Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A)

[Xyloo]

I don't want to denigrate last year's Como in any way because they managed to obtain formidable results, managing to qualify for the Champions League, but this year's team is more inclined to sacrifice and the possibility of playing in two different tournaments at the same time, giving the players the opportunity to rest.

They definitely won't have time to rest in the new season. ) But seriously, I think it would be great for Como to finish in the top four again this season, earning a Champions League spot. If Fabricos manages to repeat this achievement, I'll consider it a significant improvement for Como, I think that's where they should focus most. They're unlikely to achieve anything in the Champions League, I'm not even sure they'll be able to get out of the group.

I think their main focus should be the Italian league, and I agree with that because if they qualify for the Champions League again, they will prove that their success in Italy wasn't a fluke and that they truly deserved it. They will already have enjoyable matches to play in the Champions League, and with the experience they gain there, if they become one of the Italian teams to qualify for the Champions League next year, I think they will be even more effective. This year they are trying to strengthen their squad and aim to at least reach the top 24 in the Champions League. However, even Napoli finished outside the top 24 last year. In terms of squad, I think Napoli is a better team than Como, and I think that example is enough to illustrate how difficult the Champions League is. Therefore, I think focusing on the Italian league is the right thing to do.

Como surprised everyone with their performance last season, and if they can start this season a little better prepared, I think everyone will be very impressed. It's very difficult to predict how far they can go in European matches; the quality of the players is not bad at all, but they may not be as good as expected.

Fabregas is a young player who inspires confidence in everyone. I think he will do whatever it takes to make this team even better

I believe that Fabregas wants to start as he finished, with a very offensive team that will immediately be ready not to lose points, will immediately be ready to attack and remain one of the most offensive teams of the season. And he will also demonstrate this in the Champions League.

I'm very curious to see how this new Como will play.

After their performance last year, I'm curious to see what Como can achieve. They had some very successful matches against big teams last year. From what I saw against Inter, they put up a very good fight. They didn't play like a small team against Inter, but like a strong, attacking team. And Inter won the Italian league last year. I think a team that put up such a good fight against the champions will continue its fight in the Champions League and in Italy this year as well. Cesc Fabregas built a fantastic team in a short time, and he's currently on his way to realizing his dreams with this team.

I think that the only way for Como to succeed is if they have a good squad depth and proper motivation, whatever the coach did last year to inspire his players he should keep doing it. Inasmuch as I want Como and Fabregas to succeed, it’s not going to be easy. I remember when Girona had a fantastic season and qualified for the champions league, they couldn’t replicate the form that saw them play Champions League football in the next season the cause was mostly because they sold their key players without proper replacements, now Como has an edge in that they’ve not sold any of their key players but they still need reinforcements to succeed this season.

The squad has indeed performed impressively by considering that their play has continued to improve since they entered Serie A. Their efforts have also resulted in some spectacular performances. And they secured a spot in the Champions League last season. I’m convinced this is all thanks to their solid squad and even the guidance provided by their renowned coach. I personally think that Cesc Fabregas as similar to Xabi Alonso who led Bayer Leverkusen to extraordinary success under his leadership. And I’m confident that Cesc Fabregas will continue to provide excellent guidance to ensure the Como squad delivers strong performances on many occasions. Next Como will face Udinese in Round 1 of Serie A, where the match set to take place this month. And I’m confident they’ll give their best performance again by dominating the match. In their last three head-to-head meeting Como proved that they're difficult for Udinese to beat.

I don’t think Juventus will let J. David go.
Last season they signed him as the solution to their attacking problems, and I’m convinced they still hold that view.
In reality, however, the player hasn’t really lived up to his potential – could he do so this year? Perhaps, because by now he should have settled in. It won’t be easy to sell him either, unless there are buyers willing to take him on.

Only time will tell. One thing is for sure, though. With Kolo Muani at the club now, it doesn't look like David will be a starter. And if they bring in a similar attacker like David, his playing time will be greatly limited. Jonathan is a great opportunity to score some valuable capital gains points. He came to Juventus last season on a free transfer and if a good offer were to arrive, I think they would sell him. As you said, he hasn't live up to the hype.

Juventus has a lot of strikers and lately in the last couple of seasons they have been getting them a lot. All these strikers didnt do much,the only guy who did something was Vlahovic and even he didnt score much. If they could sell David they will probobly do it. Juventus is currently missing a striker that can score a lot of goals,because currently from what they are having is not enough and they arent good enough at all.

Honestly, I don't know how many Juventus forwards you're talking about. The only forward they had who was more or less capable was Vlahovic, and even he wasn't that good, which is why they're trying to sell him, and I can't even remember the rest of the forwards. Spalletti said Juventus lacks good forwards, but in reality, their midfield is weak too.

[banana33]

I think we can all agree that Nico Paz is one of the most talented young players but to see his full abilities, we have to wait for his action in the Champions League I mean his performance in Serie A can't be used as a reference. For example, in the last World Cup, he only played 2 times, this is a sign that he has not been fully trusted. Next season is the right time for Nico Paz to prove anything, if he can be consistent in all competitions then he deserves the spotlight especially as a young player. By the way, I noticed since joining Como Nico Paz market value increased from 15 Million to 80 Million, it's a positive trend.

Yes, Nico Paz had a great season and will be able to improve further, especially by gaining experience in the Champions League. Nico Paz is still young and has time to demonstrate his full potential. He must be consistent and have another good season together with Como. His price tag has increased a lot, i think it is also thanks to Fabregas who has given him confidence and encourages him to improve.

Sometimes Vlahovic was good too, you said that well. Now Kolo Muani has come back again and we'll see if he can do something once more... I remember when Juventus had Mandzukic, Tevez, Vucinic, and many other great strikers. Now, changes are necessary and Juventus needs to get back to its old ways.

[Shadiq]

He must be consistent and have another good season together with Como. His price tag has increased a lot, i think it is also thanks to Fabregas who has given him confidence and encourages him to improve.

If this player can prove his talent in the Champions League next season and keep his team in a good position in the Italian league, then his value will increase and big clubs will continue to show interest in him. He has already proven his talent, but he must be able to maintain his talent consistently. Now he must prove this consistency. If the opposite happens, his team Como does very badly in the Champions League and also deteriorates in the Italian league and his performance decreases, then like other young players he may be forgotten and his value will continue to decrease. He must show his ability in the coming season.

Vlahovic is a different matter altogether; he’s now at loggerheads with the board, and the board would be only too happy to sell him or let him leave because his wages are sky-high and he’s not delivering as much as the board had hoped!
Of course, with Kolo Muani’s arrival, someone has to make way

I don't think Vlahović was ever a contender for the title of Juventus' top scorer. He's not ambitious enough and perhaps not talented enough. It's true that Juventus has been trying to sell him for several seasons now, but I think they're to blame for paying too much for him and are now forced to set his market price too high. And since his play is so mediocre, no one will buy him for that price. It's a vicious circle from which Juventus could find a way out if they wanted to, by lowering Vlahovic's market price a bit.

[cande86]

Nico Paz made the right decision to stay at Como and not return to Real Madrid. Real Madrid is a club that does not value their academy players, they don’t give them enough chances to prove themselves to the club. Nico Paz was among the best players in Serie A last season. He will have a lot of playing time in the Champions League, unlike Real Madrid, where he will stay on the bench for the rest of the season.

Fabregas did a great job in getting Como to qualify for the Champions League, it will be a great experience for him and also for his boys, certainly complicated because they have never played this important competition, but they will gain experience. Next season we will see if they will confirm themselves again, it is difficult but not impossible, Milan and Juventus will certainly come back strong and will necessarily want to qualify for the Champions League, they cannot stay away from the Champions League. Nico Paz will have more experience at Como because he will always be a starter, if he stayed at Real Madrid he wouldn't have had much chance of always playing as a starter.

Juventus is a club that we use to know in dominating the Italian football, but now juventus have to struggle to even get a champions league football.

If Juventus hadn't been caught up in various scandals and the management had managed the club's finances more wisely instead of taking on the huge wage burden that came with signing Ronaldo, the club might still have been competing for major trophies today.

After the latest scandal, Juventus has had to rebuild from the ground up.

I also sometimes think of the old Juventus, the team that used to dominate the Italian league regularly, but now doesn't get a chance in the Champions League. It's really annoying to see such a top team struggling to survive due to scandals.

 Another club in the Italian league, AC Milan, who were very well known in the Champions League and were one of the best contenders to win the title, are also not seen regularly in the Champions League now. Corruption and scandals are very dangerous, they can easily ruin even the best team. Now it's a matter of how quickly they can make a comeback!

There is really only one main problem:
Vlahović was vastly overrated when Juventus bought him, and unfortunately, they are paying a heavy price for that mistake.
The young man certainly has talent, but he isn't worth the fee Juventus paid, nor is he worth the massive salary he receives every month. Now, they are forced to lose him on a free transfer.

Only time will tell. One thing is for sure, though. With Kolo Muani at the club now, it doesn't look like David will be a starter. And if they bring in a similar attacker like David, his playing time will be greatly limited. Jonathan is a great opportunity to score some valuable capital gains points. He came to Juventus last season on a free transfer and if a good offer were to arrive, I think they would sell him. As you said, he hasn't live up to the hype.

Looking at the stats of both strikers last season, they really didn't score much goals, they seem to be at the same level according to stats. Jonathan David didn't perform as expected for Juventus, and I will suggest they sell him  and bring in a proper striker. Juventus lacks a decent striker, although Vlahaovic is there, but he is not very fit, he suffered injury last season which is making him decline.

There are rumours that Juventus wants Alexander Sorloth, I think he will be the solution to this problem.

[Pmalek]

Juventus has a lot of strikers and lately in the last couple of seasons they have been getting them a lot. All these strikers didnt do much,the only guy who did something was Vlahovic and even he didnt score much. If they could sell David they will probobly do it. Juventus is currently missing a striker that can score a lot of goals,because currently from what they are having is not enough and they arent good enough at all.

The last great attacker Juventus had, in my opinion, was Carlos Tevez. He was at the club only for two seasons but he was excellent. Mandžukić wasn't of his caliber in terms of scoring goals but he was loved by everyone and had a never-give-up attitude that we are missing now. Not without reason did the tifosi make the biggest banner/flag of him that was ever present at the stadium. It said "guerriero". He was a warrior.

Cristiano is one of the biggest names in football ever, but he is a big egomaniac. He didn't bring the success and results that he was bought to do. I still remember the many awful freekicks he wasted at a time when Juventus had Dybala and Pjanić in their team who should have taken them instead. Just awful.

Vlahović was unlucky last season and had a long-term injury. He showed his qualities when he returned. His self-evaluation is too high. That's why he is still without a club in August. I don't believe he will find a club that will offer him anything close to what he earned at Juventus last year. He gambled and it seems that he lost.

Vlahovic is a different matter altogether; he’s now at loggerheads with the board, and the board would be only too happy to sell him or let him leave because his wages are sky-high and he’s not delivering as much as the board had hoped!

His contract has already expired in June. Dušan is no longer a Juventus player. He is a free agent but without a club. He can sign for anyone he wants.

[giammangiato]

After their performance last year, I'm curious to see what Como can achieve. They had some very successful matches against big teams last year. From what I saw against Inter, they put up a very good fight. They didn't play like a small team against Inter, but like a strong, attacking team. And Inter won the Italian league last year. I think a team that put up such a good fight against the champions will continue its fight in the Champions League and in Italy this year as well. Cesc Fabregas built a fantastic team in a short time, and he's currently on his way to realizing his dreams with this team.

I'm confident about Como, personally it was the team that excited me the most all last season.
Some games I followed like a true fan, seeing a "small" team compete with the big teams and in some cases even put them in serious difficulty was the most fun part.

[m4r1o]

Nico Paz, in my opinion, is one of the most improved Argentinian players in recent years. He was actually performing well at Real Madrid, but he didn't want to be a reserve in a squad with so many high-quality players. He had a fantastic year with Como last year, and I would like to see him play similarly this year. He also has the chance to prove himself in the Champions League this year. If they play against Real Madrid, I'm sure he'll want to be one of Como's best players on the field. I would like to see a Como-Real Madrid match-up.

Real Madrid have a rare gem and they know it very well. This is why he continues to let him play, but keeping an eye on him. Letting him play at Como gives him the chance to best express his qualities, his game and bring out all his potential, something he knows he can't do yet at Real Madrid. He will certainly have another year worthy of performances at his height, after which he could really head towards the Spanish capital as an immovable starter.
