Talk:New Maradona

Too many
This article should not mention every player who has at some point in his life been called "New Maradona" by an obscure/unreliable/exaggerating media source. For example, the di Santo case:


 * "Up to 10 Premier League clubs are chasing the signature of 6ft 4in, 18-year-old Argentine wonderkid Franco Di Santo - described as the new Maradona. (Sunday Mirror)"

That shouldn't be enough, nobody is seriously calling him the "New Maradona" (unless they're blind, or his agent). It was just a line to fill space. And I'm taking di Santo as an example, from the list I think only Latorre, Ortega, Riquelme, Tévez and Messi have been seriously dubbed "New Maradona". Fache (talk) 23:02, 28 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I've removed Mauro Zárate because the source was not very strong or even serious-sounding — it was a single exclamation on a BBC text update service. &#39;&#39;&#39;tAD&#39;&#39;&#39; (talk) 01:20, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

Messi was not the captain during the 2010 World Cup
Shouldn't that be edited? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.4.80.2 (talk) 17:14, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

Why did you remove Messi from the list of new Maradonas?
He should be there. Also others were removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.2.121.77 (talk) 15:47, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
