Hello to all!

I followed some matchs of your team and I think you grew up very much in these years... and I "see" great enthusiasm and trust around the team.
I think you can do a good WC.
Good luck! and enjoy yourself!

excuse me for my poor english... I'm from Italy...

thank you!
i appreciate the effort to write in italian

well... it's beautiful to see the excitation you have!
i believe in All Whites... i started to watch some of your matchs after italy-NZ 4-3... and you have a good team.
i hope you will arrive first in the group... but, frankly, it's very difficult.
my heart is with you (and italy..of course), but my head says me that other teams have much more experience.

i wish you all the best (and i bet on All Whites...)... win a match will be fantastic, win the group (or also the second position) will be legendary

Benvenuta (or Benvenuto)!

With comments like that I am sure you will be very welcome to come to visit Wellington, New Zealand!

I wish for New Zealand to draw (or win???) against Italy but I know that your team is very strong!

Good luck for Italy and see you in Round of 16!

thank you! you are very kind!

and you are all welcome to Milan

frankly...we wait a victory against NZ... but we aren't so presumptuous to undervalue All Whites... we must do an intelligent match to win...
but you have the possibility to win... the important thing it's that you don't start to draw... the slow-play is an advantage for us.
however... i really bet on your victory...

I actually quite like the fact we are playing you last. Our game order couldnt be more perfect for us.
 
Getting the side we are most likely to get a result from first up,gives us the best chance to get off to a dream start. Then playing you guys (Italy) last could mean one of 2 things
a) it could give us the chance to do one of the great upsets and knock you guys out whilst we progress
or more likely;
b)You guys (Italy) having already qualified,rest a few players and give us a better shot at knicking some sort of result

eeeeh... i don't know... it depends by the first match.
we (italy) are in a difficult moment... some players are old, others are broken and the youngs are without experience (at the highest level)... and Lippi renounced to some talentuous players like cassano and balotelli... there is little fantasy in this team.
we must point all on tactics, and we must pray that 2/3 players will make a great WC (di natale, gilardino/pazzini, chiellini, maggio).
i'm pretty sure we will mistake at least a match in the group...like against USA in germany '06
