Walter Mazzari opened his first press conference of the year with his hopes for Napoli in the second half of the season. The Azzurri coach still has faith despite recent performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI want to turn it around in 2024. I trust that in the new year we can really do well in the second half of Serie A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m disappointed the squad is in this situation because against Monza we created a lot and we deserved to win. We weren\u2019t lacking in creating chances but in finishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI feel at home at Napoli. What makes me uneasy is that I haven\u2019t yet managed to do what I did during my first time here. I feel indebted to the fans, who show so much love every day. I try to pass that feeling on to my players too and I\u2019m convinced that soon we\u2019ll reach a positive turning point.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Napoli\u2019s new signing Pasquale Mazzochi:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMazzochi is an exceptional lad. He\u2019s very motivated. He was born in Naples and has lots of energy. This is something very important to me because anyone who comes in with this type of enthusiasm can transmit that to their team-mates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a quality player. He can play in more than one position and is a jack-of-all-trades. He can give a lot. I\u2019m happy he\u2019s here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You haven\u2019t got many players available. Is that a worry?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYes. It\u2019s a point we have to talk about because since the Bergamo match, my first game, we\u2019ve had injuries and breaks that have impacted us. I\u2019d also like to see a change in this respect in the new year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m a bit worried at the moment because I\u2019ve got a few players out tomorrow. I\u2019ve got doubts over Juan Jesus and Gianluca Gaetano. We\u2019ll see after today\u2019s training session how things are going.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you think you\u2019ll have to make a tactical change?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m not going to use a three-man defence. I haven\u2019t done it over the past few months, and I don\u2019t think it\u2019s the right thing to do. I\u2019ve heard a lot of talk over the past week, but you need to look at things closely. Against Monza, we ended the game in a 4-2-4. We had a great chance created by Giovanni Simeone for Gaetano, both of whom had only just been subbed on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis means that beyond formations, the efforts to get a win were there. We haven\u2019t had much luck or precision in front of goal, but I said to the lads that if they continue to create chances, the goals will come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What type of game are you expecting from Torino tomorrow?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re up against a great team that have become even stronger. Torino defend well but also know how to attack. We\u2019ve got to give a performance similar to that against Monza. I liked how the team played.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who will replace Victor Osimhen?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve got two different forwards who are both very good. I\u2019ll decide who to play depending on the characteristics of the match and the game situations. It\u2019s my choice and I know what Simeone and Giacomo Raspadori can give me. Simeone is a great lad. He\u2019s invaluable to his team-mates and he always trains well. It never seems like he plays less. That\u2019s something very important for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do you think of Napoli at the moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m trying to work on performance. I\u2019ve seen that the team concede less and create more. But right now, we\u2019re missing the ability to convert our chances and finish. We get in front of goal easily but we\u2019re not precise enough. If we improve in this respect, it will help us grow and do well in the future. Unfortunately, opinions have changed due to our results, and we have to accept that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNapoli are a team that were made to play football. We need to keep the ball on the ground and move it around. We created lots of good chances against Monza by doing that. Goals can come from set-pieces and we\u2019re looking for solutions in that sense too, even though we haven\u2019t got many taller players.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On questions surrounding referee decisions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith all the technology we have nowadays I find it astonishing that opponents can get away with winding up a forward off the ball. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for example is constantly being targeted by opponents. He gets all kinds of abuse and isn\u2019t protected. I was sent off between a clear foul on Mario Rui and a booking for Kvara, who had been targeted the whole match. With all the tools we have at the moment, things like this can\u2019t happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
