Matri and Quag were better options than Bprini. Italy are wafer thin upfront. Cassano and Balo hardly mix, DiNatale needs to start and play out the 90.

He means you throwing Azzurri under the bus.

But the Azzurri is not my team so it doesn't matter.

I know but he's saying he's not throwing Azzurri under the bus because that's his team.

Are we clear?

Hahahahahah

man oh man if they did that over here

di natale should start ahead of cassano next game. And im sorry but i dont believe montolivo is national team quality. I cant stress enough that pepe, matri and quag could have been useful in this italy team

We already saw that provincial effort at the world cup.
It may not work but CP is trying to remake Italy into a team that plays with style. Unfortunately, without some quality AMs, we're fkd either way.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

of course pepe would be more useful than gio, montolivo shouldnt play but de rossi not being able to play in the mid doesnt help.

Gio should have been kept, but Pepe added instead of Giacc.

What has Gio done that shows he deserved a to be here ? Nothing would be the correct answer. Pepe should have been here

 

[Klin]

Prandelli hasn't got a true goal scorer in his squad who can finish some of the chances they had. That's his biggest mistake. Di Natale is the only close to that.

By that logic Pepe hasnt shown anything to show he deserves to be there either, because he hasnt played in the Euro. What have Balotelli or Cassano shown, no assits, no goals? Gio played a total of 20-30 minutes at the end of games when Italy did nothing.

You show that you should be there based on your season, and Gio has more than shown he should be there, as has Pepe. They are not mutually exclusive.

Gio should start he gives Italy some needed pace upfront and can be alot more unpredictable than Cassano who has shown nothing so far... i like Cassano but he is in bad form despite some nice touched but they arent enough.

I think they shold both play in a 4-3-3, with Di Natale in the middle. Balo has been crap.

 

[deggen10]

Spain and Germany - 4/5 attacking mids + 1 CF
Italy- static holding mids and average SS's.

The future isn't looking good.

 

[Stevie]

Yeah id go for that.. Gio seemed to be playing on the right today i would say he would look a lot better in his natural position. Id play Chiellini at LB too and play a flat 4 at the back then attack us with everything but i dont think Prandelli will get it right and i think we (Ireland) will get a result

 

[Suns]

Italy will go through. They will beat Ireland and Spain won't get beaten by Croatia because if they lose they'll be out. They still have something to play for.

 

[king Ale]

Those were the days when the coach had to bench the likes of Del Piero and Inzaghi for Totti and Vieri.

And they were still losing to Croatia.

Quag sucks...

Yeah. A draw.

yup, pepe should have been first choice ahead of gio and giac IMO
