I really don't know, it's such a random season anything could happen. I've seen Roma fly at the start of several seasons and then fall away badly, so I don't get too carried away about them. The atmosphere around Roma has always been crippling. But they look good so far.

There look like being 6 teams challenging at this point, but by February we'll be able to exclude probably 3 of the teams, because we'll know that they don't have the spirit and quality to make points up. We just don't know which 3 yet.
They're crap but this comeback win and an inevitable win against a decimated Real Madrid (even just missing Sergio Ramos is enough for RM to lose) will give them a morale boost for the next run of games.

But they'll go back to finding ways to drop points, they are specialists at it. Once the going gets tough Inter get flaccid.

As far as I'm concerned the starting point for our season was that Cagliari game.
Inter lost against Barca B last season, dont underestimate their capabilities to fuck up against RM

Agreed.

48 CL goals in 119 games is actually quite poor from someone like him.
Really poor even muller is only 3 goals off hes Cl goals and why i put him behind other strikers off the last 10- 20 years like lewa for example. There has been alot of rubbish talking going around lately about Ibra being the 3rd best player of last 10 years behind ronaldo and messi which is just nonsense.

What Milan is doing now with this group of nobodies + old Zlatan really goes to show how impressive our 2011 title is. They had a good squad with one of the world's best coaches at the helm (Allegri) and prime Zlatan, and yet we beat them with our Matris, Vucinics, De Ceglies and Pepes :)

I miss the hunger, energy and excitement of the 2011 and 2012 seasons.

Yup and aside from average but passionate players that you listed above, each and everyone of our WC players improved under Conte that season as well. Chiellini was always great but took a new step, Bonucci + Barzagli improved massively, Buffon was a goat goalkeeper but did not have a season quite like that for a bit, Pirlo was tossed aside by Allegri and thought to be finished, Vidal+Marchisio jumped multiple levels (though naturally filled their potentials).

Conte and that season will always be close to my heart.

Lewandowski managed to outscore him with 22 goals in 27 fewer matches, Müller who’s not even a striker is pretty much equal with him as you said :lol:

Zlatan is a great player no doubt, but he was relative poor in the CL. Funny no journalists never dared asking him about it

I don’t see nothing special in this Milan team. Yes, Ibra is amazing, and they have a lot of guys who runs. I am pretty confident we can beat them even in our current state.
Milan are not special but I did predict the table to end with us first and Milan second.
We are still the side with the most quality but we are not a team yet.
Milan are coming off a great end to the season and morale is high.
Milan attack but also defend - They are very balanced and this is why I predicted them getting 2nd place.

Inter are more of a firepower but they arent as balanced as Milan in their approach and they have that loser mentality - They could win lots of games but they will lose it when it matters.
Napoli - Nice start but they will fall sooner or later.
Lazio - Tiredness will get to them as well.

As for us - Its up to us to win or lose the Scudetto - We need more malice when we attack while we need to choke our opponent to leave him not choice but just think about kicking the ball away with no gameplan.
MDL is crucial and he is back and I think Demiral can be one of the best covering defenders. Chiellini should still be very important this year and Bonucci well.. we need to make the league fair dont we?!...
