When you think that the pitches were awful, no shin pads, tackles were career threatening, often played with injuries. You cannot compare this genius with the modern day footballer. He was a one off, never to be seen again, thanks George for all the great memories you gave us United fans.🙌👏👏🙏

I would end up killing one of them. And i love it when i see one of them getting a right doing for at least 3 minutes, wich is a long time when getting your face caved in. And the rest of them all run away lol just like the true rats they are. They dont help each other, its each to there own, dog eat dog rat race with that lot.

He was such a looker! Even though the drink did harm to his looks. That says something about how gorgeous he was. Do the Irish drink a lot? He just learnt to booze, it´s the culture. it is illness, it changes the body, it is really hard to get rid of booze. God bless his soul. He went to an alcoholics anonymous meeting. "My name is George Best and I´m an alcoholic. They said yes, we know." He was so witty and fast.

George Best was simply the best footballer in the world at the time. He lost the fire in his belly early on, and he quit the game in 1972. Of course, it was essentially a long slow slide into an alcoholics death. Very sad, but as they say, he did it his way. It's worth remembering that at the time he played the pitches weren't pristine and well cared for - they were waterlogged, full of holes, and uneven. Just extraordinary. Why did people want to fight him? Well, look what personalities go through today, it's no different. He could never again be the "man on the street" after his football days.

George Best : " if I had to choose between dribbling past 5 players and scoring from 40 yards at Anfield or shagging miss World, it'd be a hard choice. Thankfully, I've done both." What a legend

I Love the Guy...The Greatest footballer thats ever kicked a ball. I was luckly and saw him multiple times in my younger years. Went tona game where Man United won 8-2 and George scored 6 goals. The guy was the fifth Beatle apparently... To me The Busby Babes were an incerdible team. Best, Charlton,Law,Crerand, Stepney,Folkes,Stiles... The Greatest team ever after all the Munich disaster... Love you mate. I was at that game. Just done an interview with inside United their official programme and i maimly talked about the glory days. Matt Busby etc. Gob Bless you George. The worlds greatest player ever....David Fielding. The Chameleons. Love to all. Xxx

Best stopped playing top level at 26 so he could drink, when you think that Van Basten had his career robbed from him at 28 with a cruel injury and what he would have done for 8 more years of playing , it definitely wouldn’t have been spent drifting from one small time club to another , it would have been spent being at the top of his game , the reality of George Best is of someone who couldn’t be arsed , simple, the greatest player ever wouldn’t have played at Stockport county , Bournemouth & Cork Celtic that’s for certain …..

Nice to see the 2 women on the panel here not taking offence at the fact George had 7 girls in 24 hours. They just reply, "it was their choice". These days women would run a social media campaign to have him cancelled.
