Question to hardcore football experts - Has there not been a single all time great after Diego Maradona? Mark <Pammiesheart(a)yahoo.co.uk> writes: Van Basten and Maldini were among the best since Maradona, but they weren't as good as Maradona.

So lets start with 1990. I also started watching World Cup since then (I was too young in 1986, barely remember the final). 8 nations have won the World Cup. How many did th... 13 Jul 2010 22:00
