I will never forget watching him destroy prime Inter live, what a player he was! Huge Paleemo fan ever since evem tho how bad we are doing right now. Thank you for a great video 🥲
Miccoli was also conspicuously absent from the Azurri in the 2000's. I remember reading suggestions/confusions about his relationship with Marcello Lippi and that his absence from the national team may have had something to do with Lippi managing Juve before Calciopoli and the azurri after. I love this video but i remember feeling like he was a hero for testifying in the calciopoli scandal. I'll never forget his PK approach and still wear his Palermo jersey proudly
Italy was a powerhouse of football. Back in his days he was an absolute beast, one of the greatest I’ve ever watched since Ternana Serie B. Still he couldn’t make it in the national team due the like of Del Piero and others. Now Italy would give the world for a player like Miccoli.
Roma fan here (I just miss that era, not so interested in football nowadays although it's still enjoyable to some extent), and I've always been fond of Fiorentina and Palermo due to this guy as well. Midway through the video atm and I'm ready to see how he fell from grace too. Many of the old-school "heroes" of our teen years just hit different now, especially after understanding how petty they were/had been, later on. Sadly, football has never been clean and it'll never be. But everything can be enjoyed for what it really is. Seems like Italy won't be able to return to its golden era and celebrate to such extents but Roma and Fiorentina and Atalanta, and maybe others too, will continue getting close to celebrate... This season, I guess my country (Greece) ended up getting more European trophies but just the comparison feels wrong to me. Italians were on another level football wise, and we on the other hand mostly rely on different things to win, atm... There's some talent and heart/passion, but... you don't want me to start to criticize each player/guy, and the organizations. At least we historically know how to pick some foreigners, which makes up for the national shortcomings lately. I'd argue some of the past squads deserved a trophy more than any of the current ones. In basketball and other sports, things are actually better and a bit more healthy for sure. But enough of my off topic. I'll have to go through the rest videos too and maybe feel even more nostalgic, after finishing this one. Cheers, keep enjoying things, ppl.

Kids these days will never know players like this. Miccoli, gattuso, etc. true legends
Forgotten players of the game
