Here from the FIGC is Prandelli's first call up list for the Azzurri friendly against Ivory Coast (the game's Wed. Aug 10 at Upton Park):

QUOTE
Portieri: Marchetti (Cagliari), Sirigu (Palermo), Viviano (Bologna);
Difensori: Antonini (Milan), Astori (Cagliari), Bonucci (Juventus), Cassani (Palermo), Chiellini (Juventus), Lucchini (Sampdoria), Molinaro (Stoccarda), Motta (Juventus);
Centrocampisti: De Rossi (Roma), Lazzari (Cagliari), Marchisio (Juventus), Montolivo (Fiorentina), Palombo (Sampdoria), Pepe (Juventus);
Attaccanti: Amauri (Juventus), Balotelli (Inter), Borriello (Milan), Cassano (Sampdoria), Quagliarella (Napoli), Rossi (Villarreal).


Lots of new names in there, including Antonini.

No Pirlo (first time in ages for that). And both problem children (Cassano and Balotelli) are included.

CIV 1- ITA 0

Despite the loss I think this Italian team looks head over heels better than their WC counterparts. I really like this team....and I really like Rossi. If you add some of the big names to the roster that we're missing (i.e. Pirlo) they could be really solid.

Only if they stop fielding all-gobbi backlines - who were again at fault for the goal (both cbs and motta at fault for the goal conceded).

That said, Prandelli's Azzurri get a fins up. At least they're generally enjoyable to watch. And +1 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cookie.gif) each to the two problem children (Cassano and Balotelli) who not only sang the anthem full out but who also both played rather well.

You'd kinda expect at least Cassano to sing the anthem though, wouldn't you?
