Pack it in Mark. If you are wondering on kit colour it isn't the yellow of Brazil, but the deep red of a European country...

...and you know who it is anyway.

I don't know who it is but that "banana" kick Pele had was fantastic! I remember seeing footage as a kid (maybe in gym class on a rainy day) of his doing a corner kick into the goal. Of course that was so long ago I could just be bringing up false memories.

I really don't know... Well, it's either Spain or Portugal, but I'm not that big on soccer.

Why it was Eusebio the "Black Panther" of course.
Brief bio from wiki:

Eusébio da Silva Ferreira, (born January 25, 1942), popularly known simply as Eusébio, is a Portuguese former football forward of Mozambican origin. He helped the Portugal national team reach third place at the 1966 World Cup, and was the top goalscorer of the tournament, and was elected the European Footballer of the Year in 1965. He played at the club Benfica for 16 years, and is the team's all-time top scorer.

Nicknamed "The Black Panther", or "The Black Pearl", Eusébio was notable for his speed and his powerful, accurate right-footed strike. He is considered Benfica's and Portugal's most renowned player and the first world-class African striker. He was elected the 9th best footballer of the 20th century in a poll by the IFFHS.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eus%C3%A9bio

Anyway here's todays entry, not as famous as the previous players, but I watched a documentry on him before the World Cup and he has a very interesting history, to say the least. Anyway he is known as a Brazillian great:

Maybe you should do some of the current stars if you want anyone to guess it. Or hope for THX to come back.

It looks like a Juventus shirt, but wikipedia doesn't mention any former brazilian players.

edit: No, it's the shirt of Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas.

Is it Djalma Santos?

I don't know if it's all the Beckham shit or just that I seem to be more into sports in general, but I find myself kind of wanting to watch socc... uh, football.

Please keep this thread up, I find it interesting. Cheesy

Mark can you take over this thread for a while. I need to have some time off, to sort a few things out.
