So sad to hear this. Amazing player. The most powerful long shot I've ever seen. Loved watching old matches of him, Best, Law, Stiles, Crerand and Foulkes. RIP

Awful awful news. A legend of the game and a gentleman to boot. A second big figure in the club that we lost in recent weeks. Hopefully we hold a show of appreciation before Sheffield United today.

Really sad news.

I'm too young to have seen him play, but seeing the joy on his face in Moscow will live with me forever.

More than a legend, truly part of the fabric of this club.

RIP, one of the few who drove United towards greatness. The last years of his life were tough by all accounts, he can rest now.

RIP to the greatest Manchester United player ever. Been a pretty awful start to the season on and off the pitch. Sigh.

So sad.

It's hard in words to portray how much he means to United. A legend, a rock and an amazing footballer who epitomised Manchester United and it's rise from it's darkest hour.

Rest in peace

United's greatest player.

Glad he lived a long fulfilled life, that's all you can ask for. Condolences to the family. I'm sure we will mark his passing at the next home game.
