Denis Law was one of the greatest British footballers of all time, arguably Scotland’s finest ever player, and a man whose very name conjured notions of skill, flair and toughness. Born during the privations of the Second World War, he went on to be one of the great figures in the vibrant, successful British game of the 1960s.
Law, who died on Friday at the age of 84, was the last surviving member of the great Trinity of Old Trafford — along with George Best and Bobby Charlton — although injury robbed Law of a place on the night of their crowning glory, the 1968 European Cup final at Wembley.
