MilanNews writes how Napoli are the pace setters and have of course been very impressive in the first 14 games of the season, but there are still 72 points available as well as the variables between now and June such as the World Cup, the break for it, Champions League round of 16, the Coppa Italia and how teams react under pressure.
The big names and champions in the other European leagues are – some more, some less – struggling in these first three months. Real Madrid are second behind Barcelona in LaLiga with 32 points in 13 games and have just lost to Rayo Vallecano. Bayern Munich have 31 points in 14 games (1 more than Milan). Arsenal
lead the Premier League with Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham having had their struggles.
Napoli’s 10 consecutive victories are very impressive and it forces many to think Milan, Juve and Inter are simply not allowed to make mistakes. The draw with Cremonese is disappointing, but the break – as happened during the lockdown – will be able to re-scatter the cards.
