🔥 What did the weekend show? Inter, 👑 on their own? Roma, Como... 👀 The Serie A weekend is now over, and with today’s two matches, the third round of the league will be as well. We are still only in the very early stages of this season, but a few verdicts have already come in.  Watch the entire Serie BKT live with LaB Channel on OneFootball: subscribe for just €9.99 a month! We know, for example, that as predicted, Inter are still the team to beat . It was already clear on paper, but the pitch has confirmed it . Three wins from three matches - nothing extraordinary so far - plus the icing on the cake of that crazy comeback against Napoli: an exciting run, top of the table alongside Roma, and the feeling, this time for real, of having not quite two full teams but at least plenty of quality alternatives available. Against the Azzurri, Chivu called on Thuram, Curtis Jones, Carlos Augusto, Çalhanoglu and Bonny from the bench, managing to turn around the 0-2 lead Allegri had built. Just a few days before their Champions League opener, the Romanian coach allowed himself the luxury of rotation against the runners-up of Italy, and still came away with three points (however hard-fought they were). 🤔 Are Roma and Como the real deal? This opening stretch of Serie A has also told us that the two genuine challengers to Inter in the Scudetto race seem to be Roma and Como , with Juve and Milan still in the midst of a full revamp and a Napoli side that is changing its identity and already sits 6 points off the top . Gasp and Cesc, then. The Giallorossi are the best story of this start to the season. The Champions League money brought a high-level transfer window, the enthusiasm around the club is as strong as ever, and then there is the Malen factor , devastating since he landed in Italy. The return to the Champions League, however, could drain a lot of energy from Gasperini’s team, more mentally than physically , and that is why keeping pace with Inter could prove difficult.  The same goes for Como, who have added plenty of quality to their squad but will have to deal with midweek European commitments. For Fabregas, as for Gasperini, the task is made harder by the fact that very few players in the Como and Roma squads have previous Champions League experience , unlike the far more battle-tested Inter group. 👀 If Inter go deep... So, is the league already over? Far from it, because thankfully football is played on the pitch and that is the only place where we will get our answers . On paper, there is one clear favourite, but a lot can still happen. What their rivals must hope for, then, is that the Nerazzurri go far in Europe, as happened two years ago. Back then, the team that benefited from the run that took Inzaghi’s Inter all the way to the final in Munich was Conte’s Napoli, who took advantage of a few league slip-ups from their rivals and ended up celebrating in Piazza del Plebiscito . Inter’s transfer business suggests it was designed to raise the bar in the Champions League as well, after the flop against Bodø/Glimt in February. Into an already powerful engine, they have added Premier League horsepower , with Jones, Spence and Stones bringing experience but above all dynamism . The goal is to go as far as possible in every competition, which is exactly what everyone else will be hoping for too.  This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
