Only Bayern Munich are better than Napoli- Moreno Ferrario
Former Napoli defender, Moreno Ferrario, is confident that his former employers can advance to the next round and believes that only Bayern Munich are superior to them.
Napoli will host Villarreal in a crucial UEFA Champions League encounter at the Stadio San Paolo on Tuesday, September 27th, 2011. The Azzurri showed great determination to play a 1-1 draw in their opening Champions
League game against Manchester City a fortnight ago. Bayern Munich currently lead the Group A after a 2-0 win over Villarreal.
Ferrario believes that each and every point is crucial in this group and if Walter Mazzarri’s men manage to beat Villarreal, it will take them a long way in context of the final group standings. The former A.S http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 star insists
that former German Champions, Bayern Munich, are superior to all other teams in the group mainly due to their experience of playing in the competition.
The 52-year-old went onto praise Juan http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Garrido’s side and believes that they and Manchester City are equally matched and have the potential of becoming a great team.
While talking to goal.com, Ferrario said, "Bayern Munich are the only team who have something extra over Napoli, particularly when it comes to experience. Villarreal are a very good team. They're at the same level as City, who
have the potential to become a great side. The game against Villarreal could be decisive, and winning would be a great result. It would also help to ease the pressure a bit."
The former Siena star also praised the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 team and believes that they have the credentials to win the Scudetto this season. However, he fears that Champions League commitments could hinder their league season.
"Napoli have all the qualities to win the Scudetto. Their only problem is the Champions League, which costs a lot of energy."
The Partenopei side are currently placed 4th on the league table and are only one point adrift of league leaders, Juventus. Napoli had a blistering start to their league campaign and won their opening two games but a
defeat to Chievo Verona and a draw against Fiorentina in their recent games have halted their charge.
