Atalanta are unlikely to compete for the title. Atalanta performed well at the beginning of the season but gradually fell behind. If they want to win the Serie A title, they have to maintain a consistent performance throughout the season. This is not possible for Atalanta.
If Atalanta wants to win the title, they will definitely have to strengthen their squad. There is no alternative. At the same time, they will have to perform very carefully. Atalanta has also qualified for the Champions League. If they want to do well on both platforms, it will be more difficult for Atalanta. If Atalanta focuses only on Serie A, then maybe it will be easier for Atalanta to maintain a consistent performance.

Based on their last 2 seasons, they should have a great chance of being in the Serie A title race. Looking at the list of goalscorers last season, the top 3 names are filled by Atalanta players, they are Mateo Retegui & Ademola Lookman. I think Atalanta are just unlucky & they should have a clear objective in their matches, it's no use having a lot of goals in certain matches because the points are the same (3 points).

Atalanta was a strong team last season. And I thought that maybe Atalanta would compete for the title until the end of this season. But that didn't happen.

Atalanta's attack was strong. In 38 matches, Napoli's players scored only 59 goals, while Atalanta's players scored 78 goals. Also, Atalanta's defense was not weak. Even then, Atalanta was 8 points behind Napoli at the end of the season.

Atalanta's squad is strong. If they want to win the Serie A title, they need to keep their performance stable from the beginning to the end of the season. And for that, they need an experienced coach. Tullio Gritti has been Atalanta's manager for a long time. Gritti has no other achievements other than the single Europa League title.
