With Calcio currently in the middle of a winter break, Goal.com takes a look
at the All-Time XIs for some of the biggest teams on the peninsula...
Guido Masetti (1929-43) – Roma have never had a truly world-class
goalkeeper, so the choice came down between Masetti, and Franco Tancredi who
won the Serie A title in 1983. Masetti played for Roma his whole career,
making 339 league appearances. He was an important element in Roma’s
first-ever Scudetto success in 1942, while he also picked up two World Cup
winners medals as a non-playing squad member for Italy in 1934 and 1938.
Cafu (1997-2003) – One of Brazil’s all-time great wing-backs who was
nicknamed Il Pendolino (The Express Train) due to his indefatigable ability
to run up and down the flank continuously for 90 minutes. Cafu played over
100 times in Serie A for Roma and was a key factor in their Scudetto success
in 2001.
He was also a star in international football, playing at four world cups and
three successive World Cup finals, two of which he won. He is the most capped
Brazilian player of all-time and has won every major club honour in the game.
Giacomo Losi (1954-69) – One of the Giallorossi’s first real heroes, Losi
earned his nickname Core de Roma (Heart of Rome) in 1961 when he played on
against Sampdoria with the scores level at 2-2, despite being heavily
injured. Heroically Losi scored with 10 minutes remaining and Roma won 3-2. A
tough defender, who won 11 caps for Italy and played at the 1962 World Cup,
Losi held the Roma appearance record for more than 38 years after he retired.
Aldair (1990-2003) – Brazil have never been blessed with too many great
centre-backs over the years, however Aldair was one of them. In 13 superb
seasons at the club he made 415 appearances, winning the Scudetto in 2001
under Fabio Capello. Tall, strong and stylish, Aldair won 93 caps for the
Brazil national team, playing at Italia 90’, USA 94’ and France 98’,
picking up a winners medal in the States. After he left Roma at the age of
37, the club retired his No.6 shirt in his honour.
Sebastiano Nela (1981-92) – Versatile left-sided defender, who made 395
appearances in 11 years at the club. Nela was part of Roma’s greatest ever
team under Nils Liedholm in the early 1980s, a squad that won the 1983
Scudetto and lost to Liverpool on penalties in the final of the European Cup
the following year. Due to the abundance of world-class Italian defenders
around during his time-period, he was only capped five times by the Azzurri,
although he was part of the 1986 World Cup squad who disappointed in Mexico.
Agostino Di Bartlomei (1972-84) – One of the biggest crimes in the history
of Calcio was that Di Bartolomei never played for Italy. A skilful playmaker,
who dictated the tempo of the game, ‘Ago’ was tall, elegant, and had
fantastic vision and technical ability. He would regularly hit pinpoint
60-yard passes to a team-mate’s feet and would spot through-balls that most
other players did not know existed. His style of play was in some ways
similar to Andrea Pirlo today. Di Bartolomei played 308 games for Roma,
scoring 66 goals, and captaining them to the Scudetto in 1983. He tragically
committed suicide in 1994 at the age of 39, ten years to the day after Roma
lost the European Cup Final on penalties to Liverpool.
Falcao (1980-85) – Roma turned down the chance to sign Zico in 1980 and the
whole world laughed. They weren’t laughing for long however as Falcao
(pictured above with Bruno Conti) soon showed himself to be possibly the most
complete midfielder in world football during the early 1980s. Falcao was like
a general on the field, brilliant tactically and technically, he was
nicknamed the ‘Eighth King of Rome’. He won the Scudetto in 1983, while he
also excelled for Brazil, playing in their legendary 1982 World Cup team.
Indeed he scored in the classic 3-2 defeat to Italy during that tournament in
Spain.
Giuseppe Giannini (1982-96) – Before Francesco Totti the symbol of Roma was
Giannini. Like Totti, this midfielder, turned down the big-money advances of
the top teams to stay with his beloved hometown club. A brilliant playmaker
with wonderful technique, he made over 400 appearances for Roma, scoring 75
goals. Sadly the years when he was at his peak coincided with a lean spell
for the Giallorossi. He played 47 times for the Italian national team, and
was a key player at Italia 90’, scoring during the group game against the
U.S.A.
Bruno Conti (1973-90) – Quite probably Italy’s greatest winger of all-time,
Conti, aside from two loan spells at Genoa in his formative years, spent his
entire career with Roma. He made over 300 Serie A appearances for the club,
winning the Scudetto in 1983. An incredibly skilful and tricky wideman, Conti
would run rings around the most accomplished of defenders. His career
high-point was in the 1982 World Cup when he was undoubtedly in my eyes the
player of the tournament. He provided numerous assists during the
competition, including the final goal for Alessandro Altobelli in the 3-1
final win over West Germany.
Roberto Pruzzo (1978-88) – Absolutely prolific goal-scorer, who was
Capocannoniere in the Italian league three times during the 1980s. In total
he scored 106 goals in 240 league games, including 12 during the 1983
Scudetto-winning campaign. The moustached Pruzzo once hit five goals in a
match, during a 5-1 league win over Avellino in 1985/86. He was also a
protagonist in Europe, hitting a vital double against Dundee Utd in the 1984
European Cup semi-final. In the subsequent final against Liverpool, he scored
Roma’s equaliser, however he would go on to pick up a losers medal following
a penalty shoot-out defeat.
Francesco Totti (1993-) – Symbolic Roma hero who made his debut for the club
as a 16-year-old way back in 1993. Fifteen years later, he is still the focal
point of the side and a Roma team without Totti is almost unthinkable. Er
Pupone is now the Giallorossi’s record appearance-maker and all-time highest
goal-scorer, and at the age of 31 he still has a fair few years left in his
legs. Club captain Totti was one of the key members of the 2001 Scudetto
success and when he does eventually retire he is likely to be remembered as
Roma’s greatest ever player.
Formation 4-4-2:
Masetti
Cafu Losi Aldair Nela
Di Bartlomei Falcao
