Quote:
“If I have to make a tackle then I have already made a mistake.” - Paolo Maldini
Certainly one of the most emblematic figures in the world of football. Now I've posted here 2 sets of stats, the early set of his career with Dutch trio when he played just as left back and the later era set when he played more central role in defence. Well young Maldini was a beast physically, strong, fast and tireless, good in jump and in offensive tasks but not so impressive in defensive duties. That's why another set is posted for now completely matured and vastly experienced defender with excellent reading of the game, anticipation, sense of positioning but not so fast, mobile and strong in jump like in the early years of his career. Maldini was perfectly two-footed player and has mainly played as a left-back, although he was naturally right footed, and then center-back. He demonstrated great intelligence and tactical flexibility. Able to tackle, in marking and in the air, due to his technical skills, speed and physical prowess is considered one of the greatest defenders and players in football history. An elegant and correct defender, was also blessed with a great sense of positioning and anticipation and was able to make excellent cross from the wing for his teammates. In his career spanning 25 years he won 26 titles, quite remarkable achievement.
you also have a set for his last seasons as a CB?
