A lot of thrash talk by those who only watch soccer on TV. Pele stands out because he was a complete player, and won three world cups, and one of these as the youngest player ever in the World cup. Yes, Mess I is a wizard on a soccer pitch but to be the all time greatest you have multiple qualities and world cup to show for it. I mean, look at Maradona during his time. He singlehandedly won the world cup for Argentina by inspiring his teammates. I can't even say Mess I is better than Maradona. Only those who saw Maradona live during his hay days would know this. Not by just watching couple of YouTube clips. 3 Likes |

Not by just watching couple of YouTube clips. It was even more difficult then to be an attacker unlike now because then there weren't rules protecting attackers on the pitch. Now all you have to do to get the referees sympathy is to fall down without any opposing player touching you. Pele days as players were tougher and more demanding physically. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Bros, you better sharrap der, if messi had played in ur era when there was no call for offisides, he would have scored 2000 goals. Messi is the GOAT |
Re: You Can’t Compare Messi With Me, Says Pele by 0monnak0da: 6:30pm On Dec 06, 2018 |
Kennikeddo: Where did you get that nonsense about offside? How old are you? The offside rule is easier now for strikers(since 1990) than it was in Pele's time. It is funny how people ignorantly cling on to a totally false idea and assert it with 100% conviction There has allways been an offside rulle since the 1860s. It changed in 1925 and again in 1990 between 1925 and 1990 the striker had to come from behind and OVERTAKE the defender . Now he has to be LEVEL with the defender That means that in Pele's time if you were LEVEL you were offside you had to be behind and OVERTAKE him so which is easier 1 Like |

This mumu Pele is the biggest fraud in football history. Imagine this old mumu hyping himself. I have watched his best clips over and over and over again. Just be like sey I dey watch secondary school football. Even as a die-hard Messi fan, I cannot have a team and see cr7 down and pick Pele, which kind poisonous weed I smoke. Tarrr. Maradona is the only one I really really doff my hat for from the old generation even him self use cocaine and the thing is still affecting his brain. 4 Likes 1 Share |

I can bet that all those saying Messi is better than Pele NEVER knew what football was in Pele's time. It's like saying so-called afrobeat musicians of nowadays are better than Fela! |

Oegbeyem1:Say that to Alex Ferguson who believes Pele is the greatest. Pele played in an era of SEVERAL greats,not one George Best Eusebio Johan Cruyff Garincha Jairzinho Pushka Di Stefano we're his elders but great players too. Looking at clips is no judge because clips from that time are of poor quality with fewer angles but People like Alex Ferguson is in a good position to make a judgement. He is the same age as Pele so he would know We are talking about a time when there was no rule against back pass to goal keeper or tackle from behind,if you and the last defender were on the same line then you were offside. The World Cup is the ultimate stage in Football. To be a great you must excel there 1 Like 1 Share |

Topmaike007: But do you know that during Pele's era, there were no rules in football, No offsides I'm very sure if Pele was playing now, half of his goals will be offside And Messi and Ronaldo could have scored over 2000 goals each if they were playing football in Pele 's days |
Re: You Can’t Compare Messi With Me, Says Pele by 0monnak0da: 7:51pm On Dec 06, 2018 |
Raydos:But this is a stupid lie There was an offside rule Why lie foolishly The offside rule changed in 1990 and 1925 and came into existence in the 1860s. The change in 1990 was to make it easier to score just before the 1994 world cup in the USA as a way of making it more appealing to Americans The offside rule today means Life is easier for strikers In 1992 the no back pass rule came about after the embarrassment of the Danish display against Germany in the European cup. I posted that video on this thread. All these kids who know nothing about football but think they know everything |

gurunlocker:Counter which point? Oga , in what way or area is Messi better than Pele. 1000 goals, 3 world cups...he was never a false 9 like Messi was early on in his career. Go and tell your GOAT to win the copa America first. Maradona single handedly carried arg to world cup win. Pele and Maradona are the greatest of all time. You can't compare Messi to this men,unless you're a typical barca fan. I never mentioned Rinaldo. Even Cr7 has won euro with Portugal. |
Re: You Can’t Compare Messi With Me, Says Pele by gurunlocker: 8:16pm On Dec 06, 2018 |
Foodforthought: You know what's paining Pele? It's simply because Messi will soon break his record for goal for a single club very soon. Messi also won something for Argentina (U World Cup and Olympic), if he has support from his mate and they don't leave him to do most work, he would have also won something with Argentina. You think it's a joke to Play in 4 finals? 3 consecutively? Please don't mention Ronaldo, he didn't do shitt at Euro and remember they were even lucky to get there. Aside Euro, which other thing has he won with his country also? Nobody is arguing that Pele didn't win 3 WC! But saying stuffs like this makes no sense. 3 Likes |

Remii:Maradona isbfar better than pele. Pele was never the best player in any of the world cup.Heck he was injured in one and brazil still ended up winning it. Only garrincha and maradona have singlehandedly won a world cup for their country.Enough of the pele hype. He was great but so are other players |
