- Geordie forward Peter Beardsley dribbled and shimmied his way to 175 games and 59 goals in a red shirt, winning two leagues and claiming an FA Cup along the way.
Kenny Dalglish broke what was then the British transfer record by paying Newcastle £1.9m for Beardsley's services in July 1987.
A unique talent in English football, Beardsley was a diminutive number 10 with a thunderous shot and great skill on the ball.
I had the pleasure of watching Beardsley and Barnes at villa park as a youngster..... Then out of nowhere I bumped into Peter Beardsley and his daughter at alton Towers queuing for the thunderelooper, and gave me the time of day..... A legend
He's sound as fuck
What time was it?
Class player. Very few British players with his technique and imagination.
For sure mate your are right. There is only one Peter Beardsley!!!!
@@futbolstuff8089 I met him today, absolutely delighted now
And on terrible pitches to boot. Has Messi even seen mud
@@chrismac2234 It's a misconception to say the pitches were "terrible" in the late 80's. They had gotten much better by then. The video clearly shows this. There were some that got a bit dodgy but for the most part, the pitches were actually quite good.
Absolute baller. Him, Barnes, Aldridge and Houghton were a fantastic foursome with McMahon and Nicol and Hansen behind them. One of England's great club sides
Leeds here: I think Dalglish, as manager, created the best club team/squad I think I've ever seen. I was in my early 20's and was in awe of this team of mercurial talents. The players in that squad which Dalglish melded were unbelievable. They were almost psychic in knowing what to do at such speed without looking for each other. Phenomenal: Me and my mate, both Leeds followers said that the 5-0 caning of Forest in a league game (I think) said that was the best game we'd ever seen. I couldn't identify, or single out out, any individual because, as a team, they were mesmeric. Alex Ferguson knew who he had to beat, to emulate, to be the man who created the next generation, but to me, being a football 'fan', this topped everything.
To you lucky scousers who were there, witnessing this poetry, history will be told of such genius talent and outright passion.
Football now is full of cheats; falling and collapsing at being brushed or even breathed upon. I can't even watch games any more. I don't even recognise it as a viable sporting entertainment, and when we discuss England with their current incumbent manager...well, I'd rather remember that 5-0 demolition of football purity.
What a player. I’d forgotten just how good he was. Some of those finishes were absolutely sublime..
Oh that's a lovely goal, that's a lovely goal is one of those commentating moments that will always light a flame in my soul. They were the best of times and they were the worst of times, eh.
God what a fitball club and people.
Magic No.7, what was Souness thinking in selling and he went on to play brilliant for Newcastle for years later after he left Everton. Kenny knew how to sign a great player for us.
amphilbey Souness made the same mistake Ron Atkinson did at Man United in 1983. The funny thing is Baconface tried to sign Beardsley for Man United in 1987. He definitely wasn't going back to Man United
Probably the worst clanger Souness made in charge. Clearing out players still in their prime when Liverpool still had a strong squad...
None of us understood that..he was fucking brilliant.
@@thenomad525 yeah,that and signing cloggers like Julian Dicks..
Your loss was the toons gain. Being a geordie lad little pedro is the best I've ever seen in the black and white and is my favourite player of all time. He had it all. Work rate, bags of skill, seemed to be four passes ahead of everybody, Took the piss out of Scholes when we hammered man u 5-0. Scored over 200 goals in the top flight, not bad for an ugly midget from Newcastle.
As a 12 year old Liverpool fan in 1987, these felt like they were about as golden as years you could get as a supporter. I was a good young player, played for my school etc and many of the skills I learned on the pitch came from watching Peter Beardsley and John Barnes. Great video.
You're a good lad Peter
dont like his wife
@@lfc011 Aye but I bet you like her fronties.
@@25pappy what are the odds peter kills his wife? CREEPY BASTARD
Beardsley was always one of my favs. The way he curved a run to beat the office trap and that goal against Everton, "That's a lovely goal". A genius. Very underrated IMO.
That goal against Everton showed just how much Beardsley learned from playing with Kevin Keegan
Great player, I was an Arsenal fan back in those days but had to take my hat off to how good that Liverpool team was in the eighties..
best player I've ever seen..a real complete one too..so pleased when keegan re signed him from everton for newcastle utd..was a revelation.🤗
What a fucking player, best man to pull on the black and white for me, beating even shearer absolutely superb ball control.
Why he was sold when he was is one of the great mysteries. Genius!!!!!!
Be worth a fortune now seen him play at Newcastle utd alot World class player.
What a brilliant player beardo was for Newcastle Liverpool and Everton he was magnificent
As An Evertonian Beardo was a legend for us as well.
Superb balance, magnificent close control and a blistering shot with either foot. A wonderful, wonderful footballer.
A lot of people talk shit about football this is a player beardsley was unbelievable
The George Best Of Liverpool
I thought that was John Barnes
Barnes and Beardsley were very special.
They both don't get the plaudits they deserve.
You are so right.
Best era, the peak of football
I have a feeling that Peter Beardsley had a perfectly good goal ruled out during Liverpool's 1988 FA Cup Final against Wimbledon.
If I remember correctly, Beardsley managed to stay on his feet,inspite of a foul by the Wimbledon defender, Andy Thorn,I think, and then race away to score past Wimbledon goalie, Dave Beasant,only for that thick crud of a referee,Brian Hill, to disallow the goal, and bring back the play for a Liverpool free kick
And a fine goal it was too. Delicate deft chip over the advancing Beasant, reminiscent of Dalglish's winner vs Bruges ten years earlier. Referee Hill knew he cocked up.
You are correct I remember that very well. Cheating Ref. Lots of respect for P.B
You are right,it was a perfectly good goal.Then McMahon got clattered by that fucking chav Jones and it was then that it dawned on me that it wasn't going to be our day.Thirty years on,it still enrages me when I think about that final.If any team deserved a league and cup double it was that 87-88 team.
Yes it was perfectly legit mate
@@smashdalde9713 Everyone forgets Macca smashed him back about 10m later Macca was scared of no one i remember him fronting Keane n Ince together when he went to City
Can you imagine these guys in the European cup. Surely another .
Brilliant player not only scored a lot of goals but a brilliant creative link up player
Beardsley and Houghton very similar players like two little terriers always on the attack .
Not talked about enough, top class and consistent player
He never stops running,I think he was born with an extra lung,had taken ballet lessons in the womb and as he entered this world passed football masterclass.Look he weaved pass players in virtual quagmires. That's why I would rate him able Messi etc.
Very much so.
Fantastic player one of the best 👍
A fantastic brain very very good on the ball specially outside the box he was maaaagnificent ..
If barnes and beardsley hadn't arrived in 1987 then no way they wudda won 88 and 90 title NO WAY ..
One of the best at using open space. Beautiful to watch.
My favourite player bar none.
Great little player hard as nails never injured
The Rocky Balboa of English soccer. Rival fans & opposing players laughed when they saw him & heard him talk. But they underestimated him at their own peril. Because with a ball at his feet Beardsley was seriously SERIOUSLY good & very dangerous
Thankyou Peter.
Liverpool legend
One of the top players that has graced the planet btw
Best player I've ever seen in a black and white shirt.
What a player he was, so clever, the bergkamp of his generation
@@seanfitzgerald8575 Lol he didn't even play a single game for you mancs you dumbass. He's a Liverpool legend
I found on a UA-cam video clip of Peter Beardsley that he was regarded as being England's answer to Lionel Messi. I can understand why.
First of all, both players had a low centre of gravity, they both had great footwork and dribbling skills.
Both were great passers of the ball, and when it came to shooting, both of them needed little back lift when it came to unleashing a shot at goal.
Beardsley would, however, shade it for me, in that he was a better two footed player than Messi, whilst Messi was practically reliant on his left foot
Messi is the Argentinian Beardsley.
Beardsley ! Oh that’s a lovely goal
- that’s a lovely goal
Privileged to watch him as a Vancouver Whitecap....we could tell he was something special.
He was a Brilliant wee player and i was in the kop the day he scored the hattrick against man United.
Dirty mancs got what they deserved that day haha
Very gifted lad
lumpy lumpy lovely chicken
Barnes to McMahon (running on), to Beardsley. Lethal on the left side of pitch. Would definitely have won another European cup if there was no ban.
I know this is Beardsley's video but seriously - how good was John Barnes?
Barnes was the diamond that made the difference, making Liverpool that 0.1 per cent better than the rest.
Agree. I was counting the number of lay offs Barnes gave for Beardsleys goals. Peter was still fantastic all the same.
Barnes was top of the pile
Barnes was the best player in the country and possibly the whole world, and Beardsley was the second-best.
Played with peter at school and jrn level
His style of play was quite similar to Dalglish, especially some of his finishes.
Almost reminds me of Diogo Jota watching these. Fantastic finishes!
Diaz reminds me of Beardsley the way he runs back and forth linking the defence and attack. Just a shame he isn't as good a finisher.
He always reminds me of Ball Boy from The Beano.
I'm a Newcastle lad and I watched Pedro from the stands. Better than Gazza and the equal of Messi. Maradonna rated him in the top 10 ever. I agree
Personally I think he was as good as George best
And Garrincha! and Pele. Those four were the best at the game.
He was definetly more intelligent. Best just used to dribble all the time to make himself look good
Easily.

Before me time but what a player from the arl videos I watched as a kid. Souness selling him was a joke, especially to Everton.
He is English version of Raul...
Has accurate ability to goal...maybe give him a pass he handle the rest...
Could have played for Liverpool for another 6/7 years. So stupid to let him go. Souness, I think.
He was at Man United
Yeah in 1982 but didn't make an appearance.
@@lfcspectre4335 Came on as a sub once. Only player to ever play for both Manchester and Liverpool clubs.
@@georgemorley1029 Wrong Phil Chisnall was first to move from Man Utd to Liverpool in 1964 for £25,000 fee
@@lfcspectre4335 You don't understand - I'm not saying he was the only player to play for both Man Utd and Liverpool, plenty have done that (I mean, Michael Owen for one), Beardsley played for Man Utd AND Man City and Liverpool AND Everton! Can you name me another player who's done that?
@@georgemorley1029 Paul Ince, but I'm talking about players who have moved opposite direction than like Owen or Ince for example that both moved to their rivals few years later after leaving their clubs.
Be wort about 90 million these days.
120 mil for Barnes!
The waffle about players these days grealish 100 million how much would this guy cost.?
He is surely a “raumdeuteur”
He was that, but also a lot more. And Barnes was a classic winger and an inside forward and a raumdeuter and a midfield playmaker.
นายจะอยู่ในใจ..เราเสมอ
Better than Messi
5:14 brooo😂
2:30
Now get home ya doyle and make yer wife some poachies
Top player was Beardsley, big mistake by Sounsess getting rid of him. End of LFCs dominance, thankfully!!!!!Didnt they replace him with Mark Walters lol!!!!!!!!
Dean Saunders. :)
No the thinking was Barnes would replace him but they didnt realise diggers pace had gone from injury Waltersn Saunders wouldve combined well with Beardo
Luis Saurez was ALMOST as good as Peter Beardsley...
Beardsley: bully apparently.
Only to defenders and goalkeepers.
Beardsley's a star - the music was crap.
The best looking racist in the world
Great player, I was an Arsenal fan back in those days but had to take my hat off to how good that Liverpool team was in the eighties..
