next soccer question
Re: next soccer question
I gotta say, great player for this time, but it's like basketball of old, compared to today, the moves/shots just aren't as impressive anymore.

Massive cokehead as well

I saw Messi in NY toy with the US national team for a half.
He's way better than Maradona.

Well, right, he has a career of beautiful soccer.
But being there live and watching him just dance around our team with ease was a sight to see.
Howard though was in xgames mode.

Re: next soccer question
And it's not close. I mean he's a top 5 all-time player. I actually think Ronaldo from Brazil could be considered better. Time for a list!
1. Messi
2. Pele
3. CR7
4. Maradona
5. Ronaldo
6. Cryuff
7. Zidane
8. Beckenbauer
9. Platini
10. Klinnsman

Re: next soccer question
Yeah on a redo, I would move Zidane up to 5 and move everyone else down.

George Best would have been a Top 10 candidate if he could have stayed sober
Re: next soccer question
Maradona second behind Pele. Just watch videos. He was out of the world.

Re: next soccer question
And those United teams were pretty blah around him too, right? If they had some better teams, he would be more well known to all.

Re: next soccer question
I'm certainly not old enough to have watched those United teams, but they were still a pretty good club. Not nearly the powerhouse they've been since the Premier League started in 1992 though.
Best didn't have the greatest ending to his Manchester United career.

Re: next soccer question
I think both Maradona and Messi are overrated. Not to say they are not all-time greats, but I think both are closer to 10 than 1.

Gone 2-2 with them over last 4 games. Should be another good one.

Re: next soccer question
KC v Minny was some of the first sports action I saw outta COVID in the MLS is back tourney.
If I remember right, we lost in the last seconds after Melia got a red card 20 minutes earlier.

Re: next soccer question
We are co-favorites to bring home the Cup according to 538. But, losing to the Loonies feels very possible. Thought the last game was the more dangerous matchup, though.

Re: next soccer question
Remember when Wondo was brought to Brazil instead of Landon Donovan because of his clutch moments but then missed a gimmie goal that likely would have sent USA through over Belgium?
