De Laurentiis: 'Naples in withdrawal. Troubled by Calciopoli, foreign arbitrators are needed | First page

Aurelio De Laurentiis, president of Naples, talk to Radio Kiss Kiss, announcing the withdrawal for the Neapolitan club: "The team will be in retreat until Sunday. Ancelotti is a great coach, the problem must be found in the work of the group. Players must find motivation not only against Liverpool. When I see two penalties assigned for hand fouls in the area against Roma, I am amazed, meaning there is no concentration ". ON CALCIUMPOLIS "Unclear regulation? I don't want to see in the house of others, I think of us. Our people must be respected. Opinionists say the opposite of everything. I don't want to find alibis. I don't want to say that our Var wanted to rage." The arbitration problem is complex and serious and does not want to be dealt with, the referees are managed by the League, they should be foreigners, not older than 33 years, with up to 3 fines when they make a mistake. "We have the memory of Calciopoli, it hasn't passed so much and I was very upset, it marked me. Today it's difficult to trust a system like that. How can I put my hand on the fire on everyone? Because there are no yellow cards and reds for the referees? The Var should be a help. For every time it would take a call from our coach and that of the opponent. We say two calls for each coach. The players are boys, it is normal to call them. or badly seeing certain wrongs that can get angry. The referee must be impartiality personified. The Var should help the referee and, indirectly, the teams ".

ON THE WITHDRAWAL – "The team, in some situations, showed a great quality. The coach cannot put the team in withdrawal, it's up to us. They go to retreat because they need to know each other better. Should this swing of results continue, then the withdrawal could become punitive. However, I hope this does not happen. Everyone must be faithful to the shirt they wear and I'm sure they are all very serious. 18 points in the league? I'm not worried, the ranking is short. Just win 4, 5 games in a row to recover. Roma-Napoli? Absurd to take two penalties that way. Missing the right concentration and I can't accept that. Too bad to have lost several players due to injury, I think of Malcuit. But this happens a bit to everyone ".

Then came the reply from Ancelotti himself: "I do not agree with the withdrawal, but I do the coach". (read HERE)
