Milan – the shape of the team and its analysis: the club is just finishing out the season
“The Red and Blacks” have noticeably improved their performance at the inner arena. There they will definitely finish in 2nd place. Still, firstly, there were failures in the cup and at the European arena. Secondly, there was simply no serious competition, but the club itself was not impressive. And it remains to be argued what happened first: the decision of the club management to part ways with Pioli in the summer, or the decline of the players. In any case, Roma, in parallel with the departure from the Europa League after 2 defeats, won only in the battle against Cagliari and took 5 points in 5 other previous matches.
Salernitana – the shape of the team and its analysis: it is a hopeless outsider who can punish for neglect
“The Seahorses” are “flying” out, and this is what they were waiting for a year or two ago. Still, the team looked predictable, like a hopeless outsider, only this season. And the relegation to the Serie B had long been sealed. On the other hand, the abundance of defeats was mixed with a 1-1 draw in the struggle with Juventus (moreover, that happened in Turin). However, Verona did not make such a mistake in the previous round and achieved a key victory.
