We did well to defeat Rennes in the second leg, though Napoli is up next. They have been Juventus’s strongest challengers in Serie A, and they have top players like Koulibaly. But so do we. And they can fear us as much as we can fear them.

Carlo Ancelotti is coming back to England, but with his Napoli side in our Europa League quarter-final.

We’re playing the first leg at home, and this will be a key advantage. They will need an away goal, and thus will be open, and we can exploit their defence. However, our defence, of course, can be weak, and we need to make it count when required.

Ancelotti is beatable, too. We have done so before when he managed Chelsea.

Koulibaly could lose so badly that he sees us as the future and joins next season….

In seriousness though, it is daunting but possible to get the win. And if we do, it’s either Valencia or Villareal in the semis.

The club, on its Youtube account, released some funny quiz competitions between some of the players earlier this week.

The Black Panther apparently is smarter than Petr Cech.

And Mavropamos can speak English after all.

Mesut can school Elneny.

But Kos the boss and Mkhi make a fine quiz match.

This was all pretty comical and kudos to the club’s social media team for doing this.

The players apparently are multi-lingual, and in some ways, we British people are hamstrung in learning languages when we spread English around the world. Yes, it’s handy when travelling, but it also limits learning new perspectives. I credit the players for handling themselves so well in English, which is naturally different from their own mother tongues.
