the Juventus team, and I also think that Ronaldo's role is very big in helping Juventus, and it seems they have not gotten that from other players.
And now it is proven how difficult it is for Juventus to build a team, even just to be able to finish in the top 4 they struggle, let alone for the title race, and that has happened when Ronaldo left the Juventus team, so it is very natural if that longing exists.

When Como was consistent winning matches and making headlines this season, I tipped them to finish in the top four. This season, they almost miss the chance to qualify for next season Champions League, but in the last matchday AC Milan gave Como a chance to finish in the top four and book a spot in next season Champions League, Como didn't waste the chance; they seized the chance with a 4-1 win against Cremonese, congratulations to Como for defiling the odds and booked a place in next season Champions League.

Como has been playing really well this season, and they truly deserve their current position. So I hope Como doesn't sell their current players, because if Como sells their current players, it's clear that Como will be powerless in the coming season. Because basically, there are quite a few teams that previously had good performance, but then because their players were offered at high prices by other teams, they ended up letting them go. So I hope Como isn't like that now. Because currently Como is really a very promising team in Serie A.

Even if they can continue to play well next season, I think they will also be able to talk a lot in the UCL. So that's why I hope the Como management team and also the players must continue to unite their chemistry next season, so that Como can perform even better and not close the possibility of becoming champions. Because basically, Como's performance this season is really very good, even when facing Inter Como really performed very well. Therefore, it is not impossible that Como will be a candidate for the Serie A title next season.

People are doubting their strength because they see them an inexperience team playing with big clubs that are consistent in the Champions League. I believe that they will do their best even though, it wouldn't take them that far. Don't be surprised that they might qualify to the knockout stage. Fabregas should be more focused on Serial A next season than UCL.

If Como can keep up their transfer spending at the same level as in recent years, consolidate their style of play and manage to hold on to Cesc Fàbregas, then we have to admit they will be title contenders. Not least because Juventus will have their usual just-good-enough season, Milan will sack their manager shortly after Christmas, and Napoli won’t win because Allegri is there. So the Scudetto battle will be between Inter, Roma and Como.

Juventus always wants to have the best team both in Italy and abroad, in fact with the purchase of Ronaldo, everyone thought it was a good year to win the Champions League and instead they didn't succeed, this tells me one thing, you don't always win with the best, however the fact remains that Cristiano is one of the strongest players of every era.

Contender for the Scudetto title, it could even if at the moment my Inter is too strong even for a possible new contender.
Como played well, but next year I don't think they can challenge Inter for the title, honestly.

I'm telling you this as a person who knows the facts.
Como, owned by Suarto and linked to the Hartono brothers (now brother, one is dead) have money to throw away
they are investing exactly in a business that revolves around Como as a city and therefore Como as a team
Let's say I don't agree with their plan, but it makes logical sense

[jaberwock]

I would say when some super rich owner end up buying bunch of great players to get the team better, it is not really that much of a fun thing for me to watch. I understand that they are not buying up 200 million euro players, sure that's not the case, but they are already paying as much as the top teams and they are just doing this great based on their rich owner and nothing more.

As long as they keep spending more and more, eventually they will not end up with just fourth place but they are going to end up with first place as well. So it is not a shocker that they did alright here.

This is the truth. Lets put it in comparison, in the last 5 years Como has spent 223 million euro net, that is between players they sold and bought, so net spending, and they got 223 million euro. The only teams that spent more than them in the last 5 years are Milan with 283 million which is a huge disappointment and humiliation for them to not get any good results, and Juventus who got 256 million which is also the same was Milan.

No team in the league spent more than these three, so Como is the third highest spender in the league. These teams spent more than Inter, in fact Inter is in profit if you look at the past 5 years, they have 70 million profits while being champions multiple times in the same period.

Ronaldo's contribution to Juventus was immense during his time there and such a statement is a natural way to honor a player who has contributed to the club. The post has no intention of anything else, especially regarding his move there, as his contact with Al Nassr is still available. It's more of a tribute to him for helping Al Nassr achieve the championship. Before Ronaldo's arrival, the club had struggled to achieve a championship and now Ronaldo is making the fans' dreams come true, although we can't ignore the other players who have contributed to the club's success.

[Renampun]

it's right that fabregas had the chance to play in the champions league and that he does it with the team that brought him to that level, he deserves it and he should enjoy it to the end, I'm happy that he succeeded, he will definitely have to play even tougher matches but they can do it, they certainly did well with strong teams.

Serie A is different from the Champions League, even though he has played against strong Serie A teams, but still with the squad they have now it is still not enough if they want to compete further in the Champions League. so I think that Fabregas will refine this squad again and improve the areas that they are still lacking, so it is possible that we will see new names in COMO next season since they will play in the Champions League and I think that there will be more players who are interested in playing with them. so this will be a new experience for Fabregas because after this he will be faced with matches that may be much more challenging.
