“With four teams in a group of six games, each game is worth more than just three points. We play in front of our fans, in a full stadium, aware that in the Champions League there are no small teams and we know that, even though Union are not in a good moment in terms of results, we need the best Napoli to win and improve our ranking even more”. Clear ideas for Rudi Garcia on the eve of the match awaits his boys in the fourth day of group C of Champions League.
The French coach, therefore, also focuses on the home field advantage even if in the last few matches he has achieved greater satisfaction away from home rather than at home. “It's true, but we started well against Sassuolo – he says to the microphones of Sky Sport -. We have to make Maradona an important factor again and with the help of our fans we will succeed."
In or out, the Napoli he is finding the right rhythm also in the championship. Something has changed and Garcia he identified what. “The boys have understood that you have to be consistent and always in the game with your head, legs and heart: from the starting whistle to the final whistle.
I have always said that a winning streak was needed, we must continue like this knowing that we can be good in the quality of the game and that in every match we must demonstrate who we are", the former Roma coach cuts short and then focuses on James Raspadori, protagonist of goals and excellent performances in the last matches, the best way to not make us regret osimhen.
“It's a great moment for Giacomo, he's a striker who ties the game together. I'm happy with the current squad, but we can't wait for Victor to return to us, but I'm focusing on who can play and I know I'm lucky enough to have two strikers like Raspadori and Simeone.
Raspa is doing well, he has scored three goals in three games, he is a player who immediately, since my arrival, made me understand how important he can be for the team, whether he plays from the start or during the match – explains Garcia -. I can't say when Osimhen will return, it's up to the doctors and trainers to make the work plans, but I think he could be ready after the break, therefore available for the match against Atalanta".
