My Take

Rolando Bianchi is exactly the type of centre-forward I have a romantic weakness for. Standing 188 cm and known above all for his aerial ability, he is Torino's eleventh-highest scorer of all time with 77 goals, which tells you he made his living in the cramped, physical space in front of goal. The pure target man who heads in crosses has nearly vanished from the modern game, and I quietly mourn that. There is a specific beauty in a striker timing his leap to meet a delivery. Bianchi was a craftsman of that fading art, and I respect that lineage.
