He wasn't the first football superstar...this is nonsense. Was he even famous outside of Ireland/GB/ Europe?

Could listen to Clougjie all day don’t make them like him any more

The best player ever born👍👍👍♥️

European competition was different back then. The best players were not playing every year. Some years the uefa cup was a higher level.

In a world of buzz phrases, tactics, football departments etc, this man and other like Ferguson etc would just laugh if they were managing today.

I love how he emphasises the important words! Could listen to him all day.

The Celtic left-back wasn't called Fleming. Cloughie also needed to get his facts right. In fact Tommy GEMMELL left Celtic to play for none other than Nottingham Forest.,

Now that’s a message for our modern world ,calm down and relax 🤫Relax.

You get your facts right if you're talking to me 🤣

What a lovely man. George you were the best ever rip

Brilliant, honest, from the heart, massively talented as a player and manager, unmissable Cloughie, thank you for posting this gem!

Miss him so much rip 🙏

"Family unit" "Closing ranks" "Got to be in there...." totally love it!!!

Cool guy, very smart guy, and the booze. He said he saw a sign in Canada that said "drink Canada dry" and "that's what I tried to do." Hilarious. Pele had the highest praise for him.

Legend or not, he's clearly pissed - so that's how he 'relaxed'

Brian Clough was so knowledgeable, correcting the interviewer on European football Celtic were the first British team to win the European cup not Manchester united. He didn't suffer fools gladly.

George Best You are a Fantastic Football player You are the Best George Best Good bye the Belfast boy World legend Maradona Cruyff Pele George Best is the Best

And the first man to put the transplant system back years complete bastard

This guy was a big time goal scorer. Great manager. I would have loved to play with him.

Couple of beers in there cloughie lad😂

Good point Cloughie. Not being an integrated unit did not trouble the germans or Italians who did well in europe and the WC and euros.

Greatest player to ever touch a ball. He looks as if hes been on a long binge at this interview. I have seen in alot of interviews and you can tell hes been drinking before the interviews becouse he some how gets round to talking about getting into fights, and he always says with me being irish i dont mind fighting! Wich just isnt true, george has always tried to avoid trouble and fights. Thats just the drink talking. And it didnt do him any favours saying all that, becouse hes been put into hospital a few times. One time in 1981 or 82 a man nearly killed him in a pub when he smashed one of those old heavy beer pint glasses they used to serve with the handle on it. He gave george at least 8 stitches just above his left eye, wich scarred him for life and was plain to see. No wonder george drank so much having to go through life like that, not knowing who is going to attack him just becouse he was famous. I would drink heavily as well, infact most people would or take drugs.

He kept everything simple like an intelligent working class man.No glamour and showbiz bullshit.He spoke straight and what he see in a player and person.Didnt insult just for ego or effect if he told you something you listened cos he is telling a fault in your personality that is short lived unless corrected.When you know about life and being poor and observe peoples characters and what makes people tick your half way there.He had a football genius brain that went with all that which made him a hard man to beat but his sides played the game the right way and never dirty.A solid bloke with a few faults like us all but overall a great down to earth man with a knowledge and spirit to lift people and make them fulfill there true potential

Legend 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

God bless ya Brian

I really didn't expect him to add sex to the list of things that r improved by being relaxed. Turns out Clough was a top shag aswell as a football genius.

Legend.

"Get your fact right" I was about to say the same to you Mr Clough, as the Celtic player who scored the equaliser against Inter in the European cup final of 67 was named Gemmell, not Fleming, whoever he is! 😲😲

Paisley won it twice first, get your facts straight.

Always come back to this video! You can’t do anything to the best of your ability unless you relax. Simple but genius.

Sadly, most of us here in America really knew nothing of this enormously talented athlete. Boy did we miss out !!

Always enjoy listening to Mr Clough very wise man

Never mind the best manager Forest ever had, Derby County ever had, or England never had, the man was one of the best human beings the world's ever had. A lovely, decent and kind man. I'm a Scot, by the way, and I loved Brian Clough.

Great manger RIP

May I just say, there are plenty of 'motivational' posts and films about, mainly done by people who have achieved f*** all. (Why the asterisks for f***'s sake?). But Brian's advice about keeping his players relaxed is, by miles and miles, the best of all. And the tragedy of course is that, in 2021, NOBODY, or nearly nobody, follows it.

Even as a Chelsea fan I would call him my god

Clough don't look well at all... but still with a lot of fire from his mouth.

The Best player ever by a country mile.

Lovely how he unsettles the interviewer at the start by picking him up on his facts. Then at the end gives him great advice on how to improve. Thats why he was such a legendary manager!

I love the fact this video has 179 likes just like George Best scored 179 goals for Man Utd ha 😊

Clough looks well on it there...🥃 Doesn't take away from the legend of a man that he was

nice interview, best advice from clough

“If you’re lucky, you might hear one of the girls snoring”.

Lol get your shit together when you talk to me. 😂👍🏻👍🏻👑

He's drunk! And his narcissism is creeping through which is a shame. Giving the interview a bit of a hard time.

Clough was absolutely right.

Lovely guy and a true Irish man ☘️

I looked up to this man as a kid & I still do at 43! More than a legend 🏟
