Raffaele Auriemma spoke on Radio CRC during the broadcast “Si Gonfia la Rete” German Denis, former footballer of Napoli di Walter Mazzarri, today returned to the blue bench ten years after the last time: "Right now Mazzarri is the right person for the Napoli, he is capable and competent. Knowing the area he can give a lot, without a doubt”.
“His relationship with us players? He is a coach you could talk to, he had a paternal relationship with the players.
He has a lot of experience and is able to understand when it is time to have a chat with a player, he is able to bring out the best in everyone. After what Spalletti did, it would have been very difficult to repeat the same year.
Garcia found himself in a moment in which the Napoli he was coming off a hugely successful championship and it was beautiful to see."
“They had one of the strongest defenders in Europe, Osimhen was in top form, then Kvaratskhelia. Garcia was a bit unlucky, this must be said because beyond what he could have done, the management of the group was something that didn't work.
It was difficult to repeat Spalletti's year."
“If the player can’t understand the moment it can be counterproductive. Mazzarri is good at understanding when to approach the player and when to pull his ears.
Find a team that can't work so hard during the break, but over time they'll get their act together."
“He is not afraid of difficult matches because he is aware of what he has in hand. This Napoli can compete with anyone.
The others also have to think about Napoli, for me it will gain a lot of strength with the results. The period is short, we have to do something immediately, but we have to be patient because there is another beginning”.
