Zaza and Baggio’s are the two I normally think of. Both basically sending Italy out of two major tournaments.

    That’s not the reason. Baggio was always mistreated by National Team coaches. He was too much of a star, and Italy favours mediocrity over that. How many true stars has Italy ever had? Even all-time greats like Maldini and Buffon always kept a much lower profile than Baggio.
