I remember when I was a kid and Serie A was considered the most beautiful championship in the World because the best players either played there, would go on to play there or had already played there. There was also a streak between 1978 and 2006 where every World Cup winning captain played in Serie A at some point in their career

[@tasbhu764]

That’s not that crazy (the captain stat)

[@NIDELLANEUM]

@@tasbhu764 Yeah because Serie A in the 80s and 90s was so huge that of course the World Cup winning captain would have a stint in Italy. Nowadays, World Cup winners joining Serie A isn't seen as something that granted

Still wish we could see some more balance between the Top 5 Leagues. Bundesliga has been dominated by Bayern for 10 years, Ligue 1 has seen PSG winning most of the time (although they have yet to win more than 4 titles in a row) and Premier League has been a "Manchester City VS Liverpool" race for a while now. At least La Liga and Serie A could provide some more balance with the change in title winners. It was nice to see that, after the 9 consecutive Juventus scudettos, both Milan teams have won it, returning to a period where it was normal to see the scudetto change owner

[@chrislosd162]

I'd still say la liga needs more balance

[@NIDELLANEUM]

I always wonder if some day we could see a Serie A similar to how it was Pre-Calciopoli. Back then, 7 teams were always competing for the title, and they were also feared and respected across European Competitions. It would be so beautiful to see, for instance, Inter, Juventus, Napoli, Roma, Milan, Lazio and one between Fiorentina and Atalanta actually going so far that it would not be clear who is going to win a title until the very last match

[@luuduonghy659]

It wasn't because there a big gap between big 7 with the rest That just mean the league itself wasn't exciting since the other midfield team never had chance While Premier League EFL competitive was just unpredicted

[@NIDELLANEUM]

@@luuduonghy659 yeah I know, but there were also cases of teams like Vicenza, Bologna, Torino and Genoa going far in European competitions. Another thing I miss from that era of Serie A football. Back in the day, when Italian teams were in modern Europa League, they fought hard in order to win, and they did win most of the time. Now, they see it as a huge burden, and don't even try to be competitive

Yeah I wonder why not so many bring Ciro Immobile when talking about goal machines. He keeps winning Golden Boots in a championship known for tough defenses

[@Swedishpolymath]

@@NIDELLANEUM I suppose it's the "Well it's the Serie A" because while Italy is footballing wise quite defensive orientated, the quality is not exactly what it used to be in say the 90's to the early noughties. For example when was the last time an Italian team made headlines in the Champions League. Also Ciro Immobile did flop quite hard at Dortmund and Sevilla if I remember correctly which probably affect the perception of the quality of the Serie A whether it's confirmation bias or not. I don't remember him lighting it up in the National team but I've not followed football actively in many years so I might be a bit ignorant.

[@ylldemi7602]

I think that Rrahmani for Napoli is one of the most underrated center backs in Serie A, he has done a fantastic job last year, taking the place of Manolas and having a good chemistry with Koulibaly and now with Kim, he consistently has the most passes completed in games with crazy efficiency and it gets overlooked, also his interceptions, composure and just all round defense is really good.

[@BacterialGrint_]

I agree, last season was struggling with the ball at his feet but this year feels much more composed

[@just_a_yokai1103]

Rrahmani & Lobotka, possibly the most underrated duo

[@pierfrancescocosta6336]

22:40 Typo alert: Mamadou Coulibaly has actually been loaned out to Serie B club Ternana. I think you were referring to Lassana Coulibaly, who is indeed a regular starter for the team. Still, it's a great analysis, I really appreciated it! 🇮🇹🙏

[@meganico98]

Napoli supporter here, and I gotta tell you that now that Juve's dominance is long gone Serie A has turned into basically the Premier League between 2013 and 2017, only not as rich. You never know what's going to happen and there are goalfests almost every matchday. Speaking of our team, at first I wanted ADL's head on a pike following the departures of some of our most beloved players like Insigne, Mertens and Koulibaly; however, Giuntoli (our sporting director) played an absolute blinder this summer by slashing our wage bill by a third while simultaneously improving our depth and keeping us competitive; Kvaratskhelia is a true baller, he kinda reminds me of prime Kaka in how he plays. Kim Min-Jae had the hardest job in my opinion, since Koulibaly basically held our backline together after Albiol's departure, but so far he hasn't disappointed one bit. I'm expecting a fall in form in the second half, and I genuinely don't think we're gonna go all the way to the Scudetto because that's just tempting fate, but so far we've been damn near unplayable.

[@badasstasticusbadass4908]

Right now currently (9/14/2022) we have Udinese, Milan and Atalanta at the top of the table with 14 points each... that's like saying Leicester and Stoke City are at the top with the same points as Man City in the Prem.
