just now (956+ words) George Best was as famous for his life away from the pitch as he was for his football on it Maradona good, Pele better, George Best. It's a famous saying to judge three of the best footballers in the 20th century. On 25 November, it will be 20 years since George Best passed away, and almost 60 years since he was at the peak of his powers.

EU must seize Russian assets to ‘get ticket’ to Ukraine talks – member state
