George Best: Los Angeles Aztecs and San Jose Earthquakes
Best had an interesting time in America, spending two brief spells with the Los Angeles Aztecs, (separated by two seasons in Fulham) and a year playing for San Jose Earthquakes, both indoors and outdoors. After leaving Manchester United in 1974, Best had represented four clubs, including loans spells at Jewish Guild and Dunstable Town, by the time he signed for the Aztecs two years later. However, if plummeting down the leagues had knocked his confidence, it didn't show on the pitch. Best played for the Aztects 55 times in total and scored 27 goals and his record for the Earthquakes was even more remarkable, while in the great outdoors he scored 28 goals in 56 games and when the football moved indoors he scored 25 in 16.
