I've had a lot of time on my hands this Christmas and I must have watched this glorious sequence of yours 20 times now. It's so wonderful. In all my watching football for over 50 years no one has surely scored such a staggering amount of spectacular goals. Rare to find bobby over doing the celebrations. Once or twice, he can't help himself and does indulges himself, when it was a real cracker jack. Starting off with the Mexico goal was a superb choice I feel. His best for me personally. It's a great edit all round. Can't wipe the smile off my face in the first 30 seconds. Absollutely brilliant.

[@stevelee4952]

If we all live to be 200 we will never see a better English player. The horrible pitches, heavy balls and boots made of thick leather, yet this genius looked like a ballet dancer with the shot of a bazooka. God bless Bobby and long will his memory remain with us

The complete attacking player. Passing from anywhere, scoring from anywhere. A true great for all time.

[@765ketyjo]

As a teenager in the mid 60s Manchester United's trio of law 😁, Charlton and best were making headlines every week with their brand of effortlessly, swashbuckling football. People flocked to see them when they were in town.It was football of a different kind. Either law's amazing goal poaching, George Bests dazzling dribbling balance, and finishing or Bobbie's spectacular shooting.You couldn't go wrong watching them. On Bobby in particular though. He had real acceleration and pace, he used to glide past players with ease.And, such a rare skill he had a tremendous shot with either foot. That's a rarity,in fact I can't recall another player who had that amazing ability. He was always superbly fit. And,he'd have easily played in the modern game . The México goal from 30 yards out was my particular favourite. I was watching it live and Kenneth Woldtenholmes wonderful commentary sticks in my mind. Charlton might try one!!!!!? A beauty!!!!! Magical.

[@russhouldin5774]

Thank you for this post which only scratches the surface. I was lucky that my dad, a Utd fan from the late 40s, took me to see him and I must have seen close to 100 games live. His passing was incredible. He would curve the pass so it could be gathered by the recipient using the inside or outside of the left or right foot. He hit balls over the line of the defence like wedge shots, with back spin. If you look closely at the clips you'll see this. He could hold the ball indefinitely. Much is made nowadays of the press. Charlton killed the press. I've seen him shake of posses of challengers, swerving this way and that before turning and hitting a killer pass with them all out of position. Not the sort of thing that made highlights but were bread and butter. He was so fast but his elegance disguised this. All of this on pitches that were often muddy.

[@russhouldin5774]

Forgot to thank you for the selection of corner kicks. This is another thing you cant see on film, the way he curled them either away or inswing. Which reminds me that with the light balls now used it would be a struggle to contain Charlton to a goal a game. The "goto" shot now is the one that imparts hook overspin with the inside of the foot. In Charlton;s day no-one could get enough speed to beat pro keepers from 18 yards. Finally, he never got injured seriously. His balance was incredible. I once saw him tripped, he did a forward roll and carried on but the ref had already blown.

Robert h, law and charlton were great. But they couldnt score goals or had the ability that george best had. Best could chip a ball on an ice frozen park over a keeper with any foot. Plus best could control a high ball then lob the keeper with it touching the ground with any foot. It has to be inch perfect and the weight of the shot you put on the ball. Thats the hardest goal ever to score. Becouse the ball doesnt touch the ground once between player to player for best to control it then let it drop onto his foot and lob pat jeninngs, the famous lob in 1971 we see alot that best did againts spurs. Barry davies called it "beautiful absolutly beautiful and one of the gems of the season" and it was. Law and charlton couldnt have done that. They wouldnt have thought about doing it let alone being able to do it. Thats only a george best special that one. The wee treets george used to give us was just amazing that only he could do.

Adorning players with purple, yellow, green, red, blue, pink, white, and all sorts of colours, their multi colored boots fail to provide uniformity of view and are disturbing to view. These frolicsome multi coloured boots have no place in a serious game of football. Another side effect is that when players use boots of any other tone than black, they appear to be floating on the turf, as though they are above it. Again, this is not right.
