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.

:LOL:

Class.

Blasi is called up as a midfielder.
Here is the list:

I would like to.

Blasi? Palombo from Sampdoria is a far better option...and he can actually pass the ball.

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?

Patrick is a relatively amazing upgrade from Blasi. Im so happy we have him.

Especially as RB,and TBH I didn't notice how fast he is until his new flank role.I'm glad that we have him in the team.

---------Gilardino - Toni
-----------------Totti--------
-------Gattuso - Pirlo - Camo
Zambro - Canna - Nesta - Blasi
--------------De Sanctis-----------

Shouldn't be a problem against Slovenia.

 

[Tifoso_old]

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

 

[djleli]

true and btw i hope del piero plays gilardino sucks atm

 

[Tifoso_old]

Gattuso and Del Piero just can't stop playing with ech athor's hair

I'm very glad that Blasi is solid as RB.I'm pretty much surprised,TBH i never expected that.
Bravo for Blasi!

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.

Blasi wants to play as a midfielder with the NT

This guy is becoming picky :LOL:
