“Paul Scholes was the jewel in the crown, the first name on the teamsheet and unquestionably one of the finest England players of the age.

His only blemish, which he never really shook off, was his tackling. There was always the chance of that red mist coming down. Overall, though, Paul was a wonderful player and he's a lovely lad, a credit to his club and to himself.” FirstsAgeNamesGivenChancePlayerWonderfulTalentRedEnglandSurpriseRoundsInternationalClubsCreditLovelyAttributesCrownsFinestFabulousArenaJewelsMistLadSurprise MeTacklingScholesPaul Scholes Author:Glenn Hoddle

“We had a wonderful trip, a seven-day trip, talking and sitting in the sun and so forth [with Bernard Leach]. And as we were approaching England, Leach said, "Do you have a place to live?" And we said, "No, we didn't." We hadn't worried about that. But Bernard had just separated from his second wife, which we had not realized, and Bernard was a person who could not stand to live alone.
