Bro for the next two years this league is locked for us. :D
that could well be the case, mate. if you read more closely, you will see I never said anything going against that besides drawing up a hypothetical scenario.

Shit, I'm gonna have to find the post then I guess? You also said that Vidal wasn't world class, 2 fucking years ago, in his best days with us.
no, he wasn't, and I stand by that. But how is that even remotely equivalent to implying that an average-at-best player like Nocerino is somehow comparable to Vidal.

I am telling you, you are drunk again ... then again, not making sense is your usual state of mind anyway :p

seriously, bitches, learn how to read first, then we can talk.

never said Milan will be a serious title challenger for sure; said that they could become one if Mihajlovic turns out to be the right man for the job, which is always a big if. And no, no other team is really good enough to challenge even a weaker Juve, so if Milan doesn't become it, there will be no challenge to speak of.
And if you don't believe Juve is weaker than last year ... well, then there really isn't much to discuss here.

you've got your stupid ass drunk again, haven't you? :D
Inter and roma have better coaches and much better squads than milan. Milan's chances at best are at napolis level though the latter have been at a higher level for years now.


Juve's only enemy is themselves or a 1st year Garcia roma

Injuries are hard to predict, and Roma were hit pretty hard by them last year, but without numerous injuries they will be a serious challenger. They had to fight against a super strong and non stop winning Juventus. They imploded mostly because it's hard to give your everything, keep winning and realize it's futile because Juve are winning even more. It breaks you.
This year they kept the core and strengthened where they were thin. If they start with confidence, connect more wins in a row and see Juve not doing as well as usual, it will actually work the opposite way compared to the previous years. They might have the psychological edge this time. Add the fact that they have a pretty good team and there you have a very (only) serious challenger.
It's gonna be a huge surprise for me if Roma don't finish top 2 come late May.

Roma's problems are defence and Garcia.

If they bring in 2 quality defenders and drop Garcia for Montella I would even consider them on par with us.

Should be more competitive than the past 2-3 years. There is still time till end of mercato but Juve have lost pieces that won't be easy to replace. Also, another year removed from the influence Conte had on building the culture of the current team will further weaken Juve. Allegri is a good coach and a better, more astute tactician than Conte but he doesn't have that cutting edge mentality and the more he makes Juve a team in his image, the weaker and more vulnerable Juve would become, at least in that regard.
This being said, Juve are still the clear-cut favs until another team shows to be good enough to dethrone them.

Inter have had a good mercato but there is also Mancio at the wheel for that team so that settles it for me - they won't challenge and could well have turned into a dumpster fire by December, IMO.

Roma can amount a serious challenge with the addition of a couple of solid defenders but in the end they are still more likely to implode than prove to be resilient enough to win it all. They simply lack the team culture of a winner and no roster talent can topple that flaw.

Am curious to see how Napoli and Fiorentina fair under the new coaching regimes but in the end, they will most likely be still just Napoli and Fiorentina. Same goes for Lazio - even when they are good, their good is just not good enough.

So, besides a more mentally resilient Roma (on which I would not bet much, tbh), the only team I think can seriously challenge Juve would be Milan, depending on how the whole Mihajlovic thing works out. Obviously the roster can still be improved upon but, in the end, Milan will live or die by the coaching decision as that's the most crucial moment in building a team and a winning culture.
If Mihajlovic manages to bring the pieces together and change the mentality of the team, I can see Milan becoming something of a dark-horse challenger, similar to how Juve were in Conte's first year at the helm. Not having to deal with the distractions of playing in Europe could well play an important role in such a scenario.
you are not really saying anything with that statement, which can be applied to any top team with a fairly new coach, your prediction is basically i was right all along :D milan is a joke from the top down and as long as the top is rotten then it will continue to be that way

Roma are Roma. They are master of self destruction. If they can overcome THAT, then they'll be dangerous.
