The arguably greatest player in the Prem era getting told to straighten out and STFU by a not-yet-famous Xavi is shocking.

Loved that story of Messi, Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta were all desperate to get Scholes’s shirt after one of the CL finals (might have been 08 semi) so they literally drew lots to get it.

What a fucking ego boost from 4 guys like that.

Think Messi won.


Always seems Scholes was more appreciated in Spain than in England, because mouth breathers would compare goals scored and think that was definitive, and pretend Lampard and Gerrard were superior.

This is a pretty famous interview where Forlan talks super candidly about his career, including his time at United.

When asked who the best player on that team was, he says it's Scholes. And he played with a young Ronaldo, Van Nistelrooy, Beckham, Giggs, Keane, etc.

Yeah. Basically all United players/staff between about ‘96 and ‘08 would tell you he was a top 3 player of that era.

Thank god England played him on the left wing.
