World Cup - Official Thread

[G_Thang]

Warrick Dunn was a decent example.... but you would have done better with Darren Sproles or Barry Saunders.  Rugby has dozens of these little speed wizards.... which means size isn't everything.  Jason Robinson for England recently had crazy speed for a tiny guy and destroyed defences....

You missed my point..... Soccer is boring...... watch the Portugal/Spain game again.  Ronaldho was invisible despite all the $$$$$ he is paid.  Rugby will take over. Remember this conversation....

warrick 185, barry 200.

ruby already took over sandlots in NA generations ago.  again poor small kid with poor nutrition got better shot at being messi than goon playing equipmentless football outside states.

how can you evebn start comparing pele to diego armando maradona,,diego was much better player simply due to the times he played at and the teams he played for,,it was him and another 10 ,,not like pele who was part of 11,,,maradona to this date is secodn to none,,yes he was drug addict mainly cocaine,,but maradona goal when he passed the whole england team from the mid field and into the net ,,is by far the best goal in history of football,,

there is only ONE ATHLETE WHO WAS BETTER THAN DIEGO ARMANDO MARADONA AND THIS ATHLETE NAME IS MICHAEL JORDAN,, that is it ,,

in history books it will be

michael jordan
diego maradona
mohamad ali

then all the rest,,

i swear you fellas are crazy ,,i used to turn on tv to watch napoli games from italy ,,i didnt know shit about the team ,,and stil watched the game because i knew diego was playing,,same thing with michael jordan ,,,they dont make them now days,,even from the lines diego makes the argentina team look like gods,, it doesnt mean they will win world cup because he cant play for them,,but he makes them into a magic,,

When Maradona played  he was the best in the world  (nobody even close to him  ) ,always the best in any team he played for .
Pele wasn't even the best in the Brasilian national team   Garrincha was better than him in 62 and Jairzinho in 70

I'm out , arguing on the internets is retarded 

not only that,, but maradona took napoli and made it from some garbage low major leage team into champions and not once! every time he went on the field,,he had total control over everything ,,even when they lost the world cup backn in 1990,, always always was best player ,,

you take diego at his best and give him marco van basten,,and whats his name german dude yorgan klinsman,,and hed be even greater than michael jordan ,,but the problem was maradona had mainly himself+ 10 and he made the best out of it at any given time,,

How did you prove Pele was better than Maradona?
You are a dumb cunnt from a 3rd world country that thinks he is an authority on everything
In reality you are ignorant about most subjects and you have the gay

amazing how they switch gears?  based on their logic in this thread and pele's stats being worthless vs coke boy lack of stats vs pele,,,any guy in nba with 1 ring is better than jordan cause he had one assisted shot by a defender.

Maradona was the best in 1986 and Pele was the best in 1958 and 1970.

maradona was the best player ever not in any time ,,EVER,, when he played his best years were 1984 to 1990 but he was and is the best football player to ever touch a football,,pele although great wasnt the greaTEST,,he was part of a team while maradona was all himself,,

example: you take deigo and put him with the americanos ,,,you tske him from 1986 and put him as number 10 in the asmericano team ,,give donovan the number 12 or something and throw him to be another offense player,,and that all it tskeds for usa to win the world cup,,

a player like diego would make a team like usa the champions of the world if played for them ,,pele? would scor few goals but woudnt carry pussy usa to the winning circle as a world champions,,

thats the whole diff right there,


i also like the fact how you fellas  that try to bring up pele lol forgot to put all of the miricles diego did for the italian league  in the uniform of napoli ,,he made people watch that league  by himself,,before that it was alwasys the englisdh league and spanish league

Yeah I basically agree with all of this. Pele could never have scored the sorts of goals that maradonna scored, brilliant as he was, he wasn't maradonna.

Coke addiction or not, it shouldn't affect your status as the greatest.
Will be interesting to see if Messi can match up to him, had a quiet(ish) world cup so far, but he's still so young that it's possible.

To be like  Maradona you need to put  Messi  and Ronaldinho combined in 1 player .

i'll give u credit for persuading simple minds into taking drug cocktails i wouldnt give to a rat in pharmacy research lab, give u credit for playing the ebonics game and jobbing dimwits into believing you're some ethnic guy in europe.  but this is a new level of retardation selling the idea coke boy could bring a world cup to north america with donovan vs a fit, strong ball controlling mid-field, possibly best defense ever brasilian squad.  and this is more less one of their "B" teams as far as talent.  he'd be back on the plane to north america and getting high in east LA...not in world cup finals.  you got clown written all over you like beefyheavyweight n knoxsville...2 other ifbb insiders.
