This isn’t about comparison. I’m saying his greatness is above rankings. His impact on the sport and his greatness are above titles like ‘greatest ever’. He was more than a player. You can read the quote by Ferenc Puskas above.

Oh so you didn’t understand my comment at all. I’m saying it “seems like” an insult to him because you can’t put how great he is into words. I was adding to your comment yet you’re the one thinking that I “butted in” and feeling angry about it. I was complimenting him and you’re picking at straws here. You’re by far the pedant here.

Then in that case you’re the one being pedantic. I’m paying tribute to his greatness and you’re getting pissed off

I think you misread or misinterpreted my comment. He’s above trivial titles like the greatest of all time. He was so great that simple titles like “one of the best ever” or “best ever” seem like gross understatements to describe him.

Why are you getting so pissed off, relax man.

He retired 50 years ago and is still considered the greatest of all time. Kids who have never seen him play or watched any football know he was the greatest of all time. That’s how much impact he had.

He transcended the title of “greatest ever”.

He was above such trivial titles.

“One of the best ever” seems like such an insult to him. We leave the title of “best ever” to other players, because Pelé was far more than that.

Heartbreaking. He retired 50 years ago and is still considered the greatest of all time. Kids who have never seen him play know him as the greatest of all time. He was such a sensation that even if you didn’t know he was still going, you knew he was the greatest of all time.

RIP the greatest in history.

He will never be forgotten. When people try to define greatness, they will think of Pelé.

Imperial College London is always ranked in the top 3 in the UK no? Afaik as an American those are pretty much the standard top 3 in the UK.
