- The defending champions dont have the same momemtum as they did in 2021. Under manager Spaletti the team has been playing better but will it be enough for them to make a deep run at this Euros.
What about the key players like Chiesa Donnarumma & Bastoni how will they perform at this Euros!

Forza Napoli
Italy will win the euros.⚽️🏆
It will be Italy France Final.
Italy winning 2-1 in extra time.
I have seen it in my crystal ball
Forza Azzurri..⚽️🥇🎈🎉🏆
Italy has a history of playing very well in Germany
WTF are you talking about when you say they are not good in World Cups???... if you said "they have not been good in World Cups after they won it in 2006" that would be accurate. But in World Cups they have 4 and have been to the final 2 other times, and semis 2 more times... they actually historically perform better in World Cups than in Euros.
I meant in recent times ofc
2 world cups in pre-world war era. We all know what could have happened. Their World Cup record is overrated, Argentina are far more consistent. And H2H aside, they are nowhere near close to Germany and Brazil
@falconranger3116 rubbish. You forgot italy shouldve won 1990 and potentially 1994. Euro 2000. Argentina won with the best players in HISTORY maradona and messi.
Also, they say the 1930 italy (torino) team wouldve beat peles brazil.
He obviously means recent world cups🙄
Actually in Italy we absolutely don't feel any pressure except to reach the competition itself. This is our state of mind from 2010. Because we know that our generation of players is not legendary right now, we never expect anything. We didn't even expect to win the last one. But we know that we can lose immediately or win them all. It's all about the single match after match. your Analysis was really good and it's always interesting understand how people from outside see us. The crucial chance can be made by the Inter Block, which is the reason why Spalletti chose the defense with 3 centre backs. So acerbi, Bastoni, Barella, Dimarco, Darmian. The other important point is as you said, the scoring part. Chiesa and Scamacca have to prove something.
the fact donnarumma is only 25 amazes me, the guy has been in this for so long it almost feels like he should be 30, his best years are in the future, hopefully he fixes that couple things were he is lacking.
Scamacca might be one of those weird italian striker cases a la Salvatore Schillaci, where he suddenly gets into form and has an amazing tournament with the NT.
Scamacca right now needs to start his been superb with Atalanta recently
Italy needs to think about the future, in this case the next World Cup. We have enough quality to compete at the Euros, even retain it imo. At the same time we can start building a team for both the WC qualifiers and the WC itself. I wanna see many of our young talents in this squad. A 3-4-2-1 seems like the formation Spalletti will start with. Acerbi, Damien, Jorginho will mostly not play at the next WC. I will prioritize some of our young talents over them. You wonder why we’ve struggled at qualifying for the WC, because we use the old guys and never inject the youth when they’re even ready.
My starting 11 will be
Donnarumma
Calafiori Scalvini Bastoni
Bella Jorginho Barrella Di Marco
Pellegrini Chiesa
Scamacca
Both Scalvini and Calafiori have been excellent this season in Serie A with the former in Europa League. Calafiori is excellent with his feet and can adapt both in a back 4 and in the midfield. Pay attention to how Thiago Motta has used him. This formation can easily be turn into Spalletti’s preferred 4-3-3. Calafiori moves to LB, Bella to RB, Pellegrini to CM and Di Marco as a LW and Chiesa to his favorite RW. Also Di Marco with his offensive abilities can play LW. Acerbi and Damian will still go and play certain matches. It’s time to look to the future.
Honestly , brilliant.
The scary thing is if Italy get to the quarters they would play England or Germany. Donnarumma is the best penalty keeper in world football. With the inter block they are defensively tough. Germany is not great and England have Southgate.
Italy have a good midfield and defense
Worth noting that Germany didn't even beat Italy under 90 mins in every major tournament!
I would love for Italy to play Germany in the knockouts this euro and beat them again on their home ground. That semi final in euro 2012 was amazing but nothing beats 2006 world cup semi when Grosso and Del Piero took germany down I still get goosebumps watching that game 18 years later 🇮🇹💪@@ezraezra2928
germany is amazing. the form they have got now is much better than months ago. theyre the favourites along with france and england
@@-keiskx1774 No...not england!!!! They never win shit!!! 😂😂😂
Never discount Italy.. their first 2 games were nothing.. Just a test for them, they went out to keep the ball.. test out players..they did not go out determined to win..dont forget italy are one of the best..they have Spalletti who is a master mind like mancini.. against albania..it will be a different team..trust me
I've watched a lot of Italy over the qualifying cycle and during Splaetti's management. Even if they don't have that 1 crazy good striker, they have had a handful of guys step up at different times and they seem to just get the job done. They've actually seemed to struggle much more with keeping the ball out of their net whether it's from lackluster defensive play or via Donnarumma mistakes. What usually is a strength of Italian football is something I have recently found to be very very shaky instead.
Donnarumma just needs to be a shot stopper, none of this ball playing gk. That’s why the 3 cbs will be key in possession

These previews and the Copa America previews have been hitting like crack ❤
Big up bro 🙏🙏
Italy has always done well in tournaments when they have had a consistent backline playing together. Therefore I think Spaletti should play Darmian, Acerbi, Bastoni backline. They played together at club level for years and he should just do the same as Barzagli, Bonucci, Chelinni.
Wouldnt be shocked by it
For me Italy should manage to arrive at quarter finals as well! Scamacca Gianluca as striker is an excellent suggestion.
Italy always plays well in Germany
I agree that Zaniolo doesn't have any business to start. Quaterfinal is a reasonable expectaton for Italy. But I wouldn't be surprised if they get past the quarterfinal hurdle. I rate Spaletti and I think he's about to start cooking with Italy. Maybe this EURO comes too soon. Who knows. But I'm confident that Italy will look like a very good team and surprise some doubters.
Quarterfinal would be a respectable performance
In that formation who would use in place of Zaniolo
Grazie ragazzo ..spot on . Italy will do very well , has a good team but the coach is world class . I see our azzurri in the semifinals.
Michael deserves a LOT more subs
I think that your prediction for 2024 sounds reasonable. For this Euros, I am glad that Immobile and Belotti are not in the squad. Scammaca is on form and should start as their main striker.
Come on italy❤
Cambiaso is the best player in Juventus in this last period. I think he deserves the spot on the right for an offensive playstyle. Di Lorenzo is better for defensive style
With this team we'd be lucky to pass the group stage
Shhhhh
Don’t think Chiesa is lacking any confidence at all. Scored 9 goals in Serie A this season and won the Coppa Italia. He’s still playing very well
We need him to Turn it On !!!!
@@cousinsal1859 if he plays like how he did in the 2nd half vs Albania, he’ll have a great tournament!
I have no idea what to expect from Italy this time.
Just because Scamacca is killing it right now doesn’t necessarily mean he should be starting. I say retegui over him for now as he’s been in form playing with Italy. Take immobile for example, every year he was leading scorer and look how good he ended up….
Yes Retegui has shown up for the Azzurri but Scamaccas form is unreal right now
Do you think Spinazolla can return to form like 2020. He was a great play maker.
Solid video analysis. Italy in semis against France, then arrivederci. Yes, it's wishful thinking but anything can happen in football especially if you're Italy
I agree with you qfs max
I like the starting 11 except Jorginho. He was the reason we didn't qualify for the WC. Also I don't think hes that great. I'd prefer Bonaventura, Frattesi or even pessina
If you replace Jorginho with anyone it will be Cristante because of the defensive side
Italy has 1 good CF - Scamacca. Retegui is talented but lack experience to be 1st choice for a team like Italy at the moment
That’s why Retegui can be a good super sub
Has scammaca scored a goal for italy yet?
Yea
Retegui has an excellent goalscoring ratio for Italy so far. He may not score heaps but very useful if used properly. Much rather go into a tournament with him rather than Immobile, Pelle, Zaza and other "stars" we've seen not too long ago.
Issue with italy is the front 3. What is the best line up. Defense and midfield they have the quality. Alot of inter players should start just based on chemistry they have.
it will be a front 2 most likely had Berardi been fit maybe a front 3
@@MichaelTalksFootball1 But sadly, Berardi is now injured
@@MichaelTalksFootball1better off without Berardi
I have always found Italy are at there best when they have their backs against the wall,
When theres no pressure they perform
@@MichaelTalksFootball1i mean there was no pressure against france in 06 right?
I was moderately optimistic until recently but less so lately about this team. I think the tournament comes too early for Spalletti who's only been here 9 months, it's not enough to implement what he wishes to do. Maybe 2026 will be the right time for that (if they qualify that is). The group sucks: not because Spain or Croatia are particularly strong at the moment but because Italy always struggle against these teams. Would have been much better to be in the group of Germany, England, Belgium or Portugal.
The formation is another issue. Spalletti always has his teams play with a four-man backline but the Inter players who represent the core of the squad are used to playing with 3 at the back and Bastoni has looked very poor in a central defence partnership (rather than trio). Calafiori is excellent but unlikely so start (which is quite ridiculous frankly) and not even sure of his place.
Given the difficulties faced in qualifying I think R16 or 1/4 finals would be a good showing from Italy. From there we'll see.
Può essere ma succede quasi sempre che se poi arriva ai quarti sono gli altri che iniziano a tremare
Very tough group for Italy, cant really pick a team who would win the group, but i am confident we will pass the group. But the overall quality of the squads in this years EURO's is really insane.
Yep very competitive Euros upcoming cant wait!!
France are the Strongest watch out for the Netherlands 😊
Italia potential line up : 3-4-2-1
Donnarumma (c) : Darmian, Acerbi, Bastoni: Di Lorenzo, Barela, Jorginho, Di Marco: Chiesa, Pellegrini: Scamacca
Reserves line up:
Vicario: Mancini, Buongiorno, Scalvini: Bellanova, Cristante, Locatelli, Cambiasso: Fratesi, Bonaventura: Retegui/Raspadori
** Berardi, Udogie, Zaniolo injured
CHIESA is the key...period.
Orsolini is a good right wing he absolutely deserves the call up
Agreed!
Sadly I don't think Spalletti has what it takes to bring us to performing at our best. He's a good manager, but not suited for a national team. Also I don't see that euro 2020 hunger. Chiesa has really been unlucky, but the kid has immense potential, I think he may be the MVP for Italy for as far as we will go, which most likely won't be further than quarter finals if we want to be very optimistic. I hope I'm completely wrong of course lol
Look, as an Italian, I will say something and is the reality of Italian football… Italy can be the worst team you ever seen or the best defensive/mid team you ever seem.. you never know with this guys, and I think that’s beautiful… 2006 WC no one would have guessed Italy will win the WC, same in 2021 euro as well as in 1998 or 1990 WC that we get eliminated with the best Italian team of all times… with us you never know
I looked at the various possibiities, arriving first, second or third in the group, would get, if I'm non mistaken, Germany, England or France at quarter finals, so it's pretty much our unbreakable ceiling right now. But... we are Italy, we almost always perform when we are in a tight spot, in 1982 betting scandal, world champions, in 2006 calciopoli, world champions, in 2021 after a failed world cup qualification And a pandemic, european champions. Never write out Italy. In 2016 with the worst squad we've ever had we got eliminated at quarter finals after penalties against Germany. Dreaming is free, isn't it?
They’ll never get out of their group. It’s too difficult for them. They’re usually slow starters.
my italy starting xi : donnarumma; mancini, scalvini, bastoni; darmian, barella, cristante, dimarco; pellegrini, chiesa; scamacca. difficult to pick the starting gk bcs vicario has been really good with spurs, and to choose the 3rd back, and the pivot next to barella bcs italy lack of holding midfield players rn.
Feel like Jorginho will still start
Mancini and Cristante? No way! I won’t even pick Mancini for the tournament and Cristante at best start from the bench.
I never understood why Bernardoi isn’t an option instead of Zaniolo ,,, on the RW with Chiesa on LW ,, as a substitute Zaniolo I’d bring in
That's alot of talking 🥵
Forza Azzurri 🥇🏆
Nice break down. I prefer the starting 11 to be Donnarumma - Dimarco Bastoni Buongiorno Darmian Cambiaso - Jorginho barella - Chiesa Scamacca Pellegrini
Cambiaso has been really good lately
Italy are notoriously slow starters. Never write them off. Nobody expected them to win e2020.
DiLorenzo will play bro
7:55 Zaniolo is injured
he's always injured....waste of time
If we beat Spain, we can beat everyone. A part maybe France, that would be honestly a hard nut to crack. Spain will be our real test. Let's see what happens.
Give us a semi vs germany or a final vs england and we are going to be just fine
Why not include Spinazzola in the squad??
Forza italia
Statue of Spaletti at the Colosseum = Gold
I’ve been following Italy since the era of Rivera, Mazzola, Feketi etc, definitely different times now, I’m not that optimistic this time around, Italy always starts slow, if they get their 3 points on game one they will make it out the group, otherwise dead last.
I think with this group we will go out on the first round , IF? We are lucky we might go to the quarter final , unfortunately this is the way it is with this Italian squad
Spaghetti mafia 🍝
We need to bring back that song😂
Lol it needs to be revamped now
Zaniolo is out of euros injured. Who are his possible replacements in the squad?
Shouldn't have been in the squad in the first place. Hasn't done enough this season to be included. Maybe Gnonto might get in now.
Orsolini!!
Orsolini or Gnonto
Thank god. Hes terrible
With the season Zaniolo had the only people who think he deserves a place are Premier League fans. Orsolini has had a better season, Politano and Chiesa even as they struggled this season have done much better than Zaniolo. It's not exactly a complex exercise to replace Zaniolo.
Our strikers turn off in the Cup events, idk what their problem is. We need to up the offense big time
Czechs have been to Two World Cup finals, won the euros, been to a further final and came third twice ha. I wouldnt be talking about them like they're some minnow
If you don't know, remember that in the last 2 Euros, the defending champions didn't get past the Round of 16. This is another handicap for Italy. They must get better results in the Group of Death. I think Italy will definitely reach the quarterfinal this time.
Agreed but the group stage wont be easy
@@MichaelTalksFootball1 Italy's realistic challenge for that group would be a victory vs Albania, but that wouldn't be easy, too, since Albania had some kind of unpredictable tactic with Sylvinho (even though they will most likely come last in the group). Some Albanian players in Serie A might give Italy a real test. Spain is still a big game, and they will most likely lose if Spain had Rodri. Last, but not least, Croatia, although with aging Modric, didn't lose to Italy right now (both friendlies and major tournaments).
I hope not Italy crashing out of the group stage again like in Euro 2004 and World Cup 2010
Back
To back no world
Cup now back to back euro winners and zaniolo out again just like last time lol
Scamacca
Raspadori-Retegui
Cristante-Barella-Jorginho-Pellegrini
Buongiorno-Bastoni-Di Lorenzo
Donnaruma
Forza Italia....
I think orsolini deserves to start or a chance because it seems he is very underrated
Hopefully his selected
Average player...
I Believe in our Paesano Spaletti..!
Incompetent. Saying that Italy doesn't perform in WC disqualifies you from talking about football. 6 finals, 4 WC. Yes, they've been absent from the last WC but you make it sound like they never performed well. Cricket is the sport for you.
Relax, I thought the same as you but he corrected himself and did say that they are 4-time wc champs and one of the greatest ever.
SPOGLIETTI WILL BE THE SCAPE GOAT :)
Quarter-finals is exactly what Italy deserve. It would be a normal tournament in contrast to their usual win or bust form.
Just a good performance!
Maybe yes, just like in 2016
Italy is number 1
My 26:
Donnarumma, Provadel, Vicario . . . . . Acerbi, Bastoni, Bellanovo, Ruggeri or Cambiaso, Darmian, Di Lorenzo, Dimarco, Mancini, Scalvini . . . . . Barella, Cristante, Colpani, Frattesi, Jorginho, Locatelli, Pellegrini . . . . . Chiesa, Gnonto, Orsolini, Politano, Raspadori, Retegui, Scamacca.
Back-up: Carnesschi, Meret; Buongiorno, Calafiori, Cambiaso or Ruggeri; Bonaventura, Bove, Fabbian, Pessina; Immobile, Pinamonti, Zaccagni.
Unavailable: Spinazzola, Udogie; Tonali, Zaniolo; Berardi.
Napoli 🔥 💙
Retegui is the KEY!!!!
They won the world cup 4 times and in 2006 which was in Germany
ITALY HAVE TO PLAY WITH CONFIDENCE AND PLAY TO YOUR STRENGTHS, AS WE DO NOT HAVE WORLD CLASS FOOTBALLERS LIKE WE USE TO HAVE OR FORWARDS.WE HAVE NEVER WON ANY TOURNAMENT WITH WORLD CLASS FORWARDS, EXCEPT FOR 1982 WORLD CUP IN SPAIN WHEN ROSSI CAME ALIVE IN THE KNOCK OUT STAGERS, SO IT HAS TO BE A TEAM EFFORT FOR ME, LIKE THE LAST EURO 2020, WHERE WE PRESSED NEARLY EVERY OPPONET AND CONTROLED MOST GAMES, TO WIN THE SEM-IFINAL AND FINAL ON PENALTIES, SO FOR ME MORE OF THE SAME, AS THEN WE COULD GO FAR.
Italy will be strong in 2026.
If Spalletti does go ahead with a back 3, this lineup could do very well (3421) - Donnarumma; Calafiori, Bastoni, Buongiorno; Dimarco, Jorginho, Barella, Bellanova/Cambiaso; Chiesa, Pellegrini/Fratessi; Scamacca.
Personally I would rather see Italy using a 433 because it will getthe best out of many players, starting with with Chiesa - Donnarumma; DiMarco, Bastoni, Buongiourno, Bellanova; Jorginho, Barella, Pellegrini; Chiesa, Scamacca, Orsolini
during the tournament it is likely we will see both modules, depending on the opponents.
With the 433 you let yourself be attacked much more than a 3421/352.
It depends on how much Spalletti wants to risk it.
He didn't have the time that Roberto Mancini had to instill his ideas in the heads of the players, barely drafts... perhaps.
I assume that the 4-man defense at the moment is more of an option during the match rather than a 1st minute option
Damn I will miss watching Insigne
They've won 4 WCs!
Runners up twice!
I know scalvini is young but he Plays alot for atalanta.
Scalvini aint starting ahead of Bastoni his definitely one for the future!
@@MichaelTalksFootball1 he plays on the right. Darmian provides experience but in space he is a liability
You are aware that Italy won 4 world
Cups only second to Brazil right?
If Italy play scammaca then they could have a decent tournament but im not convinced by italy.
Scamacca has been amazing recently
Italy and Germany two of the Top European sides with history that need to reprove their position....Italy probably needs new players to start stepping up... Germany I think has the talent but the chemistry hmmm 🤔 not sure.
love the jersey! Forza napoli
I think the squad will be
Donnarumma
Darmian
Acerbi
Bastoni
Di Lorenzo
Jorginho
Barella
Pellegrini
Dimarco
Chiesa

Group B will finish with Spain, Italy & Croatia on 5 points each. The question is, who will put the most past Albania?
Albania are no push overs

I don’t see them going deep at the Euros
This guy a joke he says that italy dont perform at world cup they have won 4 w c from 6 finals. Htf can you say that.
2020 Italy was a dark horse. Incredible win streak. 35 i think. That squad was not a good team for italy. This team is even worse in my opinion. We havent produced a world class roster since 2010s and that squad was from the 90s basically. Italian football isnt even the same anymore. We are unrecognizable. That euro win was truly incredible but i dont see this team doing much.
I admit im barely a casual but these names i dont know. I love donna. I like chiesa but he shouldn't be a starter on a world class squad. Shows our lack of development.
What happened to our great defenders and midfielders??? This is depressing. That kid that gambled is great though

Italy shows up when they're not rated highly. No one expected 2006 or 2021 either.
2006 they had a great team and 2021 they were on a crazy unbeaten streak
Any Team that has Buffon, Zambrotta, Nesta, Cannavaro, Gattuso, De Rossi, Del Piero, Totti ...can only be rated the Greatest Italian Team only second to the 2002-Team that also had Maldini and Christian Vieri in it. ...(So...basically, you do not know what you are talking about.)
“They might not be the greatest in World Cups”? Look, judging by what you followed that statement up with it’s clear you get it. Why not just say “Italy in the 21st century has been a mixed bag”. Nuff said. Let’s not get it twisted, even in Italy’s worst era only Spain has won more silverware in the last 20 years. Italy wins two trophies in the last 20, during a shit period…England wins 0 since 1966. Belgium wins 0. Netherlands wins 0. France has arguably been the best national team of the 21st century, Italy’s won the same amount of trophies as them 🤷🏻♂️. And yes it’s awful they’ve not made two WCs in a row. No excuses. But pump the breaks on the hyperbole. Stats still in Italy’s favour.
Ofc as I eluded Italy are one of the greatest international teams in the world but this century other then the 2006 world cup and 2021 euros its been poor and ofc making the final in 2012
@@MichaelTalksFootball1 lol But even how you say “other than a World Cup and a Euro cup win” (not to mention finalists in 2000 and 2012), as if there are a whole bunch of other Nations who’ve won more than 2 trophies in the last 24 years. France, Spain and Italy. That’s it. I think people get carried away with recency bias. Case in point, Italy was called trash going into Euro 2020, and won it. So what most pundits do is ride teams like England, Belgium, Portugal, Croatia, Turkey and now Albania. Why? Because of form and “talent”. But who are you going to bet on in a tournament big game when the chips are down, Italy or that pathetic list? 4 finals in 24 years. England: 2 in 58 years. A pattern emerges if you step back enough. No one rates Italian players, that’s also a massive problem when trying to predict their success. But everyone on Albania is apparently a baller 🤦🏻♂️
Italy is one of the greatest Teams but they never beat Croatia. Hope it stays that way.
Retegui over Scamacca at least for the first game. Retegui has proven himself for the azzurri time and time again. If he chokes, throw on Scamacca and see what he can do.
Italy or Portugal
Zaniolo is injured he can't start anyway 😅
missing Udogie is a massive blow, Dimarco is massively overrated. Either way, keepers and defense are really good. Midfield and strikers on the other hand are weak at the highest level. Barella would have to turn into prime Gullit to make this midfield work
Croatia and Spain to advance imho. Portugal, France or England to win it, and Georgia as a dark horse team
Dimarco is good
