Pele is the biggest fraud ever.
525 of his goals were probably in someone's back garden in Brazil5 -
Think his goals scored record includes friendlies !!0

I absolutely loved Romario as a kid but he's also well known for massively embellishing his own record in order to get him to his 1,000 goal. Don't think anyone truly knows really what his record stands out because he used every tactic possible to grow the number to make it seem bigger than it was

yeah and he made everyone of those kids look like mugsFriend Or Defoe said:
Is that first one from a 100 Japanese kids v Barca game? You never see Messi that far from a team mate in a real game.Karim_myBagheri said:

As Denis Law said, a good player would always be a good player regardless of the era.RodneyCharltonTrotta said:
The best player to ever play. Played like Messi in an era where protecton from refs was non existent by today's standards.Hastingsaddick said:
Was reading a 'debate' on Facebook, whether he was better then Messi and Ronaldo...what do people think?blackpool72 said:A good mate of mine has Terry Fenwicks shirt from the famous hand of God match.
As brilliant a footballer as he was he will always be a cheating ,wife beating ,drug taking fat c@## to me.
Of course people may say opponents would be quicker and fitter now days than what he faced but then so would he and they wouldn't be able to kick and hack at him in the way they did back then.
I don't think Messi ever required this level of attention.

the falklands are oursFriend Or Defoe said:I'm not sure what is more embarrassing. Scotland fans having Maradona on the back of their shirts or English fans not getting over something that happened over 30 years ago.

I saw Madonna at Wembley in 1987. She was crap. Really don't know why I bought the tickets.4

I saw him and they mentioned his goals record for Argentina:
1977–1994 Argentina 91 (34)
After hearing this i was not really impressed, there is the old argument of best ever yet his goal ratio is 1 in 3. 1 in 2 club football if we were comparing with Ronaldo and Messi i assume they would beat that.
Due to cheating/ other reasons i dont really class him as one of the best but maybe thats because its not my era.0 -
He was at the Fifa event last night called Best
I always thought the ballon dor was the world player of the year yet ronnie won the best player in the world last night1 - Sponsored links:

My 1st World Cup memories are from 86, Diego was electric and will always be the greatest player of all time for me. The fact he was a cheating piece of shit just makes me like him more tbh! An absolute legend, although I only watched him maybe 10 times.
Saw a documentary where Steve hodge (I think) was talking about swapping shirts with him after that game. The othe players were furious with him haha!
On a related note, we were walking back from ninian park, after a defeat a few years back, and passed a geezer wearing an Argentina tracking top. He spat some abuse at us, but we had no idea what he was saying. Embarrassing beyond words.1 -
isn't the balloon door voted by sports writers and Fifa world player by international managers/football associations and fellow players?nth london addick said:He was at the Fifa event last night called Best

was meant to be a bit tongue in cheek, but i do think the bad blood between the 2 countries adds fuel to the maradona incident, been a few incidents between england and argentina on the football pitch.Friend Or Defoe said:
