FM2007: Napoli Thread - Can you take this Sleeping Giant to the top?
S.S.C. Napoli (SocietÃ* Sportiva Calcio Napoli) is an Italian football club based in Naples, Campania. The club was formed in 1926 and spent most of its history in Serie A, often being the sole representative of the Italian South in the country's top division.
The club had recently undergone a name change to Napoli Soccer in August 2004 under Aurelio De Laurentiis, a famous film producer and nephew of Dino De Laurentiis, after the club had gone bankrupt. On 23 May, 2006, De Laurentiis restored the club's name back to S.S.C. Napoli.
Napoli play in sky blue shirts with white shorts, the club is nicknamed Azzurri (blues, as is the Italian national side) and Partenopei.

At work just now so can't post my team. The only new signing I have as a first team regulars is Lupatelli in goals and Kevin Larsen at left mid. Bucchi is an absolute legend.

Hi guys,
I am in January of 2007. 1st season got a couple of young keepers, brought in a couple of full backs (don't rate Garics technically) a Norwegian and Swede - can;t remember names, got Kevin Larsen (excellent), got a Slovenian (?) called Lublijankic to play with Bucchi (GOD) and Danny Haynes on loan. Also Naismith can be picked up cheap and can play wide or up front. So halfway through I am right in the thick of it. 4th place Juve making a march obviously and it looks like it will go down to the wire between us, juve, genoa, and one other player.
