My Take
Gianpiero Marini is the sort of name that makes an old football romantic smile. Eleven seasons at Inter Milan as a hard-working defensive midfielder, a Serie A title and two Coppa Italia wins, plus the unsung honor of being part of Italy's golden generation. Defensive midfielders rarely get the poetry, but I have enormous respect for the runners who win the ball so the artists can dazzle. Marini later moved into management and earned a Gold Collar for sporting merit, which feels fitting for a lifelong servant of the game. Give me the tireless engine-room players over the flashy number tens any day.
