The midfielder was noted for his intelligent play, making the number 10 shirt his own at the Boleyn Ground, and his style exemplified the traditional pass and move style that West Ham had been associated with during the late sixties and early seventies. Twice an FA Cup winner with the Hammers in 1975 and 1980, Brooking39s attacking prowess and cultured passing skills also made him one of the most popular players the club had ever seen. The individual highlight of Brooking39s career was scoring the winning goal in the 1980 FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium with a tremendous header in the Hammers39 1 0 win over Arsenal a result made even more impressive by the fact that West Ham was a Second Division side at the time.

Since retiring from the game Brooking has enjoyed a successful career as a BBC pundit, as caretaker manager of West Ham and as the FA39s Director of Football Development. He was knighted for his services to sport in 2004.
