Italy have all the firepower and guards to win the Euro 2004.
WIth the likes of Christian Vieri, Alessandro Del Piero and
Francesco Totti upfront, followed by backup of Fabrizio Miccoli,
Marco DI Vaio, Bernado Corradi and young talent Antonio Cassano,
who is tounted to be a huge impact at the Euro 2004 , no doubts the
Azzurri have the best forwards upfront only for France to be
comparable.
Its defence is considered as the best defence in the world with
world best center-back Alessandro Nesta and captain Fabio Cannavaro
both confirmed starters for the Azzurri.
Their midfield is a well-balanced of defensive and offensive
players with AC Milan's pair Gennaro Gattuso and Andrea Pirlo,
Juve's Argentine-born Mauro Camoranesi and Cristiano Zanetti from
Inter.
However, the midfield had to link to Totti or Del Piero for their
build-up in attack in order to create attacking chances for Vieri.
Their well-known counter-attack strategy is one of the world's most
deadly. Trapattoni may likely changes Italy's usual defensive
approaches to the game with a more offensive and attacking-prone
formation due to his multi-talent squad at his disposal.
Conclusion: Don't rule out the Italians in this competition. Forza
Italia.
