Even in fiction, Pele can't got it right...

Saw one jokes running in the internet, about how bad Pele's prediction could be. Well, I don't blamed them, Pele said Nick Barmby will become a world class player.

This one is gold:-

Pele Prediction: During the famous film starring Sylvester Stallone and Michael Caine, Allies star Pele is brutally fouled in the first half by the Nazi opponents. The injured Brazilian claims there is no way he can continue and is carried off. The Allies are 4-0 down, and a recovery is deemed impossible.

Outcome: Pele returns in the second half and inspires his team to an improbable comeback, even scoring a stunning bicycle kick. Even in fiction, Pele's predictions go wrong.

Pele was a phenomenal player but it seems after he retired all he did is talk a lot and often without really knowing what he was talking about.
