Capello excited by Napoli style: Spalletti has improved on Klopp's gegenpressing

Former AC Milan coach Fabio Capello admits he's a big fan of Luciano Spalletti's Napoli.

Napoli lead the Serie A table and are also into the Champions League round of 16.

Capello enthused: "This team is something completely different from what we have seen so far.

"We were used to Atalanta who did well against European teams, but this Napoli is more technical, it makes people have fun, they want to go quickly towards the goal and in this they remind me of Liverpool.

"And it must be said that there was a great work of the coach. If (Jurgen) Klopp has worked on gegenpressing, Luciano has worked on a different pressing, but then he goes on depth."
