Antonio Conte not amused with the MLS

I think the MLS has found it’s worst critic as of today and may have received the biggest slap in the face thanks to the hands of Italy‘s head coach Antonio Conte. The 2016 Euros is weeks away and the 30-man preliminary rosters have been released with some surprises.

In Conte’s final year leading Italy, he threw a curveball and excluded New York City F.C.‘s Andrea Pirlo and Toronto F.C.‘s Sebastian Giovinco. It’s arguable that Pirlo’s quality has dropped a bit and mainly because of his age, but he’s a pure leader on the field.
