Mina Rzouki is rested and back from her Mauritius holiday with a fresh tan and plenty of mosquito bites, as she and Nicky Bandini discuss Italy's Euro 2024 qualifier matches; whether Mateo Retegui is the right man up front for Italy, and whether it's fair for an Oriundo to be rushed in ahead of other players who have been brought up in the Italian system.

And, in a wider political and societal context, what does it say about Italy's treatment of its non-citizens who were born in, raised in, and have lived, studied and worked in Italy for their whole lives, yet still are somehow not considered eligible for Italian citizenship?

Are Gli Azzurri still clinging to the Euro 2020 win instead of bringing in fresh talent, and is Roberto Mancini still the manager we can rely on for a new approach?

Then we get in to some #ChroniclesQandA:

Antonio Conte - where to from here?

What is the real role of a manager?

Should Napoli rotate the squad more to rest players in the run-in to the Serie A title and the Champions League?
