Juventus fan here. What a player Vialli was, he could score in all manners a striker should - left foot, right foot, headers, first-time shots, shots after dribbles in close ranks, long range blasts, volleys, everything. He was very talented but also very mobile, his constant running could wear out a full defence. Always liked his celebrations, he exploded with joy when it actually made sense, otherwise he was just happy to have done his job. Nothing like the shows players put up today. He was sure of himself but not arrogant, actually he often came out as - if not humble - capable of listening. He was quite combative but also clean and loved fair play and especially playing for the team. And he was a clever nice bloke off the pitch too, never heard him say anything stupid. A great guy, a true image of the football that was, the romanticized but also truly more romantic game of the 1980s and 1990s, both for us Italians and I guess for you guys in England. So sorry he has left us
He is one of the main reasons I started to support Chelsea. Vialli is a true Chelsea legend first as player then as manager, he will never be forgotten.
Loved him at Sampdoria..should have won the Champions Cup in 92....Vialli was always smoking cigarettes...please dont ever smoke its not worth it...i hope he stays healthy...
Rest in eternal peace Gianluca Vialli beyond him being a wonderful striker and player what I remember most fondly is his gentlemanly nature and how he learnt English so well consuming as much British culture as he could. Condolences to his family and Italy, but especially his children and wife.
Never got to watch him live, before my time, but what a player, insane eye for goal, also have heard nothing but great things about him as a person. RIP
Vialli è diventato una leggenda in tutte le squadre per cui ha giocato. Alla Sampdoria, per lo scudetto e il ciclo vincente che si deve ai gol suoi e di Mancini... Alla Juve, quando dopo i primi due anni difficili si riscattò diventando il capitano della squadra di nuovo vincitrice del campionato dopo nove anni di digiuno e soprattutto dell'ultima Champions League bianconera, e poi al Chelsea, dove nonostante fosse a fine carriera riuscì a imporsi e a portare a casa successi importanti.
@@derekjermain sarebbe rimasto volentieri alla sampdoria..ha fatto errori nella finale di champions perchè sentiva la fine di un'era..e avrebbe finito la carriera come presidente della sampdoria..ha tenuto duro per anni prima di cedere alla juventus..comunque fa piacere che ogni squadra dove ha giocato lo ricordi con affetto
I got to know Chelsea during this era, the only club during that time with many Italian players. During this era, both the Italian league and its national team were top class.
Just heard the awful news that he's passed away. Not a Chelsea fan but utmost respect to this legend, what a player and by all accounts a lovely genuine person too. RIP Vialli.
Rip Luca, was proud to be at every home game in the 90s, watching you was an utter joy, thanks for the memories, you made those season tickets worth every penny. Especially the great 4-2 FA cup comeback vs Liverpool, rest well say hello to Wilkins for us x
Rest in Peace, Luca... as Chelsea fan since 1997, he is the first Bomber i ever watch in Chelsea jersey... before Jimmy Hasselbaink and Didier Drogba...
From a West Brom fan who loved that chelsea team. It was a privilege to watch you and chelsea beat us 3-0 in the FA cup 97, you came off the bench you were were wonderful. Zola destroyed us!. One more fight come on!!!
R.I.P. unbelievable player, I remember watching the game in the snow I think it was against p.s.v, it was on Halloween night and I just got in from trick or treating, it got to about the 70th minute and I remember thinking this is ridiculous the amount of snow coming down on the pitch
RIP Chelsea Legend Vialli! Such a joy to watch Vialli, Gullit, Leboeuf, Wise, Zola, Petrescu… made me lifelong supporter of Chelsea since i was 16yo… once a Blues always a Blues!!
Io ero piccolo e me lo ricordo abbastanza bene alla Sampdoria e poi alla Juve quando mio padre era lì a Roma nella finale vinta di Champions. Grande Gianlu grande uomo
He was just a great guy. A great player, but even greater as a person. He will be missed. He loved England, loved Chelsea and Chelsea loved him. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones. He was such a great person and it was a genuine pleasure to share a dressing room with him and call him my teammate. Sometimes you don’t fully recognise the greatness of someone’s talent until you’re in their presence, and that was the case with him. He’ll be very sadly missed.” Mark Hughes
Outstanding player. The fact that he was never employed in Italy’s national team between 94-98 gives an idea of what was the squad’s competition level at the time. A whole different era compared to today
What a shame that Sacchi, Italian c.t. didn't choose Vialli to play in USA 1994 World Cup and 1996European, i think it's clear Casiraghi wasn't at his level
In that time, players at the end of their career used to leave Serie A for the premier League (Vialli, Gullit, Casiraghi, Zola, even Padovano and Mancini). Now it s the opposite
Was a really interesting time back when Chelsea had these Italian players like Di Matteo, Vialli and Zola. Back in the 90's Serie A was imo the strongest league in Europe, so it was quite nice to have these players plus Ravanelli, Lombardo, Di Canio and Carbone all playing in the PL.
The Serie A was the best league in the world until 2003/4. From that moment on, the PL has been the best league in the world and it will be for many years, I reckon...
@@benjaminbreeg9838 I obviously watched Match of the Day like everyone else in England. But when it came to watching live 90 min matches on TV, I would watch Serie A matches on Channel 4.
Love those old 90's Chelsea shirts - so baggy and voluminous. Looks like he's about to take off! Forgotten how much white there was in those shirts. These shirts (from 97/98) may have been the last Home shirts to have this much white on the sleeves.
It's not only Chelsea's shirt, but all other teams. It's only recent decades that players wanted fitter jerseys which also started by the Italians during the world cups in 2002/2006 if not mistaken.
@@wpg5225 true. The 90's was the 'baggy' decade as far as clothes/general fashion was concerned. This of course spread across into sportswear, and football club shirts. It was the thing to wear things that looked slightly too big for you. Close fitting clothes are something that came in during the 00's, and largely remains the case today
R.i.p. Unfortunately never seen him play, but our strikers could learn from this man.. the runs he made were fantastic from the highlights I've seen from him
The Sampdoria team team that won the Italian league in 1991 was a magnificent feat led by Vialli (their only ever title) when considering it was the strongest league in the world up against the superb Milan team, The Inter team with the World Cup winning Germans, Juventus with Baggio, reigning champions Maradonas Napoli as well as the other big contenders with all world class players.

Rip Gianluca
As a child sitting in the stands of the bridge I absolutely adored you , 1 of my first footballing heroes.
💔
Go to Istanbul to win the Champions League in his memory
Me too man, well said. Remember watching the cup winners in the snow on channel 5! Grew up with this lot! Wise, vialli, zola, di matteao legends
@@ve2834 tromso away , list the first leg won at the bridge
@@chrisgrove4265 that would have been called off way before kick off. Orange ball though! 😂
@@chrisgrove4265 this was 98 zola ? Yes
Rest in peace Champion. You were a true legend. Forever in our hearts
Legendary player. Legendary manager. The Italian Trio: Vialli, Di Matteo, Zola
Don't forget ROCCHI
Casaraghi would have been class too
@@ataladin87 I
Class that’s all I need to do say 🤷
Left foot, right foot, headers, great first touch, lethal first timers. What a player, Chelsea legend
He's an Italian legend, too.
Juventus legend's
Samp-Juve-Chelsea legend!
Rest In Peace
Was about to type something similar but you beat me to it. An absolute gentleman too
I’ve never heard a bad word said against him. Great player. A much loved man. R I p.

Same here
he's been struggling with cancer but happily he seems to have overcome it, remember him playing for Cremonese before joining Sampdoria, great striker.
Loved him at Sampdoria..should have won the Champions Cup in 92....Vialli was always smoking cigarettes...please dont ever smoke its not worth it...i hope he stays healthy...
Today is champion with euro 2020🇮🇹
Good bless him
But this is nothing to do with private life.we love u
RIP legend 🇮🇹 you was such a class talent
Nostalgie. True Chelsea. Gullit, Zola, Vialli. Rest in peace!
he was part of the rebirth of chelsea, a complete legend, we love you luca.

The second goal on the snow is simply superb! Grande Gianluca, una potenza, sia in campo che fuori! Grazie per l'Europeo e Forza Azzurri!!!

Makes me nostalgic for players managers. Thanks for the memories Gianluca. Vialli Vialli Vialli Vialli Vialli
Rest in Peace, Luca...
as Chelsea fan since 1997, he is the first Bomber i ever watch in Chelsea jersey... before Jimmy Hasselbaink and Didier Drogba...

May he RIP and condolences to his family.
From a spurs fan.😢😢😳😳💙💙
I love this era of Chelsea. Why i fell in love with football as a child
A true footballer to bring to the English scene. What a joy to watch.
From a West Brom fan who loved that chelsea team. It was a privilege to watch you and chelsea beat us 3-0 in the FA cup 97, you came off the bench you were were wonderful. Zola destroyed us!.
One more fight come on!!!
Get Well Soon Vialli 💙
What happened??? :(
He just got the all clear! :)
One of the best number nine in Chelsea 💙
6.44 - 7.39 Gianluca Vialli and Dan Petrescu against Man United... both were incredible footballers
and that defender still had an excuse after that awful pass 😅
When the ball hits the back of the old trafford net it's vialli
What players we had in this era, great memories .
Gullit , Zola and Vialli. What a sick team that was
Di Matteo as well!
I cry out of nostalgia..great times..great players, great teams
R.I.P. unbelievable player, I remember watching the game in the snow I think it was against p.s.v, it was on Halloween night and I just got in from trick or treating, it got to about the 70th minute and I remember thinking this is ridiculous the amount of snow coming down on the pitch
the italian job.. damn i love that
Fortissimo Gianluca... Splendidi goal
RIP Chelsea Legend Vialli! Such a joy to watch Vialli, Gullit, Leboeuf, Wise, Zola, Petrescu… made me lifelong supporter of Chelsea since i was 16yo… once a Blues always a Blues!!

I remember vialli from the 86 World Cup and the great sampdoria juve side watching on football Italia on channel 4 great player and manger
VIALLI WHAT A LEGEND
Stay strong champion!!
*does he know*
"When we were class!"
Vialli had vision, he knew what could be coming and got ready for it.
Not a Chelsea fan but really enjoyed watching him play. Great player
Rest in Peace Gianluca thanks for all these years of passion and love and hard work for football.
Exquisite goals, especially the once scored on snow!
We need forward like this in Chelsea..
The best center Attack of all time
RIP Gianluca Vialli , striker Legend !!

Thank u Vialli. What a man. Legend of the game. I will miss him forever 💙💙
Gianluca Vialli ....A Pillar at Chelsea FC.......Thank You Very Much.....❤
Outstanding player. The fact that he was never employed in Italy’s national team between 94-98 gives an idea of what was the squad’s competition level at the time. A whole different era compared to today
Vialli was respected in Italy, but in England he was like a god, same with cantona with france and England.
gli allenatori scelgono anche a simpatia...Vialli purtroppo nn ebbe la fortuna nel mondiale del novanta arrivandoci mezzo infortunato...
What a shame that Sacchi, Italian c.t. didn't choose Vialli to play in USA 1994 World Cup and 1996European, i think it's clear Casiraghi wasn't at his level
Rip Gianluca your a amazing man and player
Who are all watching this again after hearing that the legend fighting against 2nd cancer.. 💙🤧
Legend Forever .. Stay Strong Gianluca Vialli 💙💙💙💙
exactly that mate
Rest in peace ❤😢
Watching now he's resting. Sad sad day
Rest in peace legend..
What a goal and what a volley you scored.
Much love from a born and bred Mancunian and man city fan...
The Goal against Schmicheal top class....R.I.P
RIP..my heart drops tears...😢
In that time, players at the end of their career used to leave Serie A for the premier League (Vialli, Gullit, Casiraghi, Zola, even Padovano and Mancini). Now it s the opposite
Also Filippo Galli
Petrescu used to play for Foggia
Fabrizio Ravanelli too
@@zyzzsslave2166 I don t remember Filippo galli! Ehehe
Before that time, nobody leaves Italy for PL. Every player wants to play in serie A
I love Vialli.. One of my Chelsea favorites
