What is your stance on Amauri playing for the Azzurri? Acceptable?
Don't want him, can't stand him. Not for the Azzurri. It may be pot calling the kettle black to you, but the difference is a guy like Rossi has close Italian ancestry and grew up wanting always to play for the Azzurri. He turned down chances to play for the US hoping and waiting for a call up for the Azzurri.
A guy like Amauri on the other hand has no Italian ancestry, and only wants to play for us because he never made it for Brazil. If Brazil wanted him he would want nothing to do for us. I don't want a non-Italian mercenary.
A guy like Carmoranesi I'm in the middle of the two on. An least he has Italian ancestry, but if Argentina had called him he never would have played for us, so world cup winner or not, I really wish he wasn't on our national team either.
