The best efforts of Norman (Break Your Legs) Hunter, Ron (Chopper) Harris or Tommy Smith could not stop him. I once had the great privilege to spend an evening in the company of George & his wife Alex. A truly humble man who was a genius with a ball at his feet.

[@choppy249]

He was the best player in the world then , playing on awful heavy ,quagmire like pitches , wearing great clog like football boots that were cumbersome and uncomfortable and trying to play with a ball that was ridiculously hard and heavy and almost impossible to spin and swerve. And on top of that he had almost no protection from referees , he was kicked and fouled constantly and play was allowed to go on. Imagine him today playing on beautiful , sleek perfect , flat football pitches , wearing light , comfortable state of the art football boots , playing with a football that is incredibly light and responsive to the touch and being given protection from the referee so that players are not allowed to just hack into him anymore. He would be totally unplayable and a dream to watch. Defenders wouldn't have a clue how to handle him . He would be priceless.

[@king.k284]

Titty Milk I get what you’re saying, but I think with the same tools that today’s players had growing up, best would have still been one of the greats. To become a legend, you need to be mentally special, not just physically special. Best had so much self-belief and confidence. I think those traits would have taken him to the top even today.

[@rnstoo1]

Bit of an exaggeration. I played on those pitches and wore the boots. They were not "quagmires" nor did we wear "clogs" and the balls were not too bad either. There was a actually a " George Best " side laced boot ( not a success) but it was a pretty light weight slimline piece of kit. I don't know where these ideas came from that the 60's pitches were like "farmers fields" but its entirely mistaken. Maybe not quite up to today's standards but not THAT bad.

[@jeffreyadams648]

If you watch this a few times you realise how his thinking was so far ahead of his teammates.

[@HarmsFootball]

Definitely. There are some interviews of his teammates where they say how difficult it was to adjust to him at first - you had to understand, for example, that you could (and should) make a run even if he was currently turned away from you and seemingly couldn't see you or make a pass to you. Because he could and he would. His vision and ability to make a creative pass was just fantastic, even though he had never fully recovered after his imprisonment.

[@jeffreyadams648]

I saw him two times live.....my first ever match at Tottenham where he seemed to have more time than anyone else on the ball and when United were a pretty ruthless machine; then at the end at Fulham where he was embarrassingly better than anyone.

[@johnpacino007]

He was a top player for a short while. From 1967 to 1972. Way too short to rank amongst the top six, to seven players of all time who did for over ten to 15 fifteen years. The ball control & skills of the greatest South American players like Pelé, Di Stefano, Maradona, Ronaldo (Brazil), Messi, I'd rank over him & Cruyff was the best player, Europe ever produced. Add in the brilliant CR7 & his longevity to do it at the highest level for over twelve years & you've got. The top seven players, the game as seen.

George's lack of control and wasted passing (against Europe's best) as evident on this video would probably cost him a regular place in todays top teams. But, as well as his close incredible ball control he could head a ball as well as anyone, he could , and would tackle and his work rate was superb. So he was the complete football player.

[@JulioLeonFandinho]

The "wasted passing" wasn't Best fault, it was the much more vertical style of playing that caused it... coaches back then weren't obsessed by control and players were allowed to make their own decissions. I've seen recently the legendary argentinian coach Cesar Luis Menotti answering the question about intelligence of today's players, and he responded disapointed with the lack of good decisions and initiative of modern players. Out of coaches commands they got lose. That's why they make less mistakes. They just obey orders. And that's why players like Best are so rare nowadays An then pitches... even the 3rd division pitch where my town's team plays nowadays is at least equally good as the best pitches back then. The leather ball and the boots made everything less accurate too

It's likely impossible for you to recognize flaws that rock your narrow perspective. An honest conversation with you is clearly not possible. As I stated George Best was an awesome attacking player with rarely matched skills who ploughed through tackles that would destroy many of today's contemporaries (aka. Neymar!) BUT none of that dismisses the reality that he WAS a shit defender both then and certainly by today's demands of attacking midfielders. He was suckered into the very same moves he humiliated defenders with. He was easy enough to beat if 'you' had the ball on the run, but give him the ball and you're fucked! A better, brilliant defensive-capable example of another world-class United attacking midfielder is the one and only Paul Scholes. Scholes was a dream machine and likely one of the most underrated players ever... in the world. Scholes was sublime skill, uncanny distribution, dribbling balls into the net and whacking vollies from 25 yards, game smarts, dogged determination, unlikely to pull a 'Neymar' and if you by chance had the ball Scholes would have you both. He attacked like George Best and he defended like Roy Keene. I absolutely cannot say about Scholes that he was a shit defender. Rooney had it... once... for a brief beautiful moment. He could attack and distribute like Best and Scholes and defend like Scholes and Keene, and he was our English bulldog riding tackles, getting hit, getting up and getting the ball between the posts from 3 yards or 30. Rooney could have been better than Best as an anywhere on the park player but again... he gave us magic briefly then lost his way and his game despite breaking United records. Nuances Mr. Moore, nuances. And a little honesty and a little less outrage go a long way. Call me out, call me wrong but do it by actually making a case after first reading what I actually write. ps.

Joseph Aguilar . That's just silly. Not all the best players at the time wanted to leave their first clubs. It was not like it is today where most players are just money grabbing machines. Take a look at Bobby Moore from the same period . He is arguably the greatest defender who ever lived ( Pele thought he was ) and Bobby stayed at Westham his whole effective career until he was too old to play for them anymore. He could have gone to any club in the world at his peak but he didn't want to .Also another point to ponder which not many people know about is that Juventus once offered 4 times the world record transfer fee for Westhams Geoff Hurst , and Westham practically just laughed at the offer as they knew he was irreplaceable. Can you imagine what players like Bobby Moore, Bobby Charlton and George Best himself would have been worth ? Plus don't forget that Manchester United won the European Cup with George and were arguably for a time the best and most famous club in the World. So why would he want to leave ? Also he loved the life in nearby London, England as at that time it was the only place to be. The swinging sixties and all that. Plus George was never a greedy man , not like today's so called superstars .
