OPINION What if Gonzalo Higuain was WRONG to leave Napoli?
Napoli are, after all, doing well without him: they’ve netted 20 times in eight games, 2.5 goals a game.
There's more: Napoli are one of only four Champions League teams (Atletico, Leicester and Barcelona are the others) to have won both their games so far.
Between the league and the UCL, they’ve racked up 20 points in total, with City on 22 and Monaco equalling the Partenopei… having played a game more. Barcelona and Juventus have 19.
The Sky Blues are also one of the few unbeaten teams left in Europe’s leagues, along with Besiktas, Atletico, Real… and Napoli!
What if Gonzalo was the new Christian Vieri, who left Lazio the year before they won the Scudetto, or the new Ibrahimovic, who went to Barcelona in exchange for Samuel Eto’o… the summer before Inter nabbed the Treble?
