Conte thinks friendlies are to fuck about with mediocre players


Belgium takes friendlies extremely serious, and fielded 8 starters, with the goalkeeper beeing quite good aswel, and kompany was injured. the 3 subs, where mostly experienced and an excellent talent in de nayer

i was having a laugh when i saw what italy started, and their 6 randomn subs. Its telling this shitty italy actually had the better first half against near full strenght full serious belgium playing at home in front of a full serious crowd

No. No. No. Our team could have lost. Italy definitely had good chances. But we are miles ahead of them. In terms of talent we are in another league. Italy only have a chance of winning anything because they are italy and have winning in their DNA. But don't you think for a second they have the quality we have.

so currently the best italien players are worse than the best belgium players?

If Belgium had Verratti, even with a stupid shitfart coach like Wilmots, they'd still run circles around any european team and win the european cup without ever breaking a sweat.



If Belgium meets italy with their strongest lineup in the euros, Italy will beat us. Regardless of the overwhelming superior talent. Belgium lacks the most vital player. A playmaking general to compensate for a peasant coach.

Italy has a better goalkeeper, better defence.

Italy has better holding midfielders, and a midfield playmaker.

Belgium has by far and away superior attacking midfielders.

Belgium has significantly better forwards as it stands. However, Balotelli has more talent then all the belgian centreforwards combined. The problem is that its balotelli. Berardi is MUCH better then De Bruyne was at his age, but will likely not explode as massively.


Italy has a worlclass coach. Belgium has a motivational speaker pretending to be a coach.

 

[DAiDEViL]

only thing i am not sure about is the worldclass coach.

 

[Zacheryah]

Compared to willmots, my average ejaculation would be a better coach.


Conte knows how to motivate the shit out of a team. Knows how to kill an opponents gameplan. Remember Argentina-Belgium ? 0 chances created. With Hazard, De bruyne, Witsel, Mertens, Benteke, Lukaku etc. Nope, just dislocate the buildup. So easy.

 

[Klin]

Conte world class.

Yes. And a lot worse.

 

[DAiDEViL]

Yes. And a lot worse.

up front - yes.

belgiums defenders and CM's are not better than the italien ones though.

 

[alexjuventino]

While belgium is talented i think they are extremely overrated. France or Germany has got this euro.

Doubtful at best to be fair. Italy are really poor. I think Belgium is better in midfield too and for me it's no contest either. In defense Italy may hold a slight advantage. You're really overrating the azzurri.

Italy CT Antonio Conte has reportedly decided on 14 players for Euro 2016, but Andrea Pirlo, Daniele De Rossi and Lorenzo Insigne are missing.

Il Messaggero has reported today that the former Juventus Coach has chosen 14 'certainties’ who will be part of the squad for next summer’s tournament.

Some established stars are absent from the list, such as Pirlo, De Rossi, Insigne and Riccardo Montolivo, although the newspaper believes that the other nine places are still up for grabs.

The 14 believed to be guaranteed a spot on the plane are:

Goalkeepers: Gianluigi Buffon, Mattia Perin

Defenders: Matteo Darmian, Mattia De Sciglio, Leonardo Bonucci, Andrea Barzagli, Giorgio Chiellini

Midfielders: Alessandro Florenzi, Antonio Candreva, Claudio Marchisio, Marco Verratti, Marco Parolo

Forwards: Eder, Graziano Pellè.

Belgium, France, Germany and Spain are the only contenders imo. With Germany being the clear favourite.

Btw as much as it pains me to say it: Conte really should consider Giovinco.

I really dont see belgium being a contender, i do think they will progress further than italy but i dont see them winning or being in the final. Spain i think is done with their dominance, germany and france have better squads than spain imo.

If you go further than Italy, you stand a good chance of winning any tournament. Belgium are easily among the three most talented sides and imo in terms of raw talent it's between them and Germany. The players have also reached an age when they know what it takes to win. I see us winning this and I think you are underrating us. But I don't really care, I guess the tournament will speak for itself. Anything less than the title and I'm disappointed though.

I think belgium is extremely overrated lol but we shall see

We are much stronger than in 2014. People forget we didn't take Nainggolan, Carrasco or Batshuyai to the World Cup and these guys will make a lot of difference.
