The Azzurrini (U21-20-19...) Thread (32 Viewers)

Azzurrini fucking bossing shit at the moment.

This looks like the most promising batch of youngsters Italy has had since about 2004. Also Ferrara seems to be a lot more like Gentile than Casiraghi. Very good signs for the future.

The depth in the attacking positions is good; Gabbiadini, Destro, Borini, Paloschi, El Shaarawy, Immobile, Macheda, Forestieri, Dumitru. Obviously I'm just name checking here, but they are all rated in one way or another, and you only need 2-3 to become really good players, which seems possible.

I'm expecting big things from Francesco Bardi, Mattia Perin, Nicola Leali, Luca Caldirola, Michele Camporese, Giuseppe Prestia, Alessandro Crescenzi, Davide Santon, Cristiano Biraghi, Luca Marrone, Lorenzo Insigne, Lorenzo Crisetig, Marco Verratti, Elio De Silvestro, Federico Mattiello, Lorenzo Tassi, Mattia Destro, Stephan El Shaarway, Manolo Gabbiadini and Fabio Borini over the next 4-7 years.

Bookmarked for future failure reference.

No doubt some of those names will fade into Serie B/Lega Pro obscurity, but there is quite a bit of talent there for once, and they seem to be coached the right way and are developing a bit of a winning mentality.

These are the players who I think have the potential to have good to great careers: Caldirola, Crescenzi, Camporese, Fabbrini, Santon, Gabbiadini, Destro, Insigne, Saponara and El Sharaawy. Not a bad list of players.

Only position I'd say Italy arent producing a lot of at the moment is GK's. Not convinced by the likes of Mannone and Pinsoglio. I wonder if the Inter owned Bardi will be the next great Italian GK.

Hows Macheda doing nowadays?

 

[JuveJay]

Bardi, Perin and Leali are all rated highly, but keeper is a specialised position where mistakes get highlighted and kids get crucified. Look at Fiorillo.

 

[JuveJay]

Hows Macheda doing nowadays?

Did poor at a crap Samp and can't get a game at United. Although a few months ago he was seen as the main man in the Azzurrini team playing against England. He has talent but he's not fantastic, it's about taking your chances and I'm not sure he is mentally strong enough.

Insigne and El Shaarawy are most promising out of that bunch (that I seen).

El Shaarawy and Mario Barwuah to lead the Azzurri to many African Cups of nation.

France 1-1 Italy

Santon - 5 - Caldirola - Crescenzi
7 - 4 - Verratti - Insigne
Gabbiadini - Destro

Anyone knows who the guys with these numbers are? Plus the french guys too, would be nice to know (per numbers). Verratti is a damn beast, didn't know that guy. Gabbiadini was lacking some instinct today, but he's exactly the kind of striker I like.

 

[king Ale]

Do we have any player in the U21 team?

 

[JCK]

Fuck Giovinco

 

[king Ale]

 

[Flamez]

Insigne, you mean?

@king Ale: Pinsoglio, Marrone (not called) and Fausto Rossi, I think. IDK, if these two are still owned by Juventus, though.

Verratti is probably the best player in Serie B this year, this guy is gonna be a monster playmaker. Pescara has a good chance of gaining promotion, in any case he'll be in Serie A next season as some big team will buy him otherwise. He's a bit small (1.65m) but he's a master at through balls.

1-Bardi
5-Capuano
7-Florenzi
4-Verratti

Saponaro is number 16, you're missing him out there. Edit: That may or may not be true. But Bardi goalkeeper, Capuano defense, Florenzi #7 and Saponaro is the final guy.
