:clap: :clap:
It's insulting to hear little kids proclaim Messi or Ronaldo as the greatest. Maradona was a boss. 86 was world cup I was old enough to understand football and Maradona gave a convincing and thorough individual performance thats not been repeated since. Without him that Argentine side would have been very pedestrian

They probably still would have won, Maradona was such a force of personality. Messi is the better player but Diego will always be the bigger legend.

Maradona was too influential on the pitch. He literally carried the team on his back in 1986. I had his poster on my wall in Owerri back then. It wouldn't have mattered who their striker was. He was too good period. :clap:

At first, I wasn't sure I'd watch it but after writing this post, the memories have come back. Will certainly watch it now.

Some time you don't need to post if you have nothing to say,was Higuaín this last Copa that Messi failed to lift it?
2022 you will still blame Higuaín.

Better goal scorer, better creator, better dribbler and probably more versatile.

Saw it in the cinema a few months ago and enjoyed it. Remarkable life and an interesting reminder of how football has changed on and off the pitch - especially in regards to celebrity.

I am assuming that you watch Diego, He was one of the most influential player in a game,better dribbler,one of the best creator, better game reader, leader on the pitch, one of the game changer.
Messi only have better goal scoring as he play more as a striker.
Messi is not on Diego level.What he did with Napoli has never been done,what he did with Argentina has never been repeated.
It's an insult to even compare Messi to Diego,only thing they share is from same country,play for same national team and he wear #10 like Diego and both names start with M.

Messi reads the game better and is a better creator, game changer. I think Diego's on field personality shines and influences the game more but Messi is similarly missed by his team when he doesn't play just look at Barcelona's games earlier this season.

Go watch Maradona when he play and when he is not his team will move from been like City when he play to like Swansea.
There is a reason he remain the only player to dominate a world cup from start to finish.Win 86,took Argentina to world cup final in Italy a nd he would have won it in 94 if not the ban.
Maradona has won the biggest trophy and influence it,Messi is yet to do same.Messi only shine playing for Barca,/diego dominate every where he goes.Its an insult to compare both.I have said it if Argentina want to win major trophy drop Messi

Messi has won multiple champions league and league titles himself. Maradona struggled in both his spells in Spain, and no the country would not have the World Cup in 94, the whole reason he was banned was because he was struggling to lose weight before the tournament since he had hardly played games. If Argentina dropped Messi from 2008 to 2018 they might not have made any of the World Cups in between.

Napoli became UEFA Cup champions with Maradona not European champions. They were also regular qualifiers to European competition before Maradona.

It doesn't matter when I was born I know enough football to make up our age gap and more.

The problem with your argument is when Diego arrived at Napoli, their primary concern was avoiding relegation. They were that poor. He subsequently won 2 scudettos, 1 Italian League Cup and 1 UEFA Cup with Napoli. In fact the only 2 scudettos they have won in their history were inspired by Diego and they likely would have more had the Italian FA not vengefully & prematurely forced him out of Italy as retribution for Argentina eliminating Italy from the 1990 WC partly fueled by his courting Neapolitans to root against their country in Naples.

The key difference between Diego and Messi is Diego has a strong personality that transcends the football pitch and therefore able to convince his teammates to believe that the impossible is possible.
