The best player ever in their prime?

Ive watched all greats since Ronaldo and Zidane until todays Messi and Ronaldo, but I must say Ive never seen any one as gifted as Ronaldinho, Im amazed by Messi's skills but I watched this film on Ronaldinho and what he used to do on the pitch incredible.

So my question simply is; Who do you guys think is the most talented player ever, not necessarily the greatest and most accomplished but best in their prime in terms of over all skill set?

    Prime Ronaldinho was an unreal player, some of the things he could do was ridiculously good, unplayable.

    from an entertaining pov, he's the most enjoyable player I've ever seen in my life, the most talented player ever put a foot in a football field.

    Shame he didn't last very long due to his carelessness, but at the height of his career, he had no equal.

    I don't think it was Ronaldinho. He inspired Brazil to a World Cup win, granted, but it was achieved when all of the favourites were misfiring. And when he moved to Barcelona, and was cast as THE star player, THE poster boy, his form collapsed.

    The best player in his prime? I would have to say Maradona. Pele may have been the fulcrum of the great 1970 Brazil side, but nobody dominated a tournament as much as Maradona in the 1986 World Cup.

    When people see the team of former superstars not doing so hot, the first thing they blame is the superstars. This happened w/ my fav team the Suns and Nash. People think Nash is apparently a bad PG now just cause the Suns don't make the playoffs. Similarly, just cause the Mavs aren't the hottest in the West, Dirk is not looked at but it's instead Melo, Kobe and all the high seeds.

    The best player I've ever seen in his prime is probably Zidane, GOAT, Ronaldinho in his prime beats Messi as well....
