Azzurri: Lippi recalls Blasi Sunday 2 October, 2005

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marcello Lippi has recalled Daniele Bonera and Manuele Blasi for next week’s World Cup qualifiers against Slovenia and Moldova.

Parma defender Bonera makes his comeback after injury problems, while Blasi could be used as a full-back in the same position he has been adopting at Juventus over the last month.


As expected, Roma duo Antonio Cassano and Christian Panucci will not play a part in these international tests, but Vincenzo Iaquinta is called after the end of his contract dispute with Udinese.


Compared to the recent call-ups, Palermo’s injured defender Andrea Barzagli and Reggina man Giandomenico Mesto are dropped.


Italy will welcome Slovenia to Palermo’s Stadio Barbera on Saturday evening, while Moldova visit Lecce’s Stadio Via del Mare on Wednesday October 12.



Italy squad:


Gk: De Sanctis (Udinese), Peruzzi (Lazio)


D: Bonera (Parma), F Cannavaro (Juventus), Grosso (Palermo), Materazzi (Inter), Nesta (Milan), Zaccardo (Palermo), Zambrotta (Juventus)


M: Barone (Palermo), Blasi (Juventus), Camoranesi (Juventus), De Rossi (Roma), Diana (Sampdoria), Gattuso (Milan), Pirlo (Milan)


F: Del Piero (Juventus), Gilardino (Milan), Iaquinta (Udinese), Toni (Fiorentina), Totti (Roma), Vieri (Milan)

Unless he's playing Blasi at RB, I don't get it...

If I were Lippi, I would only recall Blasi the way Ford recalls pickup trucks.

Blasi can pass the ball as-well....he isn't bad.
He can pass the ball when he's not in the middle of the pitch, however we saw what he could do for us last season in central midfield...need I go on?

    Blasi has been called up only because of the problem with Zaccardo he had been very bad in the games that he played with the Azzurri and Blasi is a great alternative for him ... Blasi will only play as a RB there is no way he is playing in the midfield simply because he hasn't played in that position this season Capello only used him as a RB and he played very well in this position

    I don't agree with Gilardino starting, he has not been playing good, I would put either Iaquinta or Vieri ahead... even DP for that matter.
