If we beat these convincingly then I'm sure we're up there with the elite teams. Napoli are a very very good side so on paper it looks like a really tough game.

we shouldnt focus on this Elite teams discussion, we should just focus on winning the " Next Game" , this should be our focus and only goal.

Its only about winning the next game and not how others will describe our team ( Elite, Super , top ...etc )
 
Saw parts of Roma-Napoli last night, Napoli won but I can't say they were really much better. Koulibaly was defending really well.

Should be a great match, and very open. I think we'll win comfortably because Napoli will attack us and we are even more dangerous on the counter.

Same team for me. Maybe Gundogan or Bernardo for David but it's hard to see him rested for such an important game.

Sane, Jesus & Sterling have never lost a game they started together and I think it continues vs Napoli.
 
Ederson
Walker
Stones
Otamendi
Danilo
Fernandinho
De Bruyne
Silva
Sterling
Sané
Jesus


Bravo
Mangala
Kompany
Yaya Touré
Gundogan
Bernardo
Aguero


3-1 City
 
They have so much pace upfront. We need to be at our best to avoid being caught on the break. I don't expect us to keep a clean sheet, not because our defence isn't good enough, just because they're a very good side. First goal is crucial, if we can get ahead and create a platform, we could tear them apart but if they grab it we could find it very difficult chasing the game against these. Patience and dominating possession early on is the key to this game.

I don't think Napoli have been given the credit they deserve and most pundits/media will expect a comfortable win. We'll be jumped on if we don't win and won't be given enough credit if we do because of it. As good as they are though, if we want to win this competition we have to turn up, step up a gear and show them just how good we can be and come out of both of the Napoli games with positive results.
 
Will be a tough game. Hoping we can get a win so we can get the group won before shaktar so we don't need to send the 1st team there before the derby
 
As good as napoli are I wouldnt fear anyone the form we are in right now and confident we will get a hard earned win

So napoli win it is
 
This will be one of the most fascinating games of the season. Napoli are so good in their build up that they may be able to negate our high pressure. Normally in the Premier League, teams can't handle it and just give us the ball back, but Napoli are a different beast. Will be a great game for the neutral, football purity.
 
Good side napoli, they play on the front foot and attack with pace and purpose. They are similar to liverpool but the full backs look like weak links and that includes the left back we are tracking.
 
For me Ed, Walker, Stones, Otamendi, Delph, Fernandhino, Silva, KDB, Jesus, Aguero, and then either Sane or Sterling.
