Franz Beckenbauer

[Sharpies volley]

Made the game look easy. Like he was playing in the park with his kids on a Sunday morning

Got his autograph, one of the games true legends.

Beckenbauer (no.4) scores at Goodison in the World Cup Semi Final (1 minute 56). Not sure where Lev Yashin was going. Maybe it was deflected?

To be fair to Lev, he did catch that pretty well......shades of Jagielka .

I thought it was the other way round? I.e he turned 1860 down?

I think you are right. They annoyed him in a youth game or something.

I remember when my dad bought me my favourite pair of football boots at school, aged 12 (Beckenbauer Supers).
RIP Der Kaiser!

I think you are right. They annoyed him in a youth game or something.

Yeah he was an 1860 fan. Was all set to join them with a bunch of other players in his youth team but played 1860 in the final of a tournament a few weeks before he was set to join them and got into a fight with their team so jibbed them off.

Der Kaiser, Die Mannschaft don’t make them like him anymore, definition of a Rolls Royce player

Rip. Der Kaiser.
A footballing icon .

He could play a bit

RIP “Der Keizer”. For me personally the second most fascinating footballer to watch after Diego Maradona. So ahead of his time, could you imagine what his transfer fee would stand at in modern times. Visionary of a footballer and a gentleman to boot.

Ready?

How much would those four be worth in today’s transfer market?
Four of the greatest players to ever grace the game!

I'm very grateful they graced Goodison.

No circus revolving round them...no posing or posturing or media braggers..

Priceless

Still looked class in that World Cup semi where his arm was in a sling.
