VillaChris Posted Saturday at 17:06 Share Posted Saturday at 17:06 10 minutes ago, foreveryoung said: Italy were shite in the last final against us. We let 39 year old Chellini run the show, they didn't do much else. It was ours to lose, an we gave it to them Their midfield unit back then was way better than it is now. Jorginho had just played a major role in Chelsea winning the CL a few weeks before. Veratti also in there but now in semi retirement in Saudi. Chiesa also much better in 2021 than he is now, probably as good in that tournament as Nico Williams is in this one. Never been the same force since his ACL which is why I don't think he'd be a game changing signing for us like many still believe on the transfer thread. 2-0. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely thought El Shawaray was about 36 or 37, sure he was playing for them in late 2000s with all of Pepe, Luca Toni, Quagliarella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marka Ragnos Posted Saturday at 17:11 VT Supporter Share Posted Saturday at 17:11 My prediction was SUI 2-1. May end up 4-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted Saturday at 17:17 Share Posted Saturday at 17:17 Danny Murphy tactical insight all game. Get it to the bloke who can run. Pace. Get Chiesa up front he's got pace. This is worse than Spain a few years back when he spoke for 90 minutes about getting Adama Traore on because he's rapid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

switters Posted Saturday at 17:33 Share Posted Saturday at 17:33 it feels bizarre they're still wheeling out likes of Darmian and El Shawaary, but ditched Immobile, who may be past it too, but at least has some history of scoring goals. They seem particularly lacking in strikers if Scamacca is the best they have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted Saturday at 17:48 VT Supporter Share Posted Saturday at 17:48 Suffice to say I don't think many of this Italy side will write their names in the book of Italian greats when you look back in 20, 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few like Chiesa and Barella can at least look back on last Euros. Donnarumma looks the only top class player they have now. Spalletti will be gone by morning I expect.
