If you need a whole team to calm down your center back you know what an immense power Stam had. Imagine the best strikers shitted their pants when feeling Stams breath in their neck. When they turned around they saw an almost not breaking through wall and when they tried to look in his eyes they saw nothing but nearing death.... Love Jaap Stam!
