I've seen people use that argument before and I'm not having Puskas there. George Best was the best player in the world when the second best player in northern ireland played part-time, he genuinelly came out of a footballing wasteland. George Weah is the same.
But Puskas was the best player in the world when the second, third and fourth best players in the world were also hungarian, he was the figurehead of a golden generation like Zidane was for france's. It's not the same.
VERY good point.
And I interestingly enough was gonna use Weah and Best as my example and I did indeed think twice about Puskas, I even checked his Wiki to check what Hungary won cos I thought I was making a mistake.
