Noel Gallagher praises George Best

Oasis's Noel Gallagher has paid tribute to the late Manchester United footballer George Best, describing him as transcending football.

Manchester City fan Noel Gallagher has paid tribute to late Manchester United legend George Best. The Oasis man says: "Georgie transcended football. He was called the fifth Beatle and he looked cool as fuck."

Gallagher, who was apparently friendly with the footballer said: "He owned a night club and a clothes shop, drove a Ferrari and he shagged Miss World. The only thing he didn't do in his life that was cool was play music, and he probably would have been good at that too."
