| Want Italy to win, but think Spain will actually manage to reach a semi-final this time, without Pirlo and Gattuso Italy are going to be lost in the midfield. |

Italy will win!!
Missing Pirlo isn't a huge as people think. YES he has great spot kick ability, but he doesn't add much more than a pedestrian presence at mid-field. He's no De Rossi... And plus Grosso has a great foot thats not too much of a drop off from Pirlo, so he can take duties there...
Gattuso is great going forward but he's inconsistent with his D. I if you can move in a guy like Camoranesi who is just as quick, but is much more scrappy and I don't think you've lost anything there..
Plus, the team is pumped. Italy is most dangerous after they get a taste of winning in any major tournament. Traditionally they start off slow, but once they get going, their momentum is hard to stop. Buffon has been great in goal and every game Luca gets 1/2 inch closer to actually getting those headers on goal. I think this will be the game where he finally finds the net. |
