      He was coked off his face half the time, if Messi was coked up you could be he would be just as good. Sad but true, try to understand Maradona for all his talent was about as messed up and horrid a human as you would ever wish to not meet. And no it wasn't just coke, he was raised in the lowest of low poverty, he was just a very bad person, father, husband, lover, friend, he was awful at it all, violent, aggressive, addict.

    He scores the most controversial goal in world cup history, followed by the greatest goal in world cup history, His love for the game was unmatched, I dont thiknk any footballer in history had the touch, the command over the ball as he did, He played the classic #10, an attacking midfielder, he came deeper to recieve the ball to create, BUT the seperation in my view from any other player is that not only was he the best midfielder on the field at any given time, but he was the best striker, the best scorer, who in history can you REALLY say this about?

    Some arguments for Diego as the GOAT had been explained in the video. Compared to recent years: pitches were terrible and the laws of the game were more permissive with fouls.
    I add that he always have average teammates, no one close to the GOAT debate.
    As for Pele, I think he did have great players in his teams. Example: Whenever Pele played with Garrincha (32 matches), they got 2.75 PPG (points per game) insane!

    I'm 55 year old spaniard, canarian, I saw him live in Tenerife while his time in Sevilla '92, already in his 30s but still full of magic.
    I first knew of him when he came with Argentina to play the Spain '82 world cup, everybody was talking about this new sensation, and that autumn he came to play in Barcelona F.C.
    In that world cup we still had Zico and Rummenige, Platini and Socrates playing, but man!! Diego was something else.
    The moment you saw him barely touching the ball, the first second you realized he was an absolute master, that impact happened to me also with a lesser degree with Ronaldo Nazario years later, Redondo, Zidane, Pirlo, Gascoigne, Iniesta, Ronaldinho, Messi and many others.
    The thing is, I've seen Maradona in the 80s make moves and artistic things with the ball, specially his control of the ball in the air, between his legs, shoulders and head, while dribbling very aggresive opponents, that I've never seen those replicated before and after him. His technique was like Jimy Hendrix in the guitar, Mozart in Music composition, unparalleled.
    Only Pele and Maradona stand at the top of the summit, and I think Maradona was superior.

      @@walkingbush5764 Messi has all the assets in terms of low gravity, speed, being able to turn direction on a plate as Maradona had, but that’s also where the comparison stops for me! What Maradona could do with a ball, and how he would apply it in his game within a blink of an eye is simply uncompareable to any other player ever! I think Messi has been the best player in the World from around when he got better than Ronaldinho, and to around 2018/2019 when Mbappé just have been having the edge on Messi in terms of speed and dribbling agility. Is Mbappé better then Messi in his prime time? No, and he never will be either! But all those times Christiano Ronaldo won Ballon D’or Messi was just a much better player! That also raises the question af validity of looking on awards and stats. RM was better than Barcelona those years Ronaldo won Ballon D’or, however that doesn’t necessarily mean that a particular player from RM would be better than a particular player from Barca.. And not to take anything away from those two the World stage in football did not hold that many and big star players as other eras in football history. What came out of Brasil during Messis primetime career? Neymar that’s it.. And for Argentina? DiMaria thats it.. African continent?? Sadio Mané and Mosalah??? Were they as good as Jay-Jay Okocha, Didier Drogba, Samuel Eto’o, George Weah and so on? No!! And DiMaria compared to Batistuta, Ortega, and even Maradona? Not in a million years! Or Neymar compared to Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Kaká, Romario and so on? Hell No!!! It has been easier to be considered among the best in the World in recent years compared to past times..
      Also in terms of stats it would be obvious to anyone that you likely to score more goals if you play on a team enjoying 70-80% of ballpossesion in the opponents half compared to 30-40% of ballpossesion in the opponents half. You will simply have better stats on a better team, it is as simple as that..
      I solely refer to and consider what I actually saw players do on and off the pitch by themselves. Anything else is useless to consider! And what Maradona could is simply unparalleled!

      @@anewhopedawn6676 I agree with you that Ronaldo (the real one not the fake one😅) was an outstanding forward. So sad injuries took their stroll on him. He came back but never really reached same level as before despite being one of the best players in the world even then. But Maradona was just on a completely different level.. In everything basically, both on and of the pitch! He was a natural born leader and squeezed the best out of his teammates by shear presence.. Technically nobody is even halfclose to what Maradona could do with a football, or just simply any object regardless of shape and size.. Videos of Messi juggling an orange with his feets doesn’t really impress me when Maradona at the age of 13 would do not just that, but also juggle the orange with his heel, sholders, chest, head, balancing it on his toe, his heel etc. on livetelevision in Argentina! Live tv! People were actually not coming to see Argentinos Juniors, they came to see the halftime show with the young wizard on everybodys lip, Maradona the golden boy.. Imagine getting a nick name like that even before playing your first minute.. It was pressure from the fans that saw Maradona debute as a 15 year old kid.. KID! The coach told him: If you can nutmeg an opponent do it.. It didn’t take Maradona 10 minutes before the first of thousands of nutmegs to come, was unfolding to the roar of the crowd. The man was simply a wizard on the ball!
      Veron buuhed by the crowd, but when Maradona started clapping for Veron so did the crowd, and they would literally trust him with their own kids if needed. That was the sort of aura Maradona yelded throughout his career..
      Infantino urging FIFA-membership countries to honour their ambassadeur Pele with renaming their stadiums after Pele.. Maradona urged nobody, and yet he has 2 stadiums renamed after him, a church named after him, museums, streets etc, etc.. That was the sort of impact he had!
      Despite his star status he was extremely humble on the pitch and a true team player! No offensive world class player has ever contributed so much in the defense, and winning possesion for his team. Maradona was the real deal man..

      @@jonathanjoensen2679 You’re right in saying that Maradona was probably the most skilled player ever. Messi though is almost as magical while also being more effective.
      Just look at their Goalscoring records. Messi is arguably the greatest Goalscorer the Game has ever seen while playing as a No. 10. That is unfathomable.
      They’re both extraordinary passers & dribblers and while Maradona was more creative on the field, Messi is more consistent.
      Messi’s skillset, individual accomplishments, longevity & team success put him at a different level to everyone else including Maradona.
