Best european player ever...

@HBK619 It's the theme music from "The Natural," a film about baseball, composed by Randy Newman.  The title fits Eusebio so well.

When I was 8 years old, Eusebio played 4 home games, scoring 5 goals, for the New Jersey Americans in New Brunswick, just 8 miles from my house. I found this out only a few months ago. If only I'd known.

The choice of Randy Newman's score for "The Natural" is perfect for this genius, who turns 70 today.

For me, and after Zinedine Zidane, Eusébio was the best player that ever lived! The KING!!!

[HBK619]

Qual é o nome da música ?

What the name of the song ?

Eusébio sempre foi humilde e será para sempre um dos pilares de Portugal e do Benfica, mas levou longe o nome de Portugal...pela selecção e pelo clube ... independemente do fanatismo ele sempre jogou pela camisola porque o dinheiro na altura não era o que é hoje, claro que na altura era muito....mas ficou tapado pelos Maradonas e Pelés (e outros enormes jogadores...)

@AnaIsabell The next one is ... Uwe Seeler!!!!!!

Then we have of course Cruyff!

And last but not least: Günter Netzer, Johan Neeskens, Wolfgang Overath, Uli Hoeneß (yes the fat president of Bayern Munich was actually a very good player in the 70`s and had won every major title when he was only 22), Josef Heynckes (the current manager of Bayern Munich)...

@AnaIsabell Better offensive players from 1961 until 1973?!

Let`s see: Okay, we have of course Pele - That one was easy!

Then we have Gerd Müller: Scored 68 goals in 62 games for Germany. Scored 398 goals in 453 games for Bayern Munich. Scored 10 goals at the 1970 World Cup. European Champion 1972. World Cup winner 1974. "Champions League aka EC1 winner" 1974, 1975, 1976. European cup winners cup winner aka EC3 1967...
