Personally, I am quite curious about the difference in Napoli after they hire Conte as the most expensive coach in Serie A. At least, Napoli's target for Conte is to be able to enter the UCL qualification. As for the top 1, Inter still holds its position.

So far Napoli have signed defenders, and they are not top players either.


Napoli can get 100 million euros from Osimhen's sale. But the problem is some teams think Osimhen's price is a bit expensive considering his performance. On the other hand, Conte has worked with Lukaku and it seems that the tactics that Conte will use with Napoli will suit Lukaku's playing style. But Lukaku is old and will only be able to last for one or two seasons. I think why Conte doesn't try to include Osimhen in his strategy. He is still young and still has the potential to be better in the next few seasons.

Juventus has changed their manager maybe but they still couldn't perform the transfer plans in their mind. Motta has a really difficult job to do because of that. My biggest expectation is from Napoli to make difficulties for Inter honestly.
Thiago Motta has done his job well so far he also recruited several players recorded there are already 6 players they brought into their squad this season some they bought some on loan and some took from their academy, Juventus has indeed sold many of their players this summer but they also did not remain silent even though they lost many players, they sorted out players who fit Thiago Motta's characteristics to be brought to the club.

Yes I also see Napoli might make it difficult for Inter Milan and Juventus next season they recruit a manager who has good achievements in Serie A and Napoli players also still consist of the best players so it is likely that Napoli can be better than last season with Antonio Conte's coaching system.

Considering what I have seen in the transfer window so far, I feel a back-to-back title for Inter this season.  Smiley  Inter doesn't need to be that much active in the market but the other top teams should be.

Because they already have a great squad. Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia also are staying for another season as it seems. I don't see any offer for Osimhen because of his high costs. Conte is a special manager and he would know what to do with this power.  Smiley
I think I have similar opinion with you concerning the club that's likely to win the Italian Serie A next season and that's no the current champions if Italy. Inter Milan won the league last season with much points difference and I expected the other top clubs in the league to be very busy in the transfer market this summer but that's not been happening. Juventus, AC Milan and Napoli though have changed their managers, but that doesn't necessarily make much difference if you ask me.

I agree with you. I think Inter Milan will dominate Serie A for the next one or two seasons. This season I still don't see which team will give Inter Milan a tough challenge. AC Milan and Juventus have to rebuild their chemistry and adapt because they have new coaches. There is a chance that the new coach can adapt quickly and increase the chance of winning the scudetto. But it will be very difficult. Atalanta and AS Roma played well last season but I don't think they are worthy of being title contenders with Juventus and AC Milan.
Inter, Milan, Juventus, Atalanta, Napoli and Roma are some of the teams that I hope can compete fiercely for the title. Inter is the most favorite team based on the depth of their squad, but I will not ignore the rise of Juventus or Milan, who also showed good performance last season. Inter has good squad depth to defend its title, but Milan and Juventus should be Inter's two toughest competitors throughout last season.

I can't really expect Atalanta and Napoli and Roma to compete, but these three teams will likely be good too. Napoli were too bad last season, so I would put them in final position as favorites compared to some of the teams above.

I really like their selection of teams, probably if they can do a good job, a team that has been there and almost never returned is Roma, and above all I have very good expectations about Juve, for me they are a team that suffered a lot last season, they did everything they could and managed to earn that 4th place to be in the UCL, so it is fair that they do not make their fans suffer so much anymore, and from the start they can do a good job. I think that is fair, I am also eager to see how Inter comes, Inzaghi always surprises us.

Chelsea given fresh Victor Osimhen transfer hope as Napoli stance outlined



Quote
Chelsea could still complete a transfer for striker Victor Osimhen before the end of the transfer window, but it will depend on Napoli changing their stance on a deal.

The striker has been a name linked with Chelsea for some time and looked set to move on from Napoli this summer. A move is, however, yet to materialise, despite the Italian club confirming an agreement between them and the player.

Osimhen has a £110 million release clause in his contract, but Chelsea would be keen on sorting a loan deal with Napoli. Negotiations between Napoli and Paris Saint-Germain over a potential deal for Osimhen are said to have broken down, potentially opening the door for Chelsea in the final weeks of the window.

According to the Telegraph’s Matt Law, a deal that would see Osimhen arrive at Stamford Bridge on a loan deal before the end of the window can’t be completely ruled out. It will, however, depend on Napoli’s stance softening.

“I know there’s different information around this, but I have been told that Osimhen as a potential loan is not dead,” he said on the London is Blue podcast. “If at any stage Napoli show a willingness to loan Osimhen other than sell him, Chelsea will look at it.

If this is the only thing, then Napoli's strength will not change drastically, unless Conte can really optimize the performance of every player from the old squad as optimally as possible.

Atalanta and Roma have improved their squads but they are still not good enough to compete with Inter. As for Napoli, they spent a lot of money after hiring Conte, he has a lot of experience in Serie A. I would not hesitate to hope that he will revive Napoli to compete on equal terms with Inter. Agreed on the condition that Conte must retain key players such as Victor Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. and adding quality contracts, will be the key for Conte to easily help Napoli regain its lost position. I believe in the talent of coach Conte.

And don't forget Juventus, they will be in the title race. Next season I can predict a three-horse race for the Scudetto. Inter will no longer be alone on the road to the championship like last season.

Conte is very much experienced in Serie A and we should trust this coach while he is working for Napoli but I was personally hoping to see Cojnte come back and work in Juventus instead of other teams in this league. We can't forget how well Juventus performed while Conte was working in this team. Juventus hired Motta and started working with this coach but now I'm not sure if Motta's plan can even help Juventus to have better performance or not because he has been making huge changes in Juventus since he joined this team.

I'm sure Inter Milan can show the same performance as last season when they got ez win for the scudetto. Juventus and Milan have new coaches. They need time to build chemistry with their players.
I think it can't be done in a short time, and most probably they need more than a season to have good chemistry.

Inter Milan have really became very strong as they've been able to win the Scudetto twice in the last four seasons after Juventus dominated the title for consecutive 9 seasons between 2011/2012  season till 2019/2020 so I believe it is the time of Inter Milan to also dominate as well because they have got a good and strong squad to achieve that, I don't think any team in the Serie A can stop Inter Milan from winning their second consecutive title this season. I see a very concrete squad in Inter Milan so they can still achieve winning the Scudetto just like they won last season because with the speed they were last season to the extent that they even won the league when there were still few matches to go make me to have confidence that they gonna continue in same energy this season. Between Juventus, Atalanta, AS Roma, Napoli and AC Milan I don't see any of them that can match up the pressure of Inter Milan.

The defeat against Al Ittihad is not surprising for us if we see that the squad that Inzaghi fielded in that match was not at full strength, in fact this defeat has will become a reference for Inzaghi to improve every weakness his squad has, like as he said to the media after the match was over, So the defeat against Al Ittihad should not make us doubt what they can do next season in Serie A,  In my opinion, this defeat should no make Intermilan lose their status as one of the favorite teams to be able to win the Scudetto again next season, especially now Intermilan they are still trying to improve the quality of the squad they have, so by looking at the weaknesses of the squad in that the match, of course Inzaghi knows which positions currently need to improvement ahead of next season's league.

To be honest I expected such a result. But my prediction was that Ittihad Jeddah will win by 2-1 or 3-2. But Ittihad won 2-0. Inter Milan could not score a single goal in this match. I expected at least one goal from Inter Milan.

I expected Ittihad to win this match. Because Ittihad's target was to win this match. And to prove their capabilities to the world. Ittihad wants to prove that the Saudi League is improving day by day. Moreover, ittihad's squad was also quite strong. Talented players like Benzema, Kante, Fabinho were in itihad squad. On the other hand, Inter Milan considered this match only a friendly match. Inter Milan probably didn't have a target that Inter Milan had to win in the match. But I will say that it cannot be denied that the performance of Ittihad jeddah players was very good in this match. Every attack by Ittihad players was very strong. This team has really improved.

Underestimate- nothing
We have the likes of AC Milan who came second in the standings last season, they can also give a tough time to Inter Milan and not just Juventus given them a tough time always. At the end of the last season, we saw clubs like Atalanta that finished in the top four of the table and also teams like Bologna who finished after them and book a spot in the champions league. If they can perform as much better as they did in the last season, they would make the competition more interesting and open to winning at anytime. Chiesa is a valuable player to Juventus and if he stays, it’ll add to their quality performance next season but even though he doesn’t, Juventus can still farewell without him and be a league contender and also do well in the champions league next season.

They came second on the table and even the margin between inter Milan and AC Milan is much it is now looking as if they are just privilege to have won the second position, because damn that number is huge and that of ac Milan and Juventus is just like four points. The only person they will be able to give tough time will not be more that Juventus that point alone should have drawn a line that they are not on the same level. Only if they improve that way they will be able to defeat inter Milan. There are more serious clubs in serie A that needs to play in more leagues. Bologna Finish 5th position was a very good attempt because their are other clubs that finished beneath them so since the competition is open to everyone to win, since they have gotten more experience this past season, it won't be easy if any club should lose a player now. Be things are looking as if this season is going to be different. Especially those clubs that made to top five will want to do everything possible to keep their position in the league.

There were some rumors about Federico Chiesa and this player was about to leave we saw the news about Federico Chiesa leaving Juventus because Motta doesn't want to have this payer anymore in Juventus,
But it seems everything is compilated and now Federico Chiesa doesn't want to leave the team and he wants to stay there in Juventus. He recently posted something about Juventus and himself wearing the shirt of his team. Federico Chiesa's agent was recently in London and we were expecting to see Federico Chiesa playing for Chelsea and Tottenham in the next season. But considering the post he published he wants to stay for a longer time.
It happens alot when a new manager is being appointed, some players have to face similar situations of not being part of the coach’s plans just as it happened to Juan Mata when he was at Chelsea, Mourinho was appointed and declared that Mata was not a player he wants to work with even though Mata was Chelsea’s best player in the previous season. Same thing happened to Gallagher, he has been sold now because Maresca said he is not part of his plans.

It doesn’t matter how good you are every coach has their different philosophy and the kind of players that suit their playing styles differs, if Motta says he is not part of his plans then he should look for another team to prevent being left out on the bench. He is a good player so finding a team wouldn’t be much of a problem at all. If he is willing tk stay on the bench then it is fine it’s his decision to make after all but staying on the bench will make his value depreciate and also his performance.

In fact, even though Milan managed to have good results in pre-season matches, but it is still not a guarantee that Milan will be able to consistently compete for the Scudetto next season. After all, Juventus was previously predicted to have a good performance because they had a coach who was quite impressive last season with Bologna, but in reality this is still not a definite result for winning the Scudetto.

But at least, because they have good transfers from coaches and players, then Milan and Juventus will of course still have a good chance. Indeed, it will take time to create good chemistry in the team, but because they are experienced players and coaches then at least it will not be difficult for them to create a team with good quality performance too. Interesting of course, because I personally hope that Serie A will have other teams that can win trophies and it won't always be about Inter.

While other people are focused on discussing AC Milan, which has competed in pre-season against strong European teams such as Man City, Real Madrid and Barcelona. And AC Milan did get positive results. Which makes everyone appreciate AC Milan. But I think we also need to look at Inter Milan, who just experienced their first defeat in a pre-season match. And what was surprising was that Inter Milan lost to one of the clubs from the Saudi Pro League, namely Al-ittihad, with a score of 0-2. And what surprised me about this match was that one of Al-ittihad's new players who was brought in from Aston Villa actually scored 2 goals in that match. Inter Milan did not play seriously in this match because they continued to rotate players between the first and second tier. But Al-ittihad also did the same thing except for Benzema who played the full game.

This doesn't particularly worry me, they are still friendly matches where experiments are done and they don't matter that much.
Obviously if you don't take advantage of these opportunities to try strange things or different formations, you've missed an opportunity because during matches where you have to score points, you can't joke.

Okay guys, as has been revealed if we will be able to see De Gea back on the field and of course this will be his new adventure with Fiorentina. Smiley

I think De Gea is starting to get bored because he spent his days for the past year without ever feeling the match and since leaving Manchester United he has had a hard time getting the team he wants. We know that before leaving Manchester United he received the golden glove award.

Fiorentina's offer must be very powerful to be able to sign him and of course the salary issue has been discussed well between the two parties. I just hope De Gea can perform well again and keep Fiorentina's goal from conceding. His experience will be very much needed and I hope Fiorentina can be a comfortable home for him.
It's been too long since De Gea rested and didn't have a team after he was kicked out of the Manchester United squad last season. Now hopefully a new journey and new experiences can be obtained in Serie A with Fiorentina. I myself will not be so quick to say that he will be in his best game, because with a long rest of course it will affect his game a little, so he needs time to adapt, especially this will also be a new adventure for him. One of the reasons why De Gea doesn't have a team is because he still wants to be in Europe and also defend big teams, of course that's something difficult because the competition is with younger players. I hope I can see his brilliant performance and he can be the main choice to play. He is one of the goalkeepers who has very good abilities, even though it's quite strange when Manchester United kicked him out like that.
De Gea was a good goalie way back but as time passes by his performance declined and United also had some defensive errors which they failed to tackle and thought that De Gea was their problem which was why the kicked him out. That was not true because even after De Gea left, Onana conceived a lot of goals due to poor defense.

De Gea will use this opportunity to put himself back in form while in Florentina so that he can make a difference there and stay for long so that he does not end up not having a club for the second time. He is a good and will give his best.

Chiesa's post about Juventus is a classic emotional move, but the situation stinks of bad strategy. If Motta doesn't see him fitting into the system, Chiesa's looking at a long season on the bench, and that's career suicide for a player of his caliber

Loyalty is great, but this is professional sports, not a family reunion. Chiesa needs to play, and if that means moving to a club where his skills are valued - Chelsea, Tottenham, wherever - then that's the move

Juventus fans might love him, but watching a talent like Chiesa rot on the bench is an insult to the game itself. He's got too much potential to waste

The situation is seriously not how I would love it to work out, first of all, i remember this same player been the hot topic of discussion seasons ago and many clubs wanted him and notably English clubs too like Arsenal but is injury crisis actually ruined many things for him. Right now he is wanted out by the club, because he doesn’t fit into the managers plans, it is not bad to be outta of the managers favour but the club should look for a way to offload him and other out of favoured players not to throw them under the bus like they are doing now.

Chiesa seems calm because he has a contract with the club and he wants to see out that contract which is not bad but for him not been liked by the manager might be a very big obstacle for him, my advice is his agent should just look for another club for him maybe a loan move if a permanent one is looking hard so that he can play

Great news for lovers of quality football and even greater news for fans of the goalkeeping prowess of David De Gea. Before the report that David De Gea might possibly join Fiorentina this summer broke out, I was thinking the Spanish goalie was not gonna play professional football again after he failed to join another club one year after he left Manchester United. Though David De Gea haven't been playing professional football in the last one year, I have no doubt that he was still going to be good signing for Fiorentina. De Gea isn't just an experienced goalkeeper but one of the best we've seen in the English Premier League in last two decades and I hope he continues to perform greatly with his new club Fiorentina.
