    Top 5 MIDFIELDERS I would say no. Top 5 DEFENSIVE mids (I know, some dont consider him to be the holding mid, but I think he sort of plays that role) I would probably say yes. BTW, Rock, why the hate on Yaya:D.....dude is probably the best right now, he or Essien??

    Defensive mids in my eyes:
    1. Yaya Toure (Essien is probably a bit better, but Im biased)
    2. Michael Essien
    3. Xabi Alonso
    4. Daniele De Rossi
    5. Cambiasso (he was tremendous for Inter this year, and of course retarded Maradona left him off)

    Just missing would be Michael Carrick and Sergio Busquets

    If you are ranking Mids, De Rossi doesnt crack my top ten, but would be in the next 10 or so.

    Honestly, why is it hard for some to acknowledge this kids talent? There's absolutely no question within the football media and through his peers that De Rossi is one of the best in the world.
    Yeah along with his typical Italian demeanor and also being a bitch like the majority of Italian players. I'm not knocking his talent....he's a great player, but I'm not sure I'd put him in the top 5. If he is that good.....why still playing for Roma?
    rock_knutne;375488 wrote:LMAO...................Diarra, Toure and Modric? There's only four guys on that list I'll agree with, the other's couldn't hold De Rossi's jock. He's in just about every single football publication, magazine, website or blog's top 10, some top 5.

    Strikers: Gilardino, Rossi: Believe it or not, Italy will play with two forwards. Gilardino has been good, Rossi could have a coming out party and you still have Iaquinta who can score.

    The Azzurri are a little older but still have world class players who know how to win.

    Not sure when the Italian squad was released in relation to your post, but Rossi was cut by the Italians. I really dont hate the guy for going against the USA, but I sure as hell am not sad he got left out when he and Jozy would be a LETHAL combo for the US of A.

    I thought Gabby Bonglahor didnt even make the 30 man. Maybe im thinking of something else???

    LMAO.......bitch? Jealous aren't we?

    Like Totti (a life long Roma fan and player), De Rossi was born in Rome. He's willing to take a home town discount to stay with Roma, Real Madrid have offered him big time money.

    It was before Lippi released the 23 man squad. I'm shocked Rossi was left off.

    yes, and my and and internet name suck each other...you and I both know the italians are old and won't amount to anything in the world cup for their standards.

    This link cracked me up. Not the people on it, or even the dudes opinion. But he had Xavi and Andres Iniesta as honorable mention....??? I was so flabbergasted by that, but then I did the "vote" and saw that 27% have Xavi as the best (more than any of the other options), so I felt better.
  • Automatik
    lol jealous? Hardly. You post those photos like I should give a shit. HELLO....I support the US, but I will root for others. I respect Italy and their game.....its just they act like bitches, and YOU can't even deny that. If you do...well I guess you just aren't as knowledgeable about the game as I thought.

    I like your homerism towards Italia though.....USA needs more fans like that....maybe we'd get somewhere. :(

    Anyone catch the England match? I heard they looked like mud!

    England has looked like SHIT the last two games (vs Japan and Mexico) and really should have lost both, particularly the Japan game. Of course, this is perfect timing for them to go apeshit and score 5 on us...

    No matter what, people will always hate on the Italians. Especially Americans, because their style of soccer is not exciting enough for them, and they can't appreciate the beauty of the strategy. All Italy does is win, and will continue to win, but people will hate and continue to make up excuses. I remember last World Cup some people tried to tell me that Italy was lucky to win the world cup. Luck? 1. You can't win a World Cup just from luck, 2. Italy only gave up two goals (an own goal, and a BS pk). Sounds more like domination to me.
