You'll love it like :) Aye, think it might have been released not long after Italia 90. Some of the talking might even have been filmed at it - he has an Italia 90 t'er on at one point and Gazza looks 'poolside' :)

 

Seeing (what isn't anywhere near all) of his immense career consolidated like that really brings home (pun intended) what a genius he was.

Even some of his stuff from Vancouver is sensational really . Astonishing it took (relatively) so long for him to be taken by a big club . Youknow how much trickier it is playing on that early day astroturf that's really fast and needs better control. He had the lot. Get onto BigfatRon trying to cover his arse for not signing him too !

Ye not kidding, George Best made it look easy too, and the highest accolade you can pay Peter is he deserved to be spoken of in the same breath.

 

If he had've been better looking and played for someone like AC Milan or Real Madrid, he'd be a worldwide icon up there with Ruud Gullit now imo.

I'm sure there's a Best tribute quote to him on there and yeah I think it's spot on comparing the two

and I totally agree that he didn't really get the acclaim he deserved for whatever reason.

Dance Peter, dance !

 

Al tell y what too - these 'modern day' bigtime helmets won't have anything NEAR a Greatest Hits dvd like his when they're finished .

A true one-off .

I think Bergkamp and Henry probably deserved one, but I know he's achieved more and is/was rated as the third best player in the world, but Rooney isn't as good as Beardsley was.

Rooney isn't a fifth the player Beardsley was.

 

And the first four pages of this thread are a fucking holocaust.

Shameless self plug. ;)

Cracking vid, mate. It was hard watching him score those goals for Liverpool at the time as he should've been ours but his talent deserved better than anything we and especially our board could offer him. Sad but true.
