Michele Criscitiello, CEO of the Italian media outlet Sportitalia, analyzed the results of this Serie A round.

"The draw with Como somewhat proves that for Internazionale, Serie A this season will be a warm-up for the Champions League. For Inter, the Champions League is the real goal this season. It's very difficult to find a team that can beat Internazionale. Although there are some good teams, it's hard for them to put pressure on the reigning champions," Criscitiello said.

"Internazionale has a complete structure and only needs to consolidate the path they started last season. The team knows that this season, they must go all the way not only in Italy but also in Europe. The real problem with Serie A is that we are likely to see a familiar ending by late winter. Internazionale has consistently performed better than other teams for a long time, thanks to strong club structure. The impact of the coaching change last season has been digested, while rivals continue to make mistakes. Milan and Juventus are both behind, Napoli must start from scratch after Conte's departure, and Roma and Como, for various reasons, cannot be considered title contenders."

"We will find joy in the Champions League and invest in it. Obviously, our league needs at least two more teams that can reach Internazionale's level. Milan, Juventus, Roma, and Napoli all still have a gap to bridge. This draw with Como, the first 0-0 in Serie A this season, shows that two top coaches can bring the score to 99, but not necessarily to 100."
