Roma are so enjoyable under De Rossi, they have had an easy schedule but it's great to see Pellegrini play well and the whole team look much better. Torino and Monza wins are legit though.

I will admit I was totally wrong about De Rossi. The schedule is favorable but I thought they would fall apart in a couple games. I hope they let him continue if he wants.

Great second half from Bologna there. Really feel like they may get the last CL place

Ya I feel like Mou would have struggled with teams like Torino/Monza, he usually got super dirty 1-0s. Also it's fun to watch Roma players not be cunts all game, when your under Jose it seems like he asks you cry about every foul, throw in, freekick, goal kick.

On Juve, Feel like Juve are sort of crumbling...Inter, Napoli, Milan and Roma all have European games but look much better. I still think they should be shoe in for top 4 just cause they have not many games. Vlahovic didn't score but he looked very dangerous.

Also Pedri and Frenkie De Jong were both strechered off vs Bilbao. Napoli are looking good under their new manager. Osimhen and Kvicha both seem to feed off eachother. Their form is finally reminding me of last year. This could set up for a great chance for Napoli to surprisingly advance to quarter finals in a otherwise chaotic year.

Not sure how Inter got away with a win vs Bologna in the 2nd half. Somehow Inter managed rest most of their squad and get 3pts away at Bologna.

Definitely feels like one of those season where nothing will go wrong for Inter.

One the one hand this is absolutely abysmal behavior and he absolutely should be sacked. On the other hand, lol. Lmao.

I wonder what his contract was like and if Lecce are trying to cut costs before what is looking like a big relegation fight and possible drop.

I’m glad he was canned but you have to wonder if there was a motive behind it beyond being the right thing to do.

Yup predicted it. I really thought him or Tuchel would get sacked if they lost UCL + then lost 1-2 more games right after. Not a sack but I am guessing its mutual.

I haven't been a fan of Sarri's tactics for a while now, hopefully someone brave like De Rossi takes over Lazio. They do have the players to play much more offensively. The japense player Kamada was brilliant last year in Frankfurt but he hasn't fit at all in Lazio's system. This team screams for a Inter type formation with both Taty + Immobile.

The salamimakers one is good too. They're gonna be fun in Europe if they don't get completely taken apart over the summer.

Well looks like Serie A might be getting the extra champions league spot next year with how well they did and how bad England did. Italy is currently number 1 in coefficient lol.

There is no dignified way to give up the second star. The Milan players were right to magnify their own disgrace— at least it will give us a few laughs when we remember them, after they are sold to the Saudis.

Scamacca has been on fire since Gasperini has put him in the starting 11 this year. Some absolutely ridiculous goals and strikes by him reminds me of Zlatan how he blasts goals.

He would have been good in Prem as well but Moyes literally wants his whole team to park the bus and work defensively.

So ya he was never gonna work there.

I'm just glad he came back to where he was going to play. Unless Spalletti is balding even further he should be starting for Italy at the Euros at this rate.

Ya looks like it will be him , Retegui and maybe Raspadori. I just don't trust Retegui to stay fit though so thats only 2 strikers and Raspa ain't in /out striker like Scamacca.
