Fulvio Collovati, 1982 World Champion and popular pundit/television commentator, is following Gennaro Gattuso’s new Italy with great attention. The former Milan, Inter and Roma defender, among others, spoke exclusively with Sportal.it about the moment the national team is experiencing, grappling with a rather complicated World Cup run.

Collovati, what do you think about the national team? Are we destined to play the play-offs?
“Well, at this point, I would say that the playoffs are almost certain. It will be important to see who we will find, in short we will need some luck’ some luck”.

Is Gattuso doing well in your opinion?
“I don&#8220t mind Gattuso at all. He has the right character for this delicate role. With him, at least you can see a reaction, there’s the will to fight”.

In short, is he the right ct for Italy’
?
“With any other coach, probably the game played with Israel we wouldn&#8217t have recovered. Instead, with him on the bench, the team reacted to every adversity and managed, in the end, to bring home the victory. Gattuso is a true fighter and he transmits his desire to fight to everyone”.

But how is this national team?”
“The four goals taken by Israel make you realize that we are not serene on defense. There are not the defenders we used to be”.
