A Gooner for real? ouch what a rocky road this season. I agree Maradona is the greatest footballer of our generation and these prima donnas like Ronaldo pall into insignificance when compared to the greatness of the man. Then again, one must not forget Ronaldinho possibly more skilful even than Diego, although not as powerful or as fast, Kaka too could be sublime.

Are you aware that Maradonna was a drug cheat?

Not fair. You're talking to a Gooner so I'd always favor my own 🙂

As for Messi... this will be wildly unpopular, but I must be one of the few
who does not rage about him much. Talented? Yes, but the team around
him is world class --and he will forever live under the shadow of his
compatriot, Maradona. How to top it? By doing what Diego did: put a
good but average team on his shoulders and win a world cup almost
singlehandedly.

Are you aware that Messi was pumped with hormones by Barcelona
throughout his childhood, hence he is technically a living cheat?

Some weed and coke here and there don't take away Maradona's genius.
Messi is a product of laboratory. Maradona is a kid from the ghetto who
partied way too much and still managed to make art.

I was going to accuse you of talking bollox, but then I realised you were joking.

I am not interested in his morals nor his behaviour. He's the greatest footballer I am ever likely to have the privilege of watching.

An interesting perspective on your view of morality, honesty and greatness in relation to cheating and narcotics abuse.

Actually I find it quite banal. However to someone obsessed by the morality of others and practically incapable of viewing anything but through a narrow moral lens I can see why it might be appealing to you.

What is banal? What an odd thing to say.

How has this thread turned into a debate about football greats and by page 4 Roy and Robbie Keane haven't been mentioned?

Beckham was more than just set pieces, add the pace that Giggs had and you would be talking about one of the greatest.

Dennis Bergkamp, Ronaldo and Cantona, the three best players to ever play in the PL.
