Garrincha

legend 5/5

Igor Savtchenko - He was not born with deformities, he was involved in a serious accident, don't know what. I watched hidden legends on BBC couple years ago and it said that almost 60% of Brazilians rate Garrincha as the best ever player, more so than Pele.

Did you know he badly hurt his legs whilst he was younger and doctors said he may never walk again? Can you imagine what defenders would do if the played against him today? He would surely be the best player in the world, alhough he may have retired because the defenders would probably have snappped.

agree.. Yepper must be an american idiot who thinks he knows about soccer and doesnt have any idea of what is the game about

the defenders didn`t suck.... garrincha made them suck! He was a genious, Yepper....Since you don`t know anything about soccer you shouldn`t make any comments about it... YOU suck!

This is ridiculous.. all the defenders suck!
Today the level is higher in general!

que gambetas, extraordinario les dava unos vailes a los defensas....
min 1:24, min. 2:25 mmm....1 def. naah no es suficiente,... 2 mmm nah, 3 bien hoy si voy x D, min 2:36 OOLEEE

When Garrincha and Pele where on the team and played together, they never lost a match. That speaks for something. Also, if Garrincha was not born with deformities and not been an alcoholic, he might have been even better than Pele.
