On Beatles videos, you have people slagging off Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga. Here, we have @yeovil50 doing the same about John Terry. WTF has John Fuckin' Terry got to do with this video?
Absolute amazing. Not just the technique of the tackle but for having the confidence and the balls to perform a slide tackle in the box. Most defenders would have just tried to stand him up. Also, the way Moore casually gets up and strokes a pass out to the wing is magnificent.
Even though he is no longer around, I personally think Bobby Moore should be given a knighthood to his name, even if you can't do that change the rules for him.
I got pyjamas for xmas off my kids this year with Bobby Moore on the t shirt. I explained that the picture was from the 1970 world cup and tried to describe the tackle on Jairzinho which I watched as a 7 year old kid. They were very patient and humoured me! Legend is a term which means almost nothing these days but Bobby was that and much, much more.
Today it would be impossible. Platini just explained that Messi has to be protected, so, if he looses the ball, penalty and red card for the defender, whatever he could have done
The Brazil team of 1970 was arguably the greatest team of all time. And we were probably the second best team in the world at that time. It's astonishing how much the world of football has moved ahead of us since then.
Pele said that moore was the hardest defender he ever played against. To all those that are saying that Pele is overrated, he scored over 1200 goals in his career? over rated my arse.
@crazygamer241 Wikipedia is not 100% correct because it is edited by anyone. Pele was a playmaker, he played in the midfield with Clodoaldo and Gerson in 1970. The brazilian equivalent of Muller in 1970 would be Tostão.
@crazygamer241@invino334 For Brazil 1970 , the pioneers of 4-2-3-1, Pele played as a central attacking midfielder. The only forward was Tostao, who he was actually a False 9.
Sometimes the 2 swapped positions.
Pele during his career played as a forward, attacking midfielder and winger.
The forward position he played was that of a ponta-de-lanca, a support striker that drops into midfield and witch has playmaking skills (like Messi or Rooney nowadays).
@darkoneforce2 You're right. Its a 4-2-3-1 avant la lettre. You're very well informed about the brazilian team in 1970 and the tactics, its quite rare finding someone that really knows about that subject.
@bulldoglemsford You're right. And he played against Beckenbauer, Figueroa, Passarella, Rattin, Nilton Santos, Carlos Alberto, Facchetti and many many other legends. He also said that Moore was one of the few that played against him without violence.
Makes me so pissed off when you think of the aclaim and money the likes of John Terry get compared to the great Bobby Moore. Jeez- John Terry is not fit too clean Moore's boots!. Bobby Moore was more than a footballer he was a great man, dignified and loved. No matter all for John Terry's millions, he will never be able to say he is loved as Bobby Moore was and still is..
@estario he was, just because he was captain doesnt mean he is the best defender ever, Puyol wont be rated the best defender of all time by Spaniards...
Franz, Elias Figueroa, Bobby Moore, Maldini. . . they all are great defenders and it is impossible to decide who is the best, franz got 2 world cup, but he had a great team too, different is the Figueroa's history due to the fact that chile wasn't a great team in that time, but incredible is Chile lost only 1-0 by Franz's team due to a 40 meters shot of Müller, I think they all are great defenders in the history ;)
Bobby Moore is selected in the Football Legends team! See the other players in the cool video on my youtube channel (or copy paste the code at the end watch?v=jQPk9WA80Ac)
legendary tackle but Maldini's countless tackles(against Romario in world cup final comes to mind) and Nesta vs France in Euro 2000 were the greatest tackles ever.
Unfortunately, amongst other things, it was Moore's slow reaction to the loose ball and subsequent weak attempt at a tackle that led to the goal.
This was the first World Cup I remember watching and is still, in my opinion, the best ever by some margin. Probably the best ever England team by some margin aswell.
Immaculate footballer Imprial defender Immortal hero of 1966. First Englishman to raise the World Cup aloft. Favourite son of London'a East End. Finest legend of West Ham Utd. National treasure. Master of Wembley. Lord of the game. Captain extraordinary. Gentle man for all time Bobby Moore O.B.E (These are the word inscribed beneath Bobby's statue out side Wembley ) who will put a statue up for one of the current crop
@theblackestnight Of course, but Moore was better, Maldini would never have been as good against such a good Brazilian side as Moore did in that game, don't get me wrong, Maldini was a brilliant player but in my opinion Moore was better.
Oh,and Petsounds,yes he did actually,check out the Doc for yourself ,you will see it,if you have ever played Football you will understand that some players physically have to spit,they can't help it.Its not a bad thing,only when the Camera catches it!
I saw the Doc too,very touching,he was,and still is a BIG Hero of mine,when i was a lad of Ten(the same year as this game)i met him,he was doing a signing session at a Shoe Shop in Reading,to this day i can recall his smile as he looked up at me from the Table he was sat at,he radiated goodness,you can tell he had that effect on everyone he met,live your life like Bobby and you wont go far wrong,where are the England players of that stature today?I'd love them to prove me wrong.
Bobby Moore showed exactly how to make the perfect tackle - skill, timing, patience and toughness.
This should be shown to young kids the world over as a textbook way on how to defend. Today's defenders tend to 'hack' or panic when they are up against it.
If some super-skilled striker is running towards my goal, There is only one man who I want back there.......................Bobby Moore.
If it wasn't for Banks getting the shits in this world cup, we would all now have replica England shirts with two stars above the badge. Moore was fantastic - made Brazillian forwards look like sunday school players. COME ON ENGLAND!
spgenius05 Get your facts right! you very clearly know very very little about Football! Bobby Moore played most of his career at left half! (The Same as Duncan edwards!) Alf Ramsey chose to switch to a 4-4-2 formation. Jack Charlton was a centre half, you un educated southern Numpty!
@matclarence Ramsey played 4-3-3 (wingless wonders) during the build up to the world cup hence the nickname. During the 66 World Cup he famously switched to the 4-4-2 formation for the game against Argentina, For the final he also played 4-4-2 (although it was more like the modern diamond formation). This was the system he stuck with. Ramsey pioneered the 4-4-2 formation in football.
hold on the guy who said bobby moore wouldnt had played if ducan edwards was alive...infact it would had been jackie charlton, not bobby moore...lets have it right how can u disgrace the memory of bobby moore with such a disrespectful comment...a typical northern who knows fuck all about football
@mertonparka u honestly think he would have left bobby moore out of the world cup team...ok where do i start? firstly, Bobby moore reputation as one if not, best english centre halves by not only captaining west ham at a young age, but also apart of A SUCCESSFUL west ham team that were winning trophies. He become a hot propertery not only in england but abroad and even rejected a move to manchester united where he would had been best paid player in the old english first division.
ur a disgrace to evertonians lad.. bobby moore was a great captain, a great footballer and he is respected by all fans espescially evertonians! brian labone wouldve been his partner though ahead of jack charlton. which is grim but labone was a man of such great honour and decided to keep his promise and marry his beloved wife! RIP MOORE RIP LABONE! last of the corinthians!
@Evertonian87 Can you read properly? I have never stated the Bobby Moore wasnt a great player. I pointed out the fact that Ramsey chose to switch to a 4-4-2 formation and slot Bobby Moore( a left half into it) I would imagine that Duncan Edwards,also a left half would have taken that position. Bobby Moore was a great player! Please learn to read properly
"He was my friend as well as the greatest defender I ever played against. The world has lost one of its greatest football players and an honourable gentleman."- Pelé
@EzPz8 Who does? Just cause he was a shit manager, doesn't mean he can't recognise when other players have amazing skill. That's the kind of thing you learn against playing players from all over the world.
@tezzrexx He said Columbia would get to the 1994 world cup final, they were shit at it, thats how clever he is...and did you check out his 100 greatest players or something, loads or average players in it :/ and as a player he was basically a poacher so I dunno why people listen to him as inspiration...
You obviously have no idea of what you're talking about. Brazil had no center-forward in this WC. Pelé, Tostão, Rivelino and Gerson were classic n.10 playmakers in their respective clubs. There were no Gerd Muller or Gary Lineker in the brazilian squad in 1970 and Pelé certainly could not be considered one of those.
@invino334 Erm I think It's you who has no idea what they're talking about! I've watched many games of his and he never done anything exceptional. It's just the usual situation where English media always try and bum up any Brazilian that kicks a ball as being the best that's ever been, I mean look at Ronaldinho, nothing special and media cumming all over him :/
@EzPz8 OK, Pele never done anything exceptional, he was an average player. You're absolutely right. Ronaldinho, Pelé, Kaká, Zico, etc, etc, they were just average players.
@invino334 HA you're one of these idiot's who jumps to extreme's if someone takes a debate to you, did I say he was just average? I'm saying he wasn't the best player of all time he was just good, nothing great.Ronaldinho is over rated you brainless idiot, you have no clue if you've ever rated him. Ironically you've chosen a player who was under rated, under rated basically because he has a boring name and face and isn't Brazilian. If Barry was Brazilian you would be cumming over him. Fact Fact
@EzPz8 The only one who acts like a sheep is you (and not only like a sheep).
Go on with your idols, Gareth Barry, Stephen Warnock and Joey Barton. They're cracking players. They're not like average footballers like Ronaldinho and Pelé.
@EzPz8 Pele not great? Name me 5 better players. Ronaldinho overrated? Go and watch the 2002 WC tapes. Gareth Barry is a nothing player. If he was Brazilian, we wouldn't 'be cumming over him', we would never have heard of him, since he wouldn't rate a place in a third string Brazilian line up.
@FreckletonBoy Maradona, Zidane, Ronaldo, Phil Neville & Puskas! Ronaldinho was only rated cause of his country, if he played for Poland there wouldnt have been as much hype. So Elano, a first team Brazilian got sold to make way for Barry at City, yet Barry wouldnt get in a third string Brazilian team...yeah that makes sense ;)
@EzPz8@EzPz8 Who does? Just cause he was a shit manager, doesn't mean he can't recognise when other players have amazing skill. That's the kind of thing you learn by playing against players from all over the world.
The great Bobby Moore. England and West Ham Captain. He won 108 caps and 90 of those as captain (a number only equalled only by the legendary Billy Wright) A true professional and gentleman. You are right to point out the disgraceful way in which Bobby Moore was treated by the footballing establishment after his career had ended. Moore was, and still is, the only man to ever to lift the World Cup for England.
As I understood it he wasn't even offered an ambassador role. An utter disgrace!
it's a shame (on the british media)that the only work bobby got towards the end of his life was a column in the daily sport and some local radio work.his input on tv at major finals would be so interesting...(HERE'S TO BOBBY MOORE THE FINEST ENGLAND CAPTAIN OF ALL TIME)ps i heard greavsie gave him 25 quid for the bracelet!!!!!!
Actually, Moore was almost always playing as a center-back 4 England @ this time. He was just on the ball & making plays so much that he looks like he's playing as a half-back (as u put it).
greatest tackle of all time,what a pity jeff astle missed the sitter (but we always seem to do herioc failure better than anyone else)brazil were shitting themselves that we'd meet them in the final,they knew we were the only team that could beat them(pele,jairzihno and carlos alberto said as much) but sir alf blew it in the quarters by taking bobby charlton off at 2 nil v germany thus releasing franz beckenbaur (sic) from bobbys pocket and (sigh) the rest is history.
Bobby Moore was just too good

@tezzrexx He said Columbia would get to the 1994 world cup final, they were shit at it, thats how clever he is...and did you check out his 100 greatest players or something, loads or average players in it :/ and as a player he was basically a poacher so I dunno why people listen to him as inspiration...
EzPz8 1 year ago
@EzPz8 Pelé was a basically poacher? Loooooool
You obviously have no idea of what you're talking about. Brazil had no center-forward in this WC. Pelé, Tostão, Rivelino and Gerson were classic n.10 playmakers in their respective clubs. There were no Gerd Muller or Gary Lineker in the brazilian squad in 1970 and Pelé certainly could not be considered one of those.

@invino334 Erm I think It's you who has no idea what they're talking about! I've watched many games of his and he never done anything exceptional. It's just the usual situation where English media always try and bum up any Brazilian that kicks a ball as being the best that's ever been, I mean look at Ronaldinho, nothing special and media cumming all over him :/
EzPz8 9 months ago
@EzPz8 OK, Pele never done anything exceptional, he was an average player. You're absolutely right. Ronaldinho, Pelé, Kaká, Zico, etc, etc, they were just average players.
The best player of all time is Gareth Barry.
Go on, mate

@invino334 HA you're one of these idiot's who jumps to extreme's if someone takes a debate to you, did I say he was just average? I'm saying he wasn't the best player of all time he was just good, nothing great.Ronaldinho is over rated you brainless idiot, you have no clue if you've ever rated him. Ironically you've chosen a player who was under rated, under rated basically because he has a boring name and face and isn't Brazilian. If Barry was Brazilian you would be cumming over him. Fact Fact

@EzPz8 "Pele was just good,nothing great"
"Ronaldinho is overrated"
"Pele was a goal poacher"
"If Barry was Brazilian you would be cumming over him"
It's impossible to take a debate with someone that says these kind of absurd things.
And If Barry was Brazilian he would never be selected

@EzPz8 The only one who acts like a sheep is you (and not only like a sheep).
Go on with your idols, Gareth Barry, Stephen Warnock and Joey Barton. They're cracking players. They're not like average footballers like Ronaldinho and Pelé.
Your opinions are very well based.
invino334 9 months ago
@EzPz8 Pele not great? Name me 5 better players. Ronaldinho overrated? Go and watch the 2002 WC tapes. Gareth Barry is a nothing player. If he was Brazilian, we wouldn't 'be cumming over him', we would never have heard of him, since he wouldn't rate a place in a third string Brazilian line up.

@FreckletonBoy Maradona, Zidane, Ronaldo, Phil Neville & Puskas! Ronaldinho was only rated cause of his country, if he played for Poland there wouldnt have been as much hype. So Elano, a first team Brazilian got sold to make way for Barry at City, yet Barry wouldnt get in a third string Brazilian team...yeah that makes sense ;)

The great Bobby Moore. England and West Ham Captain. He won 108 caps and 90 of those as captain (a number only equalled only by the legendary Billy Wright) A true professional and gentleman. You are right to point out the disgraceful way in which Bobby Moore was treated by the footballing establishment after his career had ended. Moore was, and still is, the only man to ever to lift the World Cup for England.
As I understood it he wasn't even offered an ambassador role. An utter disgrace!

it's a shame (on the british media)that the only work bobby got towards the end of his life was a column in the daily sport and some local radio work.his input on tv at major finals would be so interesting...(HERE'S TO BOBBY MOORE THE FINEST ENGLAND CAPTAIN OF ALL TIME)ps i heard greavsie gave him 25 quid for the bracelet!!!!!!

You are right to precise on british media
because in others countrys that who interest the medias and football's fans
is only the football.
Personally, I admired the great Bobby and the others members of the fabulous four and I was really indifferent at the story
goes and calomny.
The only and real problem for english fans is that there cannot perceive the
real successors of Banks, Moore,Charlton
and Hurst.
Only theirs shadows perhaps..

I was only 13 years old when i saw this
match in 1970 at the tv , perhaps the world cup the most spectacular , what emotion !
England was the only team to do equal
play with the brazilians magicians. I think it's not tomorrow the day, sorry
for english fans, that England will find
again a quartet like the fabulous four : Banks, Moore, Charlton, Hurst.
All the persons that since 40 yars announce their successors (Seaman,
Keegan,Owen,Bekham and others)
laugh at the world.

There is a curious thing : England invented football, it is the country who won the most of european cups and often
without the help of foreign players contrary
with Spain or Italy and her national team
won only one world cup( by the presence
of 4 fabulous players) and none at all
an european cup.
There is the perfect evidence that english clubs have a special spirit, a mysterious alchemy .
When can we see again a great England
to be able to win a world cup ?
Improbable hypothesis.

Actually, Moore was almost always playing as a center-back 4 England @ this time. He was just on the ball & making plays so much that he looks like he's playing as a half-back (as u put it).

it looked good in the situation but if that happened in midfield nothing more would be said.
It was good timing but anyone could of made the tackle if they got the timing right.
Great player though

greatest tackle of all time,what a pity jeff astle missed the sitter (but we always seem to do herioc failure better than anyone else)brazil were shitting themselves that we'd meet them in the final,they knew we were the only team that could beat them(pele,jairzihno and carlos alberto said as much) but sir alf blew it in the quarters by taking bobby charlton off at 2 nil v germany thus releasing franz beckenbaur (sic) from bobbys pocket and (sigh) the rest is history.
