George Best
Manchester United football legend and a footballing genius. He had speed, superb dribbling skills, the ability to accelerate past players and was adept with both feet. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest players to have graced the British game. Together with Denis Law and Bobby Charlton, Best formed a triumvirate that inspired Manchester United to League Championships in 1965 and 1967 and the European Cup in 1968. His heyday occurred during the "swinging sixties", and, with his good looks, he brought a pop star image to the game for the first time.
