I always want Juve to win, but if we don’t I’d be happy to see the GOAT win it.
Lippi is retired sir

Well to be fair, a large amount are convinced that a legend such as Allegri is the worst manager we've ever had, even if he's the most successful manager we've had since Lippi. Would be funny to see the debate finally squashed.
Gonna take more than one match per week :disagree:

Doing what's expected? So he was expected to have Milan challenging for the Scudetto?
It is the same thing that happened during his last season with Juve till the January transfer window when he asked Giuntoli for some reinforcements and we know which midfielder was signed.This current Milan squad is definitely superior to our squad and assembled according to Allegri wishes unlike our squad where we have signed random players.

Not lucky at all, I'm saying he would be doing what is expected while having that squad and less obligations. Wouldn't you expect us to place higher in Serie A too in that situation, regardless of coach?
If the coach is as bad as people say then I don't expect someone to win the league.

Yeah 8th place finish similar to what Conte did with Napoli and Chelsea .
Conte is a good manager. A terrible manager would not win the league with Napoli.

It’s still way too early in the season to throw around predictions. Milan definitely made the smartest signings this summer, all aligned with their needs and Max’s vision, and playing once a week is a nice advantage. But that alone doesn’t guarantee a league title. For all we know, we could end up winning the league while Milan finishes 3rd or 4th (no jinx intended).

If he wins or mounts a serious challenge for the scudetto then that'd definitely be an incredible achievement regardless of what Inter or Napoli did in the transfer windows. But don't worry they're shit they wont win the league

I would disagree on their transfer strategy. Cardinale, Red Bird and co. had to sell assets due to their lack of CL $$$ they would earn to keep afloat. Theo went for peanuts and Estupido isn't an equivalent replacement. Their midfield will suffer injuries and fatigue. Modric is great but Rabiot needs 1-2 matches to stop giving af. They have zero viable strikers. Defense is a joke with Pavlovic being their Gatti. Outside of Ricci off the bench it's dubious. The league figured out Al-legri dacdics years ago. So this honeymoon period will be short lived

Serie A is currently tender and weak so they could do. Still think that on paper Inter have the best team but they are an old team and in transition so who knows. No clear favourites this time.

I think so, yeah. You don't?
I dont think majority of the forum considered Milan as a title contender. Its still early in the season and question remains how many games Modric can play, which will tip the scale in one way or another. Allegri imho is a top coach but current Milan side is really poor and I dont see them having what it takes to beat Napoli or Inter to the title. As for JJ, this looks to be another year 0 with top 4 as objective. We dont have a midfield to control the games, our defenders are always on the back foot and Tudor does not look like a coach that would lead us forward. We conceded far too many silly goals already.

I think Modric can play 30 games easily. Guy is a machine. But I agree that the rest of the team is very poor and they will not be fighting for the title. I don't seem them finishing above us to be honest. Will see on Sunday

Milan's squad is not poor at all. They went hard in the market and built a good team with a top coach. Their midfield 3 is great, all 3 are both physical and technical, with Modric as a leader they can really hold their own in any game. Estupinan, Pavlovic and Maignan are excellent. The rest are nothing special but with the strong core they have and clear ideas from Allegri they are enough. Leao is yet to come back for them too.

1 game a week, completely revamped midfield, improved attack.

Pretty much similar scenario to JJ in 23/24 but this time Allegro gets the reinforcements he requested for so he's under pressure to deliver.

I have no doubt Allegro will shit the bed eventually but Tare did a pretty good job in the mercato and the schedule does favor them pretty heavily.
