Will Pioli make it to the end of the season without being fired?
Who will make top four in the league?
Which team in the league will overperform?

For me:
Transfer market will be a failure as we won’t have a mid to protect the defense and did not find a convince CF to finish off our chances.
Leao - with the extra space I expect 20gaols and 10a in alll comps - more decisive overall in CL
Musah - no clear position so he will be like CDK and lose confidence quickly
RLC - he will bag a lot of goals and make good on connecting in the final third through his strength
Pioli will stay
Milan, Inter, Juve, Atalanta
Inter will over perform as Lautaro will play wel but defensively their age and lack of depth will be exposed in other competitions.
Napoli will under perform as defensively they will be shakier
Milan will make it furthest to last four again
Milan gets #20 comfortably with a few rounds left
1. fail, same reason as honsano, we got no battler midfielder, the one we have wants to go out
2. colombo if he stays, traore if pioli got the guts to play him
3. RLC because his position should be AMC that can defend
4. i think the management will fired him mid season
5. inter napoli atalanta roma
6. napoli will overperform imo
7. juventus will underperform again imo
8. inter
9. atalanta?

Is there this pool from last year? Would be interesting to see who guessed what 
1. - None. It will be "golden middle". Half or reinforcements will fail, half will show something.
2. - Leao. Simply because there is no one else to pick. All of them already reached their maximum levels. Maybe Origi will show why he choosed to stay, prove entire world wrong and bag 30 goals 
3. - Chukwueze. No particular reason, just a hunch that King Charle's heir will be Nigerian prince. Should be investigated if he's same prince who sends all those emails trying to share his fortune. If yes, winter mercato could be much more promising.
4. - Pulisic. If he stays away from injuries.
5. - Yes. I don't see him being fired (because it would require compensations and further investments into new coach) unless he provide some epic failure (10th place and below)
6. - Napoli, Inter, Juventus, Milan.
7. - Milan.
8. - Lazio.
9. - Inter. Not because they're good, they'll just have most luck during draws.
10. - Napoli (have faith that Garcia is not that destructive)
Avaiting for arrival of exorcist into our boardroom.

You did. There were 10 questions. 
At the end of the season, will we view the transfer market either as a success or failure?
[hard to tell; leaning towards failure, because we barely replace the midfielders]
Who will be our most improved player?
[CdK--well, he still belongs to us and will have a hell of a season at Atalanta.  ]
[I hope it is going to be Musah--because I had low expectations on him.]
Who will be the biggest flop?
[Tomori--I hope I am wrong]
Who will be our best incoming transfer?
[Reijnders--I hope I am not wrong]
Will Pioli make it to the end of the season without being fired?
[probably not]
Who will make top four in the league?
[Inter, Napoli, Juventus, Milan--in that order]
Which team in the league will overperform?
[Fiorentina--based on the first week ]
Who will under perform?
[Monza?]
Which Serie A team makes it furthest in CL.
[Napoli]
Who will win the league?
[Inter]
This is one of the most unsure predictions I have made.

- If CDK plays very well for Atalanta, could last season's market be counted as a success? Because Pioli had a large part in CDK's bad form.
- When we separate the task of purchasing and utilizing, the purchasing team worth 8.5/10
Who will be our most improved player?
- Thiaw
Who will be the biggest flop?
- Chuku Chuku, his strengths and weaknesses are so clear that sly opponents in Serie A will take advantage.
Who will be our best incoming transfer?
- Pulisic, if he gets back to his former level.
Will Pioli make it to the end of the season without being fired?
- Pioli won Serie A with a weaker team, so the top 4 with the current team is a safe zone for him.
Who will make top four in the league?
- Napoli, Juventus, Inter, Milan
Which team in the league will overperform?
- Atalanta
Who will under perform?
- 
Which Serie A team makes it furthest in CL.
- , choking against small teams and tough against strong teams or in cup matches, typical S. Inzaghi
Who will win the league?
- Napoli (jinxing  )

I am pretty sure that by saying jinxing, you are already un-jinxing it. Damn.

> I'd say 75% success. At least 1 attacker and 1 midfielder won't get much screen time...
Who will be our most improved player?
> All existing players tend to regress... I'd say Mike will be our key player this season, surpassing Rafa.
Who will be the biggest flop?
> Between Okafor and Musah.
Who will be our best incoming transfer?
> Tij Reijnders. He may push Bennacer down to benchwarmer.
Will Pioli make it to the end of the season without being fired?
> At least until end of the season he'll be safe. One month after that, I dunno.
Who will make top four in the league?
> We will win the league
Which team in the league will overperform?
> Us
Who will under perform?
>
Which Serie A team makes it furthest in CL.
> AC Milan will at least get into semi-final again
Who will win the league?
> No need to ask...
MILAN! MILAN! SOLO CON TE!
MILAN! MILAN! SEMPRE PER TE!
