Would love to aqve seen Best play, just not old enough

[pete 2,499]

Pele

Cruijff

Maradonna

 

Don't forget when Pele played the ball was much heavier and the boots were also probably heavier. Most keepers were lucky to kick the ball past the half-way line in those days,now they can throw it further. When Pele almost scored from the half-way line against Russia(i think) it was something never seen before, now it is far easier. It is not totally fair to judge on tv footage as it was a different type of game.

If Juve do get relegated Fulham want to sign him. I can't see him going there, they're too pish!

 

 

Is it not true that Italian players that play outside Italy don't get seleted for the national squad. I heard this is what stopped Del P going to man u years ago.

 

If so theres no chance he will go abroad.
