My Take
Luca Toni is exactly my kind of striker. A towering target man from a small town in Modena, he scored over 300 career goals and stands among the most prolific Italians ever, just behind Del Piero. His 2006 European Golden Shoe season was a force of nature, and yet what I appreciate most is the unglamorous grind behind it, a late bloomer who clawed his way up the divisions. The famous ear-cupping celebration sticks in the memory, but so does the craft, a giant who was surprisingly clever with the ball at his feet. I have a soft spot for that kind of honest poacher.
