Hello and welcome to Serie A Player of the month Predictions for October for Serie A. League is shaping up nicely, we have Napoli, that continues their great form under Conte with every win this month, Inter with great form, but dropping points vs Juve, Atalanta performing great, Fiorentina playing their best football in years and Lazio slowly rising to the top 4 level.
Hard to choose one player from Napoli, as their won every game this month, but no one performed in every game. I think Kvara will get nominated once again as he scored 2 winning goals vs Empoli and vs Milan, but that’s it. Gio Di Lorenzo was crucial for them too. 3 Clean Sheets this month, 1 goal in 1-0 win over Lecce too. Di Lorenzo would be better option for everyone, but he just got promo card too. Di Lorenzo would be 86 rated card with some nice stats and wouldn’t worth quiet a lot. I think around 60k at max.
Speaking about Inter is also hard. Again, loads of good results, hard opponents: Torino-Roma-Juve-Empoli, only 1 draw and a lot of good performers. Lautaro scored 2 goals this month and got 1 assist. Winning goal vs Roma, 1G and 1A vs Empoli. Marcus Thuram would be an option too: 1 assist vs Juventus and 3 goals vs Torino. Sadly all Goals came in 1 game, so it’s hard to nominate him. Overall, I’d go with Lautaro. He already has an IF and his potential POTM would be cool as hell. 91 rated card with good stats, good playstyle, decent role too. I’d say around 200k for his POTM.
Easiest choice for this month and overall favorite for POTM: Mateo Retegui from Atalanta. 6 goals and 3 assists in 4 games. Unreal performance and easiest POTM winner, I think. 1 goal and 1 assist in 2-0 win over Venezia, 2 goals in 6-1 win over Verona, 1 assist in 2-0 win over Monza and 3 goals and 1 assist in 5-1 win over Genoa. What else can you say. Good POTM, good card, cheap price. 86\87 rated card with decent upgrades would go hard. I’d say around 70k for his card, if it’s good one and has PS+.
Serie A is fun. Team can score 14 goals in 4 games and you won’t find a POTM candidate. Fiorentina is that case. In one game Kean performed, in another Adli, in 3rd one Cataldi performed. I can go with Lucas Beltran, who scored 1 goal in 6-0 win over Lecce, got 1 goal and 1 assist in 5-1 win over Fiorentina and was good in 1-0 win over Genoa. I’d prefer David De Gea, as he was mega good for them this month, was a hero in a win over Milan, kept CS vs Genoa and Lecce and was good vs Roma too. But he’s not in the game, so yeah, for now Beltran. If they can add DDG – then him. Both would be cheap POTMs and wouldn’t be as good.
Last candidate for me is Nuno Taveres. Yeah, that LB from Arsenal. Yeah, who’s the leader for assists in top 5 leagues and who’s performing amazingly for Lazio. 1 assist in 2-1 win over Empoli, 2 assists in 3-0 win over Genoa and 1 assist in 5-1 win over Como. Amazing month for him, even tho his bozo gene is there with red card against Como. But still should be recognized and nominated. Would be fun 83 rated card (hopefully they’d boost him more) and cheap too.
But yeah, Retegui should win it. 9 G|A in 4 games, easiest choices, probably easiest in top 5 leagues overall.
