stevietwotimes:
Maradona is the best ive ever seen,
i watch youtube vids and am left speechless,the guys a genius.he was kicked from pillar to post and carried average teams (Napoli and Argentina 86' etc) but now you cant tackle which is right up Messi's street for his tiki taki football.
George Best 2nd :)
Pele 3rd cos he never tested himself outside of Brazil.
also think Ronaldo is a more complete footballer than Messi but messi is defo one of the best ever.
+1
Football was a different game when Maradona played.
Gentile an Italian defender said that he should have been arrested for the kicks he gave Maradona in 82.
South Korea went all karate( or what they do thereabouts) on him in the groin, chest and face in 86, no yellow cards for that stuff back then.
Slashed down from behind from the butcher from Bilbao and broken ankels , today he would have been better than Messi.
Can't imagine how good he could have been had he trained harder and not gotten into drugs.
just the aura of that man , at age 8-9 cant remember , saying that one day he will win the world cup for Argentina.
That was Epic !!
