Maradona is famous because he won the world cup , as i already said i didn't watch him (i'm 30 y old) , but according to wikipedia he never scored more than 16 goals while playing in Europe .

Ofc people should focus on stats , numbers don't lie , there is no chance some average guy scored 30+ goals per season every year , CR7/Messi did that .

But people are nostalgic , whenever we talk about RB alot of guys think Caffu , but Dani Alves is way better than him .

And this doesn't have nothing to do with "old era" and "modern football" i mean everyone think Buffon/Casillas/Neuer are the best GKs ever , i've never seen somone telling me some random GK from 80-90s era was the best , only Lev Yashin was mentioned .
Would take Cafu over Alves any day. He won serie a with Roma and captained Brazil to World Cup in the process. What has Alves done outside Barcelona?

Its same thing like now people crying about Cancelo but he would be exposed in Turin cause Man city only care about his attacking qualities. Defensively Cancelo is rubbish.

Kahn and Smeichel in the 90s.

Who cares about Maradona, honestly. Cr7 or Messi are the only two players worth mentioning in the Goat debate. Any choice between the two is basically a personal preference.

Your ignorance is baffling.

So you agree :lol:

Its ok. I like Zizou more than CR7, too. But thats not the debate here.

It's your truth. You are free to believe whatever you want. I strongly and vehemently disagree. I don't think Messi or CR7 are GOATS, but I definitely think they belong in the discussion, given their accomplishments.

Nothing brings me more glee than watching the ronaldo fanboys and Manure supporters turn against each other now on social media. An increasing number of these fanboys are regretting that he left us. Tough, he should have thought better

Nah, it's good that he forced the move. Huge relief for the club which was under pressure financially.

He was showing signs of slowing down anyway. The only thing that sucks is the fact he left so late, otherwise we'd start the season with Vlahovic perhaps.

Things are slowly but steadily improving for us. United on the other hand...

Gee does that sounds familiar?

Dean Saunders: "If Ronaldo was asked: Who are the worst midfielders you've played with in your career? Fred and McTominay shouldn't be far away. People are starting to point fingers at Ronaldo but he is playing with some idiots and others are not on the same wavelength as him."

Kind of funny that the guy we replaced him with has more than double the league goals. Sure, he didn't score them for Juve, yet, but if that stat still stands at the end of the season :lol3:
