It’s such sad news that Ray Wilkins has passed https://t.co/985gTLm65K was an honour for me to watch, train and play with him at @ManUtd. Ray played with elegance and desire and was so professional in everything he did.

I first met Ray Wilkins on the England team bus at the 1982 World Cup (remarkably the press pack were given a lift) We sat next together. He discovered I was the youngest hack and promised to look after me. That taught me footballers are human, after all. RIP, matey.

Just finished the absolute worst day to be at work. It's hard to put into words how much of a wonderful man Ray Wilkins was, known him since I was a kid, enjoyed lovely chats at Sky & over the years received many texts with words of encouragement & advice. He’ll be sorely missed

Very lucky to have worked with Ray Wilkins. Impeccable manners, wonderfully kind and sincere with a cheeky wit always lurking underneath.

To his family and friends, the sincerest of condolences.

So sad to hear the news about Ray Wilkins. He lived for and loved football. I was lucky enough to have worked with him and he was always a true gentleman. He will be sorely missed by so many. #RIPRay

Devastated to hear the news that a football legend and my football hero Ray Wilkins has passed away. It was such a pleasure knowing you and my thoughts are with your family at this very difficult time. A real gentleman taken too soon #myhero #chelsealegend
