He was also part of the team that won the club’s first FA Cup in 1965 and reach the European Cup Winners’ Cup final in 1966.Shankly once said of Thompson: “He could run forever, but more importantly in football he could run with the ball – probably the hardest thing to do.“He could run every minute of every game, every week, every year better than anybody else.“His work-rate was outstanding, his fitness unequalled, his balance like a ballet dancer. I have no hesitation in placing Peter up among the all-time greats – alongside such players as Tom Finney, Stanley Matthews and George Best.”2
