Amazing footballer , watching clips of him , you can appreciate what a great player he was ,
Speed , control , aggression , finishing , vision he had it all .
People still moaning about the hand of god goal need to get over themselves.
A few minutes later in that game he literally ran through the whole team and the rounded Shilton for good measure and stuck in the back of the net .
Was easily the best player in the world when he was around , and no doubt up there in the greatest of all time discussion now .
Won a World Cup with Argentina then got to the final 4 years later again .
Moved to Napoli who fought relegation in the year before he came , came 8th in his first season then won the league the season after , (there first league title ever) league was dominated by juve, inter , Milan etc all the northern Italian clubs , then won a coppa Italia a Uefa cup and another league title.
The most successful period in there entire history.
They’ve not won a league title since he stopped playing .
Can understand why he’s adored so much in Naples .
If you understand football , then you can see what a great player he was.
I like him as a person aswell, he seemed like a genuine guy , a man of the people.
Come from very humble beginnings and became one of the greatest footballers of all time .
He was definitely a flawed character, and had a lot of controversy surrounding him , but most people are flawed , what ever people think about him he was definitely a personality .
Rip to a legend.
