I don't even like United, but Scholes was such a quality player.
As England fan though, it's a shame he was always wasted on the left side of the midfield when he played for the NT. They should have built the side around him instead of insisting that Gerrard and Lampard MUST PLAY TOGETHER AT THE EXPENSE OF THE WHOLE TEAM OR THE WORLD WILL EXPLODE, a tactic that clearly failed miserably when Scholes could have done their jobs far better. Just saying.
Had he got the tackling down properly, he'd have been the complete package, but even without, he was admittedly quite fantastic.
