Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis broke his silence after the 1-1 draw with Liverpool. “So much for those who say they don’t perform because of contracts.”
The Partenopei kept themselves in the running for the Champions League Round of 16 with a stalemate at Anfield against the reigning trophy holders.
“With Ancelotti and this team, we earned two wins and a draw against the champions Liverpool,” wrote ADL on Twitter.

The Partenopei kept themselves in the running for the Champions League Round of 16 with a stalemate at Anfield against the reigning trophy holders.
“With Ancelotti and this team, we earned two wins and a draw against the champions Liverpool,” wrote ADL on Twitter.
“So much for those who try to do us down and say players don’t perform because of contracts that haven’t been renewed, let this game be the definitive response.
“Well done to the coach and to our players. Now everyone get their heads down and work hard, try to consider every game coming up as if it was against Liverpool.
“We mustn’t talk today about the disciplinary action the club is taking with the players. We’ll resolve these matters ourselves without external pressure or influence.”
Napoli are now without a win in seven competitive matches and the tension had been sky high after the team refused to go into a training ground retreat.
The club announced heavy fines, up to 50 per cent of their salary for October, as punishment, with players receiving the notification this morning.
