Ok everyone tends to say Best as a matter of course bit I think Jinky was better and here is a few reasons why.\n\nJinky played at the top level for longer peroid\n\nJinky played at a higher level as between 1967 and 1975 Celtic were rarely out of the semi finals of the European Cup\n\nJinky went to a World Cup Final\n\nPeople tend to say Best because the English cant see past Carlilse\n\nJinky was more of a team player\n\nAnd finally casue Frank McAvennie said so at his funeral

No as good as Jimmy Johnstone was, there was only one Best.\nEven "Pele" acknowledged this.\nBest could play with both feet.\nHe could head and tackle.\nHe was a winger but scored as many goals as a centre forward.\n\nFinally in 1967, United beat West Ham 6 v 1, away.\nThe West Ham team consisted of Moore, Hurst and Peters.\n(all 3 World Cup winners, 1 year before)

i thought it was shilton but after checking he retired after italia 90. woods and martyn were taken to euro 92, and seaman wasnt, but by 93 he became the first choice under terry venables. so technically it wasnt shilton before seaman it was chris woods! i didnt even remember who he was i must admit

I've got an offensive name you know!  So Scots-lad U think we are all just gettin laid on the net.  The night me and Anne and LF and Jeff C et al, went round to Fudgies for an orgy, it was very clean and tidy and no smelly socks actually!!!  \n\nI think the Huns will get Humped too but probably not by celic!  They will raise there game and hold on for a 1-1 jammy draw and le gwendoline will be an all conquerin hero again and nobody will notice when they get HUMPED by Hibs a few weeks later!\n\nNice hat sweetie!! x

So many of the answers in this question thing stink of bullshit. Am I the only one who picks up on the 'Man Yoo' thing?\n\nOld know all: United have 8 English players in their match squad. Compare this with Chelski and Arsenal. Technically it's 7 because Richardson's an empty shirt on a par with Silvestre.\nL F: Fuck off and get a DNA test before acting like an Eichmann.\nSUPASPURS: Surely you would want them to get dumped out of the competition ASAP? It hurts a hell of a lot more.\nAnyone that thinks United will walk over Celtic, particularly those comparing them to Southend: Say what you will about the Scottish league, like how shit it is. But look at Celtic's home record in Europe, only Barcelona have beat them.

It's simple in a odd kinda way. U see both Rangers & Celtic are from the west of Scotland where a lot of Irish moved to way back when.\n\nCeltic was formed by a priest and have a largely catholic following, they carry green white and yellow flags as well as Irish banners and sing the fields of athenrie.\n\nRangers on the other hand have a predominantly protestant following, fly the Union Jack and sing their own Irish protestant songs.\n\nReligion has no place in soccer, nor does singing songs about protestant paramillitary groups or the IRA, however, I am sad to say both the Rangers & Celtic fans think this is o.k.\n\nThe away fans are generally the worst, when they visit other grounds.  There is comming a day when this will be stamped out but sadly it's very much a part of the west of Scotland culture

arguebly george best .alas! this greatest of all time grearts is no more . tears come down we could not see this man is not in action at present . i wish he should have born now . when we see some of his older film , i feel what a player he was ,possing abandant of skill and brilliances . we remember only maradona, pele, boby charlton, boby moor, but nobody seems bother about this creature of god who once ruled the english and european circuit only but never played any world cup .

I dont want you to lose 5 points this week by falling for the Northern Ireland answer.\n\nAlexander George Cheyne (ref got spelling wrong) scored the winner for SCOTLAND direct from a corner in 89th minute of a British Championship game against England on 13th April 1929.\n\nThe match was played at Hampden Park in front of 110512 people.\n\nWorth a beer from all you MX fantasy football managers?

I can go one better than that.In 1967 Glasgow Celtic of Scotland one the Quadruple i.e 4 trophies in 1 season.This was The League Championship,Scottish Cup,Scottish League Cup and the biggest of them all the European Cup.I believe that no one has ever one a Euro trophy as well as 3 trophies in their domestic league other than the great Celtic

Mark James has strong views on certain matters, that is for sure.  However, he has been through quite a lot in his personal life which may excuse him for being slightly bitter.  I can see why you don't like him, but my overriding golf memory of him was how happy he was after the 1999 Open at Carnoustie when Paul Lawrie had just won.  This cemented Paul's place in the Ryder Cup team and Mark was obviously pleased to welcome him on board.  As a golfer, you are certainly correct, he couldn't lace Faldo's boots.  However, Faldo has been known to be outspoken himself in the past, and won't be the most popular captain ever.  That aside, I hope that everyone gets behind him and the team and we see another resounding victory in the States.

surely oliver kahn is better he has got experience as compared to the other goalkeeper lehman. lehman also had a bad season 4 arsnel. so kahn deserves this slot surely. he was also the best player in the last world cup.so bring bak kahn

Owen for downing?.... downings a great player... but what a strange thing to do.... cos he knows he made a mistake with walcott and has no other striker option... where is bent?...what more do you have to do to get on the side than be the highest British goalscorer in the premiership (playin for a mediocre side at that)?...... of course we got the obligatory hargreaves....who?...i hear you all say....blah blah blah.....

england are NOT the best team in the world on paper, they're just quite good. world rankings mean sweet f.a. sorry guys - the USA was 4th going in to the world cup. england haven't beaten a big side in a competitive game in years - i think the last one that could be considered a 'big' side would be argentina in 2002 - and that was in the group stage, against an admittedly poor argentina side, from a spot kick. come on people! just admit england are sh.it\n\nteams that could win:\nportugal\ngermany\nspain\nitaly (but i wouldn't bank on it)

Well i wish this issue was put on discussion long time ago, the football fields lost a very talented player who was one of the best in the world but the problem is that he was from wales and they never qualified to the world cup.. he was the great goerge best, he was so talented and nowadays we r missing important players like keane who never qualified to the world cup and therefore i think yes they should do a combined team and this will be better for all, they can all play under the name of the unied kingdom..

no this is svens cup tilt. Everyone thinks of the manager as the winner of the cup thats why I believe its important that an englishman is manager of the english team. In 5years time no one will remember all the team they will remember the manager, and remember him as Swedish. Do you think he will let McClaren take his glory NO.
