[goldenmard]

Some people believe Maradona to be the best

and some says that Pele is the best.

[diope]

number 10 is MARADONA

[Barbarossa]

I'll tell you what, I'm feeling benevolent this evening.

I'll add a poll to this thread, to try and rescue it from being the pit of total fail that it currently is.

For the record, my vote goes for Maradona, even though he's such a cunt, I think at his best he was better than Pele ever was.

[$SnoopDo2G$]

Maradona aint shit without coke in his nose (jk), so i gotta vote Pele
the original one !!! and Brazilians have always played better than Argentinians.

PELE FTW !!!!!!

Also we gotta have to understand that there is approx. 20 years difference
between those two, so just think about how harder was the soccer game
before... ;) balls where much more heavy, etc...
And for Pele we miss a lot of videos... he did beated england on his own too btw...

PELE
The King of football

they are very different than each other in playing style, pele was a sharp shooter nothing else where maradona was fast and tactical player, if compared them from footage's you can see maradona was a unique player just like where messi stands these days, if cocaine wasnt associated with maradona's history then debate of "who's best" didnt even exist, this lame excuse is repeated by pele's fan over and over.

Brazil is the best? what the heck?
what they do is only defense and counter attack if facing a difficult team, i never enjoyed their game, on other hand you'll enjoy all day while watching tango players show their dances no matter of who they are playing againt, exactly like blaugrana.
i agree their not upto their standards these days but a year or two ago you would have thought about "Brazil is the best".

btw you can count British people as pele supporter, you know "hand of god" and stuff :naughty:

[Villalltheway]

Maradona was better, dont get me wrong pele was great to, but he never proved himself in european football like maradona did.

[cinephilia]

they simply aren't comparable - they didn't officiate at the same time and football was totally different at Pele's time.

[jorje]

pele xD

[db_la_23]

4 me pele was the best

[DeeJay007]

pele :)

[sofalva]

I like Pele.

[j2k4]

I suggest co-equal status, principally considering they never trod the pitch at the same time, and so cannot ever (ever) be compared adequately.

Pele wins the statistical contest, for whatever that means to you.

So.

[Uplifting]

Pele,i not like maradona

[r4gg]

PELE > *.*

goo brazil (lots of hot chicks there).

[RedRansom]

About topic i never watched their match or a tv-program that showing their skills so cant tell anything...

Madonna has not released a decent album in years. Outside of tabloid appearances, she is nothing but a rich, has-been now.

Everywhere I go, brightsid. Everywhere. :D

[brightsid]

Back on topic then
I've seen Diego live playing for Naples he was definitely the most influential player I've seen. Haven't seen Pele in full match so I can't really compare them. From the players I've seen Diego was the best

[bbyte]

Pele

[PerMaFrOsT]

For me Maradona :D

[l33tpirata13]

please ok.....por favor...ok? LA MANO DE DIOS....'NUFF SAID.:cool:

[armandox]

Pele is wonderful player & respected player
I like him

[goldenmard]

Maradona

[Burnsy]

Well taking the topic title literally... :lol:

Pele is going to be 70 this year and advertises viagra on television, whereas Maradonna is 'only' going to be 50... however... Maradonna is rarely without a line of cocaine up one of his nostrils... so I'm gonna say that going on this logic, and the fact he'd have more energy then Maradonna IS the best.

As has been previously mentioned in this thread however, if you read any of the stats Pele WAS the best and from what I've seen of them both, will always have been better in my book :lol:

[seedboxservers]

I think that better is... Pele. Why ? Well... he's life is better than Maradona life. That is my opinion :)

[7th]

Some people believe Maradona to be the best

you mean those born in Argentina isn't it? :lol:

[phauk]

Maradonna :) good footballer, but isn't doing the best as a manager unfortunately.

[Topick]

I think the best are Pele

[C-mos]

between these 2 , Pele would win .

[theknight]

Pele is the best played

[l33tpirata13]

They dont call him "Mano De Dios" for nothing.

[inflik]

Pele Pele Pele... has my vote

[Carantinas]

i think maradona is the best player

[jonsonicaV2]

Pele all the way

[Camaleon]

Maradona cause their goals at Mexico 86

Are awesome

[some1]

Pele i think he is the best player ever

[2slick4u]

tat was easy Pele was the man and still is

[reddy]

the living legend Diego Armando Maradona is the all time best

[Albo Da Kid]

Some people believe Maradona to be the best

you mean those born in Argentina isn't it? :lol:
No not really. I grew up in Albania and I remember a lot of sport fans thought Maradona was the better one.

[sagem]

Maradona but hmm in this days ... Maradona wouldn't stand a chance to novadays defenders.. back then to be a defender you just had to be tall and skiled, now you must have sprint , you must know how to hit the ball with the head well and a little luck will help you..
P.S. Just look at a 1990 final when germany won and look at 2006 WC final and you'll see a totally different football..

[poorgirl]

I love Pele.

[fabio2009]

Maradona is the god of soccer.

[iJazz]

Maradona was fantastically talented but a lazy s.o.b.
I think Pele was a greater person, he was talking about helping children when he was cheered after his 1000th goal, thats big!

[HDman]

for me Maradona

[pierrejoyce]

Pele for sure!

[MiNiMAL]

Messi and Rooney FTW !

[DATTER]
