Hello ED1.I am fifty two and I remember that I was impressed with the Argentinian Passarella. He was not tall for a centre back but he was great in the air. In your opinion, was he good?

{Ed001's Note - I don't know mate, it was before my time really, I only vaguely remember him.}

From what I remember of him he was solid, not much got past him but he could play as well, was an all round excellent defender. I think he was the captain of Argentina if I remember correctly, and very well respected, not so well known here but there wasnt the social media etc that you get now.

I do remember him being on the front cover of a huge world cup poster on my bedroom wall though 😄 (among others), at a time when the World Cup seemed to be a much bigger thing than it is now. No Champions League, Sky etc back then.

Good shout though HL, had forgotten all about him.
