Yeah it would be better with him there, but well if its what Gentile decides, then we have to go with it, I just hope Gentile never becomes NT coach

I thought Palermo owned Piccolo? Are eurosport showing these games?

Deano · Jun 3, 2003

Yes they are on Eurosport and the clubs are who they are currently at and not who they are owned by, Cassani for example Im sure is owned by Juve but aint sure. Pepe is owned by us

romafan53 · Jun 3, 2003

I know, i meant playing for them, i could be thinking of someone else though. Pepe is quite good, Bovo's our too aint he?

Deano · Jun 3, 2003

FIGC have said Piccolo plays for Lucchese for the last year so I doubt they are wrong for that long

I also think hes been or still is a Juve primavera!

romafan53 · Jun 3, 2003

Fair enough, im confusing him with someone so..

Pasquale OUT, Modesto IN

After losing Pasquale, forced to return home after suffering an injury to his left knee, Gentile has called the Palermo defender, Francesco Modesto who will join the group on Sunday in Finland, after the league season match Lecce-Palermo. This is the only problem that the Under 21 has had since it began its training campo in Fiuggi while waiting to leave tomorrow morning for Finland.

On the under 19 Italian team Pazzini seems to have alot of goals(4-5) does anyone have any other info on him. He seems to be talented, but i dont know much about him, if anyone has info that would be great.

SUNDAY, THE ITALIANS
DEBUT AGAINST
THE UNITED STATES

It's tournament time for the younger teams. The Under 16 team coached by Antonio Rocca is getting ready for the annual Mundialito, now in its tenth edition, that will be played in Salerno starting Saturday, June 14 to Friday, June 20. Italy, Germany, the United States, France, Japan and Finland will participate in this event.
The Italians will make their debut on Saturday, June 14 at 9:30 pm at the Arechi stadium against the United States: if the team wins against the American, they will play against Germany on Tuesday, at 6:00 pm, while if they lose they will play against the German team on Monday, the 16th at 8:30 pm at the Arechi stadium.
Thursday, June 19, starting at 10:00 am the finals for the fifth and sixth place will be held, followed by the match for the third and fourth place and then for the first and second place.

The head coach Antonio Rocca has called
the following players for this occasion:

Goalkeepers: Consigli (Atalanta), Russo (Genoa);
Defenders: Brivio (Atalanta), De Silvestri (Lazio), Pierro (Salernitana), Politti (Udinese), Rinaldi (Atalanta), Soffiato (Padova);
Midfielders: Conean (Venezia), Della Rocca (Bologna), Mandorino (Lecce), Paonessa (Bologna), Piazza (Milan), Savi (Parma);
Forwards: Giovinco (Juventus), Lupoli (Parma), Pepe (Parma), Rossi (Parma).

You knwo what is weird?

Della Rocca (Bologna) - is this the Under 19 stars brother? any bologna fans know? Rinaldi (Atalanta) could this be another brother of the older Rinaldi who went froM Atalanta to Roma back to Atalanta and Pepe - Roma own one in the Under 20's but this probably has no relation!

Anyway, good luck to them!
