@dancolosimoo @FIGC Sorry, but Adidas will never let that happen. (but I agree with you, I love that badge.)

Bring this logo back while you’re at it. @FIGC

@NazionaleNews There was another logo in-between (which I liked the best) that also didn't make the World Cup.

😳 Encore plus fou : depuis le nouveau logo, l’Italie n’a plus participé à une Coupe du Monde

@Azzurri_En Victoria!

Only one objective on our minds tonight 👊🇮🇹 #Azzurri #VivoAzzurro #BIHITA

@Azzurri I prefer blue. I hate it when we play in white.

🇮🇹👕🤍 #BosniaItalia #Nazionale #Azzurri #VivoAzzurro

@Azzurri GET. IT. DONE.

Gli 1️⃣1️⃣ #Azzurri scelti dal Ct Gennaro Gattuso! Italia 🆚 Irlanda Del Nord ⏱️ Ore 20.45 🏟️ Stadio di Bergamo 📺 #RaiUno #ItaliaIrlandaDelNord #Nazionale #VivoAzzurro

@adriandelmonte Since you are mentioning European success by Forest, remember when Grasshopper eliminated Real Madrid in 1980? Trust me, it's been worse than this.

Tonight: • 17th in England 3 • 2nd in Turkey 0 Last night: • 5th in Italy 2 • 1st in Turkey 5 Never been a bigger gap between the two top leagues in European football.

@BrianPMiles I wonder if any of the material had yellow polkadots.

My new favorite postcard note. 1986.

@FutbolShIrTALIA @acmilan @90sfootball @MyGreatest11 @WPDigital2 @EhRetroKits @kit_geek @nb_shirts @RevistaPanenka @Info_SerieA Wasn't this the very first year that the Serie A teams had thew player names on the back of their jerseys?

Need more squad photos like this. AC Milan 1995

@BrianPMiles I really feel bad for you, given you were trying to get away from the cold. But hey, at least the temp is in the double digits.

Liar.

@BrianPMiles I worked there on my first college program back in 2000.

@BrianPMiles Sounds like you need it bad.

@JosephALanza The grass is brown and dead here now. The sky is grey. The outdoors is dead.

It got really cold before Thanksgiving and has stayed that way for all but a handful of days. My hands and feet have been cold for 2 months. I hate the winter more than olives, abbreviation slang and the Star Wars sequels.

@BrianPMiles That’s the spirit!

@BrianPMiles Grass is always greener I guess.

@JosephALanza You are wrong.

@NickChaps96 Forget that. Don't tell me you're a Disney fan if you never danced with this guy at Pleasure Island. That was his original spot.

Don’t tell me you’re a Disney fan if you’ve never seen this guy at Disney Springs.

@FootyHumour That Yankees logo needs to be a Mets logo, then this is correct.

@Real_Rob_Warner @FRANCESCalciO_ @ostrl Apologies. From Puma’s perspective this was a 3rd kit. But Italy has never carried a true 3rd kit option that was used in regular rotation. When Puma introduced a special new kit, Italy either used them for a one off match, confederations cup, or a replacement of the previous kit

@JosephALanza @FRANCESCalciO_ @ostrl It wasn't meant to be a one-off. It was a legit 3rd kit, albeit it was only ever to be sold in fashion boutiques.

Random Calcio Fact: In August 2004, Lippi's first match in charge of Italy was a friendly away to Iceland. Italy played in a random all navy blue kit for the 1st time ever. There was no explanation as to why those kits were used by Puma, and they were never seen again.

Buon Natale! @Azzurri @Azzurri_En @AzzurreFIGC @FIGC @museocoverciano

@FRANCESCalciO_ @bujnai3 Also, notice that Nesta is wearing the #5, which was Cannavaro’s number (he missed the match because of “injury”). This kit was sold with the names already applied with the expected player name & number. So you will only find this kit available with Cannavaro 5, Del Piero 7, etc.

@bujnai3 Back when numbers in friendlies were randomly assigned 1-11 for the starters

@gianlia96 @FRANCESCalciO_ Those two matches are the only times Italy has played Iceland, and they are winless against them.

@FRANCESCalciO_ Then the following year they drew 0-0 if I remember correctly.
