“I am happy to have scored and, above all, to have done so in a victory. But my main objective is not to score, but to contribute to the success of the team,” Anguissa said. “The coach asks me to score more, maybe getting to eight goals this season, but for me the important thing is to win as a group.”
With an eye on the next league match against Genoa, Anguissa underlined the importance of preparation. “I can't predict how the match will go, but I know that we have to focus on our plays and the tactical set-up we have prepared with Tale. This can make the difference. Napoli must be a team that wins against anyone, and on Saturday we will take the field to get the three points.”

I only focus on our games and the videos prepared by the coach. In the end we’ll do the math, but I think Napoli today is a team that counts and can win.”

The midfielder then praised some of his teammates, especially Lobotka: “As a person I love him, he is calm and on the pitch he shows great personality. Playing with him is easy, we understand each other with our eyes closed.” Finally, Anguissa spoke about two young talents who could do well for Napoli: “Gilmour and McTominay are strong and have great qualities. Even from a human point of view they are great people, and for me this is fundamental. In our dressing room there is a climate of collaboration, we all help each other, even those who play less.”
