Pelle is decent, definitely better than the likes of Immobile.
With Insigne, Berardi, and Rossi fit, the front line won't be that bad.
Rossi seems fit right now, if he can stay fit for any prolonged period of time, he'll be the best option up front.
It's also going to be interesting following Bernardeschi's development. He has looked good so far for Fiorentina the times I watched him this season. Promising player.

Berardi isnt a pure winger, he'll go wide when he has to, but has a tendency to support the center when its needed

We need to be honest here
That goalkeeper, defence and midfield are as solid and talented as any. What nation in europe has a clearly stronger midfield and defence ?
Up front ?
El sharaawy, Insigne, Berardi, Candreva and Rossi as wingers or support strikers
Balotelli, Eder, Pelle as central forwards ?
Plenty of options for any type of formation.
Lets be honest, they can form various lethal frontlines

Goalkeepers: (3) Buffon, Sirigu, Perin
Defenders: (7) Bonucci, Chiellini, Barzagli, Astori, De Sciglio, Darmian, Florenzi
Midfielders: (6) Marchisio, De Rossi, Pirlo, Verratti, Soriano, Bertolacci
Attackers: (7) Pellè, Rossi, Insigne, Éder, Berardi, Zaza, Candreva
There are actually a lot of attacking options to choose from, I omitted Balotelli, El Shaarawy, Gabbiadini, Giovinco, Quagliarella, Vázquez, Saponara, plus really outside options like Okaka, Cerci, Destro, Immobile, Matri, Sansone, Paloschi.

At last Conte played his 4-2-4 who knows since when.
It looks promising cause the opponents are not really accustomed to play against such system.
Having Insigne instead of El Shaarawy, Berardi to challenge for a spot with Eder and Candreva and Marchisio to play next to Verratti (but tbh Parolo is a great and complete mid).
Well, this team can do it. Germany, Spain and France are not so much better/ Don't even talk about the others.
In Conte we trust.

Taking away the 3 GK position from the team of 23 for the Euro's I can think of only these names are confirmed so far.
Defense : De Sciglio, Darmian, Chielini, Bonucci and Barzagli
Midfield : Veratti ,De Rossi , Marchisio, Candreva
Attack : Pelle
Though I hate De Sciglio, I find there is no better option for a LB and secondly he is versatile whereby he can cover as RB in case of emergency as well, thus freeing some space for other position. On Florenzi, he has interesting attacking attributes but defensively he is horrible , he shouldn't be allowed to be in the defense. He should be a candidate for a spot in midfield.
Lastly, I hope the defense is focus, we have big names in the defense but as we witness in a few major tournaments, our defense has been sleeping at crucial times, a lapse of focus which I do hope it doesn't happen again especially with someone like Conte who keeps players up on their toes all the time.
Any other names for outfield that you guys think should be included as decided already apart from the 10 i mentioned?

Barring injury, he's definitely taking Pirlo in midfield. You can also bet that he'll take two out of the three of Bertolacci, Parolo and Soriano. So probably the midfield will be: Verratti, Marchisio, De Rossi, Pirlo, Soriano, Bertolacci/Parolo.
Upfront, in the wide areas guys like Candreva, Insigne and Berardi will all go. El Sharaawy has a good chance to if he stays injury free.

I still not convinced he will bring Insigne and Berardi with him. Conte haven't really seem them playing, and on El Sha, he no longer is the same player on his debut season with Milan. And don't forget Conte got a special spot for Montolivio, so its not pretty straigh forward with the rest of the choices. And bring Pirlo and Giovinco, currently playing in MLS , Conte will take a huge risk on that as we know the media are already harping on it and if the tournament goes wrong they gonna shred him with those two choices.
