@@thutrinh6446 Indeed he did, but only because he was played at LW/LM in the National team to make way to Gerrard and Lampard, he felt usless out on the left! Did right thing, otherwise he would just be a scapegoat!
Great player but never fulfilled his potential at international level. The really great players did. He had the ability but I'm think he lacked a bit mentally. He had 10 times the ability of Beckham but not the self belief.
Well said, people slag off the scousers but I remember back in the seventies we were stuck in the Liverpool end at the cup final, as soon as the whistle went they all said, well done, proper fans .
He's scored with hand, his chest, his knee, his heel, his head, volleys, half-volleys, chips, long-range screamers, scissor kicks, curlers, tap-ins, you name it.
Paul Scholes, the greatest and still somewhat underrated midfielder the premier league has seen. Xavi and Iniesta looked up to him and named him the best midfielder they’ve ever seen. Credit to him. Lee the Arsenal fan 👏👏👏
499 games 107 goals and 54 assists compared to Gerrards 504 games 121 goals and 70 assists. You also have to consider that scholes was in a much stronger team than Gerrard. Idk how you can call him a "complete cm" when he was woeful at defending
I remember getting up Early in the morning on sundays just to saw ManU games. I was a real fan . I miss those time as much I miss Paul Scholes . I'm Uruguayan
Probably our greatest ever player. Part of many different United teams, scored goals from midfield, picked out unbelievable passes. England's greatest midfielder. LEGEND!!!
I love Scholesy, I really do, but best player ever? Certainly streets ahead in the Lampard & Gerrard conversation, but any one of us that saw Sir Bobby and Best play would say that Scholes has to make way for them.
Keith Moon I have to agree with Rhys he’s our greatest. Bobby is closest as his legacy is undeniable and for sheer longevity but I just feel Scholes had continued success in around 6 different teams Dictated the game... but we’re lucky to have the players we had to choose from
@@pro_1201 fact really is that Lampard, Scholes, Gerrard were all amazingly talented players... as a Utd fan Scholes would have to be one of the best CM we've ever had. PL has had some great players but that mid nineties - mid 00's were great as i recall.
Paul Scholes, definitely one of the best long range shooters ever. I so miss goals like this. Players nowadays don't have the guts or skills to take chances on long range shots.
rooney also used to smash some corkers if only the united team of the day was all english we would have won some world cups haha. that squad will always be 10/10, you couldnt even fault anyone in the squad at all, even the subs were reliable and unreal, solskjaer the absolute pocket assassin.
Yup, Paul Scholes is one of the best Man United of all-time.Please kindly visit and leave comments on my channel where there's many interesting Man United videos that you might never seen before. Anyway, all the best for you!
The man was special!! He’s arguably the best central midfielder the premier league has ever seen!! Yes that is with Gerrard and Lampard, scholes was better than them both. Not by massive margins but for me he’s the best
Couldn't pull off a clean tackle to save his life, but every Man Utd fan has a very special place in their heart for Paul Scholes. The fire that kept the midfield lit, we've never managed to replace him because he's irreplaceable!
He is the best man utd player ive ever seen in utd.. He was the maestro.. The simplicity of his footbal.. Of his passes.. All his goals... We will never found a such player as him in utd
That's the perfect way to describe his play..his vision and ball control made it look so simple. Like everybody could do it but can't. Mark of a true genius.
When I was in my 20s and 30s, we had Paul Scholes and Roy Keane in midfield and it was brilliant. In today's 4-3-3 system, I often think about what it would have been like with those 2 legends playing alongside Carrick [hugely underrated player]. Then I compare those 3 with what we have today. Oh well, Scholes was simply a superb player. So was Keane.
Best CAM I’ve ever seen. Had the privilege of seeing him play several times.....the man was a magician, a genius! Not bad for a short, asthmatic ginger nut! Favourite player 👍
He played different positions throughout his career. Attacking Midfield / Second Striker 1994 - 1997 Central Midfield 1997 - 2001 Attacking Midfield 2001 - 2004 Central Midfield (Regista role) 2005 - 2011
My all time fav..king scholes "so how does it feel to be best player in world " i dont know ask scholes"zidane and xavi...pep "one player u wish u coached ohh thats easy paul scholes.... legend ...💯
I've meet him few years ago. Unfortunately because of other huge crowded of United fans, the photo result of my photo selfie with him is very bad. Hope someday I could meet and take picture with him again.
Just watched him play in SoccerAid 2021 charity game. His first touch is still sublime, he takes it in his stride and on the turn, then his second touch is an effortless pass, into the stride of a teammate. Just class. He gets the team 30 yards up the pitch in 2 touches.
What a skill! Fabulous, fabulous goal. I wish he could come back and play for Man U again. And never retire! The most amazing attribute of Scholes, for me, is keeping low-key. So talented. Incredible footballer and human being.👏👏👏👏👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
I remember when he retired for first time, I had predicted that MU would lose the tittle. It turned out to be right. Then Fergie took him in again in following season.
Thank you for showing me and reminding me of my favourite goal by. take a bow son. PAUL SCHOLES which was of course number 1 the Beckham corner and scholsy smashing the net ! any defender would be brave to try and get in the way of that monster of a volley. LIVING LEGEND!
Goal 6. 3:20 Even the Middlesbrough fans around me stood up and applauded! Respect. It was nice I could do the same - normally I kept my gob shut when forced to take a spare ticket with the opposition
As a united fan, watching those goals now is what makes me miss the united of old. Nobody has ever scored those volleys than Paul Scholes..ever. What a player and a team! Our current team with those expensive salaries doesn’t even come close. They should watch utube from our ex players and be inspired. Goosebumps indeed.

Great ability, amazing shots, perfect passes. My favorite football player of all time. A perfect attacking midfielder. It's not a zidane or gerrard. Number 1 is always Scholes. For me..
And never employed an agent for contracts negotiation. Take Rashford now and doesn’t want to sign but wait for a better offer. Saka from arsenal seem to be of the same personality as Scholes..not greedy, considering.
As beautiful as his goals were, his main quality was his ability to dictate the tempo of the game, calming things down or speeding it up, was always a joy to watch

Tackling ?
He tackles like a bull 50/50 lol
Left foot, right foot
and just 1 or 2 penalties...
you forgot left foot.
That last goal - the way he didn’t even use his arms to steady himself - just nonchalantly volleys it in like it’s nothing! Pure class.
indeed. it looked like he was having a pint, got up kicked the ball with minimum effort and went back to finishing his pint
now i know why that kick look so weird dang what a level of mastery indeed
Better than Zidane’s volley imo
Like he's playing down the park 👌
Ave it!
If he'd born in Italy, or brazil or Spain everyone would've agreed hes in the top 10 players of the past 30 years

Yup, all those years ago was a great era of Man United under Sir Alex and class of 92..
Also George best
Im telling ya, he doesnt score normal goals
