He won a World Cup by himself, something that nobody had ever done before or since. Brazil didn’t need Pele to win (see 1962).
Argentina wasn’t even mentioned among the favorites in 1986. He took a bunch of nobodies to the title.
Personally, I’ve never seen a player so gifted with the ball on his feet. Think Jimi Hendrix or Eddie Van Halen with a guitar.
Pele might have been a more complete player but Maradona was pure genius.
