Daniele De Rossi had an amazing performance since he joined the team, Roma had many problems and with Mourinho in this team, they couldn't get results at all.
They spent lots of money to hire many players during the summer when Mourinho was working there and they still could get good results when they put this team under pressure to get Mourinho fired the team and now with De Rossi, they have perfect results.
Their winning rate with the new coach is 70 percent and won seven games in the ten games they had at home.

The only way for Napoli to appear in European competition next season is to win in the remaining matches this season, if they still lose points then it will just be a daydream. The arrival of Calzona as the new manager seems to have given Napoli an injection of enthusiasm, because so far they have managed to appear unbeaten, even though they have drawn in several matches.

Napoli most realistic chance may be to finish in the Europa League zone, while hoping if several teams currently occupying that position stumble and lose points, and they continue to be consistent without losing or drawing. Napoli victory over Juventus may have been too late to fix the situation instantly, but who knows, they will be lucky when the end of the season approaches.

Next Napoli will face Torino, I think it is an easy match to win, and they can continue their positive trend so they have the opportunity to get closer to the European zone. The dynamics of competition in the race for tickets to the Champions League are now more interesting, because Inter are already running alone at the top of the standings in the hunt for the Scudetto.

Inter Milan are winning the scudetto this season, no striving harder results but maintaining consistency in winning matches. Always on different stage and aiming for important winnings. Napoli new boss, Francesco Calzona have passed important test and this alone have given the club a new dimension to focused on the important winnings in the system. Napoli have more tougher opposition to meet but they just have to ensure winning ought to be secure in all round competitions, though it's not easy but achieving them shouldn't be challenging.

If Napoli effort has come sooner, it would have been better but to me, what they are doing now is like trying to move a truck that has been abandoned in the forest but some how it has been brought back to life but some things had been damaged in the truck. That's the only scenario I can picture from this their performance because despite all of these, they are right below Atlanta in number 7 places on the table. Their dream of next year Champions League is buried for now maybe next year.

How many points are they away from Torino that makes you think Napoli are better than Torino, the Atlanta team are even ahead of them in the table which means that if Napoli want to be consider a place in the Europa League, they need to have atleast 3 wins to make that place which after they have to continue to win their games otherwise they are not going for any important league than Seria A next season.

Napoli could still get something really good out of this season in the serie A but they are definitely not going to be able to defend their title again this season because it's definitely going to take they really a whole lot to get to the top and displace the team at the top of the table and take the lead to winning the trophy again and defend the trophy, even. If they get back inform to winning ways they lack enough time to achieve that.

Last season was one of the best for Napoli, they were able to win the league title for the first time in a very long while, this has been their greatest achievement in a very long while but this season has really been different a d it's looking like they are definitely not going to be able to fix that all again. Next season one of their key player osimhen may be exiting the team and it's impact on this team will definitely be obvious just like it did when he was absent as he went for a national call back home.to help defend his country, Napoli winning Juventus was a very good move for them as even their confidence increase.

Neither Juventus nor Napoli will be able to win the trophy this season, they will definitely try to finish top four but even Napoli literally may have to struggle to get to the top four but I'm optimistic about their new form and if they are able to maintain it well enough, it's very much possible they will be able to finish at number four in the table but beyond that they may have to work much harder and they may not have all the time as the season is far spent already.

With Calzona now for Napoli it slightly gives them a new ambition to be able to make the situation better to keep competing for a position in the top 4 because although at this time they still have to continue to prove themselves but slowly the performance is leading to a better situation now.

Currently Napoli are starting to crawl little by little unlike before who always played badly and with the last few wins it was enough for them to put pressure on some of the clubs that are above them now.

Currently they are in 7th place but with the remaining matches owned and with the condition of the points that are still not too far from Bologna then I think it can still be overtaken if indeed their performance is getting better for the rest of the season now.

Recently, Napoli's performances have seen a significant improvement, particularly evident in their victory over Juventus. This win underscores Napoli's enhanced capabilities and resilience. Despite Juventus' reputation as a strong team, Napoli emerged victorious, showcasing their strengthened form. With Napoli's current impressive form, if they can sustain it, they stand a good chance of securing a spot in the top four and qualifying for the next season's Champions League.Bologna currently occupies a position ahead of Napoli and is also performing commendably, yet Napoli can still attain a top-four finish if they remain determined and persevere in their pursuit of success.

As Roma, Atalanta, Napoli, Fiorentina and Lazio are not so far from themselves you see, it's still open and available for those clubs who definitely works hard so they could finish up. I would love a chance for Bologna honestly but it seems like Napoli would come in with a lot of wave to snatch the too four.
Failure to qualify for the Champions League Competition would be a direct passage for players in Napoli to finally leave.

Same goes with Juventus and Ac Milan as they're not so far apart from themselves both. Juventus indeed would want to replace Max Allegri for he has also contributions related to the success of the Old Ladies ( Juventus )
Atalanta also should let go of their head coach finally. He has been in charger for more than four years but yet again, no much lucks for em.

You are indeed following the transformation going on with Napoli. They have shown huge difference in their attacking as well as the midfield in their last two matches. Winning Juventus was a nice proof that the can still achieve great result this season and a good test of their courage. Their new matches are very tough and demanding except that against Torino tomorrow which I think they will win with little stress. After this match they will be facing Inter Milan followed by Atalanta, two teams that are also in their best form. It will be interesting to see how Napoli will be able to navigate through.

Knowing that Napoli has already come back to their form since their best striker came back after the AFCON finals, their performance is also very impressive, but seeing the way they are playing now with a fire of strength and nice formation of the players makes me have hope in them that they won’t find it hard to meet up to the top 5 in the table because they have been showing out many unbelievable performances so far, which make them even go on a draw with Barcelona in the Champions League, which is the first leg, which I am quite sure of course if care not talking; they will win Barcelona and end up knocking them out in the second leg because, up until now, the performance of Barcelona has not been stable, which is why I think Napoli can do it.

Moreover, if there is Osimhen in the game, they will definitely have the point that they need to be in the top five in the table, and they can do that in their next match against Torino. which, if they really are opportune to win Barcelona in the Champions League, will be a great achievement for them, but actually Napoli itself is surprising many already, so there are many surprises that we will anticipate from Napoli soon.

Napoli success win two consecutive matches against Sassoulo and Juventus last match, its good start for Napoli returning back to the top fourth position standing behind 8 points left to catch up Bologna on 4th position standings. I don't think close the opportunity of Napoli to raise top fourth position standings if can consistent performance on several matches left.
Next match against Torino should not problem to make new winning trend become three consecutives matches, but Napoli will face two difficult match after facing Torino with second leg match against Barcelona on Champion League and later face Inter Milan with solid performance without losing points in last several matches.

Napoli should secure their three points when facing Inter Milan upcoming two week later, its very crucial if can bet Inter will make the opponent face in several matches left.

Napoli are now showing signs of consistency under new manager Francesco Calzona, the win over Juventus was the highlight of their best performance so far. Because Lazio and Fiorentina dropping points, Napoli managed to temporarily climb to 7th place in the standings, 8 points adrift of Bologna who occupy the last zone in the Champions League. Previously, many thought that Napoli would suffer another defeat when facing Juventus, but the opposite happened and they managed to get an additional three points. Napoli opportunity to break into the top four is still open, but they must be able to secure full points in the remaining matches ahead.

Bologna, Roma and Atalanta will face tough matches next week, and it is an opportunity for Francesco Calzona to bring Napoli up to 6th place, because they will face relatively easy opponents, namely Torino. If Bologna, Roma and Atalanta lose points, Napoli scenario for breaking into the Champions League zone will be easier. However, Napoli still have several tough matches to face in the remaining Serie A matches ahead, including facing Inter Milan, which is a strong candidate to win the Scudetto this season.

Napoli who are currently the defending champions of the Italian Serie A started the league campaign in a poor and inconsistent form and that's why they're currently struggling to enter the top four positions of the league table. It is because of their poor results this season that they've sacked two managers already and are with their third manager since the start the start of the season but considering their recent results in the league, I think they stand a good chance of achieving their aim of finishing the season in the top four. Victor Osimhen who was out of the team for over three weeks because of his participation in the CAF African Cup Of Nations has been impressive since he returned to the team and of he can continue with his current goal ratio in the last five games for the club, he'll definitely provide the club the needed contribution they need from their top 9 striker to finish the season in the top four. That been said, Napoli I think will find it very difficult because the other teams that are higher than them in the league are also trying to make it into the top four

Just as the season is coming to an end, Napoli are now getting in form and on top of the game to contest with other teams for the league title. I wouldn’t say it is already too late for them but their consistency in winning all of their remaining matches will determine what will be their fate by the end of the season. The point gap is still very much big but if they can continue winning, some of the teams might drop points and that will help them to go up the standings faster than they imagine now. It was a great win for them against Juventus and that should serve  as a booster to them to take the remaining matches serious including the small matches that they might want to underrate now. They were the league champions last season and it won’t make any sense if they don’t even finish on top four of the standings to get a promotion to the champions league competition again by next year. They now have the decision to make now on what position they will finish by end of the season.

I agree, Bologna looks like they are doing fine, haven't lost in a while, and the yare quite far ahead enough to be in the fourth place at the end. Of course the difference is small enough that in a few weeks they can find themselves out, but I doubt that will happen. Roma is right there, but the difference is big enough that they may not get it.

It's fine though, finishing fifth and then going to europa would not be a bad idea for them, they would be able to get a lot more wins there. At the UCL stages, Roma may not be as good and they may have some trouble, whereas while we are talking about Europa, that means that they are going to end up doing a lot better and get a lot more good games which will keep the morale higher as well.

Napoli's recent results (two wins in five matches) gives me hope, despite their uphill quest to climb into the top 4. The 8-point margin from Bologna is frightening, and beating Atalanta and Roma won't be easy. The win over Juventus is a huge morale boost. I think Napoli's season might start with this win. Napoli can prove their resilience in the tough match against Torino. I'm confident Coach Calzna can handle this difficult period tactically. If Napoli can qualify for Europe by season's end, it would be a big turnaround from their slow start

Napoli is indeed a little stronger when playing at home and Torino itself is also not much stronger than Napoli so there is a chance for Napoli to win in the next match when they host Torino tomorrow. But Napoli certainly shouldn't consider their visiting team tomorrow as a weak opponent because Torino can also make Napoli cry at home and reducing the points advantage that Bologna has will also not be easy for Napoli. Because there are two more teams that Napoli must pass if they want to reach Bologna's position this season.

Napoli have only won two matches in a row and we cannot overestimate this because if we look at Napoli's overall performance this season it is very bad and in my opinion they are not worthy of competing to enter the top 4 because their quality is not better compared to Roma, Bologna or Atalanta.
Napoli took a long time to build their team again after the downturn they experienced and I think it will take several more seasons for them to be able to compete at the top.

Napoli became strong when the league have almost come to an end with the number of games that even when they win all it will still be impossible for them to finish as top four, because they ha e strong clubs ahead of them that is also fighting for that position. Europa cup is what they will settle for because that is where they belong to this season due to the challenges that the club was passing through initially, and also Osinmeh going to Africa Cup of Nation affected them to lose track on the top four spot. Nobody knows if they will continue to be consistent in the rest of their matches, but I think that since the season will soon come to an end, every club will be fight to secure a spot in European leagues next season, so they might continue to win their rest matches.

There are 10 points and 2 teams between Juventus and 5th place, it is completely unrealistic for them to lose a place in the top 4. Look at the quotes of the teams competing for the top 4:

Ac Milan 1.01

Inter 1.01

Juventus 1.01

Bologna 2.16

Atalanta 3.19

As Roma 3.43

Napoli 8.82

The odds of Inter, Milan and Juventus are no different at all, although their standings are very different. The only intrigue is who will take fourth place. This season, Juventus will apparently have to be content with the Italian Cup, for which they have good chances since there are only two steps left: defeat Lazio, and then defeat the winner of the Fiorentina-Atalanta pair.
