Among the possible protagonists of the championship challenge, the Portuguese is the one who can leave the most marked mark on the match: his scarce propensity to sacrifice is a thought for Pioli, but the player has superior means.
Napoli-Milan is upon us and we are all here to ask ourselves who will be the decisive player. The suspects, of course, are many. Because, starting from Spalletti’s team, how do you choose between Insigne and Osimhen, or between Fabian and Zielinski? Not to mention Elmas, Politano… Napoli is a concentrate of quality, perhaps the highest of all, and dangers can come from any area of the pitch and at any time. Milan has different characteristics, with the bursting vitality of Theo Hernandez – an added striker – the strength of Tornali and Kessie, the geometries of Bennacer, the blows of Diaz or Messias. But, among many possible protagonists, there is one who – more than all – can give a turning point, an imprint on the match. In the positive or, as the last skeptics say, in the negative.
