Italy

[Hamzah]

for me this team makes sense, (i don't know if nesta is coming out of retirement or not? If he isn't then Cannavaro)

-------------------Buffon------------------
--Santon-----Nesta---Chielinni-----Grosso--
----------Palombo-----De Rossi------------
------------------Pirlo---------------------
---Balotelli-----------------------Di Natale-
-----------------Gilardino------------------

I think that Grosso is now the worst left defender in Italy. And don't forgot that Santon has played only a few times this year.
Pirlo is also a bad player now. Two years ago he was the best Midf in the world, but now doesn't play well.
P.S. Nesta quit the "Nazionale" in 2008, now there's Cannavaro. Unfortunately.

Why on earth Lippi doesnt suck it up and just bring cassano is beyound me, i sorta know the situation but cum on he's superb. Aquilani should be in the line up, criscito should be going aswell.

 

[diegomessi]

Cassano is BY FAR my FAV italian player!

I bet if Cassano was playing in Juve, Lippi call him immediately. You don't know Lippi.

Oh yeh i know he favours juves(edit), i though 1 one of the main reasons because there was a dispute between lippi,cassano and totti, which lead to lippi disliking him?

Totti have not any problems with Lippi, he decided to quit the "Nazionale" but only for physical problems. In Italy we are not used tu play 40-50 matches a-year. Don't forgot he is about 33 years old

My team would be:

------------------------------Buffon----------------------------


----Zambrotta------Chiellini---------Cannavaro------Santon--


----------------------------De rossi------------------------------


----------------Pirlo-------------------------Aquiliani---------


----------------------------Cassano---------------------------


--------------Rossi--------------------Iaquinta---------------

 

[FCBarca]

Santon is out for a bit...I think Marchisio should be in there too, actually

Zambrotta ISN'T a player

 

[AnfieldEd]

Well from 2005 - 2007 he was the best full back in the world, and whilst he has come down a level or 2 from that, he is still a solid and reliable player.

Unless he also retired from the national team?

No, he only is an ex-player

what the flying fuck has aquilani done to deserve a place? prove that he isnt as good as lucas?? d'agostino, palombo and monty all deserve a shot ahead of him. and i hate pirlo, overhyped piece of pony faecal matter.

zambo was shit for us, and he was with us in 2007 so have to disagree on him being the best in the world at that point.

you can't not play di natale.

---di natale--rossi--cassano

[Interfan]

I'd like to see Italy like this:
Buffon
Santon Chiellini Santacroce Criscito
De Rossi Palombo
Di Natale Cassano Balotelli
Gilardino/Iaquinta

 

[Lemmi]

forgot about santacroce, has he had a good season? very inexperienced defence though..
