Bologna-Roma. Gonna check the Fonsecaball, 8 goals in the last 2 matches. Also, Bologna can do a home record win run, 8 wins currently, 9 wins will be a record. They are motivated as fuck, all in for Sinisa!!

Forza Bologna!

Much like what I hope is happening in our dressing room, this year I’ve had something of a mentality change. I don’t really care what Lazio, Atalanta, and Roma are doing because in my head they’re no longer direct competitors for what we want to achieve. I’m all in on wishing Napoli and Juventus the worst luck.

Milan are a different matter, because that shit is just funny to watch.

I still think Juve and Napoli are at least 1 or 2 players ahead of us. We should be comfortably the 3rd best team in the league. Having Conte is what can potentially elevate us higher. But I'm still interested in those teams. No doubt we are closer to them though than we have been in years

Agreed, we’ve started really well but I’m expecting nothing more than 3rd. Still, if there’s a chance to get more, Conte is the right man to take it and I would argue it’s also the right year to try and edge out something more than what’s expected.

Of course, as I say this 1-0 to Napoli and penalty to them.

We have to try and win the title. But we will need some boost from January's transfer session, because as of now, over 38 games, I'm afraid juventus are still a tad ahead, their roster is far deeper than anyone else's.

Watching Roma sweat against Bologna , damn I like that Orsolini kid, bit raw as he is 22 but... I'd like to see him in our jersey one day.
Does he have a buyback clause from Rube tho?

So far, it seems a three horse race between us, Juve and Napoli.

Ofc, we are the underdogs are us but the gap is the narrowest for quite some years... if Lazaro pulls a surprise on us (just like Sensi did), we might have a very fun season.

Dzeko is unstoppable with crosses like that. A true tower to head that in.

Milan will find it really hard to get to CL when 10 man Roma can win in Bologna ( 8 straight wins @home)

Dalbert is being racially abused in Bergamo. Referee issued a warning.

If we have to go by these 4 matchdays, Inter juventus Napoli and Roma are clearly the four best teams. And I do believe their indeed are.

juventus arguably have the best combination of quality/quantity in their roster, but they are going through major changes in gameplay and will need time to adapt, not to forget they have lost for 6 months their best defender.

So this could turn out to be one of the most interesting seasons in the last 20 years or so.

people laughed at me when i said that llorente wouldn't be that bad as bench player. But nah, he is old, slow, he was good 4 years ago..now he already scored 3 goals in 2 games.

You're right. Both teams are chock full of former players: Medel, Poli, Destro, Mbaye, Palacio and Juan, Santon, Zaniolo,

and also players we've been heavily linked to over the years: both Sansone and Soriano before they went to Villareal. Kolarov from before he went to Man City like 10 years ago. More recently Dzeko, Florenzi, Mancini, Pastore

I don't like Orsolini. He's like any number of 'decent' wingers in that he's fairly skillful and will score some nice goals here and there but is very frustrating to watch. He's selfish and/or clueless to his surroundings. He's the type of player to make you scream at your TV, "PASS THE FUCKING BALL" after dribbling instead of passing to an open teammate.

I was impressed by Sassuolo's Traore, who looked very lively and zipped around all over the place making himself useful. He was getting some attention last season at Empoli and he's the one who scored against us in the last game of the season. If I'm not mistaken, juve is behind his move to Sassuolo, the vassal juve.

Impressive choke job by Fiorentina

Game tying goal for Atalanta is disallowed, and then Fiorentina concedes again
