Milan, from Theo and Leao ridiculous attitudes. Juve, courage was lacking

Juventus-Roma was a disappointment. Roma was terrified of losing, and Juve didn’t have the strength to break down the tactics (not the all-out defense) proposed by De Rossi. But if I’m not surprised by the fear for the Giallorossi after such a complicated week, I am surprised by the lack of courage shown by Thiago Motta’s team. Yildiz, for example, didn’t offer his usual quality, also because he got too tired to get away. On the other hand, Douglas Luiz was enlightening, who changed the team when he came in: a total midfielder, in the middle of the field he is the best by far that Juventus has. Up front, however, the problem is having only one real scorer, Vlahovic. The others are all good players but their quality is not excellent: either they will play very well, or they will struggle to score many goals. I wouldn’t call it a step backwards, because Roma’s quality is certainly not that of Como and Verona, beaten in the first two matchdays. In any case, after the break we’ll see more. Fagioli and Locatelli have a certain type of pace, but they are not players to be invented. In short, Juve needs Koopmeiners, Nico Gonzalez and Douglas Luiz.

Inter can only lose the championship

Inter’s victory over Atalanta proves, if there was still any need, that Inzaghi’s team can only lose this championship. It is much stronger than the others, not only for its men, but for its game, personality and stature.

Theo and Leao, no more ridiculous behavior

Milan, on the other hand, has many good players, but to become a team, something else is needed. Furthermore, there are enormous character difficulties in some players, just look at the ridiculous attitude of Theo and Leao, who distanced themselves from the group while Fonseca was talking to his teammates. But not even the children who had their chocolate taken away. I think Ibrahimovic’s intervention is necessary, from the height of his credibility, to invite them to stop behaving in this manner.

Napoli, the points are there. But now we need the game

About Napoli, I can say that they still have to start playing better if they want to give credibility to the victory against Parma, obtained with great determination but also with a lot of luck. And you win a couple of games like that, not 15… Then there is the Osimehn case, but we didn’t understand much about it. It’s a grotesque situation, because not fixing one of the best players in the world is a joke of our times. After all, we live in a world where everyone pretends to be a manager who has studied, who knows how to read the algorithm of this and that. But when all is said and done, after so many words Osimhen doesn’t play.

That thought about Atalanta

After the Atalanta market I wanted to shoot loudly: Atalanta will fight for the scudetto. But I didn’t and I won’t after these three games. Gasperini’s team doesn’t have what it takes to fight for first place, and I say this hoping I’m wrong.

I like Toro, I don’t understand the protest

I like Torino, even if I don’t understand much of the protest. If you sell Bellanova and the fans rise up, then it’s another grotesque situation. If I’m the president and they give me 20 million euros for a player like that, I’ll take him in a carriage. He’s one of those wingers who are in fashion because they run for eighty meters straight. He does it well, for goodness sake, but there are many of them and it’s right to cash in on an offer. As for Buongiorno, for a lot of money it’s fair that you sell him, also for the good of the player who will earn a lot more. Vanoli, however, is going straight ahead. He has built an excellent environment on a good foundation left by Juric, in one of those cases in which the technical project is more important than the money. Of course, it would be great to have a championship with a surprise, but it’s clear that with the squad they have, Torino won’t be able to compete at the highest levels.
