20–30 years is a big joke, mate. As seasons come and go clubs make changes in both their coach and players so if Milan don't go far this season , next season might see a new shape. Al though the last time the CL cup went to Seria A was in 2010, but that doesn't mean Inter Milan can't do it again in 2023. The World Cup break was enough for all qualified Clubs to make corrections to the mistakes they encountered in the CL group stage. I hope to see an interesting CL with more suspense and less accurate predictions.
I expect Napoli, Inter and Milan this season to really show their best in the Champions League. These three teams have a good chance considering that their opponents are also not that strong. Frankfurt, Porto and Tottenham are not very strong teams, but they can also go far in the Champions League this season instead of falling short in the last 16.

In Serie A, the competition between Inter, Napoli and Milan is always expected to be tighter. Napoli lead the standings, but they must not be too arrogant to declare themselves unbeaten. Milan must have hopes and opportunities to make Napoli fail in the end.

I'm still very unsure about Serie A teams in the Champions League and indeed, in the past Serie A teams have been very good teams to compete in the Champions League. But for the current era, I think the Serie A teams are still not strong enough to be able to go further or go further in the Champions League.
What's more, Milan will play against Tottenham, so I think the chance for Milan to qualify for the next round is very low. But yes, for Inter and Napoli the chance to advance to the quarter-finals is still possible, considering they also have easier opponents.

But even if these Serie A teams qualify for the quarter-finals, I personally really believe that they will probably fall in the quarter-finals. Which means, I still don't believe any Serie A team can reach the final in the Champions League at this moment.
Because for them to maintain good performance in Serie A alone, I think it's still quite difficult for them. Moreover, the opponents in the Champions League are the best teams so for me personally, Serie A teams at this moment are still not strong enough for competition even further in the Champions League.

The italian league this season is a game of surprises .  Napoli performance this season is so outstanding that nobody expected it to be this way. Some teams that has bad record in previous season are doing better in their performance.  I expect Napoli to win a trophy this season.
We hope that bro, we hope that Napoli can win this season and give a new colour to the Italian league, but we must not close our eyes, we are still on the way to winning the championship, even though so far Napoli has played well in the middle of this season, we do not rule out the possible bad things happen from injuries or what can make Napoli go down, this must be of particular concern to Luciano Spalletti as a coach to insert his players and maintain the stability of his play.
the Italian league winners in previous seasons can still catch up, as Milan and Juventus are still continuing to improve their performance.

The last 3 matches of Salernitana before the world cup break didn't go well, but seeing Milan's condition in attack, this is a bit of a consideration.
In plain view, this is an easy match, it should be just that with some of Milan's current conditions that are not very good, of course this is a bit of a real problem for them. As I said in a number of previous posts, even if Milan wins, it will only be a narrow win.

Bottom teams can be a problem for AC Milan. I often see blunders made by Milan when dealing with lower teams. I don't know what caused this. If Milan repeated the mistake, while Napoli could win the mtch, then the gap in points would widen and this would not be good for Milan. After that, maybe Milan will compete for the second positions with Juventus not for title again, because it will be more hard for Milan.
This is a concern, they are also currently having a little difficulty improving their current defense even though the target productivity for attack is quite good but their defense is still a little weak at the moment.
Milan are still the favorites but that doesn't mean they will win easily in their current situation and Pioli still has to prove his worth.

No money In Italy, only few clubs have, but bottom table teams struggling, and without competitive league, very hard  for top teams to compete in Europe. IMO Italy clubs will not won nothing in Champions League next 20-30 years
I think it's a little wrong to say this without being competitive because even though Serie A lost to other domestic leagues such as La Liga or the EPL, the competition in Serie A last season was even more tense when compared to other big leagues.
When talking about the big leagues in Europe such as the Champions League or the Europa League, currently in the Champions League there are 3 of their representatives (Milan, Inter and Napoli) and for the Europa League, Roma have confirmed that they will qualify for the next phase and are now waiting for Juventus in the Play off, how do you say that? no competition for other big clubs in other domestic leagues lol

Are you coming from the future?Italian team have been managing to enter in final of UCL so many times since 2000 until now. I think that you shall not even underestimate italian team just becuase it has less resource compared with another team from other league. italian team has the same chance like any other team. Saying italian team will not win anything until 20 - 30 years later was a joke. I think that you shall take a look at the data before try to say something about that. Ac milan has won UCL in 2003 and 2007. Intermilan in 2010. Juventus was almost making it a few years ago.

No Offense, but I agree that Serie-A teams may find it difficult to get the title of UCL with the current players composition. However, I don't agree if it's 20-30 years. Because there will be many quality players who are promoted or brought in to Serie-A. If within 20 years since Inter won, the possibility of not seeing a champion from Serie A still makes sense. Because in the next 5 years, if Serie-A players quality are still under players from the Spanish league quality, of course it won't be possible. Maybe if Ancelotti coached the right club like Milan 10+ years ago, the UCL title could be won again by a Serie-A team, because I think Ancelotti has UCL DNA Cheesy

Jose Mourinho was targeted because he was considered a coach who made AS Roma not on a good track now. Even though he managed to present a trophy, sooner or later there will be a lot of pressure for AS Roma management to immediately fire Jose Mourinho because he is considered not to have done anything good. Indeed this will be a consequence of a coach, if it is good then keep it, and if it is bad then they will be fired immediately.
This is an opportunity for Jose Mourinho to restore the team's self-confidence by winning this game, otherwise sharp criticism will be heard for him.
When you win games and get good results you get all the praises but as soon as things begin to go the wrong way as a manager, you lose trust of the management and even the fans. The fact that Roma are not having a good run of form will definitely raise critics which only getting good results can turn things around, imo this is a good opportunity for Mourinho to try and change the current situation with the poor results by winning the first game.
It is obvious that people will want such a manager and such team to win games, and maybe not win the title but at least go for a UCL entry position as well because if not then why all the expense. They were doing exactly this way before him, and they are still doing the same after nearly 2 years of him as well, makes no sense for anyone to just accept this as okay.

Yeah, they got the conference cup last year and kudos for that, it was definitely a good cup. However, that is not enough, league results needs to be better or Mourinho should be fired by this summer, anything under 4th would be not acceptable if I was the management, it doesn't make sense to see that as success.

It all really depends on the quality of the players and coaches. I agree that Ancelotti is a coach who has Champions League DNA, but with a team that lacks quality, the chances are very slim. But things can still change, in fact there is always the chance to see Serie A team have a great journey in the Champions League every season.

Now Napoli, Milan and Inter have the opportunity to have a great journey in the Champions League. They have already qualified for the round of 16 and they only have to fight for a ticket to the quarter-finals. Napoli and Inter have the better chances, while Milan looks set to have a hard time beating Tottenham. There are at least 2 Serie A teams that I think have a good chance of qualifying for the quarter-finals, well let's hope that's true.

Napoli is eleven points ahead of Lazio in the Serie A table, and Napoli is in excellent form; therefore, I don't believe Lazio can catch Napoli unless Napoli stops winning matches.

I am confident that Napoli will win the Serie A title because they have everything it takes to win the league, and Juventus and Inter, who are expected to challenge them, are not in good form, which is why I want Napoli to win the title.

Bookmakers estimate Lazio's chances of winning Serie A as 1 to 62. In my opinion, if you make such non-obvious bets, it's better to bet on Udinese and get x675 if they win  Grin With Napoli, everything is clear - odds of their victory have already fallen to 1.43 and it is difficult to dispute their fairness. I have long wanted Napoli to become champions and apparently this season is now.

You are right about that, a friendly game is very useful for the technical directors to see how their players are doing, even those who are a doubt for them and keep them on the bench, I think it is a way of seeing that they can use them in the best way, This is what the friendlies are for and also to see how connected they are within the team and if they are mentally and physically well prepared for a high-level football team

these friendly games are only for the teams to comply with the regulations that have been imposed, for the teams the friendly games are a great risk to put their main players because they can suffer some injury during the friendly game and that would cause problems when the team would do something league game, for example in cases where the team is at the top of the league, this team will not put its good players for a friendly game, but as it has to comply with the rules, the teams put players from team B to play, but they are not doing this with the aim of testing their players and being placed in the A team

then if we are going to compare ourselves to Roma, obviously a game that has to be being friendly will not show their true level, especially with a technical director like Mou who always has many Aces up his sleeve.

in fact it can even show the level of the team, if a team has good players in the B team too, then that team is very strong, they can be strong in the A team and in the B team and also winning in the friendly matches is always a good thing because this shows that the coach even playing with team A is very competent to the point of winning the game even in that condition

And some of the speculations that you see are:

Sources Say Roma Could Include Bove and Volpato in Frattesi Transfer

Quote
Despite not being fierce rivals on the pitch, Roma and Sassuolo have a rather unique relationship. While the powers that be grapple with whether or not to allow top-flight clubs to have B-teams in lower leagues, Roma has used Sassuolo as a veritable petri dish over the past decade. From failed prospects like Luca Antei to success stories like Lorenzo Pellegrini, Roma has farmed out a lot of talent to Sassuolo over the years.

And the latest name coming off that production line is former Roma academy graduate Davide Frattesi. Like Pellegrini before him, Frattesi was the jewel of the Giallorossi academy, but economic forces conspired in the summer of 2017, forcing Roma to sell Frattesi to Sassuolo, though they were smart enough to retain a 30% future sell-on fee.

Roma need to go to the market and hire good players for their attack, if they don't make some changes in the team then even mourinho will leave rome, it's not possible to stay in a team that doesn't fight for the title, they just keep playing, mourinho and a coach likes to win things, the way rome is they have no chance of winning the serie A and high level european competitions

in order for Juve or Ac Milan to catch up, one of them has to get back real strong and Napoli has to lose their strength that they started with, this scenario is difficult to happen, it would be a really big surprise for me if Napoli won't win the league by the end of this season.
We can determine whether napoli will be quite consistent during the rest of matches in serie a or not after we will be seeing the result between napoli against intermilan. that will become a very important match that will make another team try to observer whether napoli has lose its strength in serie a or it will keep continue to dominate the league for this season. it's quite difficult to find a club by just seeing from the result of friendly match. Napoli needs to prove it against intermilan. If napoli will win easily and no chance for another team to take scudetto

even if napoli loses against Inter, that's not enough to determine that they won't be champions, there are many games, and in those many games, inter can lose points against weak teams and napoli can gain points against weak teams, the only advantage that Napoli has to beat inter and just that they would have more points and distance even more from all teams, but beating inter does not guarantee that they will be champions

Facing the Salernitana won't be so easy for Milan, even if it's a very easy game for Milan on paper, they have to take into account injuries and few alternatives in the attack department. Salernitana plays well and is not afraid of the big teams, already shown against Juventus. For AC Milan, unfortunately, losing could be fatal and seeing the disadvantage stretch even further! on the other hand, however, there is a big match Inter vs Napoli and I think milan will be rooting for the cousins ​​of inter
The last 3 matches of Salernitana before the world cup break didn't go well, but seeing Milan's condition in attack, this is a bit of a consideration.
In plain view, this is an easy match, it should be just that with some of Milan's current conditions that are not very good, of course this is a bit of a real problem for them. As I said in a number of previous posts, even if Milan wins, it will only be a narrow win.
in the last dec 15 friendly match with alanyaspor, salernitana lost 3-1 so their chances of winning against milan are of course very small. milan is currently in 2nd place in the serie a standings with 33 points and they have the ambition to win all the matches that are ahead, we will definitely see milan win easily in the match against salernitana later.

yes Milan are second in the standings and fighting to win all their matches and also for the Scudetto and Salernitana and twelfth in the standings and fighting not to relegate to Serie B. The Italian Serie A is a very tough league and it is easy to lose points against the small teams, the Salernitana would also benefit from a draw in this match! I remain convinced that AC Milan must win anyway but I don't take it for granted

no one is forgetting these teams, I'm talking about Milan Juventus and so on. But at the moment Napoli is the team that convinces the most, for how the whole team plays in a perfect and synergistic way.
Leicester won the premier league with normal players (no stars) and a great manager, Ranieri.
The team has to turn, the players have to fit together well, then the spells happen
Of course Napoli is one of the most convincing ones because of their form, but I really hope that other teams will be tough in the second half of the season. Napoli have tended to fail to maintain their form in the last few seasons and there is a possibility that this season they will experience the same thing. That is one of the interesting facts about Napoli, but I really admit that expectations about them are very high.
Well, I know that the expectations of many are much higher when it comes to Napoli, for me they are at a very good level, but what I have been commenting on for some time in my previous posts happens, and that is if they decide Selling their players will disintegrate the entire team, of course one of the things that can happen is that they run out of good players and start to lose, and it is very easy for them to lose and lose if they remain in the lead, and That is something very sad, at least I see it that way, and even more so if the directors do something like that, what explanations can they have? or what things can they say to their fans?

Seeing how Napoli is playing, there is a huge chance for Napoli to win against Inter, but Napoli didn't have enough good results against Inter. Out of their last 8 meetings, Napoli were only able to win 1x and because this match will be held at Inter's home, Inter remains the favorite to win for the bookie. bet @2.22 on Inter and @3.15 on Napoli, betting on Napoli and they win would be very profitable but I predict it will be a draw
A bold prediction, especially considering the fact that you attach importance to "historical" patterns, but do not pay attention to the fact that Inter have zero draws this season  Wink
In general, such quotes from bookmakers annoy me - Napoli have zero defeats, Inter have 5, but Inter is the favorite.It looks unfair, but from a betting point of view, this is a good opportunity to bet on Napoli or Napoli double chance.


For now as everything is, I think Napoli can give pleasant surprises, if the team is complete they can win, Inter is one of the toughest teams in all of Serie A, and it catches my attention because it is an Italian team and I think that all the Italian teams deserve to have a good position, in fact in the UCL they are giving the surprise, although for now everything is focused on meeting with PSG and Bayern, but for me in particular, Napoli has made great turns of Very good results. For now, what we have to wait for is these games to see how they look after the World Cup in Qatar, we all have good expectations.

Inter is a team that tries to retain its best players:

Inter’s Contract Extension Offer To Milan Skriniar Worth A Total Of €48M Gross Over Four Seasons, Italian Broadcaster Reports



Quote
Inter’s contract extension to defender Milan Skriniar would be worth around €48 million total in terms of gross wages, over a four-season period.

This according to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, via FCInter1908, who report that the Nerazzurri do not feel that they could go any further than the offer that is currently on the table for the Slovakian.

Skriniar and his representatives have had Inter’s contract extension offer for some weeks.

As of yet, no definitive response has arrived from the 27-year-old, who is still considering his future amid transfer interest from Paris Saint-Germain and other clubs.

For Inter’s part, there does not look to be a great deal more than the club could do to convince Skriniar, given the amount that they have already put forward.

I totally agree with you, Even Serie A is the number 3 competitive league in the world, how can he say that an Italian team won't be able to win anything in the champions league for the next 30 years? I also watched the 2007 UCL final when AC milan beat Liverpool and the 2010 UCL final at that time Inter Milan managed to beat the German giant Bayern Munich. Even now, several Italian teams are still fighting hard to win the UCL this season, such as Napoli, AC Milan and Inter Milan. The three teams will next compete in the play-off round in February 2023.

Judging from the composition of players like Tammy, Dybala, Wijnaldum, Belotti or Zaniolo, I don't think there is a shortage of players, but indeed sometimes the schemes and formations that are carried out also don't go very well, especially for their defense line. In 15 matches they managed to concede 14 goals, which means that 1 game is almost one goal ratio. Even though the attack line is still quite good, when the defense is like this, it is a little difficult too and this is the same as Inter now.
I'm quite surprised at what really happened to Rome, they have a coach and also good players but why do they always concede goals in every match they face, I agree with everyone who says Roma are very weak in defense

At this time the issue of Mourinho's departure has been dismissed because he prefers to train Rome rather than the Portuguese national team. so he should be able to focus on improving Rome's defense once again
But indeed, an incision like this is also a bit the same as other clubs, even Napoli, who are in first place, they have conceded 12 goals so far and the best is Juventus, who are always criticized but their goals are the fewest balls conceded.

But seeing this condition is clearly not something to be proud of because this still makes Serie A a little weak, of course, especially considering Inter's current condition.
As for Roma now they have to be prepared for the rest of the match because if they can't play well anymore then it seems like the demand to fire Mou is likely to be heard again.

Primer League have tradition for playing after one day from Christmas and they called with boxing days, but Serie A always have dispensation with free schedule before or after Christmas in several days. Still few days later with Serie A comeback after break out from World Cup exactly first match held on January 4 between Salernitana vs Milan.

All Serie A player have longer time get recovery after FIFA World Cup Qatar and they can spent Christmas and new years with their family because have four days later with Serie A competition start. I am waiting with Juventus performance, still can consistency or not after winning in 6 matches in a row before postponed with World Cup, although still have Napoli with unbeaten record until right now.

It will indeed be a very big surprise if Napoli, who have looked strong and have not been beaten this season, suddenly become weak. But I don't think that Napoli will turn out to be weak because they themselves are also aware that they are currently in a very positive and very good trend so there is a possibility for them to continue to maintain their appearance in every match so as not to be easily chased by opponents like AC Milan and Juventus.
