Diego
Well-known member
Thought I was one of your favourite players for a second thereI am fascinated by Diego (Maradona, not the fmttm poster, who is also a great lad btw). But the thing is no one really saw him play outside World Cups, Serie A wasn’t on UK TV in the 80s. Same goes for Pele, who most people really only saw in one Word Cup.
So I think it’s easier to build a “rapport” with players who played in England (pre-90s) like George Best, or foreign players who played in the post-90s era where La Liga and Serie A were broadcast live.
Not a single German or Italian mentioned on this thread, mind. I should give an honourable mention to Beppe Signori.
