Napoli coach Allegri stated after his team's 1-2 home defeat to Como that the team's defensive performance was "too soft," and also revealed that McTominay is troubled by a foot blister, which has affected his training and matches.

Allegri told DAZN after the match: "Sometimes we play too soft, but on the other hand, we also created plenty of chances. We need to learn to judge when to press forward with possession and when not to. Technically, we made many passing mistakes."

"The most crucial issue is that we were too soft when conceding goals, especially the second one. You cannot give your opponent two chances to score within 20 seconds."

Regarding the team's injury situation, Allegri revealed that De Bruyne's condition is improving, but McTominay remains affected by the foot blister: "De Bruyne's condition is improving. One thing we must work on with all our strength is focusing better in defence. Before the end of the first half, when the opponent gets a corner or a shot, we must ensure we go into the break at 1-1. McTominay is troubled by a foot blister, so his training volume is limited. We hope he returns to his best form as soon as possible. Lang played well. Neres hasn't played for 8 months. It's not easy to return at this stage of the season."

Regarding the tough upcoming matches against Inter Milan and Arsenal, Allegri emphasized: "Inter Milan and Arsenal will not determine Napoli's entire season. We played too soft today, and this is a problem we must solve."
