this is a question to ponder on,who is the greatest english player to date in your opinion,if i'd have said british george best would have won by a mile!
so ENGLISH only i'll start with the late great bobby moore. even tho i support man utd so could ave chosen charlton , but moore in his day was peerless!

Charlton. His goalscoring record for ManU speaks for itself.

That still means you have more of a right to play for England than Phil Neville does.

Chris Waddle (during his OM years). What a player.

He's before my time, and probably before the time of everyone here...but I thought Sir Stanley Matthews was the consensus pick as the greatest English player ever?

It's incredibly difficult to name just one.
Worthy of mention for me would be:
Vivian Westwood
Stanley Matthews
Bobby Charlton
Bobby Moore
Gordon Banks
Kevin Keegan

Sir Stanley Matthews is probably the right answer.
Wasn't there a player for ManU who was killed in the 58 Munich crash who was expected to be a phenom? Duncan somethingorother?

Duncan Edwards - who may well have gone on to be one of the best of any nationality.
