My grandad is a die hard city fan. Season ticket for over 50 years. I once asked him who he thinks the best ever is and without a seconds pause he said “Duncan Edwards. He could do everything” and I could see the emotion in him. I only ever got to see Duncan on videos and tv but good god he’s phenomenal

THE GREAT PELE WOULD HAVE COME VERY NEAR AND IN COMPARISON TO THE LATE INCOMPARABLE DUNCAN EDWARDS BUT THE LATTER DIED TRAGICALLY YOUNG BEFORE HE COULD REALIZE HIS FULL POTENTIAL. BUT DUNCAN WAS BIGGER AND MORE POWERFUL THAN PELE AND HE COULD PLAY IN ANY POSITION. HAD HE LIVED THROUGH THE SIXTIES HE AND NOT BOBBY MOORE WOULD HAVE BEEN ENGLAND'S VICTORIOUS CAPTAIN IN THE 1966 WORLD CUP.BY THEN DUNCAN WOULD HAVE BEEN THIRTY AT THE PEAK OF HIS POWERS.

In my opinion the 3 greatest player's of all time, are British, John Charles, George Best and Duncan Edwards, Edwards being my number one, all greater than Pele in my opinion, many will disagree, but I believe these 3 were something else,so fortunate to have all come from the UK, freakish.

I think duncan is more simmilar to javier zanetti rather than gareth bale.gareth bale right foot accuracy isnt that good. Bale also not good player when play at central areas. he's one of the fastest player in the world, duncan is fast, but I wonder if he's the fastest in the world as well. I think zanetti is more all rounder and duncan is more simmilar to zanetti. so zanetti but good in the air also, is duncan edwards. Maybe mixture between cristiano ronaldo aerial ability with zanetti all round peformance

@MrPeterpiper19697 жыл бұрын
I'm not so sure. I agree Edwards would have been a certainty to play and would have only been 29 in 1966 but I think Moore would still have been the skipper. Edwards was (imo) the greatest English player of all time but for me Moore was the PERFECT Captain and the two things aren't always synonymous. A great player isn't always a great skipper and (purely in my opinion) strikers are not generally a good choice for the armband. I've always felt a central defender or midfielder makes the best skipper because they can see everything and get to every player on the team without getting themselves or their team mate too far out of position.

+vja1970 maybe you can check back some international match around those times. From what I read England was pretty good then, when Duncan was playing. And United was good too, they made it to semi final, if I'm not mistaken or maybe quarter final, in their first European Cup. So maybe Duncan was that good. That being said, I'm a big United fan lol and I'm completely aware of England 'Golden Generation' in every World Cup.

If the English Busby babes players had have lived on imagine how good the England international team would have been Busby babes + 1966 Team + 1970 Team the English Busby babes might have been nearing the end of their Prim by the 1970s but they still would have made an huge impact on the England international team through that period.
