I'd go with Maradona as well. While I was too young to watch him play live, what I've seen on film is amazing. And didn't he admit a while back that he handballed it?

Am I the only person whos man-love for Ronaldihno is such that I think he deserves mention here? He wasn't overly impressive in the Champions League final, but game in and game out, he's a pleasure to watch.

Maradona has alot more evidence mounted against him than Bonds, Sosa and McGuwire combined.
Who knows what he was high on at what time and how it affected his play.

From watching video I have to go with Pele
He could cut through defenses like they were not even there.

Brilliant footballer as he was, Pele does generally talk a load of rubbish, tbh.
