Majority of the people that don't follow football will say that they heard of Totti, but not Del Piero, at least from those that I have spoken to. It's hardly a Messi - Ronaldo case where you have everyone know them. As a brand I'd say Totti was more famous maybe even due to being a prick and an asshole.
Besides the Del Piero and Totti choice, rest are normal answers, more popular choices (Zlatan is Footballing God to swedes, and Messi I can imagine even Ronaldos mum murmurs holy shit at his best lol).
But dont see what one would like Totti over Del Piero for, except maybe the playmaking aspect (and this kid sees himself trequartista like Totti was).
The kid is 19. The last time Del Piero had a good season was in 2008/09, when this boy was 8/9 years old. When Kulusevski was 12, Del Piero left for India. Totti was still around.
He doesn't even remember Del Piero.

Majority of people that don't follow football don't really know Totti but whenever I ask them they think they have heard this name somewhere. When I ask them "You know Totti?" Their answer is "Isn't it a condom?"
Well I must say they almost got it right

So did Pogba when he was that age, long gangly legs but we all know how that turned out. I was the first to point out the Bernie comparison but at least he does things well that Bernie doesn't.
