Where's Pele? the greatest footballer theres ever been and his nations homecoming World Cup and the greatman isnt to be seen???

He's around because Alan Shearer said he'd been chatting to him.

He's everywhere doing promotional work.

Dead.

Filming some more erectile dysfunction adverts.

He's too busy predicting Brazil will win the World Cup. That was what he says every four years when asked.

Anyone would think he played for them.

I don think he is popular in Brazil

Yeah, they hate Pele in Brazil.

Why?..

The greatest ever? Dont think so, Maradona was the greatest player ever.

Aside from his rather sketchy and debatable football records, he constantly puts his foot in his mouth. gaff after gaff.

he has become a national embarrassment figure.

Don't think so. I know which of the two I would pick for my side in the school playground.

Isn't his son in trouble - maybe Pele doesn't want to be asked question about that so staying out of the limelight?

Maradona all day there. Tight space and being closed down by everyone who isn't a goalkeeper, that's made for Diego.

Passes of perfection, setting up fantastic goals, speed, agility, fantastic skills and a fair share of goals himself.

In trouble?

he is in jail for 33 years!

Pele was a great player, but he needed a decent team to thrive.

Maradona was god among men, literally if you remember a certain goal from 86. He could marshal a average team and pretty much take them to victory.

He's been doing Subway adverts with Sturridge.

Ah - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-27652832

How long would you get for such crimes here?

Probably kept away as he was disappointed Fred got called up in place of him.

Brazil would probably get as far as they have with a 73 year old (I'm guessing) Pele rather than Fred. He'd have better movement anyway!
