I don't like the idea of not focusing on titles for Juventus. Because it is the biggest motivation that can push them to play better. They can adopt this mentality this season as well even if it seems really difficult. Because they are already doing an amazing job in the league recently. They need a motivation source to keep up this good form as much as possible.
Finishing in top 3 would be a really good success for them by the way. Despite a bad start it would still be a good achievement for them. Besides the Europa League title should also be a target for them. Allegri needs to be successful to remain in the team next season as well.

I think Napoli should try to do better in the upcoming important matters after the World Cup. I think the matches against Juventus, Milan, and Inter are going to be very important for them. I believe looking at those matches we will be able to determine if they are actually going to play better after the World Cup or if are they going to choke again at an important time. I think this time they will actually be able to play well. They should learn enough from their previous seasons and now they should understand how to keep calm in these situations. In the end, I just cannot think that there will be throwing away that huge advantage that they have. They should be confident just knowing that they have a huge advantage coming after the break.
They have worked hard from the start of this season and their proof is now visible because indeed if I'm not wrong even a lot of people doubted Napoli when they sold some of their core players and now they have succeeded in making a better regeneration which indicates they have worked hard to this.I think they will still be the same if there are no significant changes in terms of players because if they still maintain the current scheme and players they will still be very strong.
We don't know yet about how this World Cup break will affect the teams. But in my opinion, Napoli can still come back with the same strength as long as they don't face injury problems after the break. They will have many big games waiting for them right after coming back to the league as well.
If they win these big games as usual then it will be even more difficult to stop them for any of the remaining teams. Milan are technically the closest team in the standings but I don't believe in them too much to keep up with Napoli in the meantime. The gap is already 8 points so Milan need to move on with a long winning streak to have a chance.
Napoli will have a crucial match in January. They will face Juventus and Inter Milan, these two teams will of course have the potential to destroy Napoli's winning record. So because of that, Spalletti must prepare his troops from now on because the World Cup break could change the atmosphere in the team.If they win these big games as usual then it will be even more difficult to stop them for any of the remaining teams.

Napoli will certainly benefit because not many of its players have competed in the World Cup compared to its three competitors, Juventus, Milan and Inter. But Spalletti also has to be wary of his players competing in Qatar with injuries and a drop in performance which of course will affect the team. But I'm sure Spalletti has prepared several options and Napoli will fight it out this season to win the Scudetto and it will be very difficult to stop because the points gap is now wide enough.

In the end, I just cannot think that there will be throwing away that huge advantage that they have. They should be confident just knowing that they have a huge advantage coming after the break.
Juventus shouldn't focus too much on winning titles, they should focus more on their own game. The reason is that it is true that they have won in a row, but I cannot say that their game is satisfactory. In fact, I think in some of their wins it was a stroke of luck that came their way. There is time for them to be able to perform even more satisfactorily, also some of the players have recovered from injury.
Yes, the slightest mistake will make them punished by other teams who are also threatening them. They should be able to minimize the mistakes they make. Napoli must continue to carry out evaluation after evaluation to keep them from the mistakes that continue to haunt each of their matches. Also about concentration, that's usually what makes players make mistakes, they have to be able to maintain their focus so they don't get lost.
What Napoli needs is focus, they have to focus on performance as has been shown since the start of the season. The International Break has given Napoli players a bit of a break especially for those who were not called up for the national team at the World Cup. Spalletti will need to watch every single one of his players to keep fit during the break, a mistake made after the international break could threaten to lose him in position. The competition for the Scudetto continues, Napoli must not give the slightest room for its competitors to disturb their position.
After a bad start, Juventus still somewhat in the track of Napoli. They are also unlucky that Napoli takes so many points and actually leaves nothing behind.
We can see the progress of Juventus' development in Serie A is very good. Even in several matches they never lose and always win with satisfying results and games. Their failure in the UCL certainly gave a bitter lesson so they kept trying in the Italian Serie. Although maybe this is also too difficult to get the title, moreover, the number of points is very different from Napoli. Napoli itself is the most consistent and growing club. But I don't know if after the FWC there will be a change in players at the club or not, which might interfere with Napoli's performance. Because after all there are some big clubs aiming at some Napoli players. Anyway, Juventus still have to watch out for, because if Napoli are satisfied with the results they have got so far. Then it might make Napoli suffer a decline in performance, but if Napoli can realize that they still have to be consistent, then of course it will be difficult for other teams to catch up to this.
But with the good results that Juventus have achieved in the last few matches, I personally don't think it's just luck.
Because for me, a team as big as Juventus will certainly be able to recover over time and if I'm not mistaken, last season Juventus also almost failed to finish in the top four, but in the end Juventus were able to finish in the top four.
Therefore, I believe that the increase in performance that has occurred at Juventus is a result of their hard work, because with this increase in performance, Juventus have also managed to beat other big teams such as Milan, Inter and Lazio.
If the increase in Juventus' performance is just luck, then at least Juventus will not be able to beat these big teams, but because this is a real increase in performance, it is proven that Juventus can beat these big teams.

Milan will not chase points from Milan and will not be able to shift Napoli's position with a point distance from the two of them which is quite far and after this World Cup I am sure that Napoli will go further, and fortunately Napoli players are still few who take part in the World Cup so that you can say Napoli's strength still intact and ready to win again in the match to come.If they win these big games as usual then it will be even more difficult to stop them for any of the remaining teams.

Juventus consistency performance with 6 consecutive wins and returning to 3rd position is currently becoming interesting in the race for the Scudetto title this season. Until week 15th Juventus is only 10 points behind Napoli who are in first place, I think with injured factor and several main player have returning back from injured make Juventus more stronger than started season begin.
But the winning record achievement by Juventus have stop awhile with international and postponed match until one match later, I don't think with one months postponed match Juventus get back chemistry performance after 6 winning in a row because have build at the early and several player not participants at World Cup have different physical I think.
Juventus have played really well in the last few weeks and managed to beat some pretty strong teams in the league. It is very difficult for another team to become the champion in a season where Napoli played so well, but it is necessary to congratulate Juventus, who won so many games in the last weeks despite not starting the league very well.But the winning record achievement by Juventus have stop awhile with international and postponed match until one match later, I don't think with one months postponed match Juventus get back chemistry performance after 6 winning in a row because have build at the early and several player not participants at World Cup have different physical I think.
We have a very long break ahead and the players can rest during this time. I hope the team doesn't lose their old performance
I will still be waiting for some of Juventus' upcoming important matches to confirm how consistent they are in reclaiming the Serie A title this season.
There is no reason to think that Juventus and Napoli are only playing for the title. It is true that Juventus have performed very well in the last few matches. They have been able to solve all the problems within the party. But there is no way to underestimate the AC Milan team. Milan is now second in the table. So I would say if Napoli loses the truck and drop points in several matches, then Milan and Juventus will try to win the title. Milan's performance this season is quite good. There is no way to neglect this team.
Yes, well in fact it's never good to underestimate these teams, none of them, for their part I know that Napoli is a very strong team and is beginning to be much more satisfied with the players they have, I don't know if they can take away the points , Juve is undoubtedly one of the teams that has always promised a lot in Italy, they always stand out and show a high level.
For me, Serie A is getting very exciting and I think this could be a trigger for these teams in the next transfer window to be much more interested in new players, I think that at this point they have already made enough money how to do new acquisitions, in Juve if I would like them to integrate new players.
Milan star Theo Hernandez sets incredible World Cup record with France
Quote
The 25-year-old Frenchman was initially left on the bench for his nation’s opening game of the tournament against Australia, but was brought on in the first half after his brother Lucas suffered a serious injury. Hernandez immediately impressed on the main stage and provided the assist for Adrien Rabiot’s equaliser, kickstarting his and France’s World Cup in the perfect fashion.
Hernandez followed this up with another assist in France’s 2-1 win over Denmark, setting up Kylian Mbappe’s opening goal with a smooth pass.

Well, in this World Cup things have turned out very strange with respect to the results, but it cannot be denied that there are some players who are trading very well for other teams.

Actually, for now, another pretty good thing for Napoli is that Kvaratskhelia and Osimhen, who are in good condition, are not there because obviously this can make at least the risk of fatigue and injury minimized for them and of course this is an advantage too, although there are indeed some opportunities for them leave but this is still just a rumour.
But on the other hand, of course, there will be some additional flying hours if players take part in the world cup.
In general, not so many Napoli players are in the world cup, so the potential for Napoli to continue to win in the second half of the season is clearly very wide open because Napoli can still formulate their best strategy to win games in the second half of the season. And also Napoli can improve their performances in the Champions League because the Napoli coach knows how the condition of their players is at the moment and also sees the opposing team's consistency starting to decline.But on the other hand, of course, there will be some additional flying hours if players take part in the world cup.
This isn't really a big problem because this is indeed an advantage, especially with this, the rest breaks don't go more and more.

So I would say if Napoli loses the truck and drop points in several matches, then Milan and Juventus will try to win the title. Milan's performance this season is quite good.

In this case what you say is true, but with Milan's current condition they are actually quite cornered in my opinion especially with their financial condition which makes this a little difficult.Milan's current condition in the standings is still very good but on the other hand we know that they currently have a lot of gaps that make them a little insecure and even after the break is over I'm actually still quite pessimistic about how they will face this season.
Hopefully management will do some positive work for the improvement of the quality because this is surely important task for them if they want to have chance for the top spot which is surely not possible without good players which surely need good funds as well.
Big advantage in my opinion. Not only they will be fresh but also they will have more time to prepare and improve whatever they need to improve during this break even if I think they are solid in all areas. I don't think Napoli will cease any of those players until next summer and if they will win Serie A , I think they will sell none of them until they have the UCL run after winning Serie A. However, I'm sure a lot of important and respectable clubs are already watching they "brains" of Napoli from the pitch. 
Sure, it is a big advantage. During the league break, Napoli players can have enough time to prepare anything for the next matches. The coach can order the players to have more time for training. This is something that the players won't get if they join the world cup matches.If the Napoli management and the coach are very serious to win Serie A title or UCL title, they surely won't sell any of their key players. They must refuse any offer in January although there is an interesting offer of big money from top clubs. I am sure there will be many offers from top clubs in the next transfer window, especially for Victor Osimhen. It is a big challenge for Napoli to ensure all players to stay until the end of the season.
I think it is absolutely impossible for the Napoli management to sell players in January transfers. This season is a big momentum for Napoli to win the Scudetto. Even to realize that (Scudetto), the Partenopei management even had to increase its strength.
And the most important thing for Napoli players to maintain at the moment is fitness. After the World Cup competition will be held again and Napoli will of course have more challenges to face. A big point difference with rivals is indeed an advantage, but Spalletti must remind his team not to get carried away with that, because threats are always stalking them every week.
If Napoli management is thinking about any point like this surely they are going to cut their own feet's or in simple words they are going to leave chance of winning title in this season right now we have enough rumors about their few players are under radar of big clubs but most chances they will not do any mistake which will be unrecoverable for them in this season which is surely going to have absolutely stunner for them because things are looking impressive for them and chances are bright for the title race with Champions League performance is also at his best, and they can give shocking results in this league as well which could be bonus for the players and management and surely going to increase value of their players as wall for the future.

After a bad start, Juventus still somewhat in the track of Napoli. They are also unlucky that Napoli takes so many points and actually leaves nothing behind. But we will see how Napoli will play after the winter break, it is different with a World Cup and then you are less together as a team. And there is hardly any time for practice matches. But we're going to have an exciting title fight, I don't think Napoli can maintain this high pace all season. Inter Milan is also going to get much closer in a few games. Would Ronaldo still go to an Italian club?

Napoli did have a bad experience when last season they had to be knocked out of the competition due to their own mistakes. They must use it as a whip so they don't repeat the same mistake. AC Milan, who are chasing with a distance of 8 points, also still have time as long as they can play by gaining 3 points from each match, while hoping that Napoli will make the same mistake again as last season. But I don't think Napoli will be stupid enough to miss the golden opportunity that is coming their way now.
The golden opportunity that has been held by Napoli this season will not be let go, because a good opportunity will never come twice at different times. So for this season it is clear that Napoli will really try not to make mistakes like before in order to get the Scudetto this season. There are a lot of teams in Serie A who are trying to catch up on points from Napoli who are currently leading the table and I think Napoli are very much aware of that now and obviously will always avoid making the slightest mistake this season.Jump to:
