RIP Gordon Banks
He is certainly the best goalkeeper England have ever produced, and Seaman described him as an absolute gentleman.Its very sad news, the ex-Three Lions goalkeeper said on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast.Gordon was an absolute legend. People say the word legend quite often, but he was a true legend. Its very sad our only World Cup winning goalkeeper has passed away.He was a gentleman, a great guy. I was lucky to have met him a few times and every time I met him he was just an absolute gent.As well as his 1966 heroics, Banks will be also remembered for his iconic save to deny Pele at the 1970 World Cup in Mexico.Pele who apparently shouted Gol as he powered his header towards the net has often said he still cannot believe how he did not score, as he watched Banks sprawl across his line to scoop out the Brazilians effort.And Seaman says it remains the greatest save in football history.Banks’ famous save in 1970 will forever go down in history2

That is the best save EVER – by far,” he added.Not only was it headed down, it was on its way up as well and he still managed to tip it over the crossbar, it was just an amazing save.You still cant believe hes saved it even when youve seen it ten times.
