They are all fine, and it shows. Despite the injured players, both short and long-term, Napoli gives health to the men who take the field. A sign that the general psycho-physical condition has improved and that the pause for the national teams has not affected. Four goals scored by Udinese before the stop at the San Paolo, the same treatment reserved for Roma at home. And the logical thread that links the two matches is the excellent performance of the attackers. Milik, Mertens and - surprisingly Younes - repeated on the scoresheet with Callejon (with Udinese) and Verdi (in Rome) alternating goals.
WAITING FOR INSIGNE - All this means that you worry less about the convalescence of Lorenzo Insigne, struggling with muscular problems that probably should return next Sunday against Genoa and still be completely recovered for the challenge with Arsenal on April 11 in London. The Milik-Mertens pair is working very well and above all it bodes well for the growth of Verdi, Younes and even Ounas, who could be a star in Empoli, on Wednesday night.
INJURY GOODBYE - Amin Younes is finally cured, especially improving muscle strength after last summer Achilles tendon rupture. The German knows how to bet and skip the man and he is proving to be an excellent scorer when he gets close to the penalty area. A similar speech for Simone Verdi who had less serious injuries, but two muscular injuries that limited his performance. "Now everything is behind us, fortunately and I hope to return the confidence that Ancelotti has always given me". Now these players will have to show continuity this week in the Empoli and Genoa matches. Also to put the technician in difficulty when the anti-Arsenal training will be ready.
