the last movements, nothing sensational at the moment

On the other hand, I am noticing, looking at an excerpt all together that you made (thanks for this, it is really useful in my opinion and made me notice this thing) that teams now dont buy, but borrow

well, there have already been two games in which Roma were under the command of the new coach and Roma won in those 2 games, the games were against weak teams, but still getting 2 victories in the first 2 games as coach, hi a good achievement for debut of the new coach, but looking at the objective of the Roma management, which seems to me to be the classification of Roma in the European Champions League, so I see a very difficult mission for the new coach, Roma has more games compared to the others teams, that's why they are in position 5 and when the other teams play, then Roma will fall in position. It will definitely be difficult for Roma to finish in 3rd or 4th place. mainly because they have napoli, atalanta, lazio as rivals

And unfortunately for Roma, they are still going to play Inter on February 10th, I honestly see Roma losing points when they play against Inter, and talking about Inter, in 4 days Inter will play against Juventus, this it will be a game in which if juventus wants to fight for the title they will need to win, something that in my opinion at most juventus would get a draw, I see inter winning this game and if inter actually leaves the game against juventus with victory, then the inter will already be on the right path to becoming champion. My question if Juventus doesn't become champion this season will be: what does Juventus management have as their goals?

[LUCKMCFLY]

Well, Inter has for now one point of advantage, it Cannot be trusted because when things are with teams like this, Juve has everything to keep pace with Inter and thus Juve can do many things, personally they can always do Things to that this Team can give its best, Juve is clear about it, they will not give up any more, even if they are that they Cannot play any game, I think they will leave everything, because they want to take over the first place, and it is also the golden opportunity they have We are all waiting to see how the games that are coming up can develop, but the one we are most looking forward to is Juve vs Inter, it is the game that I think all of us Italians and the fans would like to see happen, that's how it is. You will Realize that the one who has the highest level, the rivalry is there, the fans are waiting, that's just it, in this order of ideas things can happen very well, I don't know, but I think that when it comes to putting on a good Show , this is the one. better.

Those of Juve have everything to win, above all they already have the strategies so that they can play against Inzhagui's team, this coach is very good, I remember when he Played that it was a poem , now , with the leadership of this player because the things can be done Very well and ready for them to play a great game, then every time Juve plays, we will have all the attention on them, Juve for me is a team that is giving everything Away, they have their only Championship , they don't have right now they don't have another championship for now, and that's what I don't like , that's why I see this team as one of the best in the world, Inter will show that they are the leader and I'm very sure that they will put that game on They have a lot of Strength and a lot of strategy, I'm sure that Inter will not stop attacking even though they are a very defensive team , I don't know how Juve will do it, both of them for me are titans.

Juventus transfers: Why Alcaraz could land in Italy later than expected

Carlos Alcaraz will join Juventus on an initial loan deal from Southampton, but he may land in Italy after the end of the winter transfer window to sort out his visa.

Southampton midfielder Alcaraz is on the verge of joining Juventus from Southampton as the two clubs have shaken hands on an initial loan transfer with an option to buy. The value of the transfer package is around €53m.

However, it is still uncertain that the 21-year-old will be in Turin before the end of the winter transfer window.

Sky Sport Italia’s correspondent in Turin, Giovanni Guardalà, has just said that Alcaraz won’t land in Italy before sorting out his visa. This means he could land in the Peninsula on Thursday or Friday, after signing his contract with the Bianconeri.

It allows you to save money and do some testing, interesting

Loan option has many advantages and also has different goals, and many teams even carry out loans for quite long periods.
Indeed, borrowing will be able to save money because there is no need to pay more for purchases and of course the loan will be able to be used as temporary replacement player if the main player suffers long-term injury or there is player vacancy because the contract expires.
Apart from that, borrowing can also be aimed at testing players to see whether they can make big contribution or not considering the purchase price is quite high and if they can't make big contribution then this is clearly detrimental thing.
But usually loans will only be made to players who are not that great because great players will always be retained by the team that owns them and will only be given if the sale and purchase agreement has really been agreed.
Even so, there is still risk that will occur, such as loan player getting injured and here the team that actually has him will suffer loss, especially if the injury is fatal.

Milan were quite weak at defending against Bologna honestly. They gave Bologna attackers big spaces to score goals. Milan aren't good at defending in general of the season though considering the number of goals they have conceded until this moment.    Two penalties missed by Giroud and Theo also... I think Milan didn't deserve a win already after this effort.

Have you seen Theo's penalty? His goal didn't count because of touching the ball himself instead of someone else after the ball came back from the post. I think it is a really meaningless rule, what do you think?  

Milan doesn't convince me as a team, and I wonder every day how they manage to stay in third place.
I don't consider Pioli a good coach, for many reasons, but these are my opinions, which doesn't mean they are right or true.
Now Milan is aiming for the Champions League zone, you can see it

i see, this (penality) happen, human error

AC Milan performances so far has been very questionable and lacks consistency, which is why they continues to lag behind Inter and Juventus in terms of points and consistency. However, AC Milan was able to staying in third placed for quite a longs time and I think AC Milan might end this seasons in third position but at least still has the opportunity to secure a ticket to the UCL next seasons.
AC Milan coaching cannot be said to be good because I heard the news that AC Milan will replaced the coachs at the end of this season with Antonio Conte and it seems that this have reached a definite agreement

exactly, the reason for the loan is multiple and gives advantages to everyone
the lending team gives the player experience without selling him and without making him play in crucial matches
the team that takes him has talent for little money
Let's say it's a win-win for everyone

By the way we have a really important match ahead like Inter - Juventus.    This could be the most critical match for the championship race at the same time. Because Inter gained a really good advantage over Juventus after last week matches. They have a potential opportunity in hand to make the gap 7 points with Juventus.

If this happens you know what would probably come after that.    Inter wouldn't lose such advantage for the title while playing this good. Coming back to the match, Juventus have a really strong defense which could give them a chance to get at least 1 point. Still it won't really be easy to stop Lautaro Martinez and Hakan Çalhanoğlu considering how productive they are.

In my opinion Inter will win the match by a one-goal difference at worst. What do you think?

Yes, I agree with you, AC Milan are not consistent despite having very strong players. One good thing that AC Milan did was not to change the coach in the running, now finishing the season in third place seems possible. Next season we will see, very right.
Antonio Conte is good coach.

Oh, this match is definitely a nice one. 

Indeed it is affecting the title race directly. I see it like if Inter win they are the champions of the 2023/24 Serie A season. 

Lautaro Martinez is a goal machine now as you can see below too. He is just raising the bar every season by being more and more productive. Hakan Çalhanoğlu is being criticized at his national team a lot but he isn't playing in the same role there. Here we can see how great he is. Juventus had better score first otherwise I don't think they can steal any point.

Exactly, others have explained the reasons and they are all valid
for example, Romero Lukaku is also on loan for a year at Roma
its not a bad thing, Roma with little money has a great champion who has proven to be worth the money spent
otherwise he would never have been able to afford the expense

true, he scored 19 goals and doesn't seem tired at all, he's still hungry for goals
he was well ahead of the second scorer in the Italian series
let's say he's doing what Victor Osimhen did last year, I'm very unhappy for him

Yes, this match is very crucial and is a big match that is worth watching because it is certainly full of tension because you see the two strongest clubs in the series competing for the top position in the standings. Inter Milan has been very productive so far and is still on a very good winning trend. They are superior in terms of productivity to Juventus and if Inter Milan is able to win this match then the point difference with Juventus will widen.

If this happens, it could be said that Inter Milan can win the league title this season because the point difference with Juventus is widening, but Juventus still has a chance if Juventus is able to appear consistent and Inter Milan slipping from the top position so that Juventus can take advantage of this situation. Juventus is strong in terms of defense but their productivity is very lacking and I don't think Juventus can stop the attacks carried out by Inter Milan players Martinez and Calhanoglu, the aggressive Inter Milan striker, but don't forget Dusan Vlahovic is also a Juventus striker who should be relied on in this match.

In my opinion, this match will end in a draw like before because if you look at the defense, both clubs are equally strong.

What you say is correct but it seems like this only applies to young players who don't have much experience but if what are talking about is players who are older like Romelu Lukaku then clearly this is not about gaining additional experience and avoiding crucial matches.
The loan was made because he couldn't make big contribution to the main team and he was loaned out with the aim of being able to make some money to be able to take on other players.
Purpose and also the advantages and disadvantages of the player loan option will always be there and clearly this can never be said to be mutual benefit or win-win solution.

Let look at team from other leagues such as the English League, namely Chelsea, they have a lot of young players and quite a lot of them are on loan but in reality there is no profit from this loan.
What happened was that Chelsea was short of or experiencing player crisis and of course this was quite detrimental.

The losses that will really be felt are when players suffer injuries and it is not impossible that there will be financial and time losses that will affect the performance of the football team.

In my opinion it is crucial especially for Juventus who cannot afford to lose, lets look at the scenarios. At the moment we can say that Juventus are at -4

- If he loses he goes to -7
- If it draws, it remains unchanged
- If he wins he goes to -1

Everything is fine, except for a defeat, which would mean goodbye to the championship

I think it will be a very hard-fought match, Juventus must not and cannot lose, while if Inter Milan manages to win it takes away this sense of breathing down our necks, so they can then concentrate better on the Champions Cup, in short a truly powerful clash.
I will see this game!

Yes, in my opinion it will be really fun to watch, a match at very high levels with two strong teams facing each other and neither of them wants to lose
in my opinion a match like this is simply like a cup final
and I am not joking, is really a game like a cup final!

Well this is something that we should not see as if it were something bad for Juve, it cannot be denied that Inger played better, but a draw would have been very quick, in truth Juve deserves the golden medal, with Inter having a good advantage, he denies us here that the football games win is whoever scores the goals, not who deserves to win, this is something that we must see with all the clarity possible, for me Inter is a complete team, it has everything to be champion, If Juve is the team that I want to win this season of Serie A, then I think they have to leave everything in the right place and also look for their good luck, Inter was lucky, and had the clarity to do things well There is no other way, that is manifested in his way of doing things, I am very emphatic about this, because I see things from a more technical point of view, Pipo Inzaghi is a great coach, in fact even Ami is one of the best players they have at Inter, on the other hand I still want things to go well for Juve, just so they can teach a lesson to UEFA and Serie A that like to make teams like these they remain in the race, and cannot prosper.

Now this is something that we must see, most of the things in football are very dependent on luck, Juve for me did very well, there are no debts from that, just because they are lacking , there are still things that are not They are lost, because basically Inter can fail too, and in soccer things are not written and have to happen as we say, things may turn out in favor later for Juve , they just have to increase their level, they are not doing badly, but sometimes the lack of competition at other levels is necessary so that they can practice with teams with a different rhythm of football and thus have more experience, and their physical level is different.

A Federico Gatti own goal gave Inter the lead against Juventus at minute 37 in the derby d’Italia at San Siro.

Inter lead Juventus 1-0 at the break thanks to a Gatti own goal, his second this season.

Nicolò Barella put a cross in, Benjamin Pavard slightly hit the ball with a volley inside the box, and Gatti put it inside his own net, trying to get on the ball before Marcus Thuram.

Are the rumors about Mourinho have already a deal with Napoli real ? I found this hard to believe because first of all Napoli and As.Roma fans really don't like each other and Mourinho will forever be an enemy of As.Roma no matter what he did for the club. That's why , I do hope he will find another team and he won't accept Napoli offer.

Also , this rumors are just from twitter and social media in general so for now I won't bother to actually believe them.

Napoli is actually on the hunt for a quality coach. since Luciano Spalleti left, Napoli's performance has dropped dramatically. his replacement, Rudi Garcia, was fired halfway through because of poor performance in half of the Italian league competition. His replacement, Rudi Garcia, is still the same.
But if mourinho may not be suitable. because in training mourinho can not instantly give achievements but a long process if not an elite team and not a rich team.

it was very likely that Inter would win, but the consolation is that Juventus were the only ones to score in the match
of course he missed the goal, but he scored a goal!
sorry fellow Juventus fans, I couldn't resist making this joke
forgive me haha

[Slow death]

yesterday we had 4 games:

Turin 0 - 0 Salernitana

This was a game in which on paper Torino was the favorite to win the game, and in the last 4 games Torino had only one defeat, they had 2 wins, 1 defeat and 1 draw. In the last few games Torino has been a team with good defense, they played against teams like Napoli and didn't concede a goal, they haven't conceded more than 1 goal in the last few games. while their opponent, in the last 4 games they had no victory, so Torino's favoritism in that game was clear, but on the field things were different. Torino failed to score a goal and did not concede a goal. As a result, the game ended in a draw. This is a result that leaves Salenitana a little relieved, But the Salernitana situation continues to be very serious. It is almost certain that they will be relegated this season unfortunately. Last season, Salernitana were in a similar situation to the current one and were lucky to get out of the relegation zone. But this season luck is not on their side

Napoli 2 - 1 Verona

It was a very good game, Napoli played to put pressure on Verona's defense, as a result Napoli had many opportunities to score a goal, but Verona's goalkeeper was very attentive and motivated to defend all of Napoli's shots, until Verona with The few times he arrived at Napoli's defense were they able to score a goal. but Napoli didn't give up and kept pressing until they managed to score 2 goals and win the game. With this victory, Napoli is in position number 7, still far from the places for access to the European Champions League, while Verona remains in the relegation zone, Verona's situation is very serious

Atalanta 2 - 1 Lazio

I expected to see a very balanced game, something like the type of game that would end in a draw, but what we saw on the field was the efficiency of Atalanta's attack and many penalties. With this victory, Atalanta remains in the access zone to the European Champions League. although there is only a difference of 4 points in relation to Napoli, I still consider it to be a big difference because Atalanta has been very consistent in the last few games and if they continue like this they will end up in one of the 4 positions for access to the European Champions League. As for Lazio, this season they are fighting just to stay in Serie A

INTER 1 - 0 JUVENTUS

To be honest, Inter performed much better and that was expected. I've been saying for a long time that Juventus won't be able to become champions with this current coach, at most Juventus will get second place, and it's sad that many seasons go by without Juventus being able to become champions. With Inter's victory, I highly doubt that Inter won't become champions. inter only needs to win in the next game so that the points difference in relation to juventus remains at 7 points. In other words, if this happens, Inter would have to lose 2 times, draw 1 time and Juventus would have to win 3 times to become champions. In 22 games that Inter played, they only lost in 1 game and there are only 16 games left to finish series A. What is the chance of Inter losing in 2 games and suffering 1 draw?
