MERCHANDISER: I am seriously disappointed at your lack of sense of history. Pele played football in seriously unsafe times. The rough of those days were spectacular. And the worse was racism (he was a black Brazilian). Neither Messi nor Ronaldo faced any of these two. In fact, I see Messi being protected when it came to all these "rough". And then, his dribbling was off the chart. It was so good that it was normal to hear Pele dribbling a keeper (one case, he dribbled a whole field and the keeper, it was so bad that after the match, he went to the dressing room to apologize to the crying keeper. It is said that the keeper retired after that day). He didn't only dribble. He also scored. He won 3 senior world cups in the space of 16 years. He played football during the time when they played football like if they were children - ALMOST EVERYDAY. And his country passed a law that made it very hard for Pele to transfer to another country. His country president said he was a national treasure. There is a lot to say but the final one is this - his dribbling was so insane that even when acting in a film (he acted with Sylvester Stallone - i think the name of the film is victory) they hardly took retakes for any part he had to dribble and score (find out how hard it is to make a sports film). His sportsmanship was top-notch (even when he was looked as a black monkey, in a case in Italy, he said a child was scratching his skin to see if the charcoal or his black skin would come off). I have met people who saw him, Maradona and Messi and they laugh when people praise Messi ahead of both of them. All round stats on and off the pitch - he flogs them both. And youtube does not even help issues or lend a picture to what he did. Find books about him - the most popular, my life and the beautiful game. 12 Likes |

Eagba: Your own speculation is arrant rubbish. How many world best did Zidane win? And don’t tell me about how Zidane won a World Cup. That’s not an individual achievement. By the way how many UCL does Zidane have? How many assists and career goals does he have? How many MOTM awards does he have, all compared to CR7 Or should I go on naming more? |

MERCHANDISER: "Football then wasn't technical and sophisticated as it is today" Please can you ping point the technicalities and sophistications that these days football possess than wasn't in those years. Most people would rush to say this every time, but Football is football, I haven't even seen any thing new, is there any new skill? No!!! "Legover" and lots more were all there years back. |

Reinaldo:So your definition of the greatest player is by winning a competition that is held every four years? So after four years, football died? Football paused? For another 4 years. Every player went to sleep for another 4 years? If I understand your childish point correctly, you mean the only football that is played is only in the world cup. So Every incredible, fantastic and individual performance by players at club level is null and void? You must be high on some cheap dog shit! With no disrespect to Pele.... Pele is a child to Messi as far as football is concerned. Take it or die with it! 3 Likes 1 Share |

I'd rather see, Kanu, okocha, rashidi, west, etc on our stadium than pele. 1 Like 1 Share |

Reinaldo: Tell him o. He doesn't even know players when Ferguson started coaching like Eric Cantona. He did not even talk of Roberto Carlos - that powerful player of banana shot. He cannot even mention George Weah. Not even a member of the Ajax squad that Kanu belonged too that stormed the world. Even the Ronaldinho he talks about, spoke about Okocha being his model! Oh and the famous Ronaldo of Brazil. 5 Likes 1 Share |

To me this is the order Starting from bottom 4.Maradonna- He carried one world cup 3. C.ronaldo- he don carry everytin except worldcup. So four champions league don cancel maradona world cup. We neva even start to talk of c.ronaldo goals sef. So maradonna dey under ronaldo. 2. Messi- he has carried everytin possible. Notin remaining again. Infact he is suppose to be number one but just say the number one person get a kind of record pass am which messi nor fit dream of 1. Pele- the king. The greatest footballer ever liveth. He carried three world cups. The first one at age 17. And thirdly the one wey dey busrt my head pass na say he carry world cup back to back. U hear back to back o. Nobe champion league wey dem dey play every year o. Dis na world cup. Abeg make una clear road for pele. He is the greatest. Note I be c.ronaldo fan. 3 Likes |

MERCHANDISER: What a myopic way to argue. Do you think if Messi played in Pele's era he'd be anywhere near being in the goat argument? 1. Messi would never had the technological advancements to have aided his growth deficiency. 2. How do you think he'd cope playing on those hard natural/synthetic greases? 3. With such poor medical knowledge back then Messi would probably be spending months on the treatment table. 4. These days with all the data available to teams, coaches and technical crew, players have greater advantage over opponent. Summarily, goat in each era deserve to be respected and surely for me Pele is shoulder above Messi 3 Likes |

Love800: Those of you using team achievement to compare players don't really much about football How many balon dors did Pele win,how many European golden shoes, how many golden boots,91 goals in a calendar year, did Pele even come close to that?? World cup is a team achievement,it can't be used as a basis for comparison Sissoko don carry world cup,is he now better than ronaldo because of that?? 2 Likes 1 Share |
