Scudetto is a newsletter and podcast about Serie A and Italian football, run by and for people who care too much about narratives, results, tactics, history and the chaos that makes football on the peninsula so interesting.

We started as a podcast: three friends, a few โ€œcivilisedโ€ beers, and too many late nights watching matches. Now weโ€™re back as a newsletter first, with occasional audio when the story demands it.

If you like how that sounds subscribe below.

The Scudetto crew is here weekly to bring you up to speed on Italian football/soccer. Separated by borders and seas, three friends catch up over a civilised beer and discuss all things Serie A.


Boring Calcio Has Left the Chat Scudetto

Hello Serie A fan, after a brief Scudetto sabbatical, we return to find that Serie A has apparently misplaced its handbrake.Napoli finally stop the bleeding against Bologna, although Allegriโ€™s stress levels remain dangerously high. Juventus turn Sassuolo away into a late-game public-safety announcement. Atalanta dominate, concede, and continue the awkward business of teaching a Gasperini-built squad some Sarri grammar. Milan donate a half to Lazio, then send Diego Moreira on to retrieve it.By the lake, Como put four past Leipzig. Inter make Real Madrid work. Roma take a useful point from Istanbul. And Arsenal remind Napoli that European redemption arcs require an attack.Plus: Good Week / Bad Week, honourable and dishonourable mentions, Italian footballโ€™s ongoing war on boring calcio, and enough managers, returns and resignations to make the recycling bin feel like a tactical innovation. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
