The man certainly lived!

Beast of player; never seen anything like him at his peak.


RiP Diego.

Didn’t live the healthiest life so not entirely surprised he didn’t live till 100 but still a shock. That is going to be some funeral in Argentina.

One of my favourite footballing pictures - the love he had fot football and win for his country.

RIP
 
Nothing but admiration for his rise despite coming from nothing. Truly an icon, "¿barrilete cosmico de que planeta viniste?" you're gone now, rest easy.

Thats just reminded me of this video, where someone brings on a bag of white powder for him to get his nose into during the 1986 World Cup All Star game...

 
Still the best player I've seen in a Spurs shirt, only Pele could challenge him
as the greatest ever, IMO.

Just finished work and saw this, 2020 just gets worse and worse.

RIP Maradona.

I've said it before, if not the greatest of all time, for sure the greatest Argentine player ever above Messi, he could literally drag slightly above average to average sides to glory, case in point Argentina 1986 & Napoli 1986.

I saw him play in the league v rest of the world game in 1988. He was booed with every touch my the crowd. Hard to understand as a kid watching it as one of my first football matches.

A true legend.
