Who's a better player - Lionel Messi or Diego Maradona?

Roberto Baggio was one of the most skillful playmakers during his prime.

Do you mean a bookmaker or bookie who accepts wagers on football games? Or are you referring to these bookmarks?

His era the football very dirty and even more the matches are fixed. He also need to earn extras for his drugs.
Diego Maradona's shirt says "No drugs" and on Michel Platini's shirt it says "No to corruption". It is ironic that both did not walk the talk.

Gareth was the more prolific scorer, but Zidane was the greater artist. If goals were the main measure, Miroslav Klose would be the greatest World Cup player of all time.
Please read again carefully. Bale outscored Zidane in every category except in assists:

Bale outscored Maradona in every category. Yet he'd never make it to the top 10 (or even top 20) greatest players of all time. Not even in the British pantheon.

Stats don't make the footballer, unlike tennis or cycling. They don't call it the beautiful game for nothing. Some of the all-time greats like Beckenbauer or Maldini didn't even score goals. Messi as a striker scored 2.5x more goals than Maradona (midfielder, playmaker), but no one would put Messi in the god category with Maradona.

Please do not try to confuse, when you cannot convince. The comparison between Bale and Zidane is using the stats of 2 Real Madrid players. Do not compare apples with oranges.
