Was he overrated? His goal scoring record doesn't look great

Scoring in Serie A was a difficult affair during the nineties and early 2000s compared to the other European leagues.

>He doesn't rate Super Pippo
Shiggy diggy

I don't anyone ever considered him great on the Del Piero, Totti level. Correctly rated as a tier below.

The Italian Defoe

Yes. Ruud van Nistelrooy was a much better poacher

no he wasn't, he was the ultimate meme player, but in his case it was a good thing. all logic said he should have sucked, but he was just the luckiest player in the history of the game.

I remember back in 2006 he scored against Bayern, he tried to kick the ball, but he literally kicked it into his own face and it deflected into the net. I remember Kahn just laughing, despite Bayern being pretty much out at this point. It was like "this is insane, I can't do a thing about this guy". Year later he wins CL for Milan by scoring a goal with his back. Literally, he scored by deflecting it into the net with his back. Funniest striker ever, until he scored against your team.

He was a slippery wildcard, his greatest traits were sniffing out rebounds and tap-ins and beating offside, he even had partial immunity to offsides.

He was not able to play Solo CF or anything like that. He was just Pippo.

He was great against tough teams who'd only give you few opportunities, because he was always there for every single one.

If Bacca was really good he'd be Pippo.

Yeah i remember it to. It was like jesterday. I mean it was jesterday. I watched it on youtube.

He simply didnt have consistency, and was also a bit injury prone, same as Vieri
But an in form Pippo was one of the most lethal strikers in the game, he could score from anywhere, anytime

sounds a lot of hernandez

i remember he won the CC as a sub after he tried to kick a ball, deflecting it onto his head and then into the goal
