just coming from watching italy-spain and only wanted to state the obvious.

Chiellini is a machine! what a cb we got there. its incredible how he played on this international stage.

 

[CAPITANO]

he owned Torres, was the best italian player

 

[rvi]

indeed

He had a really good game today...

 

[johnny20]

Chiellini proved today that he`s a world-class defender.

 

[ZAF3000]

Italy's most impressive player tonight. In fact, he is, for me at least, MOM .

 

[The Curr]

He was Italy's best player today. Great defender.

 

[sallyinzaghi]

Giorgio was great tonight.

 

[Il Re]

the one positive from this game was chiellini, my oh my wot a soldier this guy is, pace, strength, anticipation, great performance from him, he is cannavaro's heir, he takes defending back old school style

 

[Ahmed]

brilliant performance from Chi...

 

[swag]

He was Italy's best player today. Great defender.

Hands down, Chiellini was stellar on the big stage. In a position he generally is not supposed to be at his strongest. With play like that, he's clearly the defensive heir to Canna.

If Chiellini isn't starting for Italy for the next decade there is something far wrong.

 

[Paolo Sosa]

he is growing up to be the best CB in the world

 

[Mark]

re-sign him dammit, re-sign that mofo till 2020.

 

[rvi]

damn straight ^

 

[DelpieroForLife]

He is one hell of a CB, moving him back to LB would be pure madness.

 

[Geof]

After his carreer, he'll definitely be a football commentator. This guy feels the urge to comment with a big smile after every damn action he's implicated in. Torres must've hated him during this match.

Chiellini 8.5: An absolute rock at the back. Owned both Torres and Villa, and made two brilliant last-gasp interventions. The most positive thing to come out of this tournament for Italy is that they have found a warrior of a centre back.

Damned, I never realized until now, that I have missed players ratings so much since the season ended

He is having great performance, controlling his temper, not making errors or stupid tackles and all. I was one of those who wanted him to play in the sides, I am still not 100% sure about the CB role, thou he keeps on progressing day after day in the center.

He did great, but we should also not ignore that his team was defending with 10 men behind, and that makes his job much easier. I just want to see him perform in CL against the great clubs, then I will be fully convinced if he is the "next Cannavaro" or not. So far it's all great!
