His story is appealing on many levels. What strikes me first is the cozy
nostalgia of Serie A in 2001. That Verona team had a lot of players who
went on to bigger things. The Verona of Frey, Adailton and Mutu. With
players who would make a career at Parma: Gilardino, Bonazzoli, Morfeo,
not to mention Prandelli. With Laursen, who would sign for Milan. With
Camoranesi, the oriundo, who would lend creativity and dribbling to
Lippi’s all winning Italy; and keystone of present day Juventus, of
course. With Oddo, the most abused of all players, who allegedly had
secured a transfer to Lazio in mid season and didn’t seem to try very
hard. With the Parma veteran Apolloni, his last season before hanging it
up.
