Enrico Albertosi

Enrico Albertosi is the kind of goalkeeper I have endless time for: a man who lived in the loneliest position in football, where one error erases ten saves. Winning silverware at Fiorentina, Cagliari, and Milan and being remembered among Italy's greatest keepers is no accident; it takes nerve sustained across years. There is something poetic about a 182 cm shot-stopper nicknamed Ricky who finally wound down at modest Elpidiense. I respect the temperament more than the trophies, honestly. Keepers carry a pressure forwards never feel, and Albertosi carried it at the very top for a remarkably long time.
