Serie A Red and Black List After Three Rounds (Not an AC Milan List): Allegri, Napoli, Frattesi

1. Red list: Lazio + Gattuso + Frattesi; the team, manager and player have achieved a three-way win, and it is also a low-cost redemption. Lotito has finally received a return from his team-building efforts. Gattuso, who assembled players such as Pinamonti, Gudmundsson and Frattesi, finally produced his own 4-3-3 system. Frattesi also finally realized that continuing to insist on staying at Inter had little meaning. Three goals that were not particularly difficult or spectacular perfectly showed his style of play. Hopefully, his average of one goal per game can continue at least until the next match against Milan! Let his market value rise quickly so Inter can recover its investment!

As for Roma, Inter, Milan, Juventus and Como, they have all performed as expected. Some have genuinely improved, while others need further observation, so they will not receive special praise for now. 2. Black list: 1. Fiorentina: Following the same evaluation formula used for Lazio, the only option is to place the blame on Grosso, and this decision itself also belongs on the black list. Completely rejecting last season's and this season's coaching decisions after only three matches shows shortcomings in the management team's choices. “A golden head, iron legs, and a fragile waist” — this is the result of building a team over one summer. The forward line is still acceptable, but for the midfield and defense issues, Grosso should not take all the responsibility. The club's centenary celebration could turn into a relegation battle.

2. Napoli: A chairman who relies too much on his own operational approach has never truly viewed the head coach as a decisive factor. The Serie A titles won by Napoli have been attributed more to his recruitment and off-field management. However, once the northern three clubs and the capital teams seriously enter the competition, he knows Napoli's progress may be limited. The club originally wanted to bring in Allegri to secure Champions League qualification. After all, although Milan's squad last season fell slightly short, it also showed Allegri's huge potential. However, Napoli's assembled squad has aged significantly, leading to a major decline. In reality, it is far behind Milan's core group — De Bruyne? McTominay? Hojlund? Combined with Allegri, Napoli's decline may represent a cycle that began unexpectedly and may now end unexpectedly.

3. Udinese center-back Solet: In Udinese's match against Lazio, defender Omar Solet was substituted due to an adductor problem after only 37 minutes. He felt pain in his right thigh after a sprint with the ball. Although he tried to continue, he was soon unable to carry on and then requested a substitution. After the match, head coach Runjaic said the injury had a major impact on the team's tactics. Solet was visibly limping when he left the field, and the specific injury and recovery timeline will require further examinations. This also led some observers to believe that the previous decisions by certain clubs and Serie A and Premier League managers not to sign him may have had some basis. Udinese's €30 million-rated potential investment has suffered a major setback.
