He was considered a rather slow but accomplished player with a tremendous grasp of the tactical side of the game. Nicknamed "The General", he played for England 32 times between 1948 and 1953, captaining the side three times, scoring three times and appearing in the 1950 World Cup.

England's World Cup victory at <a href="/wiki/Wembley_Stadium_(1923)" title="Wembley Stadium (1923)">Wembley</a> in 1966 made Ramsey a national hero, though he had his critics, both at the time and since.
