Don’t think so

Definitely has legendary status....but not in the same class as Christiano Ronaldo

A bit OTT maybe?

Pele, Revelinho (butchered this - sorry), Falcao, Zidane, Cruyff etc all as good as but Maradona is special the way he can dribble with his low center of gravity and change direction and speed.

Worth a watch I agree

Did Cristiano win the world cup singlehandedly like Maradona?

This comment is really confusing.

You suggest his comment about Maradona being the best ever is OTT and then list a number of the greatest players (and Falcao ) who you suggest are as good as Maradona, presumably to support your initial assertion that his comment was OTT, but then suggest they aren’t as Maradona could dribble with his low center of gravity and change direction and speed.

Which is it ?

Yep, I’d go with that too

As said above, it’s almost impossible to judge because of the different eras - Maradona was brilliant no doubt, but IMO, doesn’t come close to Ronaldo or Messi

Maradona playing nowadays would have had all the protection from refs so stats would easily better those two

Those two playing in the 80’s would probably have had to retire after being tackled

Maradona’s all round aura and personality has also contributed to his iconic status, arguably more than perhaps his footballing achievements

falcao? you mean the two time pl flop. was good with real propping him up and in the french league.

posted on 21/3/20

He also only won 1 World Cup on the international stage

And at club level, hasn’t won anything close to what Ronaldo has achieved

Coke sniffing cheater. Can fack right off. Don't understand why people still hold him in such high regard.

Without the handball goal he'd never won a world cup and without coke he'd never would have made Napoli champions.

Agree he is a massive cheating caaant

Great player though

Was he on Charlie at Napoli? Thought that was just the 94 WC

Suspended 15 months at Napoli for coke abuse

He still invokes strong emotions good and bad, that’s probably why he’s such an iconic figure.

Coke/peds

Suppose it’s all cheating

I thought the Falcaonyou were referring to was the Brazilian of the mid 80’s

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paulo_Roberto_Falcão

Still not in the class of Maradona
