Plus you've got enormous psychological pressure to deal with, media obligations, globalization, mass exposure, the sky sports era etc etc, the list is pretty much endless. Yep, Maradona definitely never had to deal with any of that.

Are you saying there was more pressure on a footballer 30 years ago than there is today?
There wasn't.

Maradona wasnt playing in the best club side ever though. He was carrying Napoli to titles and carried one of the worst Argentina sides ever to world cup triumph. Axl I never said Messi had it easy, i said compared to what Maradona had to contend with he did. Messi is a genius. I just think Maradona was better. ''If Diego played against butchers with no talent, Messi plays against super human athletes'' Seriously the 1980's was a brilliant time for football with amazing players. You think John Barnes had it easy?

I'm old enough to remember Mexico 86 and IMO Maradona is the best player I've seen

Both stances have made some points through a lot of garbage, but I'm closer to agreeing with Axl, as Messi is simply undeniable. C. Ronaldo is making an amazing season (again) and nobody doubts (but him) he's miles away from Messi. And he's just 24! Even if he fucks it all Maradona style, it doesn't matter. In my opinion, he's already become the best player ever. Game after game after game he shows it. But not the most important one yet. For that he needs to become a legend, specially in his own country.

Until he does it on a rainy Tuesday night in Stoke, I'll remain unconvinced.
Until then the best player ever is Dixie Dean.

There seems to be a distinct lack of Frank Sinclair talk in this thread, one of the true greats:

get this straight, you're insisting that anyone, ever has referred to maradonna as 'dey-diez-ess' or however you'd pronounce it? I'd go as far as to say its never happened. even once. Nobody calls him that. Some people might call him "El 10" though.
