In my life time Maradona is the greatest player I've seen. Unfortunately I didn't see Pele play. They are the 2 best ever, but Pele has got to be the greatest, as he won 3 world cup's which says it all.
@@user-gy1xh4sf9y You're saying like ... "Michael Jordan only won Barcelona '92 because he played with Magic, Bird, Pippen and Malone, he's not that special"
Stats say Pele was way better But when i see the footages of Maradona he make me believe no one can play football as good as him..!! Its just impossible
Messi is better than Maradona. But Maradona is just an inseen legend. He could have been the Best in history if he played for a little longer and if he could have taken Football more seriously than addiction 😢
@@gourmondal5812 you're maybe a foolish toxic fan of messi please tell me what the reason is way messi maradona is better then pele pele maradona both are great for me but pele is little more better because records world cup and he created most skills and he is good at all maradona is great playmaker dribbler one of the great midfielder but pele good midfielder good winger and great striker great goalscorer cannot compare messi with pele because they played at different era so as a football fan maradona pele both are great for me
Both were legend but with full respect to Pele I want to say Maradona is better...His playing style was something else though pele's stats is better but when you see the playing Maradona will be in the top ❤
Pele era mas artista, mucho mas creativo, regateaba de distintas formas hacia juegos con la pelota en el aire, amagaba sin tocar la pelota, siempre inventaba jugadas. Maradona era extremadamente habil y preciso pero hacia casi siempre el mismo regate , para mi Maradona tenía mejor control de la bola (puede ser porque los campos eran mejores) pero Pele era mucho mas creativo y variado su juego
As far as history of football is concerned, both players were the best at their peak time. Now that they are gone, comparison is not a good scale for this matter as both are deceased and both played in two different time for different generations of football fans.
@@Masaf_YT Yep, Maradona's footage archive is the only football/soccer archive I even bother to watch on RU-vid once in a while nowadays; I don't waste my time on anyone or anything else when it comes to anything that's football related, let's leave it at that.
In my opinion maybe Maradona was better because he played in very competitive championship as Spain and Italy not to tell he competed in European trophies.
@@Account.for.Comment Friendly matches, are you serious? Tell to Di Stefano, Puskas, Cruyff or Beckenbauer that fotball in Brazil was better than in Europe back then..
Pele vs Maradona Goals: Pele Assists: Pele Trophies: Pele WC: Pele WC goals: Pele WC assists: Pele Longevity: Pele There isn’t a single thing Maradona did better than Pele. They are not in the same league at all.
Argentina só ganhou a copa de 86 , porque roubaram a Inglaterra, Maradona fez gol de mão . Maradona deu péssimo exemplo usando cocaína. Pelé foi infinitamente melhor que o Nóia do Maradona
Dude STOP IT OK STOP IT THE GREATEST ATHLETE EVERRRRRRR IN D HISTORY OF SPORTS IS A DUDE CALLED MICHAEL HIS AIRNESS JEFFREY JORDAN FACT. OK SO STOP IT WIT YOUR SHANANIGANS, AND AM A FOOTBALL FANATIC. NOT BASKETBALL, BUT CALL AH SPADE AH SPADE, MJ WAS LIKE A SUPER HERO HE WALKED ON AIR ,
@@oscar19658 O senhor nunca deve ter visto os jogos de Pelé além dos poucos vídeos que mostram na mídia. Essa pergunta só pode ser respondida por que viu Pelé e Maradona jogarem . Já que na época de Pelé foram poucas as imagens guardadas . SR. Oscar , garanto que coletivamente e individualmente , impulso e cabeceio o Sr. Edson Arantes do Nascimento ( Rei Pelé ), coloca Maradona no bolso . Sem dizer que Pelé ainda levou vantagem em longevidade e nunca consumiu drogas.
Your argument is like ... "Michael Jordan needed a good team to win, he only won Barcelona '92 because he had Magic, Pippen, Bird and Malone" . Ridiculous, isnt it.
May you live a long and prosperous life, because I will love to see a 14-year-old brat in 2078 come to you and say "yo gramps, look at those defenders from your time, that Messi guy isnt that great, playing against a bunch of farmers"
In year 2000 , FIFA voted the world team of the century.If you can find it , you will notice that the best defenders of the century played in the time of Pelé.
It's kinda like comparing Jordan to Labron or Hendrix to Page. There is an evolution to every skill or platform. In such comparisons think about the one who rose the bar or lead the way in the transformation. They are the influence that brings things to the next level so imo should appreciated in a higher regard.
I loved both, but when Pelé ran you might think that his feet didn't touch the ground. He had something supernatural. And he also had one clear advantage over Diego: the header. Pelé was an absolute master and an extraordinary athlete: he jumped higher and seemed to float in the air longer than any opponent.
Well one was and will always be be the KING of football and the other will always be the magician !!!!!! In any case I miss them both!!!! I only wish I could have !!!!!!!!!!!!!
People love to compare Pele, Maradona, Messi and CR. Personally, in terms of skills, my favourite is Pele. But Maradona had something that even Pele did not have. When Maradona stepped onto the field with a team such as Napoli, he will magically made his very average teammates believe they are WC champions. Or Serie A champions. If there is a stats for "magic spell on teammates", Maradona beats them all. And for that, I can't say Pele is better than Maradona. I don't want to talk about the other 2.
The king of football is pele. Goals =pele(757>311) Assist=pele(361>261) Awards=pele(3 world cups) Dribling=pele (the Creator of modern football tactics) Free kick=pele(70>63) Heading = pele.(no need to explain ) Iq=pele(for his vision) So the clear winner is pele the king
What? You gave points for dribbling to Pele over Maradona?? The greatest dribbler in the world? Are u high? Goals? Pele was a striker but Maradona was an attacking midfielder so no comparison on that. Maradona was/is/will be the best in the history. Period!
absolutely true, base on their playing positions, pele was the striker, diego was the driver and the forwad-line that he was playing with (like buruchagga, claudio canniggia) that combination was insane, RIP Legends
Striker NEEDS good team-mate to win, midfielders MAKES team-mate to win (The comparison is unfair, especially attacking midfielders, have more responsilbilities on the pitch)
It’s because he can control balls with his feet so well WHILE RUNNING it’s impressive. He’s also very good at kicking them and passing his balls to the homies.
Pelé è il più grande calciatore della storia del calcio perché super completissimo tecnicamente fisicamente mentalmente rispetto a tutti tre mondiali con il Brasile 58 62 70 due mondiali con il santos 62 63 una recopa mondiale nel 68 con il santos contro l Inter a s siro 1283 goals in 1371 partite viva viva viva viva viva viva viva viva o Rey Pelé ciao dalla Sicilia Italia da un italiano ci vorranno tanti tanti anni forse un secolo o più prima di rivedere un altro del livello di Pelé
Both were the top 2 skilled players, but Maradona on top of it had to suffer fouls and killer tackles and body hits, yet he stood up and continued playing. Maradona definitely was on another level and no other player will ever be able to reach him nopt even close. Stats and awards mean nothing. His performance in the field was unequaled, and his legendary goal against England was the best ever in history. The fact that he was able to take Napoli, a team that was always last in the ranks to become UEFA champion is just God level. D1OS
he is clearly a pele fan on the low 😂😂 first of all pele never ever left Brazil to play in other places so that alone takes away alot.. pele played in a time where futbol wasn’t as tactical and fast like maradona.. i honestly believe maradona is the best player of all time! and i dont take away peles greatness!💯
The fact that Brazil won 3 out of 4 editions of the world cup, and maybe one or two players played club football in europe in these two genetions (the 58/62 to 70 team only had one player from both eras), makes your comments about the validity of the Brazilian league during peles career, as compared to Europe's best league's, a rather mute and invalid argument.
@@featherinthewind333 yes pele did win 3 world cups but the only reason is because he had teammates like garrincha and jairzinho let me ask you a question, if pele didnt have those good teammates how many world cups do you think he would’ve won. Certainly not 3 without those teammates. In the other hand Maradona proved he can be good even without insanely skilled teammates. He proved that when he played against england and scored one of the best goals of all time and he scored the ‘hand of god’. With all seriousness out of the way i think diego armando maradona is better than pele pele is a legend but i think diego is better because of his skills with and without the ball
Pelé è l unico che ha sfiorato la perfezione viva viva viva viva viva viva viva viva o Rey Pelé Pelé è Dio la palla ai piedi di Pelé è grazia di Dio Pelé ha vinto tre mondiali con il Brasile 1958 1962 1970 due mondiali con il santos 1962 1963 ci vogliono due Maradona e mezzo per fare un Pelé in una classifica dei più grandi della storia del calcio Pelé è 1 incomparabile immenso incredibile irripetibile magico Maradona si e no è tra i primi cinque
Maradona! Maradona! Maradona! is all you heard. Maradona did not need a good team to win but Pele had good players around him to hear Pele! Pele! Pele! It is axiomatic who is GOAT. The HAND OF GOD!
Pelé never played in a European league, the most demanding in the world. And he always had the same companions. Pelé won because he earned more playing his last years in a club like Cosmos.
Love your own but don't forget that pele is the beginning of it all including that number 10 shirt your hero is warring came from him Pele is Genesis of football
@@Inquisitive_Nomad why are u acting like a 80 year old Maradona broke transfer market value twice He chose a poor club like Napoli over Milan If he went to AC Milan then nobody ever would have come close to that market value And that was too before he won 1986 wc Imagine his market value after that? Also Pele hype was more because he had no competition in comparison to Maradona Only Eusebio Old Di Stefano Maradona - Van Basten Gullit Rijkaard Platini Zico Baresi
Pele is top 3 of all time no doubt about that the guy is the King but he played with absolute ballers his entire career Diego however work his ass off dribbling past 3 or 4 players would get into the box pass to his teamate JUST FOR HIM TO MISS AN OPEN GOAL!! im not even joking this is what Diego had to deal with and he won a World Cup with them he will always be my GOAT no matter what
Pelé è il più grande calciatore della storia perché super completissimo tecnicamente fisicamente mentalmente rispetto a tutti tre mondiali con il Brasile 58 62 70 due mondiali con il santos 62 63 una recopa mondiale nel 68 con il santos contro l Inter a s siro 1283 goals in 1371 partite viva viva viva viva viva viva viva viva viva o Rey Pelé ciao dalla Sicilia Italia da un italiano
Diego was a #10 playing one step behind of Pele if both players play in the same team. Dribbling I will give the point to Diego that’s for sure. Pele was a striker # 9 that was able to play as a 10 because his magnificent. Picking a player from different time that face different opponents’ players it will never be fair for any. The quality of both players is equally good. Just the fact that both players were able to play in different positions and be the best in the alternate position as well means a lot. Choosing one over the other goes in your personal preference and not in the facts.
All the skills now you see is done by Pele, from bicycle kick to curve kick Pele was the one who first did that. Pele was the first player to show modern football to the world, no doubt Maradona is one of the best but Pele the best.
@@zakariakhanmd2549 Garrincha invented most of the dribbling skills Pele also invented skills Di Stefano also invented many skills and Puskas also invented many shooting techniques and Maradona invented 'The Maradona Roulette' Pele takes all the credit....overappreciated
1 important point is Pele was the only player I can think of who was proclaimed a national treasure by Brazil, which meant Pele could not play for any teams outside Brazil even if he wanted to. That alone should show you how great he was. TBH i see Maradona as peles successor. Imagine though if we could time travel and bring both these players to 2024. and I call dibs on Pele playing for Nottingham Forest
None can play as good as Maradona. Even Messi is behind by far from Maradona. Brazil produces best players always,Pele played around them which hepled him do well in the field, whereas Maradona made a mediocre team World Champion.This made him the greatest of all time.
Maradona the best player ever and the greatest ever. Pélé had a bunch great players around him when he was playing for Brazil. Pélé can't touch Maradona never ever.
Pelé è Dio Pelé Is God non c è stato e non c è nessuno come Pelé e ci vorranno tanti tanti anni forse un secolo o più prima di rivedere un altro del livello di Pelé ciao dalla Sicilia Italia ciao da un italiano viva viva viva viva viva viva viva viva un u o Rey Pelé aveva tutto tecnicamente fisicamente mentalmente ai massimi livelli tutti gli altri sono stati e sono solo calciatori Pelé invece è il calcio fatto persona
