Often considered one of the greatest strikers to have ever played for Manchester United, Law is a legend of the game in every sense. The former Scottish footballer ranks third among the all-time top scorers for Manchester United with 237 goals, and possesses one of the best goals to game ratios in the history of Manchester United.

An out and out striker, Law always found a way to put the ball in the back of the net. The Scottish forward formed a famous trio alongside George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton - the 'United Trinity' as they were famously known.

Law was named as the best player in the world in 1964, and to this date remains the only Scottish player to have ever won the prestigious Ballon d'Or.

Law was a vital factor in United's rise back to the top as the majestic striker top-scored for the Red Devils in the 1964-65 season with 29 goals. It was a season United won, their first victory since the Munich air disaster.
