Great point! Do you think he would have ended up rebelling against ferguson the great disciplinarian? Gazza was a big character with a very magnetic persona
True but McGrath was a lot older and suffered some bad injuries that probably didn't help his mental health. All ifs and buts, however you just can't help but think 'what if' with Gazza
sliding doors....'possibly' Gazza's life would have gone a lesser destructive route had he allowed Sir Alex to take him under his wing. Alas, not to be....incredible talent
Absolutely nothing would have changed the way Gazza was; absolutely irrelevant he went to Spurs instead of United. His, inevitable path to self destruction was always ingrained as part of his inner fibre.
That's not true. Some small things can make the biggest changes. If he saw sir Alex as a father figure and hisnteammates as brothers, maybe he would have been better
Remi Moses was a good player haven't heard his name in years my grandad used to say he was good but injuries messed with his career and made him miss getting his first England cap.
Robson was a heavy drinker but he wasn’t an alcoholic football at that time was one huge pissup London was the wrong place and venables didn’t try and curb the jack the lad attitude Furgerson was also known for how much he protected his players especially from the press that would have been a huge benefit for Gazza Robson and Bruce hopefully would have calmed his getting steaming and disappearing to Marbella side and helped keep him on the strait and narrow he needed someone who could lay down the law and protect him he would have had that in Fergie Robson Bruce and Charlton
Can you imagine how powerful ManU would’ve been with Gazza? As well as the class of 92! And I think with the guidance of Ferguson, Messi and Ronaldo would have an unbeatable benchbark to surpass!
Even as a Spurs fan and watching him for 4/5 years he should have gone under Fergusons wing at United not the bright lights of London and the leaches who knows things may still have turned out as they did but he could have been one of their all time greats.
Gascoigne 100% should’ve signed with UTD… and I’m a Liverpool supporter. He NEEDED those stable guys around who would’ve known when to let him vent and when to reign him in. He could’ve had it so much better with those fellas around him. He ended up surrounded by good players but not as strong characters as at UTD. (Remember who I support when I say that 😂😅)
No question he was a good player but as with a lot of these players they have a self destruct button. He was a gifted player and yes i think if he was under sir Alex's wing he would of tamed him to be one of the all time great like sir Bobby.
One of the biggest mistakes in not only gazzas career but maybe also life, sir Alex would’ve take care of him and got him along the right lines, sadly gazzas parents wanted him to buy a house and a sunbed for his sister.
Yeah but Robbo would have made sure he got home at night and not ended up on a.plane to Marbella or some other stupid shit, his drinking wasn't the problem, his excesses were, but Robbo and Whiteside would have kept them in check.
There were also some heavy drinkers and party guys in those United sides. Bryan Robson couldn't stop Gazza enjoying himself on England duty. Much resolved to Sir Alex, but we have no idea what would have happened had he gone to United. Look at Whiteside, look at Sharpie...all wunderkinds of their time.

Do you think he would have ended up rebelling against ferguson the great disciplinarian? Gazza was a big character with a very magnetic persona
Big fergie fan but he couldn’t handle McGrath, doubt Gaz would have been different
True but McGrath was a lot older and suffered some bad injuries that probably didn't help his mental health. All ifs and buts, however you just can't help but think 'what if' with Gazza
Shearer is heartbroken right now
Sir alex, the godfather of the English game.
He bossed the Scottish game too
sliding doors....'possibly' Gazza's life would have gone a lesser destructive route had he allowed Sir Alex to take him under his wing. Alas, not to be....incredible talent
Played his best football at the FAMOUS GLASGOW RANGERS 🔴⚪️🔵🙏🏻
who?
@@kcb8130 they're one of The Power Rangers!🙄
@@kcb8130 they play in a place called Scotland, England's biggest county.

🤣🤣🤣👍
Robson loved the sauce more than anyone
Imagine being gazza hearing the best british manager ever saying you were the one that got away. A compliment and curse at the same time
Absolutely nothing would have changed the way Gazza was; absolutely irrelevant he went to Spurs instead of United. His, inevitable path to self destruction was always ingrained as part of his inner fibre.
Most definitely nobody can change us when that spiritual malady is inside you only God can 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
People forget Gascoigne lost his brother who he was close with and never got to see the success his brother had.
Your lack of hope for people to change and your ungodly syntax are related lmao
@@zbou23 God loves You 🙏🏻
That's not true. Some small things can make the biggest changes. If he saw sir Alex as a father figure and hisnteammates as brothers, maybe he would have been better
He should never have gone to the capital.
Destroyed him.
Could you imagine Gazza winding up Cantona lol
2 of the most naturally talent ya will ever see
@@cousinleigh1470 definitely 👍
If only gazza signed for united when he had the chance.
Remi Moses was a good player haven't heard his name in years my grandad used to say he was good but injuries messed with his career and made him miss getting his first England cap.
My heart breaks ❤
FERGUSON pissed again on the whiskey 🙄🤦♂️
if Gazza had gone to UTD he would have grown up & been phenomenal & won everything.
Two of those three are almost certainly correct. One of them is almost certainly wrong. He would NEVER have grown up.
I DONT THINK ROBSON WOULD HAVE LOOKED AFTER HIM, HES HAD HIS OWN PROBLEMS OFF THE FIELD.
Robson was a heavy drinker but he wasn’t an alcoholic football at that time was one huge pissup London was the wrong place and venables didn’t try and curb the jack the lad attitude
Furgerson was also known for how much he protected his players especially from the press that would have been a huge benefit for Gazza Robson and Bruce hopefully would have calmed his getting steaming and disappearing to Marbella side and helped keep him on the strait and narrow he needed someone who could lay down the law and protect him he would have had that in Fergie Robson Bruce and Charlton
Nice one Captain Capslock
Can you imagine how powerful ManU would’ve been with Gazza? As well as the class of 92!
And I think with the guidance of Ferguson, Messi and Ronaldo would have an unbeatable benchbark to surpass!
Luv Gaza he wud have won the lot fergi wud have looked out for him 🇾🇪🇾🇪✌️🔰🔰
Even as a Spurs fan and watching him for 4/5 years he should have gone under Fergusons wing at United not the bright lights of London and the leaches who knows things may still have turned out as they did but he could have been one of their all time greats.
London social and nightlife ruined him
Gascoigne 100% should’ve signed with UTD… and I’m a Liverpool supporter.
He NEEDED those stable guys around who would’ve known when to let him vent and when to reign him in. He could’ve had it so much better with those fellas around him. He ended up surrounded by good players but not as strong characters as at UTD. (Remember who I support when I say that 😂😅)
No question he was a good player but as with a lot of these players they have a self destruct button. He was a gifted player and yes i think if he was under sir Alex's wing he would of tamed him to be one of the all time great like sir Bobby.
One of the biggest mistakes in not only gazzas career but maybe also life, sir Alex would’ve take care of him and got him along the right lines, sadly gazzas parents wanted him to buy a house and a sunbed for his sister.
why
We had people there that spoke the lingo 😂
Ferguson talking nonsense. Robson would have been his drinking partner! No way he would have been able to curb his drinking/behaviour.
Yeah but Robbo would have made sure he got home at night and not ended up on a.plane to Marbella or some other stupid shit, his drinking wasn't the problem, his excesses were, but Robbo and Whiteside would have kept them in check.
Tottenham destroyed Gascoigne's life
Yeah thanks Tottenham another life your club has ruined 😠
There were also some heavy drinkers and party guys in those United sides. Bryan Robson couldn't stop Gazza enjoying himself on England duty. Much resolved to Sir Alex, but we have no idea what would have happened had he gone to United. Look at Whiteside, look at Sharpie...all wunderkinds of their time.
