Maybe the situation in the Italian team is very bad now, but if Italy tries from now on, then in the next few years their team will be full of good players again and they will return to good performance again.
But what could be the solution for Italy? I say it has to start with children, with them encouraging them to play football , with talent scouts starting when they're 4 or 5 years old So, in light of this, they have to act, because by seeing better order and more talent, they can work much better from the very Beginning From the age of 16, they can play in a professional national team Those options are quickly Needed.
I wouldn't say that the problem are the children rather than the whole youth system: when they are at young age many managers prefer players that are more physically developed compared to those who have good technique because, at that age, it's easier to win matches. But they are doing it for themselves, not for the kids. And that is totally wrong. I feel like there is too much pressure to obtain results instead the should focus more on the kids' growth, at the end who cares if you win the league when you are 14 years old?
But, as I said, it's not a problem that is affecting only Italy: if we take a look at the current Brazil squad, or even Germany, the names are quite mediocre. The stars are still players like Neuer, Kimmich, Marquinhos, Casemiro, and they are all old players. Where are the stars born after 2000? Vinicius? Wirtz? They are good but I'd take Neymar and Ozil over those two, without even thinking about it.
