Napoli: mistakes, declines and fear the 2019 blue via crucis


CONDIVIDI/SHARE

Team lackluster from an athletic and convoluted point of view
in terms of the game: the performance against Arsenal
is the photograph of the blue drop since the beginning of the year (or better, from
just after the Anfield defeat against Liverpool and the
consequent elimination from the Champions League) and in particular
way in the last month with the only exception represented
from success at the Olimpico on Rome.

Napoli has come to pieces in the most moment
important part of the year, clearly losing the double comparison
with the Gunners and seeing the dream of reaching the bottom fade away
to the Europa League, the last goal of the season after
elimination in the group stage in the Champions League and in the quarter-finals
final in the Italian Cup and with the championship race for some time
filed by Juve.

A slow and unproductive possession: Napoli has the athletic spirit
confirmed all the difficulties that have emerged for some time,
the team always proceeds at the same speed without
being able to set the change of pace necessary to put in
difficulties solid opponents and well placed in the field as
Arsenal. No flicker in offensive phase in the one against
one, except for an effective inspiration from Fabian Ruiz in
first time and another of Insigne, great anxiety about the second
balls almost always won by the Gunners, a clear difference emerged
in this sense above all to the Emirates but also to the San
Paul.

A Napoli off on the athletic profile and as competitive ardor.
It is true that Ancelotti had prepared a reasoned assault for
avoid exposing yourself to Arsenal restarts but Napoli
it was totally devoid of that intensity
necessary to put fear into the British. The effect
environment that had pushed Emery’s formation to the first leg
did not have positive effects on Napoli in the return match
at the San Paolo. Never a real blaze, dull game and
the blues are flat. The only ready, tonic, reactive and
Koulibaly was ready to challenge the blues hard
that against Arsenal was confirmed once again
the only top player of absolute level in Napoli.
