I don't like or even hate Maradona. But he is the best. Athletic's Andoni Goikoetxea is still my idol because of his tackle on Maradona.

It's hard to explain or argue with those who have not watched his performance. He is not a striker. He is more a playmaker. So his performance cannot be simply judged by no. of goals.
