Paul Scholes Jerseys

The eleven league titles are the joint-most by an English outfield player, and the 1999 and 2008 European wins are the two extremes of a career that ran from the Class of 92 to a title-winning side more than fifteen years later. He retired in 2011, came back in 2012, and finished in 2013.

He was played out of position on the left for much of that time, and the sense that England never used him properly is a standard argument about that generation. He was persuaded back for Euro 2004 but did not feature in the tournament, which ended the international chapter.

Xavi and Zinedine Zidane both named him among the best midfielders they had played against, and the phrase used most often about him is that he was the player other professionals wanted to be. He was never the headline name, which is precisely the point.

He wore 18 at United for most of his career and 8 in the earlier years, plus 8 for England. The United shirts are the deepest part of this rail; the England shirts are fewer and sell faster in small sizes.

Retro United kits from the 1990s and 2000s run smaller than modern cuts, so take the next size up if you are between two. Returns are free for 30 days and size swaps are handled the same way.
