This is a tough question to answer. With so much talent in Serie A no wonder it is so hard to answer. So let me guide you through some of the top teams in Serie A...

Juventus: Possibly the most famous Italian teams is that of
Juventus. They have an experienced Defence,
Midfield and Attack. Starting with the Defence...
Illiuno (sorry if that’s not the way its spelt) he
Is an experienced Italian defender who can cope
At any level of attack and pressure. He has
Played for Italy a few times now and knows his
Stuff about the game, he also keeps Juventus's
Defence in line. Montero is another of Juventus’s
Central defenders and he as Illuino is a
International that can take the ball away from attackers
And feed the ball forward quickly, now not forgetting
Lillian Thuram who is one of the
Best right backs in the world, he gets forward
Down the lines and helps whoever is the right
Winger whoever that is, either Tachinardi or
Zambrotta, they can play either wing and Thuram
Gets forward and crosses balls onto players
Feet or head.

Moving onto the Midfield and what a
Brilliant one it is, Edgar Davids is their main
Defensive Midfielder and tackles to perfection,
Even through them glasses! Del Peiro also
Sometimes plays in the middle spraying balls
Right, left and centre, Del Peiro is also a great
Free Kick taker and scores a few by a free kick.
Tacchinardi and Zambrotta work the wings with
Tacchinardi on left and Zambrotta on right, these
Two are young and experienced at a high level, as
They play for Italy, they are speedy and turn and
Leave defenders for dead.

Onto the Strikers and some popular names are
Mentioned here, including the highly rated
Marcelo Salas, when you have got the money to buy
Such players like Salas, why not spend it? Trezueguet
Is also another class young Frenchman who is a regular
For Juventus. Also a promising Ukranian
International known as Kovelenko has shown just
How good he is. Overall Juventus have a great
Midfield and attack, Defence needs a bit of
Investment i think.

Now onto their keeper Buffon, Italy have such great keepers
Like Buffon, Toldo and Peruzzi, but Buffon is the one Italy pick
Over the other two, why? Because he is one of the best keepers in
The world and has stop some pelters of shots and saved them.


Inter: In Opinion Inter has the best strike force in Serie
A. This time i will start with the Stike-Force...
First of all we have the No.1 Striker in the world
Christian Vieri, Well he isn't No.1 for nothing,
Great skill, stamina, strength and finishing all in
This player, works well with my next player i am
Gonna mention Ronaldo! One of the best players in
In world is that man and is Brazil's star player, He
Had a tough time with injury out for almost year and
Has only just come back, coming on as a sub for the
Last ten minutes or so in matches this season.

Onto Midfield and they have a Dutch international
Called Seedorf, who plays on Right Wing or centre
Midfield, he is a strong player who likes to get
Foward and never gives up. Dalmat is another of
Inter's midfield who plays with Di Baggio, who can
Also play up front, or Dalmat plays with Seedorf.
Dalmat is their main Defensive midfielder and has
Also played for France, he is young, 22 in fact and
Can tackle a ball cleanly.

Onto The defence where newly bought this season from
Arsenal, Nelson Visas works in the defence for Inter
And is proving to be great there and fits in well. he
was bought in replace of Laurent Blanc, who
Went on a free transfer to Man Utd.
Inter also have a good keeper in the name of Toldo, he may not
Get picked for Italy as their No.1 keeper, but he is good enough
To get there someday. So overall in Inter it’s
the same case as Juventus, good attack, good midfield need a
a great defender to toughen up the defense.



Milan: Now, Milan, starting with the defense and a great Left Back
At this club is Maldini. Maldini has played for Milan all his
Playing career so far and has proved how good he is even at
His age by staying in The Italy squad, he may not be one of
The fastest left backs in the world, but he is one of the best.
Another player that is still playing and has been at Milan a
Long time is Costacurta, he dosen’t play every game but
When he does play, he can carry the ball out of the defense
And takes it forward. Milan have a young defender that has
Surprised everyone and got into The Argentina squad, his name
Is Colccini, he is young and amazing for his age, he is a joy to
Watch.

Onto Midfield and a Italian International named Albertini is their
Defensive Midfielder, he is a hard working individual and sprays it
Out to the wings a lot after he has won the ball. Boban a Croatian who
Has now retired from International football, he still plays for his team
Though and is a strong left winger, who can also play in the centre.

Onto attack and recently bought this season Fillipo Inzaghi works along
With Shevcenko who play know each others moves and understand each
Other. Shechenko is one of the world greats and Inzaghi, although is still a
Great player and plays for Italy, Inzaghi must be privallidged to play
With such a brilliant player as Shevchenko. Javi Moreno is a backup for
Either Inzaghi or Shevchenko but he can still partner up with either of the
Two strikers and score goals, Moreno has played for Italy, not many times
But is a good investment.

Overall with Milan they have a great defence and attack, but it’s the midfield
Where they need investment I think.


Lazio: Gooooo Lazio! That is their chant and they are a class team. Starting with the
Defence, Nesta and newly bought Jaap Stam work in the middle and are proving
To be the hardest defence for attackers to get through. Nesta at 25 and at his current
Performances, think what he is gonna be like when he is that little bit older, He will
Be one of the best even though he is already a top player. Jaap Stam bought by Lazio
For 12 Million off Man United, well everyone knew he would be just as good as he
Was at United and he was as good when he played for Lazio.

The Midfield, a tough one at that with Simeone, a Argentine who works hard as their
Defensive Mdfielder. Karel Povorsky plays on the right wing for Lazio and scores goals
Sometimes and crosses balls accurately. He is speedy Czech and plays for his country.
His Country, Czech Republic value Povorsky as a essential player. Now one of Spain’s
Best players plays for Lazio, mainly plays on The Right Wing, but also can play centre is
Mendieta. He was bought of Valencia and so far has seemed to improve the team, he is a
Skilled player and works hard.

Onto attack and the partner for Batistuta for Argentina, who plays for Lazio is Hernan Crespo.
Since moving to Lazio he has been a valuable asset to the squad and plays up front with
Kovacevic or Lopez, depending on whoever gets picked, Simeone Inzaghi is a backup for the team who plays up front and has played once for his country which is Italy, Lazio haven’t played him
Much and soon could make a move. Lopez who has played for his Country, Argentina and plays up front for Lazio sometimes, as he is used in a squad rotation system with Kovacevic. These two Kovacevic and Lopez are both great players, but they swap around a lot at Lazio.

Overall Lazio have a good defense, midfield but need a better partner for Crespo I think.



Roma: One of the most richest clubs in Italy and have a quality team. Starting with Defence. Samuel and Carlos play in the centre back positions for Roma and are young and fast, Aldair is another player that plays for Roma at the back but at his age of 35, struggles to get a first team place, Aldair has played for Brazil many, many times but it looks like he might finish his football career soon at a lower status club. Antonio Carlos is the replacement for Aldair for Brazil and he has played good for Brazil, Roma value Carlos’s place in the team and will want to hang onto him. Walter Samuel who is playing for Argentina a lot patrols the back for Roma with Carlos. Onto Left Back and Candela who has played for his Country many times works at Left Back, Candela got a medal at the last World Cup for his performances for France and that just says it all really, a quick, tough Left Back who can play on Left Wing as well. Now to Right back and a familiar name plays here and also plays for Brazil, his name is Cafu! Cafu is a tall individuel and often wins the ball in the air, he gets forward down the right channel and crosses the ball into the box.

Onto Midfield and in the centre is Emerson. Emerson is a tough defensive midfielder and provides good balls, He plays for his country Brazil and works hard for them too. In the centre as well is Tommasi, Tommasi was only recently played for Italy a lot, before Italy didn’t play him but now he has stepped up his game and plays rather a lot now for Italy, For Roma, he has always been first team and now that he has improved he is still their first team choice. Onto The Right Wing and Totti plays here but can also play anywhere in Midfield or even Striker, he is a great dribbler, finisher and passer of the ball and is very skillful, he turns and leaves players for dead and no wonder everyone likes this man.

Onto the attack and The man they call the next Maradona is Gabriel Batistuta. Batistuta is known world wide for his ability and is one of the most famous footballers of all time I think I can safely say. He has so many caps from Argentina he don’t know what to do with them all! Along side Batistuta is usually Totti but Totti seems to have moved to a more attacking midfielder type player so Batistuat gets support from him. Balbo who has played for Argentina a bit is getting on a bit now is a backup for Roma and still scores goals.

So Overall I think Roma are the best Italian Team. They have it all great Defence, Midfield and Attack. But if some of the other teams work in areas that need improving, they could challenge Roma to being the best Italian Team.

Thanks for reading, Scott.
