No screaming, because Carlo Ancelotti is not a type and has never been his method. But the day after Napoli-Genoa the tone of voice felt by the blue players in the blue locker room was different and pushes the group towards a turning point. The numbers speak for themselves: in the last 5 seasonal races in Naples they have suffered 9 goals. Too many. And often dictated by errors and distractions that at these levels are not tolerable.
WRONG IS HUMAN ... - But persevering becomes diabolical. And what most annoyed Ancelotti was to review the same type of defensive errors, already analyzed after the bad defeat ("deserved" according to the same coach) of Empoli. As if to say that against Genoa Carletto was surprised not to see certain attitudes change. And so in these days he is devoting a lot of time to clarifying some basic concepts, with audiovisual help, and then - through personal interviews - to stimulate his parents who have to reawaken from a torpor only partly explained by a championship that one does not have. nothing more to ask.
IN VERONA WITHOUT PASSING HOME - And to give a sign, after London Friday the team will move directly to Verona to prepare for Sunday's match with Chievo. But above all it will be a way to keep the group united and concentrated after the trip to London and before the return scheduled for Thursday 18 at the San Paolo. Of course, even logistically, returning Friday from London to leave Saturday for Verona would have been uncomfortable, so at home in Naples we try to have the utmost attention to detail to pursue the Europa League in a dream.
CALL UP - After the morning training session, Ancelotti released convocations for London and the subsequent trip to Verona. No particular news: Verdi recovers and the group also has Primavera Gaetano. Here are the 22: Meret, Ospina, Karnezis, Chiriches, Malcuit, Koulibaly, Ghoulam, Luperto, Maksimovic, Mario Rui, Hysaj, Allan, Verdi, Zielinski, Fabian Ruiz, Gaetano, Callejon, Ounas, Mertens, Insigne, Milik, Younes.
