On the eve of the match between Napoli and Roma, Antonio Conte took stock of the conditions of his players and answered several questions, including on the return of some injured players. The Italian coach spoke about the team's latest performances and expectations for the next match: "In the last five games, we've won three times, drawn with Inter, and lost to Atalanta. Gilmour had a good performance; he didn't do as badly as some have written. As for Lobotka, he's back from international duty, and now we have to evaluate his condition."
On the injury front, Conte confirmed that both Romelu Lukaku and Scott McTominay have trained regularly and are not experiencing any physical problems. Olivera worked yesterday and today. He'll be back tomorrow, too, but he still has 48 hours to get over some of the fatigue. added the technician.
There were also questions about other statements, such as that of Giuseppe Marotta, who recently claimed he knew what Conte meant when he spoke on certain occasions. The coach commented: "I thank the director MarottaToday he's the president of Inter, but he's not my president. I'm pleased that he's understood that I'm an intelligent person, that I communicate well. However, my goals are not his. We are adversaries and rivals."
Looking ahead to Sunday's match against Roma, Conte said: "Roma are an enigma; it's hard to predict how they'll face us. But we have to focus on ourselves. The lads have worked well and are eager to continue on this path." The match, scheduled for Sunday afternoon at the Maradona, promises to be intense and decisive for both teams.
