1966
GORDON BANKS
There wasn't a better keeper in the world. He should get 10 out of 10, but nobody is perfect. So it's 91/2/10
GEORGE COHEN
Tackled well, used the ball well and never panicked. Part of a back four that linked up extremely well. 8/10
JACK CHARLTON
The 100 per cent stopper. Totally unyielding and very dangerous when moving up for corners. 8/10
