Allegri and the obstacle course for Napoli

Allegri frustrated after Roma draw and red card; Napoli struggle with injuries and inconsistency ahead of three away fixtures.

Massimiliano Allegri was sent off in the 90th minute during Napoli's match against Roma, expressing his frustration afterwards. "I'm happy with the performance, but angry about the rest," he said. "After twenty-five years, tonight I'm not clear-headed." Regarding the red card, Allegri suggested he would stay on the bench next time, noting he was dismissed for standing up after remaining silent.

Napoli are navigating a difficult period marked by inconsistent results and tactical imbalance, despite some positive signs in recent matches. The injury list continues to grow: Badiashile suffered a new problem just as he was improving, while Rrahmani is recovering from illness and Di Lorenzo is not at his best. The club faces a gruelling run of three consecutive away matches—at Monza on Wednesday, Juventus on Sunday, and Porto on November 4th in the Champions League.

Allegri gave the squad a rest day after the Roma fixture, their first break in some time. Napoli have not won away from home in 67 days, with their last victory coming at Genoa.
