well actually giacherini didn't track his man so it's his fault
I had no idea iturbe could play for Italy either thanks for the update

fuck me, i meant Romulo, not iturbe, my mistake

This is good news, hopefully it plays out similar to Juve in Europe. It very well might.

Catenaccio is back

 

[Bartolo]

this is just a suggestion but could this work?

--------------------Buffon--------------------------
----Maggio----Barzagli---Chiellini---DiScigilio----
----Candreva---DeRossi---Pirlo---Cerci-----------
---------------Rossi----Balotelli--------------------

we could sub in:
Cassano* for Rossi*
Immobile for Balotelli
Insigne* for Rossi/Cerci
Motta for DDR or Pirlo
Marchisio for DDR or Pirlo
Montolivo for DDR or Pirlo

*= pending if Prandelli takes him to Brazil
I really hope we take Cassano and rossi

what do you guys think?

 

[satfootball]

dont you think that Italy lacks efficient offensive Medfielders at this time?

 

[MikeM]

Barzagli-Chiellini
Candreva----- Pirlo-------De Sciglio
De Rossi-----Marchisio
Rossi--------------------Cerci
Balotelli​

cerci and candreva are great wing players. and a Rossi-Balo duo could be devastating

i meant type of midfeilders that play in central psitions not as winger.

most of midfeilders are static players.
how about romulo?

what's wrong with pirlo and De Rossi holding the midfield? not to mention they are both excellent passers of the ball

no. they both aren't offensive players.

3-5-2 is ok as long Bonucci stays out of the lineup.

It\s actually the other way round.

Bonehead is always save by Chiellini and Barza and we can't afford that in WC. Its not a walk in the park like our regular Serie A games.

these tournaments are won with great wing play, lately at least. Wing play is the KEY, we had great wings at the 2006 wc, we lost them in 2010... now we have solid ones again. I think our attack, mid and wings are among the elite in the world, uncharacteristic for Italy what worries me is our central defense. If that part of the team is solid we will be very hard to beat.

Because of lack of left wingers Lippi was forced to use Perrotta on the left wing, Italy played with 4231 defensive formation, they had perfect team balance, build-up play and chemistry between players, the key part of that squad was defence, they conceded only 2 goals - 1 was autogoal, 2 was from penalty kick

what do you guys think?

-Maggio is a liability as an RB
-De Sciglio is primarily a RB
-the center-left looks weak defensively
-both flanks look weak defensively
-Cerci doesn't play on the left and had perhaps the best season of his life as an SS, why would you then go and put him as a LM?
-Italy should definitely not play a 4-4-2

Agreed.

No need to argue a blind man can see that.

That team was special... I always love a good defensive Italy... But to have players like pippo and Del on a bench that team had to be special

He is oriundi, like Camoranesi, Osvaldo, Thiago Motta etc.
