FIFA Ranking- 5
Group F
Lately I have been re-thinking putting Italy this high, I think they are too old and slow to do much this year. Although you never know, last World Cup no one thought much of Italy and they ended up winning the whole thing, so I guess I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt only because they are the reigning champions. Another thing they have going for them is being in one of the easiest groups, barring disaster they will make it to the second round and make some magic. Leaving some of their more skilled players off the team I think will hurt them in the end and their age will show after the group stage leaving them to relinquish the trophy, maybe i should have ranked them lower, oh well.
