Napoli coach Ancelotti happy with rout of Parma

Napoli coach Carlo Ancelotti was delighted with their 3-0 rout of Parma.

Ancelotti changed nine of the starting XI and gave Kevin Malcuit his debut, but still tore Parma apart 3-0.

“We are in good shape and all the players are motivated," he told Sky Sport Italia.

“After the Fiorentina game, we started to defend in a different way. Lorenzo Insigne is decisive for us in his new position as a more central striker and not a winger. Insigne is in tremendous form and I think we need to make the most of that right now."

“Our style of attacking also depends on the way the full-backs change position. Against Torino, we had Simone Verdi and Jose Callejon pushing up, whereas today we had the full-backs providing the width."
