Jonas Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) Had heard he was ill but just assumed he'd pull through, despite extremely first hand personal experience to the contrary in such matters. Gutting stuff as he seemed and was impossible to dislike as a player or manager even taking the Samp/Italy bias out of it. Have a Sampdoria shirt from his era in my drawer in my bedroom even now (with a few others) probably down to my first Italian match - Inter v Sampdoria 90/91 critical title game, was the most engrossing match I'd seen up to that point. The commentary on Vialli's goal said it all "grown men, hardended football watchers are scarcely able to turn their eyes to this, and surely its two this time, it is! the sommersault of celebration from Gianluca Vialli".

frankpingel Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 RiP, listening to some of the tributes to him it does seem he was a great person to know. A good player but a greater man, very sad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Green Balls Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) Really shit news. Phenomenal player. Synonymous with the PL. Amazing that he was old and at the end of his career, and all of his great achievements at Sampdoria and Juventus were in the past, but he was still the highest quality for a few years when he went to Chelsea despite being Gullited.
