Different from other greats:
1. Love for national team. His best always reserved for Argentina. Few stars are like that nowadays as money and club football dominate. Players avoid national callup, so do managers.
2. Lifting a no name club team to 2 championships in the best league that time, dueling with the great trios from holland and Germany, and two runners up too in 4 seasons of 87-90 .
Messi and Ronaldo are also great, but can they go to a club like Napoli? Except those 2, Napoli never won serie a again, even relegated after Diego gone.
Use the cliche phrase now the 1 and only .
Last time I felt sad was Michael Crichton death
