Maybe one small regret is that I never got to play with Paul Scholes - but I was never going to leave Barcelona and he was never going to leave Manchester United.
XaviI pass and I move, I help you, I look for you, I stop, I raise my head, I look and, above all, I open up the pitch...The one who has the ball, is the master of the game...Thats the school of Joan Vilร , of Albert Benaiges, of Johan Cruijff, of Pep Guardiola
XaviIn the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen โ the most complete โ is Scholes. I have spoken with Xabi Alonso about this many times. Scholes is a spectacular player who has everything. He can play the final pass, he can score, he is strong, he never gets knocked off the ball and he doesnโt give possession away. If he had been Spanish then maybe he would have been valued more.
