Watched him for years as a United regular. Truly the best midfielder I have ever seen. You watch him off the ball. He is looking to see where everybody is, or isn't, so that when the ball gets to him, he doesnt need time to think. He just does it. This is not a guy who wears a £260,000 watch or drives a Lamborghini. To Scholesy, football is what matters, not being a celebrity. Will we ever see anybody else like him?
When he went back to united out of retirement, he was allegedly spotted in a cheap high street sports store buying a 30.00 pair of boots. The fame never changed him at all, testament to his strength of character
Scholes was one of a kind But don't compare any midfielder to Gerrard People speak about Totti 's loyalty but between 2000 to 2016 Liverpool was a nothing if you take Gerrard out Gerrard was Loyal like Totti Passer like Scholes Scorer like Lampard Control like Xavi Iq like Iniesta Free-kick and Crosser like Beckham Strength like Keane Positioning like Alonso Defending like Gattuso Was more Versatile than Gullit was more Clutch than Zidane had Dribbling like that of Zico was a Better Assist maker than Kaka and above All the Greatest Captain of all Time He truly was the greatest English Footballer Otherwise why would people even bring him in conversation when he didn't even win the Premier League And I think everyone knows about Istanbul 2006
Yes but the greats who commented on him are the people you listen too.Zidane, Henry,Bergkkamp,iniesta,xavi,Messi, Ronaldo,Pep,Real Madrid, Barcelona.Iniesta and Messi used to watch vids of scholes during training.I rest my case.Complete footballer!
As a Liverpool supporter we acknowledge class. Scholes was world class for a decade plus. A joy to watch to his craft. Even if it usually involved heartache for my Reds in those days.
I was lucky enough to watch him a couple of times, it was an honour. He was just out of this world, light years ahead of everyone else. I miss that genius more than any other. Thankyou Scholesy for the memories.
When Zizou, Pep, Rooney, Ronaldo, Henry, Bergkamp, Xavi rate him as they do, there’s really no one who comes close. Scholes is the greatest PL midfielder of all time. top 3: Scholes Gerrard De Bruyne
Gary Neville interviewed him in his ‘Overlap’ series and it’s a brilliant episode. He revealed a lot about his personality and his family circumstances but it was also very interesting how he personally understood how his talent related to the other greats of the era and the British media’s portrayal of him.
If you want to know why Maradona is the greatest footballer of all time..ask those who have played football...if you want to know why scholes is the best footballer, ask those who have played the game of football😊

Imagine if R9 and paul scholes playing on same team during their prime💥🔥🔥🔥
The word legend is throw about so easily these days. Not with Paul Scholes
Rooney was a beast with crazy physicality and work rated, if I had 10 Rooneys and a goal keeper I win the league even today
I think I cracked the code Rooney way a Ronaldo/scholes fusion, he is the best United player ever

Now they've started labeling KDB as all time best midfielder in the premier league. How funny it sounds. Scholes was a gem
My favourite footballer of all time
Pirlo or Scholes?
soy arquero, siempre quue me tocaba jugar contra jugadores de buena pegada estilo paul scholes. era emocionante, me imagino a estos verlos cara a cara
Thank you Paul Scholes i watched all of your games and loved them all you are the GOAT 🙏🏻🙏🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Me was incredible as well, so gifted. A pity his career didn’t last as long as Scholesy’s did.
No further comments or tributes required. His fellow professionals have described his talents perfectly.
This man made me a manu fan thanks ❤❤❤❤❤
Listen to this.They are the people who know.Not us.Messi xavi iniesta used to watch videos of Paul scholes.
Iniesta named his son Paolo after Scholes ❤
Paul I Miss U Playing ❤
Absolutely the best midfielder the premiership has ever had, by far, extraordinary
Did Zidane actually say that?
If England managers built a team around him they would have won a World Cup.
Ginger knob.
Jealous scoucer I bet
How this man was never footballer of the year is beyond me 😕
Xavi . Now here is a man worthy of a golden globe .
Yes but the greats who commented on him are the people you listen too.Zidane, Henry,Bergkkamp,iniesta,xavi,Messi, Ronaldo,Pep,Real Madrid, Barcelona.Iniesta and Messi used to watch vids of scholes during training.I rest my case.Complete footballer!
Figos comment is brilliant "after the game he dissapears"
Scholes was born in the wrong country. imagine if he was spanish or German or Dutch..

Well said
Yet there's people who started watching football in 2005 + who clown on Scholes. Clueless.
Beautiful gesture. He is by far my favorite player of all time. He is the perfect representation of Fergie's Man U.
All this is true but he could not tackle for shit.....
Did you read the comments or just looked at the pictures
Yes he could find a video and you'll see
Wow to read such high praise from so many people who are themselves legends is just incredible.
I was lucky enough to watch him a couple of times, it was an honour. He was just out of this world, light years ahead of everyone else. I miss that genius more than any other. Thankyou Scholesy for the memories.
not fit to lace Mrk Noble's shoes
Jealous much
BS
But so miserable
(‘What is it like being the best midfielder in the world?’) ‘Ask Paul Scholes.’ (Zinedine Zidane)

Not in same league as big stevie g...
Stevie G almost single handedly dragged a mediocre Liverpool side to glory. At the time, Scholes was a decent cog in a much better Man Utd side.
@@Coxy_Wrecked totally agree 👍....
Jealous much, let's compare medals
@t2twanks I'm talking about God given talent...Actually Gazza was the top man...

As a gooner i would of loved Scholes playing for us, one of the best England midfielders ever, i loved watching him play, a true legend.
Absolutely love Scholes. Me favourite ever player.
Best cm of all time.
One of my favorite players (Villa fan)
Rooney was the most honest among all
If you want to know why Maradona is the greatest footballer of all time..ask those who have played football...if you want to know why scholes is the best footballer, ask those who have played the game of football😊
As a Dane, I started following United in 92/93 when Schmeichel joined, but I quickly fell in love with Scholesy and he became my favorite player ever!
He can be best CM like xavi.. very2 admire for mind the game. Simple efficient
He reminds of kante but in a passing way
Can we have one of these tribute videos for Phil Jones please 😅
