Maradona was better than Pele - Rummenigge

Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge gives his opinion on one of the great debates in football, Maradona or Pele?

[paolobindini]

I saw both, Rummenigge and Maradona : when serie A was the best Liga!!

[MyFlyingEyes]

Rummeniegge !!! What a forward. I remember how good he was. He could score at any moment. True legend of football. Argentina admire you !!!

[mediacenterman]

Karl Heinz was also a baller. He is too humble.

[VenatorVeritatis]

Maradona became champion in the biggest league of the world at that time with an average team. Serie a was full of legends like Gullit, van Basten, Matthäus, Zico, Rummenige, Maldini and so
To do what maradona did and become champion in that league with this team you must be the greatest. A gods gift for all lovers of the game. And his personality was like a true leader. Also he was the most passionate player who I have ever seen.

Rest In Peace el pibe de oro

Maradona himself was a team.
When playing against Maradona, the opposite literally played against two teams.

[aydinnusret]

Good old Rummenigge, you were a brilliant player as well, great insight about Maradona

[pablosuramaidana]

Thanks Rummenigge. Your humility makes you great! From Argentina.

[mrbarr]

Rummenigge.... what a player. Those were the golden years.

[MokenLanX]

Well said by a legend, rummenigge knows what he's talkin about

[LuisMaldunadus]

When your adversaries in football speak good of you. Respect +

[morlvol]

Respect to Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. Speaking the truth here.

[dazzaMusic]

He’s right Pele played in great teams throughout his career whereas Maradona turned teams into winners on his own

[nahdi]

Maradona commands a massive respect from players of his time ...who saw him play..

[apachelogiano]

Maradona is definitely the greatest football player of all time.
The most important and influential. And possibly ... he is also the best with the ball at his feet.

[beltek]

Maradona was a one man wrecking machine while Pele was supported by 10 greats to achieve his feat

[jane_]

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is absolutely right. What a fine speech. Maradona had a spirit that was bigger than life. He had a fantastic effect on people, they transformed in the presence of Maradona´s energies. Maradona was like the Sun; he transformed people with his spirit and smile. Just watching him on a video, his presence feels like something very, very unusual. Mandela has the same kind of sacred spiritual influence which transforms people.

From Buenos Aires, Vielen Dank to the great Karl Heinz Rummenige!

[arminius]

growing up in Germany playing in the youth league in the 70's we all considered Rummenigge to be the best German player at the time but we also knew that there was another player from another planet who was called Maradona, der beste Fussballer aller Zeiten!

[rituraj]

Amusing how greats pay tribute to a genius while slobs on keypads go yakkety yak.

MARADONA IS THE BEST FOOTBALL PLAYER IN HISTORY. LOVE AND RESPECT FROM AFGHANISTAN.
