How good was Diego Milito actually? #GOAT
New episode of a documentary series where I plan to present all the greatest players of all time. In this episode we take on Diego Milito who played for Inter Milan, Zaragoza and Genoa for most of his career, not only one of the greatest strikers of all time but one of the greatest players of all time. See how Diego Milito ranks and just how good he actually was.
I will never forget his name ... My first champions league final was when he scored against Bayern .. And I was like who is this dude ... But the name stuck with me forever .... Thank you for the amazing video ....
Mine too!
Me too
Il principe will always remain in the hearts of Inter fans 🖤💙
Awesome brace.
Mine too. Eto and milito ❤️
I'm a Racing supporter here in Argentina, we love this guy almost like nobody else. He was key for the league title in 2001, our club never achieved anything else after he left not even qualify for international cups, and then in 2014 when he came back we won the league again after 13 years (the first title in my lifetime). Simply my favorite player, my hero.
VAMOOOS ACADEMIAA
@@aukan22 VAMOSSSSSSSsssss
You forgot to say Racing had not won the league in more than 30 years. Bueh, por qué hablaba en inglés
@@titorobot2711 Por eso es maximo idolo, (algunos diran que es Pizzuti, Perfumo y Licha lopez)

Ahre Verón en una linea alternativa como ídolo de Racing
I certainly didn‘t forget that Milito was crucial in winning the treble for Inter. And he was such a humble person! Grazie Diego!
PS: you should do a video on Esteban “el cuchu“ Cambiasso. A massively underrated midfielder who never stood in the limelight, a quiet player. Only when he didn’t play it became clear, how important his presence for the team actually was.
Yeah Cambiasso was a rock, needs a video
Cambiasso also needs his credit for helping Leicester on their way to become PL champions. Great player
Cambiasso and Seedorf are 2 of the most underrated players in the history of football
Jose's Inter Milan was full of underrated Legends.
Cambiasso isnot underrated at all. If you ever play for Real Madrid, you arenot underrated.
He didn’t really disappear, the 2nd season he was in Inter he was injured and missed a lot of games. the 3rd season he was only second in terms of score to Ibrahimovic in Serie A with 24 goals at the age of 32. The season after he was injured again. Injuries sadly just hinder lots of players:(
I used to think Milito looked like Sylvester Stallone when he was playing rocky balboa lmao
bro same, milito was underrated
He did look like Rocky 😁
haha yes same!!
Before him crespo rambo
Dassrite!
Milito was the hardest working man in the business. He deserved every inch of success. He really put the work to make it happen.
Fun fact: Milito said that he actually refused Inter at the time of Roberto Mancini, because they had already too many big strikers (Adriano, Ibrahimovic, Crespo, Cruz, Balotelli...) and he thought it wasn't the right time.
Except for Ibra he would have probably made it (maybe even a two striker combo with both upfront?) but yeah I get how he felt like that
Thank you for reminding the football fans and the in depth video essay on why Diego Milito was one of the legend of the football game. A clinical goalscorer and the main reason Inter Milan and Jose Mourinho won the treble, a truly underrated and unsung hero of his day. 👍🏼
No worries man, glad you enjoyed
Yeah
Facts 💯 milito was also one of the reason why I won the league on soccermanager when I was younger. Such a reliable goalscorer. Ibra and eto'o got their plaudits but I'm glad others recognise milito's talent 🏆
He was banging in goals for years at Genoa, Zaragoza back at Genoa and then Inter! for those who followed him always! He never played much for Argentina due to the massive amount of talent they had up front at the time until maybe 2008-2010
Incredible player
Associated with Diego Milito:
Guarin
Julio Cesar
Wesley Schneider
Javier Zanetti
Cambiasso
Stankovic
Maicon
Palacio
Sully Muntari
Yuto Nagatomo
Samuel Eto’o
Oh I miss the old white dragon away kit, the “special one” Mourinho, and the dominant performances that came with them. 🥺🥺😢😢😢
Lucio
U missed the powerful left footer Goran Pandev
Sneijder
But yeah the great treble winning team always loved both Milan teams
Guarin? PALACIO? NAGATOMO? You are a bit confused hahaha
Diego Milito was the main reason Inter won the treble in 2009/10 season. He was amazingly crucial with his goals, he scored the only goal in last league match against Siena to win the title, then scored the only goal in cup final to beat Roma, and then the "crème de la crème", he scored 2 goals in Champipns leage final against Bayern to writte his name in history books forever.
He's my favourite player ever, he made our dreams come true, he made us proud to be an Interisti ⚫🔵.
My hero, Diego Alberto El Principe MILITO.
Such a passionate striker.
Last time I've seen such a striker was CHRISTIAN VIERRI
Passion? laughs in inzaghi
🤔 I'm thinking you're mistaking Inzaghi for Vieri.
When it comes to passion, you can mention Inzaghi, Milito, Batigo, Obagoal and (then) maybe to Vieri
@@joshuajuventino7938 That aggressive silence blonde assassin? Who would score at any chance?
Inzaghi was born offside but a great finisher and a loyalist.
RAMBO was ZLATAN before ZLATAN existed..
Diego Milito was one of the players even as an AC Milan fan, I respected. Him, Julio Cesar, Sneijder and Maicon were the beast. In 2010, the biggest snub wasn't Sneijder not winning, it was him not being nominated.
I loved Diego. Was great. Used to always put him on my fifa jaja. Being a barcelonista I also have much love for Gabi.. but was always injured. Your stories are so complete and such good narrative form ! So interesting and captivating!
Thanks man, glad you enjoy them
FINALLY SOMEONE TALKS ABOUT EL PRINCIPITO MILITO MY CHILDHOOD FOOTBALL PLAYER THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO
No worries man, glad you liked it
El Principe, El Nino and El Tigre my favorite trio of strikers!!
Him, Sneidjer and Mourinho perfect combination!!
El Pistolero deserves some recognition :D
I can't forget him. But what annoys me is Diego maradona not selecting 4 players from Inter who had won UCL. And as result of his ego Argentina got trashed 4-0 by Germany
Maradona was my favorite (as a player and charismatic leader), but that was shambolic decision.
How can we forget this legend and the 2009-10 season.
1st. You a legend bro. One of the best channels for footballer stories.
Keep up the hard work! 💪
Thanks man, couldn't do it without you
@@DailyDoseOfFootballYT what about me??..can you do without me..
@RaJu ViMa dislike, unsubscribe, uninstall TH-cam app ..(just kidding)
I normally go back to the 2010 UCL final to watch his 2 goals. Especially that 2nd goal.
Milito and eto partnership was one of the best I watch at inter Milan.
Two elite strikers
Inter fans have been spoilt with striker partnerships and that's not just recent with Lukaku and Martinez. Ronaldo with Zamarano, Baggio, Vieri, Recoba and there's more that I could go on with

When you're Jose Mourinho's main striker then you are something special.
Hahaha yes true. Good joke
Maradona did him a disservice playing him on the bench for a young higuain in south africa.He needed that worldcup to wrap up an incredible performance for the year .I won't forget him,he equally deserved the world best that year.This guy was the highest scorer in seriea and the best champs league player in 2010.His goals also won the Italian league cup.
No surprise, argentina board is expert in wasting talents. I'm pissed off too.
Maradona also left Cambiasso and Zanetti out of his squad. Great player but terrible manager...
I cant thank you enough for this video. If there was ever an underrated striker it was milito. He proved that the ballon d'or was fixed and that maradona was a vindictive coach. The prince will always know he has a very very very special place in the hearts of interisti.
No worries man, it's awesome to make your days a bit better by sharing my love for football ❤️
I’ll tell you what happen... Mourinho happened to him... Jose has an amazing track record with strikers... He unlocked Milito like how he unlocked players like Drogba, Zlatan and a few more then all of a sudden he was back to default settings when Jose left for Real Madrid 🤷🏾♂️
Mourinho Real were an incredible squad, Ronaldo had some of his best numbers ever
He was injured
But in 2012 season he had good season
That’s completely BS. Milito was simply injured and he continued to score right after injury.
2010 Inter treble ..The north remembers
they should make a movie about him , Stallone should play him :p
Nah, Adrien Brody
@@poweroftheriff maybe after they cgi his nose
Nah Stallone is too old for that role
Al Pacino will do a great job😂
just discovered this channel and learned a bunch about batistuta, stoichkov, jardel, baggio and a few others late 80s, 90s and early 2000s heroes that i really didnt know enough about
Very hardworking striker. I will never forget him. Be happy where ever you are diago. ❤❤
I remember him being super fast and scoring goals for Inter Milan. Also who can forget Jose Mourinho's celebration after Inter Milan knocked out Barcelona in the Semis . He pointed to the sky with his index finger while running and Víctor Valdés pushed him 😅
Thank you for creating this video, bringing his memory alive again:)
absolutely brilliant video thank you so much!!!!!!! I remember so clearly in 2010 thinking who is this guy and i completely forgot about him until I saw this video on my timeline, onece again thank you I really enjoyed that!!!!
Yeah that's the reaction I expected to get from some people, for many it was like a bleep in football history
Well it was not just one season. He was amazing at zaragosa before inter bought him. Scored a ton of goals!
Even at inter his second season was poor but his 3rd was excellent. Was brilliant for Genoa too.
He was even better at Genoa, right before Inter.
He shined in his 30s
Milito joined Inter when he was 29 turning 30 not 31 and, maybe you were too young to remember but he was hugely sought after from PL clubs when he was in Zaragoza but he refused preferring to go back to Italy.
Im Argentinean and the reason milito doesnt play much games for the national team was just favoritism, Its a shame. He was the best striker in 2009-10
Such a shame he got injured and coached by Benitez in 2nd year.
If only Mourinho keep staying at inter
yeah, milito under mourinho was incredible
If Henry deserved “Golden ball” this man deserved a “Diamond ball”. One of the most under appreciated players ever.
Truly a gem. So happy Inter signed him. He didn't shy away from the likes of more famous teammates especially Eto'o and Sneijder. In fact he was more of a team player and willing to help in defence also pick up balls from half way more so than always-selfish Ibrahimovic. This is one of those dream happy ending for any footballer
Both milito brothers were spectacular players man. What a joy to watch. With ewerthon at front that team was scary
Milito is a true football legend. The 2010 season was out of this world, especially if you are an Inter fan like me. I remember we were playing A LOT of PES at that time and we all knew that his name was Diego milito but at first we didnt know his brothers name as in the game he was called G. Milito. So we called him Gentleman Milito. Fun times.
Bro, I 100% agree with this video. Peak Milito is a monster, the same kind with Drogba. I still amazed by how he pierced through Bayern defense like its some mid table club. Maradona didnt give him enough opportunities is a crime for me even until now. I also agree that he seems unbothered by the facts that the world didnt give him the easiest path in football.
Rumor says after winning the CL he was just standing on the pitch all in sweat, blood and tears shouting: "Aaaaadriaaaan!"
For me as a kid from bayern germany it was absolutely awesome sawing all those brooken dreams by this god of football
Kids this days will never knew how good this guy was, they would just compare him with firmino or lukaku on twitter 🤦♂️
Nice documentary. You should do a video on Lucas Toni
Random fact, I used to love him as a kid because he had my name and my dad's name at the same time ahah
meu atacante favorito de adolescência, subestimado na mesma medida em que foi amado por aqueles que acompanharam sua carreira
One of the forgotten legends.
He’s not forgotten, he is just a delicious striker
One of my all-time favorite player 🔥
This guy was frightening in front of goal, particularly in 2009-10. He owned that champions league final in May 2010.
Italy lowkey has its best players ever playing for Argentina. Imagine if Messi, Milito, Zanetti, Di Maria etc... played for their grand parents country. That'd be dope!!
man, trust me. im a big fan of milito since he was playing for zaragoza.
what an elegan forward he was.
As a Milanista myself I cried in happiness when Inter won treble thanks to Diego Milito
I will not forget him... That Inter Milan side were amazing.
It was Milito magic against Barca that made me an inter fan for life
Forever in my memories
The prince of Milan. Grazie Diego 🏆
He hit his peak late. That one season was a classic.
He is a fantastic player his time at inter was his peak and also his last ride people dont seem to realize this man is already in his 30s after 3 great season with inter he suffers a horrific knee injury in 2013 that eventually ended his journey in europe i remember after that he return back to argentine and play for a few seasons before finally retire
Unluckily for diego if he came to europe and join with a bigger team sooner im sure he will become a more household name.. i think thats the main reason why peoples besides inter fans keep forget about him
Mate, you are just FANTASTIC! If you need some name for others video, i will be here for help!
Thanks man! You're awesome
Your pronunciation is very accurate. I like you mention their names.
Thanks man, I try. It's hard sometimes tho
Depends he slaughters certain words which is logical he’s not fluent in Spanish but yeah
A great account of a great player/person.
Thanks!
He was very very good mein..I really remember him still now..
In 2010 when everyone was crying over Messi winning the Ballon D'Or while Wes Sneijder deserved it, I thought Diego Milito on that specific year got robbed of it more then anyone...
No, absolutely no... Sneijder ok, but that's going to far....
Bro been a great striker all his career I was dying for him to come to Liverpool but opted for Spain Zaragoza madness but we missed a Jem there
I'll never forget this guy as I had placed a bet for inter to win the final 2-0 and put eto'o first goal. I was debating between the two of them.
Next time
hmmm a video on Pedro....fun fact he is the only player to score in a UCL final Europa final ans Super cup final
"How Pedro Rodriguez worked in the shadows"
Thats what Mourinho does, brings the best out of players and can make anyone elite (if they work for it)👏🏽👏🏽
Love all the goals you showed.....
Believe! I loved seeing him play 👏👏👏
As an Inter fan, I will NEVER forget his name.
I always remember how unplayable he was in that treble winning season 🔥
First and for real he was a legend
As a Juventus fan watching him lead inter merda post farsopoli to glory hurt me a lot inside.
I begrudgingly agreed though, he was one of footballs best finishers in that era of later 2000s early 2010s. And he could have had more career accomplishments had he been at bigger clubs than Genoa / Zaragoza (no disrespect to either of them though especially as both clubs do have a good fan base and history). I have him up there as one of modern footballs greatest finishers.
Shame it went by so fast
As an Inter fan seeing Juve Merda lead by refferee to stole Inter title race back in 1998 was a total disaster.
@@jetomoon Fact: Referees helped every team back then
Underrated hero! Forza Inter!
Another well made video. 🤩 Huge fan.
Thanks!
Diego Milito to me you are a football legend by Steve Irungu Jermaine
Its funny because i actually know milito because of his time in Racing back in 2014
I didnt forget him he was goated in his inter days
Real football fans know about DiegoMilito
one of the best in the business
It's a pity he Argentina didn't give him much chance. It'd have been a great combination of him Messi and Di Maria.
Well documented video as usual.
Thanks!
@@DailyDoseOfFootballYT No problem
Just a thought: there was another lil Argentine on that Zaragoza team by the name of Andres D'alesandro. To date, one of the best midfielders on his day...La boba. Fun fact: the football Liverpool are playing now was the football that the 2006 Real Zaragoza team played back then. I am both a Madrid and Brazilian fan, but in another world D'alessandro would be Brazilian.
Internacional de Porto Alegre legend
Nobody forgets him. We remember him very well
2010 Ballon d’Or was a total scam. No Milito in the list and also Messi ending up winning it… Sneijder should have win it cause of his amazing year with Inter and Dutch. Winning a Treble and also WC Runner up but the award went to Messi… Messi is one of the best, But that year he was no near to deserve it…
Wasn't that the year he scored 91 goals?
@@himum3429 🤦🏻♂️ 91 goals are you kidding me 😹. He was able to score something like 50… But football isn’t all about scoring goals. There is so much more..
@@himum3429 it was 2012 when he scored 92 goals in 1 calendar year
Milito for balon d'or? You are joking, right? Sneijder ok, but i think you are going to far...
@@OLL_-vx5rs yo I also mentioned that Sneijder should’ve won it and Milito should’ve in the list….
As Inter fan growing up in the 90s it was bittersweet that Inter finally won during late stage of Moratti era. If only Massimo had Beppe Marotta during 90s with him
Dude I was always wondering what happened to this dude!!! I remember his brother was a CB at Barcelona and they played against eachother I believe for 1st time in champions league history 2 brothers on different teams played against each other. Might have been 2nd time but believe it was first as 2010 world cup the 2 Boateng Brothers played Ghana v Germany on opposing sides.
Yeah, heartbreaking story
Oh football, a player a unique story. Thx for the video.
Ofc man!

Internazionale fans never forget him, he just beast but come in wrong era, at time is the prime of messi, christiano ronaldo, xavi or Iniesta. For me milito still one of best striker in the world
The Ballon D'or lost all it's credibility when Diego Milito wasn't even nominated in 2010...
Diego Milito won 5 trophies with Inter in 2010 (Seria A, Copa Italia, UCL, Club World Cup and Super Copa) . He was arguably their best and most important player during the 2009/10 season. He was Inter's top goal scorer and he scored 30 goals that season (14 more than any other Inter Milan Player) which included 22 in the league and 6 in the UCL. Was 2nd top scorer in Serie A and 3rd top scorer in UCL. Diego Milito scored the only goal in the Copa Italia final against Roma and also scored in the Semi Final against Fiorentina, scored the winning goal in the last match of Serie A that won Inter the league, Milito bagged a brace against FC Bayern in the UCL final and also scored in the round of 16, QF and SF of the UCL against Chelsea, CSKA and Barcelona. He also scored several other decisive goals that season. Despite doing all this, Diego Milito wasn't even nominated for the Ballon D'or in 2010. ( Not even among the top 23 players in the world? )
Inzo discovered the fountain of youth, and decided to have another run at football 😋
Both are legends...
Do Salvadorian player Mago Gonzalez. Lots of people don't know him but Maradona was a big fan
Gabriel : Diego
Defender : Striker
Early Bloomer : Late Bloomer
Really an polar opposite of eachother. Even their appearance are nothing similar lol.
Diego Milito Is A Beast Of A Striker. Monster In Front Of Goal 🥅 post.
2010 for Argentina was so stupid.. Maradona I love him (argentinian here).. but he was not a good coach.
He was more fan of the team instead of actually coaching and diciplining..
He tried building Messi up to win like he did in 86.
He failed to realize that the team also needed experience.
That experience beeing:
- Cambiasso (not selected)
- Zanetti (not selected)
And the best striker at that moment in time:
- Milito (benched)
All of whom who were on there peak physically and confidence. And all of whom from Inter that had just won champions league..
Seriously so idiotic...
Only Argentina never go to the World Cup with the best team possible and letting personal gripes keep them from selecting players.
Like in 1998 Passarella did not want to play both Crespo and Batistuta..
2016 Tevez not selected even though he won seria A and played CL final year prior..
Maradona should have known better since he himself have been put of teams do to personal gripes..
There was no World Cup 2016 what you mean?
the best IL PRINCIPE respect
ive been here since 3k congrats on the growth
Enjoyed!! Respect to Milito! Do one for Nuno Morais
Never forgot this legend. Ultimo!
