Non Maradona

[stanthevan]

Apparently died of a heart attack.

 

[Def_II_Royalz]

Damn.

 

[billythekid]

What was it he said when he scored ‘that goal’?

Only 60, great player in his time.

 

[redharry]

Never forgave him for the handball in Mexico, had the "fortune" to witness it at the stadium in Mexico. There is a brick in the AFCB wall that says "Maradonna is a cheat" courtesy of my wife.

 

[kirsikka]

I love the fact he used to wear a Rolex on each wrist.

A life lived fast for sure.

George Best died on 25th November.

 

[AlGard]

Again, can't deny his brilliance, but never forgiven for his "Hand of God" goal.
And his Malvinas quotes annoyed a nation.

I suppose the baton of World Football cheat will be passed on to Jack Grealish now.

 

[northstandmark]

A life filled with enough ups and downs, stories, and substances to last several lifetimes I'm sure!

 

[Garbo]

...shame loved her music!

 

[Brian Hutchings]

Saw him play at Pompey a couple of times...people compared him to Best ..but nowhere near tbh.

If Best had been English we would have won the World Cup in 1970 with him in the team...

...I still can't believe Shilton couldn't get to the ball ball before he punched it in!

Concrete boots.

Won’t be missed

I remember Pele in 1970 and Cruyff in 1974. Maradona eclipsed them both in 1986. Without doubt the most gifted footballer to ever grace a football pitch

Won’t be missed

He was just sub standard, drug addled , over hyped, Alan Groves.

 

[Kenya Cherrie]

Great player but off the pitch an utter shithead.

 

[AFCB_REPUBLICAN]

Great player but off the pitch an utter shithead.

But it’s what he did on the pitch that matters and in his prime there is not another player alive or dead that is superior to him.

 

[Waz afcb]

It’s a miracle he lasted that long tbh

Actually that’s not what matters . The fact he was a coke head that liked to beat up women matters more .
