What type of team is Napoli with the arrival of Calzona?
“We meet the Italian champions, it’s a great satisfaction to do so. At the moment we are in a position to want to recover that point that we lost, regardless of the opponent we have to give our all. The difference is the desire to fight. difference between last year’s Napoli and this year’s is difficult, because it was a perfect machine, with Calzona they are showing the typical movements of that Napoli. We tried to study them thoroughly.”
Napoli have many players available, not only Osimhen and Kvara, but also Politano.
“Politano is a well-known player, I would add Simeone, Raspadori. They have a lot of quality, they have many strong players available even during the match. Napoli have the ability to manage the game, they are strong in re-aggression, they know how to take risks, they are skilled in attacks lateral and in depth. We should know how to read the moments of the match, we must also be good at their individuality. The important thing is to be convinced that with the help of the department we can be competitive want to play this match”
How was the emotional part this week?
“It’s certainly not pleasant when you don’t take away any points. Especially for the players who work hard every week. What interests us is our identity but also taking points. The part of annoyance and inconvenience in a match in which we deserved a draw , we don’t have to fight with the expectation of winning. We have to think about picking up points against everyone, the difficulty coefficient increases, but it depends on us and our desire to go on the pitch and we have to be good at reading it, even more so from here to the end, in these remaining six days. Now it’s time to look ahead and believe that we can do it.”
Tomorrow, as a percentage, how much mental and preparation will be needed?
“It cannot be separated, the players play roles and I can’t wait for tomorrow. I live for the matches, I like the training but then I can’t wait to play the matches. I want to convey to my players the idea of the challenge, you only get the episode on your side if you faithfully believe in what you do. We have to give a great performance.”
How are the players physically?
“I realize that you are interested in novelty, but I am interested in globality. Physically the kids are at the highest level, just look at the data. We work systematically. I am sure that objectively they are working a lot and show important data”
