Actually, Juventus has shown good progress, it's just that they still have problems with their consistency this season, so they can't compete any more closely. At the beginning of the season they performed better, but from the middle of the season until towards the end of the season they showed a decline and this is something they have to quickly evaluate so that next season they don't experience the same thing again.
Juventus is one of the big teams in Serie A, they have achieved glory here. However, because of the existing problems they have to decline, one of the problems they face is because they have to accept sanctions. This will indirectly drain their morality and mentality. But I'm sure they will return like the team we knew before.

Atalanta is the favorite team to win this game because we saw how good they have been playing at the end of the season. Fiorentina on the other hand who failed to win the Conference league for the second time in a row, is not good enough to compete with Atalanta. Even if Fiorentina wins the game, they will not get their chances to play in the next Europa League because Lazio has already secured the position with 61 points. But I think it's quite risky to bet on Atalanta to win because they might not use their top players.


However, I don't think Osimehn will remain at the club next season if he get offer from other clubs, Napoli's president always wants an immediate result and that is going to be difficult to achieve within a single season as a  managers. Some coaches need at least two seasons to get familiar with the players, many players have left the club since the Napoli president does not want any coach to end a season without raising any trophy, and I believe many players are going to leave the club soon, even though they want to renew their contract. Napoli is just similar to Chelsea, they have sacked two coaches this season. Napoli became the Seria A champions last season with the help of Spalleti, and they won the trophy that several managers were unable to win. I was really surprised that the Napoli president had an issue with him and decided to leave the club.

Conte has the potential to be more successful than Spalleti, that is if the Napoli president did not sack him after spending one year at the club without a favorable outcome. Conte has managed some big clubs in Serie A before, so if the managements provide the players he needs to build the team, Napoli will compete for the league title next season.

The result of friendly match usually cannot be used as the reference to see the performance of both teams for next season because there is no guarantee Roma will did the same thing to Milan in the real competition just like Serie A but indeed at least from this match Roma can extended their good records from Milan and if i am not mistaken this was Roma's first big win over Milan since 2017 and for Roma player Tammy Abraham after a few months of not scoring for Roma because got long term injured then finally Tammy Abraham can scored again and hopefully after this match he will found his touch again and scores more goals for Roma for next season however Milan was playing without the manager because we all know after they decide to sack Pioli Milan is still look for new manager and if Milan playing with a manager i think the result of this match will be quite different

Napoli leaders highly appreciate Conte's military ability. This coach has also proven himself by winning 4 Serie A championships and 1 Premier League crown. However, Conte is not highly appreciated in cup tournaments. Napoli will be the seventh Italian club Conte has led, after Arezzo, Bari, Atalanta, Siena, Juventus and Inter. Conte leading Napoli to a top 4 position next season is something that can realistically happen. As for allowing the team to achieve the same level of performance as under coach Luciano Spalletti, this is not a smooth talk. Only if Conte is a genius coach can this happen. Because Inter Milan is dominating Serie A. It's difficult for Napoli to surpass Inter Milan. I believe next season Inter Milan will continue to defend their championship successfully.

Compared to Inter Milan and AC Milan, Team Napoli is unlikely to win the Scudetto or even be in the top 3 next season. Conte lost some reputation after his failed time at Tottenham Hotspur. And it's hard to imagine Napoli leaders will be patient with a multi-year plan to return to the top with Conte.

The Italian league is not easy afterall, there's more to invest in and more coming. There's more to add to Seria A this season. It's always up and rising for the elite teams because they've promising players. I've gain trust on Juventus to be up and running next season, everything just comes with a price to be pay for firing form. Also, we should keep eyes on Napoli and Inter Milan because they're the club's to win the Scudetto in previous seasons.

Fiorentina missed the opportunity and lost the chance to be in the UEL next year. There is no possibility of getting to the top of the league anymore. The Atalanta match became an unimportant match for both teams. It's just a formality match, but they will want to end the season with a win, so I expect both teams to play well in this match.

Nothing will change for Fiorentina in this match. That's why I don't think they will pay much attention to the match. They can even try different strategies and play with different players.
I think Atalanta will play much more ambitiously. Finishing the season 3rd or 4th will not make any difference in terms of European matches, but having had such a good year, they will want to finish the league among the top 3 teams. It would also be a good achievement to gain more points than Juventus.
That's why I think Atalanta will win this match

If Osimhen and several of Napoli main players still remain in this team, I'm sure Conte can produce the same results as Spalletti to be able to finish in the best position and get a ticket to the UCL, but it won't be possible to get it instantly or it will take one season.
and there are other questions besides whether Conte can be like Spalleti and the question is only whether the Napoli president can keep Conte when he can provide the best results for Napoli? all European football fans know how the president of Napoli is too ambitious to get a prestigious title instantly and only keeps changing coaches to speculate on getting a big title instantly.

Napoli always spend large amounts of money to try to achieve success, but in terms of poor management when they cannot make wise decisions in terms of looking for new coaches and players, this always disappoints and if Napoli really wants to get good results in the next season, should be able to learn from the failure of the previous season and the Napoli president should have the courage to try to give the new coach the opportunity to prove his contribution.

Friendly matches don't produce anything because each club just plays the match having fun. What Roma did when they beat Milan is not important unless Roma did the same thing when they beat Milan in the league but the fact is that Roma couldn't beat them but Roma did well in the Europa League by eliminating Milan could be what Roma did today, it is true that their actual performance is true, but I am sure that Milan is not playing with full strength, he is just playing with pleasure because I think Milan is saving more stamina for training and to perform well next season.

Even so, we also need to appreciate what Roma got when they beat Milan with a big score because Roma did it with full strength. I also didn't expect Roma to play so aggressively when they knew that this match was just a friendly match that didn't affect anything, but at least Roma was honing their skills. his players to prepare for increasingly difficult matches next season with the new coaches that Juventus, Milan and Napoli have will be a difficult challenge for Roma but hopefully De Rossi can be better than this season.

Conte will definitely bring a better result to Napoli, but would it be as good as Spaletti? Not entirely sure about that at all. I feel like we are going to end up with something that will be good enough but not title winners.

I think a top four is the goal they should have, if they finish at top four and go to champions league, the money they will make from that would be good. That's the thing about the big clubs that makes them big clubs, they go to UCL quite often, which is a lot of money if you do it for many years in a row. Imagine you are fan of a club that goes to champions league groups 10 years in a row, and sometimes even get out of the groups, you never have to be in quarter finals even, it would still make you better.

Atalanta will be playing with Fiorentina today in the home of Atalanta, which Atalanta have to use the home advantage to defeat their opponent, because they need to end the season in top two or three so that they will receive more honor from their fans. Fiorentina is another strong team that know how to play with strong teams to surprise them with goals, which i know they will score goals from this match but Atalanta will going to be the winner of the match, because they are standing in a good position to make the match to end up for their favour 3-2. If Juventus is not careful, it will be difficult for Juventus to end this season in top third or fourth because their performance is reducing  which they are about to drop down to fourth position in the Italian league competition table.

Atalanta will be hosting Fiorentina in their last game of the season, Atalanta with 69pt trying to finish ahead of Juventus who couldn't keep the 3rd place intact and with the visitors talking about Fiorentina who have 57pt that even if they win this game it doesn't change the way the table is and I'd give this game to the host Atalanta who won the Europa league against all odds, something nobody saw coming.
Atalanta are the favorite in this encounter because I see them as a team who's still having that hunger to do more on their path and no team can stop the fire of winning in them, the way they'll go in this encounter it had to be the host written all over this game but on second thought it might not go as we expected because there's nothing special happening in that encounter, meaning that nothing is involved other than Atalanta finishing 3rd nothing more, so I'd say this game can equally end in a draw, seriously let's but the odds of the bookie aside, a draw is likely to happen.

The fact, he is trying to satisfy at Napoli because he feels great at Napoli and he wants to continue his dreams and excellence with the team. But apparently, after Spalletti left, Napoli really couldn't do anything. The coach who was there to replace Spalletti was also unable to optimize Osimhen's potential, in fact his potential became even worse. Huhh, last season many clubs were after him. But it seems that this season, Osimhen will indeed be sold, but until now, it seems there has been no agreement with other clubs. Does Conte really not want to include him in the squad? Or is it true that according to rumors, Napoli were forced to sell Osimhen due to the club's finances?

Last year, I heard that Osimhen still wants to stay in Napoli.

Milan's defense is quite bad, this is one of the jobs that Milan must improve. This weakness often occurs when competing in Serie A this season. Their defense line is not strong enough. Meanwhile, de Rossi seems to be playing solidly and understands what Roma needs. This is indeed a friendly strategy, but it can also measure how ready the squad will be, at least as an evaluation material for which areas should be improved. Because after all, de Rossi last season tried his best and raised Roma from adversity. And more importantly, the players are increasingly getting along with Rossi, even though previously it was quite doubtful.

Atlanta may not be able to beet fiorentina but one thing I think is very possible is the inability of fiorentina to be able to beat Atalanta either because Atalanta will be hosting them and currently Atlanta has go a vwry strong nd firm winning mentality that I doubt if from home they will allow such match to be lost not with their recent from and strength and considering fiorentinas recent fate.

The fact that they lost the finals and it's the second time fiorentina is loosing such finals to a team like that is enough to make them have some level of frustration that will definitely affect their psychology and even their productivity in the long run and so I don't really see them winning Atlanta easily except they are going to be able to keep all that behind just to make sure they get to face this game squarely and get the best out of the game but their opponent isn't such a team they can easily get victory over even with their hard work.

Fiorentina is definitely going to be able to try to appear like a tough tem  but thwn the chances are that they may not be able to really succeed at it because Atalanta doesn't have a weak form and they are currently in one of their best mindset they have been this season with a very strong mentality that I doubt if it can be really challenged by fiorentina, I forsee a possibility of a draw game.

Milan has been able to dominate Roma in Serie A so far, but this season it was Roma under De Rossi's care who were able to destroy AC Milan in the semifinals of the Europa League and of course made Milan dominance over Roma broken, Roma was able to appear aggressive since the game started but they missed too many chances in scoring, throughout the match Roma were able to dominate the game and surprisingly they managed to win the game with a big score,  It was a friendly match and of course we cannot make it a reference if Roma are better than Milan this season.

If Roma can continue to show performance like in that match during league matches previously, of course maybe next season they can play in UCL, but unfortunately Roma's performance in the league this season often experiences inconsistency that makes them have to end the season in 6th place or the Europa League zone this season, Milan defeat from Roma in the friendly match we can say quite natural,  Because Milan are playing very badly and I think that's because there is no coach in charge of Milan at the moment after Pioli was fired.

The performance of Roma was really good in this match.  but we have to remember that this was a friendly match.  and winning a friendly match does not give any club anything much to celebrate about.  at the same time, it does not change the fact that they have not been able to perform as expected in this season.  the finishing of the season had to be a lot better for them.  at least that is what was expected from the new coach that they have brought in. But the results were pretty average.  especially toward the end of the season.

If we talk about this friendly match,  yes they were able to win but at the end of the day, it is a friendly match, and the teams are going to try to give the players who generally do not play regularly some game time.  and by the looks of it did not seem like Milan did care about this match at all.   Roma has to improve and bring in better results in competitive matches,  not only in friendly matches.

But for next season Napoli has a great coach, and even if for example Osimhen still stays at Napoli I think it will also still be good. Because after all, Conte has agreed to be part of Napoli next season and thus, maybe if Osimhen still plays for Napoli also next season then maybe Conte will also not ask to recruit more players. But yes, it is interesting to look forward to because about PSG and Chelsea who are interested in recruiting Osimhen, but based on rumors that Osimhen prefers to play for Chelsea. Although indeed, I also think that Osimhen would be more suitable to play at PSG for several reasons of course. But, if Osimhen wants a more difficult challenge, then of course Chelsea is the right choice.

Osimhen's mistake last season was to rush into a long-term contract extension and this backfired when his conflict with the club surfaced after he extended his contract.
The current value of Osimhen is 110 million and it is likely that the clause will be slightly increased to 120 million/130 million for Osimhen this season.
Actually, looking at the price now, 100 million more is sometimes a price that is sometimes not too special because for the last few seasons we often see the price of a player that we can't even predict at a price that is even bigger than this so for 100 million in the current era it is a common thing even though it is clearly very large for the size of a player.

But if there is indeed something serious about it then I think this will also not be a problem especially for some big clubs because we know last season Chelsea are still interested in this player besides that, PSG is also one of the clubs who even boasted that they had prepared no less than 150 million for Osimhen even though this was only a rumor in the end when Osimhen decided to stay at Napoli.

When I first read the report that Antonio Conte was linked to a move to Napoli, I was very happy for the club because it's undoubtedly the best decision they could make at this crucial time in the club's struggling season. Napoli didn't just fail to defend the Italian Serie A that they won last year but finished the just concluded season as one of the worst defending champions in the history of the league.
Antonio Conte have proven that he possesses all the  managerial experience it takes to succeed in any club in Europe especially in Italy and conceived that he'll succeed at Napoli. The club management only have to get the few players he would want to be added to the team so he can get the job done. Napoli in my own opinion will be a very strong force this season in the Italian Serie A because they've got a great manager in Antonio Conte.

This match is going to decide the fate of Juventus and Atalanta. By seeing odds, most of the people are pretty confident that Atalanta is going to win this match and Juventus is actually going to finish in the fourth position of the table. That is going to be really sad for Juventus. The ending of the season from them has not been good at all. They were able to get only one point consistently for almost 6 matches if I recall correctly. People might actually think that those matches were very tough. But some of them should have been easy three points for Juventus. And now they are finishing below Atalanta, they have only themselves to blame. But it is not going to be that important for Fiorentina. Because they are not able to finish anywhere different than where they are right now.
