As Napoli host Torino this weekend, four points behind Juventus with three games remaining and the euphoria of their last-gasp win at the home of the champions a fortnight ago worn off, one wonders what thoughts will be playing across the mind of Kalidou Koulibaly. A heaving, jiving Naples, drunk on hope and triumph, was brought back down to earth very quickly last weekend.
