100%. If anyone could have squeezed something out of this talentless generation, it's him. A few great talents on a couple of positions and everywhere else decent squad players that in a right system could shine and be good enough. Perfect mix for conte.FIGC should have pleaded for Conte. It might not be pretty but he’d get them into the Euros.
You could bring in the best manager ever and they couldn't do anyhting with these players. The decline of talent has been on spotlight since the early 2010s and it's not gonna change anytime soon. It speaks volumes when Mancini tried to call up foreigners with Italian passports.I don’t think Spalletti will be the answer. Italy don’t have the wingers for 4-3-3 especially if Chiesa can no longer be relied upon. Politano and Zaccagni aren’t scaring anyone even if I do like the latter and his club form. And the strikers? Yeesh. It’s a sad indictment of how empty the cupboard is when Immobile is starting qualifiers in 2023.

These numbers are wrong. For instance, Milan are listed as 21/28, but they started 10 non Italians last match. Calabria is the only Italian in their starting XI.
Serie A Italia and their stranieri this season.
21/28 means they have 21 non-Italians, no? So only 7 Italians, which looks to be: Sportiello, Mirante, Calabria, Florenzi, Caldara, Pobega, and some goalkeeper named Nava.These numbers are wrong.

England also has a lot of foreign players. Spanish clubs do have lots of their own.How does that look like in England and Spain?
Yeah, I'm just an idiot. Carry on.21/28 means they have 21 non-Italians, no? So only 7 Italians, which looks to be: Sportiello, Mirante, Calabria, Florenzi, Caldara, Pobega, and some goalkeeper named Nava.
since Immobile is on the bench-Since when Donna is captain?
It's always whoever has the most caps. Donnarumma is basically guaranteed to be captain until he retires.Since when Donna is captain?
