Just Fontaine

“I played with two ruptured ligaments. It was impossible to continue.”

“My record is not going to be beaten because the man who wants to beat it will have to score two goals per game.”

“I didn't think about the record for a single second. I was just happy to have won my games.”

“We were amateurs who had a good time. We went to Sweden by boat.”

“In those days, the defenders were very tough. I was often kicked from pillar to post.”

“For my 13 goals, I was given a hunter's rifle. The top scorer today gets a golden shoe, or even a golden car. But I got a rifle.”

“I like all forwards, but I'm in love with Messi. Why? Because he is a complete player.”

“A team is like a beautiful woman. When you do not tell her, she forgets she is beautiful.”

“Scoring goals was my profession. It was what I was paid for.”

“I walked on water one summer.”
