English Football Legends Johnny Haynes, Sir Bobby Charlton, Nat Lofthouse & More on Duncan Edwards
English Football Legends Johnny Haynes, Sir Bobby Charlton, Nat Lofthouse, Sir Matt Busby, Jimmy Murphy, Alan Mullery, Alan Ball, Wilf McGuinness & Jimmy Murphy on the ability of Duncan Edwards, plus articles from Jimmy Murphy & Don Revie
“He was the best player I ever saw, or am likely to see in my life. If I was asked to name a team of the players I played with, his name would be the first one I would put in, no question about it.” - Sir Bobby Charlton
“I never thought I could be as good as him. Never. He had every talent, he was the best short passer, he was the best long passer. He had terrific vision. His 60-70 yard passes with a heavy ball were pinpoint accurate.
He had an enthusiasm for the game, he never stopped talking about it. He’d pick you up if you were losing. He was absolutely sensational, fantastic. He was a great loss to England, and he would probably have played in the 1966 World Cup final because he was young enough. Probably also the United team that won the European Cup in 1968.” - Sir Bobby Charlton
“He was Roy Keane and Bryan Robson combined, but in a bigger body. He could play as an attacker, creator or defender and be the best player on the pitch… He was world class when United had the ball, and when the opposition has the ball he was our best defender.” - Wilf McGuinness
“I am convinced that Duncan would have been a fixture in the England team well into the 1970s. Whatever was needed in a player, he had it.” - Sir Matt Busby
“You don’t hear many professionals talk lightly of greatness because it is so rare, but that is what I saw in Duncan Edwards the first time I set eyes on him. He reached the same fabulous standard at left-half, centre-half, inside-left and centre-forward. He is the kind of player managers dream about.” - Don Revie
“When you took Duncan out of the England team, you took half the side away.” Nat Lofthouse
“He was the best player I ever saw, or am likely to see in my life. If I was asked to name a team of the players I played with, his name would be the first one I would put in, no question about it.” - Sir Bobby Charlton

Baxter was a damned good player and showed he was world class at that time!!..
Jack was my hero, I am amazed he isnt picked. Their is No Steel in this team.
In a World XI Jack Charlton wouldn't quite make it, only Moore & Franklin of English CB's would have a chance maybe Billy Wright to. Duncan Edwards brings the steel & maybe more so than any player ever. He could cover every blade of grass & with great power & aggression in the tackle.
The Mighty One Brian Clough Should Be The Manager
I’d certainly pay to watch that lot

My grandfather always said that had Edwards lived, England would have 3 world cups. 1958, 1962 and 1966. I believe him. What a talent Edwards was. Biggest single loss to football history, ever.
Matt Busby simply said of Edwards: . “In Duncan Edwards, I believe I have the greatest footballer in the world,” and he wasn't wrong. Fast, skilful, strong, brave, fair, hard working, intelligent, humble, always willing to sign autographs. As a player he covered the whole pitch, a natural leader, a gentleman. Edwards played youth games, reserves, for the Army, and the first team - he played 90 games a season in the run up to the ill-fated European Cup run of 1958, and cycled or walked back to his digs from Old Trafford. We will never see the likes of him again. What a tragedy he was lost far, far too soon.
A special talent was lost for sure.
@@tt99football56 Absolutely. That generation of players were class, all the way. They weren't paid anything like the money they get now. Duncan got a carpentry apprenticeship as part of his contract with United, then he was on the ground staff. The Army would often demand he played games for them instead of England or United. Unique, for all time.
This is like listening to Bob Dylan talk about his favourite songs.
Would've been a better video if you'd added video clips of the players/matches? You could also have added a visual of the players in formation on a pitch?
That's true but there might have been an issue with copyright. I could have but I never thought about it or know how to do that.
Frank McLintock loving it there!
Jimmy baxter as long as my mammy gets a washin machine.
It oddly sad and wonderful at the same time to watch Duncan Edwards. Sad for his loss and wonderful to see and hear the talent of what he had and what he could have achieved. Before my time but all the compliments and talk about him, is so consistent that the man definitely meets the myth/legend.
Brian Clough as manager
Listening to that was a true privilege. Thank you
Interesting choices by Sir Bobby: however, I think there would be too many egos for his team to work! The best 11 players don't necessarily make the best team-and it's a team game. Bobby should have put himself in there-the best English player I saw 'live' many times.
That 12 would take some beating. If I could travel back in time I would go and see Duncan Edwards play. Charlton spoke so well. I like what he said about el diego
All time XI becomes all time 12. 😂 RIP Sir Bobby.
This is brilliant it is truly like listening to an historic gemstone. RIP Bobbly Charlton ❤
From what I've been told by my grandparents and from what I've heard ex pros say, Duncan Edwards is the greatest player the UK & Ireland has ever produced and that includes George Best, Roy Keane, Paul McGrath, Jimmy Greaves, Dennis Law and the great John Charles. Having lived in Glasgow I know all about Slim Jim and I used to watch him gamble almost every night in a Casino in the early 1980's. He might have still been drinking in those days, but he was never any trouble and always quiet and respectful. Held in the same regard by Gers fans as Jinky is by Celtic supporters 👍
Great players
He did miss one great , I would have had Mr Charlton on the bench !
Saw many a game with this guy at the Hawrthorns, a gorgeous player, and a great gentleman.
Great he picked George
My dad was a red (im a blue) his eyes woukd redden when he spoke about duncan
My mum is now 94. We are an east end of London family, loyal Orient fans. But my mum loved Duncan Edwards and cried like she had lost her own son when she heard the great boy had died. We named our first son Duncan and she cried again when gave her the news. The old girls got dementia now but she smiles when we talk to her about the great Duncan Edwards. God bless him.
Great story
Why don't you show the videos ?
We're seeing the end of brilliant footballers. Since spain and guardiola started dominating football they've little by little, eliminated individual prowess in favor of tactical compliance. Thats why modern football is so incredibly boring compared to past football. We will never see again players like cruyff, maradona, beckenbauer, di stefano, pelé, platini,. Now the best players in the world are mbappé and haaland, both good players who rarely show the imagination, skill and talent you'd expect from the best player in the world
I see what you're saying & you make a great point, but IMO Mbappe is a player like that with flair, skill & quality. A guy you could just give the ball to & watch him entertain, but maybe he has less freedom today to express himself fully.
could be,. but it just seems there arent entertainers anymore, just two guys on the sidelines, usually spaniards if you're watching the PL, who behave like circus clowns while the players are completely paralyzed by their instructions@@tt99football56
I agree. I'm so thankful I saw the Great George Best in his heyday, still the greatest ever for me regards skill and natural ability!
@@tt99football56 To add to that, Jude Bellingham is shaping up to be one of the greats. Perhaps it's a bit premature to put that curse on him, but barring injury (please God, don't curse him like R9) he certainly has the talent. I watched all the greats since the 60s, and only R9 was so polished at such a young age.
My late Father used to tell me as a boy just how good Edwards was, he used to say that it was difficult to explain just how good he was and my Dad knew his football. I remember watching Bryan Robson play for united and he was really on top of his game and i asked my Dad how they compared, my Dad replied that Robson was a really good player but that Edwards was on a completely different level entirely and as i knew that my Dad thought Robson was a good player his answer went some way to explaining just how good Edwards was .
Jimmy greaves aw day
Beckenbauer was superb they didn't call him the Kaiser for nothing.
Yes, totally agree with you. Beckenbauer was so majestic and one of the all-time greats.
Stevie Bull
My personal selection: Gianluigi Buffon, Paolo Maldini, Franco Baresi, Alessandro Nesta, Javier Zanetti, Fernando Redondo, Lothar Matthäus, Diego Maradona, Roberto Baggio, Lionel Messi, Ronaldo Nazario, Formation: 4-3-3.
Yes......a colossus at 17...18...Big Dunc was the man...the rest were great players too...and I agree with his team...although I would have put Dunc as the deep midfielder...and looked for a left back...I would see if there was a another right back too...but Moore and Beckenbauer were standout CHs...and the rest of the team was excellent...simply the BEST...
Pele, Marradona and Best up front, what I wouldn’t give to see that combo playing
Let me guess: Duncan Edwards, Pele, Eusabio, Franz Beckenbauer, Bobby Moore, Gordon Banks, George Best, Dennis Law, Carlos Alberto, Ray Wilson, Alfredo di Stefano
√√√√√X√XX√√√
You should of included yourself R.I.P
He knows what he's talking about !
There can't be any team without Maradona. Gratitude for picking him ❤🎉
Where is the video 📹 sir 😢
The interview was just audio
Bobby always said it and I think he could be right! De Stafano maybe was the greatest! After messi 😊
Pele 😂
What is the bet Bobby the nonce picked Munich bastards.
Five english players? You lost all credibility. If we are naming older players, no italian player. Just wasted my time.
His choices didn't I include 5 English . You knob
What price that team ?
I mat Jackie Charlton once (Queens building at Heathrow), and couldn't stop thinking if BFG was based on his life!
George was better than Duncan.
You seen both?
Bobby Charlton said Duncan was THE greatest player he had ever seen / played with or played against. That includes BEST, PELE, MARADONNA MESSI etc. So as a UTD FAN SINCE 1962 THATS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!!!
@davidburns6681 Except Bobby Charlton never played against Maradona or Messi, so your comment is entirely inaccurate
Maradona: “…when I was living in Italy they always were with the same debate: Pelé or Maradona… But when I was in Spain a few years earlier that debate didn’t exist. For the spaniards the best of all times was Alfredo Di Stefano. Period. And I think I have to agree with them” Its funny that in the interview Sir Bobby was asked: “Pelé or Maradona, who do you think was the greatest?” And the great english gentleman just answers what all the people in Spain knew without hesitation sixty or seventy years ago: the best was Di Stefano. RIP Sir Bobby Charlton. In Spain all football fans admired your wonderful way of playing football (very similar to Di Stefano, by the way) and loved you as a marvelous man
I respect the Spanish people and Bobby Charlton but Pele was a better player than Di Stefano..
Bobby C belongs in his own team.
Bobby Charlton is the greatest British player that has ever been....RIP BOBBY...
No George Best is the greatest british player! In fact the greatest ever player in the world!
The world's greatest ever player.
Sorry mate George Best is the greatest player Britain ever produced and if we're talking ability then he is as good as anybody Pele included!
@@jamesgordon2805 Well said James! George Best is the greatest ever player! No doubt!
@johnhughes8466 I have been watching football since 1966 and I have never seen anyone with the ability George Best had!
What a loss for us all.
I would have Jimmy Greaves in, from that era. A phenomenal goal scorer.
Aw day everyday twice on a Sunday first on the team sheet
