People calling for him to be sacked. Crying after not winning friendies like it's something new. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You know who you are.
No, Prandelli is still making highly questionable decisions. You can tell by the almost disastrous decision to play Chiellini on the left. IMO he would have looked pretty foolish leaving a natural like Criscito at home if things did not work out. As it was, Chiellini was one of the worst on the pitch. Luckily, Balotelli is buff and can successfully lead a one man attack or Prandelli would be facing many questions on the decisions he made yesterday. Besides, there is still the matter of making up for that 4-0 debacle in the Euro Cup final, a record defeat, before anyone starts praising Prandelli for anything. LOL! Only a noob would be declaring vindication after 1 group game, one where the result was never secure until the end, at that.
Whether you like Prandelli or not, i don't think this is the way to begin a thread. You would probably receive more responses if you didn't insult people before they even enter the thread.
I don't hate Prandelli, just hate some of his decision making and it also happened in the match that we won vs England, like how he organized the backline.
Results speak for themselves, we are not stacked with elite players but yet we have only lost to Spain and Brazil in competitive games since his time in charge. I thought the substitutions yesterday were strange, but Im sure he had his reasons. There is probably a lot we don't see in terms of fitness tests, psychological impression of players that affect his decision making.
Not interested in moron clueless idiots liking me on an internet forum. I state the truth. I call it the way I see it.
what the hell are you attacking fellow italy fans for? we're all on the same side rooting for the same colors. prandelli is a good coach with weaknesses and strengths. in my opinion he's one of the better national team managers in world football. i don't hold the euro 2012 final loss against him. injuries forced players out of position and casued several subs to be wasted. spain ran up the score like d!ckheads. a true indicator was the first game when italy played a 3-5-2 and would have beaten spain in the group stage had balotelli converted his scoring chance. today he did the best he could with the lineup. his sub choices were questionable though. still though i think his pros outweigh his cons.
more importantly, why would you make a thread like this after only one game? and against england, you can praise england all you want but if you pretented for a moment that was italy in their place we would not be very optimistic about the futer, im not against prandelli here but this is no time to call out the anti prandelli's
Can I get a mod to Hall of Fame this thread for me, please. I suspect I am going to want to refer back to it at later dates.
So, little airplane. where are you? Damn, you look quite the fool now. Do us all a favor and go do a Superga huh? Can't believe they gave Prandelli another two years! He should have never been the national team coach to begin with. He has never won jack shit, not even a Coppa Italia. I'd be laughing right now, but since the dream of tying Brasil in Brasil is over, I can't help crying.
I'll probably cry more when Germany ties us on 4. And looking at those gifs of Insigne and Cerci above, makes me think they should stick to acting.
Quite sure the FIGC would try and appoint Conte. There's no escaping Juve here... I'm not even joking about Ambrosini being there now lol
Nah he's not that stupid. Ideally the only real winning italian manager is Ancelotti. But he's taken Who else is available? Mancini, Spalletti, Alegri (lol no), Guidolin?
