Think with the lineups I'd be going for a 3-0 Juve win, if I were a betting man, i would also couple that scoreline with no goalscorers.

you guys literally don't know what you're talking about.
Napoli is pulling tricks trying to postpone the game when there is a protocol which has been followed so far.

They had out Insigne,Zielinsky and Elmas.
And still this is Juventus fault!!!! if we didn't follow up with normal things we would've been punished for not attending same as Napoli
And why should we? the clowns are those from Napoli.

Whats happening here?? Why is Napoli not coming?
Napoli has positive Covid tests and the local health authority told them not to travel, although in that part of Italy all sorts of back door deals go on. The central government is now getting involved and it might not be a forfeit after all.

In other news Inter continue hoovering up our rejects. Darmian just signed on loan.

what some people here forget IS that this isn't the first time that some team has covid19 cases.
What's different here? that Napoli didn't follow the protocol and then went to ASL to ask what to do.
They obviously told them what they should tell to any citizen.
They didn't and coudn't forbid them from traveling.
So Napoli used a back door instead of following the protocol (unlike what Juve did. aka following protocol) because they DID NOT WANT TO PLAY.
And now you're blaming it on us? ridicolous.
So yeah clowns

you should know italian and you should understand what's going on.
This just show how unfair you are. Totally biased


Napoli didn't follow the protocal which Juve did.
Aka when they found out that Zielinsky was potisive to Covid19 they had to go in a light quarantine as protocol says.
Well they didn't and let everyone go sleep in their homes.
Then they went to ASL and ask what to do. Fully knowing what it meant.
Anyway Asl can suggest people to stay home to avoid the risk of spreading the virus but they can't stop Napoli Fc from traveling for a game.
You just need to see the other games.
Milan had Ibrahimovic and Duarte positive to Covid19 folowed protocol and played normally.

So why Milan,Genoa and the other can but Napoli won't? Pooor little nipples =( everyone but them!

so c'mon let's be real and not anti-juve for once. We all know this happened for a reason and Napoli is behind it.

a total waste of money.
It was much better if they loaned out McKinney to a minor serie A team and
Get Suarez (for free) + Kean as sub on loan
Pick Aouar for the midfield instead of McKinney now
Get Gosens to play instead of Alex Sandro.

Chiesa is a good player (well even Bernardeschi was what Chiesa is today) but really useless in this team.

Lazio - Andreas Pereira
Milan - Dalot
Atalanta - Amad Traore

That's just loan deals.

Roma - Smalling, Mhki
Inter - Lukaku, Sanchez, Young, Darmian

So many ex and current players in Serie A

Today La Gazzetta dello Sport have published the Serie A wage list for the 2020/21 season.

Serie A wage bill: € 1,288 bln a-year (Last season € 1,360). The biggest clubs:



(Atalanta are only 11th in Serie A with € 42,6 mln)

Players' wages reported are net (in euros) while the wage bills of the clubs (€ 236 mln Juventus, € 149 mln Inter etc.) are gross.
€ 1 mln net is pretty much £ 30k a-week before taxes. In Italy the tax rate is 43% so the most payed players are:

1. Cristiano Ronaldo: £ 930k a-week
2. De Ligt: £ 240k
3. Lukaku, Eriksen, Dzeko: £ 225k,
4. Dybala: £ 219k
5. Ramsey, Rabiot, Alexis Sanchez, Ibrahimovic: £ 210k
Etc.

These tax „exemptions„ for foreign players really improved Seria A‘s attractiveness again. You don’t need a lot of gross to get a nice net.

Yep, that was made for Italian scientists and PhDs working abroad, though, in order to nudge them back with a more competitive salary... how many scientists and top hospital personnel you can hire with a single Ronaldo wage? I would say, 250 to 500. Just another populist promulgation only exploited by the entertainment sector.

Ronaldo came before wages law so fully paid

Can Zlatan help them win the title? Juventus do not look as good anymore.
More open race than people think.

AC Milan, to be fair, have looked good for a little while now.
Yep. Since the back end of last season, they had been very quietly looking like a good team. As someone who loves their 1990s football, this delights me.

Shades of last season, Milan went 2 up early on in that game IIRC and then Inter came storming back.
