After 6 rounds of Serie A 2025/26, it's already time to take stock: here are the names that are making thousands of fantasy managers despair.

🐺 Roma's forwards: a nightmare

Roma fans and fantasy managers dreamed of fireworks but instead found themselves with a team that scores but not with the forwards. Goals in dribs and drabs and a lot of frustration.

Whether you picked Dovbyk or Ferguson, the result doesn't change: just one goal and two assists in two. And in Fanta, without bonuses, you don't get far.

❌ Jonathan David, lost bomber

Paid a lot of money by many, he was supposed to be a guarantee of goals and +3 in a row. Instead, David hasn't made an impact yet: few conclusions, many low votes, and just one goal (and one assist).

For now, he's more of a problem than a resource, and those who bet heavily on him are kicking themselves.

👻 Gudmundsson 'phantom'

His second season at Fiorentina was supposed to be a rebirth, but so far the Icelander is a total disappointment for fantasy managers.

Gudmundsson seems like an unrecognizable player: little brilliance, no decisive spark, and a physical condition still far from the top.

💤 Baturina & Morata: flop pair

He seemed like the midfielder of dreams, but instead turned out to be a nightmare. Baturina has not lived up to expectations so far, given the competition in the three-quarters and midfield in Como.

Morata, on the other hand, continues to disappoint with his usual inconsistency: high expectations, few goals.

Together, they are the perfect definition of "great fantasy football illusion", with Como continuing to rely on the magic of Nico Paz.

🪫 Colombo, from promise to problem

Many fantasy managers had bet on him, hoping for a quality leap after the transfer to Genoa.

However, Colombo has not managed to make space or make an impact in the goal area.

The talent is there, but the numbers (for now) are not. And those who took him as a "joker" find themselves with a forward who can't make an impact and give bonuses.

🩹 Zaniolo, eternal wait

His arrival in Udine was greeted with hype and curiosity. Instead, Zaniolo is not satisfying: a few sparks and little else

Just one goal, but in the Coppa Italia. Then the cosmic void in Serie A: fantasy managers demand concreteness, but he continues to live off "potential". And at this point, patience is running out.
