Del Piero for us Juventus supporters is more than a football player. He rappresentented a generation was the next door guy that realize his child dream and with is semplicity, he became the simbol of all the values of being Juventus, always present for his teammates and an example on the pitch and outside. He choose to stay during the worst period of history of the club.....and that why Del Piero is a legend and always my captain.

Bro Alessandro Del Piero was built different. First time I went to watch football at cafeteria with my dad was when I was 6 and that game happened to be Juventus vs Inter Milan. The shop was split between Juve fans and Inter fans but the whole topic was about who was the real Fenomeno. The fact that a debate existed were Del Piero was being compared to the like Ronaldo Fenomeno just comes to show how good he was at one point in his life but sadly injuries got to him. My uncle who was Inter fan said Fenomeno was the better player but if Del Piero stayed injury free he would've had a few Ballon D'or under his name.

Del Piero will always be the peoples champ. Types of players as Baggio, Del Piero and Totti, well Italy have to wait a long time to re-live anything like that again. The differences between Del Piero and other Champions is that Del Piero was always respected by all fans, every coach and club. For me he was the best because the persona and character combined with his talent, leadership and humility, the numbers speak for themselves. Sadly people don’t give him all the cred he deserves.

Also those consecutive success , after the second injury del piero was the main man for juventus to reach another final. 4 finals and 2 semi finals are not bad for a player.

[@lucaemma4485]

In 96-97 he was unstoppable, you have to be good to get Baggio to sit on the bench. He bulked up too much physically after the injury at Udine. I remember when he came back he had lost his pace and in euro 2000 he did not look like his former self. His technique allowed him to partially overcome that problem and he managed to still do great things later on in his career.

[@cimmerian5194]

I honestly think that post Serie B seasons are some of his best in the entire career. People tend to underrate Del Piero because he was always a team player and wasn't trying to be flashy. He was a different player but he aged well. This video is ridiculous btw, so is this channel. I came across it today lol, this guy has no clue about football and interpretes statistics like he's 6 years old. Btw, one of the reasons why Del Piero was never so good when playing for national team is because these are short competitions with a big random factor, and unless you have a team made with players mostly from two clubs (like Spain's golden generation or Italy at 2006. WC), you can't really make any super duper tactics. There is simply not enough time to train players since football itself has a high random factor and you need longer competitions to determine who is the best. Back to my point. Unless you have structured teams like Italy or Spain at that time, you really need some forwards with the "one man against the world" mentality, who are willing to try absolutely anything, waste some balls or chances etc. Baggio was like that. Del Piero was technically as good as Baggio, but he was much more disciplined and he fit in way better in long campaigns like Serie A, where consistency was needed from game to game and where you had a long-term plan. Within that structure he sure as hell had some tremendous magic moments, but he was always more of a team oriented player and was not prone to wasting balls like you sometimes need in WC or EC (nothing wrong with shooting 10 times from 20 yards there).

He's fifth all time in scoring in Serie A in spite of not being a number 9. But because he wouldn't take a penalty against his old club he's not a great player... Baggio is one of the all time great players. The best Italian forward by such a margin that it's not even close. And he did all this on one leg. He shattered his meniscus and ACL when he was eighteen. They thought his career was over before it even began. And he went on to have a legendary career for two decades. The guy was still one of the best players in the league when he retired. So to argue about his mentality is ridiculous.
