Yes but the way Italy plays has the LB basically parallel with the RW. The RB and 2 CBS form a diamond with Jorginho. I dont think Bastoni would do well in an attacking LB role.I think he played some LB at Parma didnt he? Either way, he's definitely got all the attributes to play LB imho.
Italy will play against the floor champion. Inspirational...Bravo Italy, if you throw yourself on the floor enough times, the referee can forget he needs to add minutes
