Napoli captain Lorenzo Insigne called for calm after their 1-1 draw with Champions League opponents RB Salzburg.
Napoli attacker Hirving Lozano had to cancel out an Erling Haaland penalty to rescue a point.
It's a rough period for us at the moment, but we've got to keep our heads up and continue to work," Insigne told Sky Sport Italia.
We realise that we cannot have one good game followed by one below par. We are too inconsistent, but tonight we played well and tried everything possible, but couldn't score. It was a bit like the Atalanta game.
We need to be more determined, keep playing good football and hopefully luck will turn our way eventually. I saw a good response tonight from the squad, including those on the bench and in the stands. The coach ensures we are united and tries not to put too much pressure on us.
We know it's not a good period, but if we all think negative and behave as if the ball doesn't want to go in, it'll spread. The coach is positive and we have to share his attitude."
