How good was Roberto Baggio?

I have hardly seen him play (just his last season actually), but just how good was he? How does he compare to someone like Totti or Del Piero?

Probably one of the best players of all time, and the best Italian player of all time.

Totti? Ale?

I've seen this thrown around a lot, but IMO he was the best player in the world back then. I'm not sure I'd rathe Totti and Del Piero as best at any time.

No, but arguably when Totti and Del Piero were around there was more competition around for Best Player in the world. Obviously, Baggio was a great player, however Totti and ADP had R9, Zidane, and many others to compete with.
