A gong for Greaves

There are calls for Jimmy to be awarded some sort of honour, and who could disagree with that. A hundred goals before he was twenty, a debut at 17. If you have the talent, age is immaterial. At United, youngsters are lucky if they get a hundred minutes by 20.

Trying to get players with little talent onto the pitch does not work. I suspect the few players who want to be footballers wont come to Cambridge.

As for Greaves, this man had more talent than Messi or Ronaldo. He was streets ahead of Ronaldo, who just has pace, and could finish. Along with Hoddle, this man was probably the best player of all time. I include Eusebio and Pele.

Talent dripped from him, he made things happen. If we had a hall of fame, he and Hoddle would be top.

With Beck third.
