How good would Chelsea do if they played a season in Serie A?

I don't know... Chelsea is a great team, but italian rythm is so hard even for teams like Juventus, AC Milan, Internazionale or AS Roma. One proof of this is the last 6 tied games in a row for Juventus and i think this is a result of the european competitions and also the Coppa Italia although Italian teams has been playing so well that in UEFA Champios League there is at least one team in the battle for the final. 3 Italian teams (Juventus, AC Milan and Internazionale) were in te querter-finals ans that is so hard to do, just Udienese were out. \n\nI think it's interesting to think about Chelsea playing in Serie A, different rythms and different tactics, but i don't think Chelsea could survive, maybe in the 5th place of the ranking, but... we'll never know.

In Serie A there is a lot of good strikers:\nAdriano, Trézéguet, Shevchenko (sold to Chelsea), Gilardino, Inzaghi, Zalatan Ibrahimovic, David Suazo, C. Lucarelli And Tavano.\n\nBut the best one was Luca Toni\nTo  score 31 goals in 38 Matches isn't an easy job, Especially while playing in the most defensive league in the world.\n\nI'm only talking about the last season.

Juventus.Their players are experienced and will not choke now after leading the charge this whole season.

i think they stand a great chance.\nthey've been playing classy football for the first part of the season (the arsenal game excluded), also they've got +21 goal difference after 11 games (already a full 10 more than chelsea) which is amazing.\nunited have always been strongest in the second half of the season, and if this continues then it will be very difficult for chelsea to stop them.

Chelsea. The only reason they are doing alright in the league is because some rich Russian guy bought them and has spent loads of money on getting players. Even if they are doing well, they still suck.

I think Chelsea will ditch some of their stallwarts who have been performing bad and replace them by some of their on loan stars. Michael Ballack will join them in midfield, and will help them win their 3rd consecutive premiership title.

If you mean Serie A then yes they will,or they have.Milan need to score alot of goals in their last game while Juve have to lose their last game.This will not happen.Even i know that,and i'm English.

Sorry, but so far only one team have won the English premiership in back-to-back seasons, and that's Manchester United, on three separate occasions. Although that's about to change as Chelsea will of course retain the title this season. So all you idiots that have replied with Liverpool, Arsenal etc, go hang your heads in shame. And as for the question setter, do you really know the English Premiership?

They have good funds therefore can buy the good players that can have a good chemistry with other team players, their coach Jose Murinho is a very good coach that can make the money they have very useful, using it in very successful transfer deals. They have very good players that have a good chemistry together and are perfect for the Priemer league. The money they have isnt everything, Real Madrid had huge funds but were never as good as Chelsea right now because they only bought expensive players, while Chelsea buy average priced players but buy them with higher prices than they are really labeled by their previous clubs, but these players end up showing the huge potential they have because Jose Murinho gives them the ideal positions, tactics and game style causing them to play really well as a team rather than individually. He also has a very solid defense and a fast midfield therefore can make a very good use of the counter attacks, and as you can notice a large portion of Chelsea's goals come through counter attacks, also the age range for Chelsea's players is the ideal age, that is 23-27

On paper yes they have great players in every position AND pretty good back-up players.\nBut I don't think they can compare Chelsea's history with the other big English teams.\n\nSince Roman Abramovich bought Chelsea he cleared their debts and bought lots of players.\n\nIn my opinion, He is trying to make a team of galacticos same way Real Madrid did, But in his case he is balancing the team not focusing on Attacker and Mids the way Real did.\n\nBut this is hurting Chelsea, Now a lot of their supporters are glory hunters, they know nothing about pride, Honor or loving the team.\nAll they care about is "Player X and player Z plays for us" or "We won the EPL" etc....\n\nMr. Abramovich once said "..........., it's really about having fun and that means success and trophies."\nNow what will happen if they don't win any trophies?\nWhat will happen when he gets bored of all this Football and decides he will leave Chelsea.\nNo more 'Sugar Daddy' ?!\n\nWill they go in debt again?!! (hope not) but with their team's high salaries I doubt they won't\nWill their so called supporters AKA "glory hunters" support them?!\nI would really feel sorry for the REAL Chelsea supporters.\n\nFinally, I may be completely wrong, But this is the way i see it.

He is a very good player in midfield but I think they can replace him. Their problem now is that their defense isn't looking very confident, their midfield has been hit by many injury problems and player suspensions, and their forwards are sometimes missing easy chances. I think they should make a couple of big transfers in the summer in order to return as good as they were and be able to compete with Chelsea's astonishing form

Hope it is Liverpool. Chelsea only buys the good players and win.

Well is very hard to tell..will have to see how they perform at the early stages of the league. It will be very hard for them but in the end anything can happen in football. Just look at the likes of west ham and wigan. Both team manage to be in the finals of the league and FA cup during their 1st season in the premiership...

Yes, they are in good shape.\n\nHere are the resons:\n\n1. They are in top of Serie A table right now.\n\n2. They have not lost a league match till now.(They are the only side not to loose a Serie A match)\n\n3. They are the best attcking sides away from home (with 9 goals)\n\n4. They have won their derby Match against AC Milan (4-3)\n\n5. Their strikers Dejan Stankovic, Hernan Crespo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic are in very good form.\n\nIf they keep up this form they will be Italian Champions again. They are facing tough fight from Palermo and Roma.\n\nBut I am not sure, if they the best in Europe. Their Champion sleague form is not that good.

Ye stotally agree they can win the premiership for next 5 years, people can say that KManchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal will get stronger, but so will Chelsea. 5/1, that's like taking candy of a baby!
