The change of coach was of course quite a big influence, especially since Spalletti was one of the teams that made Napoli's performance improve drastically and only in Spalletti's hands could the Napoli team be successful in the last few seasons.
And Spalletti's departure was the end of everything which required the Napoli team to start all over again to work on building this team into a strong team again and that was not easy.
For now, I think Napoli will need the next few seasons to be able to return to being one of the top teams competing for the title, and this season there is clearly nothing more to expect from Napoli.

i predict that napoli will only stop in mid-table for the next few seasons, it will be difficult for them to return to the top 5, the role of the coach is very important for the future of napoli, and finding a figure like spalletti is difficult, maybe it is homework to do.  napoli's urgent need is to find a competent coach who is suitable to train the napoli squad, but until now there has been no clear speculation about napoli's transfer.

the match between Lazio vs Salernitana is in progress, Lazio is currently leading by 3 goals ^{(it is very likely that they will win)}, in the second half it seems that both teams will not score any more goals.

[kawetsriyanto]

Lazio looked like they had the job done from the first half. They took no mercy on last place Salernitana and scored 3 goals in the first half. Felipe Anderson scored two of these goals. He previously had a total of three goals in the league. What I don't understand is, isn't there a pure striker in Lazio? Taty Castellano plays forward. Even though they played without a centre-forward, this result is very good for them. Their inability to back up Immobile shows their squad depth is weak. They won't have any problems against opponents like Salernitana, but they will have a lot of trouble in bigger matches.

It is clear that Lazio will win this match easily because they play against the weakest team in Serie A. Salernitana is in the bottom of Serie A standings, they become the team that have most conceded goals this season. I even think Lazio may score more goals in second half, they possibly score 5 goals if they keep playing offensively.

Well, Felipe Anderson succeeded scoring 2 goals to make Lazio is leading with comfortable score. Castellano seems to score as well if he can get a good chance. But I'm not really sure about this because Castellano isn't a very productive striker in Serie A. Immobile is still a better striker in Lazio but he got injured and not available for this match.

By the way, this win will make Lazio to stay in the top 8 of Serie A standings. They still have a chance to finish in 6th place, I doubt if they can return to the top 5.

This is the type of result you see when are team that is searching for a good thing plays with a team that is already helpless at the bottom of the table because right now, the team is sure of going to the relegation while their opponent Lazio is lookibg for all possible means to be among the top 4 so that they can be amobg the teams in the champions league next season. Lazio is having a good performance in the match so they won't be missing the presence of a centre forward which they are not playing with and having gotten 3 goals  already in the first half, they are sure of adding more goals in the second half to take the 3 points home.

Napoli's failure to maintain their best form this season is due to the departure of Luciano Spalletti at the end of last season. Luciano Spalletti is a coach who had a big influence on Napoli's good performance last season so that they were able to win the title, but Napoli was so devastated this season that they had to change several coaches in one season.

This can happen to any other team, but if the coach brought in is an experienced coach and has been proven to have a good record, then change can be expected. Napoli failed to get a good coach, so its failure is understandable this season.

This time, Lazio really experienced a big win against Salernitana. After getting 3 goals in the first half, in the second half, they were able to add 1 more goal. So, the final score when the match ends is 4 - 1.
This time, Lazio really dominated the match, they were also able to pressure Salernitana quite well. Just try if they can do this in every match, then this will really help them climb the rankings consistently.

That simply means Lazio have gotten what they wanted, which is to meet a small team and gain more points than expected, which they did, but that is not the end of the deal because they will still meet with a bigger team in some weeks because if AS Roma can win them, that means their weakness is getting out of hand and needs to be tackled, so congratulations to their success today, and I wish they should still continue because most of their future games for now are with smaller teams than them, which if they did a good performance, it will reflect on the results. 

Although I didn’t watch the game, I saw the results, which make me feel like it can still be an opportunity for Lazio to gather as many points as they need to see if they can still make it to the top 5 in the table, which might somehow be hard for them, but due to the chances with the smaller team, I think they can still achieve it.

Lazio collected another point in week 32, and yes they did get the job done in the first half very well, of course this match was very easy for Lazio against Salernitana because it was the worst team this season and had no hope of continuing to compete in the Serie A league because it was the bottom team with a bad match, lucky enough to produce a goal in this match for Salernitana so it was good enough to fight Lazio with the point of blood.
Tudor may be experimenting with a new strategy, and I think it's natural to do that in the opportunity against Salernitana to test, but it seems pretty good just needs to be improved again.

Then it's just a matter of waiting for the season to end and Salernitana to compete again for entry into the Serie A league.

Lazio finished the match very well by ending with a score of 4-1. In this match Lazio made it look easier. And this proves that at the start of the season Lazio were actually quite strong, but their focus was divided into several competitions such as the UCL and made them lose focus on Serie A. And resulted in poor results at the start of the season. But after Lazio failed in the UCL, now they are starting to focus again on Serie A and as a result they have improved their performance again in every match in Serie A. Maybe Lazio will try to catch up with them in chasing tickets to the European League or even the UCL again. But I think it will still be difficult. Because Roma and Atalanta are also struggling hard. But with 7 matches remaining, the chance actually still exists, although it is quite slim.

[coinlocket$]

After Sarri, Lazio started to score more points than before.

Lazio and Roma have shown that changing coaches on the fly is not always a bad choice, Mou has been forgotten quite quickly in the capital, and soon Sarri probably will be too.

Salernitatta almost certainly relegated to Serie B.

The challenge for the other two places is probably the most interesting thing left in this championship

That simply means Lazio have gotten what they wanted, which is to meet a small team and gain more points than expected, which they did, but that is not the end of the deal because they will still meet with a bigger team in some weeks because if AS Roma can win them, that means their weakness is getting out of hand and needs to be tackled, so congratulations to their success today, and I wish they should still continue because most of their future games for now are with smaller teams than them, which if they did a good performance, it will reflect on the results. 

With the current performance of Lazio, they deserve the win not because they meet with a weak team, and I'm very sure that they can maintain this good performance throughout their future matches, since all their future opponents are not strong teams. But with that, Lazio's performance is really improving now, so I doubt that even though they meet with tough teams, they will put in much effort and show their strength against any of their opponents.

Although I didn’t watch the game, I saw the results, which make me feel like it can still be an opportunity for Lazio to gather as many points as they need to see if they can still make it to the top 5 in the table, which might somehow be hard for them, but due to the chances with the smaller team, I think they can still achieve it.

Lazio have so many opportunities to gather three points,  point of correction, not because Lazio has chances to meet with smaller teams. I have confidence that they can definitely advance to the top 5 in the table, and they will not only stop at the top 5. Because their performance proves that they have much power to overtake any teams, both strong and weak teams.

[Richbased]

Salernitana no longer has a chance to get out of the relegation zone even though they will continue to try to do that for the remainder of this season. Because with a collection of 15 points and being in last place in the league, it will certainly be difficult for Salernitana to get themselves out of this bad zone. Moreover, today Salernitana will face Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico, clearly it will be quite difficult for Salernitana to win because Lazio will not let the visiting team beat them in the opportunity that exists today.

They are so far from the safe zone, so I can say they have been relegated this season, because I see it is impossible for them to survive relegation this season.
Now they are competing against Lazio at Lazio's headquarters, and they are already 2-1 behind Napoli, who scored a goal in the 7th minute and in the 14th minute Lazio managed to double their position. 2 minutes later they managed to score a goal to reduce the deficit.
I don't see them being able to get points in this match, because on paper Lazio is better than them on any side.

It is very obvious that Salernitana is likely to be relegated because since they were promoted to the serie A in 2021, this has been their worst season as they are rocking the bottom 20 position in the league table and with just about six matches left before the end of the season, it is rather unfortunate for the club because they will go back to the Italian serie B if they are relegated.

Merely watching their match against Lazio you will see that they are so weak in performance and doesn't play like a team that wants to come out of relegation, though Lazio is far better but Salernitana should have put in more efforts even if they can't win but they should try and make some impact if they wish to come out of relegation.

To be honest the performance of Roma during this season when Mourinho left the team and they started working with De Rossi was much better than before. The team is fresher and they are motivated more than before. Roma can now have the chance to win the other games and get the Champions League ticket while they didn't have this chance during the last season with their faus coach Mourinho.
AC MIlanwas not a weak team and they have been having good performance recently. Even though they are in the second place of the table and they had a better performance than Juventus. But in the game against Roma, AC Milan lost the game with a 1-0 result, which shows the good performance of Roma and De Rossi.
Just like the other games Roma had, Dybala was the key player and he made the assist to Gianluca Mancini score the goal for his team.

Roma's good performance is not repeated consistently. Actually, I can't say that Mourinho had a bad Roma career. Everyone expects too much from Mourinho. There is a certain limit to what he can do with the team he has, and I can say that he was successful with this team. They won the UEFA Europa Conference League with Mourinho and this is a great success.

The team's victory against Milan is very valuable because Milan has been playing very well lately. Roma has achieved good harmony with De Rossi and they can show this on the field. They had an advantageous away score in the first match and showed what they could do in the second match. Despite this win, I think Milan has a better chance of passing the round in the second match.

Normally changing of a coach mid season usually has gat its own effect on any team who has got to go through such because at that time the team members may actually get to find it difficult coming with the new coach they are getting and trying to adopt to his coaching styles and tactics may actually be a whole lot for them and may as well take some time especially if the exiting coach has stayed long enough that the player has gotten too used to his style a readjustment wouldn't be easy.

Napoli has gotten such an experience this season and it actually did affected them In a way even if they will fail to accept that it actually did affected them but then they have suffered the effects as even their very key player who usually turns to be the game changer for them  couldn't at some point be able to  cope as it became obvious in his performance but then they have to cope because it's what they have on ground without a second choice, since this Coach had been with then through this season which could actually be seen as considerably long enough, i think he can actually start building in them to get the kind of team that will bring results by next season.

Napoli will actually have to struggle with certain things next season as their key player will be leaving although there have been no fromal announcement to that effect yet but the speculations are really strong and are most definitely going to happen so they will get to probably look for a replacement or better still groom the team to be able to cover up for his absence so they get use to it as the season proceeds.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Lazio played like a team who's about to be crowned champions and I could see Inter Milan in them as they played with so much flexibility and calmness when they're with the ball and I ask myself why are they not giving Inter Milan a tough time this season? If we have to use a particular game to judge teams I'd say Lazio are better than Napoli this season but is like whenever the Lazio side play against a smaller team they just take advantage of the fact that they're the bigger boys but you see tonight's performance, it was outstanding for the Lazio side.

And Spalletti's departure was the end of everything which required the Napoli team to start all over again to work on building this team into a strong team again and that was not easy.

It is true. Spalletti is the reason why Napoli became a strong team in the previous season. When he coached Napoli, even though the players at Napoli were not big players. However, with his expertise in managing and coaching his squad, Napoli not only won Serie A but also gave birth to great, strong and solid players. This is what is special about Spalletti. And this really ended after Spalletti left Napoli to become coach of the Italian national team. It's a shame that after Spalletti left, Napoli were unable to find a coach who suited them, even after changing several times.

For now, I think Napoli will need the next few seasons to be able to return to being one of the top teams competing for the title, and this season there is clearly nothing more to expect from Napoli.

Exactly. If they find again the suitable coach who is able to build Napoli, manage it and train it to become a solid and strong team again, Napoli can definitely become a top club again. However, this is not possible this season. Either for the next season or several seasons into the future. Really, everything depends on the coach, because Napoli itself doesn't have any significant star players, it looks like Osimhen will leave Napoli next season.

[Slow death]

Napoli can no longer be relied on like last season after Spalletti's departure. Even though this could be wrong, the departure of the coach who led them to become champions was felt in Napoli's game. They are not as solid as last season and in their games they are not as good as last season. This season they made a lot of mistakes that we didn't see last season. This season they don't have good consistency and that makes them achieve a lot of negative results in the matches they play.
The news that Osimhen will leave Napoli is news that has been heard for a long time, but it seems that this season it will become a reality.

Since Spalletti's departure, Napoli has had many coaches, it started with Rudi Garcia, then Walter Mazzarri, then Francesco Calzona[/color]. This is something difficult to see in any team. Even in the most demanding leagues and in cases of teams fighting to get out of relegation, I don't see them having 3 different coaches in a season. I keep asking myself why the Napoli management were so desperate this season to the point of hiring 3 coaches? This means that Napoli's management spent a lot of money terminating the contracts of the last two coaches, I'm talking about terminating the contracts with Rudi Garcia and Walter Mazzarri. This is a huge financial loss that could have been avoided and the money could have been used to sign other good players. I wonder:

Was it worth having 3 coaches this season?



Even though they have 3 coaches this season, Napoli is in position number 8 and has little chance of finishing in at least 4th position. So was it the 3 coaches' fault or is Napoli's squad simply not good? The problem of having club directors who have not followed the evolution of their opponents is very serious. Last season Inter and Milan were very unstable, but they already showed signs of improvement in the last league games, that should have served as a signal for Napoli's management to also improve the squad and hire a coach with a good record of achievements in Serie A and coach who would be for the long term, and not someone who would win the title immediately. The greed for the immediate title blinded Napoli's directors who spent a lot of money on hiring coaches

Lazio played like a team who's about to be crowned champions and I could see Inter Milan in them as they played with so much flexibility and calmness when they're with the ball and I ask myself why are they not giving Inter Milan a tough time this season? If we have to use a particular game to judge teams I'd say Lazio are better than Napoli this season but is like whenever the Lazio side play against a smaller team they just take advantage of the fact that they're the bigger boys but you see tonight's performance, it was outstanding for the Lazio side.

Knowing that Lazio's opponent is a team from the relegation zone and that in the last 14 games they haven't won in any game, it honestly doesn't serve to measure Lazio's performance. salernitana conceded 4 goals when they played against inter and they couldn't even score at least 1 goal, they also conceded 6 goals when they played against juventus. They conceded 4 goals when they played against Cagliari. They recently conceded 3 goals when they played against Bologna and didn't score at least 1 goal. before playing against lazio, they played against sassuolo and conceded 2 goals. In my opinion, Salernitana is a team with a weak defense, and an extremely weak team and Lazio simply had the luck to play against an extremely weak team. This doesn't mean that Lazio is strong and that they play well in my opinion

playing against teams like atalanta, bologna, fiorentina, milan, udinese and roma, lazio lose against all the teams I mentioned and those were lazio's last games. something recent. unfortunately lazio is not like last season. It seems like they have the same problems as Napoli. I hope that next season they improve because they are a good team

Even though they have 3 coaches this season, Napoli is in position number 8 and has little chance of finishing in at least 4th position. So was it the 3 coaches' fault or is Napoli's squad simply not good? The problem of having club directors who have not followed the evolution of their opponents is very serious.

Coaches are not main problems that are their players who are good but not at world class level and can not adapt to more research and investigation from opponents to deal with Napoli and their players. We can see it with many players who have only one or two good seasons in their career, then failed to maintain or upgrade it in later years.

Currently many Napoli players are facing with this challenge and they must overcome this by themselves, from training and their own talent as well as adaptation. Coaches are not all and can not help players to solve these issues on player side.

With current position of Napoli, with 10 points less than Bologna that stands at the fourth position, chance for Napoli to finish this season in top four is zero. Even chance for them to complete in top six of Serie A starts to be small with their recent poor performances.

[rendravolt]

It's been a long time since I saw Lazio win with a big score like this and they did it at home when they hosted Salernitana last night. The victory with a landslide score of 4-1 confirmed a positive result for Lazio after previously losing against Roma. Felipe Anderson recorded a brace and don't forget the other two goals were scored by Vicano and Isaksen.

Even though Salernitana managed to get back with a goal they scored through Tchaona, that wasn't enough because Lazio continued to increase their goal difference in the second half. A good result for Lazio and now they have moved up to 7th in the standings by overtaking Napoli, while for Salernitana they have to mourn their fate at the end of the season which allowed them to be relegated. The remaining matches will not be enough to help Salernitana to escape the relegation zone and that is a reality they have to accept.

[Popkon6]

Here was a great game, for their performance was so good that the entire gallery was cheering for them. The game before halftime has created a gap of 3-1 goals. Halftime ends, and Lazio team scored another goal in the second half. And they produced great performances, and the Salernitana team's goalkeeper is not that experienced. Two goals were due to mistakes by the goalkeeper, a ball he could have prevented if he had tried. But the goal was far ahead of the bar due to which Lazio players were able to score.
