Of course no one expects a sensible answer from you, it'll just be more %@#$&!s and smart arse comments whilst you change the subject.
every man should know his limitations

stick to something else, eh

I think most United fans would also prefer to have a fall back option if the junior players fail to make the step up. With the Glazers we have no back up. If the kids are shit, we're £#%&!ed.

if you had the manager's ear then you'd know exactly what his plans are for the "junior players"

but you don't


it's the general attitude of recent times that the only cure is to throw money at it that i have the problem with anyway. if that really is the limit of people's imagination then it's not surprising there's so much shit spoken by supporters about squad-building tbh

Let's hope he gets the send off he deserves at the end of the season.

carrick is supposed to be the new scholes. possebon is a decent player too. obviously gibson will be the first choice though.

Ferguson mentioned in an interview last season that he sees potential for Anderson as a ready-made replacement for Scholes.

on a long term loan I think. Wasn't he back for a couple of reserve games at the end of the season. Looked a prospect before his injury.

Second only to Eric for me.

The finest midfielder of his generation. Has anyone got that list of quotes about Scholes from all the best players in the world?

Pinball wizzard.


Ever since i was a young boy
i always watched football
From glasgow down to brighton
I thought I'd seen it all
But I aint seen nothing like him
nothing comes close at all
that short ginger haired kid
sure is king of them all.

He'll pass the ball through you
The cog of the machine
Feeding both the wingers
Always playing clean
He plays by intuition
The opposition fall
that short ginger haired kid
sure is king of them all.


He's the ginger wizard
There's got to be a twist
A ginger wizard
he takes the £#%&!in piss

How do you think he does it?
(I don't know)
What makes him so good?

He ain't got no distractions
aint had no kiss and tells
doesn't act all flashy
£#%&!ed england off aswell
Always gets a replay
Never tilts at all
that short ginger haired kid
sure is king of them all.

I thought Eric was
The old trafford king
But he just handed
his football crown to him

in any given sat'dee
He will beat the best
His disciples lead him in
And he just does the rest
the crowd wrapped round his fingers
the stretford end in awe
that short ginger haired kid
sure is king of them all

"I am coming to the end of my playing career and I maybe have one year left," the 35-year-old said.

"I have started doing my coaching badges back in England and hopefully one day I will be able to coach kids or coach some kind of team somewhere."

Scholes narrowly missed out on a 10th Premier League champion's medal when Chelsea pipped United to the title last season. But Ferguson believes Scholes still has the quality for another season at the top and the player is under no illusions about the impact the successful Scot has had on his long career.

"He has been great," added Scholes. "It goes without saying what a top manager he has been. The amount of players he has brought through the youth team is great and it gives hope to all the kids in the youth team that if they are good enough he will definitely use them.

"It has just been fantastic working with him and I think there is a good few years left in him yet."

hopefully fergie can convince him to play on.


the finest player i've ever seen, still the class of the premiership in midfield last year.
