Conte's statements
Individuals: the conditions of Lobotka, Neres and Buongiorno Despite the growing euphoria in the square, Tale immediately tries to restore at least a little calm. "We must try to finish the job in a serious way, as we have done so far, also based on what was said in June. I have been at home more this week, for various reasons. However, I have had the opportunity to visit the city: I must say that I am finding great responsibility from our supporters. The fan dreams, like us, of something important, but I am finding great maturity. There are people who say the most beautiful thing, thanking us for the work we are doing: this is the greatest satisfaction". Not only the legitimate anxieties a few steps away from the finish line: the conditions of key (but bruised) players such as Stanislav Lobotka, David Neres e Alessandro Good morning. The verdict of Tale It's about two half smiles and instead one piece of bad news, although not surprisingly. "Lobotka yesterday he returned to the group: he trained today too, he'll be there again tomorrow morning as a final test to make the best decision. He's an important player in our mechanisms, he also has experience and maturity that make him strong and decisive in the mechanisms: I wouldn't want to do without him, for sure. Neres yesterday he returned to train partially with us and today he worked with the group: I think he could be called up for the bench also to taste the atmosphere again. Just seeing him with us is important, for him and for us, because he is a player who makes the difference. Good morning instead - continue Tale - he is still stopped: he has not resumed his activity, we will have to wait. This week he can start working a little, but it is more difficult for him and Juan Jesus, another one who is dying to come back: he says he is ready and the doctors are holding him back, but I appreciate everyone's desire to make themselves available immediately". In short, little by little every piece of the Azzurri seems to be falling into place: all while the coach remains enigmatic about his future at the end of the season. "The fan at the moment has other priorities. He wants to win and I tell him that we will try. The rest is boring". First, in fact, there is a championship to finish by overtaking Inter in the standings who tomorrow will play against Turin 18 and therefore before the Napoli, who will therefore take the field knowing the rival's result. "The pressure will be there regardless: we will have to be good at directing it in a positive way, so that it helps us stay focused, have desire, motivation. I think we should play the next two games at the same time and it will be even better. We know that nothing will change regardless: we have to think about our own, knowing full well that we are facing a team that has made life difficult for many". Towards Genoa Tale It focuses precisely on a Genoa safe and sound, but perhaps even more insidious for this reason. "I saw the last one with Milan: a great match despite the result. They will come to play the match to be a nuisance, as it should be". The same first leg, dominated by Napoli in the first half before a second half with very different hues. "I remember that match very well, I watched it again and we also reflected on that one on what we could do better. It's a difficult match, like the other two, because we're playing for our lives on a sporting level and our opponents will want to make a good impression. There will be a heated atmosphere, but I haven't seen anyone lay down their arms before playing: especially not against the Napoli at this moment". In general, the Azzurri still seem to be declining in the second half: for Tale it's not exactly like that. "There were second halves in which we suffered more, but often it's a perception. There were also matches with important second halfs that changed the history of the match like with Juventus e Inter, and others where we managed well until the end as with Turin and LecceWe won 1-0, but two goals were still disallowed, one by millimetres, it is also part of a growth path of a group of boys who found themselves in the lead for many days. We did not start out as favourites for everyone: we started out to be a nuisance and we never forget it. When we suffer, the suffering becomes beautiful for us, remembering last year where we really suffered". Now the imperative for the Napoli is to close the games, escaping the risk of the proverbial tennis elbow. "There are three finals left: we must try to win on the court through work. We must be focused only on what we train on, to highlight the opponents' defects and our own merits. It's pressure, but there is positive and negative stress. Everything starts from the head and if I had to use a word I would say 'resilience': being ready to endure fatigue, the obstacle, overcome it and move on. "
