    He’d often joke about dark topics.

    Zagallo’s humour.

    German football legend Franz Beckenbauer has died at the age of 78.

    I saw him play twice - at Wembley on 30th July 1966 and then in Cardiff in 1976.

    RIP <rose>

    Saw him play once in an all-stars team at Wembley, late 70s/early 80s I'd think.

    Superb defender, masterful control of the ball at his feet. How we could do with someone like him right now...

    RiP <rose>

    Germany's Bobby Moore. Both defenders read the game well, but Beckenbauer was really quick with it. Wonderful footballer.

    R.I.P. Herr Beckenbauer.

    Was one my heroes when I was growing up, an outstanding defender. Thank you for the happy memories.

    When reflecting on the 66 WC final, Beckenbauer said he was marking the best player in the world at that time.....Bobby Charlton.
    Beckenbauer was only 21 in that tournament and was named as the young player of the tournament.
