Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Not your key not your BTC]

Amorim doesn't feel like the correct choice to me, not sure why. United was bad I know, but Sporting was good, so we do not know which one he will be like. But for some reason I am siding a lot more with United period than Lisbon period and that is what I am assuming will happen.

There is this feeling where Ruben Amorim forces the players to play in a way that doesn't fit them and I am afraid that he may want to force that once again and get the worst of the players he has in his squad.

Perhaps, judging by Amorim’s performance at Man United, many people might doubt that Milan can perform well under his guidance. Amorim is indeed a stubborn coach who forces players to play according to the system he implements. He refuses to change his tactics even if the players aren’t suited to his tactical system. That’s why Man United struggled during his tenure as coach. But we don’t yet know what Milan’s prospects will be under Amorim. Besides, Serie A is quite similar to the Portuguese League, where the style of play isn’t as physical as in the English Premier League.

I think it's wrong to put players into a specific mold. The manager should bring out the talents of the players, whatever their abilities are. That's perhaps why the Portuguese manager wasn't successful with Manchester United. I want to believe he will be successful with Milan. For that, he needs to know his players well. He needs to pay close attention to these players and make transfers to fill the gaps in the team.

Como can't have the same economic power as other already established teams in the league as in the Champions League, but as a small team they have shown they have a big heart.
They have an important guide who knows what he are doing, if they could get to the quarter-finals already it would be a truly absurd achievement for them.
i are a realist i don't think they can reach the final with all the teams ranked in the Champions League.

I assure you that he has the money he says he has, he has spent a lot of it, much more than the most famous teams.
Okay, Cesc Fabregas is good, but without investments he would never have taken Nico Paz on loan and put together a team capable of supporting him.

[Zanab247]

Como doing fine this season is very unlikely, they are going to play more games than before and that is not going to be easy for them at all.

I understand this is not a "must" thing, they could still be fine, depends on what they spend this summer, if they spend a lot and get some great players and increase their depth then of course they will be fine, but most likely assumption is that they are not going to do that great, because let's face it it's a brand new team that has not done well before.

You are right that Como did well in this season, but I don't think their coach will be comfortable with those players without signing new players, because they are going to challenge some clubs they failed to beat in this season which is a big concern to their coach. Even their coach have requested for new players just that their president have not approve such to them , and their coach know that if he add more potential players to his players it will make them to beat inter Milan, AC Milan and other strong clubs in the Italian league tournament and other tournament too.

Many clubs are aware of Como improvement and it will make those clubs to prepare well before playing with Como next season and it will make Como not to display what they displayed this season, because some clubs are planning to buy some new players to boost their strength.

Such judgment to me seem flawed because there is always room for improvement and since he had gotten a break after he left Manchester united, i am supposing that he must have taken some time to examine his tactics, coaching style and other aspects of his job to see where needs improvement and work towards such. one thing i believe he will be very good at will be to get Milan in to a very solid form if given all the time that he will be needing as well as all that he may request that he will be needing to get the best results they want him to deliver.

I have a slightly different opinion on this matter. Because some, in fact most, managers don't change their tactics when it comes to managing the game. Many managers have certain tactics they generally use, and these don't change even after they're dismissed from their teams. I hope Amorim has understood his mistakes, as you said, but I think it's more likely he'll continue in his own style.

I still think that the problem is not the coach, maybe I'm wrong but I don't think so, let's say that I have a lot of experience in the world of football (I started young as an official referee) and I understand some dynamics
when you have a company made up of toxic managers, there is nothing you can do, you cannot create a healthy environment capable of working peacefully
If Milan doesn't kick out some toxic directors, they'll be in trouble again with Amorim too.

It's easier for them to focus on a single tournament, of course. Since they'll be going to the Champions League, there will be intense European matches. They'll also be facing tough physical challenges against much stronger teams. This will wear them down and could negatively impact their league performance. Therefore, they might not be in the same league standings next year, but this transfer window is crucial. If the president signs good players and strengthens the squad during this transfer period, they could finish the season better.

Certainly in today's football the transfer windows are very important, i would say strategic and crucial for the coming season.
It has now become a way to recruit fresh manpower, given that the matches, or rather the championships, are exhausting, and also to entice the fans who have to pay for season tickets.

I hope Amorim has understood his mistakes, as you said, but I think it's more likely he'll continue in his own style.

If Amorim understands his mistakes, he will not fail in Italy. Ac milan has not been spending much money  for the past few seasons. So even if they cannot dominate serie A, Milan management will not blame Amorim. But milan's performance needs to be changed positively. And the  performance needs  to be stabilized. If amorim can not do this either, he will be fired from Milan.

If Milan wants to win the Serie A title, then they must strengthen the squad. If they can not strengthen the squad, milan should not  hope to win the title. Especially , it is important for Milan to add talented players in the midfield and attack.

A new chapter begins for AC Milan. After finishing 5th in Serie A and confirming a place in the Europa League, they're preparing for a fresh start under a coach who is widely regarded as one of Europe's brightest tactical minds. Like many others, I'm also excited to see this new era under Amorim's management. But there's already a lot of negativity and criticism surrounding the appointment, but I feels too early for that. It's better to give him time and a fair chance before rushing to any random judgment.

Amorim needs to show his flexibility in the transition period then I think his position at Milan will be promising. From what I have seen Serie A especially awards coaches who can switch tactic mid match without positioning too much pressure to player

Scheduling in Italian league is another favorable side. Here players will have time to apply their modifications without any additional stress. Because there are sometimes fewer European matches at the beginning compared to England. Where United does not give him time Milan's fan base and infrastructure will give him that time. So you cannot force players to fit into your system but you have to sign right players in right places

Amorim really needed this break to sort out his high pressing system. Now he will have some time after United. This may actually suit the tactical and patient game plan of Serie A more. Because the Premier League style is very chaotic

And it should not be ignored that the positional discipline of several players in Milan's current squad is already quite good. Which can greatly reduce the problems he faced at Old Trafford

Now we just have to see who they sign in the wing and number 10 positions this summer. Because just having ideas is not enough, you also need the proper players to implement the ideas on the field. If Milan is to be a strong contender for the top-4, they will definitely have to bring in good players in these two positions and reduce the injuries caused by over pressing

I also think Como will suffer next season.
Last season he only had to play in Serie A now he has the Champions League which is a super tough competition where really strong teams play.
So to recap, i also think he won't be able to do as well as last year.

[Lannakosa]

If Milan wants to win the Serie A title, then they must strengthen the squad. If they can not strengthen the squad, milan should not  hope to win the title. Especially , it is important for Milan to add talented players in the midfield and attack.

I think Milan already have a very good squad because with their current team they were even near the top of the table for some time and had a chance to compete for the Scudetto. But they finished the season very poorly. It is unclear why, maybe the team had a drop in form, and if that is the case, then the coach is to blame if he did not prepare the players properly. Therefore, I believe Milan do not need too many changes. Maybe they only need a few good players in attack and midfield to significantly improve their game. And Amorim is a good coach, I hope he succeeds.

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.

Napoli has officially appointed Allegri as their coach for next season. I don’t know what Napoli’s plans are for next season. They fired Conte and then hired Allegri, who was also fired by Milan. What exactly does Napoli expect from Allegri, given how poorly he performed with Milan. I’m not sure Napoli will be able to compete for the title under Allegri. In fact, Napoli might end up facing a similar fate to what Milan experienced last season.

Napoli hasn't officially appointed Allegri as their coach, but they have reached an agreement, and we're just waiting for the official announcement.
From what I've read in the rumors, Napoli didn't fire Antonio Conte instead, Conte left Napoli on his own initiative. He appears to be interested in becoming the Italian national team coach, so you can't blame Napoli for hiring Allegri. Perhaps they see Allegri still has the potential to be a good coach, and Napoli wants to give him a try.

It has now become a way to recruit fresh manpower, given that the matches, or rather the championships, are exhausting, and also to entice the fans who have to pay for season tickets.

This is very true.  Some fans are actually fans of a player and not the team so automatically whichever team it is that the player is playing for, becomes  the team the fan supports. The transfer window is of advantage to both the team and the players because in a way both of them gets to benefit from the movement that happens in the transfer windows. Some players gets better pay after  they move from one team to the other and some team gets the opportunity to win a title after they must have gotten some set of new players.

It’s possible that Millan can actually perform well under the Amorim guidance, because we can’t say that since the Manchester United performance went very poorly under his guidance Millan will still be the thing. We all know that Amorim is a discipline coach he can do everything possible to make sure his team perform well, but I don’t know what is actually problem that their performances has not be doing well up to today; I’m sure that Millan will not suffer under guidance in as far as they will follow his instructions.

[martinom]

Girona from the Spanish league came to mind. We remember how good a season Girona had and how they qualified for the Champions League. Then, the following season, they were a huge disappointment. I hope we don't see something similar in Italy. Because Como was a team with potential last year, in my opinion. The team and the coach got great results from their young players, and thanks to that, they took the team to the Champions League in their second year, in a competitive and demanding league like Italy.

what i think it is necessary to say is that we are considering Como as a team that is weak compared to the average, but in reality it has shown that it can win and put pressure on even the big teams in the Italian championship, and i have the impression that when it challenges a team like Girona it could really win by a large margin.

[Ale88]

Como isn't a financially buoyant team like the other teams that are mentioned here hence they could have some limitations in terms of getting players into the team, but due to the fact that they would be playing in the champions league next season it might help lure some players into the team.
Wether they would perform well or not would be subject to the strength of squad they would have assembled before the season begins which is also dependent on how well they participate in the transfer market.

Yes, COMO has limits that cannot allow them to recruit players as freely as they want, but because they have just qualified for the Champions League, that means they get money that they can use to recruit better players compared to before. so this all comes back to COMO and Fabregas management on whether they are able to target effective players to be able to fill their squad, and seeing that they qualify for the Champions League, it means that they will have no more difficulty attracting players who want to compete at that level.

There are many players who want to play in the Champions League, and Como will give these players that opportunity. Therefore, they can acquire better players in their transfers to achieve success in both the Champions League and the Italian league. Last year, Como surprised many by qualifying for the Champions League in the final match. Hopefully, they will have another successful season next year.

Como are showing to all Europe one interesting thing: if you are a good, young player, you can come over here and you are going to play, take part to the Champions League, and increase your value and visibility. And on the weekends you can enjoy an aperitivo with lake view. It's a pretty sweet deal if you ask me. Nico Paz is the best example of this strategy.

[GiftedMAN]

It’s possible that Millan can actually perform well under the Amorim guidance, because we can’t say that since the Manchester United performance went very poorly under his guidance Millan will still be the thing. We all know that Amorim is a discipline coach he can do everything possible to make sure his team perform well, but I don’t know what is actually problem that their performances has not be doing well up to today; I’m sure that Millan will not suffer under guidance in as far as they will follow his instructions.

Amorim can succeed in AC Milan his performance in Manchester United can not stop him from doing well in another club but for him to succeed in Italy he needs to mind how he relate with his players and to ask the management to release money for them to sign more quality players to help them get back to their feet. The problem with Milan has been lack of consistency and not taking third chances in some games that they are supposed to win. If the management is ready to invest more money by signing quality players and the coach motivate his players we could see them challenging Napoli and Inter Milan for the trophy.
