Young, roided up Del Piero before he blew his knee was a marvelTotti should have won this by so so far. At his best the better player and with much more longevity. Okay he played for the wrong team to win stuff
Agreed, Del Piero at his best was the better player for sure. His knee injuries slowed him down from reaching even bigger heights. Totti was top drawer and did it for a longer period but his best wasn’t as good as Del Pieros.Young, roided up Del Piero before he blew his knee was a marvel
In 97/98 there was a whole Ronaldo vs Del Piero debate in Italy and the thing is, it wasn't insane
And Ronaldo was an alien god
Over the course of the respective careers Totti is the better player, there's really no argument otherwise worth even consideringLet me equip some very sturdy armour before I say this.
Del Piero, I think Totti is a bit overrated due to his, oh my God he's so loyal to Roma shtick.
Please give me a 10 second headstart before you start hurling rocks at me.
Ah that's also when they beat Ajax in the CL final where they could sprint constantly for 90 minutes without ever getting tired? Seemed a bit dodgy at the time.Over the course of the respective careers Totti is the better player, there's really no argument otherwise worth even considering
Del Piero in his best season though(97/98) was better than Totti at any point in his career. Though having said that, Del Piero was most likely roided up to his eyeballs that season, soooo...
I mean, he went from looking like the heir to Baggio, to super peak-Rooney in the span of a summer...
Yeah, it's been proved that juventus were pumping their players full of PEDs in that period. PEDs that were mostly legal at the time(due to being new), but still. In the case of Del Piero i think that's what "ruined" him. It almost certainly contributed to his injury and was likely the main reason why he went 3 years looking like a shade of himself afterwards, and never even recaptured the levels he was at in '96Ah that's also when they beat Ajax in the CL final where they could sprint constantly for 90 minutes without ever getting tired?

Yes. Look up Riccardo AgricolaSorry, but where does this Del Piero did roids thing come from?? Actual proof?
Yes. Paulo Sousa ruined his knee thinking he was doing some kind of advanced treatment with medicine to cure his injuries, but he was just taking enhancing drugs and painkillers that didn't gave the sleepy secondary effects.Yes. Look up Riccardo Agricola
You might also just take a couple random games from the 95/96 season vs 97/98 for a comparison
To be clear, juventus players were unaware of it
Sorry, I didn't watch to see how old the thread is. My bad.@Bogdannn why do you keep bumping massively old threads you nutter?
Well no. After 1998 there's really no question that Totti was the better playerIt took a crocked Del Piero for both of them to be put in the same equation.
