    Surely he would come into the top 50 players of all time.

    European footballer of the year, Pretty much level with Kenny Dalglish as Scotlands best player of all time, European cup winner and one of Man Uniteds best players ever.

    Also scored that relegated Utd I think.

    I have no problem with Dennis Law being in there, but, if we're including him then surely Rush deserves a place aswell?

    Afraid not.

    If you let someone like Law in, there are LOADS of players that need to be included.

    Hes probably not in the top 15 strikers of all time.

    some players may also be added because they are deemed LEGENDS, not just because they were better players than others.

    Denis Law is the reason a certain Dutchman wanted to call his son Denis too.

    When he got to the cityhall the civil servant claimed that Denis was spelled Dennis. Being Dutch and thus arrogant and pigheaded the civil servant made sure that the "proper" spelling made it's way to the final document...

    So that makes mr. Law a legend in my book !

    I watched Denis Law on tv growing up if that counts. Him and Jimmy Greaves were poachers and new where to be 90% of the time. To me Jimmy had the edge I maybe bais. When asked who he thought was the best player of all time he said George Best.........www.wyverntheatre.org.uk/pr-productions_details.asp?pid=488

    For me yes. The three at United were quite simply the best forward line to ever play in England. I could watch the footage over and over again.
