19QOS19 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I don't get anyone thinking that Ronaldo mark 1 or 2 or Messi or Pele could have dragged mediocre teams to win stuff like Maradona did. If you're looking about quality in terms of influencing games, there's no question.I didn't think the Portugal side who won the Euros were all that impressive tbf. I'm sure they were regularly slated for how unspectacular they were in that tournament. I agree with regards to Messi mind you, he usually turns up missing in an Argentina jersey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Plus, for the two people that have brought that up, I don't believe Spain still controls Argentina does it? So where is the comparison? Incase you've failed to notice we're still colonising the Falklands and still control N Ireland. You would have had a point 200 years ago, not anymore. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sorry, i have nothing against you personally, your lies entertain me, but i will red dot any further such posts on this thread. Feel free to praise diego or start a ‘really boring facts about wars no one cares about from the 80’s’ thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pepp, we get it, Britain bad. Can you just forget that shite and celebrate the mad wee genius on this thread. Said it before but in this era with the protection now given to players he would be head and shoulders above Messi & Ronaldo, for me he is the undisputed GOAT. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) I see to recall that Maradona’s best goal at the ‘86 World Cup was against Belgium. Have I just misremembered that? At the end of that World Cup one of the TV companies (think it was ITV) showed all the best bits with Queen, It’s a Kind of Magic playing in the background. That was excellent and featured Maradona quite a bit. To add - I’m another in the Maradona GOAT camp.

Why do we never have "days of mourning" whenever someone dies? The Princess Di (wid) episode was the only time ive ever seen a "period of mourning" for someone, albeit unofficial. Maybe when Kenny Dalglish pops his boots we should lobby for a few days of greeting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
