Wenger - We must beware Napoli breaks

Arsène Wenger has warned his Arsenal players
to beware Napoli's strength on the counter-
attack when the sides meet at Emirates
Stadium on Tuesday.
Both sides began their Champions League
campaigns with a victory in Group F and produced an
entertaining 2-2 draw when they met at the Emirates
Cup in August.
We know from the Emirates Cup that they
are a good side but we know as well that
when you want to qualify then home games
are vital
Arsène Wenger
Wenger says he learnt lessons from that meeting and
is pinpointing Lorenzo Insigne as a key element of
the Italian side's ability to quickly turn defence into
attack.
"He [Insigne] is mobile, he is not tall but quick and
very good in the transition from defence to attack,"
the manager told Arsenal Player. "He is a good
dribbler as well and is an intelligent mover. That
makes him an interesting prospect.
"That's what struck me as well in the Emirates Cup -
when they win the ball they come out very quickly
with Callejon, Hamsik, Insigne and Higuain, [who]
come out like bombs all the time they win the ball.
The transition from our side from offence to defence
will have to be very quick."
Victory for Arsenal on Tuesday would represent a big
step towards qualifying for the tournament's
knockout stage. Napoli beat Dortmund in their
opening game and Wenger is well aware of the
quality last season's Serie A runners-up possess.
"They had a surprising result for many people
because Dortmund reached the final last year in a
very emphatic way," he said. "To beat them certainly
is something special and that will lift their
confidence. We know from the Emirates Cup that
they are a good side but we know as well that when
you want to qualify then home games are vital.
"We have started very well but you know if you win
the second game at home you have a good chance to
qualify. But I wouldn't say it's already a decisive
game.
"It's a game that will have a great weight on the end
result of the qualifying teams. Let's deal well with
that situation then we will be in a very positive mood
to finish the job."
