Raffaele Auriemma spoke on Radio CRC during the broadcast “Si Gonfia la Rete” Maurizio Pistocchi, Journalist. "At home Napoli we are living in a difficult situation, personally I think it is wrong to excessively contest a coach after only 4 days".

"But I think the coach's approach to the game and mentality is very important. I'm perplexed about this because I've seen a lot of uncertainty, even from an offensive standpoint.

I think we need to give time to Garcia, but not too much. Napoli has a squad worthy of the title and is the best in the league together with Inter's.

It seems to me that Garcia's ideas have been quite confused up until now and that this team is losing its identity. The team has half a champion, then some players who are ideal for Sarri and Spalletti's game."

"The goal Napoli conceded is a carbon copy of the first goal they conceded against Genoa.
I had already said in the summer that having followed the work of Garcia at Roma and Marseille, I wasn't enthusiastic, I would have made another type of choice.

The attitude was not that of a team that wants to control the ball, but of a team that alternates a very low defensive line with a more offensive attitude.

What amazes me about Napoli is that they are losing their concepts game after game.

We can't be satisfied with the result that came after a performance that in the first half was to be evaluated positively, while in the second half I didn't like some situations at all, such as the 5-man defense.

"I'm never in favor of sacking a coach after just a few games. You have to look at matches beyond the result and try to understand where Napoli is going and where this style of football can take them.

If Napoli doesn't change their footballing line and mentality, they won't go to the Champions League. And I repeat, they have the strongest squad in the league with Inter.
When you choose a coach, you need to know everything.

The curriculum, the history, the ideas and the knowledge. It is not that someone who was exonerated in Saudi Arabia is a mathematician that he does well, in fact it is more likely that he will have problems.

I had the feeling that this summer, De Laurentiis, on the wave of extraordinary success, thought he could be president, sporting director and coach. I think he overestimated himself slightly."
