Opposite for me. I always thought he was an average-below average CB. As a matter of fact, the bolded part (which I agree with) is the perfect explanation of why the Italian National Team has struggled in the last 10 years. When Astori was considered one of the top Italian CBs (which again, I agree that this was the case) you know that you are lacking in quality in your CB department. 

Not trying to talk him down on this sad day. Just entering the conversation. He was clearly a very disciplined and respected individual. It's very unfortunate. RIP

I somewhat agree. He had his great moments but lurking beneath somewhere, was a mistake waiting to happen. But still, the guy did well for himself and his family should be proud of him for that fact.
