Magic Plays Prove That MARADONA Would Cost $1 Billion Nowadays

[@Jaayiz]

@@danielsan2142 In my opinion, Maradona is physically stronger, and Messi is better at dribbling, passing and shooting as well.

[@Dacio1202]

@@Jaayiz messi got easier conditions to do it. He constantly played on carpets where he knew exactly how the Ball would behave. Maradona dribbled on pitches full of holes where the Ball bounced each few metres as against England in 1986. Messi was able to play simple gap Passes because the defense of his opponents stood mostly high compared to the 80s and in one line due to the offside rule change. In Maradonas time gap passing was harder because all defense lines stood deep in their half, manmarking for 90 min blocked each of Maradonas pass options while Messis teammates could move freely and create space. Also the sweeper in the 80s Interrupted a lot of gap Passes since he was behind the defense line. As for Shooting...Maradona scored goals with pin point shoots from 40m. There is a Video here on KZbin where Maradona hit the post in a training Session multiple times outside the box on purpose. And Messi was bad at taking freekicks until Maradona became his Coach and Showed him how to take them. Also messi played with lighter balls which tend to have a huge curve and r waterproof. Maradona played with hard leather balls which could get heavy by Rain.

Just shows the difference in resistance and how much better defense was back then when defender could do real tackles and rules werent changed to favour attacker. Just pay attention how each teammate of Maradona was manmarked and he caused constantly chaos just by his break throughs

[@jaysimoes3705]

Todays defender are surely not worse, but they are very much hampered. Attacks from behind are no longer allowed and any attack on legs means yellow or red where you could do that consecutive times in the 80s before getting booked. So todays attackers have it a lot easier in spite of some very good defenders.

[@Dacio1202]

@jaysimoes3705 defender r as good as they r allowed to be, the same count for attacker in the 80s because the rules were against them. Thats why u cant compare messi and Maradona by trophies or stats for instance. With the rules of the 80s there would certainly be some potential Legend defender in todays football but since they r too restricted nowadays, that wont happen anymore. Legend defender like maldini or baresi r Legends because they were known to be very aggressive in 1 on 1's. Today it all about scoring goals, thats why defender and midfielder dont get that much acknowledged, defender even less.

Then after their first title win they signed Brazilian internationals Careca and Alemao, who were key in their second title and UEFA cup win. As much as he was the biggest factor for them, these signings improved the side around him a lot. Saying he was technically better is purely subjective. Both are incredible in that respect. However, a key aspect Messi does have more so than Maradona is he's a more consistent matchwinner and goalscorer. He also has more accuracy and consistency with his shots. That extra dimension as one of the best goalscorers ever is something Maradona lacked, even though of course he played in a deeper role.

@@Veron_44 yes messi was a front man maradona was midfield & was more in defence also helping out, you have to also consider the pitches in maradona's day were terrible, watching vids you can see the ball bobbing everywhere, there like carpets today, messi never got abused like maradona if he did it would of affected his game for sure, maradona was always expecting a bad tackle but regardless he just played keep ball, messi was the closest to maradona technically but in my opinion given the facts i spoke about maradona was better, i know for a fact that messi would of trained or been trained to be the new maradona & to replace him, but not quite

Which accolade ? The laughable balon dors ? Or liga title or a euro cup like the asian or african continents club tournament which not even 1 percent of world watches....messi and ronaldo7 cannot be even compared 2 zidane or R9...let alone maradona 🎉🎉🎉

Most beloved player of all time❤

[@YohanbabuT.G]

Maradona is Maradona we cannot compare other players to him , He is Greatest ever, he is legendary footballer. Since 1990 world cup Italy i watched his game till today my support is to Argentina.

[@NexusCreativeGroup]

Prime Maradona gotta be the most unplayable player I've ever seen...reminds me of watching late 80's / early 90's Jordan.

[@wungabunga]

Greats of the past like Maradona, George Best, Pele etc had lumps kicked out of them by the opposition. They were physically and mentally strong. Diego was the best I ever saw.

[@femtoeclipse860]

The only way to stop him was by fouling him

[@xyz3581]

Yeah, definitely. And so many deliberate fouls deprived us of seeing his magic. It's a shame.

[@bigbangger998]

A gift from Argentina. Maradona and Messi ❤️

[@magolandia1]

Es la misma historia de siempre... Los antiguos que vieron a Di Stefano y a Pelé. Decían que Di Stefano era el mejor del mundo y de la historia. Luego los que jugaron contra Pelé y vieron debutar a Maradona, afirman sin dudarlo que Pelé fue el más grande de la historia. Los que vimos a Maradona y vimos surgir a Messi, sabemos que Maradona fue muy superior a Messi. Y los que solo vieron a Messi... Pobres de ellos... se lo perdieron.

Maradona and Pelé the Best ever. The other are far away...

[@hsafootballworld1321]

I think we should also add messi to that category. I do not know whom among them are the greatest. I personally like Maradona the most.

[@User-7847]

@@hsafootballworld1321 Sorry but Messi is a typical modern player in the same category as CR7, Mbappe and Neymar. He is not on the same level as Maradona and Pele. World-class teammates carry him to success.

He used his right foot so rarely that he scored about six goals with it during his entire career , He is probably the most one-footed player in history

[@johnrockyryan]

When you have a left foot that was blessed by GOD you dont need to use your right that often my g

[@sirperybLakeney]

Tends to be eaggerated. Maradona has scored flying volleys with his right so its not like he was bad with it.

[@narradordasbets]

Quem é Zico?😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@marramamberta321]

Maradona was WAY better than messi. And played with more aggressive defenders. Referees were not that strict with faults in those days, and Maradona overcame all of them until Goikoetxea destroyed his leg.

[@reathGatluak]

What about Penaldo 😂😂

[@marramamberta321]

@reathGatluak Penaldo was (or is) a very fast player, very strong and smart on the field, with great stamina and a hard shooter, who can jump quite high and score greatly with his head. He's a bad team player, very selfish, and a not-so-good dribbler. I don't particularly like him, and I would prefer not to have him on my team.

[@Franc1scoLOPEZ-ou5ji]

maradona was a mix of magic and crazy agressive dribbling especally in his prime pure confidence ..genius. could of been better without the drugs and in this time we have more knowledge about organic herbs that can help athletes perform better.
