WE are a fucking JOKE.....
Brazil puts an easy 4 past this Egypt team, and we cant even scrounge one....how pathetic !!
Zambro has to go- he cant run, and cant pass the ball any longer...it hurts to watch him. Reminds me of a fighter past his prime, who just goes in and takes a beating
Quag, like I've said a thousand times, doesnt belong on the team
Pirlo looks extremely slow and tired, and proved too many times that he shouldnt be taking the free-kicks
Gattuso didnt play most of the season (and it shows), so why is he even there ??
De Rossi, if you want to help the team, stop blasting the ball from 40 yards out, and cover your fucking man on set-pieces, asshole !!
The 3 ring circus featuring the famous Italian clowns returns to our television sets come sunday, when we face demolition against the worlds pound for pound best- Brazil :frown:
Your posts usually make me laugh as I tend to agree with you a lot of the times.
If this was Ranieri, he would have been lambasted but its the beloved Lippi so the criticism is started with a condition like I love him or i respect him but, lets face it the truth is that he has been making questionable decisions for years.
The last season at Juventus comes to mind, sanity boggling decisions against Deportivo (every game) and Barcelona at home come to mind where he played DP as a lone striker.
Yes he won the world cup and has a resume the envy of all other coaches so its hard to dispute his credentials but he like most great managers is very lucky as in the world cup apart from the fact that the scandal brought all those guys together, playing against ukraine, australia is hardly world class and lets face it they always beat Germany while the final was a lottery that could have gone either way but they are world champs so all thats irrelevant.
I thought the whole point of a friendly was to reward break through performances like Gazza announcing his presence on the world stage in a friendly against former czechslovakia all them years ago before 90 world cup and then making an impact there so why when Pasquale Foggia put in a great display, he is not in this squad?
Surely he is more useful than the totally ordinary Pepe and the jeckyll and hyde that is Camoranesi. Camo is good in the league with Juve but very average in cl and for the NT.
Personally Id take the 35 year old Dp and the 36 year old Inzaghi ahead of all the strikers he keeps picking. I am curious to see how he wants to defeat the top teams with the very ordinary but willing worker Iaquinta as his main striker.
I have not seen too much of A'gostino but I am almost sure he is vastly overrated and I hope we do not get him. I saw Marchisio look so ordinary against Serbia under 21 but I keep reading here that he is a good passer of the ball.
I have only seen Giovinco give 1 excellent performance against Chelsea in all the time I have seen him play but Balotelli is a talent that needs to be nurtured and could be a secret weapon but apart from him and Santon, some of the defenders in the under21 set up Andreolli and Brochetti impressed me but they have no chance of going to the world cup not when Cannavaro, Grosso, Zambrotta, Dossenna, Gatusso, Camoranesi, pepe, Iaquinta, Toni are still breathing.
You know I am amazed that Lippi has never managed Milan but he is a perfect fit and I am sure he would do so in the future.
