Amazing footballer fealt a real pang of grief when I heard the news
or, indeed, over the leg of our former manager v argentina
i think Shilton has always fussed more over that simply cos it diverts attention away from the fact that he was slow off his line & should have put both maradona and the ball into orbit
anyway, i like to think he would be gracious. i aint sure he will be
Shilton should be quiet because even without the hand he was being outjumped by a man that barely scraped past 5 feet in height.
People are dicks
He doesn’t have to comment, it’s his right but he’d have to be a cunt to genuinely be sitting there thinking “oh well” or something.
It was a football match over 30 years ago
State of that pitch though!
One of my favourite footballing pictures - the love he had fot football and win for his country.
RIP
No, why the fuck should I? I’m entitled to my view. It was cheating.
Messi is a million times better than Maradona, the statistics speak by themselves. There is no possible doubt. Many speak out of the heart. I have seen the career of both fully since Diego came to Barcelona, he was extraordinary but in terms of goals and assists, he is even under Cristiano, Gerd Müller, Ronaldo, Pelé or Di Stefano.
He was in the league of the extraordinary skilled players, not in the league of the most decisive ones. The league of Platini, Zidane, Baggio, Del Piero, Figo, Gazza, Zico, Rivelino, Garrincha, Laudrup, etc.
Messi is the best ever in both leagues, skilled, marvelous to see, and decisive, scoring 50 goals per season only in the Spanish league, plus many more in the Cup of Europe or the King's Cup, that is extra terrestrial figures. And I'm not exactl his fan, he has beaten us and humiliated us for 15 years.
Maradona fanatics are not realistic.
