The postponement of the 22nd matchday of Serie A will be played tonight at 8.45 pm at the Ferraris Stadium:
Sampdoria-Napoli 0-0 LIVE FROM 8.45pm


The 'galacticos' are back and Gattuso feels more relaxed. In Genoa tonight against Sampdoria, Napoli find Koulibaly, Mertens, Allan and Maksimovic together and the coach, also thanks to the contribution that newcomers will be able to make with the January market, has a series of solutions with which, from when he arrived in Naples, he had never been able to confront, due to repeated injuries. '' With Sampdoria - says the coach - a battle awaits us, if we think of playing foil after beating Juventus we are all wrong. With Ranieri, Samp has become a team from the first positions, it can defend well, it leaves few spaces. I am worried, I face a great coach, a marpione who can wrap it for me. For us, this race is fundamental and I told the players for the first time to look at the ranking as well, because if we take away three points and reach thirty it is an important step. The goal remains to go as high as possible but knowing that there is no being favorite: the next six games are difficult, because if you are not with your head you also lose with Beretti and Primavera ''. '' Today - explains Gattuso, underlining the importance of recovering the big injured players, whom he called precisely 'the tribune of the galacticos' - we did the finishing for the first time without the six-seven Primavera and when you see them all on the pitch music is different. Only Ruiz is out because he hasn't been to the camp for 4 days, he's sick with the flu. ''

In reality, a training doubt also concerns Demme who hasn't been able to train well for a couple of days. However, the player left for Genoa in the evening and will be evaluated before the game. '' Koulibaly - says the Napoli coach - has trained continuously but not 100%, Maksimovic is instead 100%. Mertens has done a good job and will certainly be ours. Allan also worked well and is called up. Already the fact that we leave almost all together is a good sign ''. Politano, the latest addition to Napoli, will also be in Genoa. Will he leave the bench, ready to take the field? '' For two days - says Gattuso - he had the flu, yesterday and today he trained and is available He is a very strong player who can help us, last year he made the difference at Inter which he didn't let me go to the Champions League for a point, I hit my teeth against it. '' '' I believe - adds the technician - that we are on the right track, but I repeat that there is no need to relax or be lulled. We have not done anything, we are behind in the standings compared to our value and we must prove it on the field. We must push hard to leave, because I repeat that a battle awaits us. '' The market is over and Gattuso is satisfied with it. '' I am very happy - he says - with the market, I thank the president for the money he has invested and the sports director. They made me available to a competitive team. De Laurentiis - he concludes - always tells me did you want the bicycle? I like to ride with those who made me available.
