Denis Law on winning the Ballon d'Or

[@terrymelia7959]

As a 64 year old Liverpool fan,I had the footballing honour of seeing Denis Law, Bobby Charlton and George Best at Anfield.

[@StephenPritchard-f9j]

i was at anfield in 1969 and we won 4-1 the holy trinity played that day and it was 36 years before another team scored 4 there what a memory 3 ballon dor players in the side few players whereas good as the lawman dribbling shooting both feet fantastic heading ability 18 hatricks on pitches like that and me my dad and friend parked up and walked through the park paid at the stand at the side near the kop im 68 now and that performance today was an insult to his memory i walked out in disgust when the 3rd went in my father went to anfield a lot in the sixties and said the kop where the most knowlegable fans and appreciated skill when they saw it and the great Bill shankley who managed him at huddersfield he could walk on water and the liverpool board at the time couldnt afford the fee wich he was annoyed about and a lovely story was when liverpool got to the cup final in 1965 he lent is liverpool supporter friend is mk 2 jag so they could go in style to wembley and win the cup for the first time against leeds the club is sadly a mess now britains richest man has seen to we are just customers now seats to anyone who will pay the price thousands of half and half scarves for sale near the memorial the game has been ruined by money men and sheiks i will probably walk away now if it becomes 66 pounds a game sad state of affairs all the best ❤

[@MrConstantin-p4v]

Always a gentleman and very humble , the world lost a diamond R.I.P. Great Dennis Law.

[@mattcolley358]

I got huge respect for someone who has talent but isn't big headed with it. RIP DENIS🙏

[@neilcrowesongs9768]

Pays tribute to his own heroes rather than boasting about himself. Class act

[@billybigtime2808]

So sad to lose both of these men and there Generation of footballers who have passed. RIP Denis Law

[@alanhardaker6101]

What a player and what a genuine human being.RIP Denis from a 74 year old LFC fan. So proud to have seen you play.

[@invernessfan3017]

I am proud that Law was Scottish. He was one of the greatest football players ever from Scotland.

[@Inglese001]

Such a great ambassador. He should have been knighted.

[@ianwalker3309]

One of the best players who ever played the game end of.

[@joekavanagh7171]

Only one of? He was the greatest.

[@tt99football56]

A true great of the game & one of the biggest characters that's been in football.

[@a_guinness]

He was my Dad's favourite along with the other King of the '60s ( Pelé ). To think that United fans nicknamed him ' The King ' over the likes of Charlton and Best, shows firstly how great a player he was but also how much he was loved. I still regard him as the best Scottish player of all time, with respect to King Kenny!

[@tt99football56]

@a_guinness It really does show that, he must have stood out even against players like Best & Charlton.

[@OneEyedDronie]

May 1st 1971 Blackpool play Man Utd in the league, Jimmy Armfields last ever game for Blackpool - my first ever live football match. My Liverpool supporting dad had taken me to watch 'one of the best ever footballers' play his last game... he had some how forgotten about the Trinity and when we got home I told him, 'I can no longer support your team dad.. sorry.. I've just seen the best three footballers ever, Best, Law and Charlton.. I'm now a Man Utd fan'! I was Seven at the time. The Trinity are now back together, RIP gentlemen, you gave so many people so many amazing memories!

[@RodneyBrook-xz6tc]

Rest in eternal peace forever Dennis law and Graham Taylor 🙏🏻🙏🏻😔😔

[@sphughes01]

Love this guy. Denis Law a God amongst footballers. Huddersfield Town ‘discovered’ him, developed him paid for surgery to sort out his squint and then sold him for a record fee which paid for the floodlights. They blew down in the wind next season while Denis went on to be an absolute superstar. Yet he never forgot his roots in Aberdeen or the club that discovered’ him coming back in the early twenty-first century to aid the campaign when they were bust. Great, great man!

[@PeterOHalloran-hf2ho]

A Great man on and of the pitch ❤

[@JI7NKJ]

You actually could not get any better than that in world football, what a life the man had and what memories for us lovers of football. RIP Denis Law.

[@deanashton9041]

Legend deserved to be up there with them , deserved the ballon dor scored 46 goals in one season ! 🔥

[@gordonmculloch4904]

And you too Denis, are up there with the all-time greats. 👍

[@jimso771]

Always humble, a true World great indeed.❤️

[@jameshill8711]

Bless you Dennis, may you rest in peace.

[@jimmysmith07]

great human being as well as a great player

[@lisabradley9288]

You might have left us but you will be greatly missed Denis! Thank you for everything you have done for our great club. You our great Busby Babe will live on in our hearts always. Forever the King of the Stretford End ⚽🖤❤️🏆

[@John-vw3lr]

RIP Denis from a Celtic fan.

[@patiacat1]

Recently went to the Old Trafford Museum, there is a display with 3 shirts. Law, Best,Charlton. All won this prestigious award, all in the same era and all on the same team. Wow!!. RIP Law Man. ❤

[@sitabhattarai6378]

RIP LEGEND

[@PenhamedPelah]

R.I.P

[@tsukai1276]

Rest in peace king! My num.1 CF in every football video game! King of games at 24...my man, you deserve respect big time.

[@carefreescot]

He was quite right though, much as we loved him here as a national hero (not my favourite person at team level obviously), who would have guessed he would be chosen over Puskas, Eusabio, Di Stefano etc, names even us British schoolboys knew and hero worshipped, as if they were gods from another galaxy.

[@tonymarshall4164]

A wonderful player…I first saw him play live in 1964, against Arsenal at Highbury..United won 3-2 and Denis scored two that day….he has been my idol ever since.

[@jimmclean7938]

True true legend

[@BharKishChats]

RiP great man!

[@aaronchisholm1267]

One of Scotland's greats, what a personality.

[@MichEl-z4n]

A God Of Football ❤ 😢

[@joekavanagh7171]

It wasn't called the Ballon d'Or then. It was the European Footballer Of the Year.

[@numbnutz7832]

Wasn’t called champions league then either or finish fourth or fifth foe the European cup. 😂

[@PressureOnJulian]

It has always been called the Ballon d’Or. It was created by France Football magazine in the 1950s and that is what they named it. English language media chose not to refer to it that way

[@scottm4476]

So modest ❤

[@minifuzz5]

Denis Law.The King!RIP

[@Slademanxx]

He mentioned that forward line, WOW, but most of us who can remember will never forget United's forward line of Law, Best and Charlton, along with Kidd, what a line up that was.

And Scotland

MANCHESTER IS RED

[@jonathanwilkinson1461]

The warm tingle you get as a Great talks about other Greats you'll not get in the near future as you discuss the cheating whingers of today, which is a crying shame. It used to be a wonderful game, R.I.P Denis..

[@olliesmith2890]

Shame on Man United for that abysmal display, on the same day Old Trafford celebrated a true Old Trafford legend's passing. The United of today, are not fit to wear the jersey, but Mr Law certainly deserved to wear it.

[@FoobsTon]

All that useless blurb attached to the video but no date on the interview. 🙄

[@DeiNahts-y5v]

[@AIJimmybad]

Inter were European champs that year.
