greatest footballer ever?
Slightly before my time (I remember him at New York Cosmos) but until Maradona, pundits seemed to assume Pele was the greatest. After Maradona, they weren't sure.
Played almost all of his career in Brazil with Santos. So, a different football world back then. Until the late seventies, we only saw South American players at WCs. Three Argentinians coming to England in '78 was a big deal.
