    Granted the defence is weak.

    Ballotelli is the perfect lone striker, can produce magic, drop short for the ball, hold the ball up on the ground and in the air while also having pace to run in behind. There is very few strikers in the world that are capable of this.

    Pirlo is as quality as ever, ages like a fine wine, possibly the best deep play maker there has ever been.

    Candreva is quality.

    Veratti will undoubtedly replace Pirlo one day, while Pirlo is almost irreplacebale he will do a fine job.

    Marchisio again is world class and he and Pirlo have been one of the main reason Juve have blown away Serie A 3 out of the 4 seasons.

    This Italy side is underated.

    I've played football for several professional Youth academy's, and been paid to play semi professionally since the age of 16, the quality of insight and tactical knowledge displayed on MOTD is FA badge level one, a qualification that everyone and my Granny could achieve.

    the defense is weak? when's the last time italy won a WC based on their stellar attacking? they are a defensive team. candreva is decent, and marchisio is class, but not world class. vidal and pirlo are the only 2 world class players in the juve midfield

      Playing along side Pirlo makes him world class, he makes every player in the side so much better because of his control of the game, he dictates it.

      I was comparing this Italy defence with other previous Italian defences, it's clearly very good though.

      Candreva is just decent yeah ok.

        America are going to get ploughed in by Portugal and Germany which will result in half the people here disappearing.

        BTW Muller has put us both back in it
        That offside trap is the most entertaining thing that has happened in this game.

        It was the equivalent of offering your chin to Golovkin, lol.

        Suicide. I love it.

        Muller has saved us from getting cut adrift, haha.

          it took candreva like an entire year to stop getting booed at every lazio home match. he would be with a better club if he was any better. juventus had him on loan and candreva was fairly crap the entire time. he is just decent. if you watched italy or the serie a ever, you would know this.

          PS when pirlo is out injured, vidal is still world class. marchisio isn't.

            Lets be honest England would smash Brazil.. no way we would lose to a team which plays a pizza delivery guy as there main forward... and sideshow bob as a CB

            To much pace and skill.. hope we get them in the quarters when we SMASH uruguay/Costa Rica and Colomiba

            Feel sorry for Brazil.. 10 or so years ago they had the 3 R's.. Ronnie, Rivaldo and Ronaldhino.. now they have Fred, Neymar and Ramires....

                We'd hit at least 6.

                  Honestly i really rate Candreva, sometimes quality players at certain clubs just don't click.

                  Ive never said Vidal wasn't.

                    o.k Mexico - you're doing well.

                    But stop shooting from the edge of the world.
