beautiful.
I could show you a lot of players who were probably better than Maradona, or were better human beings. But, What I cannot show you is a sports person who is as revered as him.With age you get perspective. For me Maradona is behind Pele, Cruyff, Platini, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and a few others and this is just a quick thought about offensive players who tend to command the headlines. You'll never hear Beckenbauer or Bobby Moore called the best player in the world. Best player = euphemism for best striker.
Loaded? It's my view, you don't have to share it but I don't have to share yours either. Watch him celebrate the goal against Nigeria and tell me you want your kid to be like him, doped even on the playing field in a world cup finals. Watch him lying about the handball too, honest guy.
He was a very good player but I'm sorry, I don't buy this internet glorification of everyone who dies - therefore I don't have to revise my opinion that despite his playing skills he wasn;t a very nice person.

he was a great man who had to make his youthful mistakes alone, in the tabloid spotlight, in the shadow of the mafia and in the cauldron of public adulation. He was alone and from the age of 15 supported his family and he paid a heavy price.beautiful.
Such nice camera angles too. Very close to the action.

Some of my friends while growing up might never have played football, they might never had a TV even, but ask them who they wanted to be, and they would say Maradona. About a 100,000 people came to see him when he came to India. Such was his appeal.
African people would recognize Kanu, or Drogba or Eto'o, but they all probably grew up idolizing Maradona. Drogba tweeted about a shirt of Maradona being his first one. Kanu called him the greatest ever...they surely would not pay the same tribute to every player who dies.
I don't know about any personal details of his life which would make me haste him outright. He probably did some pretty wierd ****, but in the end all his major controversies were about drugs or something related. Wouldn't want my kids to be like him off the field that that is not what I know him for.
Human stupidity never ceases to amaze me.
Unfortunately there are videos circling around of one of them being found dead in a bin by police. Such a stupid decision to take selfies with someone who was considered god on earth in Argentina, someone who played in a sport and a country with so many ultras.
Saying all that though, these people had families so its very upsetting to hear what has happened to them.
It was always the dream fixture to be able to attend, for me. Raw as ****. Spit roasting top quality cow and guzzling tremendous red wine before witnessing the nearest thing to war inside and outside of a footballing arena The risk of being battered to a pulp or worse, if they heard me speak as well... There’s no other game on earth like it. I’ve always had a fascination with the country Argentina and Maradona since I was a kid.Football in Argentina is no joke. That year when Boca played River in the Copa Libertadores final was carnage
Wasn’t there like a week of rioting?

The rest of your post is great.

Thats so strange I literally saw a video of a dead guy being taken out of a bin by police, who looked like the guy. Maybe not then I guess.This isn’t true is it? Google just says they were fired and had received death threats.
