    Spend three minutes of your life watching the video of the player, watch the man, the crowd, the passion and all before today's vast millions exchanged hands...

    Not only was he an amazing player, but he played the game in the right way - a great man

    I guess there are some advantages of being 'not as young' as some, like being around when he was playing, though I only ever saw him on TV.

    A true gentleman and a great ambassador for the sport, and can you imagine the reaction of ANY of today's players to getting lumps kicked out of you by Nobby Stiles.

    RIP

    Stretchered off probably :)

    Eusebio was a true legend of the game and stands alongside Pele, Cruyff, Di Stefano etc as among the best ever.

    RIP.
