A virtuoso with the ball at his feet, few could match George Best for pace or skill.

The Manchester United wideman wore this shirt in 1970 during one of his greatest ever performances. The Northern Irishman netted six goals against Northampton Town in the FA Cup Fifth Round.

"I remember thinking George was going to go one way, but he dropped his shoulder and went the other, and by then I was already on the deck. He was just too good for me." - Northampton goalkeeper Kim Book describing George Best's sixth goal.
