Unbeaten when you're not winning, how's that making them the most interesting club. They're losing two points for every game that they draw and if the continue like this, they won't even qualify for champions league football next season. I'm disappointed at juventus this season and not impressed with how they're playing. If there's any club that you should be impressed by their position is Napoli. They sold their best striker and got Lukaku. Hired a new manager and now top of the league. Many people wrote them off this season that they're not going to be in the title contest but they're now the ones leading the competition and might win it with the way they're playing.

I really agree with you, Juventus cannot be expected if they continue to play like this from 12 matches Juventus draw 6 times this means that Juventus have lost 12 points, of course it's not the right way to compete in the top 4 while their competitors continue to collect points from every game. Juventus must be able to get out of this situation, one of the ways that can be taken is to bring in new players in the next transfer window, I see their goals activities low and only rely on Dušan Vlahović so it needs an increase in attack lines. There are indeed obstacles in the next transfer window because not many players are available in the middle of the season and usually the contract of the players expired at the end of the season.

Jauventus is the most interesting this season, even though they are in 6th position, they are unbeaten so far.

Juventus is one of the most boring teams this season, they are again back to the former strategy of doing just enough to win, playing games of attrition with their adversaries, and always clinging to results, their whole strategy and they are not the only ones trying it is simply to get one more goal than the adversaries or at last not get one scored.

Besides, the whole thing doesn't pay off, 3 draws get you 3 points, and one loss and two wins get you 6, that's why Juventus is 6th right now.

I'll explain to you why I think this: 1) Juventus is not a stable team at the moment, they have changed coach and structure 2) Juventus has enormous problems in attack, their department is finally worse 3) their coach has little experience and familiarity with the big teams

And you can apply the same thing to most of the other teams, there is no team without problems in the league, and the result and the standings with just a 2-point difference for 6 places shows it!

Of course this is not bad, even with a record like that they will be motivated again to maintain the record. The next match they will face AC Milan who are below them, of course this match will be fierce. Can Juventus extend their unbeaten record. Let's just wait for this match after the international break.

According to latest,  Victor Lindelof may come in Italy in January to Juventus.
With the new and huge injury, they may call a young player from second team for the moment and take 1-2 players in January.

At least this is waht they are saying today, next game it will be against Milan and they will have no defenders in the bench.

Juventus lost Bremer and Juan Cabal even they were potentially will be absense until this season over so indeed currently Juventus is lack of defender players and this January Juventus should be bought more players on that position to strengthen their squad and if this rumour is true i think the possibility for Juventus to gets Victor Lindelof from Manchester United is very wide open this because his contract will be expired on June 2025 so Juventus will gets Lindelof with cheap price besides that currently Manchester United is under new manager Ruben Amorim so most likely Lindelof will not be included in Amorim's plans for next season

Currently, rankings from 1 to 6 do not have a big difference. And only 2 points different. So Juventus, which is currently ranked 6th, could also get a better ranking if the other top ranked teams make mistakes and lose points. With the condition that Juventus must get full points. No team has dominated so far. And Juventus isn't that bad either. They haven't even lost this season. And whether we realize it or not, we know that only Juventus has yet to experience defeat in Serie A this season. So we really can't say that Juventus played badly. Because they're just a little less consistent. But so far Juventus have always managed to avoid defeat.
This season's Serie A is more interesting than last season, all teams in the top 6 have the opportunity to win the trophy or even the top 7 because the points difference is not too far apart. This thin point difference certainly makes the league more competitive and each team has the same spirit to maintain its consistency, especially since the league is still very long, of course the standings will definitely change.

The league is very wide open for any club to win it, especially the clubs on top six of the table. I think Napoli and Inter needs to be very strong this season and make sure that they are consistent enough with their matches in order for them to have hope of winning the league this season. Milan is there, and these two teams Atalanta and Fiorentina, I don't know if in the long run, they will not be able to make it but their performance looks promising.
The gap between the points at the top of the standings is almost without a gap, Napoli who is in first place is only 1 point away from Atalanta who has the same points as 4 other teams, Fiorentina, Inter Milan and Lazio, and they are also only 1 point away from the team in 6th place occupied by Juventus. This is a very tight gap and this can change in just one match, even a draw will change their position in the standings. There are still a lot of matches, now we are only in week 12, that means there are still many matches left. I am very happy when I see competition like this, because it makes the league more interesting to follow.

Napoli last 2 matches are considered very detrimental to losing because they lost 3 points from Atalanta and shared points with Inter making the points difference in the standings thin. If you look at the current status there are 4 clubs that have collected 25 points namely Atalanta, Fiorentina, Inter, and Lazio so that Napoli can be pulled from the top of the standings at any time if they lose 3 more points. Have Napoli's players run out of gas to step on the gas? Lukaku, who was made the main striker, did not score a goal in his last 2 matches.
What you are pointing at regarding Lukaku in an important thing to be considered because a point is not enough for them to sit on the top of the table, among the top fivein the table Napoli are the only one with a less goals, this alone show that they can't hold that place for a long time if they don't have a very strong striker that can give them more goals, I like Lukaku but I think he is not in the right position to lead the team, he's old and they shouldn't depend on him to do all the work, losing against atalanta with almost 3 goals was a total disgrace because it clear that even their defence line are also having issues not only the strikers and if this can't be fix then the will lose the top.
With the current stand on the table I don't think Napoli would be staying longer at the top because the rest of clubs will come after them and because the points difference isn't much it would also be easy for Napoli to loose their place to teams like Juventus and inter Milan who are very close to Napoli in terms of points and goal differences so its left Napoli to continue winning if they must stay at the top or risk loosing their place whenever they drop points, it's going to be a very tight race i guess and i think it is too early to predict who might the scudetto this season.

I think  Napoli full strength football team need to focus on their weaknesses because their last two matches performance is very bad. In second last match, they lose the match by 3-0 and that kind of lose we did not expect by  Napoli team.  Napoli team has lose their confidence in last matches and if they could not win next matches then they will lose their position and Atalanta will get their position because they won last 5 matches abc their players are in full form . Napoli team played last match against Inter Milan and they could not win this match and that is bad sign by Napoli team and they have to work on their weak points.
Napoli recent games have been very worrisome especially their 3-0 loss which was shocking setback. Their confidence is now shaken putting their position at risk. Atalanta five game winning streak is major threat as they could surpass Napoli if they do not improve quickly. Tie against Inter Milan adds to Napoli worries. To regain momentum Napoli must fix their weaknesses and rebuild confidence and find consistency. Their coach needs to change strategy and motivate players and turn season around. Next games are critical so let's see what will Napoli do in that matches.
Napoli football full strength team will play next match against Roma full strength football team. In my opinion, Napoli team is still favorite for that match. No doubt that lose their rhythm in last few matches but we know that they can get good rhythm by winning with margin against that team. Head to head record is also in the favour of Napoli team because they won 2 matches out of 5 matches and 2 were draw matches between these two teams and 1 match won by Roma team . Roma full strength team can do good come back by doing  3 goals in this match because that is game and any team can play well in any match and these players can get good momentum after this match.

I agree with you. Looking at the current position Juventus is not in the top 3 but every team in 2-5 has 25 points and Juventus has 24 points where Napoli is in first place with 26 points. This shows that anything can still happen. The ranking will change in every match. I think Juventus still has a chance to be champions. I think even all the teams in the top 7 currently still have a chance to be champions. This season Napoli has been impressive but Inter Milan and Juventus are still solid like last season. AC Milan is quite bad with 3 defeats but as you said, the season is still long. I think we have to wait until half of the season to see who has the biggest chance to get the scudetto.
Milan has started to recover. Considering this, they are still one of the important championship candidates in the Italian league. In the Italian league, each team seems to be equal in strength. There is a battle of equal powers in the league this year. Napoli and Inter are the teams I think of for the championship, but each team still has a chance to become champion because the points are very close to each other.
The league is very wide open for any club to win it, especially the clubs on top six of the table. I think Napoli and Inter needs to be very strong this season and make sure that they are consistent enough with their matches in order for them to have hope of winning the league this season. Milan is there, and these two teams Atalanta and Fiorentina, I don't know if in the long run, they will not be able to make it but their performance looks promising.

If you assume Juventus are out of the running for the Scudetto, you'd be wrong. Are you not paying attention to the current points tally? Although Juventus are currently in sixth place but in reality Juventus and Napoli only have a two-point gap. Thus, Juventus are still in the race  for the Scudetto this season, don't just fixate on their position in the standings but try to pay attention to their points acquisition too, because the reality is that they still have  a  very close points gap.

Also, Juventus is still the only team in Serie A so far that is unbeaten and also, Juventus is still the only team that has conceded the fewest goals so far in Serie A. Thus, Juventus are still doing well although I am also disappointed Juventus are not at the top of the table,  but it doesn't matter because Juventus still have a very big chance to return to the top of the table, the season is still long.

I'll explain to you why I think this: 1) Juventus is not a stable team at the moment, they have changed coach and structure 2) Juventus has enormous problems in attack, their department is finally worse 3) their coach has little experience and familiarity with the big teams
This is why i give a negative outlook for this year, in my opinion they are valid assessments..

The competition between clubs in Serie A this season is very tight compared to what happened last season, so every team is very wary of losing points in every match they play, so I think that is also what conte is doing now to maintain his team position at the top of the Serie A standings, the tactics and strategies that conte applies when facing Intermilan are very appropriate,  because I think he is well aware of the potential danger that Napoli can get if they play too aggressively and openly like when facing other teams previously, Inter is their strongest rival in the Scudetto competition, so targeting at least 1 point at inter home could be a wise move to maintain their position at the top of the Serie A standings.
Napoli, Atalanta, Fiorentina and Inter Milan are contending for the scudetto this season, leading to terrific atmosphere in Italy football. The Seria A standing keeps everyone in tense because we're yet to decides the pre-eminent rivals for the scudetto this season. Napoli ranking first on the table with just topping other oppositions with a point difference, that doesn't settle the difference if you ask me. Antonio Conte would do more handling tasks because the title race is on and he possess the odds to beat it. This is precisely what I'm talking about, a close range competition that would determines the fierce actions of these elite clubs. As it stands, Napoli remained promising to lift the scudetto this season, they can do it but they just have to sealed the top rank in the meantime.

However, in the end both teams had to be satisfied with the draw they got from the match. Sharing points keeps Napoli safe in first position. And Inter Milan must be patient because they cannot overtake Napoli at this time. I expected this result because I think these two teams have almost the same performance this season. Napoli under Conte's coaching is really growing rapidly again. Their strength really goes back to the Spalletti era. It's just that I still feel that the aggressiveness of Napoli's attacks recently has weakened a bit. they became more defensive and made more careful moves. But I'm sure Conte knows that they have to do that, especially in a tough match against a strong team like Inter Milan.

But it is very interesting to see the points gained in the current Serie A standings. We see this very tight competition. I think this Serie A will not be boring at all. We can see that all the teams in the top 5 seem to have a chance to overtake Napoli.

This is Conte's tactic, he always plays more cautiously against stronger opponents, and I had no doubt that they would play the same way at Giuseppe Meazza, because it would be difficult to beat Inter away, and it was reasonable to play a draw and stay at the top of the table. It is surprising how close the teams are after 12 rounds, from sixth place, where Juventus is, to Inter, which is leading by only two points, every round can change everything.

This is what makes serie A interesting and this is what I expect competitive competition between the top teams that currently have not given any signs of which team will lead at the end of this season.
The position of the 6 teams that are currently in the top 6 positions are really maintaining their points and can always catch up on points such as Napoli who do not have a very busy schedule can take advantage of this condition. So they can be at the top of the standings while several other teams such as Juventus and Inter must really maintain their performance conditions.

And regarding Juventus performance which has not yet suffered a defeat, actually it is not a performance but Juventus needs more qualified attacking players. So Juventus currently only has a strong defense but in terms of the attack line is a little weak.

Juventus is not without a chance when they face Milan. They could have a chance to win. We saw how Juventus held Inter to a draw with a fairly large score. Inter has a better performance than Milan at the moment. I think Juventus has a chance to win even though they have to try very hard because, of course, Milan will not want to lose and increase their losses this season. Milan plays inconsistently. They can be strong against strong teams but become less good when facing teams that are not so favored. If Juventus get more chances, I think they can win.
Inter Milan are stronger than AC Milan in this season with their performances so far and if Juventus could play a fair match that ended as 4 - 4 draw with Inter Milan, they can do it better when facing with AC Milan.

AC Milan are 5 points less than Juventus but they have one match as they only played 11 matches so far, and Juventus already played 12 matches. If AC Milan win that match, they will have only 2 points less than Juventus and their direct match will be a good opportunity for AC Milan to surpass Juventus in Serie A. AC Milan and Juventus are inconsistently with their performances which make their direct match more unpredictable.

Yes, that's right, from what we see in the standings, the points for positions 1 and 6 are not much different and Juventus who are in position 6 can slowly rise if they win against Milan or one of the 5 clubs above them experiences bad luck in week 13. However, if you look at the opponents of each team, only Juventus will face a tough opponent, and it seems that winning the match is not easy for Thiago Motta's troops, especially since they have to visit AC Milan's headquarters, on the other hand the home team also wants full points to improve their position. I think Juventus will get another draw or the worst possibility is losing for the first time.

In general, Juventus is not far behind the other top teams and we can see this from the number of points owned by Juventus and from the number of points owned by Napoli as the current leader of the standings. Juventus is only two points behind the current leader of the standings and several positions in the top seven of the current standings will certainly tend to change after the matches in the following week. Because currently there are four teams that have scored the same number of points including the points owned by Inter Milan currently where the team is in the top four of the standings.
