    f**k you lippi …totti is the best italian player ever
    without totti you will have zero creativity in your team!!!!!! you are are just a stupid old man !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. Dinho

    This is how i feel about Dungas decision to leave out Ronaldinho. Brazil needs creativity.

    I seriously can’t believe that Lippi wouldn’t want Totti to participate in the world cup because quote on quote he said “I don’t need totti” Bull shit! I hope Italy does well in the world cup don’t get me wrong… but without Totti your right my friend, Italy has no creativity. F**king blows.

    I think the squad looks nice. Totti is too old now and has had a lot of injuries. He’s just not the same player he was in 2006. Plus after that Balotelli incident I was highly doubting he was gonna go to the 2010 World Cup. Don’t get me wrong though, Totti is a hell of a player.

    And Lippi a stupid man? He won the World Cup in 2006.. That sure doesn’t make him stupid lol.

    hey AHMAD, according to your name, you are a stupid muslim
    :) no offense but there are so many of you that, what’s one more?
    you are ignorant and i forgive you for that.

    from totti’s remarks i read online i have deduced that he should not be in the italian team after all.
    he is NOT patriotic enough but rather an egocentric.

    AHMAD, being the fair person that i am i need to retract my comment to you about Totti and i shall flagellate myself for the error.
    it is TONI who i meant to say.

    i do not find Toni’s comments patriotic after finding out he did not make the team. on the other hand, i find giuseppe rossi very patriotic and i wish him the best..

    a good luck wish to all nations!
