Zitat des Tages von George Best:
I have always thought I was the best ever player.
I'm lucky that, despite all the bad press I've had over the years, the public still seems to like me.
When I was playing, there were always lots of teams in contention for the league - Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool, Leeds. Every week was a big game and a big battle.
At the start of the season, there are 16 teams in the top division looking behind them, making sure they avoid relegation. The fear starts in the boardroom, comes down to managers and through to players. The fans sense it.
Players today moan about the number of games, but when you're young, you can't play enough.
I dressed more like a pop star, I suppose, rather than the traditional blazer and tall trousers other players went for.
David Beckham has never impressed me.
From the FA to UEFA and FIFA, there's a naivety, a lack of knowledge and understanding and packed with people who are out of touch.
I definitely don't think that money can buy you love. It can buy you affection but certainly not love.
I used to rush home to see 'Match Of The Day.' Whatever I was doing, I wouldn't miss it.
There isn't a single player I would pay to watch. You can say Thierry Henry, he's a fabulous striker, with pace and power, but a great entertainer needs to have charisma, too. Does he have charisma? No.
I noticed that when I touched the ball on the field, you could hear this shrill noise in the crowd with all the birds screaming like at a Beatles concert.
I'd have to be superman to do some of the things I'm supposed to have done, I've been at six different places at six different times.
My one big regret is that I didn't play on for ten more years.
Drink is the only opponent I have been unable to beat.
Players now have a groin injury for months and months, and I often think they don't really give a toss whether they're playing or not because they're getting paid anyway.
I've always been a bit of a gypsy.
The onus is on the managers to send out an attacking formation and to tell their players to be bold.
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.
I used to go missing a lot... Miss Canada, Miss United Kingdom, Miss World.
I was born with a great gift, and sometimes with that comes a destructive streak.
There are so many memories for me in Manchester. Everywhere I go, I think, 'I used to have boutiques here, clubs there, restaurants in that area.'
It all went wrong with football, the thing I loved most of all, and from there, my life slowly fell apart.
I got my buzz from playing.
If you make up your own mind, you can only blame yourself.
Dave Mackay is my definition of a superstar. The man broke his leg three times, but wouldn't be carried off. He walked off.
Maybe 'loner' is too strong a word, but I've always enjoyed being on my own.
I have really been disillusioned with soccer in England.
In England, when an athlete gets to the top, we do our best to destroy him.
I rate Fabien Barthez and played with two great keepers in Alex Stepney and Harry Gregg.
Nobody knows me.
