At the end of Napoli-Roma, the Giallorossi coach Claudio Ranieri made some statements. Here are his words:
Ranieri and Sky
The match?
“If we go back, we have problems and we played against a team fighting for the championship, so I’m happy. We made some mistakes that we will analyze, but the desire to get back up was there: I’m positive”
The changes at half-time?
“We wanted to keep the ball more and so it was, we tried to block the diagonals. Often Lukaku was alone or against two of us, I tried to square behind and then sink.”
Dybala?
“I risked him to give it my all in the final. I was scared, but he hadn’t felt any pain since yesterday. He should be 100% by this week and we’ll see for Tottenham.”
The big names in the locker room?
“They must have personality to help themselves and others. I found a closed team, I tried to give them serenity and joy in playing, in fact in the second half we moved the ball more. We didn’t give Napoli too many chances, we had some us too. Come on, we have to know how to react.”
Ranieri and Dazn
What is the most suitable game system for the team?
“There is no basic game system, the important thing is to understand when to close well, we made two mistakes, the first on Kvara and the second on the goal. We played a decent match, we need to weigh the team’s current form, Napoli were overtaken in the standings and we are in a more delicate situation. In the second half we had possession of the ball and two chances with Dovbyk and Baldanzi. It’s true that Neres had one chance, but we were all on the attack. The team can play 4-4-2 and 3-5-2, it depends on the interpreters because then you have to push on the wingers.”
Dybala’s condition?
“I took a risk in fielding him, he’s recovering, but I took a risk by telling him do what you can. I prefer to have a player a week later, but not that he gets hurt again, he assured me he was fine and we tried. He’s a player with magical shots and with Napoli all closed behind me I tried to throw him onto the pitch given his skills.”
About Pellegrini.
“I needed other types of players since I changed formation. Lorenzo is going through a particular period and I’m trying to help him.”
