you can clearly see that verratti is not used to play with such sunday league players like we field right now.

several times he needed to point to players that were too stupid to make a run where they should run into for them to receive the ball.

italy do not have anyone who can connect midfield to the attack. no player properly falling back to connect the ball and the runs into the box can not all be supplied through verratti.

parolo does not know his limits. fricking tries to dribble when he could have set up verratti in front of the box

Both Rus and Alex suffer from distorted perception, They only remember the howlers, but not the good things BonBon does.

It's like the toilet paper case.

You take a shit and want to wipe your ass afterwards, but you ran out of toilet paper. What are you gonna do? Prolly scream: "NOT AGAIN!"
Why? Because you only remember the exceptional cases, but not the last 50+ times you took a shit and did NOT run out of toilet paper.

Edit: Funny to see it's exactly vice versa with Immobile.
Only point out the goals, never mind the bullshit performances.

Fucking Christ. Why does it always need to be so difficult? No reason for this. The talent is there to certainly beat Macedonia without a problem, but yet constantly there is this shit play and constant mistakes.

The Azzuri need a whole new generation... this group of players are average at best.
that's what you get when 70% of players are non italians.
When aside Juve-Milan-Sassuolo-Atalant most of the teams has at best 1-2 italians playing.
Napoli 0-2
Roma 0-2
Inter 0-2
Lazio 0-2

and so on.

Italy ffs :lol:

Doing the hard way all the time :lol:
:heart:

They even used to pull off terrible performances like this against shit opposition, even with superstar teams. Nothing will ever change, they're always just doing enough to win.

I still think they'll finish the group in 2nd place at best. It might be a real possibility of Italy not qualifying for the World Cup in 2018.

Honestly, the back of the pitch is sufficient. We have enough midfielders and defensive players. What we lack right now is creativity. When your best #10 attacker is Insigne you know you have a problem.

Honestly though, why not play Giovinco? The guy absolutely skins defenders in the MLS. I understand perhaps not playing him vs. Spain, but against Macedonia? He should definitely play. At the very least, he has shown that he can destroy weak competition. 4-2-4

Insigne----Giovinco-----Belotti----Candreva
-------------------------------------------------
---------Verratti----------De Rossi-----------
------------------------------------------------
De Sciglio---Bonucci--Barzagli-----Darmian

against weak competition...
