Locatelli - Jorginho - Barella

Do you keep this midfield trio once the Koala Midget is fit, or does one of them get dropped?

Locatelli - Verratti - Barella

Yes? No? Maybe?

Serious question?

Verratti certainly plays if fitness is right. Barella too

I guess the final place is between Locatelli and Jorginho. I wonder if Mancini might pick the more experienced man for the tournament

Locatelli-Jorgino-Barella has worked incredibly well so far. Is it worth tinkering with something that is working?

Then again, when Verratti is fit he's on a completely different level to Jorginho and Locatelli. His passing, dribbling and tacking is up there with the best in the world.

It will be a very difficult decision for Mancini.

Jorginho plays 100%, same as Barella. Verratti and Locatelli share a position. Normally Verratti is the starter, of course Locatelli's form calls it into question now. If Verratti is fit enough I still guess he will play for 60 minutes or so with Locatelli coming on, or viceversa.

I could see Mancini do something like this.

Barella Jorginho Locatelli
Berardi Verratti
Immobile

More likely is that he'll just rotate the three, with Barella most likely to play more minutes. It's not like you have a fixed XI for every game playing 90 minutes.

No point in fixing something that isn't broken and trying to fit everyone in like England did in 2002 onward.

Jorginho is not getting dropped. If Verratti gets fit Locatelli will make way.

I wouldn't drop any of them tbh. Rotate maybe. But not drop. We looking good.

News on Chiellini?

News on Chiellini?

Chiellini will miss the Wales match but optimism about his condition filters through. Giorgio is struggling with a muscle problem in his left leg but he will certainly miss the last group game. [@SkySport]

Let me guess, his calf?

Good if he's available after the group.

No need to play him against Wales anyway

I don't know, I might move Kimmich more towards the middle..
