Duncan Edwards was only 21 when he died, and had played only 151 games for Manchester United and 18 for England. And yet no English player ever had greater accolades:

Sir Bobby Charlton: ‘He was the best player I ever saw or am likely to see.’

Sir Bobby Robson: ‘Surely he would have gone on to be one of the greatest players the world has ever seen.’

Sir Matt Busby: ‘If ever there was a player who could be called a one man team, that man was Duncan Edwards.’

Terry Venables: ‘He was my hero and my inspiration.’

Jimmy Armfield: ‘Edwards was the best footballer in Britain at the time, a big powerful man, but more than that, he was technically gifted and had a great shot – we’ve not had a player like him in my lifetime.’
