Capello told TMW: "Everything has already been said.

"A player with great qualities but a bit lazy. Laziness must be fought by making him understand that he can be a great player but if he continues like this he will remain a great unfinished player."

On the title race, he also said: "We can't write off Inter, but Napoli will be a tough opponent to beat. An excellent coach with excellent players who have rediscovered their desire."
