Fagioli is Italy's biggest problem by a country mile. Inane decision to select him.

maybe they weren't as sharp mentally? were they assessed in the nt training camp?
i hate inda with a passion but this is ridiculous. very few people in italy take the responsibility and spalletti looks like just an other one of those who prefer to wash their hands. a bit of a disappointment, especially because throughout his career (especially with both roma and napoli) he looked like an attack minded coach with a clear gameplan, and this team looked nothing like expected
who the fuck told spalletti to switch to a 3 man backline in first place, and why spalletti agreed. i bet it wasn't his idea. the last time he played with a back 3 was probably at udine, like 20 years ago

You know something? Spalletti and Gravina will show up in front of the press tomorrow and announce they'll go forwards together
That's when you know Italy wont qualify for a 3rd straight world cup. I'd even put money on it.
i don't understand why multiple nt coaches kept playing cristante. okay, he's a relatively reliable passer and can get physical enough to win back the ball, but not extremely good in anything, and offers next to nothing in attacks. like a bentancur on sleep pills. at least folorunsho can shoot and is tall so he could be useful if italians had a decent crosser on both sides each
the funny thing in that miserable hindsight involving loca is that most people agreed that he had a very slow 2nd half of the season and didn't deserve to be called. now probably the same people think that leaving loca home was a mistake. it has nothing to do with spalletti
at least loca can feel a tiny bit less shitty about the rejection

It's clear that Italian coaches seem to have their favourites, and more often than most those favourites are shit players.
As for Spalletti, in all seriousness he's not a terrible manager, but he's only good when things are going well, but as soon as he faces trouble, he cannot motivate his players, he is not a problem solver and guide them out of trouble. I know we are all Allegri critics but truth be told I recon Allegri would have done better in this competition.
It'll be a disaster if Gravina and or Spalletti continue.

Also that Euro preparation was a fucking disaster, why go to the USA and play in 2 different time zones to play against south American teams, literally travelling more than actually training. Honestly I don't know why Gravina hasn't been crucified for this stupid decision.

and on the same notion of Gravina seriously there needs a real push to get him the fuck out.
What has he actually done? being in charge of the FIGC when Italy won the Euros is only going to keep you in the job for so long, failure to qualify for the WC is one thing, this euros disaster is another, any investment in the youth? in the women section? no too busy trying to create a witch hunt against Juve.
I tell you what if Gravina survives this latest disaster, I really hope Italy dont qualify for the next world cup.

Such a strange way to "I take full responsibility"...
I take full responsibility... but we shouldn't start pointing fingers, although we are totally off track and our energy sucked
I take full responsibility... but my staff suck
I take full responsibility... but my middle management suck
I take full responsibility... but my predecessor suck
I take full responsibility... but my directors suck
He's not wrong. But I wouldn't start with the rants immediately. Go home and analyze the 'why's'. Why did he pick the players he did? Why did he put on so many destructive players? Why did he change so much without establishing the core idea? Why did he enter the euros without really having a game plan? Etc.
