Out of hospital and back at home now..

Was a documentary about him on BT Sport a few months ago. Before my time, but I'd heard how good he was. Prolific. And like all genius players, struggled to cope with all that went along with it.
It's a sad thing to say, but he was going to die soon regardless of Covid -
Always surprised he never featured in '66 world cup.
Remember him playing on the ice rink at City in cup
1969/70 season.Showed what he was about in that game.
