Cannavaro was definitely taller than that but you are right, his lack of height did not stop him from dominating much taller opponents in the air.

its a combination of various characteristics, i tought by mentionning size alone, it would be enough for you to understand.
physical strenght, "detante(jumping)" balance of mass and hight, are physical factors, ballcontroll in the air, and heading the technical one.
"they are to small" aka, dont jump high enough, with enough power to win headers, let alone controll them.
when chiellini goes for a header, he jumps quite high, but actually doesnt have to, since the sheer force he propels to the ball, is enough to win the air duel alone
drogba, eto'o,have this also
ibrahimovic to, but based on technique rather then pure power.
quag has more power then ibrahimovic, yet doesnt win nearly as much airduels

You do know that Trez is 190cm, right? I think it's hell of a lot more than 184cm!
The need for a decent prima punta is obvious. For me, regardless of our ambitions, we have presently only ONE consistently reliable striker, which is Quag. DP's form has taken a turn for the worse of late, which isn't surprising given how much he has played...still, his goals to games ratio remains commendable, especially for a man of his age. But as I have said many times before; what top team regularly starts a 36 year old in attack??? By 'top team', I mean the real upper tier of european football where we aim to return as swiftly as possible...Consider Amauri a ghost. Iaquinta is injury prone, hard working and capable enough to likely score a a goal every 2-3 games, but not intelligent enough to score more regularly, or to make the kind of runs which are needed to break down the smaller clubs which close ranks against us. In terms of intelligent running off the ball, only Quags (again) seems quality.
To cement ourselves into the top four, we need a decent prima punta. Someone to challenge VinnyCenzo for the starting spot, to lead the line, sniff out goalscoring chances, and put them away more efficiently and more often than the Amauri corpse and VinnyCenzo. This would allow Quag to play in his more familiar SS role...although...will such a move mean his very impressive goalscoring rate will diminish???deployed deeper, further from goal...????? Either way, 1 healthy striker in good form, 1 old man, capable of brilliance still but too often weak and flimsy and lacking any pace...and a battering ram with wonderful grinta, but not such wonderful feet. We need one more, and it makes sense to replace amauri.
As well as a prima punta, i would say only slightly less important, is to bring in an understudy or backup for aquiliani. So much of our play goes through that position now, that the players are becoming used to his presence...if he gets injured, who can play that regista role???? Marchiso is more combative than creative, as is Melo, as is Momo...Could we bring Ekdal back as his understudy???? Is the swede in any way suited to such a role??? Do we have anyone in the primavera ranks who Delneri likes, who can play the role???
Prima Punta + Aqui backup...i will be happy. Adding in any substantial improvement to RB and LB would be a dream come true, as in my mind both Motta and to a lesser but still serious degree, Grosso, should not be in our squad...
forza Juve...
