SES still in wing-back mode. DDR pointing him towards the left striker spot Laughing

Dat Chiellini lob to ES Proud

Best left flank in the world Proud

El Chiellawy>>>>Ronaldcelo Proud

Agreed.

Bonbon nearly adding to his 37 deflected goals past Buffon.

They never go down as an Own Goal. Thank the heavens they don't.

by Tomwin Lannister Fri 7 Jun - 21:11:17

Liam Neeson with the effort over goal. Good touch.

by zarola Fri 7 Jun - 21:16:03

we're playing awful :S

by Tomwin Lannister Fri 7 Jun - 21:16:14

Worst tactical corner ever?

by Kaladin Fri 7 Jun - 21:26:43

This is why Monty isn't suited as a TQ, he occupies spaces in the midfield, sometimes unintentionally causing DDR and Marchisio to push higher up than usual. Almost got compromised there

by Tomwin Lannister Fri 7 Jun - 21:28:23

Not creating anything decent infront of goal.

I think this NT misses Rossi quite a lot.

Abate crossing the ball 30m in the air above everyone as if the goal was in the nose bleeds Proud

by zarola Fri 7 Jun - 21:31:36

whoever said Abate crosses well for Italy is deeeeead wrong lmfao

by Kaladin Fri 7 Jun - 21:33:16

BALLLLLoooo should've passed it to Minty man Sad

Prandelli cant keep on experimenting like this, its ridiculous

------Andrea B------------Bonbon-----------Chiello--------

----------Marchisio--------Pirlo-------------De Rossi------
---------------Balotelli---------------ES/Quags-----------

Done ffs. Come on Prandelli insisting on playing with a back 4 and a TQ when you end up picking 3 CB's and a Pirlo type player in the TQ role is stupid.

Just play what the players are nearly all comfortable with.

Most players in that team play with a back 3 over 40 times a year ffs.

by Tomwin Lannister Fri 7 Jun - 21:58:36

FFS Abate, stop crossing it above everybody.

Hand on heart I am a better crosser than Abate.

by nasir6371 Fri 7 Jun - 22:00:54

With how narrow Italy is playing I would substitute for a more Attacking Fullback or winger. Sub of abate

by Tomwin Lannister Fri 7 Jun - 22:03:34

Nah the solution is to play 3-5-2, Abate is definitely the best RB. However, he's a shit crosser.

Pepe is the only wide man that should get anywhere near the NT, and he's been out for a year.

by nasir6371 Fri 7 Jun - 22:11:24

Buffon

Keeping Italy in so many matches Proud

by Tomwin Lannister Fri 7 Jun - 22:12:38

Shots on target

C. Rep 6

Italia 0

We don't have the players to absorb and break. We shouldp play 3-5-2 and impose our game.

On paper the team is stacked, with plenty of Chemistry. Juve GK back 3 and 2/3rd's of the midfield.

Milan attacking trio (before sub) and DDR fits in regardless.

by zarola Fri 7 Jun - 22:15:31

softest red card ive ever seen
edit: nevermind he kinda grabbed the face of the guy

by Tomwin Lannister Fri 7 Jun - 22:15:48
