why he start iaquinta with toni. they are both tall, go with gila-toni instead.
He may have one idea on his mind,to force the game over the flanks,even if he plays 3 man midfield,he can use Camoranesi and Grosso or even Oddo for that purpose.....or he will try to play some long balls up front for the 2 tall strikers.

I got the feeling that Camo will have a great tournament. He takes chances and is one of the few that will dribble and create chances. Pirlo just stays there and passes the ball left and right. He sometimes gets one right to the strikers but most of the time he doesn't help the attack and because he plays in front of the D he doesn't even help them either. I'd start Perrotta over him or play De Rossi with Gattuso when he comes back.

I don't know why Lippi starts Zaccardo over Oddo. They both defend like Zebina but Oddo makes runs and is a great crosser.

Iaquinta could be our Paolo Rossi. I wish. If Pippo gets a chances I think he'll take it. This guy can score shitty goals and that's what you need here.

De Rossi and Totti should use long range shots.

My ideal lineup when everybody will be healthy would be:

-------------Buffon
Oddo-Nesta-Cannavaro-Zambrotta
------------De Rossi
-----Camoranesi-Gattuso
--------------Totti
---------Toni-Gilardino

I'd play DP, Inzaghi or Perrotta in the 2nd half depending on the result.

This one ,against Ghana,is a special...a lot of running and energy we need,and he is the man at the midfield that we need for that task.

I don't consider USA as a major threat!

its not about u.s.a being a major threat, he is injured and wont play.....

Good lineup but I would prefer Del Piero attacking the left, Toni in the center and Totti on the right. DP on Totti are not too wide and not too narrow as both are very good crossers and have high creativity. Gila for Toni later on, Iaquinta for either Totti or Del Piero and Inzaghi for anyone of them cause he can score from anywhere.

    If they think and wake up, then maybe it will.

    It's a disgrace to say that 2 such figures as these cant play well together, they can if they wanted too but they dont. After 10-11 years playing in the same league, the same club and the same national team, nothing has come out of it and 1 of them is playing out of position. I suggested not only Del Piero to be there but Totti with him because Del Piero can't be the only one, he needs support badly or all will be lost. And Since when did we see him play effectively behind the strikers this year with Juve ? Capello tried something but it didn't work as we have seen with the 2 friendlies before the WC. If something is to change, it's definitely putting Del Piero in striker position and let him do the magic like he showed us this year, not behind the strikers.

    I would definitely play Del Piero at striker position!!!
