Very sad. A truly great player, in a national team who played the "beautiful game" . His real legacy IMHO is in the Barca academy, and the fruits of that production line.
I remember watching that live. He just left the full back for dead. I'd never seen anything like it and had trouble interpretating exactly how he'd done it!..
Yeh I remember, but waxing your balls seems a bit extreme! Must have been good seeing him play live, very lucky
And JC was lucky to play against the likes of Gary Locke Chopper Harris and Kenny Swain! All kidding apart I was very lucky. Saw Best (and Moore) play for Fulham against Chelsea as well. And Maradona at Wembley too. All in my primary school years
I was lucky enough to see Greavsie play for Spurs when he was still at Chelsea, and I wasn't even born, then.
Just one of your many Walter Mitty moments exposed on here. I thought you were supposed to be at the Gun club showing all the posh ladies your shooting skills ?
