Back in the good old days players had little protection from referees. Pele was kicked black and blue by opponents in the WC in England in 1966. Some tackles were more like GBH than sport. I have no issue with you preferring Messi as the GOAT. That may well be a temporary crown with Mbappe being only 23. Ray (Cheshire, England).

There should be a hierarchy. World Cup wins, Continental cups (I.e. Champions League/ European Cups), domestic league, domestic cups. Poor Stanley would barely feature. I’m fairly relaxed about this. 😉 Ray (Cheshire, England).

December 21, 20223 yr Video on the reaction of the Argentine pax on a flight from Istanbul to Buenos Aires after the penalty that gave the victory to Argentina. I wonder if the pilots reported that the plane had entered ... severe turbulence!😁 https://youtu.be/AE053YPO6Xs
December 29, 20223 yr Moderator It’s just been announced that Pele has died. Having won three World Cups there’s a justifiable claim he was the Greatest. RIP and thanks for some great memories. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42751517 Ray (Cheshire, England).
