I saw Dunc, when I was 10,my first visit to Villa Park Oct or Nov 1956, Utd beating Villa 3-1. My outstanding memory, as a child, was how big he was, the other 21 players were mere mortals. Many years later I met a guy who went to school with Dunc, he simply said..."Duncan Edwards, you never saw him without a ball at his feet, even going to or from school" It's not a question of how good he was but more to the point how good would he have been? No-one knows the answer.

My Idol. Never saw him play (born 1976) but became obsessed with his legend. Lets all help keep his name alive now that his parents are both gone,as his mum wanted his name to live on. I wish I could have seen him play.I always try and visit the grave when near Dudley (please do,leave a scarf,flowers,etc in respect) People I know actually have tears in their eyes when they describe just how good. TOO good for this earth wasn't he?

As a 17 year old boy, I have only seen grainy footage of Duncan Edwards. But it was clear from that this was someone special. My personal hero is Eric Cantona, and by all accounts, Edwards is the only player to better him. Rest In Peace.

I'm City through and through, but have always said Duncan Edwards was the greatest English player bar none.

As a fourteen year old captured by the magic of United, I never got to see Duncan play; but I know he was a phenomenal player; United's original king. What a pity the world was deprived of his extraordinary talent; the babes planted the seeds that made united grow into the best team in the world and they will always look over old trafford and keep the boys safe. They were red devils through and through who were called to be angels at such a young age and I hope they're playing in heaven. They are legends; their stories are woven into the fabric of United, a club steeped in history and legacy, and we will never forget them.

Perhaps the best MU player ever. Saw him play at Hillsborough just prior to Munich, myself just a little schoolboy in short pants.
