Since Italy can qualify as 3rd in the group if can maintain a decent GD, I’d say would be a disaster not qualifying for the knockout even if the quality of this team is pretty low.
Poor Orsolini, he deserved to be called
Interesting that even without playing for most of the season, they still prefer a player like Fagioli over every other midfielder that could have gotten the spot.
Why wasn’t Di Gregorio called up? Wasn’t he best goalie of the season?
looks like he will go with the 3421 instead of the 4231
Why is Cristante in the squad? I’m a Roma fan but I can tell you, he’s not that good. There are better midfielders in Italy than him.

What’s stopping Spalleti from copying Inter Milan’s back 5? I’m hoping Chiesa and Donnaruma can copy their form from the last Euros too.
Fagioli and Folorunsho don’t really know why they are there…
Chiesa and Scamacca better step up because that attack looks toothless. He brings 10 defenders but leaves out Orsolini. Bizarre.
Honestly, i think we should have more Faith in this team, while the attack might not be on par with the others (such as England or France) the rest can work out pretty good…
Putting the trust in Spalletti 👊
I wouldn’t have called Meret, Fagioli and one between ElSha, Raspadori and Zaccagni, all the wingers play better on the left, nobody except Chiesa can actually play on the right.
Insane that Italy is European Champion with 3 national teams at the same time:
* Euro 2020, Senior National Team
* Euro U19
* Euro U17
Looks like the prime strength of this team according to Spaletti is defence. So he is investing more into that. And I’m not sure I can blame him too much for that. Because our attack isn’t really prolific for scoring a lot of goals.
Chiesa is a great outlet to relieve the pressure and Scamacca is also great for hold up play. But we don’t have a lot of experience in our front players. Politano was another good experienced player who is missing this time. Orsolini deserved a call up for the season he has had but he also hasn’t played much in European competitions.
No Immobile or Insigne this time. El Shaarawy is an alright player at best. Hate to say it but I actually think Spaletti is in the right here.
No politano ?
Would’ve taken politano instead of zaccagni and Pessina instead of Fagioli
Ma perché parlate inglese se è una cosa italiana io non capisco
Orsolini should be in this team. Zaccagni played less games and scored less goals, and was nowhere near as good as he had been before. But not even to single out him, and I really like Raspadori, but he had a horrible year. Some of these feel like nepotism or “familiarity”. No Politano is a shame too.
Fagioli, Folorunsho and Zaccagni shouldn’t be on this team. Even El Sha is suspicious to some extent
Orso 🙁
NO BALOTELLI?? Really??
I repeat the same thing that i say in other posts
We will not concede any goal, and we will play with 4 wings and sometimes without striker
2 runners in the left and 2 runners in the right
Pellegrini and frattesi have long shot range to score
The injuries only affect our bench in the defense
Acerbi is too old only for the inter block was in the list

Arguably the best italian players available.
