Their defence and midfield looks extremely shoddy.

Still not underestimating these cunts. But yeah if we get the first goal, I'm confident we should take the three points.

That Roma front three can cause us trouble, even if it's static.

 

[Azzurri7]

Buffon
Zambrotta - Nesta - Cannavaro - Maldini
Pirlo - De Rossi
Totti - Del Piero - Baggio
Vieri

woaha

Italy's 90's

 

[Juventino[RUS]]

Italy's 90's

actually it's a mix of 90s e 00s

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

And it shits on anything Spain produce right now.

I know but it all started in the 90's.

 

[Bezzy]

no elia

can't believe it

Krasic was so horrible

 

[Juventino[RUS]]

Baggio

Minimum.

Italy were really unlucky not to win the WC 98 Euro's 2000 and 02. No squad was as good as the Azzurri 1. Specially the 2000 and 02 one.


Buffon, Nesta, Cannavaro, Zambrotta, Maldini, Di Livio, Conte Totti, Del Piero, Baggio, Vieri, Inzaghi, Montella.

In fact the current Azzurri squad has the least ever number of stars. It has always been a star-studded NT, but now there's only Buffon really.

Indeed.

There's no real stars in the team and this NT lacks charisma and personality.

It's different when you have Maldini, Del Piero and Totti on the field, you're forced to watch them play. Now all I see is bunch of Balotelli's, Cassano and Ranocchia.

I don't remember the last time I watched Azzurri play.

true fan

They dont make em like they did in the 90s and early 00's.'

TBH I find that there isnt as many big stars these days like there was in earlier times anyway.

 

[Elvin]

It's cliche to say that but back then it seemed like every team has at least one super-star because of whom you'd watch them. Figo of Portugal, Zidane of France, Beckham of England, Bergkamp of Holland, Rivaldo of Brazil, Raul of Spain etc. Now there aren't players for whom solely I'd watch their game.

Definitely not.

Also the partner-ships that we used to see back then isn't the same anymore. Right now I don't see the Del Piero-Trezeguet, the Ronaldo-Vieri, Raul-Morientes, Totti-Montella, Kluivert-Rivaldo, Bergkamp-Henry, Yoke-Cole etc... Almost each big team had deadly duo's or lethal partnership that I/we used to enjoy.

That's a tactical issue, not to do with the standards of football.

The standards have also dropped. At least defensively.

yep
look at la liga or CL

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

correct. I also feel the standard of goalkeepers has been cack as well. Neuer best in the world now? Really? He doesn't come close to Buffon, Schmeichel and even Cech (in his younger years)

That also.

Kahn, Buffon, Toldo, Taffarel, Barthez(He wasn't that great but better than many Gk's now), Schmeichel, Pagliuca, Canizares, VDS, Chilavert etc.. I know I'm forgetting many more but seriously, there were keepers back then. Now apart from 3 or 4, Bah.
