George Best Tribute - One of the Greatest Footballers

[@XzGowXz]

Fuck this video is sad. For me he is still the best player to ever touch a football.

[@Kianmur]

For you he may be the best , for me the best player to ever kick a ball was the Brazilian Ronaldo. Look Best was a genius but a flawed one, as so many often are, he could have been the GOAT but he prevented himself from being so

[@atanasdimitrov8016]

george best is the best from liverpool fan !!!

[@marktempleton3731]

All time hero - it all seemed so easy for him but I know he must have spent thousands of hours practicing. As graceful as Cruyff, as balanced as Messi and unbeatable for sheer entertainment. When George was playing both sets of supporters went to see one player. From a Leeds fan.

[@deanof7003]

Chelsea fan for life but I bow down to the greatest player I ever saw live. RIP to a legend.

[@anthonymullen6300]

My old man loved George Best and Matt Busby .I remember watching him crying when they died..... now he's gone.

[@CraigalFun]

I'm with ya mate

[@patrickreynolds7156]

I also cried when he died my football idol was gone

[@alanmctavish4802]

Same here Patrick reynolds. I never thought george best would ever die, he came across as some one who was going to live forever. And the way he looked in his last 2 weeks was just horrific and with photos splatterd over every single page of what he used to like in is peak. It sent a shiver through my whole body! Rip george

[@john2272]

Never was a footballer more aptly named. An absolute genius without equal. Head and shoulders above everyone else. I agree with the choice of music behind this video. I'm 65 years old and this video brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it. I was lucky enough to see him play twice. God bless you George Best.

[@rhysaldo]

An absolute miracle of a player. With the amount he drank, I don't know how it's possible for a human being to be head and shoulders above everyone else. In the 1968 European Cup final, players from both sides were exhausted but Best was still full of energy. He won the game for United. Prime example of how physically fit he was, never mind the skill, balance and sheer class that came from him.

[@Bill-Butcher]

The best player to ever come from Britain and a top 5 all time player if you are talking strictly skills and ability in peak years, had the potential to go down as the greatest in history in my opinion.

[@ahchaibloodcrip]

imagine at his peak and Best wearing the Magista or Hypervenom 2, I dont think any defender would have able to fairly let alone tackle him without vomitting blood.

[@FearsomeVoid]

+johan cruijff When it comes to skills and pure talent he was the best player that was ever born in Great Britain, could have been one of the best

[@FearsomeVoid]

He was from Ireland not Britain

[@Hugh_Morris]

The greatest footballer to ever grace the pitch.

[@nixxxon18]

+George Havenhand just because his name is "best" it doesnt mean you have to go so far.

[@BenTheVideoGamer]

Messi is the greatest footballer to ever grace a football pitch.

[@CrownlessRaven]

@@nixxxon18 who said that he said that he is the Greatest because his name is “Best”. He said he was the Greatest as a player which I agree

[@nixxxon18]

@@CrownlessRaven Messi, Maradona, Pele, Ronaldo Nazario, Cruyff...

[@CrownlessRaven]

@@nixxxon18 I think George is better than Messi because the pitch back then rigs your movement and can hinder your balance and despite all of that George can beat 4 players alone plus, the ball was way heavier and gives it harder to control. The tackles were pretty immense back in the day as you would rarely get yellow card even if you cut someone’s legs off but George still took on. If George played in today’s pitch with HyperVenom. He would destroy any defender. Now Ronaldo, he became the World’s best for 3 years but then something tragic happened and he wasn’t as good as before, the same goes for George Best. He was the greatest footballer in the world for 3 years but his alcoholism injured his career and wasn’t as good as before. Compare their play styles, Ronaldo was a prodigious goal scorer while George was an artist. Johan Cruyff gets an edge over George for being a complete midfielder and a playmaker but I still think George was better because of his unorthodox play style. Pele humbled himself and regarded George best as the Greatest football ever and the best footballer he played with Maradona was influenced by his childhood hero who is George Best

[@jalanthos8646]

George best is one of the greatest players to ever step foot on a football field!

[@jackiebaron6368]

I saw George Best play when I was 6. I thought I was looking at a ghost with a ball dancing. Only once I saw him play.

[@TheDarkZorua]

wow must have been amazing to watch him play

[@cutehoors173]

I'm 52yrs young he was my hero on the pitch to this day i think he was the best player ever R.I.P

[@jackdelaney4082]

Greatest player of all time.From Chile

[@maxcady6915]

The first time i watched this video was about 9 years ago. The song was Ordinary World - Duran Duran

[@kryzhan]

Brilliant player. Addicted to this video of Best. First real fut-ball star that transcended the game as a star. The women loved him. All of Europe loved him and he paved the way for many of the star players to follow as icons. He never really recovered from his mother committing suicide back in Ireland. Drink was his balm.

[@kryzhan]

+ Marc Kryzhan -- Still probably my favorite soccer video just because contextually it registers a lot with me, ultimately its a sad video, a sad story of absolute wonderful brilliance and the very human struggle to find happiness. Best was one of top 10 football players of all time and just brilliant coming up at a very young age, 18, to play professionally in England. He was 'discovered' in Ireland and for him it was making the lonely and long trek from Ireland to his new home that eventually had him struggle with balancing his brilliance and the pain of life. Read up on his life story to get a better grasp of the loneliness he felt moving to a new country, the strangeness of becoming so popular at a young age and then how it created that continuous search for happiness (my take on it) that eventually hurt him. At the age of 18 he was really the first to popularize what it meant to be a true soccer star in Europe. Before that they weren't celebrities like he became. He was the first true soccer star celebrity in Europe historically. And he was just mesmerizing the soccer world at that time. A vulnerable and naive kid that at such a young age was wowing the professionals of the time. His mother's suicide was the thorn that killed his naivety.

[@stpepper82]

Pure class! As a liverpool fan through and through till i die. My god what a player and gift this man had! i wasnt alive to witness his greatness, but not many a player has come through like george did, a few have but he was a different league. Just think how much he would be worth in todays market!!!! A legend. In the top 3 of all time!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Daratsian]

1:47 .Nowadays 99 out of 100 players would fall , asking for a foul as soon the defender touched them.What a great player !

[@TheBlackJack67]

We need another George Best now

[@laussethecat]

Messi

[@erth_mu]

TyDoesGaming yea very similar , only thing is messi is not two footed and sumtimes he falls down way to easily , esp around the box like most barca players do , only thing which puts me off cos he's an amazing talent too.

[@laussethecat]

well there is no one that comes close that plays now

i am from the irish republic george best was the greatest footballer of his generation he was the best footballer from both sides of the irish island as a far as i am concered his footballing talent inspired to put aside both relgions in northern ireland and also put aside diffences between northern ireland and the irish republic hes simply the best i have huge huge respect for him such a shame he died from alcohol hope paul mccgratha dosent follow in george bests footsteps hes a great to

[@0secure12]

Anyone who can withstand a sliding tackle from Chopper Harris, stay on his feet and go on to score is a true great.

[@javiergonzalezfornos1304]

0secure 1 Imagine him today, not in need of evading THESE tackles, playing in perfect pitches and with a lighter ball. He would score 50 goals a season.

[@MultiMcgurk]

0secure 1 yes chopper Harris said that he was best player he faced and was a nightmare as use too swear and wind him up as he went round him . Great player

[@Ali74]

3:46...the defender tries to break him in half. The way he rides tackles like that, the balance, that's what set him apart. The word genius is reserved for players born with something different, and he was different.

[@alanmctavish4802]

Ali74 thats true. Every time i watch that goal it sends a shiver down ma back. Its got to be one of the greatest goals ever, when you thinck of the pitches back then and the brutal tackling, and that park was really soaking wet that night and george still didnt go down to then take it round peter bonneti who was no fool. Ron chopper harris said "if a had cought him full on a wouldv got 3 month in jail for that, but george rode the tackle and scored, it used to be on at the start of grandstand for a few years that goal and every time i watched it a always thought i will get him this week lol"

[@markmcdowell1649]

I wish I had of been born to see him play

[@brownalfie]

Same

[@SUIRAM17]

That what people gonna say in future i wish i had to be born to see C.Ronaldo ,Robben,Messi play so football is mutch better now because is more balanced devenders are better and Gk are so good in the past a lot of Gk was bad!

[@kevsmith3630]

Marius Soaita Every single generation thinks the way you do. Best played in the era of Franz Beckenbauer and Bobby Moore, two of the greatest defenders the world has ever seen. Also the era of Lev Yashin and Gordon Banks, two of the greatest goalkeepers the world has ever seen. And he didn't have the same protection from violent tackles that todays players have. There were a lot of bad goalkeeper and defenders in the past but there are also a lot of bad defenders and goalkeepers today! And you will no doubt be having the same argument 15 years down the line with some kid who thinks Messi, C Ronaldo and Robben wouldn't cut it in what will then be the modern era.

[@ringlora2]

kev smith You are right. I watched full games of Moore in England vs Brazil matches, and he had Pele in his pocket for a whole 90 mins. From what I could tell, no defender today is as good as Moore, he was slow, but very very good at marking and tackling. And people seem to think Pele scored in every game, that is not the case. Best was similar to Messi in many ways, he would pass, and on occasion, do what you see in the video. He would only do it in spells, as the manager and players would tell him off. It is this type of video that people judge players ability on, and it is wrong to do so, as this is just the best moments from most of a players career. You have to watch more than a few games of them playing to judge better.

[@venkatnori8274]

What a great legend !!! They don't produce legends like this anymore😭😭

[@nickasbne]

such a well put together tribute video. watched it many times over the years, often to motivate me before playing myself! only heard about george from my dad but these clips are such a good glimpse to his football ability. instinct, skills, balance, bravery, artistry... had it all. whatever way a defender came at him he'd come up with a solution, changing his own mind and finding a way around. no other player like him..so sad to look back now on the anniversary of his death

"Mesmerizing." Absolutely. You took the word right out of my mouth.

[@xXIamMcLovin29Xx]

Would like to see today's "stars" stand up to tackling like that! Proper football, proper legend!

[@alexandrepato5799]

Beautiful... He is in the top 5 ever for me...

[@rjlplondon]

When you are so far ahead of what's around you that they barely know what you're doing then is genius. Of course.

[@andrewsmylie2205]

Would love to see Messi try and play with that ball, those boots, on that pitch, taking the kind of tackles Best had to take without the protection of the referee sending off anyone who touches him. Best in the conditions these days would score about 70 goals a season for club alone. Unluckily for him, he came from Northern Ireland (my country) where major success was just qualifying for major tournaments and is now just winning a match.

[@supersaiyangoku128]

Fact that he's from the same country as you already indicates bias. Looking at this, I can tell George Best was certainly a great player. In fact his play looks incredibly similar to Messi in the way he feints a lot and it catches a lot of players out. However, the fact that conditions have changed and such doesn't mean one player is better than the other. If that was the case some could argue that the quality of players (particularly defenders) have become a lot better than what they have been. And Messi has taken quite a lot of those dirty tackles. Quite a while back, he used to get hammered by them, hence why he usually walks around the pitch until the ball comes within proximity of him.

[@iNZSPIRED]

Viciouz What do you mean conditions changing means one player isnt better than another? Of course it fucking does, If I can swim through treacle faster than Rebecca Adlington can swim through water then I am a better swimmer than her.

[@supersaiyangoku128]

Having a heavier ball doesn't necessarily mean it's harder to control the ball. In fact, for some people it may be the case that a heavier or lighter ball is easier to control or vice-versa. Using that swimming analogy wouldn't be accurate as swimming through treacle would be harder for everyone. Using a heavy/small ball would differ for different people. And I checked over Messi's videos again - I'm sure he's the better player. Especially when people like Pelé think so too.

[@Dreamsareforreal]

George Best had the ability to become the best!! He got drunk a lot he could of not done that today. I like this era than todays, football today is CRAP. example rules have changed like the offside rule, people not going in for slide tackles as much because seen as dangerous ahahah!! Football is capitalist today!!

[@supersaiyangoku128]

Well, I've seen a couple bad injuries so I reckon its best for the safer option, I'm sure sliding doesn't make that much of an effect in how dangerous people go in for the tackle.

[@danty362]

the most naturally gifted footballer ever. But, as is often the case, this natural talent was never seen.

[@TheMartinfoley]

Thumbs up if your watching in 2012 and still believe he was the greatest ever!

[@Cazanator6000]

Him and Ronaldo were easily the most talented players to ever put on the red shirt

[@best349]

+Caldor3 wise up Best was a genius the minute he put on the shirt & he was 17, Ronaldo took years & nutritionists, personal trainers etc & took him years to mature & took on a forward role BEST was a winger as Ferguson said "he never got handed any goals like a forward he had to beat players 2 score"

[@best349]

+Caldor3 get a life u fanboy he was shit 4 3 bloody years

[@best349]

yeah right assists free kicks & penalites = talent

[@BelgianWarriorGaming]

+Oscar Cartabon Clearly you guys critizicing Ronaldo don't know anything about football. Attacking is way harder nowadays than it used to be. First of all, there was a bigger skill difference between big teams and other teams.Secondly, nowadays' football is way more about athletisicm. And last but not the least, tactics evolved and defenders don't run around like fools (e.g. this video). Anyways, Ronaldo can't be compared to Best because they simply don't match. Best = skills, dribbling like Messi. Ronaldo = Athleticism & pace

[@best349]

He was like messi but better only kids brought up before playstations have this ability now all the greats would play 24/7 growing up because there was only basic cartridge consoles and small tvs, no1 had internet and the only mobiles were bricks, kids now play a little and then go on facebook or console games only those who where there before or when mega drives were around are the last capable of this ability like messi and ronaldo if your born from 92 and upwards you will never surpass the generations b4 u because they have hunger initiative and awareness that seems to have been bred out of you

[@morr8387]

Maybe it is the music selection, and I swear I have not been drinking, but this video makes me cry. What he could do w/the football at his feet was the most beautiful art. Such grace and the ability to turn on a dime. And look at the hits he took and never went down. Nothing like today, they would be rolling as if they had been shot. I'll bet there is many an Englishman who long for the excitement of the day when they knew they were going to watch George Best at work, 90 minutes of heaven.

[@Lymbe06]

You’re a moron. Diving for a penalty like Suárez does regularly and falling down from tackles are two entirely different things. True, Messi does manage to keep dribbling but that has to do with different body types as well. He is way way shorter than Cristiano thus lower center of gravity. Also Ronaldo runs faster (or used to in his winger days) which made him less agile and more prone to hits that threw him off his pace. I agree that Best managed to shake off worse defender physical contact and still managed to keep going but if he wouldn’t, he would not even get the foul, it simply was that kind of era.

[@craney91]

A truly GREAT footballer. He had that spice and bottle to turn it on and be a showman on the football pitch, but also matched it with strength and desire, he simply didn't go over easy like we see from the cheats today, he never gave up with the ball at his feet, and played the game purely as it was meant to be played, hard, but first and foremost, as a sport played by sportsmen, he played the game, and boy, could he f*cking play it! - From a die-hard Liverpool fan.

Whatever his faults as a man and we all have them. Look at that acceleration, tight ball control, balance, strength and all whilst being hacked to death in which modern players would now go down holding their face. Best is more in the Messi, maradona mode. I don't think i rate ronaldo so much- very effective with speed and power of which he is more reliant on.

Pero George Best no fue ningún "pollo" del franquismo y del franquista Real Madrid. Supo amar su camiseta y serle fiel a diferencia del "pollo" Di Stefano que fue contratado primero por el Barcelona y terminó cediendo a las ofertas monetarias del franquismo que se ahllaba detrás del Real Madrid. Mira el documental de History Channel sobre "Fútbol y Fascismo"

[@alfredodistefanolaulhe2212]

Roberto Rosendo Molina Castillo Di Stéfano no fue contratado por el Barcelona, estuvo a prueba y al final fue contratado por el Madrid porque nació para jugar en el Madrid, al igual que Neymar fue contratado por el Barcelona, eso sí, con algunos chanchullos mafiosos de por medio. Yo no tengo que mirar ningún documental, yo soy del Real Madrid, y si el franquismo ayudó al Madrid, pues me alegro mucho, eso es lo que deberían hacer todos los gobiernos, ayudar al Madrid, y perjudicar al Barcelona, pero no solo el franquismo, sino todos los gobiernos de España.

George Best was probably the most graceful footballer ever. His sytle was unique, like he was flying over the field. He beat the defenders so easy and clean, seems like he could read their minds. Despite he was mostly used as a winger, he was a top scoarer, unbeatable in one on one, he could orient the game and combine as well as break the defense lines by himself. A true artist. Too bad he was born Irish, he never had the chance to play a world cup.

+Laurent Peigneux thanks for the Information. I will definitely watch it. Have a nice day, too.

[@SilentDemiseXII]

this man set the bar and nobody has matched it

[@andrewodell6521]

In one of his last Interviews he said that when people think of him they'll just say about the Alcohol but he would never forget that Pele said he was the Greatest Player he had ever seen

[@Lorieellesh]

What a pretty song...never heard it before. Who sings it does anyone know?

[@leosahlen]

It's a band called Evanescence. Song name is My Immortal.

[@hotdog4d617]

Maradona good PELE better George BEST

[@TenshinhanIsKing]

Cruyff shits on all of them

[@TenshinhanIsKing]

***** because Cruyff is better than those overrated players GTFO

[@karkang]

@@TenshinhanIsKing George got asked if he thought Cruyff was better than him before Northern Ireland faced Holland. Better than me? I’ll Nutmeg him the first chance I get. And so he did.

[@TheInbetweener123]

Greatest european footballer of all time, as the 25th of November approaches, we will remember all the great moments you had on the pitch and how much pride you brought and still bring to our wee country of Northern Ireland. R.I.P George, always the best.

[@splinter360]

Havnt watch this vid in a long time, but just as blown away as ever. For me the greatest of all time.To do what he done in this time, on those football pitches, and with leg breaking tackles more or less being the norm. He truly was the best. Not to mention he wasn't exactly the healthiest guy, so its safe to assume he didn't hit the heights he should have.

[@salimessaid4285]

The better version of messi

[@Ali74]

And the surface he was doing all this on was terrible. Imagine what he'd do nowadays with the perfect field conditions modern players have...add in the proper diet, fitness and too class surgery (Best had botched surgery on his knee that left him unable to move freely for the last three or four years (from 23 to 27). It's a major reason he retired so young. His best days were between the ages of 17 to 22...1968 was the end of his peak. Botched knee surgery, as well as alcoholism, declining fitness etc meant he wasnt what he was. Harry Gregg told me all this. In peak condition you could not put a price on him.

[@best349]

+Ali74 he did have bad surgery check out George Best's body on youtube but he carried United for another 4yrs & in the end he could barely walk

[@AliC_313]

Best footballer in history. No questions asked.

[@chukcle12]

Brilliant tribute to one of the best to ever play the game. If booze hadn't effected his career he would have been the best ever.

[@MathewBall]

[@swagbucks6578]

Eusebio

[@emilio2812]

Please take CR7 out of this list and no Messi? Ooooookay buddy lol.

[@MathewBall]

Emilio Bustamante Why would I take the best player in the world and one of the greatest of all time C.Ronaldo off of my list. if C.Ronaldo isn't on this list why would I put Messi on my list? C.Ronaldo is a better player than Messi.

[@emilio2812]

HAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAHAHA ^^

[@cupcake115288]

Mathew Ball CR7 is not better than Messi he has stats goals and records to proove it Messi should be higher on that list than CR7 and thats a fact.

[@srrp4pking909]

Messi is not the new George!! Lets see how messi would cope with the tackles George best got during his career! Not very well at all me thinks

[@robdee1]

you can´t compare the level with today.

[@StewartEvans52]

exactly rob,back then it was a mans game,not played to earn stupid amounts of cash,but played for the love of the game,pitches were shit,not like the game today where they are all pretty much pristine pitches,lets not forget the tackles too from back then,insane how ppl even try and justify messi being in the same tier as george

[@Pmon200]

How caan anyone not see that he is truly one of the top 3 wingers of all time after seeing the vid?Truly the best!

[@abdllhccc]

Still the BEST! RIP Legend. Greetings from Turkey.

[@saintclaire2008]

George Best deserves all honors. Garrincha was also one of the world's best soccer players and Brazil as well.

[@garychapman201128]

the best ever first I saw this man play was in 1970 I was 12 years old he was out of this world pure magic

[@ukgolfa]

Brian Glanville said it best: "Men are we, and must mourn , even when the shade of that which was great has passed.." Peace.

[@JamablobikDuffman007]

The best footballer in the history of mankind, ha was just stunning...... thanks 4 puttin that vid there

[@PDHulme61]

Yes greatest player ive ever seen in the last 50 years ..Legend ! ***** thanx for uploading my friend...

[@joshuk93]

the fact he did this, usually hungover, on those pitches, when tackling was 10 times more rough and with those balls and boots - different breed of player to today.

[@Josedinho_-]

Most amazing tribute ever, song choice was perfect!

[@cillianranngarsson2762]

Thankfully I am 4 days into recovery from alcoholism I feel a bit sick but I know in the long run it will be worth it because the doctor told me one more drink and I be dead
