Solid story, considering starting a Napoli save when my Arsenal game becomes repetitive. Any chance of posting your tactics and the Serie A table, just wondering if you are playing 3 at the back.
Keep up the good work, will be following!

Table as of 30th November 2011
With Napoli top of the table in November moving into December only by 2 points but with 3 teams unbeaten this makes it more of a challenge for the Naples side. Mr Hutchinson has made this league look easy in his first job in a top league in the world and with his team in the knockout stages of the champions league and are competing against Catania its all going well for Napoli who are still in the run for a first treble and are hoping for a great second half of the season.
