John Charles
George Best
Denis Law
Bobby Charlton

I saw him play, and he was excellent.
But I'm afraid you let just a little Welsh bias creep in there Diafol

Not being biased 52.

Just naming the probable best from each of the countries within the UK.

But if you can have Shearer then I can have Charles!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry Diafol, I hadn't twigged you were doing one from each home country

Best, Moore or Dalglish. Frankly insulting to put Rooney and Bale in with them

The British primitive goat is a landrace of domestic goat native to Great Britain and Ireland, and is the original goat of the region.

Rooney, Rashford, Scholes, Neville, Rio, Rooney, Giggs, Butt, Beckham, Rooney, Pallister, Robson, Best, Rooney, Cole, Yorke, Rooney, P.Neville, Greenwood, Rooney, Charlton, Rooney

A landrace is a domesticated, locally adapted, traditional variety of a species of animal or plant that has developed over time, through adaptation to its natural and cultural environment of agriculture and pastoralism, and due to isolation from other populations of the species.

It feels a bit contradictory to engage people in a greatest of ALL TIME debate and then say you're not going to consider anyone from before your own time.

I would also like to throw in a mention for Dixie Dean as the greatest footballer of the shorts-pulled-up-to-your-armpits era.

I would prefer those who of us here who have watched the likes of George best to speak up for them. I didn't say I wouldn't consider those players I said wouldn't be able to speak up for them myself regardless of my opinion.

people who name anyone from "only their time" need to shut up and educate themselves.

Wayne Rooney. lol.

John Charles, Bobby Charlton, George Best and Kenny Dalglish come to mind

Same goes for all of us. We can only really speak about the greatest in our own lifetimes. No way to determine a GOAT.
