Piatti The Great, Retires
29-year-old Ignacio Piatti touches down in Montreal, July 2014....If there’s one payer I could have chosen to watch week in, week out, in MLS it was Ignacio Alberto Piatti.
I feel fortunate.
Yes, there was always the argument suggesting the star-player’s wages could be better deployed to help the team, and I get that, but watching LIVE, in the flesh, seldom has a player provided so much excitement, so much pleasure.
He put bums on Stade Saputo seats, and frequently lifted them off those seats again!
He was a difference maker, he made an impact. Some would say... he was the Impact.
