When Vieri moved to Milan, some cheeky stupid Milan fans dared to say that they actually prefer Vieri over Del Piero.
Now, when Vieri proved again that he's a mercenary, I just wonder if you feel the actual difference between the players. Eveyone shall feel proud that Del Piero plays for Juve, because Del Piero is one of a kind.
No, I'm not talking about the fact that Vieri is a mercenary. Lazio, Juve, Inter, Milan, Monaco, Atletico, whatever. That he has no heart and soul, that he doesn't feel the loyalty and the love that Del Piero feels, that he's not an icon like Del Piero.
I'm not talking about that, since that's a given, that's obvious. I want to draw the difference between a player that stays and fights through difficult times and a player who doesn't. Vieri was worried from the battle with Adriano, and he knew why, so he thought he'll have a better chance in Milan. Then Gila came and owned him, so he knew he's fuked up, what with Inzaghi coming back from injury too. So he runs off again. But Del Piero stayed and always fought back whether from injuries or benching, he stays and fight and prove himeslf over again, like a Pheonix he rises from the ashes, from any defeat to new and exciting triumphs.
And while Vieri left to France, Del Piero was just completing his hattrick and becoming the Juventus all Time Legend. That's the stuff that divides true champions than just players... that's what makes Ale so great. He never gives up. And in the end he has the last word. Every time . Amen .
