GOAT knows GOAT

Bradman is the GOAT of Cricket batsmen though.

Hope someone is keeping an eye on Ronaldo tonight.
I worry for that boy

Pele for me, won 3 world cups plus his records.

Send him a loaded gun if you're that bothered .

Pele for me, won 3 world cups plus his records.

Different era, and his contribution was in one match in 1962 too, as he was injured during the second match onwards.

Also, had to include goals in friendlies and the army matches for his ego so I can never take him seriously.

Played all his life in the Brazilian league.

Maybe if I’d have seen him play, my answer would be different.

Nope. Get back to me when he's won his third World Cup.

Nope. Get back to me when he's won his third World Cup.

Not everyone can be future Phil Foden (if the FA ever sacks Southgate)!

 

[Frankie lad]

I suppose so….but why no mention of Kinkladze?

Hopefully that's the end of comparisons with the Portuguese show pony. Messi is head and shoulders above any player I've seen and I'm nearly 60.
