I don't care what formation they play in today, they can play in a 9-0-1 for all I care, AND who is on the filed, they need to find a way to get this done tonight, failure is no option! Even if Ventura has to jump on the field and make a tackle, JUST GET IT DONE!
Both statements aren't mutually exclusive - Italy went out because they are shit and yet it will be a bland, less interesting cup without them, NED or even USA.

True, in the last 5 years, Italian coaches have won the English, German, French and Italian leagues as well as the Champions League, yet the knobheads at the FIGC chose someone who only has a Serie C title to his name.

Agreed. I can't stand the Netherlands and the USA (when it comes to football, as countries they're just fine), but the World Cup is surely less interesting without them.
Tbh I think could only embarrass themselves if they'd qualify. But that doesn't mean it doesn't suck if they don't. Italy are one of the historically most important teams. They should always be there.

Squad wise, is this team really worse than Iceland, Switzerland, Poland, Serbia, England? Because those teams had no problem getting to Russia. The problem lies with Ventura and Tavecchio.

Can't hold it against him, I'd rather he play for Nigeria but his relationship with his father's side is pretty sour. Besides if he identifies as english that's on him.
