Italy - Yes and No
Yes
The most experienced team in the world cup. All of Italy national team player has seen it all.
half of the line up to this world cup had already celebrate a world championship in 2006.
Italy national team has always showed an iron defense and solid tactic game which is very hard to break. Another major advantage is the goalkeeper, Gianluigi Buffon, the best goalkeeper in the past ten years and also the most stable one.
No
This is the oldest team in the world cup 2010. Most of the players are beyond their peak.
When your best players are both above the age of 30 you got a big problem, the stamina and sharpness is not what it used to be. We should add to all this that the hunger and ambition of the player are low, and we get an old, satiated team.
Bottom line – Italy will finish their journey already in the first stage.
