    How good was Francesco Totti actually? #GOAT
    New episode of a documentary series where I plan to present all the greatest players of all time and then give them a score so a ranking of the best players can be created. In this episode we take on Francesco Totti who played for Roma for most of his career, not only one of the greatest forwards of all time but one of the greatest players of all time. See how Francesco Totti ranks and just how good he actually was.

    I think that Totti would've deserved a 10/10 on playmaking.

    Ironically, Roma's biggest successes on the international scene in last 30 years came shortly before he made his debut (UEFA Cup finals 1991) and shortly after his retirement (UCL semi-finals 2018). However, his flair, his skills, assists and goals, passion and celebrations, his loyalty, his leadership and career longevity will be remembered forever. An immortal Prince of Rome.

      *"Romas success in intrentional scene doesnt have anything with him..."*
      Of course it doesn't. He wasn't part of it.
      *"That semi final..Team Roma had in that time was fucing sick..."*
      That Roma team wasn't bad at all. Some new players have arrived, like Kolarov, 20 years old Ünder, 21 years old Schick and Alisson was promoted to the first squad. At the same time Totti, Salah, Paredes, Szczęsny, Rüdiger, Emerson and Vermaelen left the squad.
      *"With Totti they would cruise trough it..."*
      With all due respect, I think the key of the success was Totti's departure. He has had his chances over the past 25 years. He was awful in last 3-4 seasons, but his ego was so big that he couldn't realize that his time was long gone. That's why I respect Maldini, Baresi, Bergomi, Mancini or Puyol the most. They simply knew when it was over.
      *"Last time Totti played in a team like that he won Seria A and World Cup..."*
      So he need some kind of "Galacticos" to win some trophies? That's why Maradona is the best. He won World Cup by himself and the next one he reach to the final despite of being injured the whole tournament. Also he manage to won Serie A twice and one UEFA cup with small club from Naples.
      *"Even in his last years he made a diffrence with goals, assits even with moral bust when he comes to the pitch..."*
      I agree about the moral. His presence was very important and useful, but more in the locker room than on the pitch. He scored mostly from the penalty spot and number of assist was significantly lower in his last 4 or 5 seasons.
      *"But yeah, sadly it was after he was forced to retier......."*
      As I said before, he simply didn't knew when it was over, so he was forced to retire.
      However, He was one of the biggest talents ever and I enjoyed watching him.

  • @keyos1955
    @keyos1955 2 ปีที่แล้ว +100

    Totti was the best playmaker in the history of football, far better than Zidane or Xavi just to mention two champions. The bias here comes from the fact that he ended his career as a striker, but in the first place he was a playmaker, and his number in terms of assists and key passages easily outnumber the ones coming from any other player. He also was one of the best scorers of all time, as he scored an incredible amount of goals playing half of his career as an offensive midfielder. What Totti lacked was just the dribbling, an average 6,5 out of 10, especially in the final part of his career. Totti was preferred by Florentino Perez to Zidane, and they got the French player only after Totti refused many times, and he was not even at the best moment of his career. Totti was considered by Pelè and Maradona as the best player of his time and one of the best of all time. The comparison with Del Piero it's not real, cause Totti outmatch him in any stats and he was preferred by all the CTs of the Italian national team. Lippi, a historical coach of Juventus, preferred Totti to Del Pierodespite the fact Totti was injured for months and recovered only a few weeks before the World Cup. We are talking about a legend, far better than players like Zico, Del Piero, Eusebio, and in my opinion even better than Zidane and Platini

    My favorite memory of him is his last match at the San Paolo. There was a camera on him in the corridor to the field(the old one that is not used anymore) and there is a mural of the skyline of Napoli. Totti touched it and had a look in his eye like that just said, I love this place and I will miss playing here. There is no love between Napoli and Roma supporters due to the death of Ciro Esposito but Totti will always have respect from Napoli. Una Legenda, una bandiera, unico, there will only ever be one Francesco Totti.

    Totti as a striker was excellent. Totti as a #10 (first half of his career, before turning 30) was otherworldly, he could create chances with extreme confidence and entertain crowds like a gladiator in the arena. I actually enjoyed that part of his career more, he took more responsibilities and appeared unfazed by them. Euro 2000 was his peak for the national team.

    Regardless of the fact that he never left Roma, back in the day when I followed football more closely with my friends, everyone knew who Totti was and respected him immensely. Hell, I was never a fan of Italy and even hated them a bit (especially after knocking out my Germans from 2006 World Cup), but if you asked me back in the early 2000s who I want as a 10 and a captain on my team, the answer would probably be Totti more often than not. Not only because he was good, but because I loved his dedication and loyalty to Roma. You can't buy that kind of thing and you probably won't see it again in modern football.

    I would give him higher scores in:
    -Finishing cause the cucchiaio
    -Adaptability cause he played well in different roles during his career
    -Icon factor cause he is Francesco Totti!
    And would give him a bonus point for his loyalty and not going to Madrid on the eraly 00's
    By the way, loved the video man!

      Also playmaking would've deserved a 10/10.
      Totti was able to create plays outta nowhere, with one touch he was able to put his teammates in front of a goal, was able to start the play from behind and there are some crazy combo with Cassano that are glorious!

      @@henriquehansen314 i respect your opinion.
      Because i assume that your evaluation is purely based on the skill-set of a pure playmaker(Iniesta and Pirlo) and i accept that.
      Both Pirlo and Iniesta are 10/10 in playmaking, for sure, and concequently, i understand the why: .
      Because Totti was overlooked in that, with Xavi, Iniesta, Pirlo, Scholes etc. worldwide recognize as the best, it is easly to assume that Totti in some way was a little less of those legends. and had more in terms of assist-goals, balistic and goals.
      And also because Totti wasn't to the general eyes a "classic regista", because of the misconception that "the regista" is a role when in reality it is a task.
      To me the greater proof that he was on top of the game, also, in playmaking it is the world cup of 2006 after that he suffered a very bad injury that stopped one of his best season(individually) in terms of assist and goal-scoring.
      in the eyes of Lippi(italy C.T.) he would've been the game changer for italy, the one that could've assured goals, assists(to Toni) and all-around the most impactfull player in that World-cup.
      But instead with a metal plaque on his leg he was able to transform himself(Del Piero was his sub...) 4 assist and one decisive goal.
      Starting from far behind and see those passes lines(obscure to almost all players) one of my favourite plays was that heel that sent Zambrotta to score against Ukraine.
      Sorry for the essay xD but Totti gets me fired up.

    Totti lack the trophy cabinet because of the high competition at the time there were too many players and clubs performing at their peak and establishing as what we call their golden generation. Had he went to real madrid he could of won more trophies
    Ballon dor was difficult when you have del Piero, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Figo, Zidane, Henry, schevchenko, etc (too many to list)
    They were rewarding fifa player of the year awards ie (they still do) Ronaldinho won fifa best player of the year award while schevchenko won the ballon dor
    It's not the ronaldo v messi only era
    So medals were distributed differently
    And for the world cup it's a big deal when you're playing less In a national team for this event once every 4 years it's a bigger difference from champions league as "we'll try next year"
    It's safe to say totti played in the toughest italian league era let alone golden era

    The biggest difference between him and gerrard or messi or xavi ecc is that he decided to stay in his former knowing he wasn’t going to win ANYTHING.
    In 2004 as roma was in 16th position (near to serie B) and Real madrid asked him to play w them, but he said NO.
    For me it’s super easy to decide to stay in barcellona or liverpool when you know that every year you will win a trophy or compete for the ballon d’or or that you have a lot of super skilled teammates.
    The history between totti and as roma is exactly like if CR7 decided to stay at sporting lisbona for life. Something crazy.
    He is THE LEGEND.

    adaptability in question because he played for only one team? keep in mind, he played for that one team over 25 years (as you yourself rightly stated). regardless of the badge on the shirt remaining forever unchanged, don't you think that 25 years with one team and a revolving door of coaches (as well as the players around him... besides de rossi, of course) kind of negates this idea that he isn't adaptable simply because he played with only one team? every manager brings a different philosophy and different demands as we all know, so that easily offsets the lack of evidence for how he would have performed if he had played for multiple clubs. this is all just meant to be honest and constructive criticism on my part, but it seems like a big oversight to not consider that metric for "adaptability" in place of how many clubs he played for. adaptability seems like a rather subjective thing anyway, as i could think of it as positional flexibility or ability to thrive in different football philosophies.

Despite of many problems and comparisons…. the fact he stayed all his career in Roma and played at such high skilled level, alone make him one of a kind.

    Are you kidding me (and us)? Totti is of the highest quality. You are off the mark. With him being a single man club like Puyol and Maldini brings forth the greatest respect. He is the Roman Icon. Il Gladiatore! The Eighth King of Rome. The X man, so many things we can say about him. He is in my all time XI. That's right he starts with Messi on the pitch. Totti is the Trequartista. Del Piero will have to watch from the bench (great player too but as far as XI Cristiano Ronaldo would have the left side).
