Meza for pure skill 100% agree. I adore him. Genius personified. I dont think Pele or Maradona could match him for pure trickery.  This goal was a bit special : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2REspbMp4yg&list=PLj0PrhK83xQv3n-uzxHQRQXJZOOElaISK&index=6
Yeah i agree Rich, in terms of Skill \ trickery, Ronaldinho was probably the best (in that era) Maradona was also great with the ball as was Cruyff. Dribbling past defenders is not something you see very often these days. its all pass pass pass until you fall asleep lol like Man City's walk it in method. [youtube]3FcXBAC6-KI[/youtube] |

Thanks for the link. Ronaldinho is my favourite player ever .I was very lucky to have seen him play live. Head and shoulders above any of the players on the pitch that day. Reminded me of going into a art exhibition and seeing pictures painted by children and then you see one that was done by Rembrandt . Added to that ex Barcelona player Xavi said he had an endearing personality as well. |

Greatest player ever & an even better character. Imagine what he would’ve done if he’d been one of these oxygen tent, cryogenic chamber robots like Ronaldo, or even an actual drugs cheat like Messi & his human growth hormones.
RIP Diego Armando Maradona.

Totally agree, just like that other flawed genius George Best, who died exactly 15 years ago to the day. Spooky. |

The greatest player to ever play the game. End of.
A footballing genius. Captained Argentina to their only World Cup win on foreign soil in 1986. And probably more impressively he almost single handedly dragged a terrible Argentina side to the Final in 1990.

You’d have thought they’d have cleaned that glass. Look at all the dust on it |

Mexico 86 was when I really got into football. Obviously really hated him at the time for what he did against England but I was just a kid then and as I got older wised up that he was a great player, maybe the best in my lifetime. As others have said too, unlike a lot of today's footballers he was full of character albeit massively divisive.

Barry Davies’, “You have to say that’s magnificent”, after Maradona scored that incredible 2nd goal vs England in 1986 is one of my favourite commentary moments too. Up there with “And Solskjaer has won it” and “Nolan, does he go?” by our very own John Tondeur in the 2016 playoff final |
