That's the problem with so many English football fans, they judge Maradona according to that one incident and completely ignore that a few minutes later he scored what is arguably the best World Cup goal ever as if to prove he could do it no matter what.

Archie Gemmill, huh. Wow, memories. The Tartan army that never quite made it to the battlefield.

Pele by a strecth, closely followed by Arhie Gemmil obviously.

Maradona must be the best.

Why else would the "Hand of God" have interviened to ensure the cheating short-arsed wretch scored against England in the world cup?

Maradona of course, he was brilliant as a midfielder,his overall game and goal scoring abilities cannot be compared. Also Maradona would never boast of being the best player, whereas Pele always said he was the best and praised himself.

Even though i am a hardcore Maradona fan. Pele was a gentleman, never resorting to dirty tricks on court. People may say that all is fair in love and football, but hell, i say NO.

I love Maradona for being of a generation where i could watch him play. I love Pele for being the man who made the game as popular as it is today.

Pele, Pele, Pele!

There, the deed is done!
