Manchester United's Best Portrayed as Jesus

george best manchester united

From the Telegraph UK:
Michael Browne's creation has the late Manchester United player, [George Best] famous for his drinking and womanising as well as his skill as a footballer, as a Christ-like figure standing outside the gates of Heaven.

The artist has previously courted controversy with a painting showing former Manchester United player Eric Cantona as Christ and an image of current players Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney standing shoulder to shoulder with Winston Churchill.
Chris Edmundson, the Bishop of Bolton, protested. Of course, he did.
