An absolute legend of the game, did Paisley or Shanks once describe him as the greatest English footballer ever born?

That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

RIP a true great

Shankly once said about him he would be great in any team even if he was wearing an overcoat.

Shankly was also asked how a top star compared to Finney and replied "Aye, he's as good as Tommy – but then Tommy's nearly 60 now."

Never saw the man play but if shanks thought that highly of him he must have been amazing
