Just a question and not scrutinising your list in anyway, but what is your reason for having Maradona 2 tiers above Platini? Going into the 1986 World Cup, Platini was the best player in the world. He had just won Serie A twice, the European Cup Winners Cup and the European Cup with Juventus in the 3 years leading up to the World Cup, along with winning the European Championship with France in 1984.
Then Maradona went and won the World Cup (only through some outrageous cheating), then obviously lead Napoli to the Serie title over the great Juventus and Milan teams, (twice in 4 years from 1986-1990).
I am not sure how a tournament of less than 10 games and winning the league title with the underdogs (they still had a very good team) really warrants him being 2 tiers above Platini, if anything there is not much to separate them both and is unfair on Platini.
Platini was magical.
I think its a case of Maradona being better footballer, and has reached highest peak ever, and the fact he has made the biggest ever impact on the biggest stage edges it over Platini. But Platini for me would be ranked at no.8, just behind the likes of Messi, Pele, Ronaldo, Maradona, Di Stefano, Cruyff and Beckenbauer, and probably above everyone else. However if you asked me why he wasn't ranked in same tier along the likes of Di Stefano, Cruyff or Beckenbauer, I wouldn't necessarily disagree.
But my own criteria would be:
Tier 1: achieved something huge, unmatched and unrivalled in football history and at all levels, with long periods of dominance, always among GOAT discussion
Messi - 8 Ballon D'ors, has won every major trophies and individual awards at club and international level, hold most records in football, extremely talented, insane period of dominance in football (14 times Ballon D'or winner or runners up)
Pele - 3 WC, 1000+ unofficial goals records, won everything at club and country level, pioneer in football, insane period of dominance in football (recognised as best player of the world for at least 7 times from 1958 to 1970)
Ronaldo - won 5 CL as best player/top scorer, all time top goalscorer in football, also at club and international level, hold most records in football, achieved unprecedented success for his clubs and country, extremely clutched/driven, insane period of dominance in football (12 times Ballon D'or winners or runners up)
Maradona - reached the highest ever peak and made biggest impact on the biggest stage, extremely talented, achieved legacy level of success for his club and country. very long period of dominance in football (won most major eligible individual awards from 1979 to 1989)
Tier 2: revolutionised the game and achieved unmatched legacy in football (but lacking one final push to become GOAT)
Di Stefano - most completed player and arguably greatest club footballer ever, with total domination in domestic and European football (but lacking intentional success)
Cruyff - as footballer he was at all time great level, and revolutionised the game as "total footballer" which was unique in football history, with unforgettable performances in biggest stage (but lacking major trophies for his countries)
Beckenbauer - revolutionised the game with his playmaking sweeper role, which was unique in football history. Won everything at club and country level, (however he wasn't as "dominance" as other GOAT during his time, maybe because of him being a defender)
Tier 3 - among all time greats in football history, easily the best player in their respective era with outstanding achievements (but lack of unmatched legacy to go up to tier 2)
Platini - best player in the world during his peaks for few good years, outstanding stats thoughout his career or peak years, won everything in Serie A and also Euro trophy for France as tournament top goalscorer (but probably lack of something extra that would be regarded as unmatched in football history)
Same would go for Garrincha, Puskas, Charlton, Best, Eusebio, Muller, L.Ronaldo and Zidane
