The world cup win definitely inflated his stock in the game. I still believe his performances at the world cup where phenomenal but playing in Spain perhaps has either shown his flaws or as wanderer put it indicated that he is past it. We saw how they dealt with an injury blow to Nesta (arguably better than Cannavaro) pre world cup and certainly Italy are not short of a few defenders. TBH i think their squad is the most complete of all the teams participating.
