Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Black Mbaye]

I, on the other hand, think that if Como manages to find some even stronger players to include in the team they will certainly be able to make the leap in quality with the other strongest teams in Europe, i believe that this is truly possible and i believe that the moment where they must take advantage is right now and they must do it immediately.

If Como is looking at a better season ahead,  then just like you have said, now is the best time for them to make the necessary moves they will need to strengthen the team and give  them the form to compete at their very best next season,  I will be glad to see them bring about some extraordinary competition in the Serie A next season,  where even Inter Milan and the likes of other top teams will have a strong rival competing for the title.

For Como, competing with teams like Inter, Milan, and Juventus, and having their name linked with these teams, is a huge morale boost, in my opinion. Because this year they secured a place in the Champions League in the final week, and they are hopeful for next year. Their coach trusts his players and is already making plans for next year. I'm sure they will accelerate transfers after the World Cup and will participate in the Champions League with the best possible options.

Como continues to churn out great stocks, nothing to say about that, they are very good at money management and planning
I also have to say that Cesc Fabregas' ability to anticipate and solve problems is really very high, I think he will have to build a team that is up to the task

[M47AK16]

They actually played very well and strongly in the end, which is why they have been in the top 5 and if their performance continues like this time, I think so too, but for that they will have to change a lot of players so that their struggle is better than before. Como and Roma are the better of the two, Como who had done a lot of good work and won their last matches. I don't believe in Juventus because they play well in the beginning and collect some points and when they need to win, they start playing poorly. All these teams will try but 3 of them will definitely go to the relegation zone and that will be their negligence, so everyone should play well and make efforts for the title. Como will play well this time and can fight for the title because they have the ability to win the title.

I am not entirely sure, Como feels like they are just a hyped team that is doing good now, but I do not see long term success for them at all, not that they won't have any, they may do fine, but with UCL coming up, I think they are going to be too tired and will not be top four this season in Serie A, they will do worse.

Roma on the other hand has Gasperini, a proven coach who makes his teams consistently good, and the way he improved Atalanta from basically nobody team to what they are today, shows that he can do even better with Roma.

I think the same about Como. Will they be able to build the depth of the team to compete in both Serie A and the Champions League? Of course, it requires financial capacity, whether they have that capacity or not is a matter of debate. If they cannot build that depth in the team, then I think they should focus on Serie A, not the Champions League. If they focus on both leagues, then they might fall behind in Ligue 1 and lose Champions League qualification next season. But they have a good chance now to improve themselves, but they must keep up this trend.

[Renampun]

Although Fabregas did a great job taking Como to a higher level, I still have my doubts about them next season. Even with a few new signings, I don't think it will make a huge difference in terms of competing across multiple competitions.

Teams like Como that experience a surprising rise often go through a noticeable drop in performance afterward. With a busier schedule and more matches to play, maintaining consistency and keeping the squad stable won't be easy.

That's what many people worry about, after their impressive performance, COMO will find it difficult to maintain their performance because of their busier schedule and also about new players who need time to integrate themselves into the team. So Fabregas must be able to handle this problem because this is their first time appearing in the Champions League, even though people don't expect that they can survive until the final rounds, at least their performance shouldn't fall once at the start of the round because that would be a shame.

[len01]

Has anyone here already heard the rumors that Napoli are interested in bringing in Allegri as their new coach? Or am I the one who's behind on the news regarding these rumors?

This would be really interesting and makes me wonder what Napoli actually want. Conte was dismissed despite having a strong track record and plenty of experience in serie A. Now they seem interested in hiring Allegri, hoping he can deliver quick improvements within a single season. I even believe that if Allegri really becomes Napoli's coach, he should also be prepared for the possibility of being sacked.

What I observe from como last season is that the club is building potential players against future but winning this Italian league trophy, I don't think it will be possible for Como, because Inter Milan, AC Milan and Juventus still have old players that know how to handle Como players not to see victory till the end of the game if they meet. I must confess that Como performance has improved but it doesn't mean they have the power to win this trophy, because am not seeing any reduce of performance from Inter Milan, and they have not announce anything like transfer or selling their players.

I know that they will still going to beat some clubs in the Italian league tournament, but winning the trophy, I don't think it will be possible for Como to achieve, because next season will going to be tougher than this season that is making people to praise their coach for good work.

[Velvet78]

Napoli and Allegri isn't a rumour by the way if there are people who know it like that. There is already a deal completed between the sides so he is their manager from now on.

I still can't believe how quick Milan can give up on their manager. How do they expect to achieve any success this way?

Do they really think Allegri was the source of the problem? I assume they don't want to accept that the owner is the real source.

[barbara44]

Milan will still be in Europa, so not like they are going to have time to rest, they are going to still be playing as many games as the teams that went to UCL, which means they do not have any added advantage at all, and will have some hard times and fatigue again.

The problem they had last season was a bad ending, the last 1 month was very terrible for them, a team that went second place for most of the season, finishing out of top four because of one month of losses, is proof that they need to figure out a way to rest the team carefully enough to do better job by the end. If they are not careful then they are going to end up with bad results, and that is why Milan should be looking to do better job with fitness.

Although Fabregas did a great job taking Como to a higher level, I still have my doubts about them next season. Even with a few new signings, I don't think it will make a huge difference in terms of competing across multiple competitions.

Your point of view seems perfect. There is no doubt that como has played incredibly  well this season. But they have only  performed in serie A. Next season, the team will play in serie A and the champions league. It is undoubtedly very difficult to perform well  on both platforms.

Also, Como's players do not have previous experience playing in a busy schedule. There is a possibility of injuries to many players in the coming season. So como's management will  definitely have to spend  money and strengthen the squad. Even then , there is no doubt that it will be very difficult for como to stay in the top  4 of the table again.

Some of them do, it is not their first ever team, they have played both league and UCL before based on their experience but you are right that most of them have not. COMO is also a young team relatively speaking, which allows them to be fresh without UCL, they were capable of playing at league and still be good at the end of the season because of their age, but now they are going to play 8+ more games at UCL which will be hard and they might get tired. That's two full months where you play 2 games per week, not back to back of course, but they will still have that spread to the season.

However,  Cesc Fabregas has shown that he's got all the coaching experience that's needed to push Como to have a better campaign than what we saw this season. If they can sign some players with quality, I think they can still be very competitive next season

Como was a team that deserved to be there in that position, this doesn't surprise me, these players are truly complete and i must say that in this case i wouldn't make any changes to this team that is playing so well, they have fun and play very united, I'm happy for them.

[martinom]

these teams are doing well because there have been some excellent investments, which have paid off, time has shown that these teams are moving forward thanks to their investments, the players have been incredible this season and the luck has been great, I'm happy that they have been able to demonstrate all this on the field.

definitely better than Juventus and Milan
Roma also deserves to be there, because they understood who to hire as coach, not by chance Giampaolo Gasperini, something that my team didn't understand, which they had to keep... in fact if you saw Atalanta disappeared from the radar
I just hope we can make it back next season

Roma are only missing the money that Milan and Juventus have, if I look at those two clubs, I see how much of their wealth they have put on the basket on mediocre, unmotivated players, whilst selling off promising youngsters from their youth academies. Then they complain that players like Yamal don’t develop in Italy, I’m not surprised if they are there, they will sell them as soon as they are offered a couple of dollars.

For Serie A, i want to believe Como will be able to build the capacity to compete at that level but that which i cannot tell will be for the champions league. They actually do not have the strong financial capacity to build certain form for the champions league but i still want to trust that they will be able to contended in the Serie A just like they did so well last season, they will should not be having too many challenge this new season since it is a place they have competed very well in last season.

I'm sorry, what do you mean by "it requires financial capacity, whether they have that capacity or not is a matter of debate"? Are you actually questioning Como's finances? Because, if so, I really suggest you to check who Como owners are and how much money they have.
Como currently has the wealthiest ownership in Italian football thanks to the Hartono brothers who are worth more than $50 billions.

Of course, it is a well-deserved position for Como.    Juventus and Milan failed really hard on the final weeks especially. The Europa League was really the tournament they deserved after a poor effort...

But on the other hand it is quite sad to see 2 top teams of the Serie A in this condition. I would like to see them back stronger. Juventus could be like that with Spalletti next time maybe. But I highly doubt Milan!

Change is inevitable bros @pewboy, who knew there were several big clubs who wanted Como players?

When that happens, Como will undoubtedly want to profit from the transfer. Regardless, I believe Como needs even better players since they'll be playing in the Champions League. The Champions League is Como's first since the club was founded, they should not waste this opportunity to perform well.

The fact that Como 1907 secured a place in the Uefa champions league amid clubs like Juventus, Milan who happen to be traditional Italian elite teams who always play in the champions league is a testament to that fact that they can also do better in the Europe, and by extension the seria A,

All they need to do is to strengthen their squad by making some important signings and prohibited some of the key players from leaving, that way they would be a blend of experience players and some ambitious players too who will help the team in next season's competitions.

The following Como players are rumored to be wanted by other teams.

Nico Paz, we know this player has been targeted by big teams like Inter, and even Madrid, Madrid may not be a threat anymore because they have said they will not activate the purchase clause, but Inter is different, maybe they will try to get him.

Other players: Marc Oliver, Vojvoda and Igance Van Der, the first two names are not a problem, because they are 31 years old, so Como must replace them immediately, Ignace is a little different, he is still young, still enough to be needed by Como, but indeed even if these players leave or not, Como still has to buy some players, because the UCL competition will be different, where having high quality players is needed.
