Former Manchester United and Northern Ireland star George Best dies in hospital at the age of 59.

Without doubt one of best footballers (btw not soccer, English invented game so we get to name it!! its FOOTBALL... anyway back to topic :P ) of all time!

Lived the dream

R.I.P George Best
The greatest footballer the world as ever seen, hes from my home town as well (Belfast). But I dont think im biased the guy had it all, two feet, could tackle, could ride a tackle, could head the ball and was probably the best dribbler ever as well.

Never to be forgotten

I hate to spoil the party but he was a waste of space. Excellent player no doubt, but when he died he was just wasting medical resources which could have gone to somebody who wouldnt waste them. For example that liver transplant went totally to waste, that could have saved somebody. A playing legend, but otherwise an all round waste of skin. Only just noticed that topic thats why my opinion is so late in veing voiced.
