Milans chances this season depends on what happens with their coach, I don't expect them to be a serious team under Gattuso, but if they sign Conte, I'd put them at the same level as Roma, Inter and Napoli. at this moment they're more Lazio, Atalanta level for me.

with gattuso, they had the 3rd most points in the championship behind juve and napoli, with a pretty crappy squad. it's all down to their midfield, which is still underwhelming for any squad aiming a top4 finish.

Modric to Inter actually happening?
Of course but he is waiting for Inter to sign Messi first...
1. No chance of Real letting him go after Ronaldo left
2. FI reports a loan with option - Modric isnt exactly an unproven 19 year old
3. Why would he go to a team that barely got to CL from being a 3 time CL champion (in a row)
4. If Modric is so easy to get dont you think Pjanic would have been sold already and we would sign Modric and Pogba?!

yeah, but I've always felt it's more easy for a coach to do well if he comes mid season, as the squad is highly motivated to prove themselves and put the bad experience behind them.

after an impressive run of form (8 wins in 9 matches from January to mid-March) they went close to seriously challenging for Top4 spots in spring, but as soon as it was in their sights and the pressure increased, the team buckled and lost any CL hope with 2 losses and 4 draws. of course you can't judge a coach from half a season, but Gattuso is hardly convincing to me.

the midfield is disappointing, I agree, only player there I like is Kessie.

Here’s mine.

Roma
Juventus
Inter
Napoli

We’ll drop enough points as Ronaldo will be rested and there’s no Higuain.

If they managed to pull it off Serie A will be the competition to watch. But they have already got 5 new starters in Asamoah, Vrsaljko, Martinez, Nainggolan and maybe De Vrij. Adding two more will mean a whole new team. This rarely works as intended.
