Raffaele Auriemma spoke to Club Napoli Night broadcast on Teleclubitalia on the eve of the return leg of Europa League with the Barcelona at the Maradona Stadium.
The journalist defined the draw in Cagliari “a divine blessing”And stated that the Naples he is fully in the running for the championship title, showering Victor with praise Osimhenthe true spearhead of the blue attack.
And on the delicate European match, Auriemma thinks that there is only one way for Napoli will be able to win: playing as he knows how to do.
Here are his words:
“Spalletti he may have done well or badly to change form in Cagliari, but he is one that calculate all the moves. He knows that Napoli can win the Scudetto. Not even the others are doing better, the fight will be three and there are still twelve more days. The ranking of the calendar year, from January 6 to today, tells us that Napoli is first with 15 points out of 21 available. The draw of Cagliari was one divine blessing. In other times, Napoli would have lost these matches. Maybe without Ospina’s mistake, you could win with Osimhen’s pumpkin“.
“I would have put Malcuit wide right with Diamond on the left, being two also used to cover and the two tips. Mertensalas, time passes for him tooe Petagna that plays too much back to door. But what is certain is that without the Nigerian, Napoli would have lostas happened in the house with Empoli e Spice. Against the Lazio i expect a Naples with the conviction of succeeding because objectively the blues are stronger”.
“With Barça, Napoli must not play a wait-and-see match, he must play while he can. I think it will be a different game than the first leg, there will also be the return of Badge. I bet on Osimhen, he is the crack of this team. In a few years he will become a very important player. The attacking outsiders so far they didn’t play to their levelfrom Insigne e Politano much more is expected. To overcome Barcelona you don’t need a miraclebut only one great match that Napoli can face. In difficult matches, the blue team is unlikely to make a mistake“.
