RIP.

What a player. I recently watched the 1966 World Cup final in full. He absolutely ran that game.

God no! I hadn’t heard. An amazing player and a decent bloke by all accounts.

I remember I first saw him playing for England schoolboys in 1954 and he scored a 30 yard belter of a shot. Which as you say became one of his trademarks.

He certainly was a tremendous player and a real gentleman as well.
Sad day
