Legend is used too lightly these days, but nobody would argue it with regard to Sir Bobby. I have been a Man Utd fan for 56 years and as a kid I lived through and saw the Best, Law & Charlton years. At the time I thought it was just 'normal football', but looking back it was nigh on magical.
💯…..he transcended the game,Bob’s name synonymous with football excellence
I became a Manchester United fan when I was 11 years old in Iraq in the 80’s. I just loved the team without knowing about its great history and legends then. I remember when the British army was in our city after the Iraq War 2003, I used to speak with the British soldiers from Manchester city about different players and legends of Manchester team.

Nice one brother
The younger brother seems a good bloke. His accent is pure Nurthumbrian
There will never be another. God bless him. I am am 71 , born in east London, my mother adored Duncan Edwards and Sir Bobby. My boys are named after them. To be named after such legends is an honour for them and they know it. RIP a gentlemen, an icon and the greatest player this country of ours ever produced.
Nice one mate, got me in the feels naming your sons in there names. Letting them know why they have there names, is top drawer dad stuff. All the best to you all.
A great player, a true gentleman and a wonderful ambassador for his club and country. RIP Sir Bobby Charlton. You will never be forgotten.
I did not know that he had passed away last month! RIP!

our own galactico for sure
Part of United passed with Sir Bobby.Things will never be the same again.RIP.Legend,Icon and gentleman😢
As a lifelong Manchester City fan I have to say Sir Bobby was an absolute legend, not only a truly magnificent football player but a real gentleman as well. Respect!
At 57.11, there is the difference between the Colossus that was Bobby Charlton, and today's so called greats...."I never had an injury, I'm 73 and still have all my cartilage"...Because he was that good, nobody could catch him to give him an injury....Never saw him dive, try blag a penalty, roll around on the floor, foul other players, the man is a living legend. Remember this too, Bobby campaigned for better pay for pro players, to the amount of £25 a week, and when the national wage for the public sector was £18 a week. Today the public wage average is around £350, but what do footballers get, how about £550,000 a week. Absolutely ridiculous, like Bobby once said, "All I do is kick a ball around for 90 minutes twice a week. I'd be happy to do it for free".... You wouldn't get one single player today, say that, and that's a shame. Today's game is a poor watered down version of the game from Bobby's era. You'll never ever see the likes of Charlton, Violet, Law, Best, Edwards, Mathews, Milburn, Finney, and others from that time again. Today's show ponies and ballerinas couldn't lace up Charlton's boots.
I recall working as a cleaner at the Metro centre circa 2010 and seeing Bobby turn up in a nice but not overly expensive car to do a book signing .He entered via the back door to to little fuss.Flash back a few months prior and we have Katy Price surrounded by security ,hangers on and the place is packed out.Speaks volumes about our values.But I doubt this truly great man would have any other way!
Nowadays players only want money
I know it was 4yrs ago,but it makes no difference if it was 40 yrs ago..All.of what u said,is absolutely true..And after the Bosman ruling in 1995 it all went Pear shaped&got f##ked up..And it makes me cringe when they ask could these players Charlton,Law,Best(And Man City had Bell,Lee and Summerby)play and were they good enough to be as successful in this so called 'Modern game'? When the really pertinent question is,could today's players have played and coped with playing back in Bobby's day? And the answer (& it doesn't require a great deal of thought) is no!..
And I no longer live in the UK(London &I'm long suffering Spurs fan&they ask the same question about Jimmy Greaves,which is so ridiculous it's beyond belief!).And to be honest my interest in football is mostly for yrs gone by,today's BS naturally fails to excite for any real length!!
Absolutely bang how times have changed.
Simply the best, will never be bettered. Absolute legend.
His honesty on the field puts todays players to shame. Greatest ever RIP.
Too easy to forget the absolute GOAT status of the man. His humble nature makes you forget his unparalleled achievements
A gentleman , a legend and a truly perfect footballer , only Pele can compare with this man. His career is remarkable , the air crash , and all the things he won makes his whole life like a boy comic book story . One day they will make a film of his life but even that could never truly reflect the drama this man has provided us with . Sir Bobby Charlton is as famous as the very game itself
Gone but never will be forgotten. R.I.P - Legend.

Not as good as Duncan Edwards
@@cliveuuking4602 Maybe he wasn’t. But then, how many people alive ever saw Duncan play? We don’t even have a lot in the way of footage either, televised sport still being in its infancy in 1958.
Also, we have no way of knowing that if Duncan had lived whether or not he would have maintained his early level of form over an entire career; players often lose form after bad injuries or because of personal problems in their life.
What we can say of Bobby is that eight years after he made his England debut, he was still good enough to play for his country and win a World Cup winners medal, one of only 11 Englishmen ever to play in a final. He maintained form and fitness for a very long time and was a great ambassador for both club and country. As such, Bobby deserves his plaudits.
I’m not claiming that Bobby was the greatest ever. But by common consent amongst a wide section of his fellow pro’s, as well as assent from the public, in this country and others, he is recognised as one of our most distinguished footballers. And rightly so.
And that is not meant as a detriment to Duncan or any other player.
Sir Bobby was England's greatest player, and on the top tier of all time world greats. An amazing athlete who glided across the pitch, and surely no player in history has had such a lethal long shot with either foot. What an ambassador he was on and off the field, and he stands alongside Pele as a worldwide icon of the game. A true national treasure.
I love bobby Charlton. Simple as that. What a gentleman too. This country along with booby Moore can be proud of true world class players
One of the Greatest player ever played the beautiful game...
Man Utd and England LEGEND...
Proud to say my great aunt was the midwife who brought all three Charlton boys into the world.
As a Leeds Utd fan I salute you Sir Bobby RIP 😢
Thank you Kevin respect from a MU fan.(ps I worked at Stansted when Leeds plane nearly crashed) would not wish that on anyone.
Both of his goals in the European Cup final are exceptionally good finishes. Probably England's greatest ever footballer.
For sure
Duncan Edwards according to Sir Bobby
Sir Bobby Charlton Mr Man United from a Millwall fan who loves football and respect Sir Bobby Charlton rest in peace Gone But Not Forgotten no way from South East London
As a Liverpool supporter, I can honestly say Bobby Charlton was one the worlds best players at that time, and from all accounts I’ve heard and read a throughly nice man RESPECT
Brilliant story about a true gentleman and footballing legend….RIP Bobby……😢
Here after the sad loss of Sir Bobby Charlton, fantastic documentary fascinating insight. RIP Sir Bobby much respect to a United legend from a Tottenham season ticket holder.
bobby charlton a legend never will be forgiven or evan replaced to this day
He was my idol of the day bar none .... Bobby is Manchester United, he is the benchmark of what is required, always was, still is ...............I loved you Bobby! Thanks for being there !
What a great all round man 👏🏼👏🏼 role model on an off the pitch Rest In peace Sir Bobby Charlton thank you for everything ⚽️⚽️
It’s a real shame that Duncan Edwards never go to show world his talent, no one should forget that when you take off the shirt there is a human being underneath,real people with families and tragedies like Munich should not be forgotten and definitely not mocked.
Well said……only the brain dead mock
So honoured to have met the best footballer ever to grace the wonderful game
What a wonderful story and wonderful gentleman. Pure class and humility.
Lucky enough to see him play. And meet him personally.A true gentleman in every sense. R.I.P. Sir Bobby.❤
Love seeing this tribute and the old players of my early days. Booby Charlton, a National Icon xx
RIP Sir Bobby ❤
Just watched this. Bobbys honesty shines through. You can feel every word every thought, so humble cant fail to admire him, gives so much praise to everyone else, listening to him and his brother Jackie brings tears to my eyes. They are so modest, i never realised his power with both feet, fantastic
I was a young teenager when Bobby Charlton was in his pomp . No TV coverage to speak of. Black and white match of the day started in around 1965. And, although I've never been a serious Man U fan,to be fair,they were the only game in town. Best, Charlton and law used to add 10,000 to the gates home gates when they rolled up. In all my years watching football I've never ever come across a player with a powerful booming shot in both feet. Never. He was deceptively quick. Great acceleration. He'd have had no problem adapting to the high pressing mid field role of today. In his day,he was supremely fit. With Best Charlton and law it was a golden era, not just for man U, but they cast their stardust over the whole game in this country. And,in all his time , amazingly,he was never seriously injured. What a legecy of spectacular, brilliant goals for club and country he's bequeathed us. Absolutely brilliant.
How the hell has this only 18 thousand views ? Tremendous watch
God bless you Bobby, thanks for the memories, world class player and man, RIP ..
football is full of rivalry and hatred and not many rise above this,,
rest in piece sir bob,,,, england will never forget you,,
🤡
Soccer is full of boring pointless minutes wasted attempting to get one goal in a match! Pointless sport!
God Bless Sir Bobby Charlton, the greatest midfielder of all time.
do u believe on God?

The man..The magic..The legend... Bless ya Bobby..🙏
I was just a kid at the time when I heard about the Munich air disaster on the radio and was shocked.
The tragic news about Manchester United left its mark.
Many years later I was in the Royal Navy at HMS Dryad in the Hills behind Portsmouth doing a stint between seagoing ships and the Phys Ed guy got access to tickets for the European Cup Final to be played at Wembley. I got two tickets and went with my friend Harry from Manchester! Are you still around Harry? What a match!
Sir Bobby Charlton is indeed a legend.
I only just found out today that he passed away on October 21st, 2023.
RIP Sir Bobby!
I went to a game at Stoke with my dad and Uncle when Liverpool was in the 2nd division I'm not sure of the year, I was in short trousers (now 77). My dad was a Red ( A blot on the family). On the way home we had to change trains at Crewe, at about 1-o-clock in the morning, Imagine the surprise for me as a kid, on the same platform waiting for the Manchester connection was Sir Bobby Charlton, Eddy Hopkinson (Sheff Utd ) & Ronnie Clayton (Blackburn Rovers) who spent about 1/2 hour talking to my dad & uncle with me just standing with my gob hanging in wonderment. I seem to remember they were coming back from an England game. Imagine today Players of that stature standing on a platform in Crewe at One thirty in the morning waiting for a train
We all know how beautifull the game of football is. Lovers of the game can easily name a couple of players that are the epitamy of quality and beauty. The one name that surely is on that list is of sir Bobby Charlton. I am too young to have seen him play the game, but looking at these footages I am convinced that he is among the best of the game, ever!!! What amazes me the most is his space awareness on the pitch, where to be at the right moment, furthermore his left and right footed shot power, these goals are simply the best distance goals, touching the back of the net in a straight line!!!
An absolute shining star in the sky... RIP Sir Bobby, a true legend and gentleman.
A true gentleman, a wonderful footballer, and he played for love of the game - we were so lucky to have him
RIP Sir Bobby. A great man on the pitch and off it. Manchester United's most important player.
a true gentleman and a manchester united legend rip sir bobby
A wonderful human being🥰
RIP Legend
Never a Man U fan by any stretch of the imagination BUT this is Bobby Charlton, a true gentleman and master of the beautiful game.
the grace of his running shift in weight moving through 60 yards and leaving all players in his wake ....then the SHOT !
*3:21** RIP Gordon Banks*
Poor lad
Great doc. Great man. Utd fans have been so lucky over the years to witness such greatness .
Amazing footballing family…..Bobs goal & iconic celebration against Mexico ❤ & respect ✊ to one of the greatest footballers in history
Saying, if you didn’t go you could miss Denis Law scoring a hat trick, George Best turning ppl inside out. And I was known to hit the odd ball from outside the box. 😂 The most hilarious yet humble understatement. R.I.P. Sir Bobby.
Another Geordie star Newcastle didnt bother with weve missed out on some young talent in the past
How nice he was. I’m American so I had never heard of him
The very finest football docu' I've ever seen.
Brought a tear to my eye and made me smile so much❤
Thanks for showing it.
Arguably the greatest english player of all time winner of the bal,on dor the world cup ,the european cup is testimony enough , but to achieve these feats after the trauma of the munich disaster is the real cementing of his legend.
Sir Bobby Charlton.
Gentleman, Sportsman, Legend.
Rest In Peace old lad, and thank you. ⚽️
Britain's finest ❤ great player great man sir Bobby brings tears to your eyes 💯👏👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent tribute
Bobby loved and told me and Jackie loved the pigeons junior.
One of my favourites - RIP Sir Bobby 🌹💐
R I P sir Bobby with Love àlways❤❤❤
R.I.P. Bobby Charlton
The greatest English footballer we ever had. Rest in peace Sir Bobby Charlton.
Amazing man, Brilliant player !!!.
Loved watching him play
Simply awesome.
If the three lions on an England shirt represented English international footballers throughout our footballing history, Sir Bobby would be my first choice. A Lion King. RIP
I am 80 years old thank you sir bobby Charlton
Absolute legend,and humble
A true players player. Thankyou. RIP
He had his own guardian angel.
He was my idol when I started to play at the age of 7
That video should own the internet, what a man!
Superb.
RIP LEGEND😢😢....FOREVER UNITED❤❤❤
Everything good about football personified in this man.
Thanks 👌
People forget that these players kicked an heavy leather ball and played in heavey leather boots. To play today and still not get half as good as Bobby Charleton they need a lighter ball and lightweight boots. But the players of those days where real footballers with their hearts in the game and not in the pay packet. Players like this are as rare as dinosaur teeth.
What a video 💚💛
Gentleman of football
R I P Bobby and Thanks..
We'll not see he's like again
brilliantx
I loved Bobby.😢
As a Leeds fan. WOW!
The photo on the cover was taken in 1820 when he was very very young
RIP - Bobby Sir!!
The M. United Icon. ❤
The Alf that said give yhe ball to Bobby was Sir Alf Ramsey England manager in 1966 .
♥️ Red to the heart ❤️✌️🙏✌️
He played as player manager for Preston at 56 yrs old
If you don't fill up watching this you are beyond help
Een prachtige speler van man united
Duncan Edwards was as good it's a bloody shame that he died in Munich. What a team my father was a football coach, but a better sprinter, he rated the Man U team as the best he had ever seen!
Good bobi chartron
GOD REST HIS SOUL STRIKE SOME UP IN HEAVEN AND I AM A SCOT 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
