Napoli coach Rudi Garcia said he could be ditching the 4-3-3 formation to make up for the absence of star striker Victor Osimhen.
Garcia noted that the team has carry on well without Osimhen who is currently in Nigeria recovering from his injury and attending to family issues. Napoli beat Salernitana 2-0 Saturday to climb back into the top four this season.
“Osimhen is a problem and yet we cannot wait for him to come back soon!” said Garcia.
“I had this reflection too, we have a lot of attacking options, but when we change the tactical system like we did against Milan with a box player like Cholito, then Raspadori as a trequartista, we have that bond between the lines.
“I realise the midfield is helped by Raspadori, who even in the final minutes tracked back like a madman to help out. Someone who cares that much about the team is a valuable presence.”
“It depends on the moment, on the squad I have at my disposal at that moment, on the opponent and the competition. Obviously, the players know the 4-3-3 off by heart, but the problem is that our opponents know it well too, so we need other weapons in our armoury.”
