Totti coming back in time to take on Ireland?

How do we feel if the Italians add Totti?

Bring em on! Pirlo couldn't handle the heat last time.

Totti is an over rated prima donna, good player every now and then when he fancies it but not a guy Id like to have beside me in a battle

Those Italians always seem to get lots of Totti

over 400 pages of totti in the off topic forum.

where do i start with that post?

fair play.

**irishfan86** · 06/07/2009, 6:24 AM

I don't want to curse us, so I'm trying not to say anything negative about Totti's ability.

Just have a look at Totti's goalscoring record for Italy in contrast to his record with Roma, and come to your own conclusions about how worried we should be.

**Infadel** · 06/07/2009, 8:26 AM

I never rated Totti as a player and one thing about his game after watching him in the recent Roma encounters is he is completly lazy and looks a spent force. If Italy are that desperate to bring him back let them it won't make too much of a significant diffence to their strikeforce and who knows they might decide to also bring the likes of Inzaghi and Di Vaio back.

**Duggie** · 06/07/2009, 8:51 AM

id prefer he didnt come back against us. you cant argue with his record and performances in seria A. sooner or later lippi will have to call on cassano aswell no matter what differences they seem to have. italy with totti and possibly cassano are much stronger than without.

While Totti can be brilliant when the mood takes him, I'd be more worried about Rossi who is currently in the squad and playing very well. I thought he was head and shoulders above all the other Italians during the confed cup.

**Duggie** · 06/07/2009, 11:00 AM

nah totti can play the killer pass and hes deadly from free kicks and peno's. stay away totti...stay away!!

I wouldnt get over-worried about him either,we could have an exile of our own back by that stage and on football ability Totti ranks fairly low.Also does anyone know when Stephen Reid is due back hes currently in contract talks with his club so I"d imagine hes making good progress??

Yeah totally agree with this............rossi is the one to look out for.

That's a laughable statement to be fair , I know he doesn't play in the Premiership but he's still a highly talented player

Who gives a crap?

I'd say right now on Italian foot.ie there's a thread called "Ireland coming back in time to take on Italy?"

I'd be pretty happy with that. I watch Seria A more than any other league and I would describe Totti as such: he is lazy, arrogant, a bad team player, always complaining, and just seems like a right cnt. They have better players with better attitudes already; I would see it as a step down from Iaquinta and Rossi anyway for sure.

He"s not a highly talented player your prob the only one here who believes this,I watch his league form and hes nothing short of a spoilt prat.One of the few out their who believes his own hype-besides he"s never done anything worth noting more of an Italian playboy if anything
