this video is disrespecting to the god of football

@@Alex-trl what's disinformative in I want to know.

Plus he played with some terrible strikers there r whole vids of him making awesome plays leave the strikers all alone to just push it in and the would miss, he should have twice as many assists than he does

He was also strung out on cocaine.

Neither messi or ronaldo were not strikers either for much of their career. So that still puts it into perspective

@@Johny97_ not strikers but plays the strikers role especially Ronaldo

@@Quipie bro Why are you everywhere

@@Quipiebut, to put in comparison , barcelona on maradonas era scored 1.5 goals every game, barcelona on modern time scores 3.0 goals per game, because defenders were allowed to foul way more.

He would be better than Messi honestly

@blob no he wouldn’t he was more kicked than Messi if you touch Messi is an instant foul but in Maradona time that was not the case he was better leader than Messi and in ball ability they are probably equal but Maradona had more flair than Messi

@@Jondoe297.. defending is way more tactical and structured nowadays. Also players now also are way healthier and more athletic I.e quicker, stronger and fitter

@kop kop 2 cap

@@cjpearce1407 back in the defenders had more freedom to use their physique, hard pushes and even kicks were easy to get away with back then!! Nowadays defenders barely touch the players and it's a foul!! And btw he was 2 inches shorter than Messi too so there's no chance that he could've used his physique!

@@DiMonkeyLuffy but he played in the ultra defensive seria aswell which was hard as nails

That is exactly True. Everyone could have his own opinion and so have I. He was The Best there was and the Best there ever will be. D10S

I don't think that today's defenders are better than those of before ... besides, Diego's time was much more violent. None of the great players of today could do the same if they received the amount of fouls that Diego received per game ... and from the middle of the pitch Diego occupies the first 3 positions of the most beaten players in the history of the World Cup He is the most beaten player in the history of the World Cup Mexico 86 ... 53 fouls Italy 90 ... 50 fouls Spain 82 ... 36 fouls His performance in Mexico 86 is to date the best individual performance of a player ... nobody had that much influence on a team or national team

@@marcelodiaz8770 I totally agree. And he almost never complaint. Diego will forever be the greatest Player of all Time. He singlehandedly took his Opponents apart.

If we had stats for everything he could be described and everyone too.

Better than Masvidal knee

@RandomThoughts no he could't, Barcelona wanted to sell him, it wasn't him wanting to leave. Same mistake that they did with Ronaldo (in this case not giving him the salary he wanted, basically a guy like him you just sign a blank contract and let him put the numbers there). End of story.

Juan José Oñate this kind of one eyed sweeping nonsense is why it’s impossible to have a proper debate about anything in football.

Juan José Oñate so uefa ref’s don’t allow people to be kicked like South American refs. Well good. I’m glad about that.

@Juan José Oñate Ignorant! Messi carried his team in the final of a world cup like Maradona, they both didn't score in final but Maradona was lucky to have his team he scored 5 goals while Messi scored 4 and they've both been the best player in a world cup. Messi is the only player in history to have been the best in every International competition he has played, he has been best goalscorer in a Copa 6 goals and 2 assists and that's what you call mediocre?? The Fanatism is a disease I swear, you should be talking about someone who hasn't been best player once in an international competition like Cr7.

@Juan José Oñate Maradona would have beaten Germany and Chile with that Argentina?? You're obsessed with Maradona really, he has never scored in a world cup final like Messi damn it, so how did he win???? The Germany Messi faced was 10000000 times stronger than Maradona opponents " Messi is the only player in history to have been the best in every International competition he has played " everyone cares about it if you don't then who cares about Maradona?. Mascherano did what? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q8xnlMydnNy2cXk.html that's how Messi carried his team.

That’s what these idiots that make these videos will never understand. Opposing teams tried to break Maradona. Literally break his bones. Messi would never survive in that era. Hell, he isn’t that good in this era! His national team record makes that plain and simple. Messi sucks against the best players in the world. Serie A is not everything.

Dude you need to go watch those past games especially the World Cup. Players are straight up pussies compared to those times. Guys like Messi and Naemar would get eaten alive.

john booth bro did you just say that Messi wasn’t even good in this era? I understand where ur coming at with Messi not being able to handle the tough conditions that Maradona faces. But Messi has been and is one of the two top 2 players in this era.

john booth and also don’t forget Messi in this era: scored 91 goals in calander year (record), won 6 ballon d’ors (record), won 4 UCLs, scored 600+ goals for club and country, became top scorer for club and country, and plenty more achievements

The good old days when football was a CONTACT sport

Legendary football player, trash human being though... so, I'm sorry but I ain't gonna miss him... I got no respect for people like Maradona... literally no one has one good thing to say about him as a human being and that is tragic... they only try to find good things about him as a person to say now just cause he died... which is soooo hypocritical... I may be sounding cruel but it's the harsh truth... he led a horrible life, was ungrateful and rude to everybody and literally lived like a parasite, sustaining himself by taking advantage of a country that worshiped him like a god... I prefer to be cruel and honest than pretend he was something better than he really was just because "it's polite"...

No one said he was the best of human beings and no one cares if he was or not and no one asked for your opinion , saying that spits on the memory of a icon of football, everyone knows he took drugs and did some bad things yet YOU are the only one dissing him ive seen out of many posts and videos , and if maradona is a parasite why is napoli fans and his home country creating murals and shrines to maradona , im honestly disappointed a "fan of football" would say this

R9 was better ability wise and actually played against the best, r9s era had the best defenders and players collectively.

@Nebby Scumbold r9 used to get the ball high up the pitch and get past every1 including the keeper to score against elite players... something maradona couldn't do in a farmers league nor pele. Serie a was a farmers league in maradonas era. When r9 played for inter milan its a different story.

Science Talk that’s a tough one. Romario was insane and I believe he’s up there with the most official goals. But that Brazil team was very good. Yea it was a while since they won it but Romario didn’t repeat any of those heroics for Brazil again. On the other hand Maradona took not such a powerful Argentina to 2 back to back finals. While also takin charge of the toughest league in the world at the time. He was just different. I’ll Maradona any day over Romario.

Science Talk did you really just give me percentage stats. Maradona influenced everything from mid field going forward. All Romario did score goals and be a poacher for a team that was a lot better Argentina’s. You mentioned literally the 3 players that scored in the final. While i can name you the star studded team Brazil had from front to back. Don’t forget he had Bebeto. All he did was bully the weak teams that year. Only important goal was against Sweden. Reached the final and was put in the pocket of 35 yr old retiring Baresi. Romario is one of the greats and surely legendary but will never be on the same topic of Diego.

But not as big as his head😁

He is top 5

I Am Always Happy Not to discredit Maradona but the defending may have been tougher but not as technical newer defenders have improved their technical skills and speed.

My top 3 would piss u off then😂😂 Messi CR7 and pele then Maradona

At that time, Italian football was the undisputed best league in the world and the quality in that league was unbelievable. People forget context when we discuss great players in the past. He came out on top in spectacular fashion when quite a lot of things were against him. The world cup has to count for a lot of it. And Messi losing 4 finals in a row has gotta be a part of the conversation. He choked when it mattered most in his career. All those trophies and numbers for Barcelona are not gonna make up for losing the final in 2014, 2015, and 2016.

Why? Because u say it :v

Justice Champion Jaspion Also, there were many top class defenders before, and much better than now, you can take for example Bobby Moore, Daniel Passarella, Héctor Chumpitaz, and you can classify Frank Beckenbauer too.

Which is exactly why modern players are fucking better. If you don't wanna compare eras then don't say shit like "old generation players were better" cuz shit ain't true.

@@dannemesias9625 Is he better, simple could Messi survive in Maradona's time and vice versa..

@Mr Creosote Chiellini, Thiago Silva, maybe Ramos. A lot more names I could list as well from players just recently retired...

Again with much less competitive and aggressive opponents.

You forgot his cocaine, he used it too, to kill the pressure.

MO 5050 what are you talking about, every time Maradona hopped on the field they tried killing him. Today Messi and all the skillful players are protected by the refs. Back then they weren’t protected from the ref.

One world cup wonder!!!

@Tech Guy This is what happens when you rank players based on their Wikipedia pages lmaoo

@Tech Guy one of my fav players, ranks somewhere in the top 30 or 40

@Tech Guy He had an incredible peak, one of the best peaks I've seen but his overall career wasn't as impressing as some of the other guys in history who rank higher, Ronaldinho essentially had one of the best seasons I've seen in 05-06 but what followed was a mediocre 06 world cup and after that he was finished at the highest level, 2 mediocre campaigns at Barcelona followed and the rest.... meh. Other players just had a lot more longevity than him in the history of football so they deserve to be rated higher on my all-time list.

True

Im an englishman too, the 2nd goal i 86 i thought 1 the game must have stopped and 2 how did he go past players like they were not there, incredible.pro at 15, i ternational at 16 after argentina were world champs, he did it all when it mattered, ive never ever even todsy seen any player co trol and do things with a ball like he did.ask messi to join west ham adn see if he cud win the premiership, diego did that with a lesser team,on top of the pile and will always be there, god sed diego go down there and show em how its doen and return to me and he did

I think you're very unfair on players from previous eras. Of course technique and fitness levels will improve over time but you can you can only compete in your own time. If Maradona had access to all the sports science and coaching today then who's to say he wouldn't be better than Messi? In 50 years time are we going to say the likes of Messi and Cristiano are less skilful and talented than the players of the future? Think about your logic. You also don't mention that there was far less protection for players like Pele and Maradona. Check out the treatment Maradona was on the end of vs Bilbao in the 80s that included a horror tackle by 'the Butcher of Bilbao' shattering Diego's ankle and nearly ending his career. That was why Maradona was so angry in that brawl in the copa del rey final.

@@stefanlosty5394 I would say Ronaldo is overrated he's main advantage is the advancement in sport science doubt he would do great in the past. the things that make Messi great aren't physical traits necessarily its the way he can see the play before others can and that would translate into any era

How are they better than Cruyff (since you want players from that era)... Cruyff won 3 straight CHAMPIONS CUPS and Ajax was unbeatable... and after he left they never won again until 1995... and all his teammates say that "if he hadn't left we could have gone for 7 in a row"... Also, the bullshit argument "but Maradona won the WC"... Messi lost in the final of the WC while playing injured and also Maradona won 2 Copa Del Rey with Barca while Messi has won 100 league titles and 4 Champions League titles... Oh and the bullshit about defenders being better back then... yeah, cause the average bullshit defender of 1980's where the only skill 99% of the defenders had was fouling hard and being nasty is better than today's tactical defenders... yeah, sure... there was Maldini and Baresi... but today you have Van Dijk for example... how is that any different? Van Dijk is just as much dominant as Maldini and Baresi have been... but the average defender back then was dogshit... one change of pace and direction and they were gone... today they hunt you like bloodhounds... you pass them and in 3 seconds they're in front of you again if you don't run at full sprint speed... Anyway... stop the crap about Maradona and Pele... and put some respect to Messi and Ronaldo that are actually the 2 most dominant players in football history... their teams have been dominating european football for 15 years!!! In 15 years no other football star has come even close to them... they score 50-60 goals every year and people say "eh... who cares... it's inflated numbers"... well, why isn't everyone's numbers inflated then??? Fun fact... they did that even in the golden age of "Jose Mourinho is the truth" age when everyone was playing catenazzio and most games had very few goals if any... and these dudes still scored 50... Messi scored 93 goals in a calendar year ffs... Anyway, sorry for the long comment but that bullshit has gone long enough... i've seen Pele, I've seen Maradona and I've seen modern players... and Maradona fans really need to put some respect to Ronaldo's and Messi's dedication to their craft and admit they're ahead of Maradona and better than he ever was... and no... it's not easy cause only Messi and Ronaldo do it... no one else has...

well there is some truth in that you have to consider a lot while looking at stats including that Maradona played for a lesser team, but Maradona still lacked consistency, something the other goats do have. Maradona is goat tier worthy together with Messi, Cristiano and Pele but he doesn't particularly stand out to claim the goat title as his own, him the only one. These 4 players all have their different arguments to be the goat but no one of them can really claim it as the only one, neither Maradona. Personally based on talent Maradona is the best of them, 1986 Maradona is the best player that ever played the game, but like I said he lacks that consistency, and being the best ever is more about having talent it is also about the achievements, dominate the sport for years, winning tons of awards and that's where Maradona lacks it to really claim it alone.

@@louisg7147 Pele is a fraud... he scored 1000 goals against amateurs, Brazil won the WC even when he was out injured, so they didn't really need him and when he played in a pro league (brazilian pro league was formed) he scored 0.43 goals per game... meaning he was the equivalent goal scoring ratio of Olivier Giroud in Premier league... for real... this guy is the GOAT of football??? People need to at least learn some history before they say such crap... on the other end... Maradona won the WC but he only won one league title with Napoli, 2 cups with Barca which is nothing and a UEFA cup (which means his team was the best B tier team... which is not that impressive when you're considered as the best player in the world)... The title of the best player in the history of football can be claimed by 5 players... Johan Cruyff (the best football mind in history who led his team to 3 consecutive CHAMPIONS CUPS and when he left they never won again and got knocked out in the round of 16... and he also led Netherlands in the final of the WC and only lost to Argentina cause the cup was being held there and the dictatorship of the country wanted them to win and the game was a total setup), Ronaldo Nazario (before his injury he made every other football player in history look like an amateur), Ronaldinho (in his peak he was the most unstoppable player ever to play the game and the greatest showman we've ever seen) and of course Messi and Ronaldo for obvious reasons... even in the late 2000's and early 2010's that everyone thought Mourinho was the best coach on the planet and parking the bus was the norm for football games and very few goals were scored if any, these guys still scored 50+ goals per year with Messi even reaching that ridiculous 93 goals in a calendar year... both of them completely unstoppable...

Hahaha damn u killed me omg Rip.

All jokes aside, to this day Napoli has won 2 Serie A title. The 2 titles won with El Pibe as their leader. Imagine nowadays Messi or Ronaldo going to play for Sassuolo and become champions... and win the UEFA cup 😅

How can you say he can "win a champion league with a 2nd division team" if he never won a champions league with his teams? One player can't win an entire tournament,he can have a good majority in it but you can't win trophies without help.

@@sajadfadhel7727 I didn't say it but I do agree with Gullit.Try not to take it so literally. If you look at all she greats (Pele, Messi, Cruyff, Beckenbauer, di Stefano, etc), they always did it in great teams. Maradona did not have those teams and still won.

I was lucky to watch Maradona play live at the stadium, at his prime, when on Napoli, by that time the italian league was the world top league at the time, all the football mega stars were there, any team was a powerhouse, i watched messi and cristiano live aswell and, well, maradona was just in way higher level, gullit is absolutly right, this guy could carry a team alone on his shoulders and win the champions cup by himself, i know it might seem exagerated now, but believe me guys, if you had seen him play, you would understand, he is indeed the very best ever, and by far.

@@rswpt you are lucky mate to see DIOS on the pitch in his prime.

@@sajadfadhel7727 Try to get some context. At that time, the 'champions league' didn't exist - instead it was the European Cup and only the winner of each national league would get a chance to compete , along with the previous winner of EC (if not also the winner of its league). Therefore, Maradona had EXACTLY 1 CHANCE to win the European Cup (1987-88), the year after Napoli's first of 2 serie a titles with him as captain (and still their only 2 to this day). the second serie a title was won in his last season 1989-90 and so he couldn't play the European Cup/ Champs league in the next year. They lost to a really strong Real Madrid team that were en route to winning 4 consecutive La Liga titles before Cryuff turned the tables around 1990. Its easier to get multiple stabs at champs league when all you have to do is finish in the top 4 of your league; something especially in today's era of super cups is ridiculously easy as the gulf in financial power between the top 4-6 teams and others is waay too high - you basically need to come 4th out of 6 realistic contenders. In 80s serie there was the '7 sisters' - 7 realistic contenders for the title itself - which no league - none- have right now (restrictions of only 2 foreign players - not their being such high financial gulf etc were all factors). For context, Juventus finished 7th - yes 7th! in the year when they won the frikking European cup with Platini (84-85), and then they won the serie a the following season! Its like Man City or Bayern or Barcelona finishing 7th and then winning again. Per contra, I don't think there has a single season out of the decade and a half Messi and Ronaldo played when they didn't play champions league. Maradona also had only a couple of stabs at UEFA cup (years after the two other times Napoli finished runners up in serie a) and he won it once. Don't confuse the UEFA cup of that time with the current Europa league which has 4th - 6th best teams of major countries and 2-3rd teams of other leagues. The UEFA cup at that time would have the 2nd placed teams from all major and minor European leagues. You can imagine that some of those 2nd place teams may on paper or immediate form be even better than the last years champions. you know who they beat in that UEFA final of 1989- Bayern fucking Munich. the same Bayern had supplied many players to the World cup finalist teams of 1982 and 1986 and winners of 1990. Like I said, a bit of context matters. If you were expecting Maradona to have won 5 UCL trophies, you have none.

Srce Moj hmm let me see

They did that because they weren’t tactically as astute as todays defenders

it says nothing, you can say that for messi too

@@cxmxqx if only messi was attempted to be killed in a football match .

@@southamptonfan3460 you never seen THAT match of him vs real madrid

Totally agree! And I'm even older than you!! I saw George best at his peak, remember the Dutch teams of the 70s, and appreciate Pele's legacy (world cup winner at 17! ) But Maradona as you say was a phenomenan!! We are lucky to have witnessed Messi and CR7 the last 2 decades, But ask anyone who remembers, how they would have faired in Maradonas era!! Defenders didn't just go out to kick you, but to try and put you in hospital!! Yes the greatest!

Alan Charlesworth defenders were butchers on the pitch like Gantille et al

@@alancharlesworth2153 Here's a more interesting question, was George Best overrated? I ask because I was too young to see him play and what video footage I've seen of him does not seem as impressive as his reputation....

@@thewonderingenfp2798 ah! Different eras, different opinions! By the time he was 21 he'd won league titles, European cup, been the leading goal scorer, player of the year, and European player of the year !! Yes he was special! Equally good on both feet, great header and goal scorer. But for me it was when he was at a standstill surrounded by players but could still find a way out! And had great acceleration. But it was all gone far too quickly!

He looked good because the defence was as good as grannies

90s Serie A was ridiculous as well in terms of world class talent

Messi isn't a striker

HYPE he is a CF a lot of the time otherwise a RW which is still a forward

He was much better than Pele and Messi has come near him yet but carry on Messi ok

Messi always plays deep like maradonna,still manages to score and assist, in way more technically advanced era than 86

@@efrinabler oh yeah what is technical?? Shitty defences and shitty managers and shitty everything! The Time Maradona played in there were no red cards show and rarely a yellow card (says paolo maldini himself)

And there was no Bosman ruling. That changed everything in Europe.

That’s so true, brother. They post videos on KZfaq without knowing anything about football

Again. No if you watch the games, defenders would make more direct tackles, they would slide tackles less and tackle from behind less. And they were less skilled and through more basic and non threatening tackles. Generally speaking.

@@clown7026 In the 80s defenders where tougher. In the 80s most games ended 0-0, 1-0 and 2-0 because of how strong the defences where. You would never see a farmers league giant like Bayern destroy a second division team even 4-0. Scoring was tougher and the pitch and the ball was hard and bad

true. except for pele

@@thedictationofallah most games ended that way because after a team scored they would sick back in defence for the rest of the game, not because of how good they were at defending.

@@clown7026 Actually no. Time wasting like that was a thing in the very early 1850s-1870s. Cleary you didn't watch the old 80s games nor lived at that time I can name you at least a million legendary defenders maradona faced

@Tech Guy Football is not a religion but Maradona is.

For Argentinians and napolitanas he’s God

@Tech Guy Napoli was about to drop to 2nd division. WIth Maradona they won the league and the European cup. Pele never played in Europe. He's overrated.

@Tech Guy Well, Pele wasn't even allowed to play in Europe let alone winning anything. Besides, winning eufa was quite impressive for a weak team like napoli. It was quite unheard of.

@Tech Guy Napoli was doomed. They placed 12th in 83-84. But after maradona they won the league twice in the following years. www.worldfootball.net/competition/ita-serie-a-1983-1984/

When a footballer will retire soon. There would be a new king of football.
