Maradona vs CR / Messi 14:02 - Nov 26 with 1951 viewsX0Y0

Was Maradona better than Ronaldo and Messi?

Unfortunately, I’m too young to have watched much of him in his prime, and I’ve often felt the standard of football has significantly improved over time. However, watching the footage back, I was struck by just how bad the tackling was. Every game, almost every time he dribbled, there was what would be described as a potential career ending tackling nowadays, and most of the time he glides out of the way. Teddy Bishop’s career would have lasted about 10 minutes if he was playing then!

I think the easy and simple way to look at it is:

Would they get in Paul Lamberts first XI?


Even in their prime, it's probably fair to say they'd struggle to oust Judge.

Maradona needs to know it's a job, not a hobby.

Depends if Alan Judge is fit.

To be fair, I've never been much of a fan of Judge. It's something me and Herbs have always agreed on.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.
