Hello Rank Squad!
Welcome to the sixth and final episode of our Big Season Preview Series – as we culminate in the casa di calcio, Italy! With Milan holding the title, Inter snapping at their heels, Juventus hoping for a return to power, there’s a major title race to discuss, first and foremost – and then a dive into the chasing pack, last year’s third place side Napoli, who have lost a tonne of major names; the winners of the window (?) Roma, under Jose Mourinho; and Maurizio Sarri’s new-look Lazio as well!
Can Fiorentina and Atalanta cause upsets this season, and who is best placed right now to seal the European places? Next we look at some candidates for regression – those who have either had tough summers with big names departing for brighter shores, or where managerial changes have led to major question marks.
We finish with a look at the promoted sides, especially Monza – whose business has been delightful, and a few of those Serie A stalwarts who might well be slipping into trouble; before Jack and Sam pick a player to watch each this season.
It’s Ranks!
