A local boy from Islington who grew up watching Arsenal from the terraces, George scored the goal that completed the club's first-ever Double: a thunderous 20-yard strike deep into extra time of the 1971 FA Cup Final against Liverpool, followed by one of the most famous celebrations in the club's history: flat on his back on the Wembley turf, arms outstretched.
