So I'd be very happy with Antonio.
Who would you rather go on holiday with?
I would hope you would say Mancini.
Although I'm sure Conte can be charming on his day.
On his day.
know here's roberto baggio or here's del piero off the bench yeah yeah certainly that level of striker is something we haven't seen yeah striker number 10. we haven't seen that from italy in a long long time yeah i agree i tend to agree with that when you look at some of the past options that they had at number nine especially on number tens or those attacking positions going back to obviously 20 years ago in the 06 world cup but even you
around that kind of era it's not there yet but again it's a cycle we can look at Germany in the number 9 you can look at France in the fullbacks you can look at in each country you've got positions where it's a little bit weaker than in others which is absolutely fine but are you doing anything about it are you doing anything to make this team better I think it's also probably and you would think you know that Serie A being where it is right now
You don't have many goals scored in Serie A. There's not that amazing, great strikers either.
Proper number nines either.
If you take Lautaro out for the rest, I don't think he's right.
So he might not just be the national team.
I think he might be more either structural or, you know...
Yeah, I just think, again, the managers, the head coach is wrong.
Gattuso can't implement any...
style, any philosophy, any idea outside of let's fight for the shirt, let's do this, let's do that, which obviously has massive limits as we saw since he took over, not just in his Bosnia game, but also in the Northern Ireland game, also in the Israel game.
Let's not even talk about the Norway game that he was on the bench for.
So, you know, all of that is part of it massively.
He was the wrong pick from the beginning.
Yeah, absolutely.
For me, 70% of foreign players in Serie A is far too much, far too many.
