Do they have any uber-talented youngsters or is it all about teamwork and good coaching? The reason I am asking is once every few years we have teams like this who pop up. Monaco with Mbappe and Lemar are the previous example. But then big teams scavenge their talent and they drop back.

 

Are there any similar outstanding players in Atalanta? If not, hopefully, this season is not a one-off and they can sustain this.

 

They do have a great academy and scouting network. Lots of their players are spread throughout the league and in Serie B that haven't made the grade and they've sold lots in recent years (Andrea Conti, Franck Kessie to Milan, Gagliardini,Bastoni to Inter, Mancini to Roma etc, Zappacosta). Even Caldara (playing at CB) they sold Juve who has made his way back now after not settling there or at Milan (he was involved in the weird Bonucci deal).

 

The current team is mostly through good signings and very good coaching. It is becoming an older team though, particularly in the forward areas.

 

Cheers. Hopefully, their growth continues in the following seasons.

Another fun thing they do is gift a kit to every baby born in Bergamo, to try and stave off fans from supporting the big Milan clubs and Juve.

Nice :) Such a simple and effective gesture. 10 more minutes plus added time. Hope they can hang on.

Haven’t Atalanta got arguably the best academy structure it Italy? Normally sell their best players either to Juve or Inter?

Atalanta have faced 8 different keepers in this year's Champions league, they've scored against 7 of them, the only player they've not scored against is Kyle Walker.

They've not scored past Sergio Rico today so not accurate
