Napoli midfielder Stanislav Lobotka has defended coach Rudi Garcia's season start.
Lobotka says the defending title holders are still getting used to Garcia's methods.
He explained, “Last year nobody expected us to win the Scudetto. Now the pressure is higher. Many teams have strengthened, so it will be difficult to defend it."
On the defeat against Lazio and on Garcia, Lobotka added: “Especially in the second half they were able to read us very well. Lazio are a quality team and are very good on the counterattack.
"We have a new coach this season, it takes time to get used to the new things. We play a little differently than the previous coach. Every coach has his own style. You just have to get used to it."
