Diego Maradona has died

Legend of a player.

car crash of a human being when he stopped playing

a real character who lit up the game with incredible talent
 
Awww man that’s shit. I mean he was fucking crazy and done well to get to 60 with his lifestyle but still a shock.
 
20 years more like 35 surely he was banging the stuff in the 80s
He started hammering it at Barcelona - 84/85 - and obviously his Camorra handlers in Naples helped exacerbate his habit and associated health problems.

So yep best part of 40 years, he would probably have died a decade or so ago had his pal Fidel not came to the rescue
 
2020 - the gift that keeps on giving!
What a player, troubled character, but a literal footballing genius.
 
The documentary of him was unreal and gave me a massive insight to his career that I didn’t know ( too young to remember him )

RIP Diego
 
What an absolute sickener . The greatest player for me of my generation. A total genius . What a blow . RIP Diego
 
Never seen a fine footballer and I knew on 2 June 1979, that I never would.
Nobody, not even Messi has come close to the heights Diego reached.
Remember seeing him at Hampden... some player at 18 years old, and he stuck out a mile even then. I think he scored as well?
 
The greatest, really gutted at this news.

My other half bought me a retro Argentina 86 top just a few weeks ago.

Argentina will be in mourning.
