I find it worrying that France has decided not to talk to the media as this has left us being the team talking and ranting on about winning the most (Except for the Dessailly comment which never came from a current French player anyway). IMO, losing this final will probably be more painful for us than for France. Football can be really cruel so I hope theres no overconfidence.

Italia players have been talking about " It's France's turn", " We are hungrier, so we'll win" and all that kinda stuff while the French have kept their cards close to their chest..................I dont know

What are they up to ?
I don't literally know what their up to off course but it's normal to shut the player's mouths to the media if they haven't been performing up to the notch in the tournament. Just a way to let the Italians think they can win it all. If Henry or Vieira or whoever had said something, the benifit goes to the Italian players and it boosts their morale higher.

I get what you're saying. Lets just beat them in Berlin and end it.
Forza Italia

Italians must play the way like they did against Germany.... patient, passing game and not get frustrated against the more experienced French.
I believe Cannavaro and co. will cope with Zidane, Henry and Ribery. The only thing is, whether the Italians can score an early goal and settle themselves better in this final. Forza Italia!

im watching the game at home.watching it in a crowd sorta makes me nervous.plus the taunts irritate me.
I am watching the game at home as well. I was told that I should never watch a game in public because there are the fanatics, and then there is me. :p

Forza Italia!
