Scott McTominay opened the scoring in the opening minute, although Como equalised late in the break. Before Romelu Lukaku converted from the penalty spot and David Neres sealed another.

It’s part of the process of building a team. In the second half we changed tactics and came together well. We improved in all aspects. I am very happy with the way my players responded.”

“I’m not sure if this Napoli deserves to be top of the table. “But it’s a fact,” said the four-time Scudetto winner.

“If three months ago someone said we would be top of the table now, I would have found it hard to believe them. “
