Guida or Mariani perhaps?
Mariani was just promoted to First Group without an EL GS match. Guida had some good appointments but he is not ready for WC level. Plus he is also a First Group and not Elite.
Do you think Orsato will go Edy? Is it possible Italy don't have a referee at all?
I think that FIFA/UEFA and AIA will push him to continue. I can't imagine Italy without a WC referee. Don't forget that 2 Italians are at FIFA (Collina) and UEFA (Rosetti).
Yes, I was thinking about that UEFA/FIFA connection when I asked! I just hope they are fair and if Orsato pulls out at short notice before and there's no one else been prepared then they don't have a referee from Italy - as happened with England and Clattenburg.
