Yeah of course that needs to be factored in, I have, and I still think any version of Paul Scholes trumps a peak Redknapp.You're making the massive mistake of thinking about the players overall in hindsight, as opposed to how they were at that precise point in time.
And Scholes and Beckham weren't ready at that stage.
Redknapp changed the game when he came on v Scotland in 96. It was a real turning point.
Jamie was a painfully average player. Hindsight is 20/20 and at the end of the day England did well, but could have done better.
