Napoli Serie A 2025/26 Season Thread: Amma faticà, ma cchiù assaje

To be fair conte took over a team of 7 recent Scudetto winners who where in the starting 11 when won, and Mctominay, Lukaku and Buongiorno. What a terrible team, definitely 10th place material.

 

Welcome to last season. I don't see the problem as new, but I also acknowledge there is this Conte thing that magically nets us point, which is why I ignore it until it is visible in results. 5 wins of 6, no one can take that away from him.
The loss to City wasn't his fault. The loss to Milan was just unlucky because a new young CB started the game as feared but nothing surprising There - also as a sidenote Conte couldn't start Beukema in that game because fear of Injury meant we wouldnt have a CB against sporting because Marianucci isn't registered in the CL squad.

 

Conte likes to subvert expectations to the media.

 

Milan was robbed.

 

Pulisic and leao 2 dopes

 

He's a turd

 

Lobotka and Politano both out for month.

 

Time for Neres and Gilmor to step up

 

Some drama going around about Oshiman from back when we got him..

 

Torino vs Napoli
Lucca, neres and gilmour in the starting 11

 

Let’s get it done !

 

I think that the biggest problems with playing players like Lucca is that they naturally feel like they need to show their worth, which often leads to their keeping the ball for too long instead of passing it, as if they themselves were waiting for that magic that is not there, only to then lose the ball easily.

Luca has already done it once, let us hope he can avoid it as much as possible.

 

Also he never really played for a top team in a big league, so he needs time to learn the basics.

 

Once again, a very bad start to the game. We have shown only impotence, and allowed them show brilliance far too easily. At least we are lucky.

 

That goes without saying. Well, we can only hope we will improve significantly in this game, or for the Kevin effect again. Not a good free kick, but the goalkeeper almost fcked it up as if Kevin had mesmerized him. Well, at least Neres shows signs of danger.

 

Thats one of those goals where it literally is no ones fault. Other than simeone of course

 

Typical

 

Wtf happened again. I just go to take a piss, come back, and again down by a goal.

 

And ofc, the camera showing Conte with that look on his face that already says 'we were doing well, nobody here actually has any experience with anything, please remember we are building a highway here and we have bad quality weed', or something like that.

Just kidding, let's turn this around.

 

Has anyone listened to the Italian football podcast? They go on and on about how Lucca has the entire package, and can do everything Højlund can but better. I dont see it.
Of course one of them also said di Baggio was better than Messi

 

Gilmour has looked like the super talent he used to be when he came through Chelsea's academy. Also having jorginho and now Lobo as your mentor can't hurt.

Btw what was that freekick by Neres? Why even ask to take it if you can hit it that badly?

 

He is obviously not going to show his best here. He is too eager to prove himself, you can feel it in everything he does.

That is not the issue here, though. Whether that goal was somebody's fault or not, we still keep starting every game conceding first, and mostly the best we can do until then is falling, stumbling, and crying...
