Cassano certainly is an undisciplined little kid whose italian by the way is even worse than Totti's, which should provide the public with some colourful linguistic blunders in the interviews he'll give in the years to come.
However we have an expression to define players like him in Italy: they are "genio e sregolatezza", i.e. "genius and indiscipline" if you like. Their talent is directly proportional to their capriciousness. This label has applied to some of the greatest players in the history of the game : George Best, Garrincha and Maradona, or even Juventus' John Charles.
Cassano's talent is out of question, and I will always remember his serie A debut against Inter at the age of 17, where, just minutes after entering as a sub he lobbed one Inter player with an aerial back-heel and dribbled two defenders before placing the ball between the stupefied Pagliuca's legs. Sheer class that was. The fact that he is born the day after italy's 1982 triumph in the spanish Mundial also seems to endow him with some sort of predestination.
Like it or not, my dear juventini, Miccoli comes nowhere near Casso, and I think that even Trap can see that as he will most probably save him a seat on the plane to Portugal.
