Carnevale: Napoli's squad is deep enough to find a way back
Napoli's 1986-87 title-winning striker, now an executive at Udinese, doesn't dodge the club's slow start on Canale 8 — but says the squad has the depth to turn it around.
Andrea Carnevale, part of Napoli's 1986-87 title-winning side and now an executive at Udinese, didn't dodge the issue on Canale 8: "Napoli have started really badly, but I'm fairly confident, and you have to be, because in football there are wins and there are defeats."
Allegri's side sit ninth with seven points from five games, their worst start in ten years according to Opta, and their last result was a 1-1 draw at Fiorentina. Carnevale points to the depth of the squad as reason to keep believing: "Napoli have quite a wide squad, and I'm convinced they'll find the right way to keep being the team that has entertained us in recent years."
