NO TITLE THOUGHTS

The Napoli manager Walter Mazzarri has said that he does not think about winning the title this season and is only concentrating on each game as it comes. Napoli are in with a chance of winning the title this season, as they seem to be the only real contenders alongside Juventus.

They are currently just two points behind leaders Juventus after having played almost 15 matches. Napoli were in a similar kind of position last season, but faltered right at the death. In order to avoid such a similar scenario, the manager Walter Mazzarri has cooled all the talk of a title this season.

He has said that Napoli have only concentrating on every match as it comes. Napoli managed to close the gap on Juventus to just two points following the 1-0 win over Cagliari during the weekend. In the meantime, Juventus of the second defeat of the season – once again to Milan team – against AC Milan. This means that Juventus have had just two victories in the last five matches in all competitions. Napoli have a much better form going into the weekend's match against Pescara because they have been undefeated in the last four matches in all competitions.

"We really deserved this victory and Napoli are going through a fine period. It was a difficult game. We played well in the first half and just lacked something in the final third. The Scudetto? We'll take each day as it comes. Today we saw just how difficult this league is and we will only know where we stand at the very end," said Walter Mazzarri after the Cagliari match. Napoli have not the only team challenging Juventus right now because both Fiorentina and Inter Milan are also close. Both Fiorentina and Inter Milan are just within three points behind Napoli.
