Messi Vs Maradona Vs Pele. Who Is The Greatest Footballer Of All Time? by Baddestguyp(m): 9:47am On Oct 19, 2014
so this argument has been on for months or even a few years. some people claim messi has surpassed pele and maradona especially with his outstanding performance at the world cup tho he didn't win it. but others claim either pele or maradona is the best of all time becos messi didn't win the world cup.

what's you opinion on this? I'll start with myself from the first to the third

1) Messi

2) Maradona

3) Pele

what's ur opinion on this? how would you rank them?

People that watched three of them play said Messi is No1, eg - Adriano Galliani.
Pele said they are on same level, what does that tell you.
No need to talk about Maradona, bad belle dey worry that one.

3 great players from 3 different eras of football. Almost impossible to compare. But for me, its
1. Pele

2. Messi

3. Maradona

It makes no sense comparing players of different generations,without pele their would be no Amando,there will be no Atomic flea.
This is like Comparing the Fashion of my grand dad's day(which was d best of his time),to that of my dad$comparing both to My time,it is not ok to do that cause they are d best of different time.
Finally Alfredo Di Stefano is better than all of them.
