Timing led Scholes to turn down England
Posted Monday, June 07, 2010 by PA
Paul Scholes could have been tempted out of international retirement had Fabio Capello asked him sooner.
The Manchester United midfielder called time on his England career six years ago and decided against reversing his decision ahead of the World Cup in South Africa, however, the 35-year-old revealed the decision had a lot to do with the timing of the enquiry from England's coach.
He told the Oldham Evening Chronicle: "It's a big decision and I wasn't really given enough time to think about it, so I decided not to take up the offer. If they'd asked me earlier, I probably would have accepted."
