Its been a turbulent few months for the Italian national team, on and off the field.A poor string of results, numerous injuries to key players and rumours ofdisarraywithin the dre sing room havent giventhe supporters much to shout about; but come 7.30pm on Monday, all will be forgotten as the four-time champions begin their title defence against Paraguay in Cape Town.Lets face it, Its hardly been the ideal preparation for a side with everything to prove on the world stage. Recent friendly match results including the match againstSwitzerland,have only served to fuel the pe simistic minds of the Italian nationals who Anthony Miller Jersey love nothing more than to partake in the nations favourite pastime of criticising their beloved Azzurri. A squad that is rapidly ageing, a lack of creativity in addition to the injury of Andrea Pirlo have mounted pre sure and expectation onto the shoulders of the few key players.It is not yet clear just how long Italy will be without the beloved Pirlo, this may force a change in formation/tactics. Fiorentina man Riccardo Montolivo looks set to start in place of Pirlo, after being given the nod against Switzerland. In order to make full use of their key men, the trio of De Ro si, Claudio Marchisio and Antonio Di Natale played behind either Alberto Gilardino or Giampaolo Pazzini in the 4-2-3-1 would be using the 3 midfielders currently in the best form. It would also leave Gennaro Gattuso andMontolivo to do the running in midfield, giving cover to any of the questionable pairings picked at centre-back.

They will also be aware of the need to start their campaign well. Take Germany 2006 as an example; their first group opponents were England. There they demonstrated good climatisation as well as attacking presence, only going down 1-0, thanks to anearly own goal. In a group that iscompleted by New Zealand and Slovakia, Paraguay will feel they have every chance off making it to the next round.From an Italian point of view the time for complaint and hindsight is nearly at an end, Roy Lopez Jersey and all that is left is for the fans to support their team through whatever happens in the next four weeks. The squad(and manager) have the expectations of all of Calcio resting on their shoulders andin what will inevitably be the final world cup for many of the Italy players, the fans can be sure that they will want to finish in style and will no doubt have their hearts set on defending the title to equal Brazils record of five world titles, starting with a win in Cape Town tomorrow evening.
