    Bernardeschi always plays like a spaz out there. Slow it down. Belotti has been awesome. Shows he is a starter on this team. Darmian I'm not sure is an upgrade from De Sciglio. Zappacosta was ok.

    Belotti's starting spot is set in stone now.

    Use your imagination. Picture two potatoes trying to bang each other if they could. It would be a rough and probably wouldn't work out... So I guess the word im going for to describe this game is impotence....

    Fair enough. I often find 3-5-2 against 3-5-2 games boring, as both sides tend to cancel each other out like they did here.

    I hate this... what is the point?

    They would be very lucky to have any chance at impacting the game if they came in at the 80th minute....

    Putting guys in with 5 minutes or less is like a ultimate ******** you to the player being subbed on and the player being subbed off as well.

    The subs get sweaty for no reason and have to shower and it just adds tension to the locker room, it was a friendly, they should have been in at the 75th minute.

    LOL more like you can't win against us. That 4-1 friendly was an exception. Remember you only beat us on a penalty shootout in the Euros. If this was a knockout game, it would have gone to ET and penalties as well. It was just a closed game with not much offered in attack. Very defensive game.

    Germany has weak points in it's player pool, among which we count strikers. We have CMs for days though... :D

    Belotti is the man, immobile once again was ghost and pretty much irrelevant as always against good teams (no shock ) did eder even play ? I didn't see him lol Just usless! Buffon is still drinking holly water. Why did Ventura even bring on Zaza lol I swear Ventura is trolling us .. He will have a hard time trying to convince Azzurri fans that eder is a starter on this. Him and Zaza Should not get another call up.

    Im not here for trolling but not beating Germany in 4 attempts is an horrific figure. And this time it was the B/C squad that you didnt beat.

    I really don't see how that makes you guys a new nemesis. It doesn't dismiss 70+ years of you never beating us at all. This was arguably the weakest (at the Euro's) Italian team of all time from top to bottom and you barely beat it on penalties.

    Come one man did you see our forward options ? Other than belotti none of these guys had a goal in them. Anyways we'll meet again when Ventura gets rid of the dead weight.

    He's clearly trolling us by still finding minutes for Zaza to show his face. Like I've said Ventura has a big ego. That move was basically a move to say I don't care what you guys think. I'm still riding with Zaza.

    lol at testing out Zaza. What is there is see in 3 minutes ? Ventura just brought him on to show that he didn't drop him. It's a troll move to the fans asking for him to drop Zaza.
