It was a whirlwind summer at Crystal Palace to say the least.

Fresh off the back of their FA Cup triumph, Palace saw their UEFA Europa League dream snatched away by UEFA’s multi-club ownership rules, thus settling for a place in the UEFA Conference League.

Star player Eberechi Eze traded South London for the north of the capital in a £60m switch to Arsenal, while club captain Marc Guehi was all but a Liverpool player on Deadline Day.

Oliver Glasner was publicly vocal about the Eagles‘ summer in which they spent just £47m, without directly addressing the enormous creative hole left by Eze, labelling the club’s approach as ‘passive‘.

One of the bright spots of the window, at least, was the arrival of young central defender Jaydee Canvot.

The 19-year-old Frenchman joined from Ligue 1 side Toulouse with the reputation as one of the country’s best defensive prospects.

Ever since debuting at senior level last September in a 2-0 defeat to Brest, Canvot has caught the eye of scouts at some of Europe’s leading clubs.

In the following Jaydee Canvot scout report and player analysis, we will analyse Jaydee Canvot style of play and defensive characteristics, based on his performances with Toulouse.

Manchester City hosted Napoli for the opening game of both teams’ UEFA Champions League journey.

The match ended with a 2-0 win for the Citizens despite Napoli’s considerable efforts, especially during the first hour of the match.

Antonio Conte had to deal with numerical inferiority due to Giovanni Di Lorenzo‘s red card in the 21st minute of the first half.

This card conditioned the team’s performance during the remaining minutes of the game and obliged him to make the necessary changes to adapt to Manchester City’s strengths and resist their consistent attacking attempts.

In other words, Napoli showed more rivalry and challenged Manchester City better when they were equal in number, but then they had to retreat and defend with a low defensive bloc while relying on counter-attacking opportunities to help them punish Manchester City.

Although Napoli were dangerous during the first part of the match, counterattacking opportunities were not really possible afterwards, and the team had to resist mainly in defence.

On the other hand, Pep Guardiola’s side did not start the match as they wanted.

They encountered a very ambitious and organised team that did not allow them to score early in the game.

But, with recurrent attacks and a team organisation that favoured continuous attacks and possession inside the opponent’s half, they pushed Napoli to commit mistakes and then continued to strive for a goal, which they succeeded in scoring during the second half before adding a second goal to destroy Napoli’s comeback hopes.

In this tactical analysis of the match between Manchester City and Napoli, the focus will be on how Napoli dealt with their numerical inferiority in terms of decision-making, substitutions, and defensive tactics.

The analysis will also focus on Manchester City’s attacking solutions and how they were capable of opening the score and adding a second goal despite Napoli’s tight and compact defending efforts.
