Napoli manager Rino Gattuso was all smiles after his Napoli defeated La Liga leaders Real Sociedad in Europa League play. He spoke with Sky Sport after the match.
"We've played 50% of qualification, losing against AZ at the beginning made our lives difficult. It was not easy to come here against this healthy team. Usually in the league they don't press so high, today they did not let us play. I liked the players a lot at the tactical level, we can do better with quality."
"After 25 minutes we changed our character, we didn't go to take them high anymore, given that we had risked two or three times doing that, but we expected that. Insigne? He told me that he stopped in time, we'll see tomorrow's tests."
"Can we win the scudetto? Sincerely I do not know, maybe we can. I know that the team is playing with great seriousness and is very strong. The guys give me a lot of security, but I would like for the quality that we have to come into these stadiums and play in a different way. Even changing 5 or 6, the mentality must remain the same. It's still important for us to get to Champions League, then we'll see. We're all living strange sensations. When you wake up in the morning, you must make the sign of the cross to lose as few of players as possible."
