Re: ⚽ Lega Serie A 🇮🇹 (Italian League) Prediction Thread 2025/2026 ⚽

I think there is no way Modric is becoming a regular starter at Milan. He can't handle such a tempo anymore truthfully. This guy is soon 40 years old now...

Maybe one can say Ronaldo is still like that at the same age. But he is Ronaldo. He still has a stunning physique which helps him keep a good form in matches even now.  Smiley

So coming back to the main topic, Modric would be more like a mentor there, yeah.
Modric few times played for complete 90 minutes when he was play for Real Madrid.

He might be not able to play for complete 90 minutes all the time, but I'm sure he can, the tempo in Serie A is slower. You might think like that because Modric's physique doesn't look as good as Ronaldo, but he has still a good stamina.

Let's see whether he can change Milan or not, Milan is a like curse team now.

I wonder what he's suggesting? Ronaldo is the most influential sportsman in the world and it's an objective reality that he has a lot of influence. No player can be above the club, but no club can be above the League... and Ronaldo's influence is so great that it can be compared to the League. It was he who "legitimized" the transfer to the SPL of players who had not yet retired and were in demand in Europe. Ronaldo remains the SPL's most important asset and you can't fix that just because "it's the right thing to do".
He should know Ronaldo is even bigger than the whole league. Cheesy

Ronaldo must be have a great influence to the team, I'm sure every of his teammates always agree with his opinion, but he's not someone who want to shine alone, he's already mature and know the best decision.

We can check the penalty taker, Ronaldo wasn't always take it https://www.transfermarkt.com/al-nassr-fc/elfmeterschuetzen/verein/18544/plus/0?saison_id=2024

So now that Newcastle wants to snap up Benjamin Sesko, because it's been reported that Newcastle wants to close up the deal today with Leipzig concerning the signing of Sesko. The are looking for the replacement of Alexander Isak on time after he has told the club that he wants to leave. So with this news now, Manchester United will only be left with the option of Jackson since Newcastle won't be joking with getting Isak's replacement as soon as possible.
I'm curious which team gonna sign Isak, his price tag is too expensive and almost all top teams already get their own strikers.

Liverpool, Ekitike.
Arsenal, Gyokeres.
Chelsea, Joao Pedro.
Other teams already have their own strikers.

Would be a Saudi Professional League team sign Isak? not many teams can afford such amount.

Yes! This news is far from that. They're valid and accurate and Manchester United have initiated a move for the player who has also expressed his desire to join Manchester United. He's been monitored for a very long time as the reports says and with a lesser fee, United are sure making it happen before the end of the transfer window. Below shows, the youngins performance with enough room for improvement.
Comparing stats in First Division A and Premier League aren't make sense. Anyway from this statistic, it's already clear recruiting Martinez will be a good decision because his stats almost outperform Onana.

But I’m still wondering were he is going to fit in when there is a Cole Palmer in that position where he plays, will he battle with Cole Palmer for a place in the team, which I think wouldn’t be a very good decision for him, Palmer hardly gets injured so I will see how he fits into the Chelsea team.
Chelsea lack of high quality wingers, Madueke left to Arsenal, Sancho isn't enough to reach the standard.

So, Simons won't be a rival to Palmer in order to play, both of them will play if they have a good quality.

Complaints and other stuffs such as this is normal and you can hear out almost everyday into those people who had been having problems into their partners on which we can say that it is normal.

Relationships or marriage life cant be perfect but doesnt mean that you should be tolerating and criticizing into those small imperfections on which we know that it could definitely happen.
You better read what you wrote first.

First you said it was normal, then you said we shouldn't tolerating and criticizing small thing, so which one is right?

If a woman demand something from the man, the man is allowed to demand something too from the woman.

Quote
We cant be perfect too on which we might be able to say up something bad towards our partner and this could cause up that possibility on having those divorces or what.
I don't see anything wrong, I'm happy to see the man free from jail.

When it comes to financial decisions then both husband and wife does have that needing up to share their ideas and opinions and decide on which one they would be that trying to apply or do with.
In speaking about savings and other related stuffs then it would be that something crucial because money is that a foundation that you would be needing up to take care on with specially when you are raising your own family. You would be needing up money for you to be able to provide all of the things that they would be needing.
This is why before marriage, better to be discuss and honest.

If your partner disagree with you and you can't tolerate it, move to next woman.

Alone is better than living with someone that can't make your life happier.

The Internet has greatly influenced the minds of today's generations. Women have heard from Instagram that they should value freedom and love money instead of traditional family values. But in reality, it turns out that this confuses them even more and many of them no longer understand what they want. Although it is obvious that the truths that come from our parents are most important, and the traditional family is the highest value of society. It is very sad to see that mass culture is trying to impose easy and stupid ideals on young minds.
Whenever there are contents about small family life with simple lifestyle in rural areas, you will see many comments where people are saying "when you choose wrong husband be like" "when you married with failed husband be like" etc.

I also see many comments from women accounts where they regret for marrying their current husband, if they have a chance to turn back time, they would choose to not marry their current husband.

Most of them said like this "he's a good father, soft spoken, willing to help domestic work, know how to treat me, never cheat, etc, but he has no ambition and our life are stuck even we're in 10 years of marriage, I regret bla bla bla".

It was Preston and Stoke mate. Those teams can't be used to benchmark Nunez's performance. Preston and Stoke ain't EPL team. The better to keep lower your expectation for him. I know it's good seeing him scored a lot in that two games, but his opponents ain't serious club.  Cheesy
I think Slot will still sell him because he has Ekitike comes to the club.
It's true though. Cheesy

But, Liverpool will meet Milan and Athletic Bilbao in the next friendly match, I think they're enough to prove the quality of Liverpool have.

Nothing new, Nunez always turns up during preseason so I am not surprised though he has been on that for three seasons now. I don’t see him starting no matter his form yet. Ekitike is Arne slot choice and signing and for him to allow the club to spend €95m on a player I don’t think that he would want to see the player on bench because it will be questionable by the Board. Every manager tries to prove that their choice of signing always the best option and they give them more playing time so I see Ekitike actually playing more as the striker.
Some people also said the same.

They said there was a time Klopp want to sell Nunez, but Nunez showed a good improvement which remove Klopp intention to sell him. Now Nunez did it once again, he perform when he's not in a good situation.

The improvement that I see merchants don't have to set up or spend more time to accept Bitcoin payment, because Square already sell the hardware which is ready to use.

It's just their wish, in order words they want to be rich as possible, not really to ensure generational wealth.

In reality, there's a proverb "shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations", they don't need to think about the fourth kids, what they should focus are the third kids where they don't have any control since they're already dead.

Anyway, before they think about generational wealth, better they need to focus to control their spending first Cheesy those young generation like to wasting money for unnecessary thing.

It seems Onana's injury really give Manchester United fans joy.  Their club is trying to approach Martinez to join as their new goalie. I think he's an upgrade from what they have. However, only hope them to be cautious with Martinez's attitude and mannerism.
The only thing that is doubting me is that Martinez's asking price (£40m), which is utterly non sense. It's not worth with how old he is now. Do you guys agree to see Martinez to come as Onana's replacement?
If Manchester United successfully sign him, he's the only one signing that good for Manchester United.

How can you look at Dibu Martinez and say he’s not worth £40m, with what he has achieved he’s over £40 even at his age. Goal keepers performance are not really affected by age, instead they get better with time (age), Check your stats.
I’m not sure Dibu would even want to go to Man United.
This is about the signing fees, well I do agree with him if it was ridiculous for asking 40 Million Euros.

We know Martinez contribute a lot in Argentina and perform good in Aston Villa, but his market value is small due to his age, he's only worth 14 Million Euros. Most of the time, when a team sign old goalkeeper, they will sign with cheap fees, but they will pay high salary.

In this situation, Manchester United need to pay high fees + high salary.

The power of new haircut. Cool

Darwin Nunez is on fire during pre season, he scored one goal against Preston North End and hattrick against Stoke City. He's making Arne Slot's life difficult because Liverpool have sign Ekitike and it would confuse Slot to choose which striker to be in starting lineup.

I think Slot will choose to sell Chiesa and keep Nunez.

just another bubble waiting to pop? Huh
Bubble to pop only happen in you live in country with shitty lifestyle as an average e.g. Japan.

Even the fertility rate is low, but if the country can pay high and the average people can have decent lifestyle, people from third world countries will move there and make the property price stagnant/rise.

We're witnessing a shift: instead of saving for a home, people are turning to alternative assets, remote lifestyles, or simply accepting long-term renting.
Nope, they choose long-term mortgages like 20 years.

What I know people who choose to turn their wealth to alternative assets are middle upper class, they actually can afford to buy house, but they see other assets are more promising and they can live for "free" because the return of their assets can cover their rent.

Yeah this is no longer about privacy anymore, regardless you buy Bitcoin through centralized exchange or through no KYC P2P/DEX, it's advisable to leave your coins in self custody wallet especially you hold at least $1K.

There are people who worry if they bought tainted coins, there's no way to know if they bought from no KYC P2P/DEX, in this situation it's better for them to buy through centralized exchanges.

The rich know exactly when the economy is bad or good, but they're in safe position because they can take advantage over both situation. While the poor have no choice, they work but didn't earn much, in crisis, they're jobless.

That's why rich people looks have no sympathy because during crisis it's also a way for them to make money and they see it as an opportunity.

With the lost in Club World Cup, it makes a slight drop on Dembele, but overall, Dembele has huge chance to win compared to other candidates. I think it's already clear Dembele will win, there's no more big thing can be achieved by Jamine Jamal in the next months.

Stop dreaming and face the reality. Just because your prediction was wrong, and you called any game is just a fixed game. Come on! how many times the referee didn't give cards to the PSG players?

The investors of this tournament is also PIF. Enough to explain why ref was not fair.  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

The history clearly said how Chelsea beat Barcelona prime, Bayern prime, City prime, and now PSG prime. They're giant slayer.
It's already a different generation, when Chelsea beat those strong opponents, they also have high quality players. Now, their current squad are full of mediocre players, but they beat PSG who have star players.

Neves got red card just because pulling Cucurella's hair, this mean referee not get paid.

But that's okay though, congratulations to Chelsea for winning cheese burger trophy.

This is the end result of underestimating your opponent, lol PSG was overconfident in beating Chelsea easily which ultimately backfired on them. The first half belonged to the Blues, I must say Robert Sanchez and Palmer were a nightmare for PSG. Another mistake PSG made was playing in white making Chelsea think it was Tottenham.  Cheesy Cheesy Just kidding!  Grin
Where's the prove if PSG underestimating Chelsea? they use the same squad with the same formation, they've showed if tried hard to win.

I'm sure this is fixed match.

We know the strength between them, knowing how PSG beat strong opponents like Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, while Chelsea doesn't, PSG should have no trouble to beat Chelsea. We see the domination from PSG in ball possession, but they intentionally make error when they're near Chelsea's box.

I mean, this is just Club World Cup, not a prestige competition, hence they don't really care to become a champion.

FIFA was the entity behind this fixed match.

While paying Ronaldo such an annual salary, they are not able to buy any other player, there are still many rumors in the transfer market where it is heard that big stars from Europe are being offered from Al-Nassr. The team is spending money every season, but they are not competing with Al Hilal. In this regard, if they think they need a good quality manager, then the management should focus on that.
Al Nassr don't really care about to be a champion, they care about their popularity and how to maintain it.

Having Ronaldo is a big expense for them, in modern football, one man show is no longer working.

I'm sure he checked pros and cons of his choice because he's already 26 years old, probably he's going to stay at lest 3 years in Saudi Arabia, that means he (eventually) would come back to Europe when he's 30 years old: at that point I don't think any big team will be interested in signing him, he would join a mid-tab team and that's it. But his bank account will be incredibly high so, again, smart move. Juventus, the team I support, was kind of interested in him but they would have never offered him more than 3-4 mln per year, and we are rebuilding the whole team so also joining Juventus would have been a bet.
This guy was the main striker for Italy's senior team, with him leaving, Italy will perform worse when they're already bad in the first place lol.

I think it's a bad decision, he might able to improve his national team if he play in top leagues, but he choose himself in this situation. Juventus already sign Jonathan David, much better than Rategui.

I don’t understand Ruben Amorim with the players since he join the team as a new coach, he started it with Rashford and now Garnacho, I believe sometimes some coaches see some players as they don’t fit his system but Amorim is to hash of making decisions, Garnacho is a good player and he is still young, it will be good idea if he join any team that wants him because Amorim did not see him part of his squad even if he is guarantee to join the squad for pre season matches.
If he failed to improve Manchester United, he's simply an another version of Ten Hag because Ten Hag kicked Ronaldo, Elanga, De Gea and McTominay. Look what they're now in their new teams, they can still perform.

Now Amorim want to make a big move to sell some of the current players.

Amorim already spend a lot of money to buy mediocre players, if he didn't make it to Champions League, Manchester United might fire him.
