Am I the "he" with this jersey discussion?

What was needsomejays OG post?
 
Italy didn't have it this year, plain and simple. Age, lack of defense, no real offensive drive, it all added up.
 
The shocking part of all this isn't that Italy is struggling, it's that they're struggling in what is arguably the easiest group at the tournament. Slovakia had never made a WC before this, and New Zealand had earned only one point in any FIFA competition before this tournament. I know that doesn't necessarily determine how they'll play, but we're talking about inexperienced teams that you would expect Italy to slice into pieces. But as poster above said, age + holes in defense + no offensive creativity = disappointment.
