Let's do that so we can be like Bayern and lose all the remaining matches 0-3.
could´t care less if we lost against roma when we are already champions and rest our entire first team for the EL final 3 days later...
so yeah, secure scudetto, qualify for the final and play 11 pelusos against roma... please

It's difficult knowing the lead is cut to 5 or 6, from a psychological point of view. It's not really about how far ahead we are in numbers, but it can bring the team nervous energy because ey are bound to compare or look at Roma's results. And to be honest, the latter are looking in far better shape than we are. I'd go as far as saying that they're beating teams easily, while we are labouring to wins. Some of it may have to do with energy levels, but then 5 or 6 points with 5 to play, is not a difficult number of points to overturn, when you know you've got one massive home game where you can take points off.

Roma are some frustrating bastards. Just fucking lose already, I want to get this league over with so we can concentrate on Benfica.

Actually, even if we did win the league, I bet Conte would still start the first team in Serie A just because.

Nonsense. Assuming we draw Udinese, which is likely the worst result we'll get, we'd be 6 points up. Which is two losses. Our opponents are Sassuolo and Roma away; Cagliari, Bologna, Atalanta at home. Who do you see us dropping points to there, besides Roma? That's right, no one. We'll easily win all 3 home matches, and Sassuolo is a joke. We've already clinched the scudetto. It would take a meltdown of epic proportions for us to drop 8 points in these last 6 games, plus, even then, Roma would have to beat us by at least 3 goals to win on head to head.

Roma also has to play Fiorentina away, Milan at home still. Not to mention Genoa and Catania away as they should win those 2.

They're minimum 5 points back with 5 matches left, and we have 4 of the easiest opponents possible.

Scudetto is clinched even if we lose to Udinese.
