hello, i’ve a question about napoli from this summer:
why de laurentis he took garcia has coach of napoli?
from the summer i read everyday a lot of comment, and heard a lot of people, about how wrong is garcia is as coach of napoli.
in fact the team is not performing well.
from a team that had win a scudetto, a strong team, why bring garcia of everyone knows he would not have been able to manage the napoli?
also, bayern bought a important player as kim and the club buy natan to replace him. No? he is not the same level of kim.
i don’t understand.
Honestly i do not full understand why ADL choose to make a step backwards instead to make a step forward.
I have the feelings that everything was made to keep the team as the previous season but make it as the shadow of last year. Without a good coach, CB and manager is clear that is impossible for napoli to be at the same level as the previous year, also because the replacements taken are not at the same level of their predecesseor (atm, maybe in the future they could be good).
my doubt is why ADL seems to be falling from the clouds?
he has (not) worked to make the team at the same level as last year (and it was clear from the fact that during the summer both he and Garcia said that the goal is to qualify for the champions and not win the Scudetto again) so why instead of making the necessary interventions this summer is he doing it now?
why voluntarily choose to downgrade instead of trying to consecrate the current squad?
at this point he might as well have sold osimhen and kvara, now there’s even a risk of them losing value
P.S. im not a napoli supporter, so my questions are from an outsider view.
Because he’s an egomaniac AND a cheapskate!
Strengthening the squad in order to firmly establish it as a title challenger would have required a lot of money and a stable vision.
Neither of which are in his mind, as he doesn’t want to (can’t) spend insane money and he’s unable to let the manager work without interfering or putting his foot in his mouth on the media.
Selling Kvara or Osimhen would have been the smart option, but without a clear idea of who bring in to replace them it’d have been an even bigger risk and mistake.
Not every half known prospect will turn out great… So the ideal option would have been keeping them and IMPROVING the squad instead of weakening it and signing a bunch of backups.
