Just watching the short film on BT about Garrincha and if not for his injury that plagued him in the mid 60's till retirement in 73, I think we would be talking about him more than Pele as brasils greatest player.
A shame that he also fell to alcoholism at points in his career, and had a troubled life off the pitch, because of it and it really destroyed his career (attacking his missus was out of order and inexcusable)
