  2. Alessandro said it correctly, he's the only person on this panel that knows what he's talking about. Argentina has recovered it's soul thanks to Scaloni. it's not just about Messi being happy. this team has regained the love of the Argentine people and the mystique that had been missing for a long time.

  5. Italy needs to focus on their players in Serie A. Too many foreigner's and Serie A and not enough attention is put on their younger talent's

  7. This is just a sad performance from Italy it is embarrassing to watch and sad. They need youth on the team and just fire. Mancini and hire Ancelloti as head coach. This team needs a massive rebuild from top quality strikers to a solid Backline defences. Serie A also needs to invest more in there youth and young talented Italian players and stop relying on foreigners in there top leagues. It's only damaging Italian football have faith in your own Italian born youth football players. FORZA ITALIA ?? FOREVER

  8. I'd like to see an entirely healthy Italian squad when it's time for qualification. Both of the Cups they have missed the have been playing the most important matches with out the full strength. Outside of the Euros which still had gaps due to injuries, the Italians haven't played a consistent 11. How can you build chemistry if the starting lineup is always changing? I'm not saying they always turn in great or even good performances, but I feel like a lot pundits aren't telling the whole story. Sure against North Macedonia they couldn't buy a goal. It seemed as if there were 20+ shot attempts mostly coming from Berardi who let's be honest isn't starting with a healthy Cheisa. That's just one of many examples. Everytime they build moment, someone gets injured it's really a bummer. They haven't had a striker since 2006, but usually through terrific team play can get the job done, sadly just not when it matters most.

  12. This was the worst Italy in my life. They can be the Best and the worst in one day. It's life,as an Italian you get used to it.
    We will come back and upset all the haters again. But more Italian players in Serie A and less foreign players would help.
    Messi cane up against the weekest Italian defence in history, if there was Baresi, Nesta, Maldini, nit even one shot on goal. Only Maradona would have done it and even he lost to Italy in 82.

  13. I'm not sure if Mancini didn't really care about this match or not, but why the heck would you put Belotti, Bernadeschi, Pessina, Jorginho, and etc. in the starting lineup? Belotti and Bernadeschi are laughable, Jorginho has been playing awful right after the Euro cup, and Pessina hasn't been playing for Atalanta and did a terrible season. For f*** sake, you had Tonali, Pellegrini, Bastoni, Spinazzola, and etc.!!!! I like how people say Donnarumma was the man of the match. In reality, the first two goals could have been avoided if Donnarumma closed in Di Maria and ran out of the box (towards center) when Messi passed the ball to Lautaro. Look at the two goals that were allowed in the Euro with Spain and England. Instead of running towards Morata, he was going the opposite direction. Instead of positioning his body to the right pole, he left a huge gap when Shaw scored. He is really good from distance, but I see a huge problem with closing in the gap.

  15. Italy needs a new direction. The people coaching & picking these next gen, need to go because there are to many ex-gens among them.
    Argentina played very well. Good signs.

  16. This Argentina side is perhaps the best Messi has ever had finally a team that can play with him and for him, wherein previous team squads he was left alone to do all the attacking with no support, are they a perfect team no but they have team spirit and chemistry and that goes a long way in a tournament. Argentina should be feared by all team not only because Messi is happy but because he’s no longer the only threat at their disposal that teams can focus on, it’ll divert attention away from him and allow him to roam more freely against opponents

  18. What makes Argentina different these days is that while they know that Messi is their best player, they also seem to realize that he isn't their ONLY player. Oh and they figured out how to play defense too…

  20. Its beyond ridiculous that the European champions haven't qualified for the world cup… I'm surprised maldini is still in a job… it's totally unacceptable for Italy not to qualify for the world cup it's that simple and maldini should have been sacked on the spot

  24. There isn’t enough talent currently to compete with the big ones, I’m glad they are not playing in Qatar, it would have been another disaster.
