RIP
A flawed individual, but genius on the football pitch1 -
Sent me to bed in tears as a 6 year old after his cheating at the 1986 World Cup.
Sent me into a state of wonder at some of the incredible things he did with a football. Like many born with a god given talent there were flaws to his character, but you couldn't deny his place as one of the top 4 or 5 all time greats.
RIP.8 -
Was lucky enough to go to Buenos Aires earlier this year and visited Boca and the Bombonera. Whole place is like a shrine to him. Very sad about this, he clearly had many demons and has done a lot of terrible things but he did bring joy to so many. RIP el pibe de oro.3

Imagine my Scottish family will be upset with this news. Absolutely loved north of the border.
Anyone ever see get to see him play in the flesh?1 -
the only player who carried a team to world cup victory by himself
That 86 team was average in my opinion7 -
He was more than a legend to Argentinians, he was a hero. The world lost one of it's truly special players. RIP Diego0

Football legend Diego Maradona has died at the age of 60.
The former Argentina attacking midfielder and manager had successful surgery on a brain blood clot earlier in November.
It was then announced he was to be treated for alcohol dependency.

A Football genius but el loco, even his supporters would agree on that.
I can never forget the "hand of God" non goal that was given. (That's why some form of VAR has to be used for gross errors like that) Maradona showed in that match he was a cheat and also he was a genius with a football at his feet. What a paradox in one football match.
In a parallel universe the hand ball was spotted and disallowed. Maradona is later fouled on the half way line as his amazing dribble started.
England win and...
Football wise Maradona is up there with Pele, Best, Cruyff, Messi and Ronaldo.
On the pitch he was magic but personally I found him boring and tragic off the pitch. I guess he needed to constantly be on a high to replicate his feeling on the football field.
RIP Diego if I wasn't English I may have been a fan.

RIP. He can give God his hand back now!3

Truly gutted by this - loathed him at the time of the 'hand of god' but he was an incredible footballer, and 2020 continues to bring sadness.
RIP Genius0
