Lippi archives winning start
Thursday 9 September, 2004

Italy have begun their World Cup campaign with two wins but boss Marcello Lippi insists there is still plenty to do.

"We need to continue working hard on the project which we have just started," said the tactician on Thursday.

"It is our intention to develop into a strong squad and make sure that we qualify for the World Cup.

"Then it will be our objective to go to Germany and achieve something very important in the Finals."

Lippi’s new look side have a 100 per cent record in Group 5 after wins against Norway and Moldova.

"It has been an important month for us and I am very happy because we have started our campaign well," he noted.

"Everyone worked hard and we collected two vital victories, one in spectacular fashion and one on a poor pitch against a very aggressive side."

The tactician seems to have been able to create great enthusiasm and a united team spirit. Could that be affected by the return of some big name players?

"The likes of Totti, Cassano, Cannavaro and the others will return but that won’t be a problem," he insisted.

"It will be easy to fit in these players. Now there is a month before the next match for everyone to improve their form."

Keep it up Lippi !

 

[Len]

Keep it up!

What is Lippi going to do with Totti anyway? I can't imagine that Lippi likes players who spit. I even believe that I Totti should do something like that again he won't be called up by Lippi.

And can Lippi make Totti reach his highest level? It's a known fact Lippi doesn't like Totti very much. But Italy without Totti at his very best won't be a contender for the WC. Unless Godot returns, but I doubt it .

..

imo Italy can win the WC without Totti. he hasn't done anything for italy in the past.

 

[Elnur_E65]

He surely didn't play in the two games Italy won...

[marwan]

yeah lippi trained well the Italian team , but its always like this when a Star Player like (Del Piero,Totti,Vieri...)is injuried the team always lose
and that's what happened yesterday
hopefully they will win on Wensday

Mark my words: Totti will never be the hero the Italy NT needs in international play.

 

[_Emerson]

Yeah, personally i would almost prefer De Rossi instead, damn if only Totti could be as good on the NT as in Roma.

 

[Lilianna]

it's shame italy lost :down::down::down::down:

 

[Gogeta]

I haven't seen a game since being in Leeds and it sucks

 

[Lilianna]

last time i saw an italy NT match,was at the begining of Euro.

 

[Gogeta]

I haven't seen a milan match since either

 

[Lilianna]

i haven't seen a juve match since they lost the coppa from lazio...

TERRIBLE!!
i feel you kel....

 

[Gogeta]

No one around me knows **** all about italian football which drives me crazy too

 

[Lilianna]

well,in my school EVERYONE knows that i support juve,so even the few juventinies there are there,they all come to me to ask me about results,matches ect!! :fero:

italian football isn't popular here either

 

[Gogeta]

And everyone knows I'm milan but I don't get that.

 

[Lilianna]

i mean that because ppl know NOTHING about italian football,
and even the ones who support italian temas,they come to me to get informed!

and its very annoying because i need someone to get informed from too you know!!
