Serie A Superthread

Lazio really let Milan take back the momentum at the end there and really paid for it. Maldini coming on made a huge difference : )

Milan fortunate to get 3 points though but winter champions they are

Theo is fast becoming one of the top left backs around, not just his goals but his general play has improved expeditiously.

Buon Natale Tifosi!

Look how dominant Milan have been in 2020 and yet most people are sleeping on the best young team in Europe. Seen The Guardian released a best 100 players in 2020 and Zlatan was the only Milan representative despite being out for the bulk of this season. Just lazy journalism, they'll probably wake up to them by 2022.

Good 2nd half reaction from Inter. Pressure on AC who travel to face Pippo's Bennevento this evening.

Milan sides setting a good pace out front though, low key hopeful of a change in champion this season.

Mr.Nice Guy

Lautaro and Lukaku were so good. Surprised Sassuolo were so poor against Atalanta.

Loved Zaccagni's biciycle kick winner for Verona. Always nice to see a well executed technique. It's here from about 3:06:

Be interesting to see who signs Papu Gomez, seems himself and Gasperini's relationship has completely fallen apart and all the top sides are linked with him.

I think I'd have snapped your hands off to sign him at Milan in previous seasons but the dynamic is so good right now that bringing in a difficult character could upset things.

Inter seem to be making the loudest noises about signing him.

Apparently Juve if Bernardeschi goes, which I think he needs to for his own sake.

Really looking forward to the Juve Milan game, potential to be a cracker.

I predict a draw and a win for Sampdoria

Well on track for that with Inter getting beaten right now.

Tonight's match is massive, psychologically more than anything. Juventus win and it feels like a massive title swing with Inter (likely now) and Milan losing on same matchday.

Any sort of result for Milan would pretty much keep Juve at a manageable distance, especially with Zlatan coming back soon.

justshane

Terrible result for inter in the day that’s in it.

Mr.Nice Guy

Yeah, missed opportunity for Inter. That eases some of the pressure on Milan now.

I don't know. Keeping Juve down tonight is still the most important part of a win tonight

TheadoreT

Wonder if Rafa Leão makes the Euros in the summer, Ronaldo would probably have a decent say in these things so a performance tonight against him could seal his place. Portugal have crazy options up top now.

And now Napoli throw it

Edit: ignore me it's on Premier as usual

Dybala is such a talented little pain in the arse

Milan probably unlucky to be behind here, Çalhanoğlu and Kessie pretty dominant in midfield.

Look at it from the wider angle he had already passed it to a Milan player

But it's Juve

TheadoreT

Bah, on the ropes now.

Downside to having so many players missing, not much quality apart from Diaz on the bench to strengthen

justshane

The bench won it for Juve, Milan players looked exhausted the last 20. What a talent Chiesa is.

Mr.Nice Guy

Dimarco's volley goal was superb. The GOTS contenders at the end of the campaign will be very strong. Looking very close at the top. Roma vs Inter and Juve vs Sassuolo should be good.
