How the fukk is ITALY, 5 TIME WORLD CUP CHAMPION ITALY, miss out on back to back world cups??

incredible.

They are old and slow. Italy doesn't produce proper talent anymore. Their best recent prospect is Dollarumma who isn't even a modern keeper .

They are getting left behind and need to embrace and integrate the African migrant children like the rest of Europe has in their teams. Because theirs plenty of talent in the Italian academies.

* edit*

I forgot about Chiesa but he's injured till September the earliest

Italy out

I love this time of qualifiers, there's always a shock result. I hate that they're adding more teams to future world cups

You hate it huh, but UEFA sends 13 out of 32 as is

Same question I asked in my GC. For the Azzurri it’s probably Del Piero.

They just haven’t had any real top class strikers in recent times.

Immobile a tap in and PK merchant.

striker? Forward in general. A world class Italian winger is an oxymoron

 

[phcitywarrior]

All Italy needed was 1 goal against Northern Ireland and Macedonia. fukking embarrassing

It was that Penalty miss by Jorginho against Switzerland in the dying moments of that game that did em win. He makes that and they’re in Qatar.

Chiesa is a baller

He wouldn't have went out like that

[Kunty McPhuck]

Chile are so

If I looked it up its probably the same XI that played Brazil in the World Cup back in 2014

 

[WaveMolecules]

Colombia

Colombia

Losing?

I've got Brazil/Chile and Uruguay/Peru on.

I saw the line up before hand very attacking with 5 attackers
