you guys have no faith. 
. he is the right person for the job. what is he gonna do? he has choosen the right guys, IMO. that have the most match fitness. (expect del piero and maybe maresca but nobody gives maresca a chance). italy looked pretty bad last match and donadoni changed it up. instead of having cassano play behind gilla he moved him along side of gilla. that didnt work. so he brings on di michele and plays a 4-3-3. that worked okay, then he brang on inzaghi for cassano, and nothing really seemed to click that well. what do you want the guy to do. i can see maybe if he kept the whole formation the same. but he didnt he try different things. lippi didnt have the most impressive start as coach for italy, so give him a break.

I wish Del Piero were called up...being in such great form and all. On the other hand, can't really blame Donadoni for not picking him, as much as I love him, he's getting older, and the young guys have to step up.
Donadoni deserves a few more chances, despite the recent nowhere-near-successes. Poor guy. :frown:

who cares about italy, from now on i wish they lose every single game, its not donadoni's fault(maybe it is) but still... they got some good players, even if del piero, totti and toni didnt play, so what no big deal. As for totti.. that nigga didnt do shit at the world cup neather with his own club. That guy is just overrated, hes only known for his big mouth and that's it, totti is a fuckin LOSER! and i dont understand y donadoni wants to call him so bad?? what the fuck?? why???? why is he so important for italy, italy won world cup without totti, and the only thing that would be good for him is to retire from football cuz he dont deserve to play att all.
I fail to comprehend why young coaches such as the likes of Donadoni, Klinsmann and Van Basten constantly see the need to rebuild teams to define their own eras, chopping and changing with the pre-existing structure and almost always doing away with experience in favour of a younger generation. Sure, we had problems with fitness and all, but the selection process wasn't faultless.
Still, no need to hit the panic button just yet. After a world cup triumph we would've needed a kick up the backside to get going anyway.

Donadoni is the most clueless manager ever.
But the real reason for Italy's terrible form is because they lost the Juve spirit.
1. Cannavaro was a happy man, then lost his only 2 championships and thrown to a foreign team with no joy.
2. Buffon still didn't grasp what he pledged to do for the next 2 years not playing in Europe , that's a huge trauma.
3. Zambrotta lost all interest of football after the WC + scandal.
4. Camoranesi is not even in the squad after the terrible incidents in his POV.
5. Del Piero, the spirit and the mascot, is not even in the plans.
That's the Juve spirit that was lost, everyone was bummed out, with the main pivot of the spirit :
6. Lippi, a true Juventino and a winner. Gone.
So what can you expect - add to it non Juve issues :
7. Clueless new manager with no record.
8. Totti gone, replaced as NUMBER 10 by someone who Lippi didn't even consider for 18 months and for good reason.
9. Best Italian striker not even in the squad - Luca Toni.
10. Someone like Semioli actually starts instead of Marchionni and Maresca is still not convoked.....
And you have 10 reasons right there. Then again, the season didn't start so everyone not in shape, especially someone like Barzagli who Donadoni convoked just because he was in the WC but of no current merit - hence, clueless.
