Seeing red

Paul Scholes was sent off 10 times during his career, with nine red cards for Manchester United and one for England. His three most notorious dismissals:

Everton 1-0 Man Utd, Premier League (April 2005): Sent off after receiving a second yellow for a reckless kick on Kevin Kilbane.

Man City 1-0 Man Utd, FA Cup semi-final (April 2011): Terrible wild and high challenge on Pablo Zabaleta.

Man Utd 1-2 Zenit St Petersburg, European Super Cup (August 2008): Emulated Maradona when he punched Wes Brown's cross into the top corner as United chased an equaliser.

And one that got away:

Barcelona 2-0 Man Utd, Champions League final (May 2009): Scholes chops down Sergio Busquets. Somehow he only receives a yellow.
