Whats the point of Serie A?
What is the point of your posts?
This league is a joke. Every opponent bend over against Juventus.
Not really a surprise.
Juve have always been the best and most consistent team in the domestic league while being the biggest choker in Europe with only 2 CL wins and 7 CL-final loses (most of all teams). They have almost always, with the exception of very short stints due to Berluscas emergence for AC Milan in the 1980's and certain other periods, been the most wealthy and best run club in Italy. They have always prioritized the domestic league while the likes of AC Milan were more prone to look towards Europe (European Cup/CL).
Calciopoli enabled them to start from scratch and to use the EPL/two Spanish giants approach of building their own stadium (hence the vastly bigger revenues) and professionalize the football club overall. Add to that a clever sporting team with Nedved and before that Marotta (now at Inter), good coaching choices in Conte (who helped win them their first scudetto in 2012) and Allegri and lastly plenty of great and above average transfers often for a cheap or free like in the case with Pirlo who gave them that extra push.
Add to that Milan and Inter both having some of their worst periods in history (the 2 main rivals of Juve historically and the financially and sporting wise strongest organizations) and you have a very easy path towards domestic dominance.
Teams like Napoli (as good as they have performed) cannot compete with a club like Juve that is way, way richer and which has a much greater pull for top players in and outside of Italy, much bigger revenues, better and more stable board and sporting project etc. Let alone Roma (most underachieving team in Europe compared to their potential IMO) and Lazio.
Actually it was mighty impressive how close a club like Napoli was to win last year.
There won't be any real excitement for the title as long as AC Milan and Inter are where they are although both clubs are improving and on the rise on all fronts (financially especially).
It pretty much equals to RM and Atlético being 2-3 times worse than they are currently. We would be winning every league title as well (we already won 8 in 11 years so our dominance is very clear as well and comparable to that of Juve actually) and both of those clubs (RM and Atlético) would not be showing anything in Europe either. Much like AC Milan and Inter in the past 5-7 years.
Don't forget that AC Milan won a CL title in 2007 and their last league title in 2011. Inter has not won a league title or a CL title since their treble in 2010. So it is not THAT many years ago where they were among the very elite but it seems like a century ago when looking at the total dominance of Juve recently who are on the curse to win their 8th scudetto in a row. Never would I believe to see such a state of Serie A and such dominance from any team. On the other hand I did not expect Bayern to win 6 league titles in a row (on course for their 7th in row) either or us winning 8 out of 11 league titles since 2008.
In any case despite Juves domestic dominance the league is on the rise as a whole. Economically, in terms of spending on the transfer market (only second to the EPL and actually ahead of La Liga), talent work and Italian giants like AC Milan and Inter are slowly but surely waking up. In particular AC Milan. Roma, despite their notorious inconsistency, had a historical CL run last season where they reached the CL-semifinals and they are building their own stadium and aiming very high (top 10) in the words of their president. So a lot of unfulfilled potential in the league. Probably more than anywhere else really.
