Mancini is okay for now. No point in wasting a good coaching talent on this shitty Italy squad.

Better than Montella anyway.

Leo-Alessio central defense pairing starting from next match, which will be the key behind the Qatar 2022 win.

So far I have seen the best and worst of Balo. Great when he wants to be Italy's CF, terrible when he wants to be more than that.

On another note Florenzi, Pellegrini, Politano and Insigne look really bad.

Other than DDR who I'm fairly sure retired Verratti, Bernardeschi, Immobile, Chielini & Chiesa are missing

Jorginho so far has been pretty good. Verratti could be used instead of Florenzi. I just hope they do not try to use him as regista because I have seen already how that looks and it is not pretty.
