Shehan posted this comment yesterday and it stuck with me all day, I had to post it. For some reason Il Capitano has been on fire as of late and this kind of sums it up...
"are you guys kidding me??
MALDINI WAS MAN OF THE FUCKING MATCH!!!
who carried the ball up from the half to the other box and spread play to kaka’ on the left to cross to ambro??
PAOLO FUCKING MALDINI.
WHO WAS CLEARING THE BALL EVERY TIME IT CAME INTO OUR BOX?
PAOLO FUCKING MALDINI.
WHO SLOWED THE TEMPO DOWN WITH LATERAL PASSES BETWEEN DEFENDERS WHEN EMPOLI WERE TEARING US APART WITH THEIR HIGHER TEMPO?
THATS RIGHT, PAOLO FUCKING MALDINI.
IF YOU GUYS CAN’T SEE HIS VALOROUS PERFORMANCE TODAY, WHEN THE WHOLE TEAM LACKED PASSION, YOU SHOULD QUIT FOOTBALL.
today we saw what football is about, passion and character. today, we saw that in Maldini. he was the only one playing like he gave a shit. what a fucking stud.
show respect where it is deserved.
il capitano always said ‘you are only as good as your last game’. from his last game this morning, he should be crowned king.
MALDINI WON US THIS GAME.
if you dont believe me, watch it again; only a clueless ignoramus can’t acknowledge his contribution in todays game. he was THE fucking beast.
he is Paolo Maldini, the captain of captains. the football of footballers. the king of kings.
FORZA PAOLO"
It's emotional, raw, and just plain mean, and I loved it.
I would like to get a little discussion going about the chance of Il Capitano coming back for another season, as always all thoughts are welcome. I believe his health comes first, but if Ol'Sil opens his wallet to give the greatest defender who ever lived a chance for a sweep of trophies, then by all means Paolo come back, because Joga Bonito will be lost without you...
