The Azzurri chief insists that while he knows his final selection, performing players can change his mind; hails Andrea Pirlo as a champion.
Cesare Prandelli has insisted that although he has the Italy 23 in his mind, hardworking players can always change his selection decisions.
The Azzurri chief has already named his 32-man preliminary list for Euro 2012, and training for the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003, Torino and Paris Saint-Germain are yet to arrive.
Prandelli insisted that although he has his final selection in his head, he can always make changes after re-evaluating his squad.
The former Fiorentina manager insisted that it is important to provide an atmosphere of passion for all the players, and stated that his goal is to build an Italy side that will be able to handle any opposition or situation during
the upcoming tournament.
The Azzurri coach stated that he wants Italy to exhibit all the hard work that has been done on the team, and show that they are a united group of players.
While talking to the press, the 54-year-old said:
“I have the final 23 in my head, but everyone in the squad has the ability to change my mind. We have to create an environment of enthusiasm. There is a desire to create a generous side. That way we will be able to take on any
situation without problems. I want my Italy to show how much work we have already done. I want my side to prove that they are a team.”
The most pressing issue for Prandelli will be to find the right attacking combination for his team, after http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giuseppe-Rossi-c15027 is set to miss the tournament due to
injury.
The Azzurri manager insisted that although Antonio Cassano and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Balotelli-c23937 are available, he may still opt for other strikers. The tactician added that he will look to play the team in such a way, so as to get the best value
from his forwards.
Prandelli concluded that Andrea Pirlo is a champion, but insisted that he cannot base everything around him, as that will make the team very predictable. The Azzurri coach insisted that he has many midfielders in his team whom
he can count on.
