Claudio Gentile
From Wiki: He man-marked Diego Maradona in a match at the 1982 World Cup, after which he famously quipped, "Football is not for ballerinas!" I mentioned him to the proprietor of the Italian chipper where they have a framed picture of the 1982 team. I learned Gentile was born in Libya. |

Romeo Benetti - I remember reading a newspaper article once & the journalist jokingly said if he was on the balcony with Juliet he would probably throw her off it

Honourable mention to Carlos Caszely, the first player to be red-carded in the World Cup (1974).
But was he hard? Wiki "He was revered by many Chileans as a supporter of the left under the Pinochet dictatorship and as one of the few leading Chilean footballers to declare his opposition to the regime." |
