Carratelli: "De Laurentiis announced the dismantling of Napoli, the reaction of the players"

Then he adds: "What is noticeable in Naples is precisely the loss of enthusiasm, not only that of the automatisms of play for the frenetic turn-over. Naples no longer has the emotional charge of the past few years. Ancelotti's first year has passed between continuous experiments. The second is the same after the president has reinforced the "squad" by investing more than one hundred million in new purchases. The impression is that there is some confusion in the locker room. And missing, among the players, a true leader who knows how to hold the team in hand. The high-risk Salzburg match must dispel doubts, melancholies and suppositions, sending the "frottola" of newspapers and TV to the sender. Napoli will take a series of six matches between the championship and the Champions League in thirteen days before the next stop in mid-November ".
