Into the Vialli (part 2)

Dec 18, 2019, 05:00 AM

Jimbo, James Horncastle and Gab Marcotti return with the concluding part of our special on the great Gianluca Vialli.

Having tackled Sampdoria and Juventus, we look at Luca’s move to England where he played for and eventually managed Chelsea to major silverware. Like a kid with the keys to a Ferrari, to quote Fabio Capello.

We also examine Vialli’s complex relationship with the Italian national team and his falling out with Arrigo Sacchi. A relationship now rekindled within Roberto Mancini’s international set-up. Plus the concept of “owling” and the 1994 World Cup final.
