Yes, i think it will be very interesting to see the full average for the 1985 Calendar Year. Sure his average from january 85 to may 85 was unreal. We will see if he will keep this form until december. I'm going to post the 1985-1986 Serie A season in the next days. Of course, we already know that his 1984-1985 rating was his top in Italy so...
In Serie A 1987/88, I get the impression that Maradona comes closes to consistently replicating his World Cup 1986 form? Perhaps a mistaken impression, but from the available videos of Maradona, I'm not sure I've seen him perform more consistently than he did in periods of Serie A 1987/88.
Yes, he was very good in the 87-88 campaign. He won the scoring title and i think it was his 2nd best season going by ratings...but we will see this later. Also, i dont know is anyone is interested, but i will probably do the ratings for the entire Napoli team later on when we finish Diego's run in Italy.
The second half of the 1985/86 season Maradona was pacing himself to arrive at the World Cup unburned. In addition he had a cartilage issue since a Venezuelan fan kicked him during the World Cup qualifiers, which prompted the choice of either having surgery or risk breaking down at any moment. He chose the latter and fortunately for Argentina no apparent signs hampered his performance at the World Cup.

Its a 58* game streak still active at the end of 85\86 Serie A season. Im wondering if there is any streak similar to this one. *i write 58 but we miss the rating of Napoli-Cremonese in the 84-85 season, btw he got a 6.5 from Gazzetta & 7 from La Stampa about that game so im pretty sure Corriere gave at least 6 to Diego. RECAP so far next.

MISCELLANEOUS: So as we already know, Maradona 1984-1985 was the best rated season for the Argentina Star by all accounts. Gazzetta, Corriere and Guerin d'Or all agree with the top 3 position ranking: 84\85 at the 1st place, then 87\88 and 3rd the 85\86 season. Then things are a little bit different: Corriere and Guerin d'Or put the 86\87 season at the 4th place, while Gazzetta got the 89\90 season. At the 5th place 88\89 for all sources. Of course the 90\91 season is the worst for everyone as well.
