So how do you square that up?
I say this, I can't help but feel that there is an expectation that comes from within Italy that because of who they are, because of how many World Cups they've won, because of their footballing history,
deserve the right to be there.
And I say that because you heard that from Gautuso.
After finishing second time, outstanding Norway team in the group phase where Italy have to play a playoffs.
How does that work?
And so it speaks to
if not an arrogance, an expectation around who they are.
Nobody deserves to be in a workup.
You earn the right to be in a workup.
Unless you're hosting, you earn the right to be in a workup.
And as long as that mentality continues, I fear you will see this kind of up and down.
certainly a whole lot more downs of late of Italian football.
There are a lot of issues to be fixed, whether we're talking Syria and how they compete financially, whether we're talking about the development.
But until you fix that attitude, I'm not sure things get better regardless.
