I remember being scared stiff of Big Vida' on his first day at Manchester United. This bloke was fearless... in the football world, having that alter ego is important.
This guy was ridiculous. He would ping a diagonal 50 yards or switch it left and right to ease pressure... Scholesy' was one of the most gifted midfielders of his generation.
Rossi's time in the Premier League was an extremely formative spell of his career, highlighting the importance of these team relationships and experiences.
Reflecting on his time as a young player under Sir Alex Ferguson, Rossi appreciates the lessons learned from interacting with seasoned professionals.
