Alessandro Del Piero
Alessandro Del Piero, Cavaliere (born November 9, 1974 in Conegliano) is an Italian football player. He is the captain of Juventus and a member of the Italian national side. He was a part of the 2006 FIFA World Cup winning side.
Usually, Del Piero plays as a support-striker and occasionally between the midfield and the strikers (in the hole), known in Italy as the "Trequartista" position. He is not the tallest of forwards, but is certainly one of the most creative forwards in the world, rather than being a "goal poacher." [3]
Del Piero is renowned for his deadly finishing, and the ease in which he dribbles past defenders. He is an expert in dead-ball situations as he is among the world's best in taking freekicks and penalty kicks.[4] Particularly famous for inside-curling, dipping shot that he takes in the area that is up to 10 yards outside the penalty box, which is known as "La Zona Del Piero" meaning "The Del Piero Zone." [5]
Gaetano Scirea
Gaetano Scirea (May 25, 1953 - September 3, 1989) was an Italian football player and one of the greatest defenders of all-time [1] [2] [3].
Scirea is one of the only five players in European football history –join to Antonio Cabrini, Sergio Brio, Stefano Tacconi and Danny Blind- to have won all national and international trophies for football clubs recognized by UEFA and FIFA [1]. He played for the Italian national team for more than a decade during which he was almost irreplaceable as the leading defender, and became World Champion with the 1982 FIFA World Cup winning team.
Scirea was a graceful defender of great skill and tactical ability. In contrast to the ruthless tactics often employed by other defenders, Scirea was renowned for his class, fair play and sportsmanship. He was never sent off or suspended during his entire career, which is probably a football record for a defender of international level, and this says a lot about his temperament and the level of his skill.
He played the sweeper, or libero, role for most of his career, and contributed to the development of this position initiated by Franz Beckenbauer in the 1970s. Thus, Scirea would detach himself from the defensive line and contribute to the attacking potential of his team, frequently being involved in the build-up of goals, and sometimes even scoring himself.
Michel Platini
Michel François Platini (born June 21, 1955) is a French former football manager and midfielder, and current president of the UEFA (Union of European Football Associations).
Acknowledged as one of the greatest players in the history of the sport, he was one of the best passers of the ball in his era, and was also an outstanding goalscorer for his position. He is the only player ever to win three consecutive European Footballer of the Year awards, and in 1999, he was elected the seventh-best footballer of the 20th century in a poll by the IFFHS.[1] He is regarded as one of the most elegant players of his generation and as the greatest French footballer of all time.[2]
Platini was part of the French national team that won the 1984 European Championship, a tournament in which he was the best player and top goalscorer. He participated in the 1978, 1982 and 1986 World Cups, reaching the semi-finals in the latter two. Platini, Alain Giresse, Luis Fernández and Jean Tigana together made up the "carré magique" (French for "magic square"), the group of players that formed the heart of the French national team throughout the 1980s.
He was a notable free kick taker, as demonstrated by his numerous goals from dead-ball situations with the national team and with Juventus, where Platini played for five years and won most of his club career honours.
Platini was named Chevalier (Knight) of the Legion of Honour on April 29, 1985 and became Officier (Officer) in 1988. He was the French national team coach for four years, and was the co-organizer of the 1998 World Cup in France. He has also been the chairman of the FIFA Technical and Development Committee, and vice-president of the French Football Federation.

He joined the club in time for the 1928-29 season and would stay at Juventus until 1935, winning five consecutive league titles in 1931, 1932, 1933, 1934 and 1935.

His international debut for Argentina on August 10, 1924 was against Uruguay. Over the next 12 years, he played 13 times for Argentina and scored 3 goals. Orsi's career is strange by modern standards, however, in that he played for Italy as well as Argentina, allowing him to gain 35 caps and score 13 goals for his second country between December 1, 1929 and March 24, 1935. This also allowed him to be a part of the side that won the 1934 World Cup. He died in 1986 aged 84.

They were also known as "The Trio of Death" because of their clinical finishing.[citation needed] Juventus paid ten million pesos for Sivori's transfer, and from 1957 to 1965, he played for La Vecchia Signora winning three league championships in 1958, 1960 and 1961 and two Italian Cups in 1959 and 1960. With Juventus, Sivori scored 167 goals in 253 appearances,[2] remaining Juventus' fourth highest goalscorer ever as of 2007.

Vialli's career started in 1980 when he signed for local club Cremonese. After scoring ten goals for the club in the 1983-84 season, he was transferred to Sampdoria. His time at Sampdoria proved successful, as the club won one Serie A championship (1990-91), one UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (1990) - where he scored both goals in the 2-0 win over Anderlecht in the final - and three Italian Cups (in 1985, 1988 and 1989).
While at Sampdoria, Vialli made his debut for Italy, and was included in the squad for the 1986 World Cup. He also played at Euro 88 and was part of the squad which finished 3rd at Italia '90. His swansong with Sampdoria came in the 1992 European Cup final, though his side were beaten by FC Barcelona. He moved to Juventus shortly afterwards for a world record fee of £12.5million.
Vialli won the UEFA Cup in his first season with Juventus, but was left out of the Italy squad for the 1994 World Cup following a disupute with coach Arrigo Sacchi, after which Vialli declared he would be supporting Brazil. He won another Scudetto and Italian Cup with Juve in 1995, scoring 16 goals during the season, but Juve were denied a treble after defeat in the UEFA Cup final to Parma, despite Vialli scoring a spectacular second leg goal. He ended his time in Turin by captaining the side to a Champions League final win over Ajax Amsterdam in 1996
Raimundo Orsi
Raimundo Bibian "Mumo" Orsi (December 2, 1901 in Avellaneda – April 6, 1986) was a footballer, born in Argentina, who won the 1934 FIFA World Cup with Italy and the silver medal at the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
His career began in Argentina with Club Atlético Independiente (1920-1928; 1935), but it was with Juventus that Orsi would have most success in his club career. He joined the club in time for the 1928-29 season and would stay at Juventus until 1935, winning five consecutive league titles in 1931, 1932, 1933, 1934 and 1935. After leaving Italy, Orsi played the rest of his career in South America, appearing for clubs such as Peñarol in Uruguay and Flamengo in Brazil.
His international debut for Argentina on August 10, 1924 was against Uruguay. Over the next 12 years, he played 13 times for Argentina and scored 3 goals. Orsi's career is strange by modern standards, however, in that he played for Italy as well as Argentina, allowing him to gain 35 caps and score 13 goals for his second country between December 1, 1929 and March 24, 1935. This also allowed him to be a part of the side that won the 1934 World Cup. He died in 1986 aged 84.
Giampiero Boniperti
Giampiero Boniperti (born July 4, 1928) was an Italian football player who played for Juventus between 1946 and 1961; with 182 goals, he was highest goalscorer in Juventus' history for more than 40 years, now placed second, behind Alessandro Del Piero. He is the ninth-highest goalscorer of all-time in Serie A and was named by Pelé as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers in March 2004
Omar Sivori
Sivori was born in San Nicolás, Buenos Aires. Nicknamed el cabezón ("big head"), he was already playing professionally for River Plate's first team at the age of seventeen.[1] It was with River that he won the 1955 and 1956 league tournaments.
Sivori, Antonio Angelillo, and Humberto Maschio acquired the nickname "the Angels with Dirty Faces" when they moved to Italy in the latter part of the 1950's on account of their typically South American colour and flair. They were also known as "The Trio of Death" because of their clinical finishing.[citation needed] Juventus paid ten million pesos for Sivori's transfer, and from 1957 to 1965, he played for La Vecchia Signora winning three league championships in 1958, 1960 and 1961 and two Italian Cups in 1959 and 1960. With Juventus, Sivori scored 167 goals in 253 appearances,[2] remaining Juventus' fourth highest goalscorer ever as of 2007.
In 1965 he signed with Napoli helping them get second place in two occasions. He retired in 1969 returning to his native Argentina where he coached River Plate, Rosario Central, Estudiantes de La Plata, Vélez Sársfield and in 1974, the Argentine national team.
