In this match it was very clear that Lukaku absence from the squad meant they couldn't win easily. The absence of a figure who could break the deadlock would make their coming weeks in Serie A difficult. Fortunately after Cagliari put up a fierce fight, they finally conceded in the final seconds. Conte must start thinking about finding Lukaku replacement in the front line as soon as possible, considering the transfer window is closing soon.
We saw the weakness of Napoli's attack in the previous season. The team became champions. But they couldn't score much. Since the team will also play in the Champions League this season, they should have bought another experienced striker. Or kept Osimhen in the squad. But they didn't do it. And Lukaku is injured. Scoring against a strong defense is now a big challenge for Napoli. Especially in the Champions League matches, scoring will become even more difficult for them. I would like to consider this as a stupidity of the management. Although the midfield is strong by adding De Bruyne to the squad, they have not taken any necessary steps to strengthen the forward lineup.
