Sacchi’s McTominay Surprise and Napoli’s Real Danger
Arrigo Sacchi’s finally realized Scott McTominay isn’t just a squad filler. Took him long enough. McTominay’s been putting in the graft, showing he’s more than just a body on the pitch. Sacchi admits he didn’t expect McTominay to be “this good.” Well, maybe he should’ve been paying more attention. McTominay’s been one of the few at United who actually looks like he cares.
But let’s not get carried away. McTominay’s decent, but he’s not the second coming of Roy Keane. He’s got a long way to go before he can be considered top class. Consistency is key, and he needs to keep proving himself week in, week out. No room for complacency.
Now, Sacchi’s warning Napoli about the “real danger” they face. It’s not just McTominay they should be worried about. Napoli needs to wake up and realize they’re not invincible. They’ve been coasting, thinking they’re better than they are. They need to get their heads out of the clouds and start putting in the hard yards.
Napoli’s got talent, no doubt, but talent means nothing without hard work. They need to stop believing their own hype and start showing some grit. If they don’t, they’ll get found out. Simple as that.
Football’s a ruthless game, and if you’re not willing to put in the effort, you’ll get left behind. Sacchi’s right to warn them, but it’s up to Napoli to take it seriously. They need to stop talking and start doing.
In the end, it’s all about who wants it more. McTominay’s shown he’s got the hunger. Now it’s time for Napoli to prove they’ve got it too. Otherwise, they’ll be in for a rude awakening.
