Mourinho will completely destroy Roma. That ECL win is the worst thing that could have happened to the club, it lulled them into sense that they are on the right track with Jose. It should be well known by now that you can never be on right track with Jose.

Not a scoreline I was expecting to see. Lazio leading 3 -1 away to Napoli

Edit 2-1. Goal disallowed

Feel for Guendouzi, could have been goal + assist at his debut but rules are rules

It looks like Napoli won't be good this season as they were last season.

As i said in the beginning of this thread - one hit wonder. The reason why i am so confident - there is no plan, no structure, nothing to keep them the level they were the last season. It just happened to have the right players and coach at the right moment. That happens very rare. Rudi Garcia is a downgrade to Spalletti but the bigger problem is the lack of direction of this club.

Lazio beat Napoli last season too away from home. Bit of a bogey team

Lautaro Martinez. What a start to the season.

Inter have done a great mercato. Let's hope we can go all the way in CL this year.

Inter seem in good form and will be up there with a good chance for the title. Impressed by their consistency the last 3 years.

Surprisingly Inter have had a very good window. Signed a lot of good players for not much and made a 60m euro profit.

Combined with reaching the CL final that should help their debt repayment issues a bit

Marcus Thuram seems like a good fit in this team. I think he can be a great striking partner with Lautaro.

Frattesi is also a very interesting signing. He will be one of the best box-midfielders in a few years. Hakan Çalhanoğlu is steadily becoming better for each game and he got that freekick and penalty-magic.

Bastoni is certainly one of the best CB's in the world already.

Barella and Lautaro are beasts. Top 5 in their positions without a doubt. Maybe rather top 3.

All looking well ahead of the derby. Milan look strong aswell and Leao is scary indeed but Inter are stronger in every part and have mental edge.

I guess this years Serie A will be a Milano-affair though. Napoli might replace AC Milan. Inter will be up there if Lautaro stays fit.

DiMarco on the left flank is proving to be world class aswell. Underrated player. Top left-back.

Dimarco is quality never understand why he was benched before or not in the team every time I saw inter he seemed one of thier best players of the day, Just needs to perform nationally now

He will. He is a starter for the National Team right now, starting the last 4 matches on the national team.

One of the best left-backs in the world and he is stabile, rarely giving a bad performance.

Juventus with no european play. They could prove a problem. Maybe theyre a bit too weak to compete at the very top, even if they can solely focus on the league.

Napoli feels weaker than last season, still a strong squad but the manager-change could prove to weaken them this season i feel.

Pogba positive for testosterone. Let's hope for the results of the final analysis.

Since pre season of last year, I have like Inter's Kristjan Asllani. I don't think he'll be a top midfielder but I think he'll be good. Very good at turning away from pressure.

I hope he leaves Inter because I just can't see him ever getting consistent game time. I think he could be a starting midfielder for a midtable Italian side. Even if he just leaves on loan I'd welcome it.

Dimarco are really good. Has to be one of the best in his position. Rarely do a bad match and now more often do very good in matches.

Dumfries seems to be winning the duel against Theo Hernandez.

Great finish to the Genoa-Napoli game, ends 2-2.
Fair result I'd say, Napoli only really started playing after being 2 goals down. Couple of brilliant goals though

Rudi Garcia needs to figure out how to get Raspadori into the starting XI. The defence is terrible this season though, Ostigard and Jesus ain't it.

They also said that he doesn't have a right foot haha. That second goal was a masterpiece. First wasn't bad either but second goal was wow!


Second goal starts at 2:10 mark.

Roma a whole lot better with Dybala back, Sanches looked good, first goal for Lukaku to make it 6-0.

Fantastic game between Sassuolo and Juve. 3-2 for Sassuolo.

Boloca looks a pretty good midfielder. So press resistant

A hat trick of mistakes from Szczęsny.
Hilarious own goal and terrible from the defender but what was Szczęsny doing kicking across the pitch like that
