Napoli, Sarri: "Preparing for Juventus with no players will be difficult"

Napoli escaped victorious in their match against Empoli, with star performances from Insigne and Mertens. As Napoli heads into the international break, their coach Sarri gave his post-match thoughts to Sky Sport: "I don't understand why we are always getting given this matches at 12:30 in the afternoon. It's silly to me to play then. I, unlike others, will actually say it. We saw the usual mistakes, we are not controlling the game well, and this is a risk for us. I expected that Empoli would react to us like that. Jorginho was substituted because he was cautioned, I couldn't risk it. It was a necessary move, but after the change we played worse. It was my screw up to take him out. It's hard now, the obligations of the national teams: many of the players had suitcases in their cars." Finally, a word from Sarri on preparations for facing Juventus: "How can I do this? There is nobody here, fortunately it will be a fantastic match, but I will be giving up some of my tactical preparation."
