Yes great players around them days. Peter Lorimer was one of a kind. RIP Peter 🕯 What a team that Leeds team. they could give it and take it and play as well.
One of my heroes when I was growing up he was part of a great Leeds side he would be worth millions today I would have loved him in Glasgow rangers side today rest in peace legend
Great to see the great Chelsea players of that 60s 70s side they had some great battles but respected each other and became friends later in life, 2 of the greatest sides in English football when football was football ☮️❤️
Rest in Peace Peter. Leeds have one hell of a team in Heaven. And thanks for this reminder of a classic era of football. What a shot Peter had, couldn't even see some of these shots. Goalies must have thought, who are we playing today, Leeds, Oh God, Lorimer, I'll get my coat.
My poor eyeballs straining to see several of those in the black-and-white footage before they appeared as if by magic in the back of the net. His cannonball shot was a thing of legend when I first watched football in the 70s. RIP.
As a Manchester United fan, I must say he lit up many a Match of the Day programme in my youth. Bobby Charlton was surely a great admirer of his shooting power.
I'm a Manchester United fan of 53 years but boy could this guy hit a ball. Brilliant player. He scored spectacular goals with a ball that isn't like the beach balls the have today.
As a young Leeds fan in the 60/70's I always wanted to see Peter score...what skill he had with a football. And his goals are still memorable today. RIP Peter Lorimer.
Rest in Peace Peter. You were my childhood hero and favourite player to a football obsessed 9 to 12 year old lad. Thanks for the memories and great goals. 😢💪🏻
RIP Peter Lorimer. Remember seeing him on Match of The Day as a wee kid and admiring his playing style and ferocious right boot. Have a beer upstairs with Jack, Norman, Trevor and the boys.
Leeds were a favourite team for a lot of Scots laddies in the late 60's and 70's due to the number of Anglos in their team, even more so for fellow Dundonians because of Peter Lorimer, the boy did good, may he rest in peace.
I remember Scotland naming 7 leeds players in a game. Harvey in goal Bremner McQueen Jordan Lorimer E Gray and F Gray some team some fantastic players from Scotland . Makes you wonder what happened
I watched him and this great Leeds side, and never realised how great he was, what a player what a ball striker. Lots of this great side have passed recently, They were one of the best teams in history. Comparable with any of today's top teams.
massive influence as a kid watching that Leeds team, how many of us tried to shoot as hard as he did when playing on the street, along with Duncan Mckenzie and Tony Currie he was a boyhood hero.
What a player. What a person. Grew up watching that Leeds side and supported them ever since. Thanks for all those memories. RIP Peter Lorimer. A Leeds legend who will never be forgotten.
I can remember, as if it was only yesterday, watching my first football match on TV in 1973 at the age of 9 in New Zealand. It was a team in white against a team in red and white stripes. The team in white seemed pretty good and I clearly remember them losing 1-0. There was a guy in the white team with a really hard shot and I thought he’d scored, but it hit the bar. Then the replay showed the keeper saved it before hitting the bar. The player in white was Peter Lorimer (Leeds) the keeper was Jim Montgomery (Sunderland). It was the 1973 FA Cup final. For the next few weeks we would play football in our back yard, I was always Peter Lorimer and practiced shooting as hard as I could. When it was my turn in goal I was Jim Montgomery. RIP Peter Lorimer, you were the main reason I kicked a ball around our back yard for years and have given me so many great memories.
I used to go with my dad to the home games in the 60s. He used to skin himself to take me but what great memories I have of him and the great leeds side. Peter was every boys favourite we all wanted to be "hotshot ' like him. RIP to a legend
By rights, it should be 239 goals for Leeds, because that strike against Bayern Munich in the 1975 European Cup Final was a good goal: and everyone knew it.
I used to support Leeds United in the 60's and 70's, in the great days before football became big business. Peter Lorimer was a hugely talented player who could hit accurate volleys from a distance. One thing that's not mentioned however is that he could bend the ball not only sideways, which was one of his recognised trademarks, but also vertically, which caught many goalkeepers out. Very unusual. Thanks for posting this.
Just think what power he would get out of these lighter footballs today? Incredible power. RIP Lash. 3 out of 4 of my favourite players of that great team have passed in the last year. Keep going Eddie don't dare join them yet.
Wow what a top 20. I'd forgotten how good Peter Lorimer was. A goal that should be in there was the one for Leeds Utd in the 1975 European Cup Final vs Bayern Munich that was incorrectly ruled out for offside!
Phenonemal striker of the ball I doubt anyone in the history of the game scored so many from long shots. Present day footballers would air-shot most of those volleys. Everton fan saying thanks for the memories Peter Lorimer
RIP Peter Lorimer. You were one of the greatest strikers of the ball of ALLtime.Maybe or maybe not Kaddish should be said for you. But I will ,and God will understand.
So sad to see that all the greats are passing away think there has been 3 or 4 this year alone and Gordon McQueen having dementia..I used to work next to Peters pub the commercial used to see him every Friday, John Charles was always lent against the bar with schofield and helary Hanley, great pub great times early 90s, used to see Peter regular on a Saturday at Elland rd...Everyone loved Peter he was the star ⭐️ of that great Leeds side...R.I.P❤️
All top three were amazing strikes. If he had one shot back in his career I think it would be in the 1973 FA Cup final. I always think that if he had kept his shot on the ground, Jim Montgomery wouldn’t have been able to save it. Definitely one of the best strikers of the ball in his era. You don’t see long range accuracy in the Premier League these days.
I remember other kids pretending to be Peter in the playground as a kid. It’s taken me several decades to find out why but finally I’ve been educated. So many excellent goals the final one as good as any I’ve ever seen.
Thanks for all of the memories Peter. Our best ever team.
Fly high Peter and Rest in peace. What a player.
Yes great players around them days. Peter Lorimer was one of a kind. RIP Peter 🕯 What a team that Leeds team.
they could give it and take it and play as well.
My fellow class mate at the Stobbie in Dundee, even as a teenager his football skills were a head and shoulders above the rest of us.
RIP Peter.
Very underrated player...one of Scotlands best ever ...never mentioned in the who was the greatest...always Law and Dalglish etc but hes up there
Sad to hear this! Rest in peace, Peter. Legendary player.
One of my heroes when I was growing up he was part of a great Leeds side he would be worth millions today I would have loved him in Glasgow rangers side today rest in peace legend

Totally agree. Will never forget or get over the injustice and f that night. RIP Peter
240 ,what about the Chelsea SF 67?."You'd have to look through the rule book backwards to find a reason why ".
Yes that was a goal.
Total corruption in the whole match.
Think it was common place in those days. We suffered more than most.
R.I.P. Sir, it was a pleasure to have seen you play
How old are you may I ask Sir?
@@ralteh3390 58
@@paulhaycock4775 Oh really? Thanks for responding Sir
What a goal!
He's only gone and done a "Lorimer"!
The crowd roars...
It's a goal!...
Every schoolyard game in the 70's
Thankyou sir, Thankyou
RIP Peter - a great player.....so sad that those times are past......
Rest in peace Peter, Legendary player in a Legendary team
Thank you for all the good times Lorimer. LEEDS LEGEND . RIP
What a player! What a team! MOT
That’s my grandad
Please tell your grandad he was a famous Leeds player in Hong Kong in the early 70's
you should be very proud of him he's a footballing legend
Your name will always be held in the highest reagrd by all who knew of him.
Favourite Leeds player of all time.
Thoughts are with you and the rest of your family. He brought pleasure to me and countless others during his career. RIP Peter.
I mind playing football as a wee lad in the 70s evertime I took a shot at goal i shouted Lorimer thanks for the memories.. RIP Peter
Stunning striker of the ball ..from a Rioch Rams fan
What an amazing compilation. Magnificent goals from a magnificent player. R.I.P.
So many great strikes. Our thoughts with Peter and family.
Great striker of the ball, so many peoples hero.
Forgot how good he was. Actually stands the test of time. First memories watching Leeds date from 1971 which was towards the end, but wow what a side
I am and always was a Huddersfield Town fan, but Peter Lorimer was a fantastic player. R I P Peter.
The hardest and fastest shot back then...love it
What a magnificent player those shots are incredible another great player from my youth passed away.. Rip.. Peter
I see that Don Revie is building his Leeds United Heaven 11 , RIP Mr Lorimer xxx
absolute heaven!
By God, he had some thunder in his boots! Nobody ever hit the ball as hard or as sweetly. And he was bloody skillful too.

Everton fan saying thanks for the memories Peter Lorimer
Every kid in the playground played as Peter at some point, he truly inspired a generation, best striker of a ball ever.
thats right... shouts of "Lorimer!!" followed by a pelting ball. great days
RIP Peter. Always remembered 👏👏👏
Rest in Peace Peter, what a player! 90 miles an hour x
Imagine what he could have done with the modern footballs, probably the best long range striker that’s ever played in England.
107 :)
RIP Peter, you will forever be a Star ⭐️
I was too young but Peter Lorimer was more than a fantastic player! RIP Peter.
Spectacular pace and accuracy, with the heavier ball than today. World class
My favourite player as a boy, rest in peace Mr Peter Lorimer Xx 90mph
RIP my childhood hero and thanks for those wonderful 70's era . From Mauritius
Hot shot Lorimer is a Leeds legend, and its no surprise, he could score from anywhere ! x
Sad to hear he has died, some spectacular goals here that will ensure his place as one of the all time greats
So happy to see number 10...I thought I'd dreamed that, I've not seen it for years!
Scored 238 goals for Leeds making him their highest scorer.
class player - Rest easy Lash
God speed Mr Lorimer a full recovery.
RIP Peter Lorimer. You were one of the greatest strikers of the ball of ALLtime.Maybe
or maybe not Kaddish should be said for you. But I will ,and God will understand.
Boyhood hero 😢..
RIP Peter 🏴💛💙💛🏴
My Favourite player of the time .
Tried to emulate and capture the atmosphere of his goals...
I was only 5 years old.
9 and 8 are superb strikes, 3 very impressive and the top two reminiscent of Tony Yeboah's famous two strikes!
He didn't do tap ins! brilliant player.
My favourite player growing up... How did the last one not win goal of the season?
If I remember correctly it came second in goal of the season, but only third in goal of the month. Work that one out!
My child hood hero. What a striker of a football.
Arguably the purist striker of a ball ever, the third last one in this video is probably the hardest strike I have ever seen.
Dynamic..... No one purer.
I thought the 3rd last was going to be the best until I saw number 1 lol
@@monsiursnowman66 It is similar to Gascoigne's famous goal but from further out
Il calciatore dal tiro più potente dalla distanza, un grandissimo!
Great memories great times and great player
RIP HOT SHOT LORIMER
If there is a Premier League in Heaven, Peter will be in the starting 11 of one of the top teams. RIP
R.I.P LEGEND
Agree with your number 1 choice. I was at Elland Road to see it, way back in 1971.
David Tipping before you turned into a fish. These things happen, tragic really
I think during my time growing up he was one of my favourite's because of his powerful shooting & he was right footed;-) R.I.P Hotshot
Boy,could that man wallop a football!
As a kid in the 70's watching Peter, what a hard shot he was felt sorry for the goalkeepers trying to stop them shots. RIP
Pure class.
You just dont see goals like this anymore fantastic player. Wish Man Utd had him
HOT SHOT.!!!!!!! 💙💛
Legend
All great goals but that last one, wow!
Amazing player, and remember the ball & boots were much heavier than todays, and the pitches back then were nothing like they play on now.
So sad to see that all the greats are passing away think there has been 3 or 4 this year alone and Gordon McQueen having dementia..I used to work next to Peters pub the commercial used to see him every Friday, John Charles was always lent against the bar with schofield and helary Hanley, great pub great times early 90s, used to see Peter regular on a Saturday at Elland rd...Everyone loved Peter he was the star ⭐️ of that great Leeds side...R.I.P❤️
A tragic loss. RIP Peter 😢
All top three were amazing strikes. If he had one shot back in his career I think it would be in the 1973 FA Cup final. I always think that if he had kept his shot on the ground, Jim Montgomery wouldn’t have been able to save it. Definitely one of the best strikers of the ball in his era.

Along with George Best, Peter Lorimer was my favourite player of the seventies. They used to say he had the hardest shot in football.
