Wishlist Daniele de Rossi

Ironically he was terrible, along with all of Italy's midfield, up until that goal. Second best to everything on the pitch.

I was just gonna ask. I popped the game on as he scored and was wondering how he's been otherwise.

Made some stupid tackles before hand. But the entire Italy team was a bit shocking first half.

Thats why i posted a wankfest was incoming after him scoring even though he is having a mediocre game.

Italy literally had 1 shot before the goal. Their midfield was completely overrun by Japan for the first 40 mins.

Is he one of those midfielders that get at least one card every game?

[NiclasCFC 2,582]

What a pass!

That pass.

Japan are so unlucky! Deserve to get something from the game.

[Waterfall 893]

Some good moments, but Italy's midfield was thoroughly outplayed for majority of the game.

I heard Aquilani and Pirlo played terribly? In that case its unfair to expect De Rossi to make amends on his own...

this is only a glorified friendly. no reason to overrate the significance of de Rossi's game with regard to his qualities as a player. I think it is rather in his favour that he scored an excellent header and created the winner with an amazing pass.

[OneMoSalah 8,885]

What a pass to Marchisio for Giovinco's goal, shows off his more creative side. Italy weren't very good but still won.

In all honestly it was a superb game to watch last night. Japan unlucky though. Honda looks decent and Kagawa was MOTM in my opinion.

well if you want to regard competitive games...de rossi has been nowhere near his best for 2 years for AS Rom.
