Agreed, funny thing is, and maybe what a lot of the younger generations miss, because you had to feel it too, is how much of a global icon he was even back then, when I was a kid, Pele was so well thought of and talked about around the world, the amount of attention he got wouldn’t look out of place even by today’s social media standards.The Greatest. The Ali of football.
Think whilst Messi and Maradona were better players, there was a certain romance and popularity around Pele that I’ve never really experienced since with any other player, your mother, your sister, your dog, your cat, literally EVERYBODY, whether they liked football or not, seemed to love him, we know the end is coming and we all hope it’s swift and pain free, but there’ll be generations of people who his passing will genuinely affect.

By the noises coming out of the hospital, they should just pump him chock full of morphine and let him drift off.Grim. When his time is up, I hope he goes peacefully.

Sadly sounding like the end may be approaching.

Christ. Christine McVie, Mark Lanegan, Julee Cruise, Coolio, Martin Duffy, Robbie Coltrane, Terry Hall (yes, I know he was a rag but I loved the Specials), and now Pelé's about to join the celestial football team. Cancer is a bastard.

Fortunately, Fentanyl patches usually stop any suffering.Grim. When his time is up, I hope he goes peacefully.
