Greatest player i've ever saw. Pretty much won the Argies the WC in 86.

Second goal was alright too.

Single handedly won one world cup then took them back to the final 4 years later. Also took an average Napoli team & won Serie A - the best there has ever been (so far)

Very few have or had the talents of Jinky, of course I'm too young to have seen him in the flesh so can only go with footage & what others tell me of the great wee man

Maradona was without doubt a genius on the pitch but unfortunately like many geniuses in sport, flawed in life.

I'm sure we could name many that even though won the biggest prizes in their sport should have won far more.
