Roma FC topped the power rankings for Italian League clubs, according to the report issued by CBS Sports on November 5, ten rounds after the start of the season. This classification reflects the teams’ levels and performance in the recent period, independent of the official standings of the competition table. Roma owes its lead to writer Francesco Porzio, who praised the team’s offensive stability and its success in scoring 28 goals to have the strongest attacking line in the tournament so far, despite suffering from absences resulting from injuries.
On the other hand, Inter fell to second place following its defeat in the Milan derby, affected by the way it conceded two goals in the first ten minutes of the match, which is the same problem it suffered from in previous confrontations. Como Club maintained third place, considered one of the most prominent candidates to compete for the title alongside Roma, despite its participation in the Champions League. As for Lazio, it came in fourth place after topping the standings under the leadership of coach Gennaro Gattuso, amid the report’s doubts about its ability to last long due to the disparity in levels between the starting lineup and the substitutes, while Milan ranked fifth, demanding more consistency, especially against less competitive teams.
In terms of the middle positions, Frosinone advanced to sixth place with six wins and two draws versus two losses, followed by Juventus in seventh place after its victory over Napoli, in a move that the report described as positive but insufficient on its own to solve the team’s crises. The report saw Napoli drop to eighth place, recording its worst start in eight seasons, collecting only 14 points from ten matches, which increased pressure on its coach, Massimiliano Allegri. Bologna advanced to ninth place thanks to its four victories in the last five matches, while Fiorentina came tenth after its victory over Sassuolo.
The division was completed with the ranking reaching from eleventh to twentieth place. Cagliari finished in eleventh place after four consecutive defeats, followed by Atalanta in twelfth place amid declining results and pressure on coach Maurizio Sarri, then Torino in thirteenth place, and Genoa in fourteenth place after achieving four victories in five matches following the international break. Sassuolo came in fifteenth place after losing four of its last five matches, Monza in sixteenth place, and Udinese in seventeenth place, which witnessed the dismissal of coach Kosta Runajic and the appointment of Paolo Zanetti in his place, followed by Lecce in eighteenth place, then Parma in nineteenth place after achieving its first victory under its new coach, Alberto Gilardino, and finally Venezia in twentieth place, searching for stability after a faltering start.
The recent period witnessed widespread changes in the technical staff of a number of clubs, represented by Fiorentina dismissing its coach Fabio Grosso after only three matches, with Paolo Vanoli returning to take over, and Bologna replacing Domenico Tedesco with Raffaele Paladino after four matches. Parma also parted ways with Carlos Cuesta to appoint Alberto Gilardino, and Venezia dismissed Giovanni Stroppa following six consecutive defeats, in addition to Udinese ending Runajic’s duties and assigning technical leadership to Paolo Zanetti.
