Viviano gave an insight into the current state and future outlook of several key Serie A teams in an interview with CRC Radio, and here is an overview of his views:
About Juventus
Viviano was not surprised by Juventus' start to the season, recognizing the impact of the coaching staff and transfer operations on the team's performance. He singled out Locatelli for his excellent performances in the first two games and predicted that he will be given more chances to play. At the same time, he also mentioned the possible trend of Kupmenas moving forward and the rotation strategy within the team, including the alternative of Nicolas Gonzalez as a striker in Vlahovic's absence. Viviano, however, had reservations about Milik's future role.
About Napoli
Viviano anticipated Napoli's excellent performance against Bologna and believes that coach Conte's tactical set-up was key. He also expressed his dismay at United's decision to drop McTominay, but believes that the addition of the all-running playmaker will greatly complement Napoli's squad, especially by enhancing the team's dynamism and coverage in midfield.
About Florence
Viviano recognizes Fiorentina's potential, especially with Junior Keane's goal in the cup. He believes that Fiorentina's problem is not so much in the center forward position, but rather the lack of efficient finishers to complement the passing of Ballack and Kwame. He draws an analogy between Keane Jr. and Immobile, noting that both need to be in certain conditions to be at their best. Viviano also pointed out how Fiorentina could still improve in understanding the coach's intentions.
About Rome
Viviano spoke positively about Roma's performance in the Cagliari game, saying that although they failed to achieve the expected results at the beginning of the season, the team is well constructed as a whole. He specifically mentioned Roma's shortcomings at the wing-back position as one of the key factors that will affect the course of their season.
About AC Milan and Inter Milan
Viviano was disappointed with AC Milan's start to the season, but felt it was too early to draw any conclusions, suggesting that the team still has room for adjustment and improvement. In contrast, he spoke highly of Inter Milan's start, suggesting they have a more solid foundation and a higher starting point for the new season.
