This. In terms of individual skills and talent alone Baggio was a step ahead. But I'd still pick Del Piero for his fantastic career.

This is a good point. Baggio had that extra excitement to his game. He was the one that resembled the great 10s of the past the most.
ALex to me is, and will always be the greatest Juve #10 ever. However, this poll is about the greatest Italian #10 ever. And the one who captured the hearts of his country was Baggio. For those who lived it, it was like Beatlemania in Italy when it came to Roby. He was a nation's hero. Or, as a certain Juve #10 so accurately put it:
There have only been two footballers that have made me cry. The first one was Roberto Baggio; the second was Ryan Giggs."
—Alessandro Del Piero.

And People talk about Alex's major knee injury.
Roby had 3, not counting the two times he tore his meniscus.

Of course, having a poll like this, in this forum, is the equivalent of having a Donald Trump job approval poll on Breitbart.
Just saying.
