I recall watching the hand of god game. Yes, the cheating little [oops] handled the ball into the net but what happened before that was even worse.

Before the first goal was scored, Maradona was going down like he'd been shot every time we went near him and the ref kept giving the foul. He was even booking us when we were clearly winning the ball fairly. When he went on that mazy run and scored, our players were almost scared to tackle him. As a result, he was able to score a goal that he'd never get anywhere near under normal circumstances.

His legacy is to show future generations that you can go down without being fouled, get a free kick and get opposition players into trouble. I look at all the simulation that happens now and i hate it. It ruins the game. And it's all because of Maradona.

This club has always been representative of the people; about earning success. It's not about cheating. I wouldn't want Maradona within a million miles of the managers chair.

i think hes a great guy. loads of passion. great to see a manager with a real respect for his players. fckin raffa drove me crazy with that emotionless football. stone faced nonsense.


Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

Just break the bank and bring in the best manager out there, GUUS HIDDINK, if we want him badly enough am sure we could get him, lets just stop messing around and bring in the top manager available which is he.

i think u must have been taking more drugs than maradona did.i dont think he can single handedly be blamed for diving players in the modern game,do you remember Klinsman?yes he handled the ball for the"hand of god goal"but the ref and lino should have seen it and shilton should still have won that ball.and the goal he scored for there 2nd was worth 2,i dont believe that the england players were scared to tackle him,they just couldn't get near him.
he's the biggest star at this world cup and he's not even playing

No mate, i don't take drugs and never have done. Why not watch the match instead of just the highlights. Maradona is a cheat, pure and simple. He brought diving to the modern game and he took performance enhancing drugs.

To be honest, it's complete planks like you who have no clue what this club is about, so go on and shout about how you want a rich arab owner to buy success, how you want footballs worst ever cheat to manage the club and how you want the worlds merenaries playing for us. That really represents the people of Liverpool, doesn't it.

John Barnes was crap at best at international level. In an England shirt, even Terry Fenwick made Barnes look average. But it's funny, because Barnes was a sub that game and completely changed the game when he came on.

Anyway, i'm not questioning Maradona's ability, only his morals.
