The Official Group E Thread (Italy, Czech, Ghana, USA)

[Sweet & Tender Hooligan]

I AM NOT underestimating the states i think they a great team i just feel the Czech Republic and Italy will be a lil 2 strong 4 them. They'll go out on goal difference or some shit.....

[Bomb-A®]

Anyway Italy's team will have a lot of injured/out of condition players: Del Piero

is del piero injured?...didnt he play italy's last friendly?...i hope he does well this world cup...he'll prolly start every match on the bench tho



peace

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Anyway Italy's team will have a lot of injured/out of condition players: Del Piero, Totti, Gattuso, Nesta and Zambrotta are all out for at least a game. 5 starters.

Well I think its more 4 starters, cause Del Piero wouldn't play unless Totti wasn't anyway.

I expect Italy and Czech Republic to get through this group. USA fluked their way to the Semis last time, but will have no such luck this time around me thinks.

^^ usa didnt make the semis...they were beaten by germany in the QF i believe



peace

I predict a 2-1 loss for the US tomorrow.

Just put £40 on Italy winning. They better come up with the goods!

It shouldn't be too hard for them against Ghana

but weak teams usually don't get the best of good teams, look at Sweden and Portugal

[Intriago33]

Lippi better not start Iaquinta over Gilardino.. I don't think he will, but there's speculation.
can't wait for the game 

[Antonio_]

This is the formation Lippi will 99.9% use tonight.

Buffon
Zaccardo, Nesta, Cannavaro, Grosso
Perrotta, Pirlo, De Rossi
Totti
Gilardino, Toni

Camoranesi and Del Piero benched, Gattuso and Zambrotta injured.

I like it. I'm positive. 2-0 win for Italy.
