The difficulties of statistical thinking describes a puzzling limitation of our mind: our excessive confidence in what we believe we know, and our apparent inability to acknowledge the full extent of our ignorance and the uncertainty of the world we live in. We are prone to overestimate how much we understand about the world and to underestimate the role of chance in events -- Daniel Kahneman (2011), Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics

The same Buffon that won the World Cup in 2006?

What is all this weeping and wailing for Buffon? I don't get it! The weeping and wailing also happened after the CL final. Am I getting something wrong? Is Buffon the owner of any success?? Is he not supposed to work hard like everyone else??

Terrible manager. First not picking an in form Giovinco, then not playing Insigne in the most important match of your career.

Serie A is currently, substantively the best league in Europe atm, just based on football content alone.

Some briliant young players coming out of Atalanta, Sassaulo, Lazio, Fiorentina, Sampdoria....

Remember it took PKs to knock them out of the Euros under Conte, with scrubs like Giacherini. Conte would've challenged for the WC with the current team.

Italy have been let down by the FIGC.
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Sad that the Azzuris won't be at the world cup, but the signs have been there since 2010. Live to fight another day

That is no anointment of teams and players. What Ayo and all the self-claimed experts wanted was a
World Cup with the favorites pre-determined. This would have suited the lazy pundits who refuse to face
the facts that competition is sidelining those without imagination.
More humble pies to be served in Russia.
That's how I feel about it too. Sad day for football my ars, if you don't turn up then you don't go to the big dance, period. Football is evolving, there aren't any safe teams anymore.

Do not worry. The Azzuri will be back. They will recover from this setback.

Adios Buffon. You will be sorely missed but thank you for what you gave the beautiful game!

I dont feel sorry for Italy. They really needed to go back to the drawing board. Their footballers and clubs have been on the decline for a while now!!

I can now in all honesty say that the standard of African freekicks is as good as that of Italy.
