TFA 2020/21 Serie A Podcast: Week Recap and Serie A's Ideal #9

Published: Nov. 6, 2020, 3:20 p.m.

In the fourth episode of the TFA 2020/21 Serie A podcast, we discuss the numbers and performances of Serie A leaders, AC Milan, who have gone 24 games in all competitions without losing since the June restart (1:50).  We talk about the struggle of Inter, sixth in the league and last in their Champions League group after their loss against Real Madrid (5:50), and Juventus, who are back on winning habits thanks, especially, to the return of the goal-scoring machine that is Cristiano Ronaldo (11:30).  We stress on the pivotal role that physically-structured and astute #9s play in most Serie A’s formations (15:25), before breaking down some of the trends shown by Sassuolo and Atalanta this season (24:15).  Finally, we preview two must-watch matches of the upcoming weekend, Lazio-Juventus and Atalanta-Inter (31:10).
