Denis Law died yesterday.
What can you say about the only Scottish footballer ever to win the Ballon d’Or? Simpy magnificent.
He is Scotland’s all time top goalscorer, a record held jointly with Kenny Dalglish.
He played club football for Huddersfield Town, Manchester City, Torino, Manchester United and City again.
He once scored six goals in an FA Cup tie for Manchester City against Luton Town. Sadly these goals do not appear on his record as the game was abandoned with twenty minutes left to play. City lost the rearranged game 3-1! Of course Denis got their goal.
It was with Manchester United that he made his greatest mark in club football, in that great triumvirate of Best, Law and Charlton.
Denis Law: 24/2/1940 – 17/1/2025. So it goes.
