Chelsea legend Zola warns Pep & Man City over Napoli

Chelsea legend Gianfranco Zola has released an interview with Il Mattino sharing his thoughts on the incoming Champions League clash between Manchester City and Napoli. Sarri and Guardiola’s teams play some of the best football in the country at the moment and Zola has warned the Spanish tactician.

“Both clubs have their own identity, they are very similar. Pep likes playing wider than Sarri, Napoli make lot of short passes. It will be an amazing game. City have improved technically but it’s not going to be an easy game for them. City are the favourites but I wouldn’t underestimate Napoli.”

“Napoli play the best football in Italy, they deserve to be table leaders because they have made some big sacrifices and they are so amusing to watch.”

“I’ve studied their style, the way they play, I like teams like Napoli, they never waste the ball possession, they play so well in tight spaces and there is no difference between home and away games. They have 12 at home and 14 away this season.”
