Although I'm from Argentina and I have many Brazilian friends, it's not a secret that there is a kind of ongoing battle when it comes to soccer between the two countries...

On of the main arguments is about who the best player ever is...Maradona or Pele?

In my opinion they are both great soccer legends.. but I think Maradona is the more natural talent (I can't say I'm not biased but by watching videos I think he had more natural skill)

Here is the pick in the Maradona spot..so make your choice :)

I think maradona had more skill.. pele was a great player as well, but maradona had more of what we would call "gambeta", he did some awesome stuff!

Definitely Pelé. Maradona was the better dribbler, but Pelé was much better at shooting, header, reading the game, and was more creative, more of a team-player... I even think Cruyff was better than Maradona. (I you think: 'Who's Cruyff?' you should be very ashamed of yourself)

pele, he scored a goal that took nearly 30 years to beat, when he was 17, and even the next great goal (which, i admit was maradona's) might not have been better, and he scored another one thousand two hundred and somethingy-something goals.

Cyruff? Cruyff. And I think he's better than Maradona.
By the way, consider that Maradona was unstoppable at one World Cup ('86), but Pelé was at two ('58 & '70).

Maradona won a world cup by himself. Pele in 58 had garrincha, didi, vava among other great players and in 70 had the best national team ever to play in a wc backing him up - jairzinho, tostão, rivelino... Maradona had more influence in his single wc win than pele in both!

after reading a book about Pele and knowing about him and about his accomplishments much more better, i really changed my mind ,I think Pele is better :D

Of the two, Maradona is more talented. And also he was playing in the '80s, the period in which football turned from an absolute joke into a properly competitive sport. Let's face it, Pele was shit, but just quite good in relation to everyone around him.
