There is so much waiting for Carlo Ancelotti's first conference, above all to understand the aims of the technical project. The coach has very clear ideas. "We must compare with Juventus and Inter. Napoli is one of the few companies that has not changed the coach. It is a team that is already known. It will be a Napoli in line with what it was last year. Not everything has been done what was in our possibilities, there was the regret for the second part of the season, I am convinced that it will be a better Napoli, with less uncertainty and with a game already tested. There will be no big news from the tactical point of view. in the first year, I start with fewer uncertainties and uncertainties, I know what I have in my hands and I have fewer concerns than last year.

MARKET - "We are moving in the market, but we are not with water in the throat, the rose is already so competitive". The market argument is introduced with the James Rodriguez issue. "This team has been used to playing quality football. James has a lot of it, unfortunately he is not yet a Napoli player, maybe he never will be or will be. Only then will we talk about it. I would not be happy if another coach talked about one of my players. We are evaluating so many profiles, there are so many opportunities. The only certain thing is that I have not given ok for the transfer of any player. Then if there is someone's will to change the air, then it will be evaluated. here to August 31 there is time ". A first purchase was made, however, and is that of Kostas Manolas, after the departure of Albiol. "I thank Albiol who was important for Napoli. We took one of the best defenders on the market. I believe that with Koulibaly he will form a very strong pair, which will allow us to play a more aggressive football and have a more advanced defensive line" .

SHIELD— But will it be a Scudetto Napoli? Ancelotti does not hide: "We have to aim for something important, we were competitive last year and we must raise the bar and, therefore, try to win something". Winning, of course, also to rediscover the passion of the people. "I perceived that there is greater enthusiasm. It is clear that we must put on our own, playing great football in order to fill the San Paolo again. Last year we played many good games, but there was no continuity".

ICARDI— The Icardi question. Ancelotti does not mind too much. "He is a very good player, much appreciated by everyone, not only by me. For us it is already important that such players are matched to Napoli. There is appreciation for the player, nothing more. At the moment we have two strikers, Mertens and Milik, the latter made a great season.

Maybe it didn't have continuity, but it came from two seasons of recovery for injuries. I wouldn't focus on the profile of a penalty area striker ". On Insigne, on the other hand, he was quite determined:" He had an excellent period in the first part, last season, then he dropped, but in the National team he recovered . He is the captain of Naples and I expect a captain attitude from him ". Sarri and Conte return to Italy the last topic discussed." I see them well. I'm glad Conte is back. Notwithstanding that Juve remains the team to beat, the fact that Inter is working to improve and be competitive will be an advantage for the championship and a problem for everyone. Sarri? No one expected him to finish at Juve. Of course, they took a great coach. I understand the displeasure of the Neapolitan fans, but we are professionals. I'd rather beat Juventus in a season than in a game. The rivalry is only sporting and nothing else ".
