The former Italian international striker commented on the impact Italy has had on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 along with the performances of De Rossi and Balotelli in the Euros.
The Italian was thoroughly impressed by the performance of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 vice-captain. He felt that
the Giallorossi midfielder added another dimension to the Italian defence and made for a more coherent attacking approach due to his driving force from the back into the opposition half.
He lauded the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926 even further. The former West Ham manager was quoted to have said:
"I liked De Rossi between the two centre-backs. I liked how he launched play from deep. Daniele helps the team cover more distance.”
When quizzed on the impact Roy Hodgson has made to the English side, the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 player had nothing but respect for the former Udinese manager. He reflected on his past experiences, and stated that he had first-hand experience
of facing Hodgson’s sides. He reflected on the balance between attack and defence provided by England's full-backs and the midfield drive from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Gerrard-c34196.
The Three Lions had always had problems in international tournaments but managed to top their group under Roy Hodgson; ahead of Laurent Blanc’s French outfit. While reflecting on Hodgon’s impact on the national team, he was quoted
to have said:
"You see a lot of Hodgson's influence [in his teams]. When I played against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567, [I saw] that wherever he coached, his philosophy was organisation, order and self-denial: a 'sacchiano' in the sense of the word."
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mario-Balotelli-c23937 has cut a controversial figure throughout this tournament and having coached the volatile striker, Zola was asked of his opinion on the star, and he went on to state that he needs to improve, but also mentioned
that the striker has come a long way as well, he went on to state:
"... I trained the Under 21s and I can confirm that we have not yet seen the best of Mario.”
There has been heavy debate whether the Manchester City striker would be starting the match against the Three Lions. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 advised Prandelli to start with the erratic striker, as Italy will be a stronger side in his presence.
