520 1 $a"For ten years Banks was not only England's Number One, but was acknowledged to be the best keeper in the world - perhaps the best there has ever been." "It wasn't always like this. Banks left school to become a coalman's mate, lugging heavy sacks around his native Sheffield. And his early amateur football didn't suggest his day job was going to change soon - he was released from his second club after conceding fifteen goals in two games." "But only a few years later, Banks was England's first-choice keeper, winning the World Cup in 1966 and making the 'Save of the Century' against Pele in 1970." "It was all cut brutally short. Returning home from the Stoke City ground in 1972, his car crashed into a van and he lost his right eye. Banks struggled to come back, but the standards he'd set himself seemed cruelly out of reach." "It shouldn't have been possible, but Banks did fight back, confounding medical opinion to play in the American league alongside other legends such as Pele, George Best and Franz Beckenbauer."--Jacket.
