Naples struggling with a new injury, and Antonio Conte has decided to deal philosophically with the new inconvenience. After spending several weeks stressing how absences have affected his team’s performance, at the end of the drawn home game against Roma the Salento coach spoke about yet another forfeit in his squad: that of Amir Rrahmani. But this time he dealt with the inconvenience with words somewhere between sarcasm and resignation.

"Scandal” for Caterina Balivo: there's an uncle” … interista
The presenter, super supporter of Napoli, told that in the family there's a black sheep. Indeed, nerazzurra.
He did so in a recent interview granted to the 'Gazzetta dello Sport'. "A scandal" she smiled.
Tons of concepts expressed by the good (and beautiful) Campanian conductor.
"Napoli is experienced as a true faith by those born and raised in the city".
His first times at the stadium go back to'childhood, in the Maradona period.
"There'was also Naldi’s Napoli in Serie B and failure. And I was there'I was"
"Then the slow rise with De Laurentiis from Serie C. And there'I was also there".
In the last three years Napoli has won two championships.

"Winning two titles in three years is something huge".

"Conte’s reappointment was the best news of the'year".
"Soccer looks like life: there are ups, downs, falls and restarts".
"When you are on a high you must rejoice without forgetting that nothing lasts forever".

“I don’t know how he is – Conte told ‘DAZN’ when questioned about Rrahmani’s condition – But by now losing one more or one less is no longer a problem. We will find a solution, again. I don’t know if he will be able to play the next game. If it will be possible we will be happy, if it cannot be we will find a solution. But at this point always talking about injuries becomes an almost stupid exercise. Let us rather focus on Napoli, which is going beyond all obstacles”.

Well different words than those that Conte himself had pronounced after his Napoli team’s elimination from the Coppa Italia, at the hands of Como. “How do you anticipate the injuries of Lukaku, Di Lorenzo, how would it be possible to budget for all this? What are we supposed to do, go to the shrine and say a prayer? They always play the same ones, then you also lose McTominay because of a little problem. I don”t think something like this has ever happened to anyone else, then the club told me that nothing could be done in the market” he had complained.

Conte, on the other hand, praised his Napoli team for the 2-2 against the Giallorossi. “To twice put back a goal to Roma was not easy – he pointed out -. The match was good and entertaining, now we have 13 more to build our future and determine in which European competition we will qualify for next season”.

Good signs, finally, from Napoli’s new faces. “Giovane and Alisson are two guys the club got in January. You know that Napoli could not make a market, in fact they arrived at zero cost. They have been with us for two weeks, they have to understand our situation but they have desire and humility. I am very happy with them”, Conte said.
