Baggio won't score

Spain must win. We have enough team to beat Italy without problems. The only doubt it's the spanish coach, the worst ever.

Baggio has scored 200+ Serie A goals . Yeah he isn't a "natural" goalscorer

Totti has scored 100 + serie A goals .... So yeah he isn't a goalscorer.


......

16 goals this season, second top scorer. To score is not his main work but he scores a lot of goals. Great player. I'm talking about Totti, of course.

you still dont understand what Im trying to point out

that may be because of my lack of English so nevermind....

Totti already has 20 league goals this season

I understand what you're saying ... you mean that Baggio isn't a poacher like Inzaghi or Ruud but does that really matter ?

What matters is that he is capable of scoring against anyone.

So you're silly argument about him not scoring unless he gets a set pieces goes out the window.

He may not score, but that doesn't mean he can't


comprende ?

 

[jani]

I didnt say he cant

Its more of the unlikely-ness if compared againts the poachers, who in this case, will be Vieri

So what Im saying is that if someone were to score, it will most likely be Vieri..

Lets just stop arguing.. I get ur point myself..

Baggio is a forward, not a striker, that means he creates his own chances, creates chances for others and poaches the occasional goal.

Do you guys think that if he shines tommorrow there's a chance for Trap to take him to the Euro? That would be great...

 

[jani]

Nah, I really doubt that

This is his "goodbye" game anyway

---------------------Buffon-----------------------

Panucci-Cannavaro-Materazzi-Zambrotta

------- Fiore-------Pirlo--------Perrotta-------

------------------R.Baggio-----------------------

--------------Vieri--------Di Vaio----------------


Most probably Di Vaio will play wide on the left.

I hope Baggio tears up the field tomorrow. Damn, such a shame he must go, but people age, and we must face it .

please dont tell me u were trying to say that baggio isnt in as igher class as them

he is a potent goal scorer like those three, but just as creative as a totti
once the ball gets around the penalty area, he can do anything with it

you've got it all wrong, totti and del piero are like baggio, baggio's not like them, that's why he's the divine one

 

[maraujo1]

If I were to put my money on a winner it would have to go to Spain. You may have Totti and Del Piero but we have Raul and Morientes. You may have Buffon but we have Casillas. It will be a good match.

no, we don't have totti and DP, they aren't playing

 

[maraujo1]

Ummm well Vieri and Baggio then. Baggio was a great player and I hope he gets the send off he deserves. Its a good thing Luis Enrique isnt playing as to avoid any misguided elbows to the cranium lol.
