Totti.

Dude had a 3D map of the entire pitch in his head. Could look at the ball, think where he wanted to put it, and his body would do the craziest things to just get the ball where he visualized it.

Never ask an Irish man about football. The two good players they've had were flawed. Yes all two of them and they also disliked irish people
