santacrocce is much better than the overrated barzagli and gamberini and maybe better than aging cannavaro.
He is indeed better than all those players you listed, at least based on potential. Barzagli never convinced me, Gamberini is solid but nothing special and not good enough for Juve I feel, whereas Canna is :mute: :angel:

Refer to my previous post. Good, but not good enough ;)
He is mediocre. Shouldn't be in the national squad. Even though Italy won the world cup in 2006 this generation is inferior to the 1990s, esp the defence. Just compare Maldini, Cannavaro, Nesta, Costacurta, Ferrara to Barzagli and Gamberini. Only Buffon is great and Chiellini has potential but has to improve.
Lippi thinks he can win the world cup with mediocre players but he won't. Needs to bring Ale back and somehow convince Nesta to return.

maldini had said that italy doesn't produce good defenders any more. he added that the only one that reminds him of himself and canna is criscito...

I don't see Santacroce has being a great like Canna/Maldini were, at least not yet. Even Chiellini has a lot to learn as he still makes a ton of mistakes. I do remember Maldini complimenting Criscito before.

i heard the defence will be like this

Santacroce Legrottaglie Cannavaro Chiellini

dont know how true is it.
no way, Chiellini is the best CB we have so he won't move to LB, anyways, it's going to be like this

Zebina, Santacroce(canna), Chiellini, Grosso (de ceglie)
