Italy’s tremendous start to Euro 2020 means they are already through to the last 16, leaving Roberto Mancini able to switch his team around if he wishes, giving tournament game time to a few other members of the squad.

Wins over Switzerland and Turkey have been richly deserved for the Azzurri, with a three-goal margin of victory each time proving their consistency as much as their quality.
