I think i'll skip the match against Brasil. If his starting eleven & formation will be the one from the last training I will cry, terrible..
Bonucci & Chiellini together in a 4man defence, trio in midfield (Aquilani-Montolivo-Marchisio) and Diamanti & Candreva around Balotelli..
WTF is Prandelli doing? Giovinco on the bench and Candreva & Diamanti will start? He's getting Gaga

I'm all in for trying something new, because whatever they've been doing against Japan wasn't working at all. The only problem I see is Aquilani - he offers absolutely nothing to the team, a complete waste of space. I wonder how long will it take for Prandelli to realise that. I'd go with something like this:
If things aren't going well and Italy's defence is getting raped again, Giaccherini for Giovinco.
Buffon
Abate - Bonucci - Chiellini - De Sciglio
De Rossi - Montolivo - Marchisio
Diamanti - Giovinco
Balotelli
Abate - Bonucci - Chiellini - De Sciglio
De Rossi - Montolivo - Marchisio
Diamanti - Giovinco
Balotelli

In my book Maggio is still far superior in attack to both Abate and de Sciglio, who both have energy, but not much more to offer. Defensively I wouldn't trust neither of them, although Maggio might be the worst one 
Chiellini on the left is a decent option, would offer some stability and balance. I'm not sure Giacch has it in him to start 3 games in 6 days at that heat, a half dead Giaccherini sounds pretty useless.
