"What was the 10%?" Bilic "The games". Brilliant!
Shithousery at its best. :D
Paul "There were no coffee machines" Scholes LMAO
On the other hand, yes clubs have financial problems but this is the 21st century, not the 1960s. You'd at least expect the basics, like hot water.
😂😂😂
Lucky it wasn't Phil Neville that was in charge. He'd have been in a state if there was no coffee machines
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Yeah, but his bad tackles were badder than Gerrard's!!!"
;)
We can really see what was afoot in Oldham at the time. Nail biting story from Scholes there
McManaman really tried to help him save face. Good fella macca
Can we please take a moment to appreciate billic’s comment on 10% being the games 🤣🤣🤣
He’s more coaching material. Dealing with guys one to one and imparting his knowledge on the training field. Huge potential as a coach with his understanding of the game, just not the head man.
agreed. would love to see him as a coach on the england squad.
I think he's a great pundit but yeah coaching is probably better for him than management.
This guy, Henry and Gary Neville always railed against managers when they thought they weren't doing a good job
Little did they know😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
absulutelty agreed everytime wenger lost, henry says he has to go 😂😂 what happen to him.
Sky is a joke.
While Stevie G stays quite
Henry joined a sinking ship. Neville tried his best but wasn't great. Scholes is arrogant and far from management material.
@@user-mm5uv2gg8b Monaco are doing much better nowadays
I'm a Liverpool fan. I have had the pleasure of watching Scholes all his playing career. Great player! I have the upmost respect for him to go down to Div 2 and want to help the club where he was from. He did this from the heart not for money or fame. Big up to the man.

Paul Scholes couldn't last a month at Oldham was criticising serial winner José Mourinho (27 major trophies ) I do wonder what Paul has to say about Man Utd performance today, 18 shots conceded. West Ham 56% possession .. is this the United way ? Oldham four games unbeaten since Scholes left! Interesting.
Lol so before he tried management it would have been fine but since he didn't succeed at his first attempt he can't be a pundit anymore ?
Ps Jose might win trophies but his style is embarrassing. Sure the United board are clueless but Jose isn't an entertainer . I fell asleep during some of the matches, look forward to a match the whole week to fall asleep during it :)
Don't worry buddy Jose's time is over his tactics are in the past he is dead in modern day football don't know any team that would pick him up he should stay in punditry now
Let’s pop José in charge of league 2 struggling Oldham mid season shall we
scholes left when he knew it wasnt working instead of ruining teams until hes sacked like mourinho did to get his big pay outs
Peter Clarke getting a mention here, great stuff as he's become one the most consistent players in the division- now playing at Tranmere
alot of great football players simply are not manager material.
It honestly wasn’t his fault. I think he could have been great. He needed more time and it didn’t help when we have a clown of an owner.

As Napoleon said, ‘The most important character of a good soldier, is the ability to endure discomfort, second is courage....’ No hot water? Boring watching matches? No grit. Certainly not management material. Life is easier in the studio.
11 premier league and 2 champions league trophies yeah what a bottler
@@-BuddyGuy He didn't say Scholes was not player material, Adjetey point is Scholes is not Management Material, And I agree.
@@73reider Yeah why don't we focus on that instead of the "no grit" or "life is easier" statements which I was obviously rebuking. Moron.
@@-BuddyGuy - calm down freak
I also found that strange that he should find it boring watching matches which featured teams that his club would have to face. No wonder they only won one out of the seven. He must have known the size of the task he was facing before taken the job on... Not like owning a level seven team with your mates, bringing in ringers who are a grade above the level your team is playing at and then climbing the leagues. Other club managers will know the names of every opposition player, what their physical and mental strengths and weaknesses are... and exploit these facts as best they can...
What a player Peter Clarke is. Legend.
Prefer the days when Scholes was a player and didnt talk
Yup mofo has turned into a gossip queen.
Just shut up.
He knows absolutely nothing as a pundit. Will never forget when he was asked about his thoughts on Koke one year. Koke had no goals or assists at the stage of the season and scholes says 'great player, scores goals, assists goals' .... Idiot.
@@AnonymousSuperTuber shut up
@@ilovevar9454 hit a nerve ?
Scholes has had everything good since he was a teenager id say it was a shock to the system when everything wasnt where it was suppose to be
Great players are often poor managers.
4:12 facts 👏
Top man standing up for what he believes in no ones gets told how to do their job he deserved more respect
"Basically there was no salmon or caviar on the lunch menu mate, so I was like bollocks to this"...
He let his home-town down just like he let his country down.
@@rassyconkerhead5548 😂😂😂😁
Respectable and honest he properly new the job would be tuff but couldn’t help it as he said he’s a local lad and mabe thought he could help his team
"tuff"
This shows how different management is to playing! Scholes is my favourite player of all time but as one can understand Management is so much more challenging.
What manager wouldn’t walk away from a job where the owner is trying to tell him who to pick or who to drop. Fair play to him.
McManaman was completely backing Scholes through this, thought that was quite nice
Then Scholes had to keep correcting him which I thought was funny.
It's really out of order to describe L2 players as a really low level. These are very hard working, skillful professionals who were rightly defended by Scholes.
Scholes defending them by saying watching L2 matches are boring.
@@Blooming.92 Pretty sure he said spending entire afternoons watching footage of other league 2 teams is boring, and he's probably right
They are low level pros get over it
@@mayolicious69 in another words, he saying L2 players are boring, low level, period. Thats how he defending this players.
I think he is trying to say keep watching videos, to figure out how to break down teams can be boring, most sport people are more action, less thinking about tactics, tactics are provided by managers. Usually people good at tactics aren't that good footballers, God is fair
He has the charisma and social skills of a raw turnip. Completely unsuited to both punditry and management.
Why a raw turnip? Do cooked turnips have a bit more about them?
Ryan blob totally agree- he should coach youth players as I think he could offer a lot - quality player skills and good at reading the game mentally.
He isn’t suited to management, controlling a room, conference or TV punditry
Love the fact that Mac and Bilz are doing their best to keep Scholesy out the fire but he is having none of it.
Scholesy. They just don't make em' like him anymore.
Paul Scholes. He scores goals.
This is the most smiles i seen paul throw.
He realised its easier to sit in a studio criticising managers than actually being one
Paul is a solid man.
Paul Scholes hasn't stopped running his mouth since retiring. So much for the quiet humble guy the media have made him out to be.
Correct, and almost every comment he makes is a negative one, very rarely does does he have anything positive to say.
@@mikeede49 Well United have been terrible since Fergie left there hasn't generally been anything positive to say. I'd rather he was honest & said it as it is then try and sugar coat it.
I can confirm that Peter Clarke is an absolute legend.
Taking over oldham with no experience was always a bit of a gamble
ha good one
He didn't want to tarnish his managerial record before it started, 1 win in 7, he thought f*** this I'm off.
It had nothing to do with that
I'm from Oldham not surprised he left the team is shocking
Paul Scholes is good at speaking ☺️☺️
Paul Scholes has earned the right. He's been the greatest midfielder in the modern era, he tried and failed at management, he can have opinions about managers because he's played under the greatest, he can sit in a warm studio if he wants. His career and trophies has earned him that right.
He’s also one of the worst pundits I’ve ever heard
@@camus945 I didn't he was a good pundit.
or a bad one
That was an honest interview, he didn't blame Oldham players at all, just facilities and external influences.
He was man enough to say he was inadequate in areas.
From the interview I don't think he had the hunger to succeed.
Went to all his matches at Oldham I have a season ticket there and they were in a good run of form when he took over and they he got 1 win in 7 when he left they won 3 on the bounce he made them play negative football by starting fast getting a goal and then parking the bus for the next 80 minutes which doesn’t work at all it’s nothing to do with the chair man he’s just a poor manager
Parking the bus lol. He was mourhino's no.1 hater.
exactly; but carry on blaming the plumbing though....because that fools everyone
Roy Keane exposed Paul Scholes years back stating how Scholes use to get away with not giving interviews during his playing days by telling people how he's very shy and people accepted it but then became a pundit immediately after he retired. Excuses and now more excuses after his managerial failure. Zzz
100% , He clearly needed to make money after playing so suddenly had a voice , thought that was strange too.
@@RandomVideosFirst Needed money?? Not sure about that one
@@hustleup3840he bets big ...on bingo
I also thought him moving into TV work was odd. He's not exactly playing to his strengths. He has no charisma and looks visibly uncomfortable most of the time. He should have put his voice to better use, reading audio books for people with insomnia.
@@stefan2005stefan And scratchcards.
Imagine Paul managing Oldham with competent ownership,be great to see the owls back in the big time... even the championship would be amazing
seems like most people here DID NOT listen to what he said. People above him told him which players to use. OF COURSE he left.
That's part of the issues managers deal with and not run from
Easy way out
@@Murtydaking why should his reputation suffer from others decisions? It's not like he was going to receive a multimillion pound payout if he stayed on like most elite managers!!! He did what was best for him and the club he loves!!!!
How is a manager supposed to win games if he can't even use the players he wants to use?
That's his fault, never sign up for a job before knowing the terms.
before saying anything he is legend many people can only talk in studios but hes real legend massive respect
"they were there until 2pm on the training pitch, I feel sorry for footballers having to work on those conditions" - Paul Scholes 2020
Here's me still working past 6 everyday
Athletes in any sport - Swimming, boxing, football, whatever it is. They don't seem to train 8 hours a day. If it made them better they would, but it would just wear them out and injure them.
Jose: *he doesn't understand the traditions of the club*
*smirk*
Bilic is sitting there thinking "this guy is a joke"
S Smart I swear bilic was a decent manager in his first season at West Ham
Did well for Croatia too and doing a good job at West Brom
Bilic couldn't hold Scholes jock strap
@@Adam-cj2jg Bilic is a top manager and Scholes failed at the lowest level of professional football in England.
El Pato he's not a top manager, a decent one yeah. Scholes was one of the best midfielders of all time
Bloody gravy train...straight back on tv. Scholes incredibly naive
Scholes...the humble genius.
As a Liverpool fan, I've always liked him, he's so honest and down to earth
Prefer Roy Keane over scholes all day long. Keane is honest and will give it to real, this guy seems like a liar. Wolf in sheep’s clothing
I'm completely the same. I feel like he's not biased at all.
@@eldio2124 I prefer Scholes personally.
Respect to him knowing he should of left once he was being told what todo and having his job taken away from him
Should have invited jose for the program.... blockbuster material !
Classy dude is Scholes 👍
Scholes isn’t the greatest talker/communicator - which u need to be a good manager
rubbish he communicates really well .
@@WizzerMedia no he isn't he's miserable all the time with no enthusiasm for anything. Nobody wants to listen to that
Not all great players can manage. Scholes may not be as critical of gaffers in the PL from now on. Macca could use a brush with reality too.
#PunditsAreCrapManagers
I know the Oldham situation was a farce. But what positives was there to say about Jose at the end of his run. He was asked to give his views and was honest. I don’t get why he gets such huge stick for stating the obvious about things been poor at the time
Scholes really does talk rubbish. Absolutely not made for management.
"I found watching opposition game tape very boring"
Oldman has been a shitshow for 4 years now I'm not surprised he left its the club not him
Scholes talks sense.....level headed comments
Scholesy: middle of the pitch not middle management
He should read the great Bill Shankleys comments about when he first arrived at Anfield ... Oldham Athletics sounds like heaven :)
Scholes turned his back international football when England needed him. Never respected him since then
....when England needed him on the left wing?
DisobeyToday scholes has even said he never minded playing on the left, he was very successful with United when played in that position
@@disobeytoday4685 so what. rooney played out of position too
@@seanalexander9967 - Don't forget Scholes also said the England squad was compromised by fierce club loyalties.
The F.A. and the management staff should have never let that happen. They are the ones who let England down.
@@t8506 - Rooney was a special case. He could play in goal.
Also, he wasn't a loyal Manc. He was friends with Gerrard.
Such a short tenure, what are the odds? That's what Paul Scholes asked, boom boom!
They wouldnt go home. They were still here at 2:30pm! Yes, he said 2:30!!!!! Does he know how that sounds to the rest of us?
Half past 3
@@l00n4tic9 lol
Tooth hurty!
Paul Scholes makes David Brent look like a managerial genius.
Look at him trying to justify and convince everyone it wasn't his fault. Even Slaven and Macca are embarassed for him, trying to offer up petty excuses.
Excellent player in his prime, but always quiet, inarticulate, no charisma. Never a leader. Keeping your head down and grinding it out on the pitch is not the blueprint for a successful future in management - the only surprise here is how quickly he gave up. No fight.
Yeah he just doesn't seem nuanced enough to be a good man manager. Still would be nice to have him on MY football TH-cam show 🤣
why don't they go and do something else when they retire ? I am a football fan but there is so much more in life..their wealth does not create freedom...that comes through education....he looks lost
Funky Like A Monkey not just excellent in his prime, he was excellent over his career.
Is this available with subtitles?
scholsey looking sharp but unfortunately not sharp enough for Oldham!
Watch this video with subtitles turned on! 😂😂😂
Love the haters commenting here. Coward, Karma, poor manager, pundit joke, blablabla... Lol. 11 Premier League titles, 2 Champions League medals among other things with Manchester United, and he's not allowed to voice out his opinions about his beloved club? Did Gerrard, Lampard, Mourinho, Zidane and the like start their managerial career with a club in the fourth division? People are talking as if they know what really happened behind the scene. It's easy to be a keyboard warrior nowadays, huh? But at least, I can have a good laugh whenever I need to relax. Thanks, guys. Keep on hating.
Lost so much respect for him since he retired and started talking as Mark twain once wrote better to remain silent and be thought of as a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
He's not a fool at all. I find him bang on with everything he says.
Bilic and Mcmanaman try to defend scholes being a piss poor manager
Scholes: that never happened
With all due respect, I wish Steve McManaman would shut up and just let Scholes describe HIS experience
LOL.
Scholes - what a legend - straight into the top 5 of all time always in my book
I wouldn’t go that far
Lolll
Not a man to rest on his laurels and still one of the greatest midfielders ever!!!⚽️⚽️👍
It takes a totally different set of cognitions to coach football compared to playing it. Scholes' being was based on his football ability. Convey those skills to others, communicate and translate for the right outcome is a million miles away from just doing it automatically on the field. Its harder to be a coach than a player and I've done both.
Love Paul Scholes. A great player with United.
When u have the balls everytime to criticise managers who won it all like Mourinho n then uur first job will record of win go down as one of the worst in history
Jose Mourinho loves this video.
Paul "No hot water" Scholes
Not so easy eh scholesy. Easy to sit and judge rather then put on a pair of balls and grind it out.
😨
Lol love how the MSM make excuses for Scholes. He’s great a criticising managers, extremely poor at being one clearly.
He should of had this conversation in person with the bosses at Oldham instead of quitting by text message.. this is probably the first time Oldham have found out his reasons for him wanting to leave..
whats steve mcmanaman pipping up for never managed lol
Isaac Roblett couldn’t have done a worse job than Scholes though
Don’t think they pay him to be a pundit and sit in silence mate.
@@danieljamesmead the segment was about scholes and his experience in management
Isaac Roblett Never lost a game as a manger never even conceded, put some respect on his nawm
Isaac Roblett So he’s only allowed to talk when they’re discussing midfielders who played for Liverpool? Don’t think they pay him just for that mate.
to be fair to scholes... once i was being told what to do and who to play by those above me... id be off too.
they should have kept scholes sweet and let him do whatever he wants... with his contacts he could have got some brilliant players for Oldam, all the young Man United lads coming out the youth set up he could have got on loan.
I think the same thing happened to Gazza at Kettering..shame.
"They only had 'value' tea bags, the milk was often sour and the biscuits were stale. Crappy 'Rich Tea' at best. Never any chocolate digestives. There was just no way I could have worked there for more than a few weeks".
Surely the manager, Scholes of all people, can get some hot water and coffee machines sorted.
Why should he? He has no shares in the club!!!
Great players don’t always make great managers
The lads where brilliant.. err can’t remember anyone 😂😂
A human being will never be perfect.Scholes was a genius player, he used to be one of the best in the world, but clearly he is not that kind of person to be a manager. Every person in life has his own skill, we don't have to be same. Slav. was not as good as Scholes as a player but he had the personality to be a manager that's life.
he looks lost in his own life; none of them have the wit to go off and do something totally different. Never leave the comfortable cult of the ex-professional punditry circuit. This is why I cannot watch Match of the Day, Lineker and his mates with their tired old banter...(yawn.)
Macca backing Scholes there. Top man.
What a top lad
When JH said “why didn’t it work out” I was expecting some explanation about how it takes time to implement ones own footballing style etc. Not scholes mumbling “I wasn’t very good was I”
Even more bizarre is SM trying to make excuses for him throughout - SM felt sorry for him! Scholes gives out enough to other managers; let him squirm and take the rap on his own
Scholesy knows his own mind
Basically, it was not Paul's fault.
Yes, it was. He's not manager material.
Am a oldham lad i loved the club the players that much i left
After 31 days🤣
The comment section is hilarious. 🤣
Regardless of whether he was a good manager or not he didn’t bottle it. From what he’s said he’s been told to play senior players or whatever player by someone in the club. It’s actually strong of him to step down as he didn’t want to be told what to do by others. He’s the manager he chooses the team and if he didn’t feel like he could do what he wanted then there’s no point him being there. Getting a lot of undeserved stick IMO.
Considering how talented Paul was, what really strikes me is how humble he was.
It's a pity he won't buy Oldham instead of the Salford vanity project.
People love to hate. Scholes has made it easy for them with his constant criticism of other managers but if what he says is true, that the owners were commanding that some players shouldnt play I can understand why he quit. A manager needs freedom to make these decisions on his own.
scholes didn't get backed, he's actually suited to be a better coach than lamps/gerrard, he was always better than these two as well, needs to go to a slightly better club imo
DB9 saru Impossible to be successful at Oldham tbh. Scholes deserves a good club
He was never better than the two. More decorated but that's it
How can he be suited to be a better coach anyway? 😂 Makes no sense
@@AbzProductionz1 He was way better than both, lampard is the worse of the 3
Ur deluded. He’s too nice as a gaffer. U can’t get funds at Oldham mate, otherwise Oldham would have been in the premier league. Scholes thought he could walk in and become a legend. I’m pretty sure anyone could raise Oldham up the leagues with a bit of money.
Legend
He probably sent the players to sleep at half time listening to him
They did concede a lot of late goals so maybe
Jose Baxter loves a line
