I guess he is kind of done, you know what I mean? I had my doubts all along, but this only confirms my expectation that Pogba won't have the comeback many were hoping for. He has been injured so many times and with so many different things that this doesn't even surprise me anymore.

How would a coach try to integrate him into the team for the long-term when he is most likely injured two weeks later the latest again? This won't work and I can understand when Pogba is substituted for other players that they are not very amused about that. Pogba won't become a top performer again.
I think you're right, given the number of times he's been injured in space of 2 to 3 years and one thing about being injured is that it keeps players away from the pitch for a while and most times the don't perform according to their potential when they return, you'll see them declining gradually unitil they're totally finished and would be forced to retire early.
 Just like it happened at Realmadrid with Eden Hazard, who had several injury crisis while he was at the team, and each year everyone expected him to have a better comeback but Hazard kept declining and even became worst of a player, which forced him to retire at an early age, well I don't wish thst for Paul Pogba as well he's a great player and I think still has lots to offer to Juve but the way things are going he's become very prone to injury which is very bad for his career.
He was done way before he got here, and yet Juvnetus still wanted to keep him, which is beyond understanding why they would do something like that but it's their money and they made that bet. Right now, it looks like they are not going to be doing that well because of it, and I think it is going to be a tough decision in the end.

I do believe that it will take a while to make it happen, like get him back to shape and then get him to play properly, but that doesn't mean that he is going to suck forever, maybe there will be a stretch of time when he plays decently for them, or at least the fans hope so. Juventus faced a big difficulty last year, so it is understandable if they do not end up being that great right away.

Unfortunately, management and Massimiliano Allegri still put their trust in him, which is why Poga is still being maintained to this day, because according to Massimiliano Allegri, only a role like Poga can perfect Massimiliano Allegri's scheme, so Poga is still being maintained to this.

Juventus is well aware that this is why Juventus is trying to heal the injury that has always been a problem for them, there is not enough chance that when Poga really recovers from his injury, it seems that Juventus will sell him to a club that is really interested in recruiting him, because it is hindered by his injury which has made Juventus keep him until now ..
I agree about this as Juventus and Allegri both are doing not good decision about this injury porn player which is currently having positive report and things could be ok after the break but Al Ahli offer was perfect which was going to have good option for the Juventus as with this huge amount they can buy another good player, but we have to understand Allegri having Pogba in his system and want to keep him which is not bad as every coach having his personal favorite player for his strategy even he has many problems, but they want to keep him same happening in this case.

Hopefully now in this season with Juventus is having only domestic league they will try to have better things which help them for having better results and chance of title race as well, even this is not easy because we have competitive start of this season for few teams which will give their best for the title race.

I do not think the defeat for napoli against lazio can affect their title chances; There are no guarantees that other leaders (Inter, AC Milan etc) will winn their big games; what Napoli needs to do is similar to what they did last season, thrash all the lower teams and get the maximum points from them; worry less about the big guns in the league.
There are still many games to play and I don't think that Napoli defeat is something that will deprive them from the title race. There is still a lot of games to be played and Inter or Milan can still loss in some upcoming matches. They started they league very strong doesn't mean that they will be unbeaten.

Napoli should just stay focus on most all the small clubs,if they can succeed in this,they might win some of their big games,loss some and draw some. On the other hand these two clubs Inter and Milan are out this season with all seriousness and they can be a threat to Napoli from winning the league this season.
No doubt we are in early rounds of this season but still this is good wake-up call for the Napoli because they need to understand strength of the opponents and have done their best work which needed for the title race Lazio was at the bottom, but again they beat them in this match which is good for them and for their confident but surely now it's time for the Napoli to set their strategy and have better response in coming matches because in this season we have three competitors for them which are surely going to have fair chance for the title race with after break we will have Milan derby which will decide who is going to stay at the top even right now Inter Milan is much better and stronger but AC Milan performance is also impressive, and they can go through for the another three pointer in this game.

Napoli will not be worried about the strengths they have this season even though Napoli are also very aware that the strengths of their rivals have also begun to increase, such as Inter Milan and AC Milan. This season Napoli will continue to fight for the title because they still have a very long time so they will continue to use it as best as possible in every match. And in the next match I think Napoli will win because Genoa when facing Napoli, Genoa is often beaten by Napoli.
A loss in three games should not be used to judge the performance of Napoli but there is a need to worry. They are the defending champions and were in good form last season. The Italian league is becoming highly competitive and a loss took Napoli down to the sixth position. Napoli coach Rudi Garcia has already started complaining about some players after the loss against Lazio. He specifically singled out Victor Osimhen that his second-half performance was below standard. The coach may fail to unite the players if he keeps talking them down. The next game will be against Genoa, hopefully, Napoli will come out victorious.

Napoli loss was something that would boost their morale to come back hard on any team after the international break and teams like Inter Milan would mess up because they don't seem to be trust worthy and it will be hard to see them (Inter Milan ) get another 9 points without them playing a draw.

I do not think the defeat for napoli against lazio can affect their title chances; There are no guarantees that other leaders (Inter, AC Milan etc) will winn their big games; what Napoli needs to do is similar to what they did last season, thrash all the lower teams and get the maximum points from them; worry less about the big guns in the league.
Napoli is still losing once. As long as it can keep up with better result in upcoming games and the result from previous match meant nothing for the club. The main problem is the current situation is far different compared with last season.
Acmilan and intermilan have been making significant improvements while juventus had been free from all of sanctions targeted to the club. Napoli needs to put more effort in defending its champion last season.
I do believe if napoli had smaller chance in winning scudetto this season. It's likely it must be competing with another strong clubs like intermilan and acmilan.
I remember juventus had been also strong enough last season and it's almost placing at the second place.

Genoa CFC - SSC Napoli 2023-09-16 20:45
I think SSC Napoli win the game because Genoa CFC fails to make scoring opportunities and Garcia is making a difference in our teams performance and their drive to victory: Victor seems in very good shape.

My opinion: Napoli is angry for lost game with Lazio and want to win for stay near the top

Due to their strong start to the season, Napoli was predicted to defeat Lazio in their last match. However, Lazio surprised everyone by playing well and was fortunate to earn their first three points of the campaign against Napoli after losing their first two games against Lecce and Genoa. The defending champion Napoli suffered a shocking loss, but I am now confident that they will take advantage of any further opportunities to defeat Genoa because, according to statistics, they have won four of the previous five meetings between the two teams.

Anyway, still nothing can be predicted with certainty because anyway, Milan and Inter at this moment are also the best teams because they are playing without defeat. So yes, I personally will still admit they are better this moment and will not continue to force it only about Napoli, Napoli and Napoli. After all, before Napoli managed to get the Scudetto also basically Napoli was never consistent. Moreover, at this moment Napoli have a new coach too and of course, it will also have an impact on Napoli's performance this season. Therefore, I personally cannot continue to impose judgments only for Napoli because of course, other teams are also trying to be the best and they have a chance as well.

There is no longer a good possibility for Paul Pogba's career, like footballers who have been injured, they will be very vulnerable to being injured again, as happened to Paul Pogba, he has been injured several times, even Juventus took quite a bold step when brought him last season but the results were very disappointing, while at Juventus Paul Pogba spent more time healing from injuries.
Even now there is news circulating that Juventus is considering cutting Paul Pogba's salary because of his frequent injuries and lack of contribution to the team.

We all know Paul Pogba is a player who frequently gets injured, but his condition has gotten worse since returning to Juventus, so no reason to see why the team should continue paying him. Instead, I believe they will cut off his pay, and if they do, no other team will be willing to sign him, with the exception of a Saudi club, or he should put an end to his career.

Seria A is highly competitive with more remarkable performance coming in from elite clubs. Nominating Juventus to be favorites to win the Scudetto this season, I have concerns to doubt your opinion. The previous season, Juventus did record stellar performance in league games, for some reasons they violated some essential rules that got the bianconeri points deducted on the league table. Making them missing out on the UEFA Champions League spots, this season is entirely different. There are other elite clubs that are ready to compete with Juventus and Napoli for the scudetto, it's definitely not going to be am easy race.
Juventus absence from the Champions League and Europa League due to sanctions has given them the freedom to focus completely on Serie A and the Coppa Italia. If you look at it from this angle, I agree to put them in the favorites list, along with AC Milan, Inter Milan and Napoli. Even though the sanctions received have resulted in reduced income for the club, Juventus has no choice now but to set a Scudetto target.

On the other hand, AC Milan and Inter Milan are a real challenge, the performance of these two clubs has not been flawed at all. Moreover, Inter have not conceded at all, it is certainly not easy competition for Aleggri's squad this season.

Napole take first defeat with Lazio and stay to 6 points, and Inter and Milan are the only with full points (9), Inter seems in good shape, 3 wins.
Milan suffers but stay near Inter.
Inter Milan is ranked 1st in the standings because no ball has yet been able to enter Inter Milan's goal. It's great to see Inter Milan become more solid in defense. And their attacks are also more well organized. I think Inter Milan will not be very good this season. Turns out I was wrong. It seems that Simone Inzaghi is a truly reliable coach who can make the squad he trains be in optimal performance. Last season Inter Milan also surprised everyone by qualifying for the UCL final. Is it possible this season this club will also do something similar like last season? I think it could happen again.

Inter Milan is currently leading the league with points, but that doesn't mean they will perform the same as they did last season. If you look at how serious AC Milan is about each of their matches right now, I have faith that they will perform better than Inter Milan this year with the players they have. On the other hand, Napoli's loss against Lazio doesn't necessarily mean that they will be weak for the entire season. Instead, it may inspire them to regain their strength and perform better in their upcoming matches.

I also agree. If anyone else can actually take the Scudetto it is going to be Juventus.  They are very determined to win this time and they are more determined to prove that they deserve better than what happened with them.  The coach was also very determined to bring better results for the team because he was also under a lot of pressure. And I don't think he deserved that as well. But there will definitely be big competition for the title this season.

Serie A  did not have too much competition in the last season especially at the top, but this season it is going to be different. I know it is still very early, but almost all the teams which generally finish at the top are very interested in the trophy.  The teams have also invested good amount of money to bring in better players.  This time it is not going to be easy for anyone to win the title.

Inter Milan and AC Milan has been very impressive in their performances in this season's Italian Serie A campaign. Both has won all their three league games so far and all they all won in convincing fashions making it very hard for anyone to predict the outcome of the Milan derby that's coming up after the FIFA international break.
While AC Milan has conceded two goals in the three league games they've played so far, Inter Milan are yet to concede one and are the only Italian club that's yet to concede a goal this season. AC Milan with all their attacking talents will want to break that deadlock while Inter will want to have a perfect victory. I can't predict the final score but I know the teams are gonna surely find the back of the net
Last three seasons, three champions in Serie A are Inter Milan, AC Milan and Napoli. Two clubs from Milan are ready and have enough ambition to take over Scudetto from Napoli. Napoli looks to be good in this season even they just lost against Lazio and if they are actually good, they will make Scudetto competition is very exciting.

AC Milan look to have better preparation for this season than Inter Milan with their transfers in the summer but in reality, both clubs have been playing well so far. Napoli will face with bigger challenge from Inter and AC Milans to defend their Scudetto. With poor performances from Lazio and Roma, Serie A likely will have a champion from either AC/Inter Milan or Napoli as two clubs from Rome are not competitive enough.

If there is another club can take Scudetto, I believe Juventus should be called.

I also agree. If anyone else can actually take the Scudetto it is going to be Juventus.  They are very determined to win this time and they are more determined to prove that they deserve better than what happened with them.  The coach was also very determined to bring better results for the team because he was also under a lot of pressure.

With such a meeting record, it is very unlikely that Milan will be able to beat Inter. However, this is a very fierce derby and it is quite difficult to predict who will win. I think Inter can be superior with this domination but this time Milan also doesn't want to get the same results as last season by losing in various competitions. I think Milan won't be playing around anymore this time and they will be serious about challenging Inter in the derby which will take place this month.

Inzaghi is indeed famous for his prowess in always destroying Pioli but of course Pioli has fully learned from previous experiences so that this doesn't happen again. So I think the possibility that Milan will win this time and even though the chance is very small, it is enough to influence the situation that will arise later. Moreover, so far the two teams have won consecutive games at the start of the season, so this will be an opportunity for both of them to stay away from each other in the standings.
Pioli certainly now knows how strong Inter is. they have to make a stronger midfield and defense line. Even though Inter no longer has Lukaku on their front line, from the 3 successful matches played by Inter, Martinez and Thuram have played a very dangerous role.
If they want to win or just hold Inter to a draw, Pioli will definitely strengthen their midfield to work very hard in the next match. Such a strategy might make Milan's attack less, but in that way, it can only provoke gaps in Inter's defense. Pioli may have to prepare a striker with speed and good finishing.


Inter is all set with their offensive players in my opinion and this game between them and AC Milan will be a serious preliminary showdown as to whether AC Milan is as strong as they seem and can even come out as the winner in a game against their fiercest rivals in that derby.

But there is also the game Juventus Turin vs. Lazio and this is another important game, very significant and it will give some insights into the condition of both of the teams. For Lazio a win would be the perfect makeup after their failed start into the season and for Juventus it would be an important step into the direction everybody expects them to go.

. But apart from this, that at this moment Milan and Inter have equally good results in the Serie A standings, because they also managed to get three consecutive wins. With these good results, it will certainly be difficult for us to predict which team will win in the next match because after all, Milan and Inter at this moment have the same good quality.
Exactly.
Both have quite significant appearance and performance improvements. What's more, with no feeling of home or away, the two of them will compete more optimally, especially against their city rivals. This will be really high tension. If one can be the winner, it will be very expected. But at least, they may be drawn. This is their first meeting in Serie A this season, so, each will show their best to conquer his opponent no matter what the means and obstacles.
I'm sure the meeting between the two will feature a great match considering that these two rival clubs will play their best and get points from this match because both of them have never been beaten in three matches earlier this season, the 4th week of this meeting will be the umpteenth time even though I'm not sure they will play full game by fielding many key players.

After the second meeting this weekend, of course, there will also be a UCL match which the two will face in three days afterward, so of course they will also maintain consistency and maintain the stamina of the players so they don't feel tired, even so, fellow rivals also don't want to lose points, at least they want to come out winning and earning points, but I believe it will be a draw.

Regardless of that I think after the game between Empoli and Juventus, Allegri had a good speech because instead of saying we are better than Inter Milan for winning the Serie E title and we got a stronger team, he just said Inter Milan and some other teams like Ac Milan got better situation and stronger teams than us to decrease the pressure on his team, which is a wise move from this coach.




As a coach, he is very good and wise, he managed a poor year in terms of athletic training, he had few players, almost all of them injured. He played in emergency.
From here you can see when a coach is good or not.


There is no need to wait for the players to get injured, even when the core players are healthy and fit, Allegri often changes playing tactics which sometimes makes mistakes, here this coach seems very lacking, different from before when he was given star players where Allegri was able to bring Juventus to the Scudetto 5 times and 2 Copa Italias. Of course that's an extraordinary achievement, but it's very different from now when in the era of young Juventus players, Allegri was actually unable to lift and even the current players are quite good but sometimes with unreasonable decisions that create disaster for his own team...

It's too early to say Allegri is not a good coach,
that's right. When Allegri won the title with Juventus, the team had star players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Paulo Dybala and Gianluigi Buffon. These players bring extra quality to the team and make the coach's job easier.
but I think when a team turns to youth or new players, it may need to make bigger tactical adjustments.
I see that Allegri is known as a flexible coach and tends to rotate his playing tactics. This can be an advantage against teams with different opponents, and it was proven last week that Juventus was able to win 2 - 0 over Empoli.
