My Take
Zarate is the kind of striker I have a soft spot for: not physically imposing at 176 cm, yet blessed with a poacher's instinct that travels anywhere. Breaking through at Velez and lifting a title before he was barely an adult told you the talent was real, and his journeys through Italy and England proved he could leave a mark in any league. I value forwards who score on pure feel rather than tactical polish, and that is exactly his game. He never quite became a global household name, but for me he embodies the romance of the classic Argentine number nine.
