On this day in 1963, George Best made his debut for Manchester United vs West Brom at Old Trafford.
Speed, balance, vision, superb close control, the ability to create chances and score from seemingly impossible situations tells half the story. The other half was an uncontainable zest for the game as it should be played, a ceaseless trickery and joy. Pelé, for his part, dubbed United’s no.7 "the greatest player in the world."

If you mean in the 21st Century, then yeah. But before? Ohhh, there were a few just as good as Ronaldo, and Best was better. If Ronaldo was here for longer when he was phenomenal instead at Real Madrid, then maybe he would have been the best No.7
