And just like that, I feel really old...

Arguably the best full back of all time and one of the faces of Serie A during its peak.

First remember him as part of Roma's 5-3-2 with him and Vincent Candela bombing up and down the wings all game long.

Here's a thread of him asking for the ball...

The best RB of all time for me (since I was born watching Football anyway)

When you look at how much the game has changed now, and in particular, how big a part full backs play in going forward, it just goes to show how quality he was to be doing it back in the 90's.

The biggest compliment I can give him is you could take prime Cafu from that period and plonk him in the game now and he would fit like a glove.

And as good as he was going forward, he was a tough nut to beat defensively, quick to recover and usually well positioned.

It will of course, always be up for debate and down to preferences in generation but for me, I wouldn't have chosen another RB over him.

The best.
