Igbosmoker:
with that logic

Nani
Eder
Bernado Silva
Ronaldo
That's the mistake you make... They all won the European cups, but whom was Portugal best player at the same cup??

Maradona is always greater than Messi for Argentina... Don't you get it? Whatever Messi has won for Argentina, maradona has already won and done it.... grin

Ronaldo is Portugal best ever player
Ronaldo is the captain that lifted both cups
Ronaldo is all time Portugal best player in all European competitions...

Ronaldo
Eusebio
Figo

That's the correct list.. be objective..in Argentina case, I'm objective, and you know it....

You think great football started in 1999? How can you put CR7 over Maradonahuh So you would have a crucial match against a very tough team. You have Maradona of 1986 in his prime and CR7 in his prime, as options. You'd now chose Cristiano over Maradonahuh Have you watched Maradona play at all?? He was a beast, scoring solo goals after solo goals against tough teams with tackles flying in at him from all corners. You think it was a joke that he was awarded the greatest player of the century together with Pele, that FIFA and the majority of fans were blind?? So we should regard your opinion above FIFA and other football fans??

There is no point arguing with you any longer.
Wow... Theirryjay you surprised me with your analysis Sha... grin... Never knows Barca fans can be a little objective grin

1. Pele is still the greatest
2. Maradona
3. Ronaldo del Lima
4. Zidane
5. Cristiano
6. Messi

I'm a Cristiano fan grin...

Pele won three world cups
Pele won world cup golden ball
Pele assisted 4 goals in a final
Pele would have won 7 FIFA ballondors (if it was given to only Europeans at his time)
Pele has the most goals (1251 in1361 matches)..

Hence Pele is the greatest...
Sports › Re: Thierry Henry Has Been Named As The Premier League's Greatest Ever Player by Jokerman(m): 11:17am On Apr 18, 2020
Rubbish list.... If the only player to ever win FIFA world best player from the EPL, breaking records while doing so isn't the first, then I don't know what is.... However this is a list selected by fans, not by analysis.....

Henry was just another local champion who couldn't replicate his success at the European level, heck, he couldn't even win UCL golden boot, neither could he steer Arsenal to win the UCL..

THE CORRECT LIST should be.....

1. Cristiano Ronaldo
2. Frank Lampard
3. Thierry Henry
4. Ryan Giggs
5. Steven Gerrard
6. Alan shearer..... Others can follow...

Before you argue, remember we are talking of greatest (which means what you acheived)... So tell us what criteria that makes you think Henry was the greatest in the EPL....

Let's be honest and fair now... To be called greatest in a particular event or sport, you must win the highest accolade in it.. For tennis, grand slam, for WWE (Universal belt), for football (World cup), hence the list should be...

However if we are to list by club football

1. Pele
2. Cristiano
3. Messi
4. Ronaldo delima
5. Zidane
6. Di Stefano
7. Cryuff

If we are to list by national team
1. Pele
2. Maradona
3 .Delima
4. Zidane
5. Platini

7. Cryuff

If we are to list by FIFA ballondor
1. Pele
2. Messi
3. Cristiano
4. Delima

If we are to list by total trophies
1. Messi

Mr Jokerman, it is you who has come again o.

To refresh your memory, Pele was voted by Fifa, Maradona was voted by football fans, hence FIFA had to give both players the award to share. Messi was not in the picture at the turn of the century when both Maradona and Pele shared the award. So if Pele is regarded as an equal to Maradona, and I and many others consider Messi equal to Maradona, then surely my statement that no player ever was better than Maradona or Messi in their prime is in order. You get my logic?
Oga grin... Pele is the greatest.... Even if ballondor voting , Pele still trumped maradona... grin

This is so difficult!

On an individual talent level, I'd say they are both at par and play similarly.

From a national team contribution perspective, Maradona was better. He won a WC with Argentina, while Messi could only get to the final. However, I think Maradona had better teammates in Argentina than Messi, as they had won the WC without Maradona just 8 years before.

From a club perspective, Messi was better as he has won several club trophies that Maradona has never won. However, in the same vein, he had better teammates than Maradona clubwise.

I'd conclude that they are equals. Two top players who in their prime, have been bettered than no other player in football history.
Barcelona fan... You have come again...

Pele was voted the greatest player of the century over maradona... Stop these delusions of yours na grin

Sports › WWE News: Kurt Angle And Rusev Amongst 11 WWE Stars Sacked Due To Covid-19 by Jokerman(op): 8:56pm On Apr 16, 2020
Hall of Famer Kurt Angle was furloughed by WWE on Wednesday afternoon, as 11 more members of the main roster, including Rusev, were released.

Sarah Logan, Aiden English, Erick Rowan, Epico Colon, Primo Colon, Mike Kanellis, Maria Kanellis Zack Ryder and No Way Jose have been cut.

They join Drake Maverick, Curt Hawkins, Luke Gallows, Karl Anderson, EC3, Eric Young, Heath Slater, and Lio Rush who were released earlier in the afternoon.

It's a dark day for WWE, with the company forced to release so many members of their staff due to coronavirus.

As of writing, a number of other producers - Lance Storm, Dave Finlay and Shane Helms - have been furloughed alongside Angle.

A truly dark day for wrestling - and there will likely be more cuts in the coming days.


WWE also announced these staff cuts will save them $4 million a month
