CNNSI.com - 2002 World Cup - Injury woes plague World Cup teams in :: It should be a time when the national team coaches try to put the finishing lineup of Christian Vieri and Vincenzo Montella, with Montella's AS Roma http://images.si.com/soccer/world/2002/world_cup/news/2002/03/25/friendlies_rdp_ap/HOME | The way Montella has been playing, he should be called to the National all the time. I hope Lippi realizes that he could be a good part in the National Team set-up. The National Team needs an explosive player like him at the moment. Lippi better have him in the squad for the friendly vs. Russia on Feb. 9th. What does everyone think?
what about pippo inzaghi, he was in great form last year but couldnt make it to euros because of an injury i think. he never seems to be called up to international competitions. i havent seen him playing for italy in ages.
alessandro del piero is the worst italian player to ever play for italy
That is why Del Piero was once one of the best if not the best players in Italy. Don't screw up forums. No one wants to hear your complaining. You don't know crap about soccer if you think this.
Montella is a goal-scoring machine, HE SHOULD BE STARTED ON NATIONAL TEAM
Pippo's injury took a turn for the worse, and he's still out of action at Milan. They're hoping he'll make a return in the next few weeks or so. If he can come back and return to form, I wouldn't rule him out of the national team picture - but that's a big "if".

Vieri and DP on the NT. No sorry i really could care less about both of them. Bring up some young passionate players who never were on the NT before instead of some washed up super stars.
amen to that.
Along the same lines I voted for the last option in this poll. There's over a yr before the next world cup.
I say Gilardino and Toni are the future, give them a full calendar year of international play to further their development. I think they both have attributes that Montella can't bring. Montella's a nice forward on a hot streak but not the long term guy. It's not an anti-roma stance, since I would play Toni up top with Cassano and Totti behind him....
Italys strikers should be : Montella, Cassano, Miccoli, Di Natale and Di Vaio not Inzaghi, Vieri, Del Piero and other players way past their prime.

get the ******** out of here and go parade in ur german forums, dont curse italy by saying DEL PIERO in the italy forums.
vieri is doing well right now, better than cassano, in fact. Montella is just in good form in the meantime, remember when italy tried him in the NT...WHAT AN EMBARASSMENT THAT WAS!
There should be no doubt about Montella. FYI, here are the top Italian goal-scorers in Serie A so far this year:
Montella (14)
Totti (10)
Esposito, Lucarelli (9)
Gilardino (8)
Caracciolo, Del Piero, Di Canio, Flachi, Iaquinta, Miccoli, Vieri (6)
Di Michele, Di Napoli, Langella, Toni, Zampagna, Zola (5)
I say we give Di Natale a chance because the one game he did play which was a friendly last year he came up big. I really like this guy now
Vieri and DP on the NT. No sorry i really could care less about both of them. Bring up some young passionate players who never were on the NT before instead of some washed up super stars.
Italy forwards should be...
Miccoli
Toni
Totti
Montella
Cassano
Di Natale
Di Viao
Gilardinho (sp?)
Zola, he's 38 but really on-form right now
The way Di Natale has been playing, he deserves a call-up. He could become a great player. But we mention Di Natale, we have to mention the whole Udinese front-line deserves a call-up...

replace Di Vaio or Miccoli with Toni and im happy.
maybe add zola for a friendly.
Di Natale scored a "Golazzo" today...he should get a call, Montella scored on a bicycle kick, he sould also get a call...

Please don't say the D-Word... ;)
(Del Piero)
I dunno Vieri has been explosive himself too. HEs been gettin equalizer goals for inter lately. Hes been doing all the small things and that is helping his reputation right now.
There's no doubt.
He is playing out-of-this-world! He's scoring goals like they are going out of style.
He may be over 30 but age should just be a number when you're playing thsi well.
Questions may arise in LT over his production but on current form he's on FYAH!
(PS mritalian1210, Daniele De Rossi is a middie!)
At the moment Vieri, Del Piero, Totti, Cassano, Gilardino, Miccoli and Montella should be the forwards selected to NT.
(Antonio Langella and Mauro Esposito are wingers to me but should also be included!)
Luca Toni, Marco Di Vaio and Bernardo Corradi needs to rediscover their form!
Definitely, why wouldn't you put him on the NT. He is tied for the goal scoring in Serie A (without scoring on pks) I really don't see why can't they start him in a meaning less game with russia and see what he does. There are a number of young itaian fowards. like toni, cassano, De Rossi, and Gilardino.
I don't see why can't include Montella in there.
