GEORGE BEST, UNITED HERO
You might have heard United fans signing songs about George Best at Old Trafford, or seen the famous United Trinity statue outside the stadium, and wondered just how good Bestie must have been.
He really was one of the greatest players that ever kicked a ball, and that’s no exaggeration. He had skills like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and that’s despite playing with heavy, old-fashioned footballs on horrible muddy pitches.
He used to get kicked up and down the wing by angry defenders who couldn’t deal with his skills, but he would just get up and beat them again!
