Corrado ferlaino, Chairman of the Napoli of the two Scudetti of the 1987 and 1990, spoke to Adnkronos about the team Luciano Spalletti that yesterday evening in Champions League he beat theAjax 6-1 ad Amsterdam.
“This Napoli is playing exceptional football – says Ferlaino -. It started with some skepticism after the departure of 4 important players like Koulibaly, Insigne, Mertens and Fabian Ruiz but the club was good at replacing them in the best way by taking equally good and younger players. The Azzurri are leading both in Serie A and in the Champions League group and have several cards to play in both competitions”.
“I wouldn't make comparisons with my Napoli – adds Ferlaino -. Football has changed a lot in more than 30 years and it is still too early to understand if this group can win something but the great thing is that it is a lot of fun to watch these guys play and being young they have a lot of room for improvement".
“Napoli in 1987 was a team of run away from home more Maradona? To win the championship... I respect everyone's opinion but I don't agree at all. There were very strong players in that group besides Diego, think about Giordano e Carnival offensively, Bathrooms e From Naples and midfield, Ferrara in defense and more”he concluded Ferlaino regarding the comments made this week by Antonio Cassano.
