who can we replace scholes with?
the little magician has got two more years at the most before he becomes a player you can throw on for the last half hour. we need to avoid the mistake we made with keane and sort this one out in good time.
clearly it has to be a class act, with vision and confidence - even arrogance - on the field. it has to be a creative and imaginative player who can chip in with a fair few goals. ideally, i'd say, it should be an english, or thoroughly naturalised, player. and, of course, it needs to be someone we have a chance of getting. my suggestion? there is one player who fits the description, is admired by fergie and has premiership experience. he's also currently not playing as regularly as he would like... this may be controversial...

You might be able to compare the goalscoring part of Cahill's game to Scholes, but he has nothing like the creativity, composure and range of passing that Scholes possesses. Good at making runs into the box and little else.
I don't think we'll find a British replacement for him either. One thing that's always been said about Scholes is that he was very different to the average British player, and the way he plays has much more in common with some of the continental greats. I can't think of another British player that's looked as comfortable on the ball as he has, and his technique has always been peerless. I really think we have to look abroad if we want a similar style of player. |

cole was a wu, btw. i'm surprised no-one pointed out that he isn't even a c/m and tackles even less worse than scholes. |

With the inevitable disclaimer that Scholes is irreplaceable,
I do like Iniesta.
And not only because I've just been watching him. Not that Barca would be likely to let him go. That Diego lad from Werder Bremen is worth keeping an eye on, too. Although I do say that because I've just been watching him. (Oh, and what Borsuk said about what Fuzz said. With an extra or two for good measure.) |

Gago would have been great, but he's off to Madrid. Struggling after that, tbh. |
