Naples, evidence of rebirth in the national team for Kvaratskhelia

Naples, 16 October 2023 - Finally the verdict on the conditions of Victor Osimhen has arrived and it is a two-sided sentence: the fears linked to a knee injury have probably been averted, but the Nigerian will still be unavailable for several weeks. But beware of demonizing them National: for a player who leaves (virtually) with broken bones from the break, there is another who is reborn thanks to his own representative team. It is the case of Khvisha Kvaratskhelia, who scores, produces assists and even gets married.  

Evidence of rebirth

The opponents (Thailand e Cyprus) are certainly not the most reliable to certify a rebirth that the Georgian, in blue, had already begun againstUdinese, interrupting a goal drought that had lasted for months. Then the number 77 got lost again in the folds of a Napoli which, in turn, has entered another phase of decline: the one it had led Aurelio De Laurentiis to take advantage of the break to try to change coach. The rest is known history: the no of Antonio Conte it blew up the plans of the owner, who therefore preferred to wait, granting the current blue coach another period of time to try to straighten out the situation. In theory they could be 3 games (those against Greece Verona, Union Berlin e Milan) or even until the next stop, that of November, but with De Laurentiis fixing concepts, dates and deadlines is a risk. The patron, by his own admission, is often very impulsive: the exception, paradoxically, is represented by this stop, which (almost) passed unscathed despite the storm post Fiorentina. In reality, it is good to remember, the earthquake had happened: only the denial of Tale, motivated in these hours by the desire not to rush onto certain trains, confirmed Garcia. Not only that: the same hard core of the locker room Napoli, apparently and in spite of any tension or poison, has voted its confidence in its coach, who so far has also paid for the lack of verve of some key men. Among them indeed kvaratskhelia, who is slowly trying to return to that elusive ferret from the first part of last season. A nice hand to Napoli they may have given her the much reviled National: with the shirt of his representative team, the Georgian returns to the best version of himself, the one that just over a year ago, in just a few weeks, transformed him from a complete unknown in the world of football into a world-famous top player. Perhaps that very sudden revolution, along the way, proved detrimental to Fourth: especially in a very demanding place like the Neapolitan one. Piazza, however, paradoxically, has always treated the Georgian with velvet gloves, who has benefited from a climate of eternal gratitude with almost merciful traits that other players, perhaps with an even longer militancy in blue, have never known. One name above all: Alex Meret, the main scapegoat for every defeat.

The parable of Kvaratskhelia

  The same GarciaApparently, lately he doesn't see Friulian as an immovable element of his own Napoli: an authentic idea or an implicit way to gain points in the eyes of the fans? Certainly, whoever is called upon to defend the blue posts in the next matches will still have to deal with a patched up rearguard. While Amir Rrahmani he seems fully recovered and therefore about to regain his place on the pitch, Juan Jesus he stopped again, thus confirming the fears linked to a very worrying physical condition also from a future perspective. At the moment the main problems of the Napoli they are others: also because, despite the chaos of the last period, it is Leo Ostigard is Nathan they have shown that they can play their cards in blue. Indeed: the Norwegian has also transformed himself into a sort of backup bomber, going in just a few days to surpass the offensive turnover of kvaratskhelia in the last semester. A beautiful paradox that says a lot about how lucky episodes can change (at least in the short term) the course of a career. In one sense or another. He knows it well kvaratskhelia, who went from an absolute idol deserving of the most illustrious comparison in the Campania capital to an involuted player and victim of himself, his opponents and the referees, who began to raise the threshold of tolerance in the event of contact with defenders. This last point, in reality, paradoxically works on the side of the Georgian, who during the height of the most complicated period was beginning to earn some bad names: it starts with that, very common in football, of 'diver' and ends up the other, equally widespread, of meteora, complete with new comparisons with former players who, in this case, no longer responded to the name of Diego Armando Maradona. All very nice, but who is the real one kvaratskhelia and what is its real level? In fact, so far we have seen the best and the worst of the Georgian: a pendulum that swings for all players, even if for some with crazy speed that ends up confusing ideas. We were talking about nomee. In reality, for number 77 there is another one out there that has yet to be denied by the facts: that of being normally lethal mainly against medium-small teams. Here, in this case not even the exploit in National can help. However, there are several very suggestive events on the horizon for kvaratskhelia: we start from thatGreece Verona which last year immediately projected him to the pinnacle of Italian football thanks to an extraordinary performance which would then be the appetizer for the scudetto gained at the end of the championship. Then the stage of the Champions League, the one on which the Georgian has so far appeared too intermittently. It's also the fault (if one can say so) of the Milan, which last season broke the dream of Napoli also thanks to an amazing Rafael Leao, who won the long-distance duel with the blue number 77. A further incentive for the new groom kvaratskhelia find the path to definitive rebirth.
