Antonio Conte’s Napoli won again at Maradona thanks to the Azzurri’s outstanding performance and thanks to the goals scored by Neres and Lang in the first half. The Italian coach smiled again after a difficult period, and commented on the match on Sky: «Anguissa’s last tile made me reflect, there are only a few of us left in the midfield. Elmas is an underdog, he did well.”
“Vergara is a boy with good prospects, but more offensive. We are satisfied with this win, the first half went very quickly. In the second minute we tried to press, but Atalanta’s attack could not be avoided. We could have managed some of the balls better. I have seen the game against Marseillethey played a great game on a difficult field”, said the coach.

“I have an intense and very strong relationship with footballerwe always tell each other the truth.
I’m very transparent, I don’t have a mask. Many people don’t like this, everyone has their own considerations, it’s part of the game. The media has the right to speak, we must continue to work. We need to restore energy,” he stressed.
Words for Dazn
“You haven’t seen me for two weeks, but you’ve been talking about me for two weeks. I don’t make you feel my absence. Movement towards Hojlund? There was positive energy in the stadium tonight. I involved him because I think it’s been a long time since we felt this energy. The kids are nice, but the environment is hot and boring. It’s not easy against a very strong team, which we lost 3-0 here last year. We defended and in the second half the goal gave us a bit of anxiety and we could have handled it better. A little suffering is also beneficial and we must not forget it”, said the coach.
“This team is with me, is with me and will always be with me. And I will always be with them. They’re dealing with real, honest people, I can’t wear a mask. I exposed myself and many don’t have the courage to do so. Nothing and no one can ruin our relationship, the kids know that. After Bologna I took over responsibility», Conte emphasized.
“Lukaku? He trains separatelyneed to be monitored and don’t forget that he has a serious injury. When he’s with the group, it’s very important. Romelu and Frank are important players to have in the dressing room. Romelu stole my job? I love Lukaku too much to advise him to become a managerI usually recommend it to those who are a little more unpleasant for me”, Conte then said jokingly.
Press conference
“Does this stop provide advice? I like to let the facts speak, Talking a lot doesn’t make me crazy. I often find myself in these conversations. But I accept it because I do this work and I know I am subject to a lot of judgment and judgment. What’s most important to me is the reality of the facts. Tonight we won a tough game. Today I feel positive energy involving everyone. “In the second half we should have controlled the ball better,” said Conte.
“The players are very good, I like them all. The energy I saw this evening last year led us to do something extraordinary. Anguissa? His stop was a major blow. Gilmour too. We don’t know when he will return. Injuries are the problem that worries us the most. Today we changed the game system and the players performed well.”

«Hojlund And Rahmani they leave because I see they are tired, I would rather change because everyone still needs to be involved. It’s been five months and we need everyone. I’m glad of that beukema he’s playing again, like Lang. Of course we can improve and we should all do so. I’m happy for Mazzocchi, who hasn’t played yet. Vergara and Ambrosini should also feel involved. We have experienced emergency moments since the beginning of the year and this is often forgotten. We do our best. We worked and gave everything we had for Napoli, but don’t forget the rest. I didn’t have a mask, then someone said I was crying. I have a very strong relationship with the players, we are very close and they know that they have a real person in front of them”, emphasized Conte.
“I don’t have to be at peace with myself. When I speak, I always take responsibility. We know that we always depend on results. However, it was those two weeks that we reflected and I knew I had a serious and clean group. Nothing can ruin the relationship with my son. Let’s move forward knowing that there is still a long way to go.” concluded Conte.
