Seventies Mania, Thanks for this insightful piece on Georgio Chinaglia and the New York Cosmos. It brings back memories of that time and Chinaglia fine goalscorer!
My favorite all-time Cosmos player. Unstoppable. You knew he was going to get the ball at the top of the box, turn and shoot and players still couldn't defend him.
Both Rodney Marsh and Giorgio Chinaglia were entertainers. Both could cause the media gravitate towards them. Above all, both controlled the environment in the locker room and on the field.
PELE..."you shoot from no f#$% angle " ..CHINAGLIA... " I am Chinaglia if a shot from someplace it's because Chinaglia can score from that place"....Pele left the locker room crying..lol...Classic, love him or hate him, Chinaglia was cocky and could back it up...
This video is a little unfair in discussing Chinaglia versus Pele. By the time Pele got to the Cosmos, and even more so by the time Chinaglia arrived, Pele was near the end of his career while Chinaglia was still at the height of his.
I have been following football for 25 years and this is the first time I heard about a guy named Chinaglia. Now after watching this video I can easily forget about him..what douche bag..wow he led scoring in the USA league...amazing!!!

Passion and goals… Giorgioooo❤
GRAZIE GIORGIO
I met g. chinagla before a game in giants stadium. was a scoring machine !!!!
Chinaglia è stato un buon calciatore, un grande attaccante. Deve tutto a Maestrelli, suo allenatore e "padre spirituale".
He looks like Tony Saprano....
Rest in peace Giorgio
👏👏👏
I often wondered if Rodney Marsh and Giorgio Chinaglia could have meshed in Tampa Bay??
In that era both would of got into any team and both would of performed and together they would of been great
Witch is the song in 4.20
rip !
Ignoravo la storia di Chinaglia negli USA e il fatto che avesse giocato con Pelè. Comunque è stato un campione sul campo, un po' meno fuori.

And before USA he led Serie A in scoring. He was the captain of Lazio. You are not big on football history, eh?
Chinaglia was the more important player for Cosmo's than pele
