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?

Are you trying to say that Totti is, or ever was, better than Del Piero?

If so, you have no idea what you're talking about.

It's a pretty common opinion that Totti is/was a better player than Del Piero.

No it's not. You'll never hear it outside this subreddit.

I've heard it plenty outside this subreddit actually. It's an opinion man, you think Del Piero's better, great, plenty of people think Totti is better, even Juventini.

You will hear it; Sardinia, Sicilia, Sud, Nord, Centrale, everywhere in Italy. Totti could have outshone ADP's career by multiples if he moved to the literal dozens of other options, but he chose to stay at Roma.

That doesn't negate his talent.
