If you start going down the list, there really aren't many players left from the Conte era. Lautaro, Bastoni, Barella, de Vrij, and Darmian. Everyone else is new.Think our players will be motivated as fuck against conte. He kinda left implying they weren't good enough for him.
Yeah, and I doubt anyone who is left give a toss about proving anything to Conte.If you start going down the list, there really aren't many players left from the Conte era. Lautaro, Bastoni, Barella, de Vrij, and Darmian. Everyone else is new.
Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis is reluctant to swap striker Victor Osimhen for Chelsea's Romelu Lukaku, with the Belgian's high salary and injury record both major problems for the Serie A side. (Area Napoli - Italy)

“In previous days, he had spoken about the transfer window, but this time, he said something different: ‘We can even sign two, three or four players, but you can’t buy character and determination.’ What he said is even more worrying,” noted ex-Italian striker Di Canio during Sky Sport Italia’s post-match show on Sunday.
“We recognise that Conte has the ability to re-motivate the players,” continued Di Canio. “But when he says something like that, it gives you the idea of somebody who thinks: ‘Why did I even come here?’
“We must wear a nice suit. I want and have the pleasure of always offering a nice show on a footballing level,” said Conte in his pre-match press conference via FcInterNews.
“But during matches, it is inevitable to be ready to get some dirt on your nice suit, just out of the tailor.
Glad that Conte is taking notes and Simone is helping him reach another level“It is the winning combination for great teams because there are different moments in a match.
“I’ll give you an example: yesterday Inter alternated moments in which they played football and others in which they were all defending in the last 25 meters.
“They showed that they are a team with a capital ‘T’. You can’t wear just one suit, we have to understand that.
Wasn't Conte unemployed last season?“Last season, we often thought about attacking and there was little balance, there was no fierce desire to win back the ball or to regroup. We are working on this aspect.”
hate to see him and Lakaka lifting serie a trophyCongratulations on another title brother.
Been thinking the same - If Napoli loses another game or 2 like this before the next transferperiod in january, he'll for sure start pressuring Delaurentiis for new players.3-0 loss to atlanta, time will tell that he will implode and leave.
Idk my memory of Conte is that we were pretty shit in big games, whereas as we routinely demolished the teams we were supposed to beat.Been thinking the same - If Napoli loses another game or 2 like this before the next transferperiod in january, he'll for sure start pressuring Delaurentiis for new players.
But they will likely rebound against Inter - I don't see a Conte team lose like they did to Atalanta twice in a row.
Vs milan he had 4 wins 1 lossIdk my memory of Conte is that we were pretty shit in big games, whereas as we routinely demolished the teams we were supposed to beat.
I have vague memories of Lukaku fucking up a big chance in the Juve away match.Vs milan he had 4 wins 1 loss
Vs Juventus 3 losses 1 win
Roma 1 win 3 draws
Lazio 2 wins 1 draw 1 loss
Vs napoli 3 wins 1 draw
Vs atalanta 2 wins 2 draws
Not sure if this means we were shit in big games. That juventus away game, when we already clinched scudetto and they needed a win, Calvarese's refereeing was dodgy as fuck. Without his and Cuadrado's shenanigans we were at least drawing that game.
And we all have vivid memories of Lukaku fucking up in two European finalsI have vague memories of Lukaku fucking up a big chance in the Juve away match.
