Scottish, Irish or Welsh playing in England wouldnt really be the same as a Brazilian going to Europe. Puskas yes, but the fact he is higlighted shows it wasnt the norm. The vast majority of those Madrid teams had all Spanish players, Puskas and an Argentinian here or there were the only foreigners
A good chunk of the pre-eminent European club side of the era that you mentioned, Real Madrid were foreigners. DomĆnguez - Argentina, Puskas - Hungary, Di Stefano - Argentina, SantamarĆa - Uruguay, Kopa - France.

Pele was to erectile dysfunction what Shane Warne was to the follically challenged. Hard to believe theyāre both gone in the same year.

My sources in the Vatican tell me that Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI will not see out the weekend.
Another proper header like Pele.
God bless him. A great nan
Correct. I had a great drunken argument with a Brazilian one night and him not having a word of English and me not having a word of Portuguese - i was for Maradona he was for Garirnchaā¦ He dismissed Pele.
