Good choices. In a world of sterile boring football the likes of Garrincha are sorely missed. Played football instinctively with his God given talents and disability. Let us not forget there are only two players who have won the World Cup single handily: Garrincha did it first in ’62 and then Maradona in ’86.

zico was for me a fantastic player in the 70′s.blessed with grace and presence.he would be like an invisible assassin popping up in front of you and the ball was in the back net.his free kick against scotland was pure magic.

I used to have a football video when I was a kid, simply titled ‘Brazil’. I watched it every Saturday morning before I played football and I swear it made a difference! Pele has always been my favourite player and I have a signed shirt of his that takes pride of place in my office, but Garrincha is a very close second. His story is unique – a mercurial talent and a true legend.

Nice article, Chris.

Great Article.

I’m amazed somewhat that Didi and Garrincha are two players that are almost unknown amongst many football fans today.
