George Best.

I never said it was, but not for the first time, the words are twisted. There is a difference between 'not that bad' and 'acceptable'. Still wrong what Cantona did, but as a one-off under provocation, I cant dislike him for it, he's till a great gut with a few faults.

 

I didnt twist your words I made a comment

Pele said that George Best was the greatest player in the world , but his personal life was

very bad. Cantona was a good footballer, but an ******** all the same. Following the trawler

was just his way of being awkward just to get attention. He couldn't lace Best's boots.

 

In your opinion. Its funny how the people that emigrate always try to be the most provocative.

Distance being the great asset of the keyboard wimp, sorry, warrior.

 

Cantona, in my opinion, and many other peoples, was far more talented than Best. Best was the one deserving the asterisks if anybody.

And a little poetry shouldn't be offensive to you, I don't suppose you get much of anything involving imagination and creativity there though.

Neither of them are fit to lace Dean Stokes' boots.

I've said it before, of all the players I've seen live at a football match (and I've seen all the 'greats' since the sixties), I'd put George Best out in front, on his own.

He was a superb player, an absolute joy to watch.

I can't recall all the greats I've watched over many years off the top of my head and it's hard to compare one generation with another, as well as players in different positions, but the ones that spring immediately to mind would be Banks, Greaves and King Kenny.

 

But I guess many on here aren't old enough to recognise some of these names!

Agreed.

Where do you live then? As the biggest attention seeker on the site, it must be ****ing far away.

I'm too young to have seen Best play, but I can remember me and my mates at school in south Manchester used to think Cantona was cool. I'm not sure any of us condoned karate kicking random opposition fans, or going missing in big European games, or any of the other assaults he used to sporadically commit on opposition players.

 

I find it's best not to try and analyse these things too much.

 

I'm old enough to have seen George Best playing both in live matches and on TV. Take it from me, in terms of pure footballing ability, there's absolutely no comparison between Cantona & Best--without any shadow of a doubt, George Best was by far the better player.
