    RIP  

    I think one of the biggest compliments that Derek Hales ever had was when the late Brian Moore compared his finishing to Gerd Muller.

    He was probably one of the best finishers football has ever had. When I was a kid it seemed most of us tried to do his volleying technique. 
    I read years ago that once his football career finished he had nothing to fall back on and was living in rough conditions, Bayern did something about this when it was brought to their attention.

    Two incredible stats stand out.

    1. In 1972 he scored 85 goals in 60 games for club and country. Messi beat his record with 91 goals in a calendar year, but he played 69 games.
    2. He scored 68 goals in 62 internationals!

    One of the best strikers of all time.

    Mad really as if he was around today he'd be worth about 200m and earn 500k a week.

    Strong, chunky-thighed with a low centre of gravity.
    Such a unique and deadly striker.

    Very sad news.
    Did for us in 1970, but I forgave him and in 1973 when I started playing for Old Sedcopians I bought a pair of Adidas Gerd Muller moulded sole football boots.
    Lasted me for years.
    Thanks Gerd. RIP.
