An incredible compilation of England legend Paul Gascoigne's performances at Euro 96 has gone viral and he's still the Three Lions' greatest player.

Gascoigne was loved by fans across the country and he had a chance to strut his stuff on home soil during the tournament.

Wembley crowds were left stunned by Gazza's raw talent against some of Europe's elite defences.

Sporting the now iconic bleached hair, Gascoigne scored the wondergoal against Scotland and then performed the dentist's chair celebration to an overjoyed crowd.


England made it all the way to the semi-finals that summer and Geordie hero Gascoigne never looked like breaking a sweat.

He danced around the pitch with a young Alan Shearer ahead of him, who won the Golden Boot that summer thanks to Gascoigne.

Backheels, rabonas, you name it, he did it. It's like watching someone play down the park, not at a major European Championship.

He was slightly past his peak at 29-years-old and it ended up being his final international tournament.

Gascoigne's performances for the national team have seen fans searching for the 'next Gazza' in the current generation of stars.

Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden looks to have taken it one step further by dying his hair a similar shade of blonde.

The 21-year-old is looking to play a key role at Euro 2020 this summer after a strong domestic campaign.

Ahead of England's first Group D game against Croatia on Sunday, he decided to change up his look in a major way.

Foden's barber posted the final results for fans on Instagram and everyone made the same comparison.


When asked about the change in a press conference, Foden said: "I've had the same haircut for ages now. I thought I'd try something new.

"I woke up this morning with a lot of comparisons to Gazza and Eminem, it was my own thing and people have turned it into something else."
