    RIP. He is classed as the best player of all time. Maybe he is maybe he isn’t. But a legend all the sameS

    We can at least all agree to say "one of the best ever".

    RIP

    Girlfriends Dad met him in person, they were sat together on a plane for a couple hours. He doesn't follow football at all so didn't have a clue who he was and Pele just started chatting away.

    Asked about his life, what's Norway like, what does he do, general things. He thought he was a super super nice guy.

    Then he saw him at Viking Football Clubs ground doing a PR thing on the Telly and was like "what the fuuuck."

    RIP Pele.

    In my opinion he is the GOAT.

    In a world before Social Media and fan girls he spent his life promoting football rather than himself. While he did well out of football, football did far better out of him. He deserves a lot of the credit for football being the true worldwide game it is now rather than just a European and South American game.

    T.

    And anyone who has seen the 1958 to 1970’’s Finals would agree. (No, I haven’t seen all of them I only saw highlights of the 1958 and 1962 Finals, b******s)

    RIP.
