you didn't mention Pellegrini on purpose or you forgot him? :D he's 22 and imo a lot closer to starting 11 than Barella, Mandragora or Zaniolo, strange to leave him out like that
I just forgot to type his name. Point being that in future I'd expect midfield to be a pretty strong area, injuries permitting.

in general this is a very small team, I think only Biraghi, Chiellini, Bonucci and Berna are tall enough to win an aerial lol, the rest are 1.60-1.75m tall

How long until Mancini gets the sack?

Italy have some decent players but they lack a goalscorer and play like shit. Immobile is a NT flop and Belotti increasingly look like a one season wonder.
Should be sacked already but probably won't be until Italy fails to qualify for the next Euros.

Fucken boring to watch international tournaments without Italy. :moan:
