A list of the top 10 most sizzling attractions that the upcoming season of Italian football holds, with a brief analysis of what makes them so interesting.
1. Zdenek Zeman’s attacking flare:
The Czech international was a phenomenon at the helm of Serie A triumphant Pescara, leading them to promotion in the most outstanding fashion. His attacking antics have seen him return to the big stage to display his famed attacking style of football.
His arrival at the Rome outfit has been accompanied with the injection of a lot of energy in the Giallorossi camp. The gloomy atmosphere that had taken over the capital club following a dismal campaign in the last season, and the resignation of Luis Enrique
has been replaced by an industrious empire under the new regime, which is not afraid to spend money where necessary.
The coach has a famous prowess with two things, attacking football and youngsters, and the manager who believes that any pass that is not vertical to be a waste has already signed the likes of Mattia Destro and Panagiotis Tachtsidis. Moreover the signings
of defenders http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ivan-c17215 Piris, Federico Balzaretti and Dodo also point out that there is a lot of method to the man with the attacking madness.
Expect rekindling of the good old AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 in a recent friendly, to challenge for the Scudetto next season.
2. Lorenzo Insigne, can he live up to the promise?
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003-owned striker came out of the veil of oblivion under the youth specialist Zdenek Zeman, who has given the budding star a polish that he deserved at Pescara. The 21-year-old has been called up for the senior team for the upcoming season to play
with one of the most promising teams in all of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926. Moreover, the youngster has a dream opportunity as his arrival coincides with the departure of Ezequiel Lavezzi to Paris Saint-Germain, and the striker is being widely viewed as a replacement for the outgoing
star. Also the Partenopei attacker is in no mood to lay his pulsating energy to rest, and has already stunned people with some fabulous goal scoring in the pre-season friendlies.
Combine the wonderful talent of the short-heighted striker with the opportunity to be a part of the famous trio of the Azzurri in a team that is known for nurturing their talents into stars of tomorrow, and what you have is a recipe for cooking the spectacular.
Fingers crossed, but Insigne might just be the next young player of the year at Serie A.
 3. Napoli coming of age, coming for Scudetto?
The recent story of the Partenopei has been nothing short of spectacular. From the wrecks of bankruptcy to the riches of today, Aurelio De Laurentiis has pulled a magical turnaround for the club. However, there was still the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Aurora-c38560 of the beginner’s luck
surrounding the last season of the Partenopei, which on one hand featured the spectacular win against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786, also saw the team take a few steps back to lose the UEFA Champions League spot in the last season.
However, now the club seems to have come of age and at the same time pulsating with the energy to be the ‘so much more’ that it has always looked capable of. On one hand the Azzurri have wisely held onto players like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Edinson-Cavani-c11955 despite receiving some
serious interest, and made permanent the move of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ezequiel-Lavezzi-c13073.
The defence was widely exposed as the Achilles’ heel of Napoli and the acquisition of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Federico-Balzaretti-c13451 state that Walter Mazzarri will not overlook the prevalent problem get the better
of them this time around.
With the team all set to take on the new season, it seems that the Naples outfit’s absence from the UEFA Champions League might just prove to be the blessing in disguise to help them onto a surprising Scudetto run in the upcoming season.
