All this talk about people wanting Del Piero with the NT will just make Donadoni even more of a prick.
I thought the exact same thing, but the thing with Del Piero's situation is that he never really complained, he stayed serene and just played his football without any unnecessary moves or speculations. Smth tells me Donadoni will pick him.

He's being himself. Just like what Ranieri said, he never reply by words, but on the pitch.

And that is why he's considered The Elite Class of Classiness ..

Reports: Alex gets Don call
Tuesday 15 April, 2008

There are reports in the peninsula that Roberto Donadoni has told Alessandro Del Piero that he will be chosen for the Azzurri’s Euro 2008 squad.

Despite his superb form in this campaign, Del Piero wasn’t selected for Italy’s friendlies against Portugal or Spain and is facing the possibility of missing out on the summer’s adventure in Austria and Switzerland.

But the nation’s Press have supported Alex’s cause in recent weeks and have implored Don to name the Juventus captain in his squad next month and it sees that the campaign may have succeeded.

According to Il Giornale, Donadoni phoned Del Piero after his heroics against Milan last Saturday to reassure him that he will be playing at Euro 2008.

It has been suggested that Don told Pinturricchio he hadn’t selected him for the pre-tournament friendlies because he doesn’t need to be shown what the 33-year-old can do.

Del Piero has hit the net 14 times so far during this campaign and has played an inspirational role in Juve’s overachievement.

Such a lame typical excuse .. if so Mr. Donadoni, why didn't you leave him in doubt all this time? I hope DP makes you eat your words .. and win you the EUROs single handedly, from a winner FK in the final where Pirlo pussies out of pressure .. in the dying minutes :p .. and that free kick is a foul committed on him ..

I had a dream last night that Alex was called for a friendly against England which ended in a 3-0 win, but once again he failed to score. Meanwhile, Totti did.

:/

I had a dream once that Italy and Portugal play in the Euro2008 final, it's 90th minute, Carvalho fouls Del Piero in the penalty box, Alex converts it and Campioni d'Europa baby :weee:

I have a feeling that If he'll be called up to Euro's and If he was set to start, he'll give it like no other time.
