Atalanta was already a tough team, and now the confidence of being European champions. What I saw from them in MatchDay 1 reminded me a lot of what I saw from Spalletti’s Napoli in their scudetto-winning campaign. Add to that, they have been very smart in this transfer window and have had the best summer window in all of Italy. Retegui, Brescianini, Samardzic, and now Bellanova, who was one of, if not the best RightBacks in Serie A last season with Torino. Atalanta could truly be a dark horse here this season.

  1. This year is the best shot on winning it since ever.

    This is their year, yes Inter is crazy good for Serie A but they can try it.

  4. This is great to see to be honest. We need more competition in our league and then in Europe.

  6. Andddd it is just Bellanova lol… all second hand and 3d hand Serie A players

  7. Really hope he develop under Gasp, he has a lot of talent and he already become a lot better in only 1 year

  8. Gasperini is very creative making Atalanta a real contender.

  9. Always find it jarring when people say a team “is” doing something rather than “are”.

    It’s very American.

  10. Best right back last season? I don’t even know if he could have a top 3 spot

  15. Honestly, despite I would absolutely love to see Atalanta winning the Scudetto, if they are going to finish this transfer session losing both Koopmeiners and Lookman (literally the two best players of the team) as it’s highly expected, in addition to the serious injuries of two key players like Scamacca and Scalvini, I can:t see how they could ever be a better team compared to last season.

    It would be another *insane* masterclass by Gasperini and with this team involved never say never, but realistically speaking the chances to win it all are really really low
