Maybe Rudi Garcia will do better than Spalletti. However, time must be given for this. It is highly unlikely that Rudi Garcia will do something extraordinary next season and Napoli will win the title again. Because Rudi Garcia is not yet familiar with this team. And more importantly, several of Napoli's star players have left the team. The effect can certainly be seen in Napoli's performance. The likelihood of consistently good performances from Napoli next season is slim. Juventus or Inter Milan will probably dominate Serie A next season.
Last season, Napoli managed to show their strength in matches in the Serie A League and were in first place at the top of the standings. At least Spalletti has very good experience at Napoli, while Rugi Garcia is still relatively new, and I doubt whether Napoli will dominate the Serie A next season or not.Usually, a change of coach becomes one of the triggers for winning or losing and becomes part of the journey of a soccer club.

AC Milan has learn from their mistakes and that's why they attempts to bought plenty of players to strengthen their squad and the arrival of Pulisic is really benefited for AC Milan because since he was announced as Milan player his jersey sales have increased rapidly so from the commercial side buy Pulisic is really have good impact for Milan financial and today Milan will starting their pre season tour against Serie D team Lumezzane and most of Milan fans were hoping Pulisic will make his debut on that match
I saw that and acmilan won 6-0 against lumezzane. It's likely this gonna be successful transfer for milan. Pulisic and loftus cheek has been making their debut. Even though they were not contributing a lot but that's good enough to see them play quite well in the pre season match against lumezzane.
My expectation for acmilan is quite big for upcoming season. I see no reason for not using RLC and pulisic in that match. Pulisic being placed as let winger in the match against lumezzane.
It's quite good to see him starting to play in the acmilan.

Milan now still focusing to finished Samuel Chukwueze transfer from Villarreal and the negotiation is still ongoing even reported Milan will immediately to bid 25 millions for this player and they are very confident Villarreal will accept this bid and soon the transfer will be finished and it say if Villarreal agree with 25 millions then Milan have a plan to give long duration contract to Samuel Chukwueze for 5 years duration until 2028 and he will be 5th recruitment for Milan this summer
Chukwueze will be coming very soon to the acmilan. Acmilan is focusing in making the club to be even better. I think that we are gonna see a new face in acmilan.Let's see how he good or bad his performance in acmilan soon.

It's clear that Inter Milan are very disappointed with Lukaku did, when he chose to be close to Juventus. It reasonable if Inter withdraw, considering that Marcus Thuram also already at there, who clearly has more potential in the future. Meanwhile, currently Lukaku get bad situation, reportedly Juventus prefer to recruit Folarin Balogun from Arsenal or Alvaro Morata from Atletico Madrid rather than Lukaku.
That's a serious indirect sign for Lukaku who is playing with the nerves of Inter management and fans! It will be an awkward moment for him to see Inter rejecting him, Juventus neglecting him and absolutely out of the strategy of Chelsea Lips sealed

Marcus Thuram played with a formation which includes only one striker in the attacking area last season. I don't know if this would be a problem for him to play beside Martinez from now on. But I assume there wouldn't be a serious problem about that. Thuram should be able to make a decent level of contribution in Lukaku's position and role.

However I don't think Inter will not make any striker signing from now on. As they are playing with two strikers they had better sign another one as well. Because Dzeko and Lukaku left the team at the same time and it wouldn't be good to fill only one of their spaces.

Inter announced that the player who will use the number 9 jersey next season is Marcus Thuram and we can see that with this the Lukaku era at Inter will come to an end. As we know, Marcus Thuram is their new recruit this season and he may be brought in as a replacement for Edin Dzeko, who had previously joined Fenerbahce.

I think the polemic between Lukaku and Inter has officially ended because we know that there was news that Lukaku was more interested in Juventus' offer and soon Inter withdrew to make Lukaku permanent from Chelsea. Moreover, this annoyed one of the Inter Curva Nord ultras group who even made a statement of disappointment towards Lukaku. It's clear that Inter don't need to be confused with Serie A next season and Marcus Thuram is felt to be enough to fill in next season's starters.

What Spalletti did with Napoli last season is so great that many managers who're well respected would beg to achieve so it can hugely count to their Curriculum Vitae.
I don't think Rudi Garcia can replicate that same feat even when there's every possiblity that he can it. Napoli and Victor Osimhen must decide now on the player's future so he can decide wether to remain at the club or move on
It took years for Luciano Spalleti to achieve the fantastic results for Napoli, and lifting the scudetto with Napoli after 33 years without a domestic title was a very memorable occasion for them. Luciano Spalleti resigned from his role as Napoli's head coach, but he did so for personal reasons. When it comes to the incoming boss, Rudi Garcia, he will undoubtedly fall short of the outgoing manager's expectations. However, I believe that if Rudi Garcia is given more time than Luciano Spalleti, he will make good use of his position and provide solid results for the club and the supporters.

Maybe Rudi Garcia will do better than Spalletti. However, time must be given for this. It is highly unlikely that Rudi Garcia will do something extraordinary next season and Napoli will win the title again. Because Rudi Garcia is not yet familiar with this team. And more importantly, several of Napoli's star players have left the team. The effect can certainly be seen in Napoli's performance. The likelihood of consistently good performances from Napoli next season is slim. Juventus or Inter Milan will probably dominate Serie A next season.

I don't think so, Spalletti had a good performance in Napoli but most of the results he got and the title he won was because of bad performance in other teams and the dram happened to Juventus otherwise even Spalletti couldn't have had this performance in Napoli. Spalletti knew he can't have the same performance in the next season and I think that's the reason for him to leave Napoli, also we don't know yet if some players like Osimhen will stay in Napoli thats' why I don think Rudi Garcia can have the same performance as we saw from Spalletti.

Well I hope AC Milan can stay in the ranks of clubs that are in the top order of the title race in Serie A this season. They buy players on a limited budget. and they were also forced to sell several players to stabilize their finances. but apart from all that, Ac Milan has always managed to deal with the crises that confronted them. Ac Milan is also always able to maximize the squad they have. But right now Ac milan does need some new strength for the team. because we know that at the end of last season AC Milan started to lose balance in their squad.
Yes, last season they failed to win a trophy, either Serie A or the Champions League. Because indeed they themselves are aware that their team is not as strong as other big clubs. We also know how their squad is, not strong enough for the various players. While on the other hand they do not have much money. That's why at least their coach, Stefano Pioli, has to work harder to get new players who are more talented and stronger this season. The arrival of several new players so far is quite a breath of fresh air for AC Milan, they are quite good. Hopefully it really suits AC Milan's coach and playing style. Even though it might not be as strong as the other clubs anymore.
AC Milan though were unable to win a major trophy last season, but I think they had a not-so-bad overall performance last season.
The club has added significant players to their squad in this summer transfer window thereby making their team a more stronger team than the one they had last season. AC Milan if you ask me would have a good season come the 2023/24 season.

We can't expect AC Milan to bring in great players this season as we know their budget is limited just check their transfer stats bring in 3 players with an average price of under 20 million and to bring in these 3 players Milan had to let go of one important player Sandro Tonali for €64 million in detail Milan is still making a profit  Grin Of all the clubs in Serie A I don't see one of them being active on the transfer market even AS Roma haven't spent a single dollar in the transfer window except loan players or free transfers, so I don't think they will be able to compete in European competitions except for Napoli to be considered.

Which makes me wonder what exactly is the main problem that happens to clubs in Serie A why almost all clubs are in financial trouble? if we refer to the 2020/2021 season maybe the problem is the same covid19 but this pandemic has passed and clubs in other leagues have returned to normal, is there another reason, for example a debt trap? It's sad to see one of Europe's top leagues hampered by financial problems, if it happens to only one of the clubs it is normal but this time it was almost all clubs.

When Dusan left the scenario was Lukaku who entered to replace that position, especially Juventus are also still monitoring Lukaku as a successor when Dusan goes to Chelsea. and this makes them benefit because Juventus don't bother too much if they release Dusan to Chelsea.
As for PSG, the possibility when they are eyeing Dusan is because they are still messing around with the status of Mbappe at the moment and I think when Mbappe does not leave this season then they will also reduce the option of looking for a striker so in this case PSG is still 50/50 especially seeing that they are also ready with a 150 million offer for Osimhen it indicates that they still have not decided who their main target is.

What you described now perfectly shows how much all of these transfers are interdependent. Everyone is waiting for what PSG is going to do with Mbappe, PSG thmselves are waiting for Mbappe and Real Madrid because they can't sign another player for 150 million if they don't know whether Mbappe will leave, and there are several more clubs who would either have some of their options become valid or invalid depending on what happens with players at other clubs. It even trickles down to Lukaku and Juventus Turin. I think Chelsea won't remain stubborn and they will let Lukaku go because they can't be interesting in having him sitting on the bench when he is not the type of player Pochettino likes to play with.
Thats right. In the end these are interconnected but still the focus may be between Mbappe and PSG as this could leave some transfers open if Mbappe leaves.
On the other hand this could also encourage some players including Dusan and Osimhen who are at Napoli.
But that only refers to a few for the case of Chelsea there might be a difference because with Mbappe leaving or not they will try to get Dusan if that is the best option from Pochettino but if Mbappe leaves and Dusan is one of the options for a replacement then maybe Chelsea should be prepared for the competition that will occur between them and PSG.

I wonder if Vlahovic is the breakthrough striker that Chelsea is looking for. They tried their luck with a number of strikers and although Vlahovic is a good one, is he really that strong? Vlahovic scored 10 goals in the last season, which also includes 2 penalties. To me this is still one of those average performances that would make doubt that he gets along any better in the Premier League with Chelsea. If this doesn't work out it could end the same way as it did with Felix or Havertz when they tried to let him play the striker position.

Ronaldo is just talking nonsense to me. He is seeing the Saudi League like the best now. He believes this league will soon be getting past the Turkish Super League and Eredivisie in quality also. I believe there is no way the Saudi League is doing all that anytime. Because winning the league doesn't get the champion team anywhere. That team can't join the Champions League for example. Where is the prestige in that league then? Just because they are signing mostly old stars does he think the league quality will be topping others?

Some young players also go there but the general situation is like this. I will never be expecting that league to get ahead of any big European league including the Serie A.
Ronaldo have feature in the major popular leagues, he basically knows how they operatee. Cristiano Ronaldo is bluffing, the Saudi Arabian league is just getting started, they need the balance to compete with European football, and despite Saudi Arabian clubs making huge offers to European players, some accept while others declining condition. Facts indicate that Saudi Arabia league clubs continue to be the most active in terms of signings and investment. Their primary objective is to increase the popularity of their league in comparison to European football.

An article from football italia has been explained how ronaldo's stament about serie a's death was not true.

https://football-italia.net/three-reasons-why-cristiano-ronaldo-is-wrong-about-serie-as-death/

I personally disagree with ronaldo's statement by calling serie was dead once he was coming to the juventus. There are so many reasons why serie was facing horrible situations. I think that ronaldo is quite selfish by thinking if serie a becomes popular again caused by him.
The fact that if ronaldo's effect was there and quite helping in reviving serie a but it doesn't mean if he has become the only factor that was making serie a to revive again.

So many people were also talkiing about this. I think that ronaldo shall not only think if he was the only player who can make everything happen. He shall stop to act like he was everything for serie a in the past.
Ronaldo definitely brought a bit more attention, doesn't have to be talent or anything, just like how he brought attention to Saudi league, he brought some more attention to Juventus and Serie A as well. I think it's quite important to realize that we are talking about something that would be a lot better for them to have him in that situation, meant more jersey sales and so forth.

In any case, I feel like it's important to realize they are working towards something that would be Ronaldo coming to peace with his old past and this is one of the steps. I am not sure if he means it or not, but he needs to make friends during this time and looking at his future, I believe that he will be needed to contact some people at the very least.

It's not right for me to talk before the season starts. They said similar things about Naples last year. Napoli won the league by a clear point margin. We can see a similar picture this year. It will be announced a few weeks after the start of the league. I think Napoli will perform well again.
I also think that Napoli will still be very similar to last season, even though there will be slight changes at Napoli, it will definitely not be so bad for Napoli because they will still be one of the strong candidates in Serie A next season. Although I also agree more with what you said because before the season starts speculation for the Napoli team sometimes wouldn't be more accurate to say, so it will be better to see how Napoli do at the start of next season in the league.

I don't think so. Napoli hasn't changed a bit. Their coach has changed. Napoli won the title last season thanks to Luciano Spalletti's excellent match tactics. Coach Luciano Spalletti had a big role in Napoli's title win. Napoli has also had several players leave the team. Also, their main striker Osimhen will probably leave the team. Even after such a big change, I can't say that Napoli's performance will be stable next season. And Serie A they can dominate. The probability of this is very low.

The season will start in a few weeks, but we can see Napoli's performance with their new coach when they face a friendly match against Anaune Val di non, friendly matches are usually used by coaches to find the best strategy for their team, after against Anaune, Napoli will face SPAL, even though in my opinion those two are easy matches for them but if the strategy used by the new Napoli coach is not right, the opponents will take advantage of these weaknesses to face Napoli in the future.  the new coach of Napoli really feels a heavy burden, everyone will not stop comparing him to the old coach if it turns out that Napoli's performance is lousy.

Of course, Spaletti left behind a very good season and handed over his coaching. If Rudi Garcia, who replaces him, draws an unsuccessful graphic, he will be subjected to harsh criticism by the Italian media. It will be an important season for Napoli.

I think Napoli's performance will no longer be the same as last season so they can secure the title again next season. Napoli have lost their best coach who brought them success last season, so the same expectations and quality will never be the same again next season.

I don't know too much about the new Napoli coach next season even though he has coached Roma for several seasons. Rudi Garcia is a coach who actually has a lot of experience in several Ligue 1 teams, but he hasn't had much success in his career. Yes I will probably doubt Napoli next season a lot, but that team still has a lot of quality players.

If Napoli don't get a replacement that is commensurate with Kim Min Jae, then there is no guarantee that Napoli will be balanced next season. Especially when I think the departure of coach Luciano Spalletti will have a huge impact on the Napoli squad. So far Konstantinos Mavropanos defender belonging to VFB Stuttgart is being linked with Napoli, he has played for Arsenal but is not showing a good trend there.

Napoli move will be really difficult to defend the Scudetto and go further in the European Champions League if Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Osimhen leave in the transfer market this time. It takes several seasons to build a squad like Spalletti did, hopefully Rudi Garcia can bring Napoli to success in the future.

Those fans were so crazy. They criticized Lukaku and called him a traitor, and now they're blaming Cuadrado because they don't like him. My guess if inter fans dislike him caused by he has ever played for juventus. Inter fans don't like juventus's fans. I think this is the sense of reason to dislike him. I will wait who's gonna be get another hate from inter fans soon. It looks so funny to see that. The club needs to follow what already wanted by those fans. I kinda feel that if those fans were out of their bounds.
They are hardline Inter Milan Fans and as you said at first glance it looks out of line. Five seasons to strengthen Juventus open a short time, of course there are many things that make Inter Milan fans really hate him. Cuadrado has a reputation for being dominant over the defeats suffered by Inter while still at Juventus, the series of tensions on the field with Lukaku and a number of other Inter Milan players will always leave an unpleasant impression on Inter Fans. And Cuadrado has at least twice awarded a penalty in different games, so it makes perfect sense that he would be frowned upon at the Giuseppe Meazza.

Regardless of the tension between Cuadrado and the fans, I don't think it will last just one season and no contract extension. What's even more interesting is that Romelu Lukaku joined Juventus and that made the atmosphere of the two Serie A fans even hotter, hating their new players at each club.

As a fan, I often struggle to comprehend the expectations placed on players. They are, of course, professionals who inevitably prioritize financial gain. The fans have no real grounds for feeling unhappy or upset about this reality. Ultimately, the decision lies solely with the players. Shouldn't a player be free to join a rival club if presented with a lucrative opportunity?

As long as they fulfilled their duties to their former team, I see no issue in such a move. Now he has another contract with a different club, as he was previously under contract with their club. This is simply the way it is. Maybe they are unwilling to acknowledge that other clubs presented a more enticing offer in comparison to theirs. As long as the fans maintain the belief that their club is infallible, errors will continue to be made by the club.

I don't have any further opinion about Napoli's appearance next season because I don't know how well Rudi Garcia way of working fits the capacity of each player in the team. What is clear is that I feel the integrity of the players between last season and now is a benchmark for the team's performance next season, although in the end it still depends on the handle of their coach.

I've been hearing that some fans, and especially the ultras at Inter Milan, are not happy with Cuadrado now that he has joined the club. Maybe that has something to do with the time he played for Juventus against Inter Milan and the fans were unhappy about this player because of that.
Those fans were so crazy. They criticized Lukaku and called him a traitor, and now they're blaming Cuadrado because they don't like him.

This is quite an unfortunate thing and the big impact will be very detrimental to the team when their recruits do not have the support of the fans so it is very likely that the players will not be able to perform optimally.
I've never seen Inter Milan fans so stupid as this season, maybe it's just some people who are too scrutinized by the media so this keeps coming to the surface.
I regret this, and I hope that when Cuadrado appears later, the fans will support him so that Cuadrado's performance can come out to the fullest.
