RIP Pele

[lancs blue]

Sad day

A great player and also a great man.

Not many were made in his mould

Terribly sad news. He defined the word 'legend' for me. Brought a smile to every face when he played. G O A T and a gentleman.

What a player and ambassador for the sport we love. As a late 80's child I've only seen videos of him play. That Brazil 70 team was magic.

Gutted about this. Great player but also a humble man from humble beginnings. He always kept a soft spot for Goodison. The first true great

Pele to me was the Pope of football. Maradona, naturally, was the devil.

A week or so ago I sort out this from the 1970 World Cup. It's sublime. I can't begin to imagine many Pele and Brazil could have scored if they had put every chance away and the refereeing hadn't been so lenient.
