Napoli manager Antonio Conte has started the season exactly as he expected it to go when he took the job in the summer, but his most important new player was not Romelu Lukaku, but Scott McTominay, who was surprisingly sold from Manchester United.
After 14 games played, Napoli leads Serie A over Atalanta, who have really stopped giving up points.

In yesterday’s away meeting with Torino, there was only one goal and that goal was signed by Scott McTominay. “We did the right thing by choosing him,” Antonio Conte told DAZN after the game.
And the Napoli team left with another three-pointer and continued the league lead in the Italian league.
The big hero of the meeting was the summer’s new signing Scott McTominay, who scored the only goal of the game, assisted by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. “We did the right thing to bring Scott here because he wasn’t a starter at Manchester United, I already knew him and we worked under the radar to get him here,” Antonio Conte told DAZN after the game.
“Of course, everyone is eager to prove themselves and I’m happy that we did the right thing in choosing McTominay.
Voted best of the match!
The Scot has been a very successful new signing and from his midfield position has scored three goals and two assists in eleven Serie A games for League One.
