Luciano Spalletti, speaking to Dazn, commented on the match won against his team's Sassuolo as follows: Napoli: “We must give special praise to the whole team for this series of matches. Starting over every time by putting in a little more is not easy, because the opponents now prepare the matches against us with double the attention and availability. For this they deserve a thank you and a lot of gratitude.
However, today we conceded too much for how the match developed: we scored immediately and doubled shortly after, then maybe it can be physiological not to have the right punctuality and precision in every circumstance. But you always have to have the same quality and the same attitude, otherwise an episode can influence a result and open up comebacks by the opponents".
The coach from Certaldo then continued with praise for his team: “It is a group of true professionals, who have fun and at the same time chase a goal, to always win. They train with quality and intensity and I believe that this is the key, wanting to find a passing line that others do not see. The ball must travel fast and precise to go into space at the right time, it is the players who have the power of intuition and genius in perceiving increasingly important things”.
Then on Kvara: "He's perfect: he can do everything, he's a great guy, he chases the opponent for the whole match. Sometimes the attackers don't give importance to a won tackle or to recovering a position, which instead makes it easier to win the ball back".
Finally, a reflection on his work and the future between Liverpool and Atalanta: "I don't see what the problem is, everyone ultimately deserves what they have shown. Probably, in general, there are those who benefit from better press and perhaps it depends on this type of relationship. I don't have time to comment outside of training" he explained.
: “It will be a more difficult match, it is really complicated to be able to put in a high-level performance in Bergamo, where few come away with points”.
