Zico is so complicated to classify in terms of position. He played higher than most attacking midfielders but deeper than most second strikers.

Probably my hottest take ever: 🇩🇪Reinhard Libuda vs Bulgaria 1970 is the greatest performance in World Cup history. Yes even better than Maradona vs England/Belgium (obviously not accounting for game importance)
Breaking down Pele's GOAT case -
Peak - top 3
Longevity - Top 10 (despite playing in poor conditions)
Goalscoring - Top 3
Playmaking - borderline top 10
Dribbling - Top 5
Defense - Top 5 (attackers)
Club career - Top 5
NT career - 2nd
Big Games - 1st
GOAT case - worst case 2nd
I have scheduled the matches I will watch between the 1986 and 1990 World Cups (not inclusive of either WC) and they turned out to be 217 full matches and about 250 all touch comps 💀

I cannot comprehend how Scotland never won anything and never even got past the World Cup group stage given the amazing names they had between 1960-1990

I haven’t watched Peter Schmeichel yet but so far, the only 20th century goalkeeper I’ve seen who’s better than Fillol is Yashin. Fillol is absolutely incredible!!!

1969 was Pele’s true comeback year. Footage shows an absolutely insane goal catalogue in addition to fantastic dribbling and ball control reminding us of his peak years.
