Italy Football Formation

Lineup (5-4-1)

Italy "Greatest XI of All Time"

Italy had so many talents, it is hard to choose any particular 11. However, if they wish to play Cateneccio and play it gracefully (unlike Herrara's Inter Milan in the later days), then this team with those wonderful legends of defense are perfectly foiled with creative midfield and brilliant goalscorers.

Coach/Manager :- Giovanni Trapattoni, Fabio Capello and Marcelo Lippi.
