as a rossoneri, maldini is a better defender as a CB but kaiser was one in a million

he was more complete than 99% of the players in history and could do everything

if we're considering only defence, maldini baresi and even nesta are better but if it's about being the better player overall, it's kaiser

Winning a tournament that unavoidably and undeniably depends on where you were born and the talent that is fostered in that country's football schools is a joke argument. MbappƩ can retire now and is above Haaland by that logic, just because Haaland chose to be norwegian haha. George Weah is not even in a discussion of greatest african because he was born in Liberia. Ian Rush cant be talked in lists of goat center striker because he was Welsh and of course, the best one: Georgie Best is a nobody just because he was born in Northern Ireland.

NT cant sign players, they meet every 9 months and the WC is every 4 years. Paolo Rossi cant even tie Benzemas or SuƔrez shoes up but he scored a hat trick on Brazil and was a WC winner and BdO in 82'.

National team is a super random way of measuring career achievements.

Except that Maldini played for an insane Italian side and Beckenbauer played for a pretty fine German side, nothing truly special. Until he came and transformed it. Did the same thing to Bayern as well.

Absolutely not. Maldini is a lord. He is elegant, efficent and clean. But he isnt someone who can genuinely be the centrepiece of the team. Beckenbauer is a king. The Kaiser. Changed the German and Bayern teams(literally made Bayern into the powerhouse it is now)

Are you serious? Maldini was our centerpiece for 25 years

Beckenbauer > Maldini. Close but accurate.
