Maradona was a very good player, but I don't put him in my top three. Really? Suppose thats what football is about though. In my view the Krauts couldnt live with Maradona. No idea if Pele was any better as the game had changed and it would be very hard to compare. All exceptional players though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could easily have put Maradona in, but Pele is my number one number 10 - had everything, a far better footballer than Maradona in my view. Muller is always overlooked in these sorts of exchanges, possibly because he was an ungainly, ugly little fatwab Best pure centre-forward of all time though for me. Beckenbauer just ran games, the most influential player I've ever seen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Edd Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I assume anyone voting for the likes of Pele etc. is over 40? Otherwise you couldn't possibly have seen enough of him on a regular basis to judge him other than basing your decision on reputation and the opinion of others.

And, although our generation is fortunate to have watched these players, I daresay most of us would happily forego the memories in exchange for a couple of decades if it could be arranged Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway Pele was just a random example. There are clearly people on here voting for players they can't possibly have seen enough of to judge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
