Napoli concluded their last match with a result that brought back the missing three points, thanks to an attacking performance that saw striker Hojlund score two goals and Politano, Rafa Marin and King Kevin complete the goal. With this result the club starts from fourth position in the table, with an average of 11 goals in three matches which has sparked comments on the alleged "short-snout" of coach Allegri.
The match against Monza, played in San Paolo, was a setback after a season in which Napoli struggled to find consistency. The club started the season with difficulty, but has shown that it can compete with high-level teams, as demonstrated by the Champions League victory against Bodo and the draw against Gasp. However, the match against Monza was characterized by a slow start and technical errors, especially by Di Lorenzo and Rrahmani, which left the team in difficulty.
Despite this, Hojlund managed to strike with a goal, but was then punished by the excellent Varela, who scored his eighth goal in eight games so far. Monza tried to react, but Napoli maintained control of the game and ended the match with four goals in total. The result brought the club back to eleven goals in three matches, an impressive average which sparked discussions about Allegri's alleged "short-snout".
Napoli also had to deal with some injury issues. Lobotka, who played an important role in the team, was forced to leave the field due to injury. Other players, including Alisson, Badiashile, Buongiorno, Favasuli, Neres and Spinazzola, were injured and left the team in a difficult situation. The club faced a series of challenges ahead of the upcoming matches against Juve, Porto and Lazio, which could put the team to the test.
Napoli have shown that they have a talented player in defence, with Hojlund having been described as a dangerous attacker when the team gives him the chance to play. However, the club had to deal with a series of injuries which left the team in a difficult situation. Napoli will have to approach the next matches with caution, but they have shown that they have the ability to compete with the strongest teams in the championship.
