I know what you're thinking: "formations don't exist anymore!" That's what everyone says these days, isn't it? We've become so smart about the way we think about football and too evolved from the ways cavemen used to play, that formations are now only for foosball and cheerleading pyramids.

Luciano Spalletti has worked wonders since arriving to the scene of Naples in 2021. The Italian manager helped Napoli to a third-place finish last season, and now prepares to lead the closing stages of their title charge in 2023.

So with that, here is our analysis of the club from Naples so far in 2022-23.
