This is a transfer we never thought of seeing some day, after a long time outside, Balotelli is currently on the verge of joining a Serie A club which is another competitive league again but this comes with a lot of burden knowing fully that the club interested in him are currently performing poorly and enough will be on him as the last hope for the failing team. Genoa who are 18th on the league table, having 1 win for all 7 matches played and 4 losses, this shows that the team is looking for a player who can best save them from this mess, alone not considering his age, the club continues to be interested. I hope this comes to a conclusion and the results are met following the signing of this player.
Oh wow it’s been a very long time I heard about the great Mario Ballotelli famously known for his printed shirt celebration “why always me”. Manchester City supporters can relate to this. It will be really nice to watch him compete at top level again. I want to see if he still got that physicality, balance and technique go score many goals. His addition will definitely give Genoa a boost and entertainment to those supporting the Seria A league. I hope his attitude has improved and he is more calm now.

There is no excuse for Roma while playing this poorly. They gambled by sacking De Rossi in such a short time and now look what's happened...

You just can't reach success by replacing your coach very often. That's a fact. Maybe one can say "Then how is Napoli doing this good recently?".

It still took them a very long time to find the right coach while changing them that often. Besides the one they have signed at the end is Conte.  Grin

It was a disappointing result on the part of Roma. This was definitely not the result they had wanted because they played very well and dominated the game. Roma deserved to win the game but Monza were able to get a goal back quickly after falling behind to equalize few minutes after. Roma should have defended their one goal lead and priorities getting all three points from the game.

Roma have 2 wins in the whole season (and one of them was over Venice). It is clear that Monza is an outsider and Roma should have taken 3 points (since if you don't take them here, then where to take them at all) but still it was an away game and a draw is not the worst result.
By the way, in the next round Roma plays with Inter, a draw would be a good result here  Grin

Having a great goalkeeper will definitely help Fiorentina without a doubt, but to what extend? I mean we all know they are not going to be winners of the league, we know they won't even be in top four, so what they could get when they could have a result like this? They may have a player which is way above their league but they are not getting any benefit from this at all, we are seeing things change a bit and can't move this to any direction at all. We need to make sure things are looking as good as we can get.

In the end, we are going to see what we are seeing not make a big change, so this is why we believe Fiorentina will not have a great season, because one player can't change much about a team all together.
Currently, Fiorentina may have a very great and very experienced goalkeeper, namely De Gea. But that won't make Fiorentina a harder team to beat. because basically one player can't change everything. But it takes everyone on the team to make a club thrive and become stronger. I think the role of the coach is much more needed to maximize the potential that exists in every player a club has. We saw that Bologna managed to get a ticket to the UCL last season thanks to their talented coach, Motta. Even last season, Bologna's squad depth was not as good as Napoli and Roma. But Bologna managed to be better than Roma and Napoli last season thanks to their coach. And I think Fiorentina could actually be better than Bologna if this team could maximize the great potential that exists in every player they have.

The surprising thing about the current standings is that only Venezia, as a team that has just been promoted back to Serie A, is still in the relegation zone. Meanwhile, Como and Parma, which are also teams that have just been promoted to Serie A, are currently able to avoid the relegation zone. Which indicates that these two teams are much better prepared for the competition in Serie A. Meanwhile, Venezia doesn't seem like they are ready for the tough competition in Serie A. But playing in Serie A will be a valuable experience for them.

Monza's performance so far this season has surprised me a lot. With the way they finished last season, I thought they would continue like that this season, but unfortunately, they have not been able to win any game in their first seven matches. All doesn't look lost though because they look like a team that will find their rhythm later on and manage to avoid relegation.

Como is another team I'm rooting for because of Fabregas. They play good football and they know how to score goals, but their problem is, they concede too much. There has not been any game where they did not concede at least a goal. If a team is going to concede that much, then they should be ready to outscore their opponents. Como obviously cant outscore every opponent, so they need to learn how to be better defensively and not concede goals anyhow. If they don't work on that they might see themselves in difficult position later on.

Very big fail for the juventus, nobody expect. (i already, i have lost the bet)

Other game start now , i bet napoli-torino and palermo (napoli score a gol later only 1 minutes).

Juventus Last game against Cagliari was disappointing to me for them to have draw in the game and also lost one of their players to a red card. I begin to wonder if the club was really ready to make big moves this season with the current inconsistency the club is suffering from. Their game also against Leipzig was another red card on them even though they won the match with a goal difference in the Champions league game.

This Juventus is much better than what we saw in last season I can see they are improving with their new coach Motta, However, I was hoping to see Juventus hiring Conte for their team, and maybe by Conte returning to Juventus they could have a better situation with this coach because he is familiar with the atmosphere in Juventus and this can be helpful for them.
Now they got a draw against Cagliari which is still not too bad because they are still in third place in the league.

Antonio Conte brought great success to Juventus from 2012 to 2014. At that time, Conte made Juventus win the title in Serie A for 3 consecutive seasons. And that is a big record that is difficult for other teams to follow to this day. But for now I feel Thiago Motta should also be able to bring Juventus to better results. although recently Juventus seems to have returned to the same problem as last season. Where they get more draws again. Even though at the start of the season this team looked like a team that was ready to win every match. Last season, Juventus was also one of the teams that achieved the most draws. And I would be surprised if this season with a different coach we see Juventus again achieve many draws. I think there is something wrong there. Because if Juventus returns to its best performance, I think this team can even win the title again. Thiago Motta may not have much experience and is different from Conte, but this young coach is very reliable.

It is true that Juventus cannot be said to be stable because they still end many match with draw, but it should be noted that all the draws that have been obtained also give them points to maintain the difference with several team above them, this is much better than several defeats. [...]

A draw is better than a loss, but Juventus is still Juventus, they are a strong team in Serie A who should not get a draw against teams like Cagliari & Empoli. If they don't change what they should have, we won't see them in the top standings anymore, their next match will also be a decider because both teams have the same points in the standings.

In the prime days of Balotelli, i would say this is going to be a very beneficial and productive one for Genoa but now i don't know how well he's been doing and hopefully he turns out well for them so they get the best off this move they are about to make. Balotelli is an experienced player who long before now has been doing excellently well and now joining a team as this, its expected of him to get this team to their best as they are currently suffering some sort of decline but i don't see it as very okay for the team to make this move with the intention of dependency as he may not give they as expected considering his age.

Let's look at the bottom of the Serie A standings until week 7. Venezia, Monza and Genoa are the clubs currently at the bottom with only 4 and 5 points, Genoa actually has the same points as Lecce who is above them, but Lecce is superior in goal productivity. Monza is the only club that has never won until week 7, they only got 4 draws and 3 defeats. Genoa is the club that has conceded the most goals with 15 goals that have been scored against them. While Venezia is a club that has just felt the atmosphere of Serie A this season (correct me if I'm wrong). It seems like they are not ready to compete fiercely. However, there are still many opportunities to improve it, so that they can slowly enter the safe zone.

Genoa is not too much of strong team but in their last match with Bologna they defeated them which is giving me some confidence to believe that Genoa is also going to win in their next fixture expected to hold on 19th of this month. Genoa can actually fuck up even while playing at home, that's why I don't even want to put so much confidence in them. What do you guys think about their next match?
Genoa's defense is very weak and that is why they have conceded as many as 15 goals in 7 matches. Genoa are the first team to concede 15 goals so far this season in Serie A and they are the weakest in defense compared to the other 19 teams. The next match is against Bologna at home, but Genoa is not the favorite.

Bologna, who has currently collected 8 points from 7 matches, is certainly expected to be better than Genoa. But I don't think this is an interesting match to look forward to, unless they are fans of one of these clubs. Genoa are clearly bad even at home, while Bologna's win looks like it could be considered.

I do agree with what you have said but if Genoa put some efforts, they could actually use the fact that they are playing at home as an advantage to also win the match. That's why I said I don't want to put too much hope in them because if I predict Bologna to win, Genoa might win and if I pick home to win, they might just fuck up too. Although, I do expect Genoa to win because they must have had enough training before that match.

6 AC Milan 11   
7 Torino 11

This is the leaderboard so far.
The first team is Napoli with 16 points followed by Inter.

The median of the point done by these teams is very low, considering 7 games done and only 16-14 points done.

The projection so far is winning the league with 80 point ish, and this is absurdly low for the past years.

However, there are still many opportunities to improve it, so that they can slowly enter the safe zone.

The three promoted teams this season are Parma, Como and Venezia but yes, the reality is that so far only Venezia cannot compete well and strongly in Serie A. Because if we compare between the three promoted teams, then of course Venezia is the one who gets bad results compared to other promoted teams such as Parma and Como. But about Monza, basically I personally am still very careful when betting on top teams and playing against Monza because at least, Monza has a surprise at least for the last two seasons in Serie A, coming as a promotion team but Monza managed to play well  when playing against top teams in the previous two seasons.

But this season, Monza are in the relegation zone and that's certainly a downgrade for Monza if I compare it to the previous two seasons. Because anyway,Monza also managed to finish in the middle of the table in the last two seasons and it was a good result for a promoted team but  unfortunately, Monza still has to rise in this season ofcourse to avoid relegation. The league is still long,  so there are still many opportunities for them to improve their  performance to stay away from the relegation zone.

Fiorentina are lucky enough to have the Spaniard in the club  making back to back brilliant saves. We are talking about a goalkeeper that have been in Manchester United for longterm, did his best to sealed most winnings for Manchester United and keeping clean sheets but today, the Red Devils have completely becomes some random average club, can't even get hold of 5 straight cleansheet not to talk unbeaten run. David De Gea have been positive and improving all round when it comes to his performance. He's not reluctant because after exiting Old Trafford, everyone thought his career have ended but look at him today, he's making brilliant saves and knows how to handled top oppositions when he faced them.
Definitely a great chance for them. Normally if what United did and what De Gea did last season didn't happen, then they wouldn't have him. But, United didn't sign De Gea back and got a worse goalkeeper, and also De Gea assumed he would be wanted by many big clubs and he wasn't.

I felt like he would have been perfect for Real Madrid, because he is still young enough and he would replace Courtois very well when he is injured, that dude has been missing last season and so far this season, I believe De Gea would have been much better for the time being, and because of this we should be considering how they could do a better job.

So, when a player like this who could have been a great choice for Real Madrid, ends up being at Fiorentina, that is definitely a great deal for them without a doubt. They are not paying him all that much and they got a goalkeeper who is much better than anyone they could have dreamed of, a marvellous situation without a doubt in the end.

I think many people out there also lost a lot of bets because they were more in favor of Juventus winning this match, I myself also lost. That's the risk. Football always gives us surprises, and sometimes we get carried away by the team we support. It is true that teams from Serie A always disappoint us in terms of betting. so it's better to avoid betting on Serie A teams. Lol

But anyway this draw is quite good for Juventus especially as you said Cagliari is quite tough to face because they always put up resistance and Juventus is still adapting to Motta. That also has to be seen at least since Motta was trained, Juventus has improved a lot in dribbling the ball, Juventus looks strong, they just lack a clinical striker. That's what Motta has to fix in the next match, currently the Serie A team that has never lost is only Juventus.

yes dear, for example i lost my bet also because of this match
I honestly expected Juventus to win
However, i too, underestimated Cagliari who remain a really difficult team to face, very complex and in fact Juventus drew a draw with them,
so Thiago Motta know this
Juventus started the season winning matches but all of a sudden they started having problems of winning matches easily. Cagliari is a club that should not be underestimated because no club came to play in Seria A. I expected Juventus to win the game but I got disappointed at the end.

Juventus needs to put themselves back to form because this season will not be an easy one. Napoli is also in the title race and it was a narrow escape for Juventus last season to qualify for UCL. Much surprises will be seen this season.

The match between Roma and the Monza was really surprising match to me because i was not expecting that Monza can able to equalize back all my expectations is that they Roma can secure that 1 goal to end the match, but they refuse to maintain their consistent that’s why the it happened, because the Roma dominated the entire match and the possession right for the first half instead of the to hold their position well to make them win match but they didn’t.

This season Roma have also improved their performance small unlike their last season performances since I can see that they are able to win three matches out of the four matches, because last they make an very poorly performances but this their last match against Monza I was having hope that they can scored more than on goal, but Monza later lead the match to draw.
It was a disappointing result on the part of Roma. This was definitely not the result they had wanted because they played very well and dominated the game. Roma deserved to win the game but Monza were able to get a goal back quickly after falling behind to equalize few minutes after. Roma should have defended their one goal lead and priorities getting all three points from the game.
Roma deserved to win but Monza also deserved to score when the Roma defenders were not focused, maybe they thought 1 goal was enough but the carelessness of the back line became a nightmare. Being held to a draw by Monza is clearly very detrimental, because statistically Roma dominate and have sharp strikers. There are not many opportunities for Monza players but when there are opportunities, they can be utilised well. Dovbyk has contributed 3 goals in 7 matches with Roma but that is not enough considering Roma's position which should be with 3 points can immediately rise to 6th place unfortunately failed.

Fiorentina are really lucky to have a goalkeeper like David De Gea who still has good reflexes to block the ball from any direction and that has been proven by their opponent's penalty kicks so it really is a perfect stroke of luck for Fiorentina this season. I am also quite sure that Manchester United fans really miss having a goalkeeper like David De Gea back in their squad that they love, but unfortunately at the moment it is always quite difficult to find an experienced goalkeeper like David De Gea in a team that is in dismal form.

We can't really blame Manchester united for not renewing the goal stopper's contract when it got expired in 2023 because David De Gea stayed in the club since 2011 till 2023 so he really spent so much time at united but what gave me some concern was why an experienced goal keeper like David De Gea stayed about a year out of contract before Fiorentina signed him, was it that other top European teams didn't see him capable enough to become their goal keeper? i keep wondering. Fiorentina just got the goal keeper at a very affordable gross salary of €3 million a year, am happy he got the contract because he will be visible for other clubs to sign him after his contract expires with Fiorentina except the club will want to renew his contract.

David De Gea has managed to show great performances with Fiorentina in their last few matches, his sharp reflexes and his ability to stem the opponent's attack obviously gives a huge advantage to the current Fiorentina squad, I think with his current performance of course Manchester United fans will miss him very much under their goal, especially when Manchester United dont have the stability of the team and a  players who are able to lead their squad has been doing well so far after De Gea was dumped by Ten Hag, De Gea previously spent time without a club after he was sacked in 2023 and I think why De Gea didn't get the team immediately after his sacking, may be due to the fierce competition in the goalkeeper position, where many big clubs already have a top goalkeeper they trust, in addition, maybe the age factor, the difficulty of adapting to the new team after 13 years with the Red Devils and a large salary may be the reason why he was reluctant to be recruited by other teams at that time.

Juventus have never lost so far, although it cannot be denied that they have received too many draws. Looking at their statistics in each match, Motta must pay attention to their attack line. Many opportunities are created, but not very effective, less clinical in finishing, this improvement must be done immediately, because for defense so far Juventus is very solid from 7 matches they have only conceded 1 goal. I believe if Motta can polish these shortcomings in the future, Juve will be at the top for a long time or most likely win the scudetto.

I hope this comes to a conclusion and the results are met following the signing of this player.

I would expect him to sign for a Saudi team from now on normally but it seems like he still doesn't have such plan. But okay, I would be glad to see him back in the Serie A. He wouldn't make much impact undoubtedly though. But he had many years of his career in this league.  Smiley  Maybe he would even retire here who knows... By the way don't get confused with his statistics in the Turkish league. There is a huge quality gap.



Napoli move on determinedly by leading the standings. Conte has really made a big difference already.  Wink  While Juventus are having a thing with the draws, Inter also benefited from the situation.

Lautaro is still quite silent in the Serie A... I hope he gets over this period ASAP.
