Italy was amazing today and unlucky not to win 4 or 5 to 1.

I think for Belgium Match they should stick to a 4 4 2 and DO NOT PLAY PESSOTTO. Biggest mistake was not brining Panucci who is their best right back.

Also its unfortunate they dont have a great left footed player who can dribble like Del Piero for the left flank.

Keep Fiore and Partner him with Del Piero. Upfront Totti and Inzaghi.

Also Italy shouldn't try and play a midfield like Brasil with their wingers. Italy simply doesnt have those type of dribblers. They should play in a box.


EG Totti Inzaghi

Del Piero
Fiore

Albertini Zambrotta

Maldini Iulliano
Caravanno Nesta

Toldo

I was also impressed with Del Piero .He just came 15 minutes before the end of the game and created a lot of chances including the free kick that hit the crossbar .Could this be the Del Piero before being injured ?

Of course Zambrotta is not (yet) a great winger, but he offers hard work and consistency. The same can't be said of Pessotto.

You can't however forget the great, old di Livio, a player very important for every team.

I honestly think that a supporting cast consisting of Fiore, Totti and Del Piero could wreck havoc on every team, play Zambrotta and Conte on the wings, Fiore and Albertini central, Del Piero and Totti behind Inzaghi - that's the best Itay can currently play.
And I'm afraid it won't be enough, but in about 1 year with Vieri back and with BARONIO taking Albertini's place this will again be a top team.
