What a player
I had the pleasure to see him at Chelsea and at White Hart Lane.
While not a Spurs fan the team that did teh double dominated Englsih footbal from 1960-67
Standing on the shelf on a wet cold wintry day the likes of Gilzean Cliff Jones and many other fine players.
While in the squad he missed selection for the 66WCF
Later generations will remember his drole footbal chat with Ian St John as Saint and Greavsie a precusor to the Baddiel and Skinner enjoyment of teh great game
The obitiaries will fill the press , it was frst story on BBC news today but his lazy magical finshing is waht made him one of those very special players who I'd rate just behind Pele Best and di Sefano , others rare Cruyff Dixie Dean Messi we can agree to differ
