Attack MindedINFO:Bruno Arcari was an inside forward who could play also as centre forward. He's a legend of Livorno, club he played in from 1933 to 1939, scoring 53 goals in 126 matches and capping once for Italy. He played also for several other clubs including Genoa, Milan, Bologna, Brescia, Cremonese and Reggiana. He retired in 1954.
Arcari's main position was centre forward in the first years of his career before some injuries forced him to move to inside forward. In fact even in a playmaker position, his playstyle was focused on scoring, taking advantage of his tactical abilities and timing to find a space left uncovered by a defender. He didn't have a huge physique but he was shrewd and extremely technical. He had sprint and smartness to make the next move, an offensive attitude that made him go always towards the goal and a shot not too powerful but not uncommon either. He managed to play efficiently in a position unsuitable for his not great temperament. He wasn't a methodical dribbler, he didn't wait still in dead zones, he didn't set up the play but he ran in the middle of it. He had a tendency to give constant flow to the action, valorizing a decisional ability rather than a thoughtful one. He seemed a centre forward who moved back momentarily because he never triggered the forwards but it looked like he was always activated by a spring and sometimes shots from 20 meters were delivered from his foot. Moreover he was a very good header and a penalty specialist.
