True legendary player. Superbly accurate with both legs, the heart of a lion. And the unpredictability of a madman. What he did, while being hacked down all over the muddy park... Will live forever. R.I.P. Georgie
How would he fend off 80's like Graeme Sounnes?! Not Messi or Neymar or any could put up with him....
@@NihilIslands He only had to make one defender look foolish and others would back off.
@@NihilIslands At his best he fearlessly ran rings round Smith, Harris, Hunter - the lot of them.
He was a brilliant, tough, fearless tackler too - I'd have been more concerned about Souness than him over a 50-50 ball!
He never missed a penalty in his career neither Ronaldo nor Messi could match that
There were some hard sliding tackles coming in at him, as well as plenty of other strong physical attempts to stop him. No comparison to these days where at the least touch, the player goes down and you'd think they were maimed. Not to mention having to control the ball on pitches as churned up as a building site. Yet Best still moved balletically, and was strong in shrugging off whatever they threw at him. His talent was astonishing. Still is.
Not only that but the ball itself was of much lesser quality than a modern ball, and far heavier, as were the boots they wore. If he played today he would walk all over everyone.
He did absolutely everything he wanted with the ball at his feet. Genius!
And this was back when a football weighed about the same as a forklift.
He was Cruyff, before Cruyff .He was Messi, before Messi
@@albertsaldana5084 Cruyff was born in 1947 , George best was born in 1945 almost the same age so they are from the same era
Io penso : "BEST = RONALDINHO" ...... TOP 💪 TOP 💪TOP ..... ECCELLENZA ASSOLUTA 😎🇮🇹 ROMA
Daniel ....forse BEST ,,, se possibile " ......ANCORA PIÙ FORTE 🧐🤔🤔....😱😱😱😱...😜😜😜😜😘😘.... ALWAYS ROME 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🏆🏆🏆🏆++++ 🏆🏆
Most aesthetically pleasing dribbling I have ever seen. His running with ball is like paintbrush movement on canvas, inexplicably smooth.
Excellently described.
Genius.
Great choice of words
Cringe
12 times better than the lab rat aka messi
PELE IS BETTER
My husband got to see him play against Chelsea at the bridge and to this day say's he was magical probably the best player he has ever seen.
Good to hear
Your husband is right.
Very lucky
@@soumalyabairagi8551 yes soumalya he is a Chelsea supporter and said George picked the ball up just outside his own penalty box ran the whole pitch beating six Chelsea players and scored an incredible goal,Bonnetti stod no chance,a genius for sure.
Let s Dance
He was like quicksilver. There will never be another George Best. I was lucky enough to see him from the beginning.
A rare and absolute talent that you don’t see so often. He made that dribbling look so easy. Just insane.
Great ball geniuses who died because of alcohol and drugs
maradona
Cruyff
Socrates
Garrincha
George best

@@wilsonsousa3391 Cruyff died of cancer you absolute whopper.
He lived his best life tho. Such a great talent. Bet he lived thrice those 59 years than most do. @@wilsonsousa3391
One of the most naturally gifted dribblers of all time. His close control, balance and agility was similar to Maradona, messi and baggio. Cruyff was spot on when he said george best cant be replicated, he was born to be a genius. A complete player and he is the greatest British player of all time.
I agree with everything you said, but not Baggio. He's nowhere near in those players you named bracket... Even in Baggio era. Stojkovic was a superior dribbler to him.
Stojkovic was the last truely great European dribbler I've seen.
Lies.
@@johnpacino007 Are you on drugs? Baggio is not in the same league as BEST!
@@johnpacino007 GEORGE BEST THE GREATEST FOOTBALLER OF ALL TIME!
@@johnhughes8466 I think you misread what i wrote. I actually said, Baggio wasn't in the same league as the players Faraz Khan noted.
I was lucky enough to have a drink with him at his nightclub in London. As a footballer, look at the speed, the balance, the awareness. Look at the state of the pitches and the fact that kicking and body-checking opponents was okay back then. Good though they are, Messi and Ronaldo aren't on the same level as George was. Maradona may have come close, but for me, Bestie is the greatest player who ever lived.
Agreed all the way.
George Best was a magician... he could do everything with the ball 👌
@O verdadeiro Sergio Ricardo VARdridogs
Aye, he was a magician alright. He could make a drink vanish just like that!
Amazing player ! Even after all the years we can feel the magic.
Seen him play several times for N Ireland in Belfast , remember his performance against Scotland , astonishing , Actually made my hair raise , the atmosphere was electric , Local newspaper said it all with headlines next day , “GEORGE BEST 1 SCOTLAND 0 “ , never be another like him , rest in peace George , thanks for the memories 👍
Goosebumps!!! George Best is one of the best players to have graced the field. Thank you for uploading.
A talent that will appear every 100 years
Saw him many times at Old Trafford with Charlton and Denis Law. There was no one to touch him He was a genius.
It looks like he was a player from modern times he was insanely talented that close control at that speed and dribbling is unimaginable wow! So gifted
Not only that...keeping that close control and that dribbling on those kind of pitches....i am in awe in seeing that....modern footballers are used to and demand perfect pitch conditions to play properly but back then these players played with what the pitch had to offer which in some or most wasn't much.....add to the fact that the ball back then was probably a little heavier
absolutely correct
Modern times ?? which modern time players play like this other than one /two like Messi , Neymar?
Lol. Most of these players these days don't even have the skills , technique.
Full of Robots and athletic players . Like Mbappe , Foden etc are being considered the future of football shows how the top level talent has declined
Back in 90s 80s there were way way more technical players , skillful players than these robots we see these days since 2010s. Players don't even play for the joy , skillful or even have that level of technique
Thats why robots like Salah , KDB etc gets best in the world shout.
There is no this or that times player
Infact top Players back then in older eras >>> robots now just pressing and without individuality , magic etc (bar a few)
60s - Pele , Eusebio , Best, Garrincha , Sivori , Rivera etc so many technically astute players
70s - Cruyff , Becekenbaeur , Rivellino , Jairzinho etc
80s - Maradona , Platini, Zico , Francescoli , valderamma , falcao , Basten , gullit etc
90s - Ronaldo , Romario , Zidane , Rivaldo , Totti, Del Piero etc
where are the players now other than messi and Neymar? Cr7 is a eyesore , robotic footballer. This is the generation of robots
@@sohelbashar6925 robot? What? Tf, most of the time the footballing greats like Ronaldo 9, Maradona, does they play with versatile skills? Van basten, Cruyyf?
Even 2000-ish player like Thierry Henry, Paul Scholes, Lampard, Gerrard the premier league greats didn't often do a versatile skills, it's because most of the time it doesn't work and it's not efficient for a teamwork football to do that kind of skills. Even Neymar often just dribble normally, it's not robotic, it's a way to play. If you want to see that kind of skills, watch futsal. Football is not for you.
@@skinwalkerhunter21
These players you mentioned had great skills unlike today robotic players . I have been watching football since 1978 and even though it was much slower back it was more enjoyable and had great variety of talents , today I can't even finish watching 1 game
My 2 favourite players of all time jimmy Johnstone and George best , i seen best at easter road at the end of his career and still the best player on the park everyone loved George best he was pure magic .
I seen George Best play when I was a kid in the 70s he was totally amazing
Simply magical. A joy to watch. I idolized him as a boy, and I was a gooner! Mental strength matched with athletic agility and endurance, incredible skill and pure genius. RIP.
Today's football players: "you can't play good football with awful pitches"
George Best: "hold my beer"
this shouldn't be so funny!
George couldve done it with a beer in hand......
The one person most likely to actually have a beer in hand when uttering that phrase
@@larryboyes7276 and a fit bird on his prick
Best commentary kkkk
Thanks for posting. One of the best compilations I’ve seen on the net. He was my hero as a young lad living in Belfast a real idol on the pitch. Leave his off field antics to the key board judges. Just one of the greatest footballers ever seen.
He was Europe's answer to Garrincha,both were supremely talented and were the best wingers of thier generation.Best unfortunately like garrincha had a weak spot for alcohol and women
Yh
Garrincha did that shit with one leg shorter than the other!!
I-N-C-O-M-P-A-R-A-B-L-E🤯
Džajić better than both of them, as Pelé said.
@@viktorpantic4057 Pelé said: "if he was Brazilian he would become one of the greatest of all times".
But Pelé didn't say that Džajić was better than Garrincha🤷♂️
@@mixedmartialarts8123 Pelé said that Džajić was such an ellegant winger, best and most talented winger in 20th century and he had not seen anyone naturally good as him, at least that's what I read in our media, maybe they changed it, because they are changing news often to get more views, but still, if he said sth like that, I agree, Garrincha had much better dribbling skills, which doesn't mean that Dragan wasn't good at dribbling, but in that area, Garrincha is best ever, still Dragan had better shoot, pass, crosses...
Wow he was just unstoppable ..!!
The fact that the strip he wore was heavier than today's modern material. The fact that the pitches were rediculous compared to the carpets they play on now.. The fact that the ball was heavier than they are today... A few facts proving what a talented genius George Best was.
the ball was not heavier then, that is a strangely persistent myth, although it was heavier in wet conditions.
@@arnold-hu4vk contradicting yourself there... Strangely persistent myth....?
@@AD-zn2gs Where is the contradiction? The ball weighed the same then as it does now. The only argument for the ball being heavier then was when it was used in wet conditions. I hope that clears it up for you.
@@arnold-hu4vk so you're saying that the ball WAS sometimes heavier.? There's your contradiction.. Hope that help clears your mistake up...
@@AD-zn2gs Oh dear, you seem to be struggling. Ok, I'll try again. The ball back in the 60's was required to be the same weight as the ball is now. however, due to the material it was made with back then, when it was used in wet conditions it would become heavier as it absorbed more water than modern footballs. So, in the majority of the footage of Best playing he is using a ball that weighed the same as the balls used now. There you go, I hope that made sense. If not I can link to an article all about it.
football,lady, alcohol, party, car this man is legend in every where.what a player.really they don,t produce player like him now anymore.RIP LEGEND 🐐
THE KING OF MANCHESTER UNITED
THE REAL LEGENDARY NUMBER 7
THE ORIGINAL 7 GEORGE BEST
true
Without a shadow of a doubt.
Sorry but ronaldo took his crown from him
@@DBDYAKU, not for me he didn't. Ronaldo was a cry baby
he wouldn't have survived what George Best received week in week out, the Assasins treatment.
@@DBDYAKU You mean divenaldo?🤣truly he is the greatest player to dive in pitch
He was an absolute Legend🔥
Matt Busby's team talks at United were usually along the lines of,"Get the ball to George as soon as possible...!"😊😊
Glad matigol vidz made this. Been telling millenniels, that there where great players, outside of their Messi-Ronaldo fan boy obsessions.
Georgie Best buttery-smooth dribbling, with unbelievable feet to feet coordinations, make any phase of Cristiano Ronaldo career, look like a trained robot!
Best had such mastery of the ball on *_any_* playing surface, he could beat a sackful of defenders with his eyes closed, without looking at the ball.
Well said John.
George best wasn't running he was gliding across d pitch amazing
laughable how so many kids dont rate him, the man had it all - bravery, flair and amazing balance - easily sits in top 2 of all time, for me he's number 1
For me, he's still the greatest ever, and his great days ended at the end of 1972 when he was 26 - in all of his returns he was never the same.
And of course most of his play was never filmed, therefore so much more of his greatness exists now only in the memories of those who saw it live.
How I wish I'd been to even one of those games.
Tavy@ how can any one be better than that. I just sat there with my mouth hanging open lol he was just born to play football. He could swerve his body in 3 diffrent ways at the same time and still beat players without touching the ball. I saw him do it there a few times lol awe brilllliant so he was. Greatest player ever. Easy!!!!!
An absolute genius. He played like Messi, but against players that could hack you to bits and on pitches that you wouldn't graze animals on these days, but Best glided across them. Absolutely up there with Pele, Maradona, Puskas etc as the greatest ever. Just watching this is pure poetry.
totally agree with you but some people don't understand that and stupidly say the defenders weren't as good! No matter how good they were, defenders (and others) were routinely allowed to commit fouls that would be instant red and long bans these days but not even get a yellow. So yeah maybe not quite as athletic but a whole lot more difficult and dangerous
Amazing and beautiful, his ball control and ability to make right decisions while running at top speed or accelerating is breathtaking..
He was playing football, his opponents were playing rugby
In today's "no contact" game he would be absolutely unstoppable, I still remember the day he scored six goals against Northampton Town
The Cobblers? Enough said 🤭 Seriously though, the standard of football in general has greatly improved since back then. Don't forget to take that in to consideration when comparing any player from the past, with the likes of Messi and Ronaldo...
@@Supreme_321 Sorry i don't agree, players today are faster, fitter but thats all. They play on bowling greens and your not allowed to tackle. How would Messi and Ronaldo do if they played on the mud heaps that George Best played on and had to face the hard tackling he had to endure, would they be as good? i don't think they would.
@@jamesgordon2805 Messi and Ronaldo would be able to play anywhere themselves and against any opposition to be fair.
Now he can treble the goals.
As a city supporter i have to say George was simply brilliant and any fan who didn't enjoy watching him play you dont know football
I'm a leeds fan i have always been a fan of George, todays players can't come close to him, they watch what they eat ,when to go to bed, then there's George , he only went to bed when a blonde was in it,as for what he consumed, we'll say no more. LEGEND!!!!!
Really correct.who don't enjoy George best dribbles don't know anything of football except Messi and Ronaldo.
@@nelvaldo.4850 Very nice thing to say. You'll know of course that the brilliant Paul Reaney was better against him than anyone else.
@@ysgol3 Yes mate,our paul is a great fellow, for George to say he was one of the best players he Played against is one hell of a compliment, there will never be the likes of the old school players again.
@@nelvaldo.4850 Yes dead right, and so many are dying now aren't they - Nobby last year I think, and I was very sorry about Peter Lorimer recently. Who's your favourite/favourites from those golden days? Along with George Denis and Bobby, I loved Bell, Ball, Lee, Bremner, Greaves and Jimmy Johnstone most I think.
Best collection of clips I've ever seen. A player that truly would have reached his full potential in the modern game with a modern manager.
60 odd years since he started playing and i doubt anyone can say there has been a more talented British player since. He could do it all. His ability was on the genius level.
The greatest, watched him years ago, never seen anyone better.
Superb footballer. The vision and ball distribution he achieved, coupled with his dribbling skills, balance and ability to ride tackles was second to no one.
Love the immaculate pitches, and those featherweight boots, and all that protection from the referees ... that’s really all you need to become one of the best players of all time
😂😂😂
And here we have messi & his national team bitchin & complaining about quality of pitch 🙄.
It's the ball that makes the game so much easier to play you needed technique to lift the ball now you need a technique to keep it down
To be fair the boots weren't that bad then. You have to go back to the fifties for the really heavy boots.
One of the greatest dribblers in the history of football, he did not need to do so many feints of legs to disorient the opponent
pity he did not lead the life of an athlete!
This is where myth becomes reality for some people! GEORGE BEST was an incredibly fit athlete from 63 to 70 and trained like a demon! He would stay behind after training to hone his supreme talent!
@@johnhughes8466 YES ! Indeed I'd say he carried on training like that up to the end of 72 despite increasing problems - he always trained (as you put it perfectly) like a demon when he came back. But at the end of 72, it was suddenly, tragically, all over.
@John Wayne Cheers John!
@@ysgol3 I would agree with you there!
Athletes run and dive. This ain't the Olympics.
Simply the BEST. Rode tackles did not fall to the ground looking for a free kick or penalty just stayed on his feet. Pure GENIUS.
One of the best players to have never played in the world cup
I would say The best player to never play in the world Cup
@@whiterabbit699 exactly!
after Di Stefano
@@whiterabbit699 the greatest
Maradona : good , Pele : better , Best is best .
He is just so good to watch, his mind is a step ahead of the defender all the time. Cheeky ad libs as well, that special thing that only he could think of in a split second, outrageous, creative. Brave too, some real bruisers around on tricky pitches at that time and he still made football beautiful.
Henri, Cantona, Bergkamp, spring to mind from the 90s, Maradona from the 80s. Today? Messi, Ronaldo on another planet, incredible players, Gods. Entertainment quality creativity beauty. Just like George.
Can you imagine him on the perfect pitches in this era, unstoppable
For a short period this was the greatest footballer ever seen on the planet. Period .
I spent my childhood adoring George. I remember most of the goals in that video - thank you for it, OP. My favourite goal is the one which is shown at +/- 4 mins 56 secs - it is against Spurs & George chips Pat Jennings, across defenders, from the edge of the box. R.I.P. & thank you, George Best
May I ask how do you look at the modern game growing up on watching G. Best?
Class, left and right footed make him such a perfectly balanced footballer. Maybe you need to have an addictive personality to get as good as the best.
Heavy pitches heavy ball heavy boots tackles from behind plus two footed tackles todays divas wouldn't last 5 minutes
Yes but the players had more space and time on the ball back then.
@@ronniep9272
Which isn't very good
5 seconds
spot on with that the ball and state of pitches plus someone like chopper harris coming at you to take your legs with him and no yellow card lol thinking of neymar ha he be shitting himself if he was playing back ten
then not ten
Great Legend...he is the best
I watched him many a time, mostly at Old Trafford. I'd forgotten how much speed he had.
Legend
Uno de los mejores de la historia, sin dudas. 👍⚽.
an absolute phenomenon ... and he played on potato fields ... not the lawns of now
England can only dream of producing a player as naturally gifted as this guy. Gazza is their most gifted but still nowhere near as gifted as this guy.
Go watch Sir Tom Finney. He was similar to Best but without the exposure of the swinging 60's. If born 15 years later he'd be more regarded when talking of the greatest player ever. For some people football only started from 1960. Shame.
Where he was born is irrelevant.In fairness,it was in England where he first made his mark.😊
Matt le tissier was more gifted than gazza.
@@faraazkhan90 Arguably,but he was born on the island of Guernsey,which is nearer to France than England.😊
What are the rules of this pointless argument?!!😕
@@andijw79 Sir Stanley Matthews was supposed to be rather special too. Nicknamed "the wizard of dribble".
He was one off never be anyone like him again r.i.p George
Your channel is gold broh🖒 thanks for posting videos about old legends
As a man united fan for over 59 years I watched the genius that is George Best no one to match him
My mum was in his class at school!!,got the same bus as him as well! Always remembers him as polite and chatty and the best player on the playground /field. Wonderful talent although I personally think Diego Maradona is the greatest player that ever lived with George a close second and I'm Northern Irish.
Naw. Pelé & Di Stéfano where more complete than both of them. There's more to being a great player, than jinky dribbling.
@richardmonteith1641
Would you know if it is true that he never got picked for Northern Ireland school boys because he didn't go to one of the posh schools ?
Read that in Joe Lovejoy's great biography.
George Best would cost billions today
corpore Neymar is garbage
@@stephenstephen6754 are you talking with brains or guts? Neymar is amazing, we just expected a bit more.
@@stephenstephen6754 Neymar is an excellent player, not the best, but almost.
@@stephenstephen6754 cus he won the treble and is one of the best attacking trio in football history?
@in corpore Surly that is because Messi was never for sale/sold from FCB? He would have been at least 1 billion at peak. He now has a 700m euro release, a couple months from being 34 years old.
Salute Matigol! Great job!
Thank you for the video, I had to share with my brother. I'm 71 years old and never realized how remarkable he was. This was truly a fun watch.
Even CHOPPER HARRIS couldn't stop him ,what an incredible talent
On those pitches, with that ball and no protection from the referee... No player nowadays comes even close.
The new ball makes average players seem good
No no true - Best was exceptional but those pitches also helped him as defenders struggled to get their footing and could not turn quickly and some of the defending in the footage - if not all of it, is just total rubbish, nothing like what Messi and Maradona faced/face. Best never faced defenders with the bullish talent of those today nor the sophistication of modern defensive systems - not even close. The game has evolved with the benefits of technology so every weakness can be exposed and disected in minute detail. Best was a great of his era and extremely gifted but also a drunk dickhead off the field who wasted his talent in a bottle.
I wouldn't say that. As incredible as Best was, most defenders back then from what I can see were clumsy, talentless knuckleheads. Most of the attempts to defend we see in this video are rubbish. Messi and Ronaldo may play on better pitches with better balls, but they're up against more talented defenders these days.
@@stuartwells8278 I won't dispute that and we will never know if he would have glided past today's players with such ease and grace if he had grown up playing football in this era, but judging from his skill, movement, touches, footwork, balance and speed with the ball, I'm confident it would be more entertaining to watch him dribble in today's game than it is to watch 99% of Premier League players.
@@Dragon-bz6eb How do you think a player as gifted as that on those pitches with that ball and those killers around would have done in today's game if he went through the academy system? Do you really think he'd struggle with Harry Maguire and John Stones???
Incredible ball control on destroyed pitches, imagine how good he would be on one of todays boweling green pitches. Phenominal talent.
Thank you MatigolVidz . So hard to get footage of George best. Just see the same few clips again and again.
So this is very much appreciated.
Thank you.
Feel like I'm watching Messi in Black and white. The skills the turn of pace in tight areas. The close control, the pass and still goes when being hit hard. WOW!
in legendary dribbling skills, he looks like messi or maybe even better
And thats an insult to Best as Best didn’t get protected like Messi does by intimidating the referee and referee’s frightened to give a decision against him in fact it was the opposite with Best as the referees took pleasure in penalising him because of his idol status.
@@johnaustin635 Can’t disagree with that my friend I was only imposing a similar effect in a game that has changed a lot over the years. Better pitches, less hard men and even worse the eradication Of turning over the ball it’s a shame that a Brian Robson or Reid, Keane or Souness wouldn’t fit into the modern game. At least not in the same way! So it also applies here with the attacking players. Thanks for the comment 👍
"Feel like I'm watching Messi in Black and white." Most of these clips are in colour you
dope!🙄
@@CB-xr1eg How intelligent and smart you are. You must be very proud!
I have been lucky enough to see the real Ronaldo and C7, Messi, and many others but Best was the greatest, he could shoot, dribble, head, tackle and had that little bit of nastiness.One of the few players I wanted in our Chelsea team, genius.
"George Best is the best player in the world"
Pelé
I read that Pele claimed Alfredo Di Stefano was the best player he'd ever seen.
@@stuartwells8278 Pelé Said that Stefano was the best he Saw, but he said Also that Best in that specific moment was the Best player, and obviously one of the Best ever
@@danielarreola1326 So Pele believed that at the the time when Best was playing the game, he was the best player in the world? That makes more sense. At the time when Best was in the game, he probably was the best in the world. Apart from Pele, of course.
Pelé should not be quoted.
What never changes over time are the gifts incredible footballers share:
1. Acute spacial awareness. The ability to know instinctively the best place for the ball to be at any given time in relation to you, your team mates and the opposition.
2. The ability to kick/touch the ball so that it does exactly what you want it to do, whether that be control, passing, dribbling or tricks.
3. The ability to react more quickly/predict what the opposition will do based on what the ball does.
4. Speed.
Everyone can learn these skills, it's just that incredibly gifted footballers learn them far more quickly than anyone else.
Genius's eleven minutes. George is BEST FOREVER!!! Thank you very much from Ukraine.
The best player ever.
Wouldn’t get in best 11 ni mind best ever.
😂 Maybe not...
@Ben Parkes 🤣🤣 where would he play once Maradona, Pele, goofy Ronaldo, Messi, Zidane, Ronaldhino and today’s Ronaldo are all on a the team sheet before him 🤷♂️ yer might not like it but just not good enough.
best and most inspirational player in Man Utd history so far
¡Qué video hermano!
Loved watching Bestie, especially at our immaculate Baseball Ground!
His acceleration and speed as well as dribbling, just fantastic.
That lad from Belfast.... The greatest
Absolutely the GOAT. Simply sublime.
George had everything the best player in world ever 🙏🙏
The greatest footballer that ever lived.
Shit Maradona.
They way he rides those tackles and sometimes brutal challenges is just out of this world. At his best he simply glided around on those heavy pitches majestically a truly great player.
REST IN PEACE
LEGEND
ONLY ONE GEORGIE
ONLY ONE BEST
thanks for the memories
He was like an ancient Messi. Total genius.
yeah every genius has to be that midget right? Pele and Maradona both were more inventive, had more improvisation genius than messi. Whose game is more robotic and leftsided , top two dribblers yes. Bt that is not only genius
Football is much tough that time . Cannon ball like football , cow field . Horrible tackles and loose football rules and referring . How best dribbles on those pitches , today's players can't even manage to do a proper through pass on those pitches .
Simply the Best 🇬🇧

Thank you, George. If this man played today he would be The god of football. My brother (who is now passed) hated sport, no interest at all except one day I caught him watching a football game and I commented why he was watching the match, "Well, George Best is playing!" he said.
A natural genius, George's name should always come up in any discussion of the world's greatest players. I had forgotten just how quick George could be in his younger days.
There is no one to compare with the world's greatest ever footballer than BEST!!!!
Grande George,la leggenda!!!
The best player of all the times! Incredible!!!!
An unstoppable force of nature.
Not just once in a century, but a once EVER tpr of player.
Absolute poetry in motion.
Possibly the most graceful, beautiful, silk like player of this glorious game.
George, I'm told, was an absolute joy to watch, who could, and did, reduce grown men to tears with the sheer majesty of his art.
Sleep tight Georgie.
Que rapidez e técnica... Poucos são igual a ele... Só vi 3 até agora...!!!
The greatest player the world has ever seen.
And to think that so much footage of games that Best played in was taped over and lost forever. Thankfully we still have some surviving film to remind us of the exceptional player he was. Rest in peace Georgie Best.
Great compilation, thanks. Makes me laugh when the defenders are left sprawling on the ground with his dummies and feints.
The Best!!!!!!
The best player who ever lived.
Tavy@ george could make a ball talk. He was with out a doubt the biggest crowd puller. There was never an empty space all through that upload.
Poetry in motion. George Best's partnership with Dennis Law simply the Best. He played hard and he partied hard. Thanks for the skill and entertainment!!!
He reminds me off Roy of the rovers bursting through defences beating 2 or 3 defenders and scoring great goals it's like a comic strip hero has come to life
