over 600 appearances in that time?the fourth highest number of appearances by any player for the club. He also represented the England national team for seven years, winning 66 caps
that�included two World Cup and two European Cup campaigns. Throughout this time, Scholes has always played a decisive role in his teams' fortunes. As well as the technical brilliance that

sport. In an age of overpaid, workaday players, Scholes has become an icon of professionalism and club loyalty, admired by fans everywhere. Now, for the first time, Paul Scholes shares his
story?from his beginnings at United under the tutelage of Sir Alex Ferguson as part of the "golden" youth team, to the treble-winning season and twice capturing European Cup glory, the
