RIP.

Never really got to watch much of him, but have heard the name enough times to know he must have been a proper player.

If he is still being hailed now, he had the talent to leave a proper mark on the world.

Read a few days ago that he was hospitalised... sad to hear he didn't make it

One of the best players of all time; 5 consecutive European Cup wins in a row. Real Madrid legend, RIP

Absolute legend. I'm currently reading a book on El Clasico, in which he is mentioned many times. Sad to hear of his passing, but what a life he lived.
