RIP, very sad loss. 57 is no age.

Such a player, R.I.P

He was a Brilliant player who got addicted with drinking which was his downfall but still brilliant player R.I.P

Very sad. Surely one of the greatest that ever played the game. Anyone who can remember the 1982 World Cup in Spain will never forget him. A genuine star on and off the field
