  • Football's Greatest was a TV series that started on the June 10, 2010 and finished on July 11, 2010 on Sky Sports for the World Cup. There were 26 shows in total all narrated by Richard Keys, 25 featuring one footballer for each show.
    Sir Robert "Bobby" Charlton CBE (born 11 October 1937) is an English former football player, regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of all time, and an essential member of the England team who won the World Cup and also won the Ballon d'Or for European Footballer of the Year in 1966. He played almost all of his club football at Manchester United, where he became renowned for his attacking instincts and passing abilities from midfield and his ferocious long-range shot. He was also well known for his fitness and stamina. His elder brother Jack, who was also in the World Cup-winning team, is a former defender for Leeds United and international manager.
    Born in Ashington, Northumberland, Charlton made his debut for the Manchester United first-team in 1956, and over the next two seasons gained a regular place in the team, during which time he survived the Munich air disaster of 1958 after being rescued by Harry Gregg. After helping United to win the Football League in 1965, he won a World Cup medal with England in 1966 and another Football League title with United the following year. In 1968, he captained the Manchester United team that won the European Cup, scoring two goals in the final to help his team be the first English side to win the competition. He has scored more goals for England and United than any other player. Charlton held the record for most appearances for Manchester United (758),[1] before being surpassed by Ryan Giggs.
    He was selected for four World Cups (1958, 1962, 1966, and 1970), and helped England to win the competition in 1966. At the time of his retirement from the England team in 1970, he was the nation's most capped player, having turned out 106 times at the highest level. This record has since been eclipsed by Bobby Moore, Peter Shilton and then David Beckham.
    He left Manchester United to become manager of Preston North End for the 1973--74 season.[2] He changed to player-manager the following season. He next accepted a post as a director with Wigan Athletic, then became a member of Manchester United's board of directors in 1984[3] and remains one as of May 2013.

    As comfortable on the ball as any Brazilian,
    As ferocious a shot with both feet as any striker,
    As brave as any German,
    As humble a gentleman as we will find.
    Fit as an athlete with his explosive pace.
    Strength to go with this to.
    He kept possession very well.
    Medals to show too.
    Easily the best british player ever.
    For me..... One of the best 4/5 players ever.

      Respect to him from a Liverpool fan. But he wasn't even the best United player back in the day. Not to mention that you have Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, Cruyff, Zidane, Messi, Puskas, Cristiano, Garrincha to name a few above him.

    If Ferguson says hes the greatest of all time , its true. I remember 10 years ago id got so fed up of listening to my Dad argue who was the greatest , Pele or Charlton , I had to get away . I sailed down to Antarctica to find the remotest place on Earth . I set up camp next to a large colony of Penguins and was so ready for 2 months of not hearing the debate any more . I stuck my head out of the tent and shouted as loud as I could ," now try telling me whos the best footballer ever " ,I slumped back into the tent when I heard the roar of 2000 penguins shouting "Charlton of course" . A true story ?

      Ryon Fagon Rooney played in a different era. A different ball, different pitches and much harder. He played most of his career on both flanks, in those days left and right wing. The rest of the time in midfield. He was never a striker like Rooney. Mr Rooney was ok but Charlton was different class and world class at that. Rooney never was
