94 Final is when I started following them. So I've no idea or memory of Baresi. Only including players I've seen in action.

Gattuso for Albertini okay. It's 40-60 for me really.

I've thought through striker and I'm gonna go with Pippo. Vieri and Toni drop to the bench. Camo and Vieri plan B.

Coach Lippi.

Buffon
Zambrotta Nesta Canna Maldini
De Rossi Pirlo Gattuso
Totti Baggio
Pippo

Bench: Toldo, Costacurta, Panucci, Perotta, Albertini, Camoranesi, Vieri, Toni

Interesting wild. Zola.

Btw why would you dudes pick pippo over del piero???
Del piero is better than pippo in everything barring finishing. Del piero is much better technically and more complete.
Vieri over del piero really?? Lel

Veiri over Pippo also.
Delp good but not as good as Bag or Tot.
Would have included Baresi , Costa and Donadoni but I thought you guys wanted younger Italians.

Pogba. Wbu?
Vieira for now

Pogba will probably develop into a better attacking player, but Vieira will probably remain better defensively
Where's Barthez le magnifique?

:thumbsup:
I absolutely adore Barthez, but I really like Lloris' distribution.

Henry is too cool to be left out :o

Del piero has never done anything for Italy (that Germany goal was pretty much pointless.. Game.was finished and if it was 0-0 that choker would have missed). Also with Baggio there you don't need del Piero or totti, but if u wanna pick one it has to be er pupone.

Vieri was amazing for us, the guy was a beast.

I actually didn't pick pippo as he had a very limited career for Italy. My team had only 1 striker with Baggio behind him.

Jammin's French team is solid. No Deschamps though?

guys since you guys watch seria a more than me. I have to ask whats the deal with Pogba? Yes he seems like a really good player. but I just dont understand the fees they are talking about....120 million euros. Every time I watch him I never get the impression like woow this guy is amazing. I mean juve would have won the titles they won without him surely?

That's because he isn't worth even close to 120million. If it was Milan selling him we would have done it for Max 50m. But since Juve are really good at selling, Mourinho/EPL is very good in wasting money and Raiola is very good at making loads of money of his prized assets, therefore you have this crazy price.

I swear to God I have no idea how many times I've watched Juve and thought the same thing. Never amazed me. Most overrated player in history of the game, hands down.

I have reached a level where I start to question my own sanity with him. I keep thinking yeah he is a solid player, but now elite player....but everyone cant be wrong.

whats terrific exactly. Like Ronaldo/Suarez level of important player? He is obviously very good. but for 120 million you better be a consistent match winner. I mean yeah gundogan went for 20 million euroos and Pogba 120 million euros. I really dont think at their best there is much difference between the two at all

I think what makes Pogba so attractive is that he has physical tools that most of the players mentioned don't. Not only is he talented, but he has a combination of strength, speed and height that is very rare. If ever he is able combine all the tools into one package he really has the potential to be one of the most complete footballers ever and because he is still young I guess teams are willing to take that chance.
