thread_title:  Requested move 

message: The Brazilian team, led by Pelé (who was in his fourth and final World Cup), Jairzinho, Rivelino and Tostão, is often regarded as the greatest team ever. 
:This line is confusing (atleast to me). It gives the impression that Pele was the captain of Brazil but the captain was Carlos Alberto (which is not mentioned anywhere in the article). Could this line be changed to the effect that these four were only the Brazilian forwards. Tintin (talk) 12:17, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It would probably be a bit better to say the 1970 team is often regarded as the best ATTACKING team ever. As many coaches, analysts, pundits and fans note, the Brazilian defence of 1970 was suspect, extending in a backward chain that included the keeper Felix. Italy's equalizer in the Final reinforced this impression for many.  Virtually every serious analysis of the 1970 Cup makes this point. I added the word "attacking" to make a finer, more qualified distinction. As for Pele it is fair to say that he "led" the team, although Alberto was the captain. His reputation, skill and inspirational exhortation was clearly a key force. In the Final he proved the point, scoring one goal, and creating two.

text: This is the only article that uses such superlatives. There is little praise for Brazil in the 1958 article and reading the 1954 article, you won't even suspect that the Hungarians were any good. Tintin (talk) 07:07, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pele 

message: Beckenbauer was not fouled but try to "win" a penalty the resulting dive/simulation caused him to break his clavicle. If he were fouled it would have been a penalty (it was not given). Reamarkable show of courage to play on - but the injury was his own fault.(yitzak) 11:52, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

message: In the notes it says that "The rules on substitution were relaxed. In previous tournaments only injured players could be substituted. This tournament allowed up to two outfield players to be replaced at any time and for the goalkeeper to be replaced if injured"
Were substitutions of any kind allowed in earlier World Cups? I've got several books that site Puzach of the USSR as the first World Cup substitution (half time in the opening match against the hosts, replacing Serebrianikov). I may be wrong, but players in previous World Cups were forced to limp out the match, or go of and leave their team a man short. Can anybody confirm otherwise? Wholemeal 03:43, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Another quote from Freddi (see 1950 talk): "Early sources credit the own goal… to Guzmán, and in this case they're right.  Some Italian publications city Peña, but it's clearly No.14 on the replay (Peña, the No.3 wearing the captain's armband, is nowhere near the ball)." Mjefm 18:52, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

message: As the anon pointed out when he removed the statement earlier, this is clearly an untrue statement, as 19 goals wasn't even a record in 1970. Hungary and West Germany both managed at least 20 goals in 1954, so either our source for this article is wrong, or there is some kind of proviso that I'm missing. – PeeJay 18:29, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The wording of "Their total of nineteen goals in the Finals has yet to be been beaten" is obviously wrong and I just read the source, which I should have done before reverting, and it says nothing about the team's total output, so someone inserted it before the referenced material. It was  by  who hasn't been active for the past month. I'll remove that phrase now and if someone could review the rest of that addition, or , that would be appreciated.

thread_title:  "Brazil's 19 goals has yet to be beaten"? 

message: Rather than undoing my revision to keep a sentence that looks terrible, why didn't you improve it? I can almost guarantee that there is a better way of formatting that sentence than "champions England," and I am really tired of people undoing my revisions just to leave bad stuff behind. There wasn't even a link to the associated section with regards to this "discretionary plural," and I can almost guarantee that if you don't change the sentence in some way, other viewers will see it as wrong, and more changes be made.
