Can Pelle bounce back against Spain?
Pelle' moved overseas at a young age, and found himself sitting on the bench at AZ Alkmaar.
Even when he rebounded with 57 goals with the Feyenoord shirt, the former Lecce man never earned respect in Italy, not until he started scoring goals for Southampton.
Having gained a place with the Azzurri thanks to his good performances with Southampton, the 30-year-old found himself on the bench more than he wanted at Saint Mary's, partly due to injuries.
Tonight, he has the chance to put his poor performance against Sweden behind him. If he was perfect against Belgium – his hard work helping Italy keep possession ticking and his team-mates moving forward – we can expect him to do well against Spain, too.
And another thing: he's already bagged three Premier League goals against David De Gea. Surely he can do as well tonight?
