Paul Gascoigne hits out at 'sh*t' Premier League players 'on £300k per week' and admits he hates stars who forget about the fans and 'don't really celebrate' goals

Gascoigne spoke to David Seaman on the ex-Arsenal goalkeeper's podcast, Seaman Says, and was asked about the return of the Premier League. The former Tottenham and Rangers star admitted that he pines for his playing days even now, and shared his frustration at overpaid players who refuse to celebrate.

The England legend - who became a household name at Italia '90 - has also revealed that he is a Manchester United fan, and hopes that Erik ten Hag can turn the club's fortunes around this season. United finished eighth last term.

Gascoigne told Seaman Says, sponsored by Betway: "I miss it so much even now, really badly. When I watch a shit player and he's on £300k a week, I think God, almighty!'

"The bit that gets me is that when they score, they don’t really celebrate. They forget that a bloke might take his kids to a match and it’s expensive. You’ve got to pay for travel, food, tickets, and then a player scores and blanks them. I hate that.

"But I’ve been looking forward to this season. I think I'll watch a few more games. I've always been a fan of Man Utd because of Sir Alex Ferguson. When you get that high, you want them to keep on winning all the time, like Jose Mourinho."

The Premier League begins on Friday night with United in action. They face Fulham at Old Trafford, but will have to fare without several key players as Erik ten Hag's injury issues continue.
