Tbf to FIFA they increased the squad size from 22 to 23 so teams would pick 3 GK's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Two most promising Italian players of the new generation are on Inter's books. Lippi wouldn't give either of them so much as a thought because his bias is unparralled. (Not I think he's wrong for giving Balotelli the boot like ) Btw, the goalscorer tonight also came through Inter's system. Yeah, 1 start and 2 off the bench. And didn't they sign him as an 18 year old anyway, so he's hardly a product of their youth system. I don't really like Balotelli, I know he's a decent player but he just doesn't seem to have his head screwed on the right way round. I stand by my point though, Inter are hardly doing anything to help the production of the next generation of Italian players, and if they get Benitez it will only get worse. Very good point. To say Bonucci was an Inter product is mis-leading, he was not signed at a young age like an Arsenal product. He was 18 and joined from a lower league side. As for Inter's production line and their contribution to the youth of Italy I have to say that 'International' Milan live up to their name, people forget they were started as an offset to AC to allow for foreign players to play football. Balotelli and Santon are hard to argue with they were signed at very young ages Balotelli was 15 I think and Santon was even younger. So you can say yes these are Inter products because they trained them during their most important years imo (15-18). However Balotelli has yet to produce for Italy and has been erratic for Inter, Santon I like a lot and I was upset he did not make the squad. It would be nice to see Inter bring through more of their own talent, in some ways they seem like a Chelsea or a Man Utd preferring to buy talent with potential instead of developing what they have. Juve on the other hand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juve on the other hand. Exactly, historically Inter have always been built on foreign players. However they've still contributed more to the national team than Milan have in history: Milan: PLAYERS: 82 GAMES: 1170 SCORERS: 30 GOALS: 107 CAPTAINS: 11 CAPTAINED GAMES: 138 Inter: PLAYERS: 96 GAMES: 1343 SCORERS: 39 GOALS: 201 CAPTAINS: 18 CAPTAINED GAMES: 183 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKSC Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Santon is class on FM. He's first choice right back in my Italy side that won WC2010 and has qualified at a canter for Euro 2012. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do that would the substitute rules be void? ie they can both use the whole squads if they wished. Cant see any other reason to do it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, unless you're over the age of 27 you'll find it hard to make the Italy team. Its like some strange inner Free Masons thing where you have to know a secret handshake, or Maldini, to get in.
