all those shit poachers who couldnt do anything but sit on the other teams 6 yard box and wait for the ball to come. inzaghi, RVN, klose etc

You DARE insult Klose? Take that back.

Puyol, that report Mourinho wrote about him really opened my eyes
After that I rewatched some of his games and couldn't believe how often he goes out of position creating problems for his team.

Pic related for me.

gattuso was really good in only one thing, and that was chasing and intimidating the fuck out of opponents, which worked when you were also surrounded by a stacked team
other than that, he was by far one of the worst players starting for a top 10 team in the 2000s

This, though I never rated Puyol when he played. All I ever saw him do was last ditch lunges and tactical fouling. To me he always got a pass because of >muh heart.

No one thought Gattuso was world class but having him there freed Pirlo to do what he wanted.

I think when you look at how Barca now struggles under pressure due to most of their squad being limp dick low test cucks, Puyol's role as a leader was immeasurably valuable to them and no amount of money they spend can fill that gap. I am almost certain that having prime Puyol in Liverpool that night wouldn't have resulted as catastrophic as it did because you know that man would be screaming wake up calls right in everyone's face until they pick their shit up.
