Default Dennis Viollet Documentary

This is a trailer for a documentary about one of the truly great players to play for Utd down through the decades, Dennis Viollet

He's a very underrated player amongst Utd fans as he never seems to get mentioned when discussing our greatest ever players considering he still holds the Utd record for the most league goals in a season, 32 in only 36 games

I also think he held the record for most goals by an English player in the European Cup from the mid 50s until Andy Cole went past him in the very late 90s
He got 13 European Cup goals in just 12 games
I can't think of an English player until Andy Cole who got that many goals in the European Cup but I might be wrong

Appearances: 293
Goals: 179

great stuff again Ziggers

When you look at his record and think of him and Tommy Taylor together and a (albeit young) player like Charlton who couldn't even get a regular game, backed by big Dunc, Eddie Colman etc..... team average age of 22 with two consecutive titles under their belt...........:shakehead:
