Before Beckham, before the Treble, before the Premiership, he was the first football superstar. From the life of world famous footballer, George Best, comes a tale spanning five decades of one man's inner conflict. The externals of his sporting genius, football fame, celebrity status, problems with alcohol and gambling, the women in his life and the tyranny of trying to stay the 'best'. Scoring goals and scoring with women, Best is the story of a genius who pushed the boundaries of his sport, his relationships and of life's excesses.
