Mike Bassett: England Manager (2001) Poster

Pelé: Pelé

Quotes 

  • Pelé : [an interviewer walks Pele into the hotel lounge, unaware that Mike is drunkenly dancing on the bar]  Football brings the world together. It creates a family of nations, where we are all equal...

    Mike : Hey, Pele! You were the greatest striker in the history of football, and you still missed a bloody sitter there in the World Cup in 1970! You were only three foot out, bloody headed it, and Banksy tipped it over the bloody bar.

    Pelé : Oh, Christ, it's the English! Let's get out of here!

  • [last lines] 

    Interviewer : [after Mike and the team leave the plane]  Are you going to stay on?

    Mike : Four more years!

    [cheers from crowd] 

    Mike : I'm staying on!

    Interviewer : [some time into the credits]  Anyone else?

    Pelé : Maybe Korea, Japan...

    Interviewer : Japan? What about England?

    Pelé : Not England though.

    Interviewer : But they've qualified, Pelé!

    Pelé : England?

    [laughs]
