Gotta love this league for the drama
Serie A 2024/25
- Thread starter SilentWitness
- Start date
As you were
I saw that draw coming. Napoli sat far too deep in the latter half.
I think Raspadori should have taken the shot instead of trying to pass to Simeone.
ADL needs to get in 1-2 reinforcements on deadline day the take Napoli over the edge.
Inter have a bigger squad even though they’re still in three competitions.

Yep. Didn’t track the run but you could see he was gassed and running on fumes.
Had a pretty good game up to the last 5 mins. Getting a lot of joy running with the ball, something that 2-3 years ago was one of his strengths but we saw much less of in the last couple of seasons at Utd. Maybe the lower pace of Italy just allows him to use it more often.
He did have one classic McT moment of head down, getting a shot off with no awareness of the runner on his right that would have been in.
Yeah that was criminal. Play the pass and it's most likely 2-0.
Napoli have faced Atalanta away, Roma away and Juventus at home in their last 3 games and achieved 7 points. That's very good going.
Who will play more for Milan, Gimenez or Joao Felix? The Mexican I guess?
Gimenez obviously, he's a starter for them
Joao Felix will play 10 matches
Joao Felix will play 10 matches
I think so too but I’m a bit puzzled they brought so many attackers.
What do you make of Zaniolo back to Fiorentina? Will he be a starter there? He was such an exciting player in Roma, I was sure he’d have a bit better career
Don't fall into the fanta hole mate, there's no return
My advice, don't bother with Zaniolo, Gimenez is intriguing, Joao Felix is the player you con one of the others into spending big for
Haha Zaniolo question was on the side of Fanta, I just really liked him as a player. But yes I need a striker especially as I overslept the bidding on Kolo!Don't fall into the fanta hole mate, there's no return

Stress the fact Joao Felix was an explicit request by Conceicao - nevermind that it was all about doing Mendes a favour - and that he's gonna be motivated to show what he can do and that Serie A is the perfect league for him since it's not overtly fast or physical and Milan will play him behind the striker, his natural role
then make sure somebody is dumb enough to fall for it and spend big. and make sure Joao Felix first game isn't against you! He'll be a monster in that one

Even if I really can't see Felix being a good Fanta asset. He's just an infuriating player and you just know he'll miss so many open goals
I'm in Rome next week and hoping to bring the young lad to Lazio-Napoli. Has anyone any experience buying tickets for Lazio or Serie A games?
Never been to Lazio but went to a few different Serie A games and it was always super easy buying tickets through the official websites, no need for membership etc. Never went to any 'big' games like Inter-Milan or Roma-Lazio so in my case the tickets were also quite accessible, even for groups of 3-4 people. Just check on the official Lazio website if the tickets are on sale already and if not just check it next days, should be quite soon
Ok thanks, I'll have a look at the Lazio site
In my experience in Torino, the individual seats may be a suggestion rather than an assignment, so don’t be too surprised if you arrive and people are in the seats.
They just combine to make a goal against Roma
Hope Santi does well at Milan.
After scoring a few own goals in their upcoming CL tie.

Totally bonkers that Abraham is eligible to play against Roma today and scores twice, particularly considering he only had 2 league goals in 18 appearances before today. I will never get used to the idea of loan players playing against their parent club but I guess it is totally normal on the continent, I still chuckle at Coutinho scoring against Barcelona after they blew a huge chunk of the Neymar fee on signing him.
Should be easy to get tickets as others said. Remember to take id with you to the game. They check everyone. Won't get in without it.
For all the good work Inzaghi has done with Inter, it would be shocking if he lost Scudetto again this season. It would mean they won one out of four titles with him at the helm, while clearly being the best side in the league throughout the whole period.
3-0 loss is a big one. The race will be close and I still maintain they'll win it because Napoli will be Napoli and throw it away at some point
I don’t get it. It’s Conte. They are more likely the one reaching the finish line eventually regardless how ugly the process is.
But its also Napoli who love throwing things away (or so it appears).
I disagree with being the best team throughout that period. The season Napoli won the title under Spaletti Inter were nowhere near being the best side in the league.
The season Inter lost the title to Milan by 2pts is a different story.
If Napoli get a result away at Lazio they’re firmly in the driver’s seat for the title. Inter are still playing in three competitions. Napoli just have the league.
Conte knows how to get him teams over the line.
What a way to crash from Inter, they lost quite a chance to reach the top
It's the history of Napoli.
Well yeah, but that Napoli season was clearly an outlier, and even then, Inter reached Champions League final and more than matched City in a game that could have gone either way.
But in general, over past four years, Inter have been the only solid, consistent Serie. A side, only club to keep pedigree and look good on European level, yet they will have one scudetto to speak for that if they don't win this year.
Since the Zhang’s demisal and the consequent, severe lack of funding, Inter has actually become Marotta’s truly masterpiece at any level: a shrewd and complete roster, his direct FIGC influence as the “revered sage” of Italian football, the media silence on his collusion with criminals in the stands, the courts’ complacency about their balance sheet from magistrates more than happy to show they are big fans publicly. I would not say they are doing bad at all, on the contrary they are being fantastic as a zombie club a la Weekend at Bernie’s.
It is much more interesting to see how this race against Conte’s Napoli (aka the Southern rebels, the popular heroes, the pleb’s poke in the eye of the riches, the revenge of the illetterates) is unfolding, which side would FIGC favor in the end… because yes, apart of the questions, one scudetto in four with the best roster would be a relatively poor return.

Pulisic with 2 assists for Milan goals. First to Leao and the second to Gimenez, despite the memes…
Indzaghi is a tournament coach, Conte is a championship coach.. my money are on Napoli for the Scudetto..
So we sold the new Vieri on deadline day for pocket change.
Sounds like us.
Sounds like us.
Scott scores again.
Go on Scott!!!
Go on Scott!!!
Sweet technique on that equalizer.
Wow!
That Udinese eq was something else!!

Have you seen yesterday’s highlights? Football in Italy is not a sport anymore but an important part of the welfare state.Re
That said, Marotta league is just terrible: if 1/10 of current Inter’s scams (and Napoli’s as well) were from Juventus, you would witness a revolution. It’s botched entertainment for the boomers and the plebs.Nice save from the Juve keeper to keep it 0-0
Inter all over them
