is Gigi due to take over the captains armband with Fabio hanging up his boots?

Wasn't that a beautiful goal? :agree:

Italy draws level with a Camo header!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

just saw its 1-0....they just need a draw. Get it done.

I hope Vinny shows out tho...

WTF Lippi?

How can anyone question Lippi? I think he has earned he stripes. Rossi is going to amaze in South Africa... AGAIN.

I like that even better. But using the current roster, who would you start in place of Amauri?

That's just what I was thinking, lol. There isn't one there. Rossi could probably do it decently if needed, but he's just not a winger. Here is what I think: Buffon Santon-Cannavaro-Chiellini-Grosso Pirlo-DeRossi-D'Agostino Rossi-Gilardino-Iaquinta He did the trident in the...

I don't see any natural left wingers on that squad. If they play a 442, who do they put there, Rossi, maybe?

I thought I had read that Amauri was targeting the Ireland match in October to possibly make his debut. I don't think he even has his passport yet.

All good points, for sure. But Pirlo, Gattu and Toni are all Lippi staples. He probably just feels comfortable having them around. I guess he expects that 06 magic. Anyways, I think Gio showed today that he's not quite ready for the show. He's getting there, though.

He's not going to take Giovinco because he didn't play enough first team football. That was Ranieri's fault of course, but I can't really blame Lippi's way of thinking there. I'm sure Giovinco will get the call soon enough. Gattuso was a complete headscratcher though, and I will be...
