keep on not caring. Italy care. You may not. You obviously arent in tune with football.fantasiafan said:Italy still won the World Cup.....so who cares if they dont make the Euros...enjoy the glory for four years.
Wow! Talking about putting quotes out there I never remotely said!franky66 said:You think Brazilians don't care because they have the most World Cups? They still wanted the last one BADLY.

Aren't these games home and away? If so if Italy loses the next they can still easily qualify.gixxer750 said:I can assure you Big E. The Italians will be very upset. As far as pathetic; that's pretty strong. Italy was very unlucky against Lithuania and France just beat them outright. Italy hasn't won in Paris since 1956. Anyway; there are a shit load of games left but they better win the next one against Ukraine. We'll definately talk after that one because if they lose that one there is no way back!! As for that quote buddy made about who cares about the Euros. He's one of those guys that pulls his flag out every 4 years and dosen't have a clue about the game. Talk to you after Oct 7. Big day for Italians. Make or break!!!
In 1982-84, World champions Italy accumulated 5 pts in 8 games, with 1 win, 3 draws and 4 losses in a group with Romania, Sweden, Cyprus and Czechoslovakia. They finished 4th and of course were not part of Euro84 won by France 2-0 against Spain.luckyjackson said:What are you guys freaking about? Italy will do what it needs to when it needs to. It's silly to talk of Italy not qualifying at almost any point, but at the beginning of the campaign? Take a pill.
By the way, it was a very pretty game. Not as great as the weekend's Brazil beating on Argentina though. THAT was a thing of beauty, especially considering that Argentina had nothing to be ashamed of.
And oh yeah....exactly what is it with zee Germans? 13? They just have no sense of moderation do they?
Enzo Bearzot coached the Azzurri for a decade (1976 - 86) but his final four years were anything but stellar. Lippi resigned immediately after the World Cup so as not to follow in his predecessors footsteps.Benhur said:In 1982-84, World champions Italy accumulated 5 pts in 8 games, with 1 win, 3 draws and 4 losses in a group with Romania, Sweden, Cyprus and Czechoslovakia.
