Ah, the good ol’ Pele vs. Maradona discussion. For me, being simply too young to have followed Pele throughout his career, it will always be Maradona.
I always thought it a big loss to the tournament when he failed the drug-test in the US 94 WC. I really thought he could’ve had a real comeback when he scored that goal in the early stages (against who?).
Anyway, usually more heart than sense in these discussions. As to great players, I’d go with Socrates. Hey, he smoked a pack a day and still performed pretty darn decent...
