I bet many of you guys are the same people who kept raising all those Del Piero-Ronaldo topics at the beginning of the season, say Del Piero is so much better. Well, Del Piero has proved once again that he does NOT deserve such a glorious position as attacker for the Italian national team.
In WC98, he took playing time from the magician Baggio and did NOTHING! Baggio was playing superbly and working well with Vieri; Del Piero was a bum. And again, in Euro 2000, Del Piero was a bum.
When will Italian football officials learn? Some players are meant for national glory. Others, like Del Piero, are not. Italy is a rich football nation, ranking with historically great teams like Brazil, Argentina, Holland, Germany. It is time for Italy to find a new attacker.
