Happy new year DDOF=DAILY DOSE OF FOOTBALL and to everyone🤯🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

You should have used the same music 🎵 from the original video.

Great tribute to my all-time favourite player

It's disgusting that KZfaq took down your previous Roberto Baggio video, but then this is how the platform now operates. They care more for politicians, corporations and celebrities than independent content creators such as yourself - the very people whom KZfaq built their success on. I strongly recommend you mirror your content to other platforms such as Odysee. Superb video btw, very comprehensive. Did you know that Baggio recovered in record time from yet another cruciate knee ligament inury at the age of 35? He worked his ass off to be in contention for a place at the 2002 World Cup. He was still the best attacking player in Italy at the time and so it was extremely annoying that Trapattoni chose to ignore him. Despite having a great squad in 2002, particulary in defence and attack, the team itself was woeful and devoid of imagination. They only just scraped it out of the group, and while they were unlucky to go out to South Korea due to a crooked ref, if truth be told, they were never going to win while under Trapattoni's out-of-date, defensive tactics.

I'll make a simple,honest& straightforward comment about RB! When he was playing at the height of his ability..Week in&out doing some amazing&magical things for Juve,Milano and of course his National Team,this was being done,when he was facing seriously Hard tackles&many fouls of course,! And it may sound trivial,but the Ball was a lot harder&football Pitches /surfaces were not like u see now!! And yet Roberto Baggio would perform like a Master Technician and sometimes a Magician out there! And as much as I respect the Skills,ability and Genius of Messi and CR7, I could not see them doing what they do now,back then! Great players as the are,they both have benefitted from the points mentioned..

He was a 10 and a 9 in the same player. That is the magic of Baggio.

What people forget is even if Baggio scored, Italy was still down a goal. Bebeto was up next and would have sealed it anyway.

If Baggio would have scored the penalty, Italy could still would of lost as the Brazilians had the last shot.

@@shimarin1647 yes with a high probability you are right!

@@ronbonora7872 if baggio took first penalty he might've scored it, perhaps different result...

Oh I love that quote and I knew about it, should have put it in the video...

Italy have become Brazil unwanted players, very soon Brazil vs Italy becomes Brazil vs Brazil

Baggio is definitely not as good as this video acts like

@@amsterdam7956 well he's considered by many as the greatest italian player ever, many experts consider him one of the greatest of all times so idk if he's overselling him

@@amsterdam7956 I am Italian and he as Matteo said he is considered as the best Italian ever. I would say Totti, but I am romanista 😁

He and zola

I remember Nigeria from 94 especially from the game with Argentina, Nigeria had so much talent and individual skills but zero tactical discipline, they were great to watch always playing happy football, Okocha and his dribling, Amunike, Okechuku, Yekini, that was great team, we were kids back then and tried to imitate them

@@markokarko but personally, I think Nigeria is the best African team after Egypt! Today's new FIFA ranking placed Nigeria on the third place under the African teams! I wish you all the best from Italy!❤🦾

Hagi, Pirlo, Baggio, Guardiola... Brescia sapeva il fatto suo...

and that goal on pirlo assist dude.. what the fuck! ma di che stiamo parlando uno dei miei goal preferiti di tutti i tempi

Same, I had the privilege to watch one of his last games at Brescia, when I was in Turin. It was Turin-Brescia and Baggio scored as well :)

@@UTJK. il brescia era davvero pericoloso

Loved in Croatia also. He is demigod of football. Imagine that he was protected from referes like messi and ronaldo

No wonder man, he was awesome

Thanks dude I wouldn’t have known what city Milano was if you hadn’t put the translation next to it

Can you blame them?

@sebbjerre are you a cage the elephant fan?

@@jackfinnian2064 why you ask?

Very true

Serie A 1989-1998 was the best and strongest league of time in Europe

right on man. Gollazo !!!

@@amardizz821 Campianato, di calcio, ITALIANOOOOOO

Yeah I still follow serie a to this day because of that show

Right on! One of the best football shows ever. James Richardson was the perfect host with his wit and humour. Seria A at the time was the best league in the world imo. Btw, Roberto Mancini has got to be one of the most underated players from his generation. Consistency and class.

You spittin

Or Bruce Lee fighting.

Great comparisons

@@shuajoblake1166 Thank you 👍🏾

@@petervarone8462 More like Ali or Tyson.

what are you poetry in motion😂but well said

he was just diamond only , not glass , brittle like diamond but playstyle and shine also like diamond (diamond is hard but brittle , it can break kinda easily by hammering aswell)

Special player, deserved more

This is Zidane comments at 1998 😂but true if he play italy more chance to win the world Cup 1998

It's not only g/a with baggio. His touch and ball manipulation was GOD level like on the level of Messi, Zizou, Ronaldino or Maradona some of the best technically gifted footballers ever.

Recently Christiano Ronaldo was benched by arrogant coach when when he was at his last world cup.

@@ssa6227 dont you dare to compare lately Ronaldo to Baggio man,Ronaldo is weak link everywhere he plays in last 3 years,Roberto was on his peak,simply magnificent when coaches decided to bench him.Imagine its like Zidane and Mourinho would bench Ronaldo when he was in top form,that would be more appropriate comparison.

Baggio often lamented that it was only his first and last coaches that ever understood him (at Vincenza and Brescia). Everyone thought Carlo Mazzone was mad for bringing Baggio to Brescia, but in those last four seasons, we arguably saw the best a veteran has ever offered the sport in the modern age. Mazzone said this about him - "Roberto Baggio was the best Italian fantasista; he was better than Meazza and Boniperti, and he was amongst the greatest of all time, right behind Maradona, Pelé, and maybe Cruyff. Without the injury problems and the difficulties with his knees, he would have been the very best player in history."

Absolutely he drag that Italian team all the way to the final, Baggio and Romario were 2 best players in that tournament.

Yes he was one of my favorite players as well

True. That's pretty accurate

Italy have become Brazil unwanted players, very soon Brazil vs Italy becomes Brazil vs Brazil

He’s a player that can shine on any team, with or without any great coach. And that’s the reason they dislike him

Lies again? Rob Bank

Berbatov is sick, i really should

Berbatov was a G!! This is coming from an Arsenal fan too I might add so that says a lot. Still though satisfyingly he never won a thing until he left Sp*rs 😂

Fantastically Technically gifted player,but moody and Lazy..

Berbatov was underappreciated. Maybe not underrrated but many, especially Man U never had enough respect for what he did. He was my favorite player of Leverkusen at that time. Great duo with Voronin

@@pandaman1331 i just wanna say as a Manchester United fan myself, that I loved Berbatov! He was insanely gifted! Just imagine if he actually had speed too! He would probably be top 3 best player at the time! He would also have been a better player if he wasn't so moody.. he was always a fan favourite when he played at United, but sometimes it could get annoying to see him when he was really moody, but that just added character. At least I think so.. And I don't think he wasn't respected at United? All United fans I know loves Berbatov.. maybe a little less now, because of his words as a pundit.. ( very often say's more or less shit about United players ). Although some of them deserve it from time to time these years. But some of them he's just unfairly harsh against.. But no matter what, he will always be a legend and one of Premier league's most gifted players!

that's awesome, I wish

he's awesome

100%

Cr7?

@@makaranddesai6139CR7 isn’t in the same bracket as Messi, Maradona, Baggio, or even Zidane, for natural talent and finesse. Ronaldo is probably only the only player out of the consensus top players of all time, that ain’t naturally talented, in its purest sense. Cristiano is aesthetically ugly to watch imo, in comparison to the natural flair and elegance, of a Baggio/Zidane/Messi/Diego. An analogy i tend to use, is, Ronaldo is factory build, a machine, a physical specimen, every component part, is state of the art, all his skills are taught, programmed through practice and repetition. But Baggio, Messi, Maradona, they’re God made, everything they do is pure natural instinct.

@@thesmithsnerd even during Manchester united days? When was skinny and the world was mesmerized by his skills and tricks that flair Watch som highlights of young ronaldo Manchester united You still feel he's aestheticallly ugly?

@@makaranddesai6139 watch some highlights of young Ronaldo? Lol. I’m 37, I’ve been watching Man Utd since 1993. He was a show pony for his first 3 years with us. He doesn’t even get in our all time Top 10.

Exaclty...cr7 is dedication 110 percent, a lot of raw talent but no.messi baggio or Van Basten ( you should add him I guess) their carreers are similar in some ways...

Sadly, he will always be remembered for his World Cup 94' final performance against Brazil.

100%

Even superb is an understatement its out of this world

He pronounced 'r' as the spanish 'j', much rather sounded portuguese 'r'. Spanish speaker do not pronounce 'r' as it sounded in this video, which by the way is a greaat one.

@@Joelll15 That's probably because he's from Portugal 😅

at that time serie A was way better than Premier League, so no reason for him going compete in a less competitive league. Cantona was good but i guess Baggio talent is way over. At that time he would crush any defence. Some years later Gianfranco Zola did good in Chelsea and he was Baggio back up with national team.

Baggio and Cantona amazing players

*Would've

Cantona is good, but Baggio is leagues above him.

Perfect for Manchester united!! No doubt

They're different kind of players. Del Piero looked stronger, quicker, while Baggio was way more technical, but met many coaches who didn't know how to handle this kind of a player. He had the technical proficiency of Zidane but he played too forward to be a playmaker. He was good enough to be a striker, a center forward and a CAM, but he never found the right space in teams who were searching for players perfectly fitting their role. That's why his most memorable campaigns were on minor teams like Bologna or Brescia, bringing them to unimaginable levels, and it's there where he is still regarded as an icon for the teams. Fiorentina, Juventus and Milan had so many great names, but Baggio is the only one who had the modesty to play for minor teams for the true passion of the sport.

In the players born after Baggio nobody comes close to him. It's an honour to be even compared to him for players like del Piero and Totti.

@@brutanedda3107 baggio at Fiorentina was faster than del piero and baggio played some of his best football at Fiorentina and Juventus remember his 92/93 season

@@kcapo89 I think that speed wasn't what made him special, he had supernatural precision and dribbling technique but he never had to run a lot, that was what it looked to me. I mean he never looked fatigued, on a rush, that was what made him so elegant, like Totti. Del Piero was way more physical and "pragmatic" in my opinion, he was a different kind of italian player. I remember an interview of this podcast kind of thing here in Italy that is called Bobo TV (it's held by Adani, Cassano and Christian Vieri as hosts) and they had Pep Guardiola on and asked him about Baggio in the brief time he played with him in Brescia, and Guardiola said that his positioning was uncomprehensible, he was always in the right place at the right time and nobody understood how it was possible. He saw movements seconds earlier than any other player on the pitch, and I think that was his way to compensate the fact that he wasn't able to play on strict spaces as it would've be damaging to his very precarious physical condition. He played CAM/CF with the mentality of a striker. It's like putting the ability on the ball of the finest dribblers of all time (as to say Zidane) with the vision of Pirlo and the positioning of Inzaghi. He peaked so much that coaches didn't know in what role he should've actually play. That's why he became the substitute of players that embraced their role in a more conventional way, and it didn't make justice for Baggio at all. But his main traits, in my opinion, were vision, positioning and dribbling ability, and really no other great italian player had all three at the same time. Also a very rare thing you see, which is really something marginal I guess, maybe even stupid to say, is when players use their brains aside their feet. Totti was so good, but his "smartness" was almost muscular, he had smart feet. Players like Zidane or Baggio, they were cerebral. Everything they made they made it out of a genius mind applied to football. They knew so much more than anybody else on the stadium. It's like they are enlightened by something else, their like Gods. Maybe I'm exaggerating, but maybe that's what they made these footballers legendary.

Good call. Some other poster here tried to rate Del Piero and Totti as highly as Baggio. I had to laugh.

Yeah, with modern therapy he could have been the GOAt

They was paying the big wages back then

you're welcome!

Happy new year!!! Hopefully something good 😉

Gascoigne too, the other standout of Italia 90

Batistuta! I've been meaning to make one on him for ages

@@DailyDoseOfFootballYT I feel sad about batigol.. he was a beast on the pitch but i read an article about his injuries after his retirement. He was in great pain on his old wound and he couldn't get up from his bed. At the end he wet himself on the bed.. i was sad reading that..

@@tatweilam7853 Woah, i literally just finished a whole script about him and it is really crazy indeed

The irony of the fate of that penalty is that at the time he was the best penalty scorer of the Serie A ever.

Agreed but he shard that title with Van Basten....both don t recieve the credits they deserve I think....

@@markschiering3212 i think he is definitely appreciated more now. Scoring goals back then was pretty difficult against some of the best defenders that have played the game. Serie A in the 90s was similar to the Premier league now, only better. The best players and coaches were there and tackling was also still allowed.

Salah

@@dirkdiggler7317 He's more like a worse version of Messi, but yeah Salah's style is also similar.

Happy new year!

Thanks man, and you're right, it's 5 out of 6

I have an idea something you can add / fix on your next / previous vids OP @Daily Dose Of Football.. (if you want to fix all of them that would be superb) you might add the very year of the season (if not the date) when the event took on.. this is crucial for your content to make it easier for viewer to digest & remember the fact of that era.. by the way love your work mah duude.. can i request for the next profile: Matthias Sammer.. THX!!..

Thanks, yeah I'll keep him in mind

@@DailyDoseOfFootballYT yeah please do so I think he is underrated and he was the soul of Arsenal.....no one has ever replaced him Arsenal made a huge mistake by selling him to Juventus

The first "Galactic" Italian team was late-80s-early'90s AC Milan with Maldini, Baresi, Donadoni, Van Basten, Gullit, Rijkaard and Costa Curta. No other Italian team was as good. The only other club side on that level was Barca '10. Mourinho's Inter and Madrid before Beckham won the same trophies, but they did it via coaching tactics, grit, or individual talent; never all three like AC Milan had around '90.
