60th minute against Leipzig tonight Napoli was leading 1-0. Sarri made three changes at 60th minute, I dont know what he was planning to do if there was injury but anyway Napoli conceded 3 goals after those changes and lost the game 1-3.

Napoli don't give a shit about Europa League. It was self-sabotage and they did it consciously.

The team is all in for the Seria A title this season, it's the club's best opportunity since Maradona. If they blow it, it will probably take them at least another decade to build a new team that can challenge for the Scudeto. Most of the current players are either old, either will want to leave the club at the end of the season and they do not have the financial power to go after world class replacements. They will have to re-build.

FUCKING HELL can we keep on the subject thread, CONTE.

Not fucking Pochettino or Cahill, or anyone else for that matter

What a boring lineup. 

He really has no more ambition with us. 

Gone this summer.

And again he brings the best out of a rather ordinary side. You can have your Tuchels and Sarris, but until we don´t change our profil of players we won´t play beautiful football. Conte is the man.

Giroud probably would have scored and put in a cameo performance and won it for us. #ConteOut #CunteOut

Only way to play with Fabregas and not Drinkwater against side like this was to compensate mobility somewhere else on the field. Conte did that by playing Pedro instead of Morata/Giroud. So with the help of Willian and Pedro, Fabregas wasn't exposed much for Barca.

Never, ever in this game Barcelona looked like scoring. And he benched our captain, who is also an Englishman, against bloody Barcelona.

This man deserves all the praise he can get. Hats off.

Very good performance until the first goal. Then, all of the sudden, when we should have brought in Giroud and continued to chase for another goal, the team parked the bus. I truly hate when that happens. I hated when Mourinho did that and I hate it now when Conte does it. You can park the damn bus when game is 2-0, 3-0 but not when it's only 1-0 at home. Barcelona was very poor but for some reason we gave them the chance to tie the game by retreating.

When did we park the bus? It was just one of those spells where Barcelona bossed the possession and ultimately did nothing with it. Same thing happened in the first half. We had counter attacking chances after going 1-0 up and should have punished them but didn't.

Not sure if was just the occasion but the Conte we saw on the touchline tonight was more like the Conte of old. Very animated and was hugely 'involved' in the game.
