“Did Politano's expulsion change the match? We were in our best moment, the only team that could win was Napoli.
I don't talk about the referees, I talk about football. We did more and we thought we could take the lead."
Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri said this after the 9-2 defeat, with 0 men, at Roma. For now, no changes to the playing system are planned: "I liked how the team played last year," the coach explained to Dazn.
We'll see about the players later, but even today here in Rome we had 68 percent possession. We have one flaw: we don't convert what we create.
If in the future I see something that doesn't work, I will think about strengthening the defense. The team plays similarly to last year, with some players who are less fit."
The goal is to rediscover the brilliance of some players, but the commitments do not help: "If you go to a big team at a certain time, playing every three days, you cannot coach. Now it is not easy to make what were called recalls", he concluded.
