It's great to see a small promoted club doing well in Serie A considering how crappy most of the teams below the top 7 or 9 positions usually are... While the Italian giants like AC and Juventus drew Chievo racked up 3 goals (this must be a record in Serie A! :D) to take a 4 pt lead at the top of the table... can they go all the way? They could certainly get a European spot... could you imagine Chievo playing in the Champions League next year? As boring as Serie A is Chievo is providing some excitement... it will be interesting to watch.

Although i don't think they can win the Serie A......they are definately in contention for a European spot.....i really admire them...Hope to see them in Europe next year.:D
I think it's great the start they have got this season, but I still think the big guns (roma, juventus) will be the ones who will be fighting for the scudetto near the end of the season (go ROMA)
But then again, they could make me look silly and win it/

it is always good to see a underdog team beating the big guns... i really hope to see them in next year european competition...
for them to win the serie a i don't think so... there is an example here in EPL, ipswich did really well last season and now they are struggling at the bottom of the league as they are involve in europe this season... obviously they don't have enough quality players to rotate among them...

Didn't watch they played before. So, not sure how good they are. But, if they continue their current good form, a european spot is within sight.
Unfortunately, I think they'll suffer next season. As a small club, they might have to sell their better players to the so-called big clubs.
Hope they prove me wrong...

It would be nice, but i dont think so.
Every year, at the start of the season, there's always one small club who's doing great, and suprises everyone. But ussually after a while, the results begin to get worse, and they eventually dont get much farter than the first 8.
I think that Scudetto this year will be between the grands, and hopefully AC milan will win ;)
But Chievo will DEFinetely get a european spot, no doubt about it, maybe even in the Champions League (if they get lucky, and nothing happens to the club)

I really hope INTER will win. To bad so many players are injured. Looks like any good player that comes to inter gets injured :(

And is it Inter like to buy 'sicknote' players? :D :rolleyes:
Got off to a great start. I think they'll slowly slide and end up in the UEFA or Inter-Toto cup cup.
