Kim Min-jae is delighted after his first month with Napoli.
The South Korea defender has been outstanding since his arrival from Fenerbahce this summer.
Kim said, "I have many shortcomings and I still need to learn and improve: I focused on how to do it and I tried to do exactly what the coach asked me.
"It is difficult to move into a great league and play, but I thought I had to adapt unconditionally. My teammates helped me a lot and they are all very good: I realised that if I couldn't keep up I wouldn't play.
"The most difficult opponent? (Olivier) Giroud: he has great qualities as a centre-forward and physical strength: to mark him you have to be focused and hold the position for 90 minutes."
