Fuck us for not snatching one point against rube. This was historic chance to fuck rube and we shat our pants,who gives a fuck for beating Sampa and Udinese. . This was their worst season in last 10 years and they still won two trophies and qualified for CL. I'm extremly pissed.

I hate them but let's be honest, they gonna be pot2 and huge chance ending up in our group :palm: knowing our "luck"
Lille pot1 means...they won't meet us.

sure, but I wouldn't want to play against Lille either. Where would Lille be otherwise? 3rd spot?

I hope Rube get drew with 2 big teams in ucl next season given that they will be in pot 4 and we have many big teams in pot 2. So hopefully they will have to draw 1 of Liverpool, Madrid, psg or man utd plus any of league title winners: mancity, Atletico Madrid, Bayern. So that they will fuck off to uel they avoided now.

All Juventus needs to compete is a proper midfield that can put 2 passes together. Pjanic was more important to that team than anyone except CR7. It was stupid to let him go without a replacement.

Also it's games like this why I don't see Atalanta as a new powerhouse. These teams just benefit from not being historical bigs, so they can still get away with playing counterattacking football all the time. Once someone clamps down on them, they fold.

Cristiano is not important to their team really. He is actually counter productive. He sucks all the energy towards him and just spams everything with shots. Works well for his personal stats, but he was never a team player.

Juventus is better off without him for a multitude of reasons and I hope he stays.

Arent they in pot2? Only league winners get po1, but their coeff points are pot2 worthy. Milan in pot4 .

Yeap.
But if City wins that makes it 7 league winners.

Apparently Sergio Conceição will sign for Napoli as the new coach. That's a surprise!

I feel this will improve Milan's chances to get top4 spot next season. Conceição is going to learn the Serie A in his first season and is a big question mark anyway. With someone like Spalletti or Allegri (was rumored to Napoli during the weekend) would have made the more relevant for sure.

Sergio Conceicao is someone who has championship experience as manager and was coached by:
- Jose Mourinho
- Sven-Goran Eriksson
- Hector Cuper
- Fernando Santos
- Roberto Mancini

I think he has sufficient experience and knowledge, both as player and manager, to cope in the league.

What he may not have is the ability to control the locker room, instill a winning culture and cooperate with De Laurentis.


Not saying he's guaranteed to be successful, but his learning curve will be far shorter than you made it sound.

I still cant believe what I saw last night... am I really the only one who noticed Napoli players were literally walking around in the last 10 mins when they actually needed 1 goal to qualify for CL? It’s not even about them not being good enough but there were zero urgency. Insigne at 85th minute wanted to dribble a player in his own half when he has 3 options.. I cant be the only who noticed this, this is not even choking.

Yeah. They looked completely deflated. Pressure killed them and they bottled. After the goal, they had completely resigned themselves to failing and it shown

Conceicao... Not sure Napoli have the players for his ugly style of play. Interesting.

There's no way Conceicao and De Laurentiis will have a functional relationship.

I feel like Napoli missed an opportunity with Spalletti. They already have the players for the type of football he wants to play and would get close to the most from that squad. He would make them a perennial top 4 team imo.

I don't think they have the budget for him.

And he probably prefers Milan or Juventus, since they will probably come knocking.

Maybe they can't afford him without CL. I am still surprised ADL decided to go for Conceicao instead of other low cost Serie A coaches like Inzaghi, De Zerbi, Juric or even Italiano though.

Wouldn't mind Jube in CL, it's a real fun to watch them strugle in this competition.
