It's not the start of the season I imagined but at least Inter, AC Milan and Roma gave fans something to hold on to with the one point they were able to achieve, unlike Napoli who lost woefully to a side that won less than a dozen times last season. The way I see it, the contention for the title won't be reserved only for the likes of Inter, AC Milan or Juventus as the case may be but rather more teams will join the race and surprisingly, it won't be the teams we expect.
Almost all matches that I thought would be matches that were easy to predict turned out to be matches that produced unexpected results. Too many draws at the start of this season. But yeah, that's still quite good compared to Napoli who had to lose 3 points. And not only that, Napoli must also feel embarrassed because they lost 3-0 to Verona. But Lazio so far they are playing according to what is expected of them.
The remaining matches are Lecce vs Atalanta and Juventus vs Como. And I probably won't bet this time. Because I still feel surprised by all the results in other matches.
This is be why it is called football because it is full of surprises. It is a shame on Conte and his new formation with the players that he has chosen to be his squad because this is a bad start for Napoli with him being the coach. I hope he knows what he is doing if not it might be that too much was expected from him and it became the other way round.
Atalanta should be able to win Lecce but with the way the weekend matches went maybe we might see something different from our initial thoughts but all the same, the season Ave just started and some clubs are just seeing their loop holes and I believe that it will be closed.
