Looking like 22-23 all over again.

- Napoli dominating and strolling to the title.
- Inter with massive defensive issues and only one forward really performing.

Gotta win that empoli game at all cost. Trailing 7 points early this season is no joke

imagine losing to them

Milan played tonight without Theo, Gabbia( their most stable CB), Rejinders, Pulisic, Leao( 1st half)

Basically their core. These guys all played vs us.

Lucky or not , Conte doesn't care. He got 3pts in a difficult ground.

More tests coming. If he wins Atalanta and us @Meazza then we can start to draw conclusions.

Don't have one.
Man, if inzaghi had half of conte ability to set up a proper defense, we would be unstoppable. Instead, we have to rely on whether our players are having proper intensity and running ability to prevent certain things. With conte, you get a feeling it's all system and great positioning drilled into players meticulously.

No excuses.. even without the extra games
Apart from the man city game , we have looked pedestrian so far.

Need a drastic change in the locker room, this pathetic display is not going win any titles

You guys can downgrade Milan all you want (might be right) but that's the reality of current Serie A. Beside us and Juve, zero team is stronger than Napoli in terms of quality. Conte only needs to focus on the rest 18 teams and gets his Scudetto.

Don't expect Atalanta to do anything either bacause that team is like a poor man version of Inter, gungho attack and shit on defence.

Inzaghi infuriates me so much coz he has everything to be a top coach but chooses to shoot himself in the foot on purpose frequently. Last match is a clear example. No brainer to park the bus after 4-2 at 70' but he pushed the two CBs close to Juve box...why? :palm: Versus Milan the stupid trio sub etc. he helps this Napoli to run away with ease.

Season's already done, unless Napoli craters out of nowhere. It's just CL at this point.

Remember Conte's first season? We were cruising in the beginning of the season, it wasn't until Matchday 15 when we started bleeding points left and right. I wouldn't come to a conclusion just yet.

That season he didnt win coz Juve got 33/37 points or something... cant say the same to this Inter.

What do you mean by 33/37 points?
sorry *35 points over 39 maximum in the first 13 matches. Juve did even better than Conte to keep the race.

Now we are already trailling 7 points...scenario is not the same.

Of course you are neve gonna have the same scenario. We are currently trailing 7 points with 1 game in hand, but Napoli could derail quickly just like we did that season as well, we didnt really drop points until matchday 15. I never understand how people can ever write off anything 10 fucking games into the season.

First we must stay close enough to catch up with them when they derail...

Btw I think your linking to Inter 2019 is awkward. That season we must split squad to play CL and EL till final and Conte is shit in rotating squad. Hence the dropping points. This Napoli is more comparable to Conte's first season at Juve i.e. only focus on Serie A. We all see how that went on.
