Man Utd George Best - A Genius and A Legend DVD George Best - A Genius and A Legend DVD is the definitive story of George Best. It follows his life from that shy 15 year old boy who took the daunting journey to Old Trafford right up to the immensely moving scenes at his funeral in December 2005. There is a saying in his native Northern Ireland: "Pele good, Maradona better, George Best". Not many would argue with that! When George Best died, such was the love of so many people, that 100,000 turned out in the rain at his funeral for the closest thing to a state funeral Northern Ireland had seen for generations. Millions more watched on television around the globe, to pay tribute to one of the greatest footballers the world had ever seen. It was an incredibly moving day. This DVD traces the life and footballing career of George Best. It contains plenty of goals and great moments on the football pitch, including those wonderful European performances in 1966 and 1968 against Benfica. The story is told through interviews with George over a period of 25 years, as well as comments from players, celebrities, family and friends. And, interestingly, there are archive snippets of non-footballing moments too. This really is the complete and definitive story of the life and footballing career of George Best. It contains many great goals, moments of wizardry and highlights from a truly outstanding footballer. Much of the story is punctuated by interviews with George himself, as well as comments from many contemporaries, friends and family providing a very personal insight into the genius, that was George Best.

Football He was a member of the Manchester United side that robbed Leeds of the Championship in 1965, and the Championship side of 1967 that subsequently won the European Cup. Sadly as a Northern Ireland international, he was never to set a World Cup competition alight. When George was 50, the UK's national television devoted an evening to him, and so the myth grows out of the legend. George probably still qualifies as Stockport County's most illustrious name.
