Sad news coming out that he is very poorly now and being prepared for end of life care. The GOAT in my eyes.
In my opinion that was the best football match I've ever seen!Posted this earlier on the footy thread...Sad news
First World Cup I remember was 1970
The Man was in his pomp
Never forget that layoff to Carlos Alberto for their 4th goal in the final...just delicious.
Talking to a guy wednesday night whilst i took Layla to martial arts, he played for Chesterfield. He was telling me He went to a Chesterfield legends night. Gordon Banks was there and he did a speech. He was talking about the game v Brazil in 1970 and the save. Banksy said “I have to swear to get the effect of that moment across”. He said when the ball was played across I was scrambling and I saw all the Brazil players in front of me”. (He reeled them off but I cannot remember them). Banksy then said “ bloody hell its Pele” and he launched himself across and he made the save. His swear word was bloody. He also said he is the greatest player he has ever seen.
