Bologna has made it to the Champions League for the first time after a brilliant season. Atalanta and Charles De Ketelaere were wonderful against a terrible Roma which was lucky to lose by only 1 goal a few days after the giallorossi's Europa League exit and La Dea reaching the final. Should Roma have prioritised Champions League qualification over trying to win the Europa League? Parma and Como will be in Serie A next season. Does Fiorentina’s Vincenzo Italiano deserve a bigger...

Federico Chiesa showed flashes of brilliance in Juventus’ 1-1 draw with Roma, which bodes well for Italy heading into Euro 2024, but can he become more consistent? And what of the talk of him going to Roma? With Euro 2024 fast approaching, we discuss our preferred Azzurri team formations and selections. One thing we all agree on is that Gianluca Scamacca is untouchable as Italy’s main striker for the tournament after a barnstorming end to the season with goals galore. We delve into the...
