OMG Duncan McKenzie, Elland Road was amazing when he got the ball, we just knew something exciting was going to happen. His autograph is one of my most treasured possessions. Those were the days. I met most of the Leeds team back then but never Duncan :(
-
In my opinion McKenzie was the most gifted player to play for Leeds, and that's saying something when you consider that Eddie Gray was in the same team.

there was only one king and he never played for everton or leeds, the magnificent Denis Law, he,s the greatest inside forward that the world has ever seen, my grandad saw all the greats of yesteryear, Dean, Liddell, Tommy Taylor,lofthouse., even great overseas forwards, De Stefano, Puskas etc, but he said he,d never seen anybody as good as Denis Law, Bill Shankly said he was the best player outside of his beloved Liverpool, praise indeed.

"Duncan , Duncan , born is the king of City Ground Duncan, duncan. " FOREST fans would sing this. Still remember him putting Man City to the sword on his own in the F.A CUP when we were in div. 2. forest4 man city 1. 1974

This is such an odd pairing! McKenzie was a gifted but inconsistent cult mid-70's icon, like Charlie George or Alan Hudson... while Denis (in the early 1960's) was one of the most complete inside forwards in British soccer history!

@XxAKILLxX thats a myth his goal never sent them down
-
You would think that the players would require more ballhandling skill today than back then. Unfortunately we never see players excell in the little things like we did then.

nice backheel denis he he!

Notice how Law didn't celebrate the goal? That goal sent United down to Division two.
These two were true artists and they played on pitches which were totally inferior to the carpets they play on today....it's incredible watching the classic matches on TV where they played in snow and on very hard bumpy pitches....Ronaldo wouldn't stand a chance really, especially against Chopper Harris or Hunter or Dave Mackay

Football back then was a real "man's game" - now you can't touch a player for fear of fouling!

Yep agree a great player and I am a Utd fan. Like wingers/ dribblers and players of that era such as McKenzie, Gordon Hill, Steve Copell. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Sorry don't have any other video clips of Duncan.

hehe, I just met him in a hotel, i had my everton shirt on which got us talking. then he got this foam football from a little kid and started juggling the ball on his head and doing kick ups, it was completely surreal, and he's really nimble for a guy of 59, he's a great guy too!
