Perhaps Pele was the best footballer, but I personally saw the game of Maradona and Messi, since the 80s, these two footballers have been the brightest and most effective
Pelé scored 3 goals in his first World Cup at the age of 17. Later on he won two more World Cups. Scored his goal number 1000 when he was 28 years old. No one comes close to Edson Arantes do Nachimento.
For me it's Messi, although I'm not a big fan of soccer I like the way he plays with the ball, I would say it's admirable, an example of dedication or talent, and I also like to support people who speak my language
