I'm not convinced with Roman at all. I doubt they'll be able to win today against Fiorentina. The only factor that's in favor of Roma is Mourinho aside from the fact they're playing at home. Mourinho knows how to win these types of games. He's a winner, he may not play well but he'll manage to get all 3 points.
Fiorentina on the other hand know exactly what they're doing. The only match this season they lost that I did not expect them to lose in the league was Empoli. Every other match was against a tougher opponent. They lost to Juventus, Inter, Milan, and Lazio so far. And there lies the problem, Roma is also a tougher opponent.

Even though the game was not very convincing, Roma slowly managed to climb back to fourth place. Jose Mourinho is aware of the strength of his team which is still far behind in material terms compared to Juventus and Inter Milan, but he always prioritizes his players to always perform all out in every match. Roma must maximize their matches against Fiorentina and Bologna, then Mourinho's troops will face a busy period and face relatively tougher teams. If Roma is able to overcome this obstacle, Rome's chances of staying in the top four zone are quite big.

We have Juventus and problems having strong connection, or we can say Juventus is having nature of having problems beside them for decades which bring them down every time easily, and they have to face things from nowhere in current season we have some improvement from them which is helping them for having better results, and they are doing good job until now even now most chances they will be stayed at this spot for long time because Inter Milan is impressive and having enough difference for not allowing their opponents to touch them, but things can take changes, and we can expect some good performances in coming weeks specially after transfer window which will bring some exciting changes in few teams.

I also think the same, the Scudetto is very close at the moment, but I would like Juve to stand out, of course I am not going to deny that Roma would also like them to reach the top, but I think that Juve has more need, due to which is always with constant prohibitions on the part of UEFA, and Serie A itself, in fact last season the change was free for Napoli so that they could win, and so it was, they did nothing to be able to decline the number of points They were subtracted from them, that is something very bad because it is not fair that way, the prohibitions should not always be for the team, nor for the players, they should take away privileges from the owners of the clubs so that they do not play good football, in fact What they did for this season I appreciated that it was an act of very bad vibes for all of football, making it so that only Serie A can be played, so it is something that is not fair and that they should stop being so severe, It is the first time that I see such strong prohibitions and sanctions on a team, it makes me think badly.

Regarding Juve's performance, even if they are very tired in the 90th minute, they must play with much more enthusiasm, overcoming everything that is fatigue and what it means to be in a very bad position, this in part makes the players of the team feel bad for not having so much recognition, things should not be like this, neither for this team nor for anyone, I am a person who will always be very happy to talk about prohibitions and unfair sanctions, due to the bad acts of some few, they should not pay justly for sinners, because this is not what is sought in football, on the contrary, they seek to do better things so that they can set an example for the world, but with football, the best thing is to give the For example with football and not with absurd prohibitions, this is an epidemic in governments, and it is unfair that they also politicize sports, personally I abhor these types of sanctions.



Well for now Inzhagui's team is doing well, they have gone ahead by two points and are leaders in Serie A, Juve is not doing badly, but at one point they were leaders as I had said in the previous post, but now Inter is showing that it is a team worthy of being a UCL finalist, however when we talk about a team like ROma with 24 points, that is, with 14 points less than the leader it has a very difficult time, because this team although Moy started well, they allowed themselves to win games that should not be allowed to fall, the bad thing is that Mou did not know how to take advantage of the good moment to be on top but rather they allowed themselves to be won so they have lost very valuable points, it is difficult but not impossible that Roma can access the privileged places like the first 4, although the results in football are not written yet, they have to make a superhuman effort to win and win from now on, I don't know, but they have to do it whatever it takes, if they want to compete to enter the UCL, because it is time for Roma to take center stage.


For now, Inter has the lead, which I don't like, they are a great team, but I think Juve has to win everything, they are clear about it, a 1st place is not the same as a 2nd place, because a second place It is not the same when it comes to measuring the reasons why they displaced them with that great ban they gave them, for me it is one of the best teams in the world, and above all they have more heart, because with everything they have passed and continue to pass, they are convinced that they are better than ever even though things have not gone as they want, it is absolutely splendid if they win Serie A, for what I have said and so that they give them a good lesson to the UEFA, because such a severe sanction is quite strong for a team that wants to move forward, that no matter where it sticks its head in, it would be excellent for that.

Italian Media Argue VAR Correct To Award Inter Milan A Penalty In Serie A Win Vs Udinese

In this season we have good competition in league table after top two teams we are having six teams which are giving their best for staying in UEFA connection and this is going to be interesting because Napoli and AC Milan are having troubling time even their start was good with Fiorentina and Atlanta are also having average performance with AS Roma is doing good, and now they can take fourth spot if they are able to beats Fiorentina in next few hours game.

Bologna and Lazio both are excellent, but things are looking not favorable for them, but we are having good changes in Serie A which will increase their performance and quality and this will also help for having better results in UEFA events like last season, but they also needed consistency which is most important.

The thing is, for Juventus, especially the kind of problems that they face. Face often, it is hard for them to stay consistent throughout the whole season. Because sometimes even if they are consistent, a problem which they never thought of arrives and they have to deal with it.

Of course, I hope that they do not face themselves in any kind of problems like that. But that has been the story for them in recent seasons. Right now Juventus is in a good position. And hopefully, they will be able to continue performing well. But it is definitely going to be hard towards the next part of the season.

In Italy, no one can compete with the big four at all. Only occasionally does someone manage to enter the top 4, but these are rare occurrences. In fact, the top 4 are always held by Juventus, Inter, Milan and Napoli, and the title is held by the first three and very rarely Napoli. Despite the bad start, Roma was still able to beat everyone else (who can actually be beaten) plus Napoli. If they finish the season in four, it will be another successful season for Mourinho (which is very atypical because he seems to have a third season problem).

Consistency is one very big issues Juventus suffered at the beginning of the season and after awhile it seemed like they got passed it and most recently they have began to exhibit some Trace of it again and it a key problem to their ranking as it will do them more har then good if they would really want to win the league titles this season.

Just like you rightly mentioned they have the opportunity now to gather as many points as possible so that at the tail end of the league if it turns out they are becoming weak and probably inconsistency sets in, the points they have accumulated so far will be an edge for them with which they can use to maintain a stand within the top Three and be sure to get back to the top at any time, because it's actually common amongst big teams to have some set backs twords the end of the season.

The acknowledgment that even big clubs can indeed face challenges in maintaining consistency towards the end of the season. Indeed, in a competitive league, every point matters, and securing a strong position early on can be crucial, especially considering the challenges of maintaining consistency throughout the entire season. Football is known for unpredictability of technical and non-technical aspects, like injuries and suspensions, and the dynamics of a league can change rapidly.

The increasing pressure comes along the season running through the ending phase. It makes those things essential for teams like Juventus to be vigilant and strategic in their approach. In football, there are no guarantees, and the league standings can shift quickly. Staying focused, avoiding complacency, and accumulating points steadily are key components of a successful campaign. If Juventus want to navigates the challenges of the season, every game becomes an opportunity to secure points and builds a foundation for a strong finish.

Inter Milan started this season with much stronger strength compared to last season even though if you look at it a number of important players from last season were sold. I saw the Juventus vs Inter Milan match as an opportunity to break Inter Milan's dominance, but Juventus was only able to draw at home. The big victory against Udinese further cemented Inter Milan's position at the top of the standings with a difference of 2 points from second-placed Juventus.

Martinez and Calhanoglu are increasingly productive in scoring goals even though they both have different playing positions and the combination of these two players is also quite solid, making the front line sharper and more productive. Also most importantly their defense is getting better because they conceded less in the last few matches.

At least as roma can try that. Roma is good enough to face juventus soon and jose mourinho can use this match to measure how strong his team is. Having lukaku will be really helpful for as roma. Juventus will not let roma to get three points too.
The match is very hard to predict. We are still far away from the match between roma vs juventus. Roma needs to face some clubs like fiorentina, bologna and napoli.

Mounrinho can try to win those matches before the match against juventus. Roma is slowly climbng up and i would like to say that if it's a bit better than napoli even though it was struggling since the early season.

I also agree with you guys. That's why I think Juventus should somehow look to get as many points as they can from the early stages. In this season it is definitely going to be very hard for them to continue performing consistently towards the end of the season.

We all know that even a lot of being clubs can actually fail to perform consistently toward the end. We have seen that from a few clubs already. So I will say that Juventus should be careful. And they will also have to remember that the competition is increasing day by day in this league. There is no safe position until and unless you are the winner.

The gap is very tight between Roma, Napoli (same number of points as Roma), Fiorentina and Atalanta (-1 point), Bologna (-2 points), Lazio and Monza (-3 points taking in consideration the result of the actual game where they are leading).
This means that if Roma will not win in this match, it will not only lose its place for Fiorentina but could also move to the 10th place easily if they drop additional points next time and the other teams win
If they win against Fiorentina, then they will have at least 3 points gap from all of them and they will be just 2 points behind of Milan.

There is no reason for Inter Milan not to continue to show their best game even with opponents who are far below them in quality. If they do something like that then it's the same as digging their own graves. Things like underestimating opponents for me is something that must be avoided, because it will backfire which will harm them.
Inter Milan have done very well so far, now their job is how to maintain their impressive appearance until at least they are certain to get the Scudetto title this season.

So far no team has been able to stop Inter Milan apart from Sassuolo, that is the only defeat suffered by Simone Inzaghi squad. Udinese is not a strong team, their efforts to get away from the degradation zone failed again, which is natural considering that overthrowing Inter would require a big miracle for them. In my opinion, Inter is the strongest candidate to win the Scudetto this season, I would put Juventus in the next position, and we will see the competition for the Serie A title without involving Milan and Napoli.

Inter goal productivity this season is quite significant when compared to last season, and the defense line is also quite good at reducing the number of goals conceded. Inter next ambition is to win group D and beat Real Sociedad in the final match of the UCL group phase. Inter's position is quite comfortable at the moment, both in Serie A and in the UCL.

It was a painful defeat for AC Milan as they lost to a late goal before the end of the match. I thought that it was going to be a draw when the clock hit 90 minutes and only had to spend extra time. But Atalanta did not give up so easily that they could create a goal while ensuring themselves to secure 3 full points in this match. This result makes the points owned by AC Milan even further away and now their point diference is 7 points with Juventus and becomes 9 points from the top of the standings, Inter Milan.

I do not think that it would be all that chaotic, we are talking about a situation where Juventus is already better than 95%+ of the league, maybe Inter could be considered better, and only maybe and nothing is certain but aside from that I think Juventus is better, so away games will not matter. They may end up being good enough to just win the league all together and not have any trouble at all.

This is not sure thing, if they get any player injured then they may get worse and the results may not be good, but that will not be because home or away game difference, that would be because they may miss players to injury, if that doesn't happen and they are healthy then they are going to have a chance to win, and if other teams that are near their points end up with injury trouble then Juventus will eventually have even better results. This is why I believe that the best thing to do right now would be just focusing on winning the way they did all season.

So far Roma are in the Champions League zone and this is probably the best result they can achieve this season. By the way, they have a game against Fiorentina today and if Roma lose, Fiorentina will take their place.

This was definitely a very big win for Inter against Udinese. They have performed really well. They did not give any chance to their opponent to actually get something from this match. Even though The match was supposed to be won by Inter they still had to perform to get the three points. And at the same time, they also did a good thing by scoring so many goals. Because that is going to be very good for the goal difference going forward. Inter looks like they are in great form right now. First, they were able to beat Napoli with a good goal difference and now in this match, they have also proved their dominance.

this is a heavy defeat for Milan, losing against Atalanta makes them slip very low and it is officially a crisis for Milan with Pioli`s bench wobbling.
Unfortunately Pioli hasn`t been able to bring Milan back to a winning state for a long time, I know there are many injured but it`s a Milan that can`t win at all.
