Everything ready in Riyadh for the Italian Super Cup. The first semi-final will face each other Napoli e Fiorentinawith the Azzurri called to give an answer on the field to confirm that they are on the right track to emerge from the moment of crisis between the end of 2023 and the beginning of 2024.”The market doesn’t distract us and I don’t carewe are focused – he explained Walter Mazzarri -. We come from a fluctuating moment and we have to play a match that gives conviction and serenity to the boys.” “I haven’t decided on the lineup yet, but I’m studying something different against Fiorentina – he added -. Cajuste and Zielinski are recovered and they should do it.”
THE MAZZARRI CONFERENCE
Does the market have an impact on your head?
“The transfer market? I only think about tomorrow’s match. I’ve always been used to this and I try to inculcate this mentality in the boys too so as not to get them distracted by the transfer market”
Turning point with Salernitana?
“The boys had lost a bit of confidence. This victory against Salernitana gave us the right morale and confidence for the following matches. Both in the Super Cup and in the championship”
Zielinski, Cajuste and Demme
“Cajuste should try in training soon and could do it. And so will Zielinski. He will evaluate him better tonight. Demme had a strain on his twin. He didn’t train yesterday and is unlikely to be available”
The 2012 final
“I don’t like talking about the past. It was a particular final. Let’s forget about it, let’s look forward. This is a different Napoli. The club has made giant steps forward. We’re coming from a fluctuating moment and we have to play a match that gives conviction and serenity to the boys so that they can return to playing with the right balance”
Simeone starter?
“I’ll see the lineup tomorrow, I have to think about it. It’s possible that Simeone plays because he’s doing well. He’s a candidate”
Different form?
“What I thought, I keep to myself. We have only done two training sessions and I need time to evaluate. Weeks ago we tried something different to change during the match. However, I think we will play like in the last few matches in terms of form ”
Mistakes not to be repeated with the Viola
“It was a bad defeat in the championship against Fiorentina, but Garcia was in charge and I don’t like commenting on the actions of a colleague. Having said that, I tried to understand what could be done better so as not to repeat the same performance. I saw a great Fiorentina, who played a great match. And Napoli suffered. This is why I will try to do something different tomorrow”
The new format
“It’s not for me to comment on it. They thought about holding these two races. The Federation should be asked why”
Lots of players in Arabia
“There is a crisis in European football which has less economic potential. And the most important players can be attracted by Saudi Arabia’s money. With better players, the Arab championship will improve. It is clear, however, that it will also take away good footballers all over the world. ‘Europe and beyond’
THE WORDS OF SIMEON
Not favorites in the Super Cup
“We are here because we are the Italian Champions and we will prove it. We will give our all in this important competition to be able to find the right energy”
Supercup also important for morale
“What I did with Fiorentina has nothing to do with what I did with Napoli last year. Fiorentina is a good team and we will have to try to limit their ball possession. At this moment we need humility and a spirit of team. You don’t have to think individually”
Fiorentina obstacle
“I continue to keep a diary with all the moments I go through. It helps me a lot to find confidence and grow. It will be difficult against Fiorentina. I try to analyze everything and the coach will help me find the right solutions”
Score for the final
“For a player and a striker, scoring is important in all matches. Even tomorrow. Kvara’s position? I try to adapt to the coach’s choices. Having players like him close by is always good”
On withdrawal and contacts with Adl
“The retreat is a good way to be together and understand that we are all in the same boat. We haven’t seen the president in these days. We try to work and stay united. The less we talk about, the better in these moments. They only matter the facts.”
