Rafa Benitez was pleased with the Napoli performance in Cesena and discussed introducing Manolo Gabbiadini.

The Partenopei are now joint third with Lazio after a 4-1 demolition job at the Stadio Manuzzi.

“Today we saw a team that did what it needed to do, controlled the game, scored goals and defended well against a hard-working Cesena side,” Benitez told Sky Sport Italia.

“Hamsik and Higuain are fundamental for us and always have been, aside from their goals. In midfield David Lopez and Gargano have a bit more pace compared to Inler and Jorginho.”

Napoli have signed Gabbiadini from Sampdoria for €13m, but he was suspended and therefore could not make his debut yet.

“We know his quality and he is a new alternative for us. We don’t have many left-footed players and he can also be very dangerous on set plays. He can play in four different roles.”
