Why you all going with Macari?:whistling:

Buchan was a much greater influence on the team than Luigi was.

Because in all honesty my knowledge if that decade isn't great and Macari's the one if seen do alot of great stuff.

Fair enough. Read up on Buchan though. He was one of the classiest defenders ever and he did a lot for United. :thumbsup:

As Richie says, that Decade seems to be abit dark. I don't know too much about it.

Buchan was indeed one of the most underated players ever , he should have got many more caps than he did , back in the day the song for him was "fonz is cool buchan is cooler" a great captain

 

[RedForceRising]

80s Bryan Robson
90s Cantona and Giggs
00s RVN and Scholes

 

[haggler]

Considering I was born in the 80s I'd be an idiot
if I were to talk about players from the 60s and 70s.

i know a lot about the two world wars the titanic disaster etc etc etc ---its called education and research . scott was bang on by saying not a lot of footage from 50s and before . i was in nappies in the sixties yet know charlton best law et al were great players .

 

[haggler]

40s --- johhny carey
50s --- duncan edwards
60s --- bobby charlton
70s ----steve coppell
80s ---- robbo
90s ----- keano
00s----- scholes/giggs/rio/neville

stevie coppell was god to me along with pancho in the mid seventies as they played united style football

 

[Stephen]

60's - Charlton (Best)
70's - Buchan (Coppell)
80's - Robson (Whiteside)
90's - Giggs (Scholes)
00's - Ronaldo (Ruud)

 

[TheManc]

For what its worth, Paddy Crerrarnd has sad that one time he asked Sir Matt who was his greatest ever player. His answer? Dennis Law.

 

[forzaunited]

Research will tell you facts, like teamsheets and results
but if I asked you whether Thomas Andrewson was a better
soldier than Michele Di Romildo you wouldn't know how to
answer, as you weren't there.

He said you can learn about players of the 60s through books
and talking to people, so via a 3rd person. That is not
enough to allow you to judge people from the 60s.

If I went to Denis Law and said "Best was better than you", he'd
be well within his right to turn round and say "well how the ****
do you know?".

 

[Stephen]

So who was better George Best or Tom Smith who had one game for Crewe Alexandra?

 

[forzaunited]

whos tom smith?

 

[Jazz 16]

60's - Charlton (Best)
70's - Buchan (Coppell)
80's - Robson (Whiteside)
90's - Giggs (Scholes)
00's - Ronaldo (Ruud)

Nice list Stee. Pretty similar to mine. No Keane though???
Good shout on Whiteside.
Id like to add Paul McGrath to the equation for the 80's decade.
(I know his career was cut short etc... and he was a messer, but damn was he good)

And Irish

I think Keane was amazing, but I had to fit in Scholes and Giggs.

Actually Scholes instead of Ruud, and Keano in there

 

[Check the Milkman]

60's- Best
70's Macari
80's Robson
90's Keane
00's Scholesy
