Cagliari has so much giant-killing potential this season..

inter definitely second best team. Not because they beat empoli. Look at their squad depth and it is pretty obvious thay they have solid personnel. They are going to be incredibly tough to beat for most teams.

I wouldn't say 2nd best yet, perhaps among the top 3 teams. Ancelotti's Napoli are shaping up nicely too, and its too early to say which team is better.

Juve are still far ahead though, I think they might break the Serie A record in terms of number of points.

Inter aren't close to Juve and Napoli. I expect them to slip to 4th at least by January.

Rolando Maran though.. newfound admiration at how he has got this Cagliari playing. Beautiful football yesterday, could have easily been 2-2.

Juventus are living rather dangerously at the moment. And Allegri knows that. Except for the Udinese and Napoli matches in the league, and Man Utd and Valencia in the Champions League, they've looked clearly inferior to their level last year. Yet they keep getting points due to the other teams not being clinical enough. If they sit on their laurels, they'll drop points and spark a title race.

You worried about Juve being inferior atm lolol. Why would they go all out in November. They are veteran team and know exactly what they are doing. Serie A is like a warm up for them for CL. They will win Serie A with eyes closed.. the only thing they are gearing up for is to win CL.

Inter has to show good form in december-january period before they can be called second best team. They always have huge drop in form.

Top 4 certainly.

With current situation, I'm 90% sure it's gonna be: Juve, Napoli, Inter, Milan. This might change a bit after winter mercato, although unlikely.

Certainly looks like it. It will be good to have Juve, Inter and Milan in the CL again. Serie A desperately needs a strong Inter and a strong Milan, I always said that these are the only teams which can break Juve's dominance.

Amazing water polo football from the 59th minute of Genoa Napoli. Ball just not travelling due to water logged pitch. But very good Napoli comeback at 1-2 now.
